Method 2: Clean Case Charging Port
Just like connector pins, it’s quite possible that the charging port of the case is itself not clean. When the case charging port is not clean, the case will not change or will charge very slowly.
So take a microfiber cloth or a cotton bud dissolved in a cleaning solution and clean the charging port.
Method 3: Try Other Charging Cables & Adapter
Nothing Ear comes with a special failsafe mechanism in the charging case so it does not get overcharged. This means that if you connect the case with a charging cable with high Ampere, then it will not charge.
So make sure you use the original USB-C cable that came with the box. And also use a charging adapter rated 5.0 volts & 1.0 Amp. Anything more than 1.5Amp might damage the charging case and may perforate the battery as well.
Method 4: Update Firmware
Since the initial launch of Nothing earbuds, the company has been taking feedback from users and improving accordingly. They have been rolling out firmware updates for the earbuds to include new features and fix issues as well. So make sure you update your earbuds to the latest version to fix the charging case issue.
First, open the Nothing Ear app and navigate to the firmware section.
Here check if you have any pending updates available.
Click on the update firmware options and follow the onscreen instructions.
Method 5: Discharge Earbuds
If you’re still facing the charging issue, then it might be due to the charging cycle. Sometimes the case might not charge until it is fully discharged first. So make sure you use your earbuds to the fullest until they are fully discharged. Do the same with your charging case as well.
Once both the buds and charging case are fully discharged, try to charge the case and it shall charge again. This is more likely a trick instead of a troubleshooting method, but it has worked for many users.
Method 6: Reset Nothing Ear Case
In some cases, the issue of Noting Ear case not charging can be purely a technical glitch. In such cases, you can fix the problem with a simple reset. Here’s how you can do that:
- First, remove the charging cable from the case (if any).
- Place both earbuds in the case and close the lid.
- Now press and hold the case button for 30 seconds.
- Open Bluetooth settings on your smartphone and forget these earbuds.
- Now you can pair the Nothing earbuds again, and the reset process will be complete.
Method 7: Hardware Damage
If none of the above methods help you, the issue will likely be hardware damage. The damage can either be in the charging chipset or the charging battery which is supposed to charge your Earbuds. In both scenarios, you have to connect with the Nothing Ear service center.
Conclusion
