How many months does it take for a HomePod Mini to calibrate?

Once upon a time, my HomePod Mini worked fine. It communicated well with my so-called 'smart plugs' which are nothing of the sort, and upon one of the iOS updates, it calibrated for both temperature and humidity. Now it only functions as Siri input device and a very expensive bluetooth speaker. I've given up trying to use it as a HomeKit home hub, but now after resets, several calls to Apple, and a trip to an Apple Store, it is still calibrating to set temperature and humidity.

My question is: how many months does it take to calibrate?

It shouldn’t take this long. I suggest you submit feedback so they might work on a fix for iOS 17 (later in the fall)

Feedback - HomePod - Apple

Have you updated all software on HomePods and the iPhone or device used to set it up?
When you “Reset” it, did you do a proper hard reset by pressing the top? Not just the removal method. Or if you have a Mac you can restore it on that by plugging it into the Mac. * It will flash orange during this.
