Had a second brand new Bose Revolve delivered so I could listen to my music in Stereo. After trying to charge the speaker up the red light was still flashing after two or three hours (wasted time I'll never get back) I went on Bose site, and tried updating to my speaker. You were right, the Bose site lied to me saying my speaker was up to date. I did what you showed, and on the sixth attempt at holding down ADV and pressing the up then down arrow, I got the real update, and the speaker is working fine now. Bose should be paying attention to you. I waded through loads of crap before I found you. You are amazing and I wonder how wizards like you get all your technical expertise. Thank you so much! I was about to contact Bose and ask for an exchange of speaker because I thought the speaker was faulty. Bose have a lot to thank you for - you are amazing. xx
wanna ask why the speaker keep asking for update i mean, it works like a week and blinking for the next week
YOU ARE MY HERO!!! Not even kidding. I was about to throw my precious speaker away after having no JOY with Bose directly. As a last-ditch attempt to fix I searched TH-cam and there you were! I downloaded the Bose App after following your instructions and VOILA! She's working again! YOU ROCK. And now, so does my speaker! THANK YOU SO MUCH xx
I could not agree more with you.....👏👏👏👏
how do you even do it on the app
Thanks for this. So many videos out there claiming to fix this problem, but none do. Yours nailed it first time. Thanks again.
AMAZING! I've been trying to fix my speaker with no luck. SO glad I found your video!! Fixed in 5 minutes!
OMG! thank u so much. It worked for me. I thought my revolve was already damaged and I bought JBL 5 last night. Glad u fixed my Bose Revolve. More power to u. 🙂
Oh my god my heart sank today when I saw my Revolve Sound Plus flashing red and wasn't charging, it's been with me for 3+ years and I thought it was the end! Your video saved the start of my year, thank you so much!
Red flashing light problem sorted thank-you! The trick was ignoring the default Bose stating my product is using the latest version. Your instructions were spot on. Thanks again.
I can SO echo every one of the positive comments below about this video and fix! I too was ready to slam my mini against the wall, then run over it, then set it on fire! Your video walked me through. I had seen the "ADV up arrow down arrow" but they said to hold the Shift key - WRONG! What really helped was watching you do it then realizing (as you did/say) I needed to do it faster AND IT WORKED!!! OMG! It's charging again! You've saved me both money and frustration (and marriage?)!!! THANKS!!!
Amazing! I have been trying to get this fixed for so long! Bose tried to get me to send it in and pay $80 to look at it. Thanks again man!!
This is Mr. Bighem, your tutorial was right on point and it was easy to follow; thank you for your assistance!
You man saved my life... Amazing, I can't believe Bose doesn't have any mention to this issue. You rock... I was about to buy another 'non Bose' speaker this time... and you fixed it... So thanks a lot...
Dude you’re an absolute lifesaver!! I thought I was going to have to send it into Bose for a battery replacement but this actually worked! Thank you so much!!!
THANK YOU !!! I had attempted the software update, only to see the message that I was up-to-date. So, I then spent an hour online with Bose support only for them to say that the best option is replacing both of my Revolve speakers. They offered the "discounted" price of $220/speaker for a replacement or $90/speaker for repairs. I tried your instructions and they are both working without issues. Thanks again.
Still better than the Bose Support site, 2 years after you made it. Appreciate the assist mate, thanks for making it easy.
Bro this is sooooo helpful! I didn’t have to went through the A-D-V force updating but still your video pointed the right direction for me. Almost tear my soundlink down and purchase battery replacements. Thanks!
Thank you so much. My speaker is back online and charging again. What a lifesaver!!
You are the best.
I watched a lot of other videos without resolving the problem.
Now my bose works.
Reeeeelly thanks
Thanks so much. I contacted Bose last night and I was told to mail in for repair which could take up to five weeks, and would cost $80. But with your quick video my speaker is working again, and I didn't have to spend a dime!!!
Worked for me 🙂. Haven't used the device for 5 months and when I turned it on, it just didnt charge. The bose connect app was showing that the device is up to date. I followed the steps that u suggested and the device started charging again. Thanks man !!
I will go now and give one star for bose connect app 🙂
Just saw your comments.. you helped me with another issue 11 months ago…THANKS AGAIN!!
