Noise cancelling stopped working on your headset
Noise cancelling needs battery power to work — it's the first thing that stops when the battery gets low. Charge your headset completely and test it again. If charging doesn't fix it, your computer or phone can not be connecting to the headset's noise cancelling feature, and a restart solves that.
Noise cancelling is a feature that uses the headset's battery to actively cancel out background sounds. When the battery drops below a certain level, the feature shuts off automatically to save power. If the battery is full and noise cancelling still won't turn on, the software on your phone or computer needs restarting to reconnect to the headset properly.

Skip — I just want a technicianCommon mistakes to avoid
- Not fully charging the headset — it needs to be plugged in until the indicator shows completely full, not just until it stops draining
- Pressing the noise cancelling button once and assuming it's on — you need to press it multiple times to cycle to full noise cancelling mode
- Trying to use noise cancelling in airplane mode on your phone — some features disable automatically in airplane mode
Signs you need professional help
- You've charged the headset fully and the battery indicator shows full, but pressing the button does nothing
- The button lights up and the headset makes the activation sound, but you still hear all the background noise
- Nothing has worked after restarting your device and updating the firmware
