They're not like your typical overears. It seems like the pad is glued to the interior of the headphone, and isn't replaceable without taking the headphones apart (though I may be wrong).

I tried removing the security screws thinking that there might be a way to dismantle the casing and get back under the piece the pads fasten to, but removing the screws yielded no results and I still don't know how to take this thing apart without breaking it. Not to mention I'm not sure what my next step would be.

Anyone know how to rectify this? It's a great pair of headphones and I'd hate to have to replace it over such a small cosmetic issue.

EDIT: I should clarify, these aren't like the JBL E40's or the E55BT's where you can simply take the earpad off and replace it. The earpad and phone seem to be one integrated structure. I haven't seen anyone take these apart so I'm not sure if there's a proper way to do it.

UPDATE:

This is what the cup looks like beneath the foam. It seems to be a clear plastic plate, underneath which the inner fabric of the pad is glued, beneath which is navy blue disk. The outer leather of the pad was fastened to the underside of this navy blue disk, and I think if I can separate the disk from the rest of the cup I might be able to refasten it, but so far I haven't found a way to do this.

FINAL UPDATE (SOLUTION)

Thanks to @oldturkey03 and this video, I was able to fix the problem.

It turns you you just have to tear this ear pad right off. I was afraid of pulling it further because it's tacked down and I thought I was breaking it, but it just snaps right off with no trouble.

From there you just reglue the loose leather. I used superglue and did the four corners first, then the spots in between those corner, and then everything else in between that hadn't been glued yet.

The end result was this! They look and feel and sound just like they did before! Hooray! I guess it wasn't so complicated after all :P

When i plug it in, the power light turns on and off after a few seconds. Usually when you plug it, the power light blinks. I found out it is dodgy because when i plug and pull it on a certain angle, it charges, but then if i let it go, it stops.

is there a way to fix this? or any replacement parts like a replacement charging port. Is there a tutorial on how to open the headset?

I’m trying to decide if this is a mechanical issue or software issue.

The problem occurs across multiple devices, after unpairing/repairing, and with and without the Wear app. The software is up to date through the Wear app.

The bud is not visibly clogged, but is there a way to take off the metal sound screen for cleaning? The teardown video doesn’t show this.

It isn't transmitting. All connections are ok.

Any advice??

The adjustable band on the right side of my Beats solo3 wireless headphones won’t slide back up. It seems to have overextended and could be caught on something? The audio and Bluetooth connection still works perfectly, just can’t get the side to slide back into place. Any ideas on what I can do to fix it??

The left side of my headphone is not working now. I charged it fully but no use. I tried connecting it with the cable but still no use. I've no idea what to do as it's out of warranty and JBL is telling me to pay 75% of the MRP. Any solution guys?

Appreciate your assistance

Regards,

Josh

I have been using my HyperX Cloud 2 for several weeks now. However, a few days ago, the cable got stuck, bent and the tip of the 3.5mm TRRS headphone jack split in two.

I have ordered a replacement 3.5mm TRRS jack, but haven't yet figured out the correct connections to solder on the jack.

Could anyone offer help in finding these and possibly give some advice on the soldering?

Kind regards

Mic color: Red and gold

Speaker color: GREEN, BLUE, RED AND GREEN

It was during a normal usage and no brute force/abuse was applied. Just took it off my head. I guess it was 3 degrees Celsius outside and this is just plastics, so maybe that’s why it broke.

Anyway, could you please offer some advice on how best to repair these.

Thank you.
