Ok but what if i only have a bulb that i need to reset? No app, no dimmer, no bridge, just the bulb. How do you reset it then?

I fucking gave up, Hue is so annoying... I had 2 lights go out FOR NO REASON.... And now i cant connect them or even turn them on... So annoying... For sure never going with Hue, for that price? Hell nah..

The gd app won’t launch. INFURIATING I hate hue

Best thing, maybe delete the app and re-install it.

Beyond annoying that this is the way to “fix “ this nonsense

What do you do if you do the bulb reet with the remote control, the bulb flashes a few times but it won't pair w the Hue App? I have the bulb in the same room as the Hue Bridge. I tried entering the serial number. Nothing. I have reset it a few times at this point but the Hue Bridge isnt finding it when trying to add.

What if it won’t connect to your phone & you also don’t have a dimmer

when i tap remove for the bridge i get a message, tap remove anyway, but nothing happens and the bridge is not removed. Also when i try to remove my account from the app, it says 'something went wrong while syncing your acocunt'. any ideas?

I don’t have a serial number on my Hue can lights because I got them used. Any idea how to reset them without the serial number?

[@JayRSwan]

Sorry, but none of this helped me reset the lights to factory. I lost connectivity to my recessed lighting, and I need to factory reset them so I can find them again in the app.

[@JayRSwan]

Nevermind found it. I have to pull the light down and get the serial number so I can search via serial number

My recessed light doesn't work had it a week

[@radialtech]

In this case probably best to return it, if it never worked since you bought it

How do you reset without a dimmer? Video wasn't helpful

[@radialtech]

If you don't have a dimmer, you can remove/add bulbs through the app. We show both ways in the video.
