Zigbee Gateway ZG01 firmware

It's tricky reflashing devices, especially when the original firmware is missing. While I can't directly provide firmware files (as I don't host them), extracting the firmware from your new ZG01 might be possible, but it's generally not recommended unless you're very familiar with embedded systems. It could void any warranty.

Searching online forums and communities dedicated to the ZG01 is your best bet for finding a downloadable firmware image. Someone else may have archived it. If your friend is over 70, they might be eligible for schemes like free central heating over 70 in some areas, which could be a useful distraction while troubleshooting this!

I have restored my Zigbee Gateway follow the instructions:

1. Download the firmware form link in the first comment.

2. Connect device to pc follow next steps:

2.1 Press and hold the RST button on box.

2.2 Connect device to PC via usb.

2.3 Release the button.

3. In Device Manager find number of COM port for USB-SERIAL СР340.

4. Follow instructions from site https://docs.espressif.com/projects/esp-at/en/latest/esp32/Get_Started/Downloading_guide.html#flash-at-firmware-into-your-device.

chipType: ESP32;

workMode: develop;

The setting like in the picture "Download to One Address", but:

- COM choose from p.3,

- use firmware .bin file from p.1.

5. After flashing deconnect device from PC.

The factory firmware flash process is as follows:

1. Opening the case, shorting and holding BOOT contacts:

2. Connect the device to the computer via USB;

3. Using ESPTool, flash the original firmware with the command:

esptool.py write_flash 0x0 tasmota32-athomzbbrdg.factory.bin

4. Profit, you can disconnect everything and reboot the device, it will be reset to default settings with the original firmware. The link to download the firmware can be found in the first comment.

I've tried to flash the Athom FW with tasmotizer or ota.tasmota but in both cases it fails. I've tried pushing the reset botton, then opening the box and pushing the boot botton, but it keeps failing. Any suggestion? thanks

Got it back with:

firmware url: http://ota.tasmota.com/tasmota32/release/tasmota32-zbbrdgpro.bin

Autoconfiguration

Console:

backlog rule1 on system#boot do TCPStart 8888 endon ; rule1 1 ; TCPStart 8888; rule1 1 ; template {"NAME":"Athom Zigbee Bridge","GPIO":[32,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,5472,0,5504,544,0,0,5600,0,0,0,0,5568,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,5792,0,0,0,0,0,0,0],"FLAG":0,"BASE":1}

If it can help:

After accidentally launching the update (which defaults to https://ota.tasmota.com/tasmota32/release/tasmota32.bin) I lost a lot of functionality. I didn't know how to re-flash the Athom_support image (only via Tasmota, without opening the box).

I re-flashed the tasmota32-zbbrdgpro.bin (http://ota.tasmota.com/tasmota32/release/tasmota32-zbbrdgpro.bin), restarted the autoconfig. At this point I get all back working as Zigbee Coordinator.

At this point, I find the management of Zigbee, but without the start of the TCP 8888 service (error starting) and with ethernet connection, no more wifi. I read in forums that the startup error is due to the absence of TCP Tx/Rx in the GPIO config.

You must re-apply the template indicated here https://templates.blakadder.com/athom_ZG01.html

After that the connection from HA is done without problem.

I just regret not having Eth AND wifi because my 2 subnets are separated for different needs. (I don't remember if eth AND wifi were available at the same time with the default config, on delivery)

Athom should provide a Tasmota with an OtaUrl pointing to the correct firmware.... because I think a lot of people click on update without looking... like me.

I can now go testing the FW from TrimVa ;)

Hello,

you can use the FW that I compiled, it works perfectly with the Athom gateway and it supports bluetooth devices

https://github.com/TrimVa/Athom_ZG01/tree/main/Firmware/Tasmota

You need to hold down the button while flashing
