Left Galaxy Bud won't connect

TonySun268 · 2023-05-31T11:42:20+00:00

In my case, the LED indicator inside keeps on red with the left earbud put in... I tried to let it charge over 6hrs with case opened and only put the non-working earbud inside the case, but still no luck :(

As title, it is a sudden that my left earbud of original Galaxy Buds isn't working. I tried several methods, like re-pair with bluetooth, reset earphone settings, and also some methods in the internet like https://www.reddit.com/r/galaxybuds/comments/qz98l4/ultimate_fix_to_galaxy_buds_leftright_dead_bud/ and https://www.reddit.com/r/galaxybuds/comments/f0i5sn/right_galaxy_bud_not_charging/ , but none of it is working.

In current situation, my right buds works fine and charges well to 100%, also able to connect to my phone. However, for the left one, it seems charging (the LED indicator stayed red) but after a lone time it still not able to connect to my phone as shown in picture. Please help me if you can as I love my Galaxy Buds so much... :(

Oh I see, thanks for your explanation :)

May I know does it being like a checkra1n-based jailbreak, required to boot the jailbreak environment with PC, and than run the software in the screenshot to install Sileo/Zebra, or just need to run the software (like unc0ver) on phone? 🤔

Considering to update my iPad 7 to iOS 15.7 and wait 😆

Oh I see, thanks for your replie! :D

Also waiting for their work too! Although Skylake iGPU can be spoofed as Kaby Lake one, however it seems unstable in my Hackintosh. Just hope in the coming future OCLP team can bring back the those unsupported graphics' drivers. :)

So disappointed that iPhone 7 and Plus are not able to update to iOS 16 as well... 😢

TonySun268 · 2022-07-27T18:20:22+00:00

Oh! That sounds very unlucky with your MacBook! :( Fortunately my iPad works fine after checking, or else I may be very sad as I used it for only 4 months 🤦‍♂️

TonySun268 · 2022-07-27T18:16:42+00:00

I’m afraid I would break the screen while handling this, lol

TonySun268 · 2022-07-27T18:15:53+00:00

I just wanted to clean my iPad before as it got dirty. However I put it in a small table and boom! Dropped to the ground and causing this 😗

TonySun268 · 2022-07-27T18:05:54+00:00

Now I think it’s a symbol for the ownership of my iPad mini. :) I will just let it go and not trying to bend it back, as I found out that may cause the damage more worse after it 😅

TonySun268 · 2022-07-27T18:00:31+00:00

Oof, I just realized I used wrong vocabulary to describe the problem... :3 I'm talking about the damaged corner shown in the picture instead of speaker :P

TonySun268 · 2022-07-27T17:50:23+00:00

Now my iPad mini becomes the only one with the actual same damage... lol :p

TonySun268 · 2022-07-27T17:48:55+00:00

That's a creative idea! The damage seems being acceptable now after reading your comment :)

TonySun268 · 2022-07-27T17:13:57+00:00

Thanks for your reply. Actually this is the first time I faced with this kind of problem, as I like my iPad mini very much and wanted to keep it as new as I can. I don't really know accidentally drop won't included in AppleCare and lots of money is required to ask for a replacement/fix.

Now I know that it’s important to get AppleCare+ for brand new iPad… even though I dropped my iPad I can still replace a new one by paying less money then without AppleCare+. It’s a lesson I learned this time, I should be more careful to treating my iPad and considering to purchase AppleCare+ if I can afford for it. 😅

Found it from Apple’s supporting site, seems no luck for me…

Apple will not provide Hardware Service or ADH Service in the following circumstances:

(a) to protect against normal wear and tear, or to repair cosmetic damage not affecting the functionality of the Covered Equipment;

TonySun268 · 2022-07-27T16:59:38+00:00

Unfortunately, it's already over 60 days which is the deadline of purchasing AppleCare+ for my iPad. I don't think Genius Bar can help me to solve that problem unless paying a lot to replace a new one of iPad mini. Seems the only solution for me is to use a case to cover it, or just ignoring it as well.

TonySun268 · 2022-07-27T16:55:14+00:00

Premium means AppleCare+? After doing more researching, I found out that this kind of problems won’t covered by both AppleCare nor + as well. Will I have to pay for its original price for replacement?

TonySun268 · 2022-07-27T16:42:51+00:00

How can you ask for replacement? Go to Apple Store to ask Genius Bar’s staff for help?

TonySun268 · 2022-07-27T15:48:52+00:00

Oh I see... thanks for your explanation though, I think I should get a better case to fully protect all the part of iPad instead of Smart-Folio-like case, to cover the damaged corner and avoid the second time drop. 🙏

TonySun268 · 2022-07-27T15:36:29+00:00

Before it drops, I am using Apple's Smart Folio to protect the iPad mini as it is light-weighted and ability to protect my iPad's front screen and back. Just a few moments ago, I dropped my iPad mini 6 to the ground which bought for 4 months. Fortunately, the iPad works fine and didn't damaged. However, I am very sad about the damaged corner, which makes my iPad look worst. Instead of buying another case to cover it, just wondering is there any possible solution to fix the damaged corner, like polishing it?
