How did you get to the point where you are?
Did you change your Wi-Fi network? If so, you should have removed the Nest Hub Max from your Google Home app first (while still on the old Wi-Fi network) and then did a factory reset.(https://support.google.com/googlenest/answer/7170507?hl=en#zippy=%2Cif-your-speaker-or-display-is-cu...)
Google Nest claims you should still be able to do a factory reset to get going out of your predicament, but there are posts in this forum saying otherwise.
When you do the factory reset, does the Max say it is resetting?
Some posts in this forum have this workaround for when a Nest Hub Max needs further resetting; I have no idea whether it's helpful; I'm just passing it on:

This worked!! Absolute legend! Shame I threw it at the ground and broke the charging cable before this 😂

Hey there,
Happy to hear that those steps provided by @Bellyboy work for you! Also, thanks to @MplsCustomer for helping. It looks like we can consider this one complete, so I will lock the thread shortly unless I can help out with anything else.
Cheers,

You need to delete the device off your old phone. Click on device, settings then remove this device.
