I unfortunately don't have an answer for you, but this was something I never considered so I'd like to get some clarification: are you saying that using the system reset button needs a password to factory reset the device?

I never considered that forgetting my password would potentially brick the DPT-S1, so I find this pretty shocking. I'd always just assumed that I could factory reset it just like any other Android device.

If true that the device can't be factory reset without a password, I consider this an inexcusable design flaw on Sony's part. I can't think I've ever come across a piece of hardware that can't be reset.
