Device:
Google Chromecast TV 4K
Issue reference number:
0-8808000033999
Issue:
After updating the operating system to Android 12, the Chromecast 4K device cannot connect to any Bluetooth devices. Infinite pairing. Restarting is not working. The factory reset is not working. Changing the power source is not working. Changing the output device is not working.
I've received a ridiculous response from the Google support team with non-working advice. So, I have replicated this issue on multiple HDMI output devices, including a Philips TV, HUAWEI MateView display, and LED projector, while Chromecast was connected.
Here is a list of the devices that were attempted to connect:
Logitech MX Master 2s(Mouse)
Microsoft Sculpt Comfort(Mouse)
Apple Magic Trackpad V2(Mouse)
Apple Magic Keyboard V2(Keyboard)
Logitech K380(Keyboard)
Bose QuietComfort 45 II(Sound)
Samsung Galaxy Buds Live(Sound)
Technical info:
Android TV OS version: 12
Android TV security patch level: January 1, 2023
Kernel version: 4.9.269
Android TV OS build: STTE.221215.004.A1.9716989

It seems that Google is suggesting that I consider purchasing an alternative TV stick, such as one from Amazon or Apple TV.

Yes, they sent me the same information once again. They recommended me to change the TV, even though my initial message indicated that it doesn't work on any output device, including projectors and laptop displays. This isn't support; it's just one more message to close this inconvenient thread.

Hey there,
I understand. Please reply to their email, as they would have more tools than we would on the forum to look into this. I will keep this thread open for you in case you have questions.
Cheers,
