Spark Mini no bluetooth audio FIX!
-
I receieved a Spark MINI and after updating the firmware the bluetooth audio did not work. No Smart Jam, no music play along. Just guitar audio. Thanks to cgil155 I realized a factory reset may fix it, but this is tricky. Instructions are as follows...
Factory Reset for Spark MINI
1 Turn off your Spark MINI.
2 Press and hold the POWER and PAIR buttons on the back panel, then release the buttons when the Power Indicator turns white.
3 Press and hold one of the buttons from POWER or PAIR, until all four preset LEDs buttons blink once, then release the button.After doing this I could not get bluetooth to connect. I learned the following...
1It's important on iOS you go to bluetooth settings, go to Spark audio, and "forget" the device.
2 After the factory reset, completely kill the app, as in swipe up, or restart your phone or iPad.
Now reopen the app, go through the prompts, and and hit the "connect" button for app control.
Then press and hold the PAIR button on the back of the amp until the blue Bluetooth light glows, You should now see "Spark audio" below the list of bluetooth devices and you can click it to connect. (There should also be "Spark BLE" listed as a bluetooth connection. This is for app control.)Without these two things, I could not reconnect to bluetooth audio.
I do hope they fix the no audio problem soon. Not a good look for new users.
Overall though, I love the amp.
