Hi There! I have a concern which may not seem to be critical to everybody but to me it is, In the walkman application (Xperia Z) when we like a song, it shows the title, the artist and a default track id link, which perhaps shows song details (artist, album etc) on facebook. In my case I am unable to get the link and therefore songs which I like are just shown up as text status updates on facebook. I reinstalled track id, deleted & once again created Xperia with Facebook account, reinstalled the firmware, repaired through PC Companion but nothing seems to be working ! Hopefully its a bug in 4.2.2 built number 10.3.A.0.423. Please let me know your experiences!! Am I missing on something??
Also to let you know, download music info works flawlessly!

Anybody can confirm whether they see a track id link when liking a song on walkman?

didnt notice this, but they may have moved it to track id's app instead
if you like a song through track id it will show on FB as track id blah blah song being liked.
so technically spitting the walkman like and the track id like separate.
Yes.. On track ID it works and shows a link with details but as far as I know walkman on other Xperia models shows a default track ID link and shows proper info regarding artists, album on Facebook.. I don't think Sony wants to leave this option incomplete in Xperia Z! Otherwise they wouldn't have given the like option in Walkman..

Can you please confirm what happens in your Xperia Z. Is my handset the only one which got issues with this??

Same
I Have a ZR with similar issue. Today I updated my TrackID app and still the same issue, so I charged my phone while off, then after turning it on, I tried again and was lucky To get a trackID Link on the post. But what's not good is that, I tried it again on some of my songs and the TrackID link did not show again. I think there is a problem between the Walkman app communicating with The TrackID application.

Can someone please give me the latest Sony music app apk? The one on my phone is always giving me an "Internel" error when i try to login with the creds which i have created. The app on my friend's phone works fine.
I raised a support message, and they said clear data and restart the app, you'll be asked to update, but no such thing happened.
Thanks in advance.
Someone please?

Hi, thanks a lot for the effort you've put in, but I am not talking about the Walkman app. There's a Sony Music app on the Indian Xperia Zs which enable you to download and stream songs for free from Sony's music catalog. I wanted that. Sorry, but thanks.
I need some help with regard to the Sony Walkman app. It won't recognize a song (910 files copied to my phone, 909 songs available) and off course it's a big hassle to manually find the song.. Anyone know 1) a way to find the missing song, 2) why it's missing (read something about weird symbols in id-tags or something). Thanks in advance!

Where did u copied the songs? SD or main memory? If its SD card just take it out and insert again. If its a main memory make
sure the folder is visibile by non root file commander. You can also try to clear cache and data of walkman app in settings.

Maybe the song is in some other format that doesn't come under songs in the walkman app..perhaps it's recognising it as a ringtone or stuff..btw it's just one song lol...a number I could live with..

Yeah, i know... It just bugs me I guess.. You 'fixed' it I guess, by searching for the format, I found that the folder contained 909 songs, but iTunes contains 910 songs (used Synctunes). Will try to find the missing song in iTunes now. Thanks!

Spoke too soon: Windows explorer tells me there are 910 songs in the folder, but when I select 'sort by type', I have 903 mp3's and 6 mp4a's. So one's missing, but when I scroll through the folder when I sort it by name, I don't see anything extraordinary.. I know this is not really a Xperia Z problem, but I guess I'll just share it right here, in the hope someone knows a little more
Just please don't rip me apart and feed me to lions if this has already been discussed, search isn't returning anything.
Couple of days ago I got a notification about Walkman update, so I said why not and clicked update, since it's not my main music player and I don't really care about it. Well, now I started to care because other music apps can't access equalizer anymore. Walkman app is okay, but it lacks functions and the bottom stripe where navigation bar is supposed to appear is annoying as I've replaced the bar with LMT. Can anyone post older version of Walkman please?
Sent from my Xperia Z
Maybe uninstall walkman?
It will revert to the older version.

Silly me. I, for some reason, thought the updates get pushed directly to the system by Sony Uninstalled the update, but seems like something got screwed up on a deeper level. I still can't get equalizer to work with other apps.

Hi guys, I hope some can help me resolve my problem. My unit is C6903, Android 4.4.2 .757. Whenever I play a music the music widget on lockscreen is not appearing and also I cannot add additional lockscreen widgets. Again these happen when I am playing a song. Whenever I'm not, I can add widgets on lockscreen. Thiese only started again when I updated to .757 FW but on .168 it's working. Enable widget option is ticked, already tried clearing the cache of the Walkamn Music Widget and Lockscreen on the settings but to no avail. Any response guys would be very much appreciated.
Screenshot for your reference. Take not that the I'm playing a song (the Walkman icon on the notification area).

I tried the Walkman app and noticed a bug as well, the cover doesn't always change when I skip to the next song..
Looks like Walkman has some bugs with this firmware, but it's not a problem for me since I use poweramp, maybe you should give it a try, in my opinion it's much better than Walkman

I prefer the Walkman app Jiyeo hehehe but I appreciate your reply and suggestion. And since we're talking abt the Walkman app, the Facebook Music Like's also gone. Already tried forced closing it but to no avail. Hope they will release the updaye for the Walkman after the Movies.

Anyone found a solution for this? I have the same problem since the .757 update, and both Walkman and Google Play Music are affected. Considering to root my phone to fix the problem (hopefully NUT's rom have this sortet out).
Are you using SmartKey app? I remember when I was using it I had the same problems with lockscreen widget... it wasn't appearing and I could't swipe clock widget as well.
I do not use the Smart key app, but I have tried to install and uninstall it. Didn't do anything. I can swipe the lockscreen widget (had to enable it in settings after the last update), but still no music widget.
The problem is also present with Netflix...

Found the problem! I had an app similar to Smart key (Headset control center https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.shengande.degausslabs ).
It does the same thing as Smart key, and when I uninstalled it everything works fine!

And how you had this app installed on your phone? This is not stock app and is not the solution.
It solved my problem. This is not a stock app, but it seems apps with this functionality causes the same problem.

Guys is there any chance to edit manually artist artwork in Walkman? coz I can't find most of the Indian artist profile in automatic search... And also is it possible to introduce Tap to wake up screen feature in our Xperia z1?
I think you need to use pc for that

1. You can install apps like cover art download or mp3 edit apps to fix album art. u can also find tons of such apps to fix music info
2. I dont think sony want us to have tap2wake. but if u really wanna get it, u can unlock bootloader and install this kernel
