    Hi all,

    I have exactly the same issue: Cannot factory reset my Play5 (Gen1), it shows the white light and I cannot do anything to go through the reset procedure. Also when trying to install nothing happens when I press play & + buttons, so it seems it's completely stuck.

    Please advise, this is the second time my play 5 malfunctions... first time I received a replacement. Very frustrating.

    Thanks in advance,

    Jack:?

    Jack,

    I'd recommend getting together with your retailer, or contact Sonos by phone.
