There is nothing wrong. This is a result of Android. When you open the device in Things, all you have to do is swipe down on your screen and the device info will load.
Do a search on this topic and enter spinning circle and you can see every single post about this functionality and what the issue is:
When I swipped down on my android screen as the blue circle was spinning, nothing loaded when I swipped the notifications back up again.
Ah, swipping down within the app. I see the rest now but the blue circle is still spinning below it.
Where in the app do I specify what the ECO mode temperatures are and how do I set it to go into ECO mode automatically when I leave and go back to the last temperature set when I arrive?
Thank you!
Perform the search I referenced and you will see when and how to get rid of blue circle. You can load device once after restarting app and there is a large message that explains it when you load the device the first time. Can’t miss it.
As for Number 2 the ECO temps are defined by you on the Nest Thermostat itself. You don’t set the temps from NST Manager. You can place the device into ECO Mode via NST Manager. Read the docs on how to define a schedule for your thermostat:
Hello all,
I have just got through installing everything to get my 3 Protects to interact with SmartThings, and I’m having a huge let down right now. Everything installed and appears to work. I can see my Protects in the Things list, but they ALWAYS say “Clear.” I can open each thing in the ST app and view most it sometimes…even though you can only view it once per time running the app…There is nothing I can do to make ST see that there is smoke. When I cause any of my Protects to go into alarm using simulated smoke, all of the other Protects go into alarm, and the Nest app promptly alerts me.
Now, I know of the disclaimer that states that the ST Protect integration through NST Manager is not real time. But, at what point does it serve it’s purpose? The only thing I am trying to accomplish is to use the detection of smoke to trigger lighting through SHM or CoRE, but if the Protect thing never shows as a detected state…nothing will ever work.
I went through the install process cleanly 3 times today. I followed all instructions regarding the Nest Developers account and OAuth.
The only thing other anomaly so far is that the “Power Type” shows “Null” under the device.
Has anyone here actually tested the functionality of this? As in…an actual smoke event showing in ST?
What could I be doing wrong?
THank you so much it seems it is working now. Do you know if there is anyway that when the temperature reaches to “x” F to turn off the the nest? I saw there is an option that says Auto but i don’t see that Auto option on the nest to check what it does once is in Auto.
Thank you again for all your help and your prompt response.
Auto (NST Manager) = Heat / Cool (Nest)
That’s for the developers @jkp. No time to troubleshoot this one. 
Or you can help Shane and troubleshoot it with him. Also see if the simulated function in NST Manager under “Tap to modify devices” (scroll to bottom) works.
Are you referring to the “Nest Protect Alarm Simulation” under Device Selection? If so…that doesn’t work either. When I tap it, the page that shows says “Something’s Wrong” “We can’t load your screen right now.”
What client do you use? Android or iOS?
There seems to be a lot of platform issues lately that are breaking stuff
I’m on Android.
I just got home and validated the Nest Protect Alarm Simulation on Android.
I get the same result:
I had Live Logging going and nothing is recorded in the Nest Manager or Protect Logs. I turned on the Web Diagnostics page as well and don’t see anything logged in there either.
I am able to duplicate this and will have a fix out this afternoon
I am grateful to anyone that releases anything to improve the SmartThings environment. I hope you can get this fixed, so I actually experience this intregration as you intended. Thanks!
The bottom line with the Nest Protect integration does come down to a speedy response though. If it takes to long to show in ST, I can’t really think of a reason to mess with it. What has the average delay time been for NST Manager to show a Protect actuation when it is working properly?
Folks, I am wondering if it is possible to create an event that will trigger a notification. Here’s the scenario…
I have a home with HVAC on a Nest thermostat.
I have a whole house fan.
This is a vacation home, so we are not there all the time.
I want to poll the temp. outside (via local weather station, virtual temp, etc.) and compare to the house temp (via nest thermostat) so that I can trigger a push notification that says something like “It is now cooler outside, turn on your whole house fan”.
I do not want to automate this (yet) because I haven’t A) figured out how to wire the fan correctly (2 speed fan with timer) B) Since I’m only there primarily on weekends, I don’t need to manage the house temp when I’m not there. It’s doesn’t get critically hot, just uncomfortable.
Thanks for all the help! NST Manager FTW!!! 
So…during the battle, it was mentioned that NST Manager can be set to poll more often? Where can this be found?
you could do this with webCoRE. Search for webcore and see their forum
