Can you check your actual furnace and see what it's connected to? the colors on mine didn't coordinate properly either and I had to match on the actual furnace
If I was to guess though, it would probably be W as your C is blue

yup, best bet is to pop open your furnace and see where they connect on your control board. always flip the breaker off before you do that just to be safe.
So it seems I have a furnace control board that is between the thermostat and furnace. Guess I gotta give up until I find some expert help
Hard to tell cuz of the angle, but seems like the black wire is W on that Emerson device so probably should go to W on the Lyric
assuming the (picture) right side goes upstairs, black goes into W based on your potato quality picture

Bump.
Are yours working? Mine is "working" but dropped Wi-Fi connection and I can't get it back online.
Tech support has huge wait times so it's making me think there is a more global glitch with them.
mine is connected but I had to re-add it to my wifi a couple of days ago, all of a sudden it went offline for some reason.
but I had other IOT devices that disconnected from my wifi too at the same time.
Same, been on and off for months. Is it the unit/app? Everything else seem to work fine in the household other than this. Bought another honeywell unit and had the same issue. So i returned that one and reinstalled the T5, worked for a few days and it's now offline again.
The T5 is just crappy... I constantly get alerts that the device is having trouble communicating so I basically just set it and forget it, don't use the geofencing or schedules anymore

The trouble shooting indicates two methods whereby I need to touch the main temp on the screen for 5 sec to trigger the T5 into whatever mode I need to reset the wifi.
Nothing happens when I touch the screen for 5 seconds, 10s, 20s, etc.
It's this happening for y'all?

I tested mine, it goes into some kind of setup mode and appears as a wireless network on my phone I can connect to

Yeah, I had to reset mine yesterday. Pressing center for a few seconds did what it was supposed to do for me.
Ours hasn't dropped connection very often, but does occasionally.
The T5 is a complete piece of shit. Definitely is going to make me think twice about buying another Honeywell t-stat in the future.
I found that making sure my Wifi has two split dedicated 2.4 and 5 networks helped a lot with stability, along with a lot of other smart devices that are 2.4 only.
I should probably get around to finally installing mine.

Well imagine if instead of writing that letter to the editor, she just posts on a car forum for car enthusiasts. That's Kritafo.
Mine is fixed, now.
I got through to their tech support chat thing and they guy asked me to unplug it, give him its MAC address and plug it back in.
That immediately reconnected it to my network so I didn't have to reset it, or anything.
While I had reset my modem/router a few times, I was hesitant to unplug it during the holidays with some cold weather because I needed assurance I'd still have a furnace controller.
