Hi Ahp, 

Thanks for reaching out to the Google Community Forum. I understand that your Google Nest Mini is not starting up even after the green light appeared. Don’t worry, I’m happy to assist you. 

In this situation, I recommend performing a factory reset; please follow the instructions in this article: Factory reset Google Nest or Home speakers or displays. 

Please let me know if this information is helpful.

Best regards,

Daniel

Thank you so much for keeping me updated. I appreciate that you have taken action by performing this troubleshooting step, so let’s explore more tips.

• Ensure your Google Home Mini (1st gen) is correctly plugged into an outlet.

• Check that the power cord is not damaged.

• Try to use another outlet to isolate the situation and check if the behavior persists.

• Finally, follow the instructions in this outlined article: Issues when you reset your Google speaker. 

Let me know how it goes.
