I am unable to pair the Anker SoundCore Bluetooth Speaker with a new ZTE Axon 7. Bluetooth is enabled on the phone, and the speaker is in standby mode (blinking blue light), but the phone is unable to “see” the speaker. I have tried refreshing the Bluetooth available items list on the phone, but it still doesn’t see the speaker. And I have the speaker right next to the phone, so distance shouldn’t be an issue.
I was able to pair a different Bluetooth speaker with the Axon 7 the other day, so the phone is able to detect Bluetooth devices. And the Soundcore is able to pair with my old Moto G2, so at least one other phone is able to see and pair with the speaker.
I’ve tried holding down the Bluetooth button on the speaker for 2 seconds, but it has not resolved the issue. Maybe I’m not doing it right because I get no audio or visual cues indicating that anything has happened with the speaker. I’ve also tried rebooting the phone, but that hasn’t helped either.
Any ideas?
Thank you.
