jbl flip 6: Crackling noise on JBL Flip 6

Mon, 04 Dec 2023 16:06:55 -0700

New JBL Flip 6 works perfectly with my MacBook Pro and Google TV device…HOWEVER it doesn’t work with iPhone 12. I’m getting a crackling sound coming from speaker. Ps: first time playing speaker was after JBL app update (so not sure if that’s what screwed up Bluetooth?) subsequently updated iOS to latest update, problem still persists. Ps: issue does not exist with my Flip 4

JBL Flip 6: Can't enter AUX mode

Sun, 21 Dec 2025 09:50:40 -0700

I've watched several videos and followed online guides trying to access AUX/service mode but when I press and hold the bluetooth and play/pause buttons it doesn't shut down as it should. I have tried with numerous cables and no luck. Is there something wrong with my device or am I doing something wrong?

I am also unable to execute any command involving holding multiple buttons down. I have attempted a factory reset to no avail. It is unclear whether or not I need to contact JBL and have it looked at by a professional.
