Beats Updater just bricked my Studio Wireless!!

After Upgrading to iOS 9, my beats studio wireless (new ones) got some problems with it so i decided to update its firmware after installing Beats Updater It said an update was available. Downloaded it. Starting, updating, then said it could not be completed. Now my beats are inoperable. and won't turn on...

Is there any way to unbrick my headphones by myself?

P.S.: Tried to Reset it many times (hold the power for 10sec) and it didn't work too. 😟

Same story with my Studio Wireless...error during the update on a Windows 10 PC and my headphones wouldn't turn on. The lights just flashed white from white to left. I tried everything suggested in this forum (including the holding of the power button while I reinstalled the software) and none of it worked. Called into Apple Support and they ran me through the standard protocol of trying to reset with no success. They said that I would need to send the headphones in for repair.


Before sending them in I figured I'd plug them into my iMac (OS X El Capitan) and try the update. I downloaded the software and my headphones were immediately recognized and the update fixed everything.


My suggestion would be that you use a completely different computer from the one that you tried the original update on. And, if possible, switch between computer types (PC to Mac or Mac to PC).


Hope this helps.
