[APK] Xperia Play Live Wallpapers (Classic and Original)

I'm not sure if this has been posted anywhere else, but here are the Playstation live wallpapers from the Xperia Play. I currently have both working and running on my N1. Simply install them like usual.
If you have any problems please let me know.
[EDIT] These live wallpapers require android 2.3.1 or higher

Everytime i try to install the files i get a parsing error.
Any idea how to fix it ? Although : Thanks for uploading !
(I`ve got a X10 @ 2.1)

Had to reboot here to get them to work correctly. Works well though. Nice an subtle animations.
Cyanogen Mod 7 RC4

I believe they require 2.2 or higher. Off the top of my head I don't remember I'll have to double check that.
[EDIT] after double checking looks 2.3 is required for these wallpapers.
This message approved by Skynet.

Thanks for the help !
It`s sad i actually can`t use them but I`m glad they probably will work on any 2.3 version (whenever i will get it)

Works fine with my G2 running cm7. Although lwps are basically incompatible with third party launchers which is what I'm using

Working both fine on my Nexus One, thanks for sharing it

Working both fine on my N1 cm7rc2

I love THIS!! It's fcuking awesome!!

These installed fine. I rebooted to be sure but when selecting either one it says loading live wallpaper then goes black for a second then says loading again. I have a nexus s running cm7.

Hello, I am new here, I just bought xperia arc, now I would put these wallpapers on my xperia.
They are inexperienced on Android,can anyone tell me the steps to install these wallpapers?

Having the exact same issue, running a Nexus S with cm7rc2

For those having the issue of loading-black screen-loading; do they eventually load? Or are you stuck watching it trying to load forever? I don't have this issue and cannot replicate it.

Make sure unknown sources is checked in Settings - Applications, download the apps, use a file manager to find the apps on you SD card, select the app and choose install.

It never loads and if I apply it as my live background anyway, it pauses for 2-3 seconds and loads up the default Nexus live background

[REQ] Multi-User Login as on Android 4.2

does anyone know of ANY apps or mods that enable multiple user login on the Note 10.1 similar to the nexus 10 where you have your own profiles on the lock screen for multiple users?
so far, I have only found ONE app that does this but havent tried it yet: https://play.google.com/store/apps/...xLDEwMiwiZmFocmJvdC5hcHBzLnN3aXRjaG1lLmtleSJd
any ideas/suggestions would be appreciated!

Multi user login in Android 4.2 is embedded into the system at a very low level. Such a thing is very hard, almost impossible to port, especially without the source code of the ROM you want to port it to.

Yes in the app itself it can unroot, and you can download also your stock rom for your country from samfirmware as a backup

I've tested both ways now and in principle both go, but there are advantages and disadvantages of each. I would like to tell about the most important:
1. SwitchMe App:
i rooted the device with the above method.
then installed the switchme app and granted superuser access.
advantage:
Every user has a completely separate account on the tablet.
disadvantage:
with every switch between the users the tablet has to reboot.
2. terminal app:
also rooting with the above method.
create a new user with pm create-user Katja (my wife)...
advantage:
switching between the users is possible in the on / off menu and dont require a reboot
disadvantage:
same apps and save games in the apps
notification does not reset after switching the user. (this is very annoying)
After all i decided to not switching right now. and if i will do, i will use the SwitchME app.
maybe there will be a update to version 4.2 in near future. This will be genius with this fabulous tablet.
I hope i can help some of the users here.

