vera ,the green dead brick
-
hi. my vera just died. i'm changing radios on my mysensors network,from nrf24 to rfm69 and when i connect a new gw with arduino 3.3 volts and new radio, serial port wont detect my gw,so i restart vera. it enters in a restart loop... it already happened a few months after one update, and i recover it by following this steps: http://wiki.mios.com/index.php/Firmware_Flash_VeraLite
but now after flash it with sucess (it says), restart,and no light at all. just flash all lights for a second when plug the power cable and then.... nothing.
no lights ,no response to reset and power in, no response to any ip.
Happend to any of you already? i think its really bricked and i have to move to raspberry and razberry(zwave shield)

@tmaster You'll probably have better luck posting to the Vera forums or sending an email to support@getvera.com.
Also, depending upon your z-wave nodes, you may find that the z-wave shield doesn't work reliably with all nodes because it uses a reverse-engineered protocol with known limitations to avoid licensing issues.

I didn't know about razberry limitations. i only have fibaro 222 modules(windows outside aluminium shutters). And i only want that zwave module.The rest are mysensors sensors. Since i found them ,now i don't change the fact that i know how they work and how to repair it ,against the fact of buy already made and get stuck..like happens with vera know!

Second support,if it won't enters in recover mode(press reset and power it) its dead(defective unit) . Nice term for;buy another.
So i'm configuring Domoticz to give a try with mysensors.
About fibaro zwave devices i'm thinking reverse engenniering vera zwave module and connect it to domoticz. Its that possible?
Vera lite have the z-wave part at one corner of the board. And its a zw0302(3rt geneneration) and an EPROM. If i connect tx,rx,gng and vcc from the chip to raspberry,i have an zwave shield. Or will not work because zwave firmware on the z-wave chip?

@tmaster The OpenHab website has some info about zwave shield(s) and Fibraro device compatibility here https://docs.openhab.org/addons/bindings/zwave1/readme.html#fibaro-door-contact-fgk-101
