Meteorite (crystal pendant) yldl01yl went offline after firmware update.

Xiaomi has region lock. Items bought in China an only be used on China server. Yeelight, even though it uses same servers, does not have region lock (from Yeelight app). That is why you don’t see them in mihome. Be sure to use same server (preferably china, if you bought items from china)

Hello @dalanik and @rex_yan1,

No idea what actually happened but the device is online right now, it works again.

My light however never went into pulsating mode after I reset it (5 times on/off). There where no lights at all, but the Yeelight app was able to find it again.

Is it normal that my device did not lid up at all during the reset process?

@dalanik thank you very much, information like you provided is essential. Thanks!

For now my problem is solved, thanks!

Hi @Meerdat

How did you manage to contact the lamp again?

I and @davidvenero have two bricked lamps so we are very eager to know how you fixed it!

Both our lamps seem to be 100% unresponsive so we really hope you can help

Best regards, Allan

Hi @Allan_DK ,

did you find any solution? I have also two of the ceiling light Yeelight ylxd01yl and one of them stopped working. I can measure electric power supply on input wires on mother board of the light. I tried also this LED panel and was working in second light. No rection on restart procedure and light is not visible in yeelight app or mihome app. Unfortunately on light was only one year guarantee, bought on gearbest, so their support only to buy new one. I really don’t know if it is hw issue on this mother board (is existing any service manual or drawing?) or it is some sw issue according to discussion above?

Thanks for feedback.

Hi @MaLyCZ

I didn’t find any solution. I gave up and returned the lamp to the seller in Hong Kong (extremely expensive). I cross my fingers I will be reimbursed. All things considered I do not have high hopes.

This is one of the worst buys I have ever done

I deeply regret buying this lamp

I wish you the best of luck!

Please do keep us informed if you find a solution!

Best regards Allan, DK

Hi,

I’m experiencing a similar issue where I cannot update the Yeelight Meteorite light and it is very unresponsive.
From the Yeelight app, I cannot change the ambilight and the app does not know the state of the primary light (it does not know if it is turned on or off and even if the device is powered).
Have anybody else experienced this?

Technical info:

  • Yeelight app version: 2.2.19
  • iOS version: 13.4.1
  • Yeelight Meteorite firmware version: 1.3.2_028 (cannot update to 2.0.6_0042)
  • Yeelight model: yeelight.light.ceiling10

Best regards,
Tobias
Also from Denmark :grinning:

Hi @Tobias-DK

It seems that most - if not all - affected users are on iOS.

Perhaps if you still have connection to the lamp you could try doing the fw update from an Android device.

There is also somekind of lowlevel Android app that is supposed to reset the device somehow.

I ended up loosing all life sign and the lamp was bricked before i could test this myself

Best of luck,

Allan

I have the same problem…

Also iOS?

Hi @Allan_DK,

Thanks for the suggestions, I’ll try to get hold of an Android phone.

I’m currently trying to get the seller to acknowledge the problem but it is apparently a very difficult process… @Allan_DK did you have any luck returning the lamp?

Best regards,
Tobias

@Tobias-DK

Let me put it this way… It was a nightmare - but finally I got a refund via PayPal. TomTop from whom I bought acted like a-holes… I never experienced such bad customer treatment.
They will actually provide you a return address - BUT this address is not valid.

I spend 100s of DKK returning the lamp to a non-existing address

I was (and still is) mad like h…

They will never reply sincerely on your requests… and keep tiring you with auto-replys like: send us a YouTube video and our technincian will look at it (not matter what you ask them about) even if you already did this before. I am 99% sure they will not look at the video… they just try their best making you loose your mind or just give up.

I sincerely do not hope you used this same vendor…

Best of luck

Allan

Hi Louigi

Then it seems the issue isn’t platform dependent…

I wish you the best of luck

I suppose it

Hi @Allan_DK,

That sounds horrible!

I bought it from Banggood but they don’t acknowledge the problem either since my lamps are partially working.

Best regards,
Tobias

@Tobias-DK “Impressive”… partially working … gosh

Håbløst.

Does it work with the dedicated “on off plug”?

Hi @Allan_DK,

Yes, and still no solution from Banggood.

I don’t have the remote for the light but I can turn on and off the light with a normal circuit breaker but still not controllable from the app.

Best regards,
Tobias

I have a similar issue with my pendant lamp. I bought it in March 2019 and could connect it without problems to the German yeelight server. With this I used it without problems for over a year with yeelight scenes, connection to Alexa and also with hass.io. After a firmware update The lamp is constantly shown as offline in the yeelight app. After deleting the lamp in the yeelight app and resetting it, the Yeelight app could not find the lamp any longer. The Mi home app on a chinese server however, can find and connect to the app.
Apparently the firmware update removed the ability to connect it to the German yeelight server. What can I do to fix this?

I think the only solution is to return the lamp. Sorry to bring you the bad news :frowning:

Hi @Allan_DK, I am afraid it is of no real use to you, but maybe it is interesting for other people running in the same problem.
After a firmware update I am able to add the pendant lamp again in the yeelight app on the German server.

I created a specific forum post for that:
