    If I could like this a billion times I would. I have been dying to be able to double up when paired to my computer, but even when I double up from my phone while my computer is the second device connected it would kick the second speaker off when I start playing from the computer. This worked! Thank you!

    If you can't pair a UE BOOM with a device or can't double up a pair of UE BOOM speakers these TWO things are important and always solve the problem for me.
    1) RESET the the UE BOOM or two UE BOOMs if your doubling up.
    Power on. Press the on/off button and the minus sign button simultaneously. Wait up to ten seconds for the percussive noise which signals a reset. The UE BOOM will power off. You have successfully reset.
    2) Remove the UE BOOM or UE BOOMS from your device. You can do this in the bluetooth preferences however it works with your OS.
    Once your device is clear turn on your UE BOOMs and double up as described in the video above.
    This works for me. Every time.

      I have two boom speakers, identical model and part numbers, only difference is S/N #’s. I reset both of them like you said, and pressed “forget this device” for both from my Bluetooth menu (iPhone 6s plus w/ latest available software). After then competently completing the procedure as described in this video, both Bluetooth button lights on the speakers do not turn to solid non blinking illumination but instead both continue to be rapidly flashing and sound only plays through one speaker. Have attempted multiple times, doesn’t work. All this after downloading a firmware update file from ultimate ears website which doesn’t launch.. only one speaker is able to use mobile app functions, the other says software update is needed, although all they offer is a dead end goose chase with poorly worded instructions and poor webpage functionality with crippling bugs when seeking to obtain said update.

    Customer Service was worthless. Came here... Thanks for the user input CZcams!
    Nothing worked UNTIL I updated the firmware (not sure if it was needed, but why not right).
    Also, be sure to connect each speaker separately (on/off one at a time) and give each speaker it's own name "boom 1, boom 2, etc in the app settings (if using the app). Otherwise the app did not recognize the speakers separately, even though my phone's bluetooth was connected to 2 speakers. Then, on the app, I was able to drag the 2nd speaker to the center of the screen and get them both synced. Phew... Rockin now! Hope you all have the same good luck.

      I got Boom 1, multible boom 2s & megablasts (1) I don’t like the newer one because they don’t have aux ports.
      I just got the hyperboom & it’s out of sinc with the other speakers when paired by bt or wired so I plan to return it. Plus same app problems

    My daughter (now 6 yrs.) and I have taken a Jabra Solemate for the past 4 seasons to snowboard at Heavenly/Northstar/Kirkwood (Lake Tahoe). It's neatly attached externally in it's protective weather resistant bag on the back of my pack. We have our own soundtrack as we snowboard down the runs. We get tons of looks (good) and people trying to follow us and grooving to the jams as we go.
    Sadly the Solemate is a single speaker and will not allow any type of syncronizing between other speakers. When I read the UE Boom did this I IMMEDIATELY bought TWO. We will be testing them for a week straight from 19-25 Jan on the slopes.
    I'm sitting in my living room right now and comparing them to the Solemate. First I compared one UE Boom to the Solemate directly. The Solemate wins slightly as far as slightly better bass - however the UE Boom is noticeably louder without distortion - even at the highest volume setting. Next I compared TWO UE Boom's connected (using the method in this video). WOW!!!! I'm stoked. They are SOOOOO LOUD and in PERFECT SYNC. I simply cannot wait for our snowboarding trip to kick off the 2015 year! She will wear one on her pack, I will wear the other.
    My only complaint [and really, it's barely a complaint since I understand deep sounds need space for being created] is that I so wish the bass was deeper. Maybe you could make a UE Boom Subwoofer attachment that could be sync'd? That way there'd be an option for it if someone chose to carry it - believe me, I'd find a way to get it on my pack on the mountain!

    • @kinonico

    You can do this with the UE Boom 2 synched to the Mega Boom as well. You just have to choose the Mega Boom as the first one and the Boom 2 as the 2nd. Finally you must push the synch button on the Boom 2 a total of 4 times. And the UE Booms sound pretty nice ain a vehicle as well.

I also have there two speakers connected and double up to my smartphone, so just in case they can't work with two devices at a time, I turned off Bluetooth on my phone.

    They're both connected but there's no sound in the 2nd one. Is there something else so it works?

    CAN I connect a EU Boom 2 with a UE Boom 3? By the way, is the EU Boom 3 as good as the EU Boom 2. I think the 2 is fantastic for my near deaf husband.
