Nest Doorbell Error: Unable to start device pairing, configuration not available.

Greetings! I'm getting this error when I try to add the Nest Battery Doorbell to my Google Home app (on a Samsung phone running Android): 

 

Error: Unable to start device pairing. Configuration not available.

 

I Googled it, and found a Thermostat forum post with a similar problem, so I restarted my phone and quit all the applications/reopened Google Home. This did not fix it. 

How should I proceed?

Hello, 

The problem was that I had purchased a wired doorbell, not wireless. This was entirely a problem of User  Error. 

I'm sorry for not coming back to update this page about it! Cheers.
