Google Nest Audio

My Google nest audio won’t connect to my home app. When plugged in the lights come on and flash back and forth for a minute then shut off. There is no sound from the speaker at all and when shutting the mic off to factory reset the lights do not turn orange (stay white). App cannot locate device.

Hi @RichJ4444

Are you trying to set up the Nest Audio as a new device or did your WiFi change?
Please check out THIS link for the setup support page. And THIS link shows what the lights mean.

If you are trying to set it up with iOS there are some users having issues because of the iCloud private relay feature. 🙂

Dear @RXShorty

The given reset process is the one that brought us to this state.. Unresponsive 😖

Going forward to the troobleshooting solution here was just a waste of time and energy because it just doesnt work !! and answer your thoughts,yes,i ve tried it with a million combinations cause the guide is not clear enough about the exact state of lights when need to be unpluged.

Tried with 4 dimmed lights , 4 full bright lights , 4 blinking lights etc and many,many more variations which i really lost count of over the hours spent on it..

i really do appreciate the your time to read and reply and i thank you for it , but we need to find a solution for the issue.

Hi @Babis_23

Did you tried to set it up like a new device with the Google Home App?

Hi @RXShorty

Thats the problem my dear friend,the device cant be found in order to do the setup.

It is supposed to talk when pluged in to power,it doesnt..

This is what it does.. plug the power cord, 2 dimmed lights turn to 4 dimmed lights turn to 4 bright lights which then turn to 4 moving lights for about a minute,minute & a half and then.. lights off !!!

No talking and device not visible.. to anyone (tried 3 different android phones & 3 different Google Home accs)
