live with walkman for xperia play - Xperia Play Themes and Apps

Live with walkman app
extracted the live with walkman app and widget off the new sony ericsson Wt19 live with walkman phone tft 2.3.4 file it will install and update over the built in music player on the xperia play without having to change permissions if want the iconic sony walkman experience.
View attachment SemcMusicWalkman.apk
View attachment MusicWidgetWalkman.apk
note; this is not the old w8 red themed version.
for root users get the full walkman experience by adding the mega bass tweek see this thread ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1319533 )
note; you will only hear a difference in sound if you have good headphones (eg, big dj headphones or the older type of in ear) not the stock sony headphones that come with the play, as i think they produce sound (bass) in a different way.

Thank you for the upload, but it looks exactly like the default music app lol

yeah pretty much does lol but like the icon and the widget better at least its nice to have. now we have 2 of sonys iconic gadgets playstation and the age old trusty walkman in are back pockets + a phone of course.

I believe you should kindly edit your 1st post and say to all that people should apply the megabass tweak 1st before installing the walkman goodies
I installed the walkman stuff 1st and then flashed the megabass tweak and walkman was removed and replaced again by the stock music app Had to install walkman again but its okay
Will the megabass tweak stay after installing though? Im having a hard time telling the difference yet
Thanks!
EDIT: Tried to reboot to check and.. it reverts back to the stock music app.. do you still see it as Walkman after rebooting?
Now i dont know after reboot if
1. The megabass tweak is still on my system
2. If Im really having the walkman experience..
EDIT2:
Got it to work, installed it first, used Titanium backup to convert it to user app instead. Rebooted, flashed the megabass enhancer
*Cheers*
will try a second reboot

You don't have to factory reset or wipe cache in the recovery the mega bass tweek should just install also you will only hear a difference with eg Dj headphone the ones you get from Sony are not really compatible as they produce sound in a different way

Where do i insert the cassette?

Folks, the MegaBass tweak consists of pushing two files to a /system folder.

Do I need a root for this version of Walkman ?

no just install the apks with a file manager if dont like it go to applications and uninstall updates. the mega bass tweek is only for root

is there any different betweent the original music player with the walkman version? For example the lyrics, and any screeshot?
Thanks!

Same problem here, it says not installed on my R800x

OMG!!!! With these and Mega Bass Tweak, it does hugely improve my music experience on my Play!!! Love it so very much!!!
I love listening to music, this is the main reason why I still stick myself with iPod Classic. But right after I applied this, my Xperia Play has such a great improvement in Bass and it totally increase my music experience with this little monster! I don't store many songs in my SD Card as I mainly use my iPod Classic but I have scrolled through many songs I have in my Play and their basses are super good now!
This is the best tweak I've met so far. You will need such a hi-end headset too enjoy the improvement here.
Thank you very much. VERY VERY VERY Recommended for the music lovers!

SUCKS im a music lover thx for rubbing it in, do i have to up date to get this app? How would i be able to update over the internet, i dont have this phone activated i cant OTA is: (

I'm on .42 firmware and I could install them without any probs. I don't think you need to update your FW to get these.

Physically, it doesn't change that much. Honestly, I could only see the different of the icon when I install this .apk music player, the whole program is completely the same for me.
I don't think you need any screen shot.

Not at all, but since there is no more changes than the appearance, you don't need high end headphones to install what amounts to a skinned stock player

I didnt mean it like that, i would just love to get it working on mine. Any one know what i would need to get it installed on my device. Thx. :/

MIUI Music installable .apk

ok this is the MIUImusic.apk that was dumped from the miui rom
the difference with this version is that i have resigned it so that it can be installed like a normal application for those of us who do not have root access or for people who do have root access and are just to lazy to manually place it in the system
Instructions:
1. download the SignedMiuiMusic.apk
2. place on your sdcard
3. run the .apk via a file manager like astro
4. install and enjoy
http://www.mediafire.com/file/fqwulytwlf5qgwo/signedMiuiMusic.apk

Works on fascinate dj05. Thanks!!
Works great on nexus s. Nice music app
It even works great on the Xperia X8 of my girlfriend! Thank you!
/edit: one question: is this apk different from the Miui Music of Darkys v8?

i think its the same only the background is blue not purple.
the whole idea behind this is that all the other miuimusic downloads require root access to place the apk directly into the system folder, by resigning it, it allows people to just install it without root like a normal market type application, which i was surprised no one had done before
but yeah pretty sure its the same miuimusic build as in darkys
What's so good about this player ... I do not see any features different than the stock. Actually it seems like it has less features than the stock..

stock android player ?, it has everything the stock one has as far as i can tell

its just personal preference its android its all about choice

I just deinstalled the Miui Music on my SGS via SGS Tools and installed this one. And you are right! They are the same. No differences, besides of the color. And I prefer the blue one much more
And I LOVE the Miui Music Player! It looks fantastic, it is easy to use and the automatic (and fast!) lyric download is great!
I hated the stock MP3 Player on my SGS. Even Mix Zing or Cubed did not fully satisfy me. I always prefered the iPod App on my iPhone 3g.
But the Miui Music Player is just awesome (for me)!
Works great on my x10,also perfectly fits phone own blue theme!
Thanks a lot!

