Hi all
I recently purchased a second hand nest protect and have been unable to connect to it in the app, I keep get getting a P009(0.80) error. I have tried multiple factory resets, pairing it on a new home and have checked the wifi network but still no luck. I currently have one other nest protect which is connected fine.
Thanks

For what it’s worth, I’m having the same issue today. Have multiple Nest protects. All were working fine. Updated my wifi network name so doing factory reset on Protects in the house. Setup the first one fine. Went to setup second one and it didn’t work (getting same P009(0.80) error). Tried multiple factory resets, reset router, reset app, reset phone. Nothing works. This specific Nest Protect was working on the same router earlier today (before I updated network name). Something strange is going on. Will try to add another one upstairs.
using Google Fiber
2nd gen Nest Protects.

Getting same error on 3rd one I tried to setup. This is extremely frustrating.

Mine also is giving the same error today. I wonder if it is a server issue?

Perhaps. I’ve tried everything else I know to do. Weird that the first one I setup worked fine…a bit slow to “finish” but it worked. Went to 2nd one and that’s when I started getting error. 1st one is still connected. Hoping it’s just a Google Service issue (even though they show all OK).

Exactly what I'm seeing too!

This is the same exact issue I am having today. Looks hoping that a fix will be in place soon.

I fixed the problem for my system. I bought 6 Protects. Day one I installed the first one and it updated its firmware to 3.5.0.3. Day 2 I attempted to install the others (v 3.4.0.6) but none would connect. I tried removing the first one (v3.5) and re-adding it; that always worked, but the others wouldn't connect. I finally removed the first (v3.5) and added some of the older ones (v3.4) and then they all could chain connect.
I did also change some router settings, but they didn't seem to affect it. specifically, turning on IPv6 and multicast.

@Sparebrain your issue mirrors mine completely. Did you ever find a workaround? Mine all seem to be the current firmware so I can't try adding those first.

Same error here, Did anyone succeeded?

I did try all of those steps. See abbreviated first post above.
I have not tried to go through the setup since my last post...but will try again tonight and see if things have changed or if I get the same error. I'll circle back here with any updates. I may also try what @corbind suggested above about removing the first one I connected (it's still connected) and add a different one to see if they all chain connect.

Hi Sparebrain,
I wanted to follow up with you. Were you able to troubleshoot the devices? Let me know if you have any new details, as I want to ensure you are good to go.
Best regards,
Jake

I was finally able to try adding the remaining Nest Protects to my new WiFi network today and everything worked. No P009(0.80) error. What was different this time was that the first one I tried adding was able to use the network information from the first one I added 2-weeks ago. Below is a summary of what I did in case it helps anyone in the future:
My guess is that it just needed time. Perhaps the first NP that I added needed to refresh to the Google Nest servers(?) or somehow otherwise sync with my network in order for the second NP to recognize it and 'borrow' its network settings(?). Who knows...but I have successfully added all other NPs in my home (6 total). All is working as expected at the moment. My advice to anyone else having the same P009(0.80) error after adding their first NP...wait...just let things sit for a while and try again later. For me, that was two weeks...but I hadn't tried again until today so perhaps it doesn't take two weeks for others. Hope the above is helpful to others.
