Sound improvement on Android 10, WW-17.2018.2012.434 firmware

Option for Windows 10:

1. Install Minimal ADB and Fastboot. (I installed adb-setup-v1.5.2).
2. Go to: Settings - About phone - Find the build number and tap on it several times until you see: "now you are a developer."
3. We go: System -For developers - USB debugging - Turn on.
4. We connect the phone to the computer (without turning off the phone), a message will appear like: enable USB debugging - allow. Android Composite ADB Interface will appear in Device Manager.
5. Run PowerShell as administrator and enter the commands:
adb devices
adb shell pm list packages
adb shell pm disable-user --user 0 dk.icepower.icesound or, if you want to completely remove: adb shell pm uninstall -k --user 0 dk.icepower.icesound

6. After restarting the device and check the sound.

I managed to fix the sound.

This helped. Thank you.

I thought asus not recommend it. But hell, it did make the audio better than before.

Hi @Deannnnn

I guess all im asking is to *retain* the audio output of pie in A10.

It will be a perfect upgrade then.

I downgraded to Pie 060 😔
Got OTAs till 087.
Only when one downgrades to pie, one can know what's missing in the audio department!
Even 060 pie is better than 438 a10 in terms of audio output.
My analysis of a10 audio (wired only)
1. With icesound - totally unbearable. Only highs, with less mids and no bass.
2. Without icesound - below average, still not acceptable. Even an 7k phone has better bass output than .438. The sound is just loud, but if you use an equaliser, the overall audio output just decreases! So weird. Never heard such superficial bass.

Audio definitely needs improvement on a10.

On the positive side, i did not face any major bugs in A10.

However, the back navigation gesture (swipe from the edges) suddenly stopped working once 🤷‍♂️
Had to restart to fix it.
