Nest displaying chinese writing and cant change

Frankie_T — Thu, 13 Oct 2022 03:32:52 GMT

Hi.

We had a conversation at dinner and one of us said 'Speak Chinese' to our google max. Since then its displaying sokme fields in the home screen in chinese (eg forcast says light rain showers but the bottom of the panel is in chinese).

We have 6 non-max hubs and this is happening to all of them as well.

I checked language settings and there is no other command that would have done this....

Anyone have any ideas?

Hi Frankie_T,

I know how it feels when something isn’t working as it should, let’s get this resolved. Since you have checked the language setting try to reboot your Nest Hub Max to refresh the device.

Looking forward to your feedback.

Best,
Juni

I didnt, but just saw it now. Thanks both of you.

In the end I fixed it not by a language change as that didnt work - even changing out from english and back did not work as the changes did not propogate - but by a full factory reset.

Its a bit frustrating as just saying 'translate chinese' to the google home max kicked this problem off and it only happened with the google hubs (not the max) - a idle sentence said should not start a problem only fixable due to a factory reset - in any event Im reseting and fixing them one by one (I still have a couple left to do).

Hi folks,

@Juni, @Muddi, @Jake, thanks for the help.

@DarlaBaker, I wanted to follow up and see if you are still in need of any help. Have you had the chance to try the suggestion above like the factory reset? If yes, how is it?

Thanks,
