Chosen Solution

My UE Boom 2 crashed during the process of updating firmware via UEBOOM app in iPod touch. Now it won’t update and won’t connect. When I try to update via USB on my Mac, the updater app says it is already updated to the latest version. When the Boom is turned on, the bluetooth light blinks rapidly. It won’t connect to any devices over bluetooth any more. Factory reset makes no difference. So basically, my UE BOOM2 is now broken after crashing during the firmware updates and is unusable.

If your UE Boom 2 portable speaker refuses to connect to other devices via Bluetooth, see the UE Boom 2 Bluetooth Pairing Is Not Working problem page for possible causes and solutions.
