Tried unpairing and re-pairing and also a soft reset, pairing still persist.
Not entirely sure what fixed it, but it stopped entering pairing mode now. It's S10+ and I noticed it doing the pairing thing after version 7.0 was installed.
Did you try turning off your phone?
Try a hard reset - press and hold top left (through the assist screen) until it powers down. The restart.
Which phone? Which OS. What software on the Marq?
