oh, i remembered that. and i said "if you are talking about android system level by going under system settings > apps > force stop and disable. then no, cause the unit was password locked."
 
i do not know if there could be a place i can find a machine that allows me to disable it. but i will definitely put it back on my to-do list though. i mean to try it out.

Yeah, by all mean do try it out. Beside, if you choose to use the sound adjustment app, I do think the best would be DSEE HX together with surround studio :wink: just what stated in that post

I use my setup as per how the ZX2 arrived in. With the Sound adjustment app still active, but every enhance turned off. I feel that DSEE and Surround sound changes how the audio is intended to be delivered. The only time I play with enhance is either EQ or those offered by Cowon.

Yeah, I prefer the app disabled, and same as some others :D. It is also understandable how different preferences prefer different setup though. I personally love the pure sound so I have to disable it.

first thing i do in the morning after turning my ZX2 on, is disabling the 'sound enhancements' app
last thing i do at night before turning my ZX2 off , is enabling the 'sound enhancements' app
 
even if the sound is the same (although i don't think so) , i like seeing my vol level at 25-30%

people should try it out and decide for themselves , sound is something completely subjective in the end

what if where he go it from set a random password he doesn't know at all?, My cellphone carrier does that with certain apps, they set a password so you cannot diable them

great practice. i used to count how many clicks of the volume + button to get the exact same volume previously used. kind of OCD like.

i asked and the store sales person did not even know about it being password locked. well, as a demo unit in sony store, i think it is pretty reasonable to always enable it just to show how good the enhancement settings are.

The password it set for access to settings, I don't think any carrier does that, either he set it, and forgot it, or the unit does not belong to him/or he got it from someone who insert the PW without clearing it, or the unit is a test/display unit.
 
A hard reset should clear the unit to the original setting.

it's not OCD , just practicality
 
if you shut down ZX2 , when you turn it back on the sound gimmicks go to work again even if  the app is disabled

so if you enable the soundapp just before turning it off , when reopening it next day you just disable the app and you are back to pure non-apps ZX2 sound
 
seems like a hassle , but it's just an extra 30''/5 taps more

That's the reason, store demo unit, I wonder how that got out of the store.

apparently the hard master reset is not the same as a xperia, it took me along time to get it done.
