SoundCore Boost no connection to tv?

#3

Hi thanks for your reply.
Sure, the model is 40MU6470 - I believe itā€™s a 2017 model too.
Yes itā€™s fine with my iPhone - no problems there.

Thanks :slight_smile:

If you are unable to figure it out consider getting a auxiliary Bluetooth transmitter for your TV

Yeah I did look into those for the tv we had previously without Bluetooth but I read bad reviews on many saying they were useless.
Not sure if these would fix the issue with the new tv but I think we will probably look into a sound bar perhaps - Iā€™ll keep my Anker for my own music! Cheers :wink:

Too bad Anker doesnā€™t make TV sound barsšŸ¤”

Would be a nice idea! @AnkerOfficial any plans for sound bars?! :slight_smile:

Haha, good idea, we love to create surprise to our lovely customers if possible!:grin:

Hi. I have exactly the same problem with a different 2017 Samsung UHD TV running latest firmware upgrade. The TV connects fine to other Bluetooth speakers and the speaker connects fine with other devices and even a couple of slightly older Samsung TVs that we have.

Any ideas or movement with this compatibility issue?

I tried it with my Samsung tv too,
With the Soundcore 2 it works, with the boost it comes Sound really short, after this the speaker get kicked out.
my Huawei p10 connect first with the speaker and then again, after the 2nd automatic connection comes first soundā€¦
With my Samsung Galaxy s6edge it connects direktly.

Hi guys.
Same problem here with my 2 2017 32inch Samsung smart tvs the anker soundcore boost connects then brief sound then nothing. How weird. Seems to pair with everything else though Iā€™ve only bought it today. Maybe itā€™s some bug. Itā€™s weird because my Samsung tvs work with there own brand headphones and also with a older Bluetooth speaker I have.

It might be the incompatibility issue.

Hi,
Same issue here - Samsung UHD TV UE55JS8500.
Any firmware upgrade?

#16

From what I have researched on this matter Samsung tv do not fully support bluetooth headphones or speakers without the use of an adapter or via soundsync. In other wards itā€™s an issue with samsung tvā€™s and not the Anker speaker itself. Similar with other non samsung branded speakers that try to connect to the tv.

Itā€™s not very helpful to just say ā€œit might be the incompatibility issueā€ That statement raises more questions than it answers. You imply there is a known compatibility issue but do not say with what exactly. If you mean to say there MAY be an incompatibility issue you should replace the word THE with AN. In any case, this issue has been going for months and itā€™s about time there was a full explanation and a solution. Both my samsung ue49mu6400 and my Samsung ue32k5500 will not keep a Bluetooth connection with the boost for more that a couple of seconds. However, both these televisions connect easily to a cheap supermarket Bluetooth sound bar. So itā€™s not the televisionā€™s problem. Additionally, it sometimes takes a couple of goes to get the boost to connect to my Amazon dot. Do have to send my boost back as defective?

Iā€™ve also been trying to connect soundcore boost to my 49 samsung smart tv, same 1 or 2 seconds playing then dropping connection as everyone elso.
On the TV, put in a request for samsung support. Then did a sound test from the menu which worked.
Connected bluetooth boost again and tried to do sound test in samsung diagnostics but it wasnā€™t allowed.

(I had already previously did the boost firmware update which didnā€™t solve it)

So exited all the menuā€™s turned boost off, watched TV for a bit, tried boost again, TV asked do I want to connect? said yes and lo and behold its working!

Tried turning off boost and selecting tv speakers or boost numerous times and it works every time so sorry, its working for now, but Iā€™ve absolutely no idea as to why.

So, turned tv off while I did some things, came back to post this, turned tv on and its not working again and cant get it to work following what I did above. Stuck again now
