I was having the same issue and about to throw both my JBL speaker and my new phone out the window. However I got it to pair by pressing the raised Bluetooth symbol on the speaker by the volume + and - symbols. Voila, it worked for me. Hope you all have the same luck.

I had to press the play button and volume

up (+) button to reset it to factory.


Next I went to setting and had my phone “forget this device”


I restarted my phone and started all over again.

  • turn on phone
  • turn on JBL Flip 5
  • connect the speaker to the stupid phone
  • enjoy. Perhaps Android after this bull spit will be the way to go. Come at me Apple

I’m having a lot of sound problems with iPhone 12. I regret buying it. I’ll probably go back to my 11. I can do anything right. Sound problems in all social media’s, many sound problems with videos calls. Just terrible.

anyone else? Maybe I just got a defect one.
