Some Common Problems & Troubleshooting

Left/Right/One side of the earbuds has stopped working

If this happens, it may be because it is low on battery or it did not connect correctly with the device. To fix this, you can do the following:

1. Try charging the earbud that is not working or both, placing them in the charging case.

2. Try factory resetting the earbuds.

3. Check if the earbuds are operating within a normal working range

If that doesn’t work, the earbud is probably faulty, and I can go for a refund or replacement of it.

Left/Right/One side of the earbuds has a low volume

If this happens, it may be because the earbuds are dirty or the volume is set low. To fix this, you can do the following:

1. Try cleaning the earbud using a cotton swab or carefully clean the mesh with a pin.

2. Try factory resetting the earbuds.

The microphone is not working

If this happens, it can be because the microphone is muted, or the earbuds are badly positioned. To fix this, you can do the following:

If the microphone is muted, check the device microphone volume. If that doesn’t work, that means that there might be a defect in the earbuds, so try replacing them or getting a refund.

The earbuds are not connecting to Windows/laptop/PC

If the earbuds are earbuds not connecting, it can be because the Bluetooth on the computer has a pairing problem. To fix this, you can do the following:

1. Try disabling Bluetooth from nearby devices >>> then activate the pairing mode of the earbuds, pair and connect earbuds from Settings >>> Bluetooth & other devices >>> Add a new device >>>> Select Bluetooth.

We hope you now know how to operate the earbuds from the above I9 TWS manual. Want to know anything about the earphones? Do not hesitate to ask in the comment section below.

  1. What type of charging cord is used to charge the charging box? If it isn’t USB-C, then what type of port is it?

  2. Why is the device taking long to charge
    I have been charging it but it’s not yet fully charged after hours what can I do

  3. When I try to plug the charger, only the case indicator blinks red light and not the earbuds. And when I pull out the left bud the case flashes blue. Tried to reset but no solution.

  4. The instructions for the i9-TWS earbuds say:
    Plug the earbuds into the charging case,THEN TURN ON THE CHARGING CASE . . . .
    (How do you TURN ON the charging case? – If that’s supposed to mean “plug the usb charging cable into the charging case”, then why don’t the instructions say “plug the usb cable into the changing case” instead?

  5. My AirPods went off last Saturday but couldn’t charge because the charge got spoiled. I got the charger yesterday and charged it but the AirPods have refused to connect to my phone. I tried forgetting the connection, pressed the Airpods power button for 15 seconds all to no avail. Does that means it has spoiled or what is exactly the problem?.

  6. Cannot get right bud to turn on.No matter what I try, this set is stubborn beyond belief. The left bud works, but is no way doing so in the fashion that the manual says it should. Have never had any lights go out on their own during charging. I want to exchange these for a reliable pair!

  7. Right one works fine but when I try pair it with the left one there’s only a short red flash then nothing but appears to be charging in the case.

  8. No matter how I try, these do not stay charged long. They did when I first got them now I can’t seem to get more than 30 minutes out of them.

    1. you charged them for too long. If you charge it for too long, you mess up the battery. Don’t let it die, either. That messes it up even more.

  9. I’ve been charging my airpod for hours, but it still get turned off when I turn it on….. And the blue indicator doesn’t come on when I plug my earbuds inside the case…..

    1. Your problem is you charged it for hours. Take it out as soon as you notice it’s fully charged.

  10. İve just bought a new i9 tws .. the problem is .. just as i get them out of the case after being the turn off and i cant get them turned on again no matter how long i press the buttons .. ive tried several solutions but nothing happens
