Hi, the Nest installation app says my thermostat is incompatible. I have the older "Nest Thermostat".
As you can see in the photo, my existing thermostat has wires connected to E, Y, G, R, B, and C with a jumper from E to AUX. Any idea why this is not compatible? Or any workarounds? Thanks in advance.
FYI, I have not verified any terminations on the equipment end, but can do that if necessary.

Your thermostat is compatible with any Nest thermostat.
Suggested wiring
White - E to W2 or W (set to aux heat) (Jumper to W2 not needed)
Yellow - Y to Y1 or Y
Red - R to Rc or R
Orange - B to OB or */OB
Brown - C to C
The "or" is for the Google Nest Thermostat
