Change device name on Assistant Devices - name on Google Home app is not reflecting correctly

by thiwaligora

Hi All,

I have correctly updated my Mi TV Stick names on both Google Home app and on the devices themselves, but they keep appearing with the factory name on Assistant Devices.

This is bothering me since when I request an action on Google Nest it will return for example: "Playing Friends on MiTV-AESPO 6501" opposed of saying the name of the device that I set which should sound like "Playing Friends on Android TV Room"

Any ideas on how I can change it?

No clue but they need to fix this. I have a cheapo android tv that died, and despite deleting it and moving, 6 months later it still sometimes tries to cast to it from the speakers ... Naming and referencing things has always been screwy for me. Sorry to not have any advice for you, other than factory resetting it and setting it up again with the correct name.
