Version 1.1.16 does not work in Home Assistant 2025.1.0

[z-oo-m]

SmartThings Custom integration, the latest version 1.1.16, was working fine until the latest HA 2024 version (2024.12.5). After upgrading Home Assistant to 2025.1.0, the integration fails to start with the following error message:

Setup failed for custom integration 'smartthings': Unable to import component: cannot import name 'ELECTRIC_POTENTIAL_VOLT' from 'homeassistant.const' (/usr/src/homeassistant/homeassistant/const.py)

This might be possibly resolved by pull request #114 where the author replaced ELECTRIC_POTENTIAL_VOLT with UnitOfElectricPotential along with many other changes/improvements.

yes not workin the same error

[sergiograndini]

same here.

I did a small test with the pull request #114 - I took all 6 modified files (binary_sensor.py, climate.py, const.py, cover.py, fan.py, sensor.py) and replaced them in my HA installation in /homeassistant/custom_components/smartthings/.

I can report that the SmartThings Custom integration now starts without any errors and all previous settings are left intact. There are still some warnings in the Logs about constants that will be deprecated in HA in the future, but the integration works. I only have Samsung WindFree A/C units, so can only report on that. Anyone who doesn't want to wait for the fix/pull request merge can do the same.

Can you explain how did you replace the files? Tks

Just a note: This integration stopped working after the 2025 update. I decided to delete the custom integration and opt for the vanilla one, which is functional. However, I created a new token and deleted my old ones, only to discover that since January, smartthings tokens only last for 24 hours.

So the integration will only work for 24h? I don't understand. Aside from this problem, how do you feel with the standard? Would it work well? Did you find a solution for the tokens of only 24h?

Just for reference, here's the notification thread smartthings posted in their community site about the change to a 24 hours expiration for Personal Access Tokens:

[thekoma]

Fixed in latest release ! Thanks @veista

[Berteko]

Hi Thekoma, can you give details on what to do so that this integration could work as it used to? Thanks

[mrbrunopardal]

Its already fixed @Berteko, just update it. However, my HA cant turn on or off my AC units via node red/Automations. Seems like the Climate turn off/on services just gone.

[Berteko]

Many thanks thekoma and mrbrunopardal!
