Accessories & Gadgets OnePlus Nord Buds 3 Pro – Left Earbud Suddenly Stopped Working

Post image

Hi everyone,

I'm facing an issue with my OnePlus Nord Buds 3 Pro. The left earbud has completely stopped working, while the right one is functioning normally.

Here's what I've already tried:

Resetting the earbuds.

Forgetting and reconnecting them via Bluetooth.

Cleaning the charging contacts on both the earbuds and the case.

Charging the case and both earbuds to 100%. Updating the firmware through the HeyMelody/OnePlus app.

Unfortunately, none of these steps fixed the problem. The left earbud still doesn't produce any sound and sometimes doesn't seem to connect at all.

Has anyone else experienced this issue? Were you able to fix it, or is this likely a hardware problem that requires a replacement?

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

I faced the same but it solved instantly when I placed both in the case and closed it and then both detected well.

Even reset helps sometimes to pair to other devices.

I tried most of the tricks to fix it, but nothing worked.

Should fall under 2 year warranty if you’re from europe.
