So, if your Skullcandy Indy Evo not pairing together read the troubleshooting steps written below.

Skullcandy Indy Evo is Not Pairing Together

If your Skullcandy Indy Evo earbuds are not pairing together it is typically a result of software glitches, outdated firmware, mono mode of earbuds and low battery of both earbuds and charging case. To fix this problem you should reset earbuds, update firmware, get them out of solo mode and charge for a while

1. Restart Skullcandy Indy Evo

Because it will remove minor software glitches that are mostly responsible for the problem.

Follow the steps below to restart your Skullcandy Indy Evo.

1. Firstly turn off your Skullcandy Indy Evo by pressing the power button for more than 10 seconds.
2. Then turn it on by pressing the power button for 10 seconds. 

Now put both Skullcandy Indy Evo buds in the charging case and remove them back to pair with each other. 

2. Reset Skullcandy Indy Evo 

Reset is also the best solution to fix the Skullcandy Indy Evo pairing problem. Because it will remove hardware bugs and glitches.

Moreover, reset will refresh your earbuds and increase their performance. 

Follow the steps below to reset your Skullcandy Indy Evo.

1. Place your Indy Evo earbuds in the charging case.
2. Remove your Indy Evo from the device pairing list.
3. After that, turn off the Bluetooth of your device.
4. Turn on the right earbud by removing it from the charging case.
5. Then tap the center of the right Indy Evo bud four times. The bud will automatically turn off, and the LED light will turn red. (means successfully reset, if it doesn’t flash red, then try the same process again until bud’s LED flashes red.) After resetting, place the right bud back in the case.
6. Now turn on the left earbud by removing it from the case and press its center four times or until it successfully reset. Then place the left bud in the charging case.
7. Remove both buds from the charging case and let both buds automatically connect together. You will hear a sound that will indicate both buds are now paired.

Here is another method of resetting Skullcandy Indy Evo earbuds.

3. Remove Mono Mode

Skullcandy Indy Evo earbuds have a single bud mode in which you can only use one bud. (You can only use the right bud in the mono mode because it is the primary bud.)

Single bud mode activates when you remove only the right bud from the case, and the left one is still in the charging case.

So, maybe you have done that due to which your earbuds go in the single mode or maybe stuck in this mode and not pairing together.

Therefore you should remove your earbuds from this mode.

Here is how you can do that.

To pair both earbuds to each other or deactivate mono mode first, you must put the right bud in the charging case and then close its lid.

Then remove both buds from the charging case; they will pair with each other.

However, reset your Skullcandy Indy Evo if this doesn’t work. 

4. Charge Earbuds and Case

The low battery of Skullcandy Indy Evo earbuds and their case can also create pairing problem in the buds.

Therefore you should fully charge your buds and their charging case.

Both earbuds will take only 1 hour to fully charge from 0% to 100%. Moreover charging case will take 2 hours to charge from 0% level to 100%. Also, make sure you are correctly charging earbuds and charging case.

After completing the charge, try to pair both Indy Evo buds together. 

5. Update Firmware

Therefore you should update your earbud’s firmware.

Follow the steps below to update your Skullcandy Indy Evo firmware.
