I have a problem with the soundlink revolve 2 speaker. I updated the software. I use the original Bose cable and charger but the speaker does not charge, the orange charging light flashes, the speaker does not turn on. What else should I do?
Soundlink Revolve refuses to charge (again)
Bose SoundLink Flex vs Revolve 2 ?
Soundlink Revolve 2 vs Soundlink Revolve+

Any ideas?
I searched and saw some suggestions saying to reset it by holding down the multi-function button for 10 seconds until the lights flash, or to do a factory reset by holding down power for 10 seconds. Did all of that, still not charging.
I saw a suggestion saying it could be the charger, or the cable, or even a broken charging port on the speaker. If I plug it into a USB port on my computer the light comes on and the updater can read the firmware so I know all of that is working. Still won't charge :(
It has been suggested that updating the firmware fixes the charging issue. The last few times this "smart" speaker mysteriously decided to stop charging on me (yes this has happened multiple times) I updated the firmware and it fixed it. Yay! Not so this time. Updater says the firmware is already up to date, so there's nothing else left for me to do.
Alright, figured I would plea for help one last time before I accomplish one last final thing with this speaker.... and I can see the eyes rolling now, but the text post instructions say "speak your mind" and I need to say this anyway: Never again will I purchase another BOSE product. I've had more frustrations caused by this OVERPRICED CRAP!! than any cheap non-"smart" speaker. 300 bucks down the drain.
Now if you will excuse me, unless someone comes through with a miracle in the next 24 hours, I'm going to take this overpriced paperweight to my garage, where I will proceed to smash it into a million pieces with a sledge hammer. This will give me more joy than I ever got out of this thing before :)
