Phone won't control Bluetooth speaker
 

My Bluetooth speaker has a volume on it. I used to set it to max and control it with my android phone. It seems that when they did an update a few months ago I lost that ability. I have had this issue in the past but I fixed it by switching off something in the Bluetooth settings. Use volume keys for media does not work. Any suggestions?

Some speakers have apps you can use to update the firmware. Did you try and unpair the speaker and reconnect it?

Yes, I did.

I've tried clearing the cache and even reset network settings

Anybody?

The weird thing is that it used to work on this speaker. I used to set the volume to max and was able to control it with my phone. It seems that the last Andriod update changed that. Even stranger is the fact that I can control the volume on my other devices (car stereo, Dewalt speaker, etc). This is baffling to me.

What kind of speaker is it? In my personal experience some of them are very easy to use while others are a pain in the ass.

This one has always been easy to use.

Have you tried restarting your phone?

Never heard of that kind of issue...

Lol, leave it to the tech support guy to suggest a reboot. ROFL

Yes, of course, I have done that. Multiple times, actually.
