I have the same problem, I had to make a huge correction on the temperature.
Then it was ok, but very often I get total wrong readings +64 celcius etc.

I have the same problem again too, but I didn't update to that version yet
So I don't think the new version is the problem.

It start to be a problem for me as all my house cooling is based on the outside temp sensor

Well, this may be the reason why your iDoorSensor sometimes sends erroneous measurements. The iDoorSensor is probably not intended to be used outdoors. Even it's manual states the following:
*Do not expose this product to excessive heat or moisture. *Prevent long term exposure to direct sunlight.
*Operating humidity: 30% to 80%
*Operating temperature: 0 to 50 degrees celsius.
The Zipabox simply displays numbers reported by the sensors. It doesn't alter the reported numbers in any way. Maybe you should take a look at some alternative dedicated temperature sensors that are rated for outdoor usage.
The iDoorSensor is a door/windows sensor primarily, it's inbuilt temperature sensor is just added value.
The Aeon MultiSensor or the Everspring HSM-100 multisensor might be more suitable for your needs.

the sensor is located in a dry location out of direct sun contact.
what
I don't understand is each time I contact support the problem is fixed
...and when a new release will appear ...the problem is back again.
could you explain ?
