    Steps to Factory Reset JBL Flip 5: 1:02
    Video Transcript:
    Hey everyone. I'm Max Dalton, and in this video I'm going to show you how to factory reset a JBL Flip 5 Bluetooth speaker. Restoring your Flip 5 to its default factory settings restores the speaker's settings to what they were when you took it out of the box for the first time. Specifically, everyone who is paired with your portable speaker will kicked off of the device, and if you changed your speaker to play audio in low frequency or some other mode, the Flip 5 will return to its normal mode. But restoring your JBL Flip 5 to its factory settings isn't just good for kicking people off of your Bluetooth speaker. You should restore your JBL Bluetooth speaker's factory defaults before selling it to someone or giving it to a friend or family member, and it's also one of the standard troubleshooting options you should go to before moving on to more drastic measures, such as taking your speaker apart. Resetting your JBL Flip 5 to its default factory settings only takes a few seconds.
    And now let's walk through the steps to factory reset the JBL Flip 5 Bluetooth speaker.
    Step 1. Turn your Flip 5 on, and then make sure the device is powered on. You can tell the device is on when the Power button has a blue backlight.
    Step 2. Hold both the "Volume Up" and "Play" buttons down until the device turns off by itself. This will take roughly five seconds. You can tell the device has powered down when the blue backlight behind the Power button is no longer on, and when you hear this power down sound. At this point, you have successfully reset the JBL Flip 5 to its factory default settings.
    Step 3. Press the "Power" button again to power the Bluetooth speaker back on. The device will automatically be in discovery mode, which is indicated by this pinging sound you'll hear after turning the device on, and by the blinking of the backlight behind the Bluetooth button. At this point, there are no devices paired with your JBL Flip 5 speaker, and you'll need to pair a device with the Bluetooth speaker to hear audio through it.
    Let me know what you think about your JBL Flip 5 in the comments below.

    I was having problems with distorted (popping) sound on my Flip 5 (volume typically set at 60%). The factory reset seems to have resolved that issue for now. Not sure if/when the problem will return so I'll enjoy it while I can. Thank you for posting this video.

  • @gloryb-tv
    @gloryb-tv Před 9 měsíci

    Thx for this tutorial! I decided to do this factory reset of the Flip 5 today because as it was playing music from my phone, it first was doing a crackling sound, and then it started blasting loudly with the sound of a foghorn. *That was freaky.* I turned it off. Then did this reset. As I'm typing, I'm trying to pair the Flip 5 with the phone again. In the Bluetooth setting, it made me delete the Flip 5 that was listed there. Now the phone isn't "finding" the Flip 5 even though they're sitting next to each other and the Flip is doing that search thing it does. I turned the Flip off again and then turned it on (again!). Now the phone recognized it. I hope I don't get the loud foghorn sound again. The steps start at 1:02

      I don't think so. There's a specific button combination you'll need to use to cycle through the speaker modes. You'll have to do some digging, as I'm not sure what that is for the Flip 5. I avoid messing with that.

      I can't be completely certain, but it sounds like your battery may be done for. If you want to replace it, you'll have to remove the cover from your speaker, and then there are some screws you need to remove to get to the battery. I've just seen other people do this on CZcams, but I've never done it myself, and I'm not sure what a new battery will cost you.

    When connecting more than one flip 5 together, after about 30 min it automatically disconnects if I do not have both simultaneously connected to my phone via bluetooth (since this causes disruptions in the sound if further apart).

    nothing of any tips worked but as soon as I accidently was warned that my file sharing was turned off and I turned it back on, my jbl was responding for the first time since yesterday. I had not been able to charge it or turn it on or any blue light or anything. Now it it just started, is now charging.

    Here’s a thing I’ve never used the speaker and it’s almost 2 years old it’s been in a box. It shows it has full power but it will not stay on. I can turn it on and immediately turn itself off. I have done as you’ve instructed on this video of resetting the JBL five flip but it automatically shuts off before I can actually pair my phone to the speaker.

    Mine only stays on for 6 seconds then shuts off. I tried all the tricks to try to reset it, any suggestions?

      I let it sit for about a month, I think it got wet inside somewhere, but now it works fine.
