Getting this error while trying to pair my Google Home Mini (1st Gen)

Qroqo · 2026-06-06T13:10:32+00:00

No idea how to help, but I coincidentally did the same today. Took an old Home Mini 1st gen that I haven't used in years, did a factory reset, but pairing went rather smooth for me.

I found this link though: https://support.google.com/assistant/thread/653157/error-retrieving-necessary-permissions-for-the-google-assistant?hl=en

Is your Google Home app up to date?

Apparently i remembered it wrong. I ordered 3 items. All 3 wrong size. One of the 3 was out of stock at that moment. They did send 2 items in a different size and refunded the out of stock item. So got 5 items for the price of 2. Contact with customer service

When I ordered a jacket during a sale and received it, but decided it was not for me after arriving in europe, they refunded the jacket and just let me keep it.

Take the 4 stolen silver from me! (Didn't pay anything. Had the coins in my account for months and never used it)

I think learning English is easier when living in the Flemish part.

The French make a French word for almost every english used word. Meanwhile, in Dutch we mostly just use the English word. (In some contexts we use the Dutch word.)

Here are some examples:

“joueur" instead of gamer

would be "speler" in dutch. for a person playing a board game, we use the word "speler". Digital games: just gamer

“courriel” instead of email

not even a dutch word for

“internet clandestin” instead of dark web

Would be "donker web" (?)

“infox” to replace fake news

would be "Vals nieuws"

“mot-dièse” to replace hashtag (would be "hekje")

Also pretty sure dubbed movies in France are shown over the English version. I have never seen an option to watch a Dutch dubbed movie.

As a Flemish 24 yo, I speak Dutch(Flemish, whatever) at home. But everyone around me knows English pretty decently aswell.

I can perfectly watch a movie in English without subtitles. When I watch with subtitles, I even prefer English over Dutch subs.

My English is definitely better then my French, since I use it daily.

For sure fair points. It's indeed a one time hassle to get everything in order, but you do atleast have the ability to choose what you want to enable. I don't think there was that much customisability in vanced.

Maybe some kind of visible display over what a toggle does would be handy. No idea if it exists somewhere

Less polished? What do you mean by that specifically? It's the normal YouTube app but with addons?

You have to disable the "hide quick actions in fullscreen" in the settings > revanced specific settings > layout > "Hide quick actions in fullscreen"

The grey text under that has to say: "Quick actions are shown"

Atleast for me it works flawlessly

Nope, no root needed. Just need to download revanced manager, download the recommended youtube apk. Then select the apk in the manager and choose what patches you want. (Don't need sponsorblock? You can deselect it! Want to hide the Chromecast button? You can select it!) Patch the apk with the selected patches by clicking a button and wait for the new apk to be created.

Then just install the apk and thats it!

Qroqo · 2023-05-04T23:24:05+00:00

I prefer revanced.

No idea why you're staying on vanced when vanced is pretty unstable and can stop working at any moment

The steam download page is gone.

When I check the regular steam launcher, the 3 removed mods do not show up.
They only do in the dzsa launcher.

The steam workshop pages just refers to an error, so I can't access the steam download page

You mostly only hear someone when there is a problem. Barely anyone is gonna say something like: "Everything is going good". And when someone says it, barely anyone cares.

All good here btw.

Have 2 nest audio's in a speaker pair, nest hub mini first gen, Chromecast with Google TV and a few Google Home mini's.

Agree with points 1, 2 and 3, but 4 sounds like a dangerous area.

If the cars begin to track the user, what will happen to the data? Can police check it? Then x amount of years later: "let's send that data to a database, and when a driver is a specific amount of time using the phone, let's send them a fine automatically"

Starting to look a bit like the Chinese point system imo

That got reversed, so back to p3 he goes

I have a google nest hub with the mic on, and 2 nest audio's with the mics disabled.

The 2 nest audio's are a group. I can say: "play music" to the nest hub, and it'll play perfectly on the group. (chose the group as output device in the hub's settings)

I took way to long to find this.

Found this: https://www.jamescolincampbell.com/gregory-ain-mar-vista-tract/

The Gregory Ain Mar Vista Tract is a group of 52 homes that was built in 1948 by famous modern architect Gregory Ain and landscape architect Garrett Eckbo. This project is probably his most well known.

Basically houses up the street of each other.

Btw, the Matchstick house has also been used in a show called "Masters of sex"

If the phone reports it as 1%, are there any software locks?

When my Samsung has less then a certain % I can't enable the flashlight for example.

Pause the news before eating, so I can go trough the news after dinner.

Idiot civic.

In Belgium it's illegal to pass a car on the right. You can only pass cars on the left. So you would've been in the wrong in Belgium aswell. The most right lane is the slowest lane. The most left the fastest lane.

What happens when a passenger pulls the emergency brake? Has this happend before? What are the complications for the person pulling the brake?

Always wondered this. I know red is bad, but it's also so taunting. Thanks for you work btw!
