Hello - thank you for the great project.

I came looking for an app like this because my WH-1000XM3 seemingly randomly changed the function of the NC/AMBIENT button from the very useful "switch between noise canceling-levels" to the useless recording that says "the google assistant is not connected". According to this article: https://helpguide.sony.net/mdr/wh1000xm3/v1/en/contents/TP0001703075.html I can change that back with the Sony App, but because of Sonys history of installing rootkits on their customers' computers and/or forcefully taking away features and making products worse with forced firmware upgrades installing the official app is not an option for me.

The adjustment of noise-cancelling works well on my WH-1000XM3 with this app, but if you could add the ability to remap the NC/AMBIENT button from the "Google Assistant is not connected"-recording back to adjusting the noise-cancelling levels that would be AMAZING!

Thank you very much in advance

I'm not sure if I'll ever have the time to do it myself, but if someone else makes a PR I'll merge it. About your problem - the Sony app does not forcefully install firmware updates. If you'd like, you can just install the app, turn on airplane mode to make sure it doesn't send anything back home, change the mode, and uninstall. Sadly, Sony doesn't embed any cool sandbox escape vulns in their apps, so you should be safe :)
