The claim failed for me the first time, so I quit the app, and the bulb was waiting for me to finish the setup, where I was able to name it and claim itģ.5 hours and an insane amount of frustration.Set up the bulb via the WiFi network, once the bulb is connected to your home’s WiFi network, re-connect back to your home network on your phone to finish the setup.Ensure “Auto-Join” is de-selected for any other network nearby.Ensure “Auto-Join” is selected for the bulb’s network.Turn airplane mode on w/ WiFi on and connected to the bulb’s WiFi network.Let’s reset and try again.”Įdit3: I’ve tried everything in this post, and nothing has worked I Just Cannot Connect My Bulb WhatsoeverĮdit4: Jesus christ on a cracker I got it working. ![]() Is there any way to solve this? I’m thinking of just returning the bulb and trying a different brand, this has been an absolute disaster.Įdit: Did the new version of the app just launch? I’m wondering if that has something to do with all the issues I’m having.Įdit2: I put my phone into airplane mode while connecting to the bulb’s wifi network and was able to at least get to the WiFi network selection menu but now I get an error that says “An issue has occurred while pairing your light to the Wi-Fi. I’ve gone as far as to download the BlueStacks Android emulator and attempt a setup on there, but I cannot “claim” the bulb from the app on the emulator. The bulb can still be turned on and off at the switch and functions like a standard LED bulb, but with app control you’re able to create schedules, themes, scenes, pair with music, and group with other LIFX. If I’m connected to my home WiFi, the setup can’t find the bulb with the QR code. Simply screw in the bulb, download the LIFX app, and connect the bulb to select one of the dimmable 16 million color or white options. ![]() I’ve tried the HomeKit setup, but it only works when I’m directly connected to the bulb’s WiFi network. I now need to connect to the bulb’s WiFi network, which I attempt to do, but iOS prevents the connection because there’s “No Internet Connection” so I’m stuck not being able to connect to the bulb over WiFi. When I try to setup the bulb, the first ask is to set it up using HomeKit… I skip that because I’ve never used HomeKit and I don’t want to start now (I’ve got everything integrated with Alexa). I already have a bulb set up from over a year ago that works fine. I received a Mini Color in the mail today, plugged it in, turned it on, and opened up the app. ![]() I’ve been working at this for over 2 hours and I am incredibly frustrated.
