My Google home mini speaker (2nd gen I think) is no longer turning on. Nothing has changed on my side. It sits on a table all by itself and just suddenly stopped working. I've tried reboot, the reset, it says it's not connected and is offline in Google home..wifi is the same, Bluetooth turned on. We use this to play music from Spotify and really missing out on our morning dance sessions (my toddler and I). I even tried the unplug wait ten seconds, ten times suggestion I found on another post. Is there anything else I can do? Would be a shame to throw it out, so wasteful. I've only had it for 6 months.

Hey Juni,
Thanks for getting back to me quickly. I tried the 20 second idea, no lights. Unfortunately, this is my only speaker so no there cord. Any other ideas? Maybe it's still under warranty but I bought it in the USA and live in Czech Republic.

Hey Juni,
I did find another power plug that fits, and viola it works. Unfortunately the cord is tiny and is US style plug so it needs a converter which is just too much to set up and keep plugged in for this speaker setup. Any chance google would send me a new power adapter? And if not, what is this specific type called? I know there are different sizes of the other end of the cord (opposite the outlet side) and don't want to buy the wrong one.

Hi Alkubik,
We wish we can send you one, however, we can only replace the device in supported countries where Google Nest Mini is released. As a workaround, you can try checking your local electronic stores if they carry the same cable with the same specs for the Nest Mini.
You might want to check this link for more info.
Best,

I have a similar problem, one of my minis has apparently died, cant reboot, cant factory reset, have tried different cable as well.

Hello claireb707,
We're sorry for that and that certainly hasn't been easy for you. When you plug in your Google Nest Mini, are you seeing any lights on it? Also, when and where did you purchase your Nest Mini?
Regards,
Alex

Initially seeing 2 white, then 4 white lights but then nothing.
Can't remember when it was purchased but this one has been replaced once when it died after a firmware update 3 years (almost exactly) ago. Mine is a home mini though not a nest mini
