Thanks for putting this together

can u add for theme,icon,dock and wallpaper please.games.

You might also include a SMS section: go!sms, handcent, chompsms.
WP7 Music Player would be a good music player to add.

Sure why not..

This is a great list. If you are looking to expand it, why not add Firefox, Winamp, LBE Security, ROM Manager, and Titanium backup? Thanks for putting this list together.

A root apps section? TB, Rom manager, root explorer, s2e, zipthemer, Metamorph, quickboot,setcpu, linpack, terminal emulator!!!

Great thread. May I suggest that you keep the sections relatively pruned so the list becomes manageable and readable. Not sure how you would decide whether an app deserves making the list or dropping off.
A few I'd like to recommend:
Angel Dialer......great/fast dialer
Folder Organiser......great way to organise apps with labels and great associates widgets
Handcent SMS......surprised this isn't there already

nice clean thread!
I'm of the same opinion as bras0782: Don't let it be ovefilled!

Xperia S Launcher and Apps Leaked (Download)

We got Hands on APKs from Xperia S including Launcher, some Widgets, Calendar and Music App and others.
you can find the download in our thread Here: http://www.pocketpc.ch/sony-xperia-s/155451-home-launcher-widgets-xperia-s-geleaked.html
--> Google Translate
Included are:
Home.apk - S Home Xperia launcher
SemcMusic.apk - Xperia ™ s music player
SemcCalendar.apk - Xperia S calendar app (slight changes to the Arc calendar, unfortunately, is not 100% liquid)
livewallpaperearth.apk - Animated 3D globe as live wallpaper, with the moon
WidgetPicker.apk - required if you want to use one of the widgets clock or OnOff
ClockWidget.apk - new clocks for Homescreen
MusicWidget.apk - new widget for the music player
PhotoWidget.apk - beautiful animated photo widget, smooth
OnOffTools.apk - new widget with shortcuts (see screens of Marc)
WeatherWidget.apk - new and veeery very nice animated weather widget, liquid completely
unzip folder and start INSTALL.CMD
Should you install something from the package you don't want to simply delete the associated APK, the script then reports an error and just skips the Part
UNINSTALL: if one of the apps you no longer want to have, you can then simply uninstall the application manager of Android (Updates Uninstall). After that as usual the original version for disposal.

Thx it work
Gesendet von meinem R800i

Anyone want to post any pics of these new widgets and Home? Im curious as to how they look before i install them. nevermind i got the idea from the original thread, doesnt look all that much improved to me, but maybe i missed some details since i dont speak German. (i know its actually not German, but i couldnt spell the proper name!... lol)

Download link is not working, any ideas

New link is up. Just try again. Pictures are in the linked thread

Does this only work with ICS?

No only with GB. On ICS it will NOT work correctly

Xperia blog mirror : http://min.us/me2BDLfmw#1o
Confirmed working on on .42 stock

about half of these fail to install on my r800x. I get "Failure [INSTALL_FAILED_MISSING_SHARED_LIBRARY]"

I've installed the music player here. The Xperia S music player's is beautiful, more smart too, but lacks equalizer... I thought it had been use same stock equalizer, but hasn't a button to activate it. Very strange...
Enviado pelo Tapatalk do meu Sony Ericsson Xperia Play.

Calendar.apk is so nice too. Try it.
Enviado pelo Tapatalk do meu Sony Ericsson Xperia Play.

Nice music player and it has equalizer for sure but it open equalizer app (look in market)
So there must be dedicated equalizer.apk for music player right?
Let us see how it going to be

why when i start install.cmd my device cannot found? R800i

Connect the device in USB Degbuging mode

When using this launcher and restarting my phone it hanged at the carrier logo and randomly decided to launch or not launch - anybody else have this problem?

Are all these apps included in the home.apk? or are they separate? All I see is the home.apk

Works Perfectly.....
Thanks works perfectly on my Xperia Play R800i .42

Equalizer gone.
Hi Guys, I installed the xperia play music apk and i found it to force close every time. I tried to install the old music app again but found the equalizer missing from the music app now. Please suggest what to do now ? Also can you tell me why the music apl from Xperia S kept on fore closing ? Thanks !

When i try to install i got this error "[INSTALL_FAILED_MISSING_SHARED_LIBRARY]" for "MusicWidget.apk AND "PhotoWidget.apk"". So why is that? How do i fix it. I attached the screenshot. Please check it.

Some difference with the TrueAncestor rom??? Just for know if i try it or not...

I got this live wallpaper from Xperia Blog and its working. [Definitely on 1+5t].
"Sony Mobile has created a new variant of its Xperia Loops wallpaper for its new 2018 handsets, including the Xperia XA2 and XA2 Ultra. If you’re looking to try this new wallpaper for yourself, then you’ll be glad to hear that the APK has been extracted and modified to work on your stock Xperia handset. There are six ‘liquid’ wallpapers to choose from (Liquid black, Liquid silver, Liquid sky blue, Liquid blue, Liquid gold, Liquid pink) and you can download the APK from the link below.

[APPS] Ported Xperia apps for Mi 5s and more

Hello guys. Coming from a Sony phone I just couldn't get used to the MIUI launcher. Every app that's installed, is on your desktop. I rather have them in the app drawer instead. If you're like me, here's a collection of Xperia apps, that work just fine and without the need of root. I haven't ported them, just found them in the xda forums and got them together.
List of the apps:
Xperia Launcher 11.3.A.0.17
Xperia Launcher 11.0.A.0.7 - square folders on desktop
Sony Launcher beta 12.0.A.0.15 - the old weather widget won't work - https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=1395089523397909042
(thanks to Ben Ling for the links)
Clock 5.2.0.243 - Play Store widget that mimics Xperia's clock and shows the alarm clock correctly.
Album 9.4.A.0.24
Album 9.5.A.0.30 - https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=1395089523397903554
Music (Walkman) 9.4.2.A.0.0
Photo Editor 8.0.A.0.11
Xperia keyboard 8.1.A.0.12
Calendar 20.4.B.0.5
Weather widget 2.4.A.0.5
Link in Google Drive.
I have tried these apps on MIUI 8, 9, 10 global dev. rom on Mi 5s, Redmi 4x and Mi A2 Lite. A2 Lite shows properly the notifications and icons on the top part of the screen and looks pretty well

I see you are a man of culture as well. Thanks for the post although I have been using them for a long time still I can use your links when I do a fresh install.

Thanks for the good words
I've also been using these for more than 2 years and finally decided to collect them in one post.
Looking forward to seeing the new Sony launcher.

I've done a repository that keeps the most recent versions of the mentioned Xperia apps. There are also some other apps like Telegram and Chrome. This repository is based on F-Droid and uses their app to connect and sync. So if you want to give it a shot, add the following repository in the F-Droid app:
http://unicastbg.ddns.net:801/fdroid/repo
This is in testing mode, no https at the moment and I can't get the descriptions metadata to work. But if you know the apps by name, you should be fine.
The server runs on a virtual machine and it's scheduled to shut down once a day for a few hours. This shut down is usually during US working hours.
Anyway, if you want to test it, give it a shot. I haven't edited the apks, for which their original signature should prove that. It's just something I wanted for some time and finally got it working.
