Sure. Hold the volume down and power button at the same time for couple of seconds till it's blanking or something. Or try to use the reset button beneath the player (the small button near the charging LED).
did the reset and same issue.. in fact I noticed that the player is engaged as soon as it boot up and completes the scan, yet the play button hasn't changed to a pause button. the buttons function, the swipe function works the player makes sound, but the bottom of the display is unresponsive

I did all that and no luck... I cant recalibrate screen because no access to settings. perhaps I do have a dud
what I find strange is that the player starts playing on boot and the play pause button was never pushed (is that normal) and the button does not change from the play to pause Icon

things like that happen... I have no experience with this device, so I thought I would ask a few questions. if it needs repair, so be it. I was looking for a DYI player and thought I would give this a try
Although I alphabetize the SD card with DriveSort software, folders inside other folders are never sorted in alphabetical order. Does that happen to you too?

Hello captain blaze,
I've forward your issue to my trusted source regarding the screen problem. He suggests resitting the screen ribbon cable. If that still don't work, you'll need a new screen.
Or your issue could be as simple as a faulty ribbon cable... BUT the cable is attached permanently to the screen, so you will need to buy a new screen.

Well, depends on many factors. On sound quality, I can't answer. Since:
1. I don't have the Zishan DSD.
2. I did a review for the dual AK4493 and not the AK4497 version. So it's not on par with the DSD.
The pros of T1 compared to DSD, are:
1. USB type-C
2. Touchscreen (as long as you're using it right, it is much better than using physical buttons all the time
3. Changeable DAC module (well, not really though).
But the cons compared with DSD, are:
1. T1 isn't op-amp rolling friendly
2. Can't be used as USB DAC (yet)
If you have the DSD Pro, you don't need to rush out your wallet and buy the T1 with any module versions. Also, my friend told me that T1 AK4497 sounds good as the DSD Pro(both using MUSES02)
Hopefully this can help you with the ideas of purchasing a T1... or not.
In both stock versions of both the DSD Pro and T1 not sure if “sound quality” is a correct term to use because neither sounds inferior only different. The T1 the vocals are more in the foreground and the DAC to me sounds “warmer.”
I believe that the T1 is/was a necessary bridge between the DSD Pro Ak4497 to “T2” Ak4499 in my opinion to iron out the kinks. The layout of the T1 is “mapped” out better with less wasted real estate in a smaller impact size that doesn’t compromise sound quality (imo) which is a step in the right direction for a portable music player on-the-go for a majority of Zishan Users!
As far as an upgrade If you have the DSD Pro there’s no need to upgrade unless you’re a Zishan Fanboy (like me).
If you don’t have either here’s some thoughts I have about both strengths and weakness of both the Zishan T1 and DSD Pro.
If you looking for a robust, hard-to-break player with pretty good battery life sans modding go with the DSD PRO.
If you like portable compact music player with some minor to major annoying touchscreen kinks (Spectrum varies from users’ patience and usage) that has a more intimate soundstage with foreground vocals and sounds warmer go with the T1. Keep in mind also that the T1 is also more prone to damage with its less robust casing and vulnerable touchscreen with the lack of “touch” sensitivity compared with what people are used to from our modern smartphones.
There’s no clear cut “winner” only differences. The DSD PRO is definitely better in terms of durability. And the sound differences are really more nuance than actual sound quality with personal choice being the real decision. Both sound nuances and quality can be altered by changing caps and op amps since both players are DIY friendly.
i dont see the adventage on the DSD pro over T1, both of them have no room for biger op-amp. i acctualy like the DSD pro with the V5I (but i couldn't close it back) but still prefer the T1 with muses02
I do, with the AK4497, and to me the T1 sound way better. my only real issue wiith the T1 the lack of USB DAC (yet)
