So after having quite a few problems with cutting off signals in my left inear, I found a notch inside the mmcx connector.
If you turn the mmcx it clicks or kinda snaps at a certain position.

Currently only Eddict player app is supported, all other apps have been discontinued.
This is unfortunate, the connect app allowed us to select the filters and connection protocol. This essential, unless the other app has these features, it was a side load last time I used it.

Also, I'm less likely to ever buy or recommend a Shanling device for this very reason.

The Eddict player allows access to all these settings, it acts the same as the connect app.

I finally had a chance to try the player, as far as I can tell it does not allow me to select a particular code, just chose from a selection of codecs, defaults to aptX, how do I get it to use LDAC? Also the instructions page is empty, there used to be a cheat sheet in the other app. I may be nitpicking here but I think selecting a codec in a clear manner is essential to folks in the community.

@Twangsta, assuming you are using an Android source device… there is a free third-party app on the Google Play Store called “Bluetooth Codec Changer.” I’ve had luck using it to get LDAC connection in the past with other devices. It is worth a try to see if it works for you and the MW200.

I think we all will have to succumb to the realization that Shanling has moved on from the MW200. Once all of the remaining MMCX units are gone this one will be “sold out” (i.e. discontinued) most likely.

Let us know if you have success with the codec changer app.

If you want it to force certain codec, just disable the other ones.

Yes, android device. Thank you, I shall try it. I haven't been paying attention... so in general all MMCX devices are out? Makes sense, the connectors wear out and have drop outs eventually I'm guessing. Really appreciate the comment, thank you again.

No dice.

Not necessarily, although 2 pin connectors are what the majority of iems are using now.

I’ve just noticed that the MW200 with 2 pin connectors have been sold out for well over a year, leaving only the MMCX units left in stock anywhere. My guess is when they’re gone the MW200 will be finished.
