Google nest wired

Just got a wired doorbell but found out the wiring for the current doorbell is completely messed up. I dont want to purchase all new equipment and install. I saw a few doorbell plugin adapters online, will those work with the Nest wired doorbell. I know I wont have the chime but at least i could record and get phone alerts. Please advise.

You're missing a bit of info. Doorbells come in all kinds of setups. First you'll need to shut the power off to the circuit. Then you'll need to identify what type of circuit you have, like if it's using a transformer, direct, etc. Then, you'll need to figure out what type of wiring you have, some houses have line/load, some are line/load/neutral, some are even line/load/neutral/ground. There could be anything in there. There are plenty of Youtube walkthroughs, but they all say the same thing: if you're not comfortable doing this, call an electrician.