I order a cradle, thinking that the charging connector was damaged. no luck. I watch your video and solve my problem and save my soundlink. a big THANK YOU!!
Thanks so much for this!! That info about the ADV {Up} {Down} key sequence was such a help. I thought I was going to have to wait for the next Bose update. :-)
Awesome video! In just a couple of minutes and i was back to listening my favorite tracks on my Bose Revolve. Videos like these need to circulate more.
OMG amazing i have been trying to find a solution for over 12 month online , nothing worked until i came across your advise Fantastic . it is loaded and now charging . bravo . saved from recycling . cheers
Your fix worked!! Thank you so much, I was ready to throw mine against the wall and see how many pieces it would shatter into for fun. I guess I won't be doing that just yet. I appreciate it!!
Thank you sooo much! You are a genius! You solved my problem - I thought I would have to bring my Soundlink to the service center and now I don’t have to! Your subscriber from the Philippines😊
You rock man, thank u so much for helping us. I was hopeless but then I found you. Follow your instructions and my Speaker worked again. So much thanks
THANK YOU SO MUCH! Absolute life saver!!! So grateful for this video.
My experience in case it helps anyone: I had to use the Safari browser for it to work, and had to go through the list of supported products because it wouldn't detect my speaker even though it was plugged in. I did the adv+up+down about 8 - 10 times before it registered, but then it was smooth sailing from there. After it finished updating it said the battery was at 100% charge, so it wasn't even a dead battery problem to begin with, it was just some weird malfunction!
I've only owned this speaker for just over a year, there was no way I was going to pay $149 for them to 'repair' it. I've treated it super well the whole time I've had it, so this glitch smells like built-in obsolescence to me.
Thank you so much again!
OMG! after watching 20 videos AND 4 DAYS, this worked- THANK YOU SO MUCH!
It worked on the first try, thank you for saving me $75! I posted a link to your video in the Bose forum.
You’re welcome! Glad I was able to help. Please support my channel by subscribing, thank you! ❤️
THANK YOU!!! I was about to throw the speaker away, as nothing was working. This was super helpful and a quick fix!
April 2022: My Bose Soundlink Revolve speaker won't charge with FLASHING AMBER/YELLOW light. Reset, factory reset, changing cables, etc., nothing helped. Thanks to this awesome tutorial, I tried and there was a pending update. After the update, the charging worked. Thanks a million!
Absolutely brilliant. Thank you so much. You fixed my Bose Revolve 2. The ADV up and down is the same on a Mac and this works so well. Really appreciate you posting this video. Who knew the update message wasn't true. Brilliant
You are the best!!! solution was easy to follow and worked perfectly. Bose support had us buying a new device at 350 USD. Thank you!!!!!!!
Thanks man . I thought it was dead .
Very informative and easy to follow video .
Thanks again
Nailed it! Been trying for months to fix this. I only had it sit for a few days when this happened. I never would have guessed the “ADV up down” trick. It worked the first time I typed it.
Mad mad respect to you sir! You saved my soundlink revolve plus!
thanks this helped me also. I first thought I had to hold down ADV keys at the same time but when I did them separately it worked. And you are right, the sight first said it was up to date. it is now back, thanks again.
I use this speaker for my small business and this was a life saver. thank you!!
Thanks. Right to the point. I struggled 5days with the manual and online help from Bose before seeing this video. Many thanks
Brou, you're my hero!!! Thank you for the help I almost cried because I was about not to serve again and I looked on TH-cam hoping to see who could help me solve the problem and fly it!! You left, thank you for the help, take out more videos helping people 100% recommended this bro
Thanks for your help… my speaker would not even turn on.. I thought I would look at your video after calling Bose..they were no help…They wanted me to send them the speaker, but there would be a charge.. $80. I didn’t have the red light issue it was completely dead…nothing tried everything! I followed your video.. ( didn’t have to do the key strokes). But was prompted to update.. and works perfectly now… Thanks for helping people out we really appreciate it!
Hey, you're awesome! Thought I was gonna have to buy a new speaker but your instructions fixed it. Cheers!
I tried six months ago this way several times nothing heppen, then after about three months again and there was still a red light. Today I decided to get rid of the Bosse rag but I gave it one last try. Miracle! Despite the lack of a version update (the same again) this time the speaker " rise" to the living with 100% battery.
