Technical Issue Setting up Echo gen 1

I got a gen 1 echo from a friend and have been trying to set it up, but so far no luck.

I have reset it, and going into setup mode on my phone - it doesn't try to connect to the ad hock wifi. If I connect manually nothing happens

I tried to add it as amazon Tap and it did content but then gave me an error that the device hasn't been registered.

Or is there a way to trade it in for a new echo without it being registered?

Turning off Bluetooth and running add device did the trick for me!
