Oh, I don’t know if I like the blue light I’m working and blue light I’m not working. Why couldn’t they have gone green- a-ok, blue- on no connection, red- I’m going to die soon, orange- oh sweet power how you sustain me.

So far I haven’t been able to get the wireless adapter to connect. Or do anything other than charge.

Wish me luck.

On another note, I picked up a Logitech G15 keyboard for $55 and it’s cool as all hell. Programmable LCD display, lit up keys, and channels for running wires underneath it.

Finally got it working after doing the factory reset and recharging it again.

Looks like the wireless adapter sucks charge a lot faster than the headphones.

Hi dropped by! :D

Honestly, I can hardly seem to figure out the instructions. it’s kind of funny, very nondescript. :D

These things have single-handedly the worst user interface I’ve ever seen.

I keep pressing the buttons and hoping something will work.

Does anyone have a more detailed set of instructions. I’m just guessing with the button pushing hoping they’ll connect…

My transmitter will charge, and after leaving it on charge overnight I still get the “fast red blinks” when trying to power it on. I have had this product for several weeks and this is the first time I’ve had this problem. Any ideas? I have also tried to power it on while the transmitter is still on charge, and the same thing happens.

Mine is currently broken. The headset doesn’t turn on anymore (after three months).

Factory resets / charging doesn’t seem to have any effect.

What a piece of junk.

Hey i was wonedering if any knows how this thing works, i bought my headphones today charged them up until they were charged turned on the headphones and the adapter, but the adapter was solid red while the headphones were blinking blue, so i tried the reset button on the bottom of the adapter adjacent to the 3.5mm jack, but it still didnt work can anyone explain why this isnt working?

thanks.

Because the product sucks. :)

Keep holding down the buttons until they’re blinking blue. When they’re both blinking blue, they’ll eventually sync to solid blue.

You may have an issue with it not holding a charge… that’s what I ran into. Doing half a million factory resets seems to fix it — but remember that you have to resync them after a factory reset.

It has the worst user interface I’ve ever seen. Definitely a case of getting simplicity confused with functional:

Just hold down both buttons on the headphones and the receiver until they blink blue and red and then release! Mine connected. Instruction suck! Logitech needs to take a lesson from consumers. Or maybe they need to try it by themselves!!!!

Similar problems. I turned off the bluetooth on my phone.
Seemed to work better?
Be sure to get the phones blinking blue and then push the button on the transmitter.

They are nice when they work!

Got logitech wirless headphones. Work great for a while; now, while the headphones and the transmitter are connected, the headphones constantly beep, and the led flashes red alternatley blue when the headphones beeping; and, when I plug it in to charge, the orange led flashes -rather than staying a cosntant orange. And, it will not charge.