[GUIDE] How to enable Google Now on Tap and Cards in every country [ROOT]

Hello XDA,
I'd like to share with you this quick, easy tutorial about how to enable Google Now on Tap and Cards in every country and network carrier that doesn't support this service.
But first of all you must be on Lollipop or Marshmallow based ROM (I assume you are)
And most importantly you MUST be rooted. What is root? Just Google it. Do it only when you know what you're doing I'm not responsible for anything goes wrong with the process of rooting. But this tutorial itself is not harmful.
What you need is an app called Market Unlocker (attached below) simply download and install it..... And you MUST have a SIM inserted at least one (I assume you have one already)
Step1: Remove ALL your google accounts. This is EXTREMELY important.
Step2: Open the app you just installed (Market Unlocker)
Step3: Enable the unlocker to USA Verizon.
Step4: Give it root permissions.
Step5: Reboot your system.
Step6: Press your search button (hold home button on nav bar)
Step7: Tap on get started and add your google account.
Step8: Enjoy Now on Tap and Cards.
PS1: you can uninstall Market Unlocker app but don't disable it. Just keep it enabled and uninstall it. Otherwise, you WILL lost Now on Tap and Cards.
PS2: these steps doesn't modify your EFS data which means when you perform a factory reset or clean flash a new ROM, you have to do the process all over again.

Well, it works, it has worked for a long time, but this is not a quick and easy tutorial if it includes rooting.

Google introduced Google now on tap in Marshmallow so unfortunately there is no way to enable it on lollipop.
This method enables Google now on tap on older devices but on newer devices, it enables Google Assistant so I need to update my thread but don't really have time. :/

Old exclusive xperia app not installing

So I still have an old backup of the SSX mobile app from my Z1. Problem is that is does not install. When I select the apk to install I get the app installing screen for about 30 seconds before getting the app not installed screen. I want to see how the game runs of the more powerful z5 but I run into this problem. I testing it on my friends nexus 5 and it installed fine and he could start the app but he could not play because his phone was not an xperia. Is there any way I can make the app compatible?
Thanks
Ps: I can also try to upload the apk if anyone wants it.

Just Write name of apps
+ App for specific device (Xperia) has firmware restriction
There different Firmware and library on Xperia devices
so Xperia Phones will scan that configuration which other device just check if it set to required true/false
if you have to decompile apk and recompile it with higher xperia sdk or generally android api.
:good:

replace google dialer with MIUI dialer

I was disappointed with Google dialer, so can anyone find a way to port of MIUI one,or just apk that works..because there are apk's for messaging(doesn't even open UI) and contacts/phone(opens UI) app that work but force closes when you try to make a call.

Flashing a different region of the ROM can potentially mess up your persist.img partition. I'd advise against it.

yea, im with you.. in the past i was "flash it root it guy", nowadays i don't have a reason to justify it... just want miui type dialer and messages... google one arent even black for gods sake.. usability whole another story..

Does the default google dialler for the Poco allow 2 party call recording? Xiaomi pushed some updates recently to some models to allow call recording.

Did you give the necessary permissions to True Phone? I think that might be the reason, as I don't have that problem. Just check that under Settings>Apps>Manage Apps>True Phone.

Hi,
also have the Mi9 with Global Rom 12.0.1.0(QFAEUXM) is there a way to flash the indonesian rom to get the Miui dailer and sms app and relock the bootloader after this. I don't like an unlocked bootloader because I play pokemon go that will not run with an unlocker bootloader
other question. Is it possible to remove the google dailer app with adb and install miui apk dailer app ?

Flashing the indonesian rom to get the Miui dailer and sms app and relock the bootloader after is possible, but not advisable....something can get really bad and you can hard brick your phone. As I know (not sure, I'm not an expert ), you can relock the bootloader safely if you'll do it in the same region and MIUI version of the ROM (12.0.x.0 not 12.1.x.0 - Android 11) you used when you registered in Mi account for the first time and got the bootloader unlocked.

I have installed Simple dialer, however there is no possible way to answer calls as no interface appears during the receiving call, even tho ringtone is heard therefore I'm currently stuck with the Google dialer

All his posts sound like ads for another product and none actually a solution to an actual problem.
I too miss MIUI Dialer and Messenger.
Coming from Poco F1 to X3.

goodialer had only one thing useful, it displayed name of party calling even though i did not have party in my contacts, this was based probably on goo maps.
is there way to have such functionality in mi dialer?

I instaled the Magisk Module, it works, but when I do calls with Miui Dialer, it just appears the Google Dialer
