Whenever the tutorial is this level of video quality alongside emotional quality, then you know it's someone who found a fix that will work because they got frustrated about it just like the rest of us. Thank you so much for this man, I just plugged my base station in and everything, good thing I found your video in the first few minutes of searching.
Your vid should be way up the list , as after tons of searching I found yours and it’s the only one that has a point of reset while on the base and only one that worked , thnx allot wish you the best of what goes around comes around spirit ;-)
Amazing content, appreciate you. Literally watched 4 to 6 other videos ranging from 2019-2021 and nothing worked but this. Others had the factory reset button instructions given incorrectly aswell. Was told to hold the two EQ button and DB button for 15 rather than the DB and Volume up. Did the factory reset properly like you said and proceed to update properly. Thank you once again you are a life saver
Two years later after and you're still saving the day my man! Thanks for this sooo much. I got off of work hoping to chill a bit and the head set didn't work. Not a great start to the evening. But your process here works!
FUCKING GODSEND! so many RUclips videos and Reddit posts later and finally something worked. For anybody having issues from other videos, I’m on PC not mac or a console. The biggest difference between this video and all the others, is they’re telling me to download Astro command center from the website and this video had me do it straight from the play store. Thanks so much bro
YO!!! Many thanks for this!! This was the only fix that worked. I was at my wits end, numerous emails back and forth with Logitech, phone walkthroughs, countless youtube videos.. Logitech said the same thing, "oh well youre outside our warranty period, you have to buy a new set" . Even asked that I send them my current set, and purchase a new one at full price. I was 5 minutes away from buying new ones, as Logitech said it was the base that was the problem so I purchased a new one... ofcourse that didn't work.. wasted my money. Before purchasing a new headset, I searched one last time and found your video.. and it worked!! Man, you saved me $300!!
That's beautiful. This worked when all the other ways failed. It seems that the critical part is having the Astro command software from the MS store plus doing the reset with the headset sitting on the base. I was extremely happy to see that update finally work. Thanks kindly. Still relevant in 2024.
OMG thank you! Astro couldn't even tell me the right steps. I've been struggling with this for like 10 hours. I have 2 of these and I was afraid to update my other one.
05/06/2022 still works and only tutorial that actually helped. No other video or comments online mentioned the hard reset while being mounted! Thank you soo much!!!!
Dude, thank you so much. Your research and time saved me and so many other people. I was stressing and it didn’t take too long to find your video I followed step by step and worked perfectly. Again, thank you so much
I was goin to take mine back to the store, just days from christmas. After i packed it all up i had a last moment check on RUclips. This video reminded me of the early 2012 when videos like this existed. Ive checked the online supports for this headset, no one is talking about a two button press reset. This worked it took 20 seconds and i didnt even do it in the dock, light changed from orange to white and it played audio, had a discord call with my best friend, she confirmed the microphone was working. Been grinding wotlk classic ever since.
two years later, 4 hours of pulling my hair out with all the bs on reddit, and other youtube, and your advice works. its absolutely insane that the astro website STILL has a corrupted download file for the command center. thankfully your video is still up as im pretty sure this is the only valid advice for anyone with these firmware update issues.
YO THANK YOU SO MUCH I tried it once and it didnt work but then I rewatched the entire video step by step and holy it actually worked. THank you again man your a legend, Astro didn't do anything useful when I asked them for help. Its been a month without my headset and I finally found your video :) subbed and liked
YOU ARE A GOD SEND!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH! I have read a million articles, watched a metric ton of videos and NOTHING has worked until I came across your video! I thought I was out of luck! But this is EXACTLY what they needed! Thank you for making this video! Keep up the good work!
omfg. You are my lifesaver. And I love you. This is my third pair of A50s. I love them. My first pair lasted several years, but I finally ended up breaking them because I'm an idiot. Then I bought another pair. They lasted two years, but they were never quite right (shorting or something all the time). They were refurbished. So, finally, I bought a BRAND NEW pair. Immediately, this shit happens. I was LIVID. But I'm happy now. You solved my problem
Thank you! none of the guides on Astro or Reddit actually say the headset needs to be in the base unit when you do the hard reset! This sorted it out for me after hours upon hours of looking for an answer!
Your the best bro, I almost spent $300 today to buy a new one but I said hey let me try again and find a video and hope for the best and I came across so many videos and right when I was about to give up I found yours and it worked, thank you so much man ur the best
It worked, you are the man. FYI Astro helpdesk is not helpful at all. Make sure you update the base station first, then hard reset the headphones while in the cradle, then update the firmware. Great video and thanks again for the assist!
Bro, I’ve been dealing with this off and on for months. Why did I need to download the command center again just to get this to work? I would of NEVER though of doing this without your video. Thank you so fucking much, homie.
TBH dawg I didn't want to try the windows app because I have had issues with it in the past I actually use the ACC software but this time it failed me and I followed your steps and it worked!! THANK YOU!!
Yooooo !!!!! I watched like 4 videos before getting to yours, so mine actually reset and started working back up as soon as I hit the game and that other button at the same time and then I was able to use them again ! Thanks a lot brother this really helped
BRUH !!! I spent a whole day on this switching between every conceivable solution on the net then found your video which solved it in 3mins. Friggen Legend !!! shot cuz
Broooo thank you so much, none of the videos that i watched worked like this, but i keep on my point that this shit should not happen to a + 300$ headset, fuck astro, but it worked perfectly.
