What happened
Description
Unsupported Mode Displayed (UI Feature Request/Enhancement):
When connected to AirPods Pro 1st Gen (A2084), the app displays 4 Listening Mode options: Off, Transparency, Adaptive, and Noise Cancellation. Since 1st Gen AirPods Pro do not hardware-support Adaptive Audio, the Adaptive option should ideally be hidden or disabled when a 1st Gen model is detected.
Control Center Toggle Soft-Lock (Critical Bug):
The Android Quick Settings / Control Center tile cycles through all 4 modes sequentially (Off $\rightarrow$ Transparency $\rightarrow$ Adaptive $\rightarrow$ Noise Cancellation).
Because the hardware cannot accept or activate Adaptive mode, pressing the toggle button while in Transparency mode produces no response/action. The toggle fails to transition smoothly to Noise Cancellation or skip Adaptive, breaking the quick-toggle functionality.
Expected Behavior
App UI: Dynamically adjust supported listening modes based on the connected device model (exclude Adaptive for AirPods Pro 1st Gen).
Quick Settings Tile: Cycle only through valid/supported modes for the active device (Off $\rightarrow$ Transparency $\rightarrow$ Noise Cancellation).
Actual Behavior
Adaptive appears as a selectable option for AirPods Pro 1st Gen.
The Control Center toggle gets stuck on Transparency when trying to cycle past it, as Adaptive is an unsupported state.

Research direction
Start by tracing how the connected AirPods model determines the listening modes shown in the app UI, then follow the Quick Settings tile's mode-cycling entry point. Verify the AirPods Pro 1st Gen path and update the relevant tests or manual checks so Adaptive is excluded and the tile cycles from Off to Transparency to Noise Cancellation.
