Chromecast gen 2

JörgenS — Mon, 10 Mar 2025 17:44:09 GMT

Suddenly Our Chromecast gen 2 does not work anymore - not able to cast anything. Tried te reset Chromecast, uninstajj/reinstall Google home, delet and creating new room. Some minutes ago, I read in a paper that it is an issue with Google, and an expired (10 yr) certificate for gen 2. Anybody knows more? And are Google going to solve this problem?

Sounds like a similar problem to me. Seems there was an update yesterday and since then Chromecast stopped working. At first there was an error that said "cannot verify device". Now, when I try and setup the device again, it cannot be found.

I also noticed a few updates for Google apps on my android device. Google, Google TV and Google Maps all had updates. The Google app doesn't want to complete that update. I'm not sure if it's related but thought I'd mention it here.

Same. I did the reset like everytime there's been an issue.
Was not expecting google to send me an email to tell me "we f**ked up do not reset your device."

That is helpful. Wish Google had said something BEFORE I factory reset my device. I guess for now, we wait.

Hey Google, even if you decide to stop supporting older gen products, please DO NOT stop them from functioning at all. Some customers are happy to live with older products. Not everything needs to be continuously updated. As the saying goes, "If it ain't broke, don't fix it."

Same issue here. Standard operating procedure with Chromecast when not working is: reset the thing. So I think most of the people with issues have already reset the device.

I stumbled on information about this problem by chance. How will we be notified if a solution is available?

Lucky for me I had a spare one that is now installed and working...

I installed a spare as well, which I think I have not factory reset. I'll check it later and see if it works.

Hopefully Google will explain how to get factory reset units operational again.

I have 2 gen 2 units- neither are able to stream. I have done the factory reset on one but not the other.... Is there a way to get the non- reset Chromecast to work?

Acredito que o Google desativou os chromecast, assisti os vídeos nos YouTube recente falando sobre.

Coloca " meu crhomocash parou de funcionar "

Any update on solutions?

Hey Google, what about fixing this problem ASAP and stop giving a *** about your customers. You better fix this now cause I'm about to stop buying any of your product. You probably don't give a *** about that too, but what the hell can I do?
