Hey guys, it’s been the second day my homepod is not responding and the only thing it does, the volume buttons/lights are flashing. Tried restore it but after a long time the red light turns again into the volume buttons that are flashing. Anyone found any solution? I’m from Cyprus, is not easy for me to bring it back to UK for repair, though is in warranty.
HomePod, 14
OK, that isn't one of the conditions listed at Identify status lights on HomePod - Apple Support. One of mine has a similar issue, but with a period of about 13 seconds, again the light stays on for about 1 second. For both of us I think this is some kind of unrecoverable boot loop. At present Apple don't appear to have any fix, and as far as I know the only service option is a replacement unit at pretty much full cost. 😞

I don't believe there is a physical reset switch. I wouldn't poke anything into any hole that you see. Ordinarily you would use the Press the top of HomePod to reset it method from Reset HomePod - Apple Support but that doesn't help if the device reboots before it can recognize your input.

I think so too, though I love in Cyprus and I don’t know how easy will it be for me to send it over and get a new one…
Let’s hope that someone found a solution about it. Btw I saw that there is a small whole under it and maybe this could be also some sort of solution, force reset let’s say 🤷🏻♂️?
Try unplugging it for over 24 hours more then try a Reset
Thank you Vancouver, i will try that and be back here soon.
I’ve tried it and it didn’t work as well. anything else in mind?
How often do they flash?

i could say every 2 seconds and the light keeps for 1 second.
Homepod not responding!
