Thank you so much finally I fix the thermostat, I was so sick and tired of the nest doing whatever he wants...🥳

Thank you! This thing was fucking driving me crazy! It was actually costing me more money because it would let the house freeze and then it would take a couple hours to heat up.

Dude...you have SAVED me from pulling all of my hair out. I have tried what I thought was everything to get this to a fixed temperature. Now that I see all the steps, it makes so much sense. I could never get it to STAY. THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!!!

Thank you, thank you, a thousand times thank you!! We're very grateful to you for moving us through his in such a clear, easy-to-follow way. We've been deeply disappointed in the Nest, the expense followed by. many, many headaches. You've saved the day with this one! Much appreciated!

Imagine if they simply just put a “Hold” setting on like a normal thermostat. This thing has definitely reduced the lifespan on my HVAC with all the eco start / stop BS. Absolute garbage product NEST is

You my friend are a life saver. I bought a home with nest and it does have a mind of its own. Thank you for taking through the steps to retrieve my sanity!

Thank you so much! I live way up north and the temps sit below zero for weeks at a time. Nest kept shutting my furnace off after heating for just a few minutes. Then I'd have to mess with the temp setting to get it to kick back on. I was getting worried that the constant on/off with the furnace was going to eventually cause it to fail. That is catastrophic this time of year. You are a lifesaver.

Thank you! Every day it would jump to 72 when I want it to stay 68! It was driving me crazy.

Life saver! Older parents just bought a house with one of these thermostats and none of us kids knew how to change it!🤣

Thank goodness you made this video. Hubby and I were trying to keep the temperature at 70 for the -23 weather we're supposed to experience tomorrow. We go out for two hours, and come back to a 54 degree house. Now we have to wait till midnight and hope it gets warm enough to combat this stupid polar vortex...

Thank You!!!!!! This thermostat was ruining my life. It did whatever it wanted. I woke up sweating in the middle of the night even though I thought I set it to 60. Sometimes Id come from work and the heat was on (I live in Houston) I looked all over the internet for help, including the Google Nest help site and no luck.Was about to rip it out of the wall and replace it with my 1990's old manual spin thermostat when I happened on your amazing on-point video. Your video is fabulous.Thank you!

Thank you for this public service. Nest should take notes from you. I HATE not having a manual on hand. Their engineers do not understand regular people.

Thank you! I'm an EE and NEST stupid. I was just about to pull my NEST off the wall and chuck it. Manual setting is not simple, but you made it possible. All I can say is the NEST dial is pretty...

THANK YOU, SIR! I've worked on, with, and around computers and hi-tech for me entire career, but this stupid thing was driving me crazy. My air-conditioner tech couldn't even sort it out. The gas co. tech said, "It's digital, it's wireless, it has AI learning . . . and it's free!" My model is slightly newer, so some of the nomenclature is different, but it took me all of two minutes to set it to fully manual. Great tutorial!

Looking through all comments and everyone has had the same problem thanks for helping us all out , ...this nest was driving me mad too ..turning on in the night sweating cobs and freezing in the day this thermostat is shit sorry for my expression my old thermostat was great before . technology sometimes is rubbish thanks so much ..your a life saver. From 🇬🇧

Yes!! Thank you for this video!! You saved me from having a mental breakdown bc I searched many videos, instructions and waited for the furnace guy to respond!! Like the other review below my house was so cold and I thought my pipes were going to freeze. Besides this the good thing that came from this is that it reminded me that I needed to renew my home warranty!!

Thank you so much !!!! I was so frustrated and felt like "it" was taking over-- appreciate it !

I’ve been fighting a long winding battle with my nest, being so frustrated and thought that my nest was broken. I live in texas and it gets to 100 degrees and I cannot have my house be at 80 at night! Thank you so much

Thank You! You're the first video I've seen which showed me how to back out of all of these ECO (read temperature out of my control) settings. Living in Florida, all I wanted from day one was to set my thermostat to 75 degrees, and LEAVE IT THERE, day and night. Now I will have that. Thanks again!

Jesus thank you so freaking much!!!! This was driving me crazy because it's so hot here in LA and i would wake up in tye middle of the night and would be sweating because it turned my thermostat to 74 degrees !!!

Simple straight forward instructions. Thanks for the info.

Thank you, this was an excellent step by step guide. You made it so easy to follow you.

Works perfectly as described in the video. I also had to adjust the “Home / Away” assist to off (“Stop Using”) for the Nest to not go off when I left the property.

Thank You. I was so frustrated with the change in temperature all the time. You are awesome. Thank You for taking the time to explain everything.

I had my thermostat on the wall next to the iPhone with your instructions and did it simultaneously with you and it was perfect. So easy finally. Thanks again.

Why would nest chose to make it so hard and unintuitive to set and hold a certin temperature like a regular old thermostat. I will stay away from their products.

Beautiful . Just what I needed. What is so "smart" about a thermostat that ignores me when I turn the dial to set it to a different tempurature? Thank you.

Finally! Been trying to figure this out for months. You’re the man 👍🏻

Thank you that was a perfect step by step process. The thermostat was driving me crazy now I’m a happy camper.

Thank you, the back and forth temps were pissing me off. Everyday I come home it's sitting at almost 80 and takes 2+ hours to cool.

I was able to reset my nest thermostat with your step by step instruction and set my winter setting to 64-74. Hopefully the temperature would stay in that range. Thank you so much!

