- This is a short video on how to fix the Logitech G435 and any connection issues that you might have when connecting to PC. This headset should be able to easily switch between Bluetooth and Lightspeed wireless, but it's a bit of a pain and doesn't work perfectly. So follow these steps to get it working.
Thanks to Xavier Rodriguez for his comment on how to fix it on my review - • Logitech G435 headset ...
His steps are:
"I just bought G435 and I was having the same connectivity issue. Finally got it fixed by doing the following:
1. Shut down headphones
2. Insert the dongle
3. Press power button for 2 sec( green light will blink)
4. Press power + mute for Bluetooth pairing mode(blue led will blink)
5. Hold mute button to connect to dongle( led will turn cyan)
To go back to Bluetooth mode again power + mute
Good luck!"
The Logitech G435 is a dual connectivity headset that offers both wireless and Bluetooth connection options - just not at the same time. It's insanely lightweight, has a funky design, really good sound considering the price and nicely shaped earcups that make it delightfully comfortable too.
Logitech G435 Highlights:
Deep and clever earcup design
Bluetooth and well as Wireless options
Incredibly lightweight and therefore easy to wear
Good range of colour options
Decent mic quality
Logitech G435 Lowlights
Beamform mic picks up far too much background noise
Lacks any virtual surround sound unless you use Dolby Atmos or Windows Sonic Sound
You can't use Bluetooth and wireless at the same time
Connection issues with wireless dongle pairing
No G-Hub tweaking!

Theres also a firmware update to fix the Nintendo switch connection issue. Anyway, i have the same color headphones as you. Do you have any tips on how to clean the headband?
Sadly not. I'm actually not using them anymore. Thanks for the tip on the Switch.
hold the on and off button with the mic mute button until it flashes fast
If it is dust and stuff like that you have to buy something to make it as easy as possible it, there is something that does that at IKEA but not sure of name. Otherwise not sure

Olá tudo bem vc consegui atualizar para conectar no nintendo switch?
The fact that I can now actually hear this video through the headphones, instead of just reading the subtitles is a great thing. Thanks!!!
Glad it helped!
Same here, hahaha
yes really is so good thank you very much
THANK YOU !!!!!!!!
@@TheProvokedPrawn me too thank you do much
I was struggling to figure this out for over ten minutes on my own before I finally checked for a video. Yours was the top result in my feed, and by following your steps, the headset finally got connected! Thank you so much for this video!
I aim to please
Fml, this actually saved me from throwing my headphones into the bin, was getting really frustrated of trying to fix them not letting any sound through. Spent hours updating driver's, checking settings, control panel, usb ports etc etc 😅Thank you so much for this video 🥰
Glad to help
true for me happend the same i lost my all day trying i got antry and i try to see more and more videos and still nothing but this t ime when i see this video for me they start working is amazing tank you for saveing me too :) it was super good help video
I randomly find myself coming back to this video for support. I cheaped out buying this headset and even though it does what it needs to it gives me so many headaches dealing with it. To put it in simpler terms-“sometimes issa good, sometimes issa 💩” Thank you for all the support. I downloaded this video since it’s the most helpful one I’ve found.
I tried this twice first time didn't work but second time did, I was about to just give up and forget about it you are a lifesaver
My headset wouldn't connect to my PS5 all of a sudden and I had just downloaded a new game and couldn't believe they broke. This fixed it. PS5 doesn't support bluetooth audio but this video let me figure out that I needed to switch it back to lightsppeed.thanks!
Thank you so much I have been having this issue for a month now and no other video was able to give me clear instructions like yours.
Glad to help. Hope you enjoyed enough to subscribe 🦐
just bought this 435 and im struggling to connect to my pc but thanks for this video saved me from being frustrated lol thumbs up
The LED when it turns to Cyan starts blinking and it wont connect to the dongle. How do I connect it to my pc with the dongle in it. I followed the steps and nothing worked besides bluetooth pairing mode.
same, have you found a way to fixed it?
@@nocturnal3884i got the same problem and there is no way to fix it, lightsync adapter is broken
@@гопед that's sucks, im trying to get a new one (not logitech of course)
@@nocturnal3884 im gotta get wired 😂
@@гопед thats better
This still works! For some reason my headset hasn't been charging right and I was looking up issues on how to fix it, but that's when I found out about lightspeed mode. Now I don't have to worry about keeping a charge the entire time! :3
I have to edit this whole reply, because at the time I wrote it I still didn't understand fully how it works, but it's actually really simple.
The headset has 2 modes. Lightspeed (dongle) mode and Bluetooth mode. You switch between them by holding down the MUTE button for 3 seconds. If the LED turns blue, you're in Bluetooth mode. If the LED turns cyan (pale blue), you're in Lightspeed (dongle) mode.
The dongle mode just works. The Bluetooth will need pairing, at least the first time. You enter pairing by holding down the MUTE and POWER buttons at the same time until the LED starts flashing.
The part that confused me, was that you could pair it to Bluetooth even in dongle mode. But it would not reconnect by itself. You had to pair every time. If it is in Bluetooth mode it will reconnect to the device it was connected to last. You can also pair it to multiple devices. Which of them it will actually connect to depends on various factors, but if it ever connects to the wrong one, just go into Bluetooth settings, make the headset enter pairing mode and select it from the list.
I haven't had any problems with it, since I figured it out.
Most useful thing I’ve read about this headset I was tempted on buying a new pair I could have sworn I broke them
@@moneyteam2069 Actually after finally trying to connect it to my PC, I figured out I was in the wrong mode.
It was blinking pale blue. That's for the dongle. Then I finally got it into Bluetooth mode thanks to this video (dark blue LED) and later realized that now it automatically connects to paired devices - which is what I was expecting from it...
It's also very easy to switch modes and use it via the dongle. The mute button
It makes sense now - by default it was configured for the dongle. And I was connecting it to Bluetooth in dongle-mode. In fact I'm surprised it even worked! However this isn't explained anywhere I've seen. So it was a hassle figuring it out. But now I turn it on and it's instantly connected to my tablet or my PC depending on that setting. I have no more complaints about it. Except the lack of instructions. It's a great headset.
@@deezeembi just bought it and i have a problem that any solution couldn't fix it so my problem is that my headset doesn't recognize the adaptor simple as it seems i didn't find any solution sadly
@@mazen1797 Did you change it into Dongle mode?
The light which blinks dark blue in BT pairing mode has to blink pale blue, almost green and when connection to dongle is established, it will be a solid color.
You change the modes by holding down the mic mute button at the bottom for a few seconds until the light changes color. Make sure you're in the right mode.
@@mazen1797 If nothing else works, try resetting the dongle while headphones are in dongle mode. Unplug and replug the dongle.
If it still doesn't work, check if it's recognized properly in Device Manager under Sound, video and game controllers - Has to say "G435 Wireless Gaming Headset", otherwise you have a driver problem.
Major shoutout to the guy in the comments for reminding me to open subtitles and it actually worked thank you so much
I did it steb by step but the cyan light still keeps blinking ... My laptop recognizes the donlge but when i click on the headphones on the sound option i receive no sound ... Please help
MINE TOO
same
yup same here, appears its a problem for everyone
yes
man this headset is total garbage, ask logitech to get a new replace
You sir are a legend! My girlfriend borrowed my headset today and when she gave them back I couldn't get them working for love nor money!!!!! I eventually managed to connect via bluetooth but was miffed that the dongle wasn't working.
Needless to say I didn't realise that there was a wireless and a bluetooth mode on the headset!
Holding the mute button, who knew?! NOT ME!
Glad I could help!
Just picked these up for myself and couldn’t figure out how to connect them. Very useful video thanks!
Glad I could help!
My G435 keeps disconnecting randomly (it blinks cyan light). From time to time it will start working but the problem randomly reappears. Somitmes restarting my PC helps, sometimes they just randomly connect and disconnect after random amount of time. Could you help me? Thanks in advance
i have the same problem
It happens to me. :C
Sameeee
I don't know if you are still experiencing these problems but I think that the wireless Logitech mouses cause this problem. Since i started using my G305 i have been experiencing problems with the headset. Im trying to use it now withouth the mouse and everything seems to be working. If the headset disconnects again then idk it must be a Logitech issue and it should be refundable.
I just had to follow the steps in the video description, cuz i had no audio whatsoever. Now I have! Thanks!
I followed the steps but it still failed to connect
Solution????
Redo muti times cuz I had to too
They just finneakey or how ever u spell it, just keep playing around with them… I figure if u get it on the right setting for what u want and it isn’t working keep it on that setting turn them off turn them back on and they’ll usually connect
Yeah same mine worked fine until it decided it didn’t want to connect with them dongle any more
Same
I have these exact headphones and I wasnt using them for an entire YEAR, just because I holded the mic button for too long...thanks.
Thanks for the super thanks. Glad I helped you!

