Remove Solo Mode

Skullcandy Indy Fuel earbuds have a single bud mode in which you can only use one bud. (You can only use the either right or left bud in the mono mode.)

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

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.