You are blessed author!
Thank you so much. I was on hold forever with bose and then found this video. Its re charging now and hopefully will work again.
Thank you so much brother, I use this for work and one day it crapped out on me, which was weird since I take care of my stuff more than myself, lol. Thanks to you I didnt take my $200 speaker garbage bound
You’re welcome mate, glad I was able to help you out. Cheers! 🙂
Thanks so much! After trying lots of other "solutions", I found your video. Problem finally solved!
Thanks a ton, friend! This one is really amazing. Subscribed to your channel; I am sure your other videos also would be as great:)
how can i like your video twice..man you are such a live saver
I always forget the ADV Up Down when I dont use this speaker for a while... Appreciate this video!
Just wanted to leave a comment. My Bose speaker didn't have the flashing red light, but it just wouldn't charge. updated it via this method and voila, the sound when plugging it in came back and it's now charging. Wouldn't have ever guessed that you have to update a friggin bluetooth speaker. thanks a bunch, man.
Thanks for this video! I had no clue what to do with my BOSE and the red flashing light. I thought it was not charging. I tried to solve it, but nothing was working. I found your video! Problem solved! Thanks again!
FANTASTIC! Was ready to toss this speaker - appreciate the great updater hack!!! Great show!
After six years of faithful service I got the flashing red light of doom. This worked like a charm although I didn't have to do the adv up/down. THANK YOU! EDIT: Seems like my unit goes red light every time I lose track or don't hear the low battery warning and it loses all battery power. I've resorted to this several times now and have now had to ADV up/down and it has worked every time. Again. THANK YOU!
Thanks Bro..... I had lost all hopes on my speaker... Now its back ...Appreciate!!!!!
Thank you for saving my speaker, its almost ended up in the trash bin if not because of you. Big Thanks from Singapore.
I thought there was a power problem, so I thought I'd throw it away because it was 150 dollars, but I updated if and solved the problem. Thank you so much.
Bro!!!!!…. This video has take my speaker another breath… thank u so much!!!!
February 2023, tested and worked perfectly, many thanks for sharing this info.
Thank you Sooooo Much!!!! Amazing video, it worked out perfectly. Was about to send it to service center after talking with the online Bose service. Many thanks 🌷
I had the same issue - flashing red and everything saying it was completely up-to-date...I almost said screw it and spent money I don't need to spend on a speaker that the website said was updated, even though the numbers didn't match up. Thank you thank you thank you!!!
My respects, you are one in a billion, I said I would never dump mine because I trust in solutions, then came you!!!!!!
I appreciate the step by step instructions! My Bose Soundlink Resolve Plus is working perfectly.
Glad I was able to help you out. Cheers mate!
@@thetrotthurtstv3480 I had mine too updated and thanks a lot ..it was success...but after that I can't switch it off wit power...it automatically gets connected wit Bluetooth..and can't switch off
@@somchitra Yea, thats a "feature" they implemented a while back. I think it's annoying as hell.
THANK YOU. was giong to send to bose directly for a repair, you saved my speaker
Bose support web page should cite this video! Thank you bro, it was more than helpful!
Thanks!!! I had a problem with my soundlink revolve plus and called Bose. They told me that it's out of warranty and for $80 I can send it to them and they'll fix it. Done the update and it's working again.
Thumbs up 👍 got my going from red to orange in 15mins thank you now working fine .
Excellent! Thank you. I assumed the battery was shot and started to tear it apart to replace the battery. That battery is not meant to be consumer replaced. It even has those pesky security torx screws. I was planning to toss the speaker into the trash. Then I found your video. Your procedure was successful. The only problem I had was the "ADV" keys. I was holding all three down at the same time. Nothing happened. Then I tried each key in sequence and BINGO! The update ran all the way and now I've got tunes pouring out of my speaker. 8-)
LOVE IT!!! So much more helpful than Bose, who were useless!!
Glad I was able to help you out. Cheers!!
THANK YOU SIR!!!! You just saved me $200 to get a new speaker. Cheers!
Brah, I really appreciate your video bro. I was sad coz of this. Just fixed and save me $100 🔥. Thanks broooo
How in the heck did you figure all this out with the roadblocks Bose gave you?? Well done, you are my hero too!