I wish I had found this video a few months ago. I installed Nest thermostats in our holiday home on the coast which we use occasionally: BIG MISTAKE. Too may times after we left and set the temp i would check it remotely to find the heat or AC on by auto schedule, costing us money. I asked Nest where's the Hold feature and was told there isn't one. Then they gave me the instructions (as in this video) as a work-around. Ridiculous! Why not listen to the customers and add a simple Hold feature? I still have the old thermostats and will replace the Nest if they give me any more aggro.

Life saver!!! Thank you! Nest is so silly. Should have just gone with a good old faithful sketch.

Likewise trying for months! We have beach sun in afternoon and we go to 80...this works and directions are spot on and easy to follow TY

Thankyou so much, Fiancé is deployed and he set everything up in our home. You have been a life saver.... seriously it was stuck on eco mode with it hot As can be in here. Thankyou

Thanks for the info; it was very helpful. NEST needs to work on making this easier with later models!

Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge with us. It would have taken me a while to figure this out!

Thank you so much! Just bought a house with this thing already installed. I kept trying turning on the AC on our move in date but it kept defaulting to off. It drove us all crazy because it was the hottest day of the summer

Used this tutorial again since I moved to a new house and installed the Nest. Thank you!!!

Thank you! I'm new to Nest and just wanted to leave my temp at something that wasn't going to Jack up my electricity but it kept turning the air conditioning on after I turned it off. Thank you!

Thank you very much! Struggled with that for months!

Thankyou for the explanatory video, this helped me a lot.

Thank you very much! I couldn’t wait to get one of these then it was driving me crazy changing the temperature all the time! You’re a lifesaver!

Thank you. That is the most senseless thermostat I've ever seen.

Thank you for this video, it has helped me a lot.

Amazing instructions. Worked perfectly!

Thank you mate, you helped us a lot. Our heating system is brand new and it was not heating enough. Now i have set the thermostat to manual mode thnx to you and bleed couple of radiators, everything seems fine now. Thnx again

Fantastic instruction on how to reset! Thank you many times over!

I’ve done this and still doesn’t work for me... Nest is turning off ac when I’m not home or I’m on the different floor few hours and nest don’t recognize the motion

If I could "like" this video more than once, I would. Thank you so much for taking the time to record and post this!! I followed a link to this video from a Reddit thread about Nest resetting itself at random times, after I had set a temperature manually.

Excellent step by step video. Thank you. Now my house is back to normal!!!

Ugh! THANK YOU!! We're in the middle of a cold snap right now and the damn thing wouldn't heat over about 17/18C (too cold for my liking). SO grateful I found a link to this vid on Reddit.

The fix I’ve been looking for! Thank you!!

That was extremely helpful! Thank you!

Thank you very much because I could not figure this out it was driving me nuts.

Many thanks for this! You saved me a huge amount of time and frustration.

Thank you very much for this helpful video.

Perfect and simple instructions...thank you!!!

Very helpful to help me reset my thermostat. Thank you!

Thank you, the back and forth temps were driving me crazy!

Thank you so much for this, not being able to hold the temperature where I wanted to was driving me crazy!

Thanks so much!! This is seriously really helpful. :)

Thanks!!!! I was at wits end in my new rental home!

Good video, good explanation!

thank you! so nice of you to explain this!

Thank you Thank you!!! I was getting so upset with this thing. Finally I can adjust the temperature the way I want it.

Thanks!! Would never have been able to figure all this out.

Thank you! I was ready to replace my Nest as I couldn’t figure this out!

So many steps! A simple hold or schedule override option like every other thermostat would be so much more intuitive.

What generation Nest is this (1,2, or 3) ? Thanks

100% agree with all the comments - good tutorial for a nest that is overly complicated to remove basic functions! Thank you. What did we do before KZfaq videos?

THANK YOU! The video saved our butt! The builder had some whacked out stuff programed and tha a /c guys were useless!

Thank you so much! This was exactly what I needed.

Thank you so much. This helped us and saved us from throwing the Nest into the ocean.

beautiful! all i want is the remote control feature..the auto learning sucks man...

Thanks for sharing! So far so good!

Thanks. Do the sensors still work when you have it in this mode?

Very helpful! Thanks!

Loved the video!! Great info!

thanks- worked as described

excellent explanation - thank you!

Thanks so much, I hated it having to get warmer before it got to the desired temperature.

Fantastic! Thank you many times over!

Very pleased with this item. Keeps good readings

Thank you so much u r a lifesaver great video u made it so easy!

Very east to follow, Thanks!

Thank you. Prefect display and Workman ship.

You are the man!!! Thank you for this!!!

Thank you!!! Not even Nest Support knows this!

Thank you so much for this video. This thing was running my house

Thanks so much! You are the man!!!

Is there a way to set time on schedule to just "on and off".. .e.g I just want to have mine set to come on every morning at 6am for 30mins..

Great video! No one else had all three steps

thanks a lot

OMG. THANK YOU! Recently moved into an apartment with one of these STUPID thermostats. I thought I was going nuts...... I'd set the temperature & a few minutes later......it was different! WTF?! Thought I was watching too many paranormal episodes! Anyway, while I'm away at work, my dog is still home. I set it at a comfortable temp......This STUPID thing would turn it down to 66! It was f#$king freezing when I got home. Thanks again for your video! Much appreciated!

Thank you very much I greatly appreciate it!

Can I turn the schedule on and off ? Sometimes I want to override the schedule feature but turn it back on in a day or two. I don’t think I can simply do that

Thank you! Very helpful

Thank you. That was very helpful.

Thanks for the info...it was making us crazy at night. Set at 75 and went to bed and then a few hours later it went to 78 which would wake us up.
