Solid blue persists during setup

Applies to

App: myQ iOS/Android; menu labels vary by release
Hardware: Garage door opener with built-in myQ Wi-Fi, not a separate hub

Before you start

Authorized account/device owner; safe physical access.
Record the model and displayed LED or error before changing anything.

Why this can happen

Phone connected, but Wi-Fi handoff incomplete
Automatic mobile-data switching or wrong Wi-Fi password

Work through these checks

Check 1
Keep the phone near the opener; verify the password and signal at the installation point.
What you should see
Correct network is available.
Your next branch
Weak coverage: use signal troubleshooting.
Check 2
Temporarily turn off iPhone Wi-Fi Assist, or Android Switch to mobile data/Smart Network Switch where available.
What you should see
Phone stays on setup Wi-Fi.
Your next branch
Restore the setting after connection.
Check 3
Restart the opener using its model instructions, then repeat Garage Door Opener setup in myQ. A non-battery opener can be unplugged for 10 seconds.
What you should see
Solid green confirms connection.
Your next branch
Battery-equipped units require the documented power sequence; do not open electrical parts.

When to stop

Persistent solid blue after these checks: contact myQ support; report the model and phone OS.
