I'm glad you got yours working! I think this is Google's way of making
things obsolete as there's no way for me to "activate" this device
because the Device Utility app is not available in the US. Not sure what
to do next but I'll keep trying because...
I have the same issue here and no non-pixel devices. I've had the
speaker for 3 years and somehow only now is this an issue. Google can
you fix this issue or offer a solution?
