UE Wonderboom 1 Speaker Not Pairing

This post explains how to avoid the UE Wonderboom 1 Speaker Not Pairing problem, by giving the correct way to pair it. This shows pairing to a typical smart device so that you may play music on that device and have it come through the UE Wonderboom 1 Speaker. Start with your UE Wonderboom 1 Speaker shut OFF (all dark LEDs). Then, follow along for pairing it with phones, tablets, laptops, media players, et al.

UE Wonderboom 1 Speaker Not Pairing: The Right Way to Do It

1. Visit the Home Screen of your Smart Device

Press the Home button to get to the  Home   page.  See our screen as shown next.

3. Find the  Settings  App

We found ours on the second page of the  Home  screen.

iPhone -Home- screen showing the -Settings- app.

3. Bring up the Settings App

Tap the Settings app icon.  Find this pointed at in the last picture.

The iPhone then displays the first page of its  Settings  screen, as shown in the next screenshot

iPhone -Settings- page, showing the -Bluetooth- option.

4. Go to the Bluetooth Settings Page to Continue with UE Wonderboom 1 Speaker Not Pairing Solution

Tap the  Bluetooth  item, as pointed at by the green arrow in the last screenshot.

The Bluetooth Settings screen then appears as follows. Note that our Bluetooth should be switched ON here.

But since the 3 is currently OFF, it does not show in either the  My Devices  or  Other Devices lists on the tablet yet,  Why?  Because we have yet to connect it with this device for the first time.  Plus, the 3 is not yet transmitting its Bluetooth connection info. See this scenario, that appears as shown next.

The Bluetooth page in iPhone settings.

Note in this picture that no UE Wonderboom 1 Speaker appears yet.

5. Power Up your UE Wonderboom 1 Speaker

Turn on the unit by quickly pressing its  Power  button. See this button, pointed out in the next picture.

The UE Wonderboom 1 Speaker top view. Showing the dark -Power- button.

The 3 then comes on, and announces this with a rising electronic sound.  The Power button also lights up, as we see next.

The -Power- button glowing white.

If the 3 does not come on, then see our  UE Wonderboom 1 Speaker Power Button Not Working Fixes piece to solve this.

6. Put your UE Wonderboom 1 Speaker into Discovery Mode

Now, to see the 3 on your iPhone, place it into BT discovery mode. For that, press and hold the Bluetooth button located as we see in the next picture. It’s on the top, at the twelve o’clock position in he buttons panel. Release the button when you hear the rising plunks sound.

Also, a lamp in this button starts quickly flashing white.

See the picture next. We found ours, as pointed out next.

8. Pair with your UE Wonderboom 1 Speaker

Tap the listed speaker in the  Other Devices  section of the  Bluetooth Devices  list, shown above. If the unit does not appear on the source device, try moving it closer, powering it off and then back on again. Or at worst, you may have to reset the UE Wonderboom 1 Speaker.

Your device then connects with the 3 (appears as “WONDERBOOM 3” in this demo).

The  Bluetooth Settings  screen then changes to display something like the following.

The Bluetooth Settings page again,  but now showing the UE Wonderboom 1 Speaker as Connected.

Note that the UE Wonderboom 1 Speaker now appears as connected, as pointed out in the last picture.
