r/bose on Reddit: Smart speaker is not turning on ( red light of death)
November 15, 2024 -

Hi everyone,

My dad's bose smart speaker can't be turned on. I tried resetting it by pressing the pause button for 10 secs but instead of turning the ring white to indicate reset, it turns the ring red and stays like that. Pressing the pause play button for 10 secs turns the light off but on again instantly. Pressing the other buttons do nothing. Do you guys think it might be a battery issue, perperhaps a replacement needed, or what other issue could be causing this?

Thanks for your help!

Light ring is red - Bose Portable Smart Speaker
The method using a computer and USB cable is quickest but the Direct IP and built-in setup network methods can be used as well. IMPORTANT: When following the update instructions, skip the step concerning putting the speaker into Setup mode as this step is not needed when the speaker is in Recovery mode.

How does the Bose Portable Smart Speaker compare to the Bose Smart Speaker 500 and Bose Home Speaker 300?
The Bose Portable Smart Speaker is our only portable smart speaker, while the Bose Home Speaker 300 and Smart Speaker 500 have no battery and must be plugged into the wall to function. Acoustically, the Portable Smart Speaker and the Home Speaker 300 have comparable performance, with the same 360-degree sound and impressively rich bass from similarly compact sizes. Meanwhile, the larger Bose Smart Speaker 500 is our best-sounding smart speaker, providing wall-to-wall stereo sound from a single enclosure. The Smart Speaker 500 also includes a display screen to show you what’s playing. Finally,

r/bose on Reddit: Bose Portable Smart Speaker - Red Ring + Red Light
3 weeks ago -

I own a Bose Portable Smart Speaker purchased in June 2024. About two weeks ago, it began randomly disconnecting from my phone. A few days later, it suddenly stopped working altogether and now only shows a solid red light (see attached photo).

I’ve tried every troubleshooting method I could find: attempting recovery mode (which doesn’t work), using the Bose Updater app (it doesn’t detect the speaker), and following the steps in this Bose support article: https://www.boseapac.com/en_in/support/articles/HC2793/productCodes/bose_portable_home_speaker/article.html

. Unfortunately, nothing has resolved the issue. Can someone please help? I am based out of India and Bose doesn't have official service centers here, only authorized ones. I am skeptical giving my speakers to them, partly because they might screw it up further, and party because I am pretty sure they'll charge me a kidney. Can someone who has seen this before help? Thanks!