Any chance of a LDPI version?
Go to admit this player is stunning.
I didn't see much difference from the Stock player, then I started to really play with it.
The lyric download is very accurate.
Love the little sound bars when playing and the widget is nice and compact and even shows the artwork.
Genius...

i switched from miui to ttpod as well.
ttpod has better lyric support (bigger display screen for lyrics, can select lyrics if more than one version exists) and it can play music from a specific folder.
also, ttpod doesnt have the visualization on the play window which appears sluggish on my phone on miui player.
cons: ttpod doesnt have a widget.
Does anyone know how to get last.fm working? That is the only thing holding me back.
I like it
Works great on a EVO. I think the EQ is cool, i like eye candy
THanks for your hardwork! This is awesome.
I tried MIUI and the only thing I liked about it was the music app and the contacts/phone app.
Can I request if you have time to do the same thing with the contacts/phone app so that I can install that as a separate apk also?
Or if you don't mind. can you PM me the steps on how you ripped and signed it and I can figure it out =).
Great work!
Works great on x10

the biggest con for me with ttpod was there wasn't a now playing screen. That's frustrating beyond belief. If I select a song, then start fishing through my library, I should be able to get back to that song and album view with the touch of a button. Also, it needs to be more customizable. I hate that background.
MIUI is cool. I like it. I'm at a point now where there a few music players I like, all have pros and cons, and so I just take the smallest one for memory purposes.

Honeycomb Music app

Anyone using the Honeycomb music app? Im giving it a try it installed just fine for me. Works good and looks really nice. Give it a try, just google it.
Just got it. it works great and is better looking than the stock music player.
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA Premium App
where is the apk?
Just Google "honeycomb music player apk". A bunch of links out there.
I like the player but the thing I miss is the ability to use the Inspires Dolby or SRS sound enhancements. They really make a difference.
I'm using it. It's pretty nice

Sometimes a really good pair of IEM's will cure the need for sound enhancers. IE7/8, Westone UM3, Shure 500 series. These top off the rack IEM's are why i love digital music.
i tried a couple of places but it never installs right for me
I just installed it two things bug me though. I there any way I could get it working as a replacement for the stock music player? Like making it work with the lockscreen and work right in the notifications area?
It's much better than stock even though it can be glitchy.

You would have to remove the stock app to make new one default.
I get the pause and play buttons on the lockscreen, is that what your talking about.

It must be because i'm still using sense. I'm going to flash a different lockscreen and see if that fixes it.

Atrix 2 Music Player Sound Quality Improvement?

Is there any way to improve the sound quality, its not horrible but Im wondering if it is, on here Ive seen something like this for the galaxy S2
"samsung-galaxy-s2-sii-via-dsp-manager-cyanogenmod-7-music-player" guess you all will have to google it without the quotes because I cant post links right now since Im new, but it should be the first link that comes up.
Do I need to have CyanogenMod installed (Which we cant right now of course) to use this or is it just the player ripped from there and I can install like a regular rooted app
If I'm not mistaken it should just be a simple apk. You can dump it in your system apps folder or install it normally. Those apps.are just heavily skinned and tweaked to work with a broader spectrum of devices. If.you get the music player can u upload it here as well?

Yeah, go to settings/audio effects and you can set two different profiles, one for the phone speaker and one for the headphone port, check it out.

By default the music player has a bunch of horrible sound effects enabled. Turn them off and I think you'll find it's much better.
settings - audio effects
thanx for the input I went through and compared it with the stock and poweramp and im not noticing an extreme improvement in the sound to justify removing the stock music app Ill just stick with poweramp and i did turn off the audio effects and it does sound much better too
Really the music app im referring to isnt that great either to me its simple which is ok but I like the functionality for poweramp better ie.. player screen available when locked etc... but Ill try to remember to post a link up once Im back on my comp but if you dont want to wait for me to post the app up you can google what Ive got in quotes and it should be the first link
PA is my music player of choice too.

Inbuilt EQ? Does this matter since we have DSP Manager? I don't think so. A argument for the stock music player is the nice integration into the statusbar, but the rest of the UI in my sight is horrible. It isn't even compatible with changed LCD Density. I feel much more comfortable with the Google Music UI. But that is a personal opinion and thus we can't say this, or stock music, or what else is better.
I've attached the newer version of google music. Extract and simply install. No need to push it anywhere.
EDIT: Upload doesn't work. Everytime the forum says "Upload failed." I'll try later
EDIT2: Upload succeded. P.S. I had two apks when I looked into my download folder one with version 4.0.9.509 and one unnamed that was actually newer: Version 4.1.511
@ taraen
ya...u are right. It depends upon personal opinion but I have opbserved very cleanly that definitely default music player's inbuilt equilizer is really better than any other equilizer that we install in our phone. I usually set this combination in my default music player
euilizer- classic
sound effect- wide
On this combination if u listen music then its really awsome. I tried so many different equilizers but no one matched sound qulity that I got from default music player with above settings.
Edit:
I tried most famous power amp music player. It is really better but not best as compared to default music player in terms of equilizer sound quality.

I have tried around with your settings. They sound good, but hence they don't have any bass they don't fit my taste of music. I simply don't manage to get some bass out of these earphones without making everything sound muffled / dull / how_you_ever_want_to_describe_it

Sorry for not being that precise. I know DSP Manager, and I'm using it with Google Music. With that I don't have any Problems. But as vishal24387 posted his EQ settings with the stock music player EQ I tried again to find some settings that fit my taste of music.
Well!!!so good!

Still think that Walkman-Player and Noozy Studio 3 sound better, but there are some issues like id3 Cover Art, exported PAMP-Playlist wont work and UI of PAMP is just better to use.
