Why did my ANC suddenly stop working?

The most common cause is a firmware update that reset the ANC settings, or the ANC toggle being accidentally turned off via the headphone's control app or physical button. Check the ANC mode in the companion app first. If that is correct, try a firmware check and then reset to factory defaults.

Why does my ANC headphone sound like the noise is louder with ANC on?

This is usually caused by a broken or obstructed external microphone. The ANC system needs to sample the incoming noise through the external mics before generating anti-noise. If a mic is blocked or damaged, the system generates incorrect anti-noise that can amplify rather than cancel certain frequencies.
