Noise cancelling headphones

Sparkypaul — Fri, 29 Jan 2016 20:08:58 GMT

Hi all. New to the forums.

I received my Z4 at Christmas and loving it. Today my daughter bought me a pair of noise cancelling headphones (Sony Mdr-zx110na). The headphones sound great but I am unable to switch the noise cancelling option on in the settings. It is permanently greyed out. Am I doing something wrong?

Thanks

Try to clear the SmartConnect app data.

1. Tap the Application screen icon.
2. Find and tap Settings > Apps.
3. Swipe to the All tab.
4. Find and tap on the SmartConnect app.
5. Tap Force stop > Clear data.
6. Restart the phone

That model controls it's own noise cancellation.
The nc features are all contained within the headset itself including the on off setting.
Refer to the manual to learn the correct opeation for nc power.

Bottom panel of the left earcup contains your power options..
AINC is the noise cancellation
