Connect Bluetooth headphones

Had Beats headphones connected and working. Now they will not connect and message Xre-22005. The headphones are not connected to any other device and I have reset both many times. What next?

@user_564cb3 Hello and thank you for reaching out. Sorry to hear you are having issues with connecting your beats headphones. Have you tried to forget the headphones and reconnect them or do any other troubleshooting steps?

Yes. Forget and reconnect. They are listed under “Bluetooth Devices” but keep saying they can’t connect.

Thank you so much for this information. What type of box are you trying to connect this too? Is it a DVR, normal HD box, or the FLEX box?

Thank you for clarifying that. I'm sure you've already followed these steps, I just want to doublecheck and confirm with you to rule out the basics. When you connect the Bluetooth headset to the box are you following these directions:

 

  1. Press the xfinity button on your remote, then select Settings (Gear icon).
  2. Navigate to Device Settings > Audio > Bluetooth Devices.
  3. Select Bluetooth Devices. ...
  4. Select the device that you want to connect from the list displayed, then press OK on your remote.

Yes. That is the order of h to hinge I have tried. I have also connected the same headphones to other devices and confirmed they work. I have also turned off all other Bluetooth devices in the area and confirmed that the headphones are not connected to any other devices.

The box won’t connect to any Bluetooth headphones! Tried multiple pair and same message for all of them.

I am having the same issue. Was working fine last night. Possible firmware update at 2am causes a Bluetooth failure? It can discover my speakers but won't pair with them. But then it will add the device back to recently connect as though it connected and immediately disconnected. Hope this helps you solve this xfinity!

I have been having the exact same issue with my sound bar that had always worked. Sound bar works with my headset and my phone so it’s not the device. I have unpaired the device (forgetting it) and now reconnected it only to receive an error message [XRE-22003]. I’m using a flex box.

I have an XI6-A box.

My headphones used to connect just fine. Over a month ago, I got error message of XRE-22005. Persisted with that error 1-2 days, then started error XRE-22003. Tv Box will pull up to search for Bluetooth devices, keeps discovering all headphones I try but will not finish pairing with any of them and always gives the same error code. Tried restarting and system refreshes done from the box, sent from the app, and from the support site. Tried power refresh-unplug, wait, plug in, try again. All pairings still fail.

Now, Bluetooth menu quit putting the headphones back into the recently connected list after failure but still discovers them, doesn't finish discovery mode, and still will not pair to any of them. Still same error code xre-22003.

I do not see Bluetooth options on my X1 DVR tv box in the living room and never tried to hook up to that one before now, so not sure if it ever had the capability to Bluetooth or not, but Bluetooth in bedroom worked before, it should still work so I can't figure out what the issue is, but I'm obviously not alone in this problem.

This needs to be fixed!!

I have had the same issue for months. Just gave up trying since calling in for support took a long time and just repeated all the steps I have already tried with no success. Very frustrating when you think of how much money we pay for services.

This is certainly not the experience that we want you to have and we're here to help! Just to clarify @user_5b0cc3 what type of headphones or speaker system are you trying to connect with?

Hi @user_36b3ea the error code you are getting above is XRE-00250 - Something is not quite right - X1 Error Message if you are having issues pairing either earphones or air pods here is a really helpful link https://comca.st/3I9BAP6 to assist. I would recommend resetting the modem as well that may help.

@user_fpr1990​ I contacted customer service, they sent me a new Flex box, and that solved the issue for me.

Same issue here. The box worked for the first week I had it then Bluetooth stopped working with the same message previously mentioned. 

This is the worst streaming device I've ever used. I'll continue to use my $50 Chromecast that works flawlessly.

afaik only the DVR XG1v4 and the xi6. note that these boxes have no volume control so your blue tooth device must have ability to control its own volume.  The connection is a session so any break (turning off the bluetooth headset for example) will make you have to go through the pairing routine.

There is no option for bluetooth connectivity on my

X1 TV Box

I have navigated to Preferences/Device Settings/Audio - there are only options for Audio Language Reset adn HDMI Audio Output