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR TELLING ME ABOUT THE SWITCHING BETWEEN BLUETOOTH AND USB MODE, I was so confused on why my thing wasn't working and it was because i accidentally put it in bluetooth mode
👍🏼👍🏼
Bro THANK YOU, it has a habit of connecting to my phone instead of my PS4😂
thank you!!!! I was about to throw my headset in the trash bin.
My 3 year old son had it and it didn`t connect, after he gave it back to me.
In the end, he had switched to Bluetooth mode. I didn`t read about the trick with pressing the Mic button...
Enjoy your day!
No problems. The design is pretty frustrating!
I done all of this and the microphone still isn't work and I tried a lot of things and cant seem to fix it could you please help me

thanks bro, you saved my gaming life (acually whole life)
I aim to please
thank you you solved my problem in first 40 seconds of video. will watch it till the end anyway till as a small thank you
You are welcome. Thanks for the favour.
This helped me now. I was having issues with my G435 when trying to use it for a Zoom call. I was worried it's broken. Sheesh I just had to press the mute button for a few seconds and it connected again. I did do a restart and disconnect of the Dongle before this. Anyways, this headset is both great and a nightmare sometimes.
Nice. switching modes with the mute button worked first try, after leaving it in the box for 8 months cause I didn’t know how to connect it.
I know that im a year late but this helped so much! Thank you!
Glad to help
wow... All that stress.. and the only issue was to hold the mic button... thank you for your help ;(
Glad it helped!

If it didn't work or you didn't understand try clicking the power button until the LED turns green then stop then long click the mute button, the LED with eventually turn cyan. Don't click anything else.If it still didn't work then I'm sorry I don't know anything else.
Appreciate it bruh explained better then 3 videos I watched on it 😂👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
That happened with my headset but it's still refusing to connect to my pc. For comparison, I just connected it to my Android for RUclips videos and it works perfectly fine but it's refusing to work on my pc.
Thank you so much I had it all set up on my PS5 but I still couldn't hear until I tried these steps out
Thanks for the Video, this just fixed my Problem :)
This was perfect, problem solved at 0:55
I accidentelly pressed the "mic-mute" for over 2 seconds *smh
CHEERS
I lost the usb and bought a new one but i don't know how to get them to pair
This issue was infuriating and I didn't have a good fix apart from unplugging and trying it again which has been unreliable to date. Thank you!
Only watched the first minute! Already fixed! Thank you
Thank you SO MUCH for this oh my god. I feel so stupid. I've been sitting here for half an hour trying to work out if it's a driver issue. It was just a human issue. I appreciate this so much
