Astell&Kern ACRO CA1000 Carriable Headphone Amp
Yeah the title 'amp' doesn't work. The name is also a bit on the awkward side - when you use all ports, it looks more like an Astell & Kern Kraken 🤣 The sound really is nice. I listen to it whenever I have some time to relax and enjoy. They should've used another OS theme though... I mean it...- -kent-

Astell&Kern ACRO CA1000 Carriable Headphone Amp
The reviews I saw / some posts about the device say it's a weird device that doesn't have a direct place to put it. Don't remember which reviews it were though - it was right before my first post on this thread, since the reviews made me more curious about it lol I really like it too. It has a...- -kent-

Astell&Kern ACRO CA1000 Carriable Headphone Amp
That actually helped. I did a restart before, but the forced restart helped out. It's still weird though - say, could you also ask the dev team if they could change the gain level to be remembered depending on the headphones you select as output? It feels like a missed opportunity there - you...- -kent-

Astell&Kern ACRO CA1000 Carriable Headphone Amp
Ah, finally someone who could help ;) Thank you. I'm still a bit confused, since none of my other players sorts my albums (without any album artist) in "unknown". Then I will do my best to sort them...manually and album by album- -kent-

Astell&Kern ACRO CA1000 Carriable Headphone Amp
That is weird, since I tried it again and can't. After you click on the icon you see the gain list - can you change them when you click on one? Because I can see the list, but the green check icon does not respond- -kent-

Astell&Kern ACRO CA1000 Carriable Headphone Amp
@JasonNYC I also found another inconvenience - having plugged in two headphones, the amp section of the output select (dropdown in the notification center of android) isn't responding. You can see which amp you selected, but you have to unplug a headphone to be able to select the amp again. It...- -kent-

Astell&Kern ACRO CA1000 Carriable Headphone Amp
That would be great, since it works flawless on my SR25. Speaking of the SR25, I still hope we get the Crossfeed from the ACRO. It's a really nice feature and something forgotten over the years.- -kent-

Astell&Kern ACRO CA1000 Carriable Headphone Amp
Anyway, in the end I bought the ACRO CA1000 and was able to test it out a few days. There are a bunch of things I should tell you @JasonNYC - the player crashed several times with my SSD attached directly to the data port of the DAP. By crash I mean: I went into the album view of the player...- -kent-

Astell&Kern ACRO CA1000 Carriable Headphone Amp
@JasonNYC - I actually have a few questions. I couldn't find any info anywhere, so you could help out 😅 I was wondering if you could hook up an external HDD/SSD to the USB-C data port of the ACRO CA1000. "Data" could mean anything without a specification, so a direct info would help. The other...- -kent-

The Sony 40th Anniversary Walkman Thread
Same here. I think that pretty much does exactly that. Say... Does anyone ever figured out how android works properly with a DAC? A few posts earlier someone said how much energy a DAC consumes / how fast the current charge of the walkman dies. After a million threads around the web and a...- -kent-

I feel no lag at all. Actually I'm surprised at how much internal it feels lol When I tried an sd reader on my phone, it would just stutter and build up heat. But with the walkman it's non existing- -kent-

The Sony 40th Anniversary Walkman Thread
I saw the same settings, but since I bought it a day after the latest update, I'm not sure if this is a new addition to the settings or not. For the battery another tip - use Greenify. It also works with non rooted devices, so it will help getting out more juice. :) Still I hope someone will...- -kent-

Nova Launcher. :) I used some tweaks in it to get it that way.

Wish the BlackPlayer EX would do it as well but it doesn't...- -kent-

The Sony 40th Anniversary Walkman Thread
In what way did you install the firmware? Because without root, I don't think it will change much. As far as I can think of, there is just a preference file inside of the root directory that limits it. I haven't bought mine yet, but only because I'm waiting for my CC bill to arrive. Would you...- -kent-

The New HIBY R3 II is here. 4.4MM Jack; Improved Sound and Bluetooth.
Oh wow, this one actually did the trick right away... I wonder why that one works right from the start and the other just ignores everything...? *edit well I was able to apply the theme, but as it turns out, most of the images are now out of line. Like the top image in the menu is cut, and...- -kent-

The New HIBY R3 II is here. 4.4MM Jack; Improved Sound and Bluetooth.
Yeah the latest version is 3.0.2 but I don't see any differences. Still don't get why it's not creating the file though. I wonder if something is missing in windows which isn't listed in the guide (I'm not a nativ windows user - I don't have a windows machine at hand so I use my VM instead)...- -kent-

I mean this color here: So the color is hidden in vg_listview_all.listview ? There is also another problem... I try to make a theme (.t file) but it always just drops out a 1kb file in the corresponding folder. I'm not sure what I do wrong there - I did everything the guide said, but it just...- -kent-

I tried, but I fail in coloring the actual media bg - like where the list view from the songs are (and pretty much every other list view area) - it's always that eggplant-puprle. I already changed all of the "xyz_bg.png" files, but for some reason I don't find the one responsible for exactly...- -kent-

@Snoopy112 - Say... is it possible to get a "just black" theme as a default? Hiby thought of many custom stuff but not the one thing. A black menu / black top interface. At least I haven't managed to find any options doing just that. And the themes might be nice for some, but they don't suit my...- -kent-
