This thread is getting pretty long winded and several issues are starting to blend together.
Delay Issue
The delay issue has a fix but will require a platform release. I thought that this release was going out today but it has been pushed back. The fix is going out with the next platform release and once I know for sure when that is I will try and give another update.
Hue Issue
The hue device type was changed and the icon went from being green while on to blue. This was confusing to our customers and we were able to quickly fix the device type without changes to the platform. If you still have blue icons for your hue bulbs, log out and back into the mobile app.
