Force factory reset of Oura ring (second hand)
If your ring won't connect to the app because you received a second hand ring that was not factory reset you can still force a factory reset via those special steps.
Step 1: Perform Flips to Factory Reset
Take your ring off the charger if it is already placed on it. Then do the following:
(a) Place your ring on the Gen3 charger
[Wait ~two seconds] (Not longer)
(b) Flip the charger with the ring on it 180° upside up (bottom down)
Wait until the charger's LED turns red
(c) Flip the charger with the ring placed on it 180° upside down (bottom-up)
Wait until the charger's LED turns magenta (Purple)
(d) Flip the charger with the ring on it 180° upside up (bottom down)
Wait until the charger's LED turns yellow
When the charger's LED turns yellow, the factory reset process has started!
Wait for a few minutes until the charger's LED starts blinking blue. This indicates that the ring has been factory reset successfully!
Step 2: Forget the Oura Ring from the Bluetooth settings
Open your phone's Settings
