Google Max randomly going into Setup mode

My Google Hub randomly shows Setup on the screen and then it goes back to the regular display. This just started happening. The WiFi is good (no router issues) and nothing has changed. I’ve unplugged the router and I’ve unplugged Google Hub. The problem continues.

Hello @deeaski 

 

Thanks for reaching out to our Nest Community. I apologize for any inconvenience you've experienced controlling your Google Hub Max. Don't worry; I'm happy to assist you with this situation.

 

I know how it feels when something isn’t working the way it should; I'd like to gather some details:

  • Have you tried plugging the device into a different power outlet?
  • When did the issue start?
  • Did you unplug the device, or was there a power outage shortly before you discovered this issue?
  • Is your device fully updated?

In the meantime, you can try these steps:

  • At the back of the display, unplug the power cord and wait 10 seconds, then plug it back in and wait until the screen with the G logo shows up.
  • Repeat step one 10 more times (for a complete total of 11 times).
  • After plugging the power cord back in for the 11th time, wait a few moments for the device to reset.
  • It should announce, “Welcome to Google Home,” to let you know it’s ready to set up.

 

Feel free to keep us posted; I'm here to find a solution for this situation.

Kind regards,

 

 

Douglas.