Thank you so much! I waste more than an hour trying to update. The way pressing dobly button and game button simultaneously at the station still works on 2022!
It worked, thank you so much. First try it would sit at 0%. Tried it again then it got stuck at 50% and couldn't reset device. Did a factory reset like you said and it worked. It's insane how many issues there are with these headsets and the firmware updates.
OH JEEBUS. I have been dealing with this problem for the past day or two, doing the same thing you did, but not in the EXACT same order and now my headset is working again. THANK YOU SO MUCH AND YOU ARE GETTING A SUB!
Hey Kennybgh i was wondering if you have the astro a50 gen 4 and if so what is your current firmware for headset and base station. My headset is 36179.43 and base is 36799.43, my buddy has a completely different versions and alot newer version. I hope you can help.
@@Canuck770 I do have the Gen 4 and my headset at the moment is 39964.43 and base is 40372.21. I literally just reset it the way it was shown in this video and it worked again. Hope your problem can be fixed!
brooo your video helped a lot none of the others explain as much as you did and as well as you did and they weren't showing the buttons clearly nice work and great job on the video keep up the amazing videos would like to see more
I fucking love you dude. I hope that you and your career progress. I can’t tell you the amount of videos that I have come across and you were the one that was able to actually help me.
Wow, been trying to figure this out the past 4-5 hours. Thanks sm dude for this tutorial, knew I had the right video when you were describing with my same frustration 😂
Dude just like others have said had issues tried astro support to no effect. Your video was the perfect fix thanks bud For the price of these you'd think there would be a lot less hassle getting them updated. I love these hedset but there is no way i'm buying antother
Thank you so much!!!! I had watched plenty of videos with no success. I was so annoyed as this headset costs a lot of money. You have saved me a lot of money :)
This absolute hero and his 6 minutes of fame, informed me with more useful information than 6 separate emails with Astro customer support! How can they have so many damn issues for just updating a headset?! This video really does work - ignore any instructions from Astro, none of them helped at all!
Logitech owns astro now. Logitech is a grandfather of peripherals and somehow manages to fail in the same aspect. Sometimes if its not broke dont change it
I want to let you kn ow that still 2023 THIS is the only way that it worked out for me, after trying using another laptop or manualy nothing worked, this is the key right here!!!! THANKS AGAIN FOR YOUR TIME AND EFFORTS
Wow man thank you so much. It worked. I nearly sent my headset away for it to be repaired but this fixed my problem. Literally the only thing i changed was use the Astro Command center from the Microsoft Store instead of the one provided on their website which seemed like a 32-bit outdated mess. Appreciate you man. You earned my sub
This 100% worked! Thank you so much man! I was prepared to get another headset because, I keep experiencing problems with these and that was the last straw for me lol.
honestly, I had this problem for a week, I clicked on the video, when you started explaining how to do the factory reset thing, I took my headset, put it back in the charging station and then it started working again, I doubt it's a valid solution but shit it worked so thanks bro XD
Holy shit-balls-of-goodness. This actually worked. I have been fighting with a brand new headset and logitech support but the damn microsoft store app fixed it WTF Thank you soo very much!!!
So as u know theirs a website version & the play store version of the software. Now if you guys follow his video step for step, where by after u do the factory reset by pressing the buttons on the headset then hit update it successfully works however after, u may notice that after the first update, the update button may still appear, DONT click, as it screwed up the headset again, what it’s asking you to do is update the base station itself now the problem is that it never gets installed, instead u have two choices, if ur headphones work n ur fine with it do nothing, if ur anal bout your base station, use the website version of the software.
Yeah, I agree. I hit the download button again because the base station wasn't "Up to Date" (but the headset was listed as 'Up To Date")....and just like you said...it bricked my headset again because it failed to download the update. I had to re-do all the steps in the video. I'm not going to bother with the Astro website version.
Whenever the tutorial is this level of video quality alongside emotional quality, then you know it's someone who found a fix that will work because they got frustrated about it just like the rest of us. Thank you so much for this man, I just plugged my base station in and everything, good thing I found your video in the first few minutes of searching.
first few minutes?!?! The fuck! I have been putting up with this bullshit for the past 3 and a half hours!
You're a lifesaver! I spent hours trying to find a solution and you're the only one who's given me a working fix. Absolute legend

Holy shit-balls-of-goodness. This actually worked. I have been fighting with a brand new headset and logitech support but the damn microsoft store app fixed it WTF Thank you soo very much!!!
Thank you. I also sat there for three hours trying to figure it out. You're the goat.
BROOOO YOU ARE LITERALLY A GENIUS IT ACTUALLY WORKED!!!!!
So as u know theirs a website version & the play store version of the software. Now if you guys follow his video step for step, where by after u do the factory reset by pressing the buttons on the headset then hit update it successfully works however after, u may notice that after the first update, the update button may still appear, DONT click, as it screwed up the headset again, what it’s asking you to do is update the base station itself now the problem is that it never gets installed, instead u have two choices, if ur headphones work n ur fine with it do nothing, if ur anal bout your base station, use the website version of the software.
Yeah, I agree.