You are my hero too, because saved me to throw my BOSE to the trash, it is alive again and working very very well. Thank you for your help. Claps 👏🏼 for you.
This video is great it just saved me $150 bucks. I almost thru out my revolve before searching youtube.
Awesome information. Thanks. I rarely leave comments, but this is that noteworthy. I have a Mac, so the update was a bit more seamless, as I downloaded and install the Bose updater app. No key combination needed. I actually updated all my devices. Thanks again.
Hi Cole, I appreciate your comment. Glad I was able to help, cheers!
I throw mine a lot of times just wishing it will be fixed,now its updating,thanks ofr ur help very much ;)
Thank you so much for saving my Bose and my life Sir. 🙏💗💗💗🙏 I was so disappointed for almost three months and in fact, I’m about to throw away my speaker. I gave it one last try by searching at TH-cam and boom, you got me! Thank you so much Sir. 👍 My new JBL is on the way though. 😂
Thx a lot. Had thoughts of throwing away the box, after trying it to reset about 2 hours. 😂
Now it works again. You are the best!!
Fixed my problem and saved 200 Euro. Thank you!
Revolve+ was out for 4 years, and yes this worked, but with a catch; you need a good computer. My friends computer didnt work so we later got something with a i7 core. And that proved to work.
Thanks a bunch.
You saved my speaker, you deserve my sub. Big thank you from Germany.
Just retourned for a second time 🤦♂Had the same issue again and forgot how to solve it. So thanks again.
Like nearly all of the other commenters, thanks for helping me save my Revolve from the trash heap. Your instructions were spot on.
Thank you so much I was going to throw this speaker out! Key board shortcut took many trys to get it to start but then it worked and now all charged up. Many thanks!!!
It's really interesting to watch this kind of vlogg,thank for sharing your knowledge regarding this matter..
Thank you. I was about to throw it away. You saved me some money. Again Thank You and God Bless.
Very helpful, thank you! For some reason, both of my Bose Revolve Soundlink speakers have this issue every time I try to charge them. It's super irritating because whenever I use the updater app, it tells me that my products are up to date. So thanks again!
im so nervous about my speaker right now , but works!!! thank you so much !!!
You’re welcome mate, please support my channel by subscribing. Cheers!
Thank you very much I solved the problem on my sound link 2 as well once again great job
Bro , it’s really helpful , my bad boy come back , thank you so much !
Thanks for making the video. Fixed the issue effortlessly 👌
Thanks man! Fixed the rebolve+ of a Friend with a New battery since it was drown and dead. But then it had the Red flashing Light Problem. This Fixed it. Awsome!
Unlike the garbage instructions on the BOSE support pages - this actually works. I needed to do it a lot more than 4 (who knows why ?) but I finally was able to properly reload the firmware. Thanks for sharing
HOLY...amazing!!! I watched the video thinking what kind of keyboard magic is this, it can't possibly work. Sure enough...couple A D V up/down and it started updating and works great. Thank you very much! btw...this was on a Soundlink Revolve +II.
Thank you so much our Bose revolve plus is back on its track!!! Thank you much for your video...
Thank you, i was about to dump and do some damaging surgery to my bose red light blinking. Thank you friend. Regards From Indonesia
This works, thank you! Have a blessed day
I Fix 2 of my speakers!!! Wow this really works saved me time and money on repairs . I’m so happy I came across this video.
Hey there! Thx for the Video. My Bose box works now! Great Video and keep going! :)
Thanks man for having this session. Thoht my batt has reached it max charge cycle. 😂
Thanks this really works,my spearker start working after i followers your video am back on track Thanks again men
This worked like a charm! ❤
My firmware was not up to date so I could update without doing the keyboard trick but after the update it still blinked red. I had to do the keyboard trick and update it to the same version (3.1.1) that was already installed and my speaker came back to life!
I do the same think but my speaker still flashes red after the update :( can anybody help me? :(
@@oOoMicheoOo same here. updated to 3.1.1 then after a few days reverted back to blinking red error.
After the update mine is still blinking red
Same here. I updated like numerous times already it still goes back to blinking red 😭
This worked great for me. Had to update twice because after the first update, it was still blinking red.
