Is there a way to blacklist the reolink doorbell from constantly saying there is an update when updates through HA don't actually work without doing it manually?

Is there a way to blacklist the reolink doorbell from constantly saying there is...
you can disable the firmware sensor for it
granite shoal
Just disable the firmware entity?
vapid elbow
yup
granite shoal
It will still do it's own auto update via the app or however it normally gets it updates?
Thanks was getting annoying
vapid elbow
yeah, your just disabling home assistants ability to see and act upon the firmware status
granite shoal
There is no way to actually update via home assistant right?
vapid elbow
some devices have the ability to trigger the firmware update from with within home assistant. however I dont know if reolink supports it. I have never seen it pop up for my reolink camera tbh
shelly devices for example can have the update triggered from within HA

I get a popup all the time for the reolink and it is a newer firmware than the app recognize, but it always fails, and says you can download the zip to install manually
vapid elbow
do you have its network connection restricted perhaps?
my reolink is on auto update and i have never had an issue or seen anything pop up in HA
in any case you can hide it in HA. then you can either manually update it or if its working just leave it i guess
granite shoal
no restrictions I know of
vapid elbow
maybe its just a bawked update process. maybe if you manually do it this time then future updates will fire automatically without issue?
