Hi Boots, We are really sorry if you are experiencing a power issue with your WF-1000XM5. This is certainly not the news we'd like to hear from you. Let's try to isolate and address this problem by following the troubleshooting steps below: Note: When the headset is not worn in your ears for about 15 minutes after being removed from the charging case, the headset turns off automatically. In this case, turn the headset on by tapping the touch sensor of the headset or by putting the headset into your ears. The headset units will also turn on when they are set into the charging case and then removed from the charging case. • Make sure the battery is fully charged. • You cannot turn on the headset when the headset is stored and being charged in the charging case. Remove the headset from the charging case to turn on. • Charge the charging case. • Set the headset units into the charging case, and close the charging case lid. You may be able to resolve some issues by setting the headset units into the charging case. • Clean the charging ports of the headset units and charging case, then set the headset units into the charging case and check the status of the indicator on the charging case. For details, visit the Help Guide of the WF-1000XM5 (can be found in Sony's support website and search for “Maintenance”. • The headset cannot be used during an automatic headset software update. Set the headset into the charging case and close the charging case lid, then wait for about 5 minutes. • Reset the headset. • Initialize the headset, and pair the headset and the device again.

Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Straight from Sony: Press and hold the reset button on the back of the charging case for about 20 seconds or more. After about 15 seconds, the indicator (orange) on the charging case flashes for about 5 seconds. Then, the indicator on the charging case turns off and the headset will be reset. And just being a tech guy, don't hate me... but uninstall and reinstall the app.
