Hi
maybe a stupid question, but there were a couple of nice apps on the stock rom.
having just put CM on my Xperia T I wondered if there is a reliable way to get the stock apps onto it?
I have the de-odexed rom zip that was posted on here aq while back, but havent had any luck getting anything on there, either by using apk installer or copying the files to system/app and rebooting.
any help much appreciated
thanks

There are no stupid questions, just users not reaearching.
However, I dont know how to answer this unless you say which apps..
If you are talking sony stock apps, then some install and can be used but you cant use widgets (e.g timescape) other than that more information will help

hi greg
thanks for the reply
primarily the walkman app as I am not getting on with apollo at all
was a miui user for a long time on my desire, and the music app on that I liked. but no miui for the T that is as up to date at FXP 149 (there was a thread but it seemed to go stale a while back)
also the weather widget, would be nice too - but guess that is a no no.
as no widgets does that mean even if I can get the walkman app on there, the widget wont work?
thanks
I suggest you just try to copy the walkman .apk in /system/app and set the correct permissions, then reboot. It certainly won't mess up your phone if it doesn't work.

weather widget is a no..it is a stock sony widget and wont install on non sony roms.
If you look in the theme and app section there is a thread for walkman and if you follow the links ou will find a flashable zip to flash if you are not on stock to flahs to get it working.....but i wil lsay apollo is the best music app i ahve used apart from the sony walkman app..
Hello Folks, I Tried Searching for Xperia S Lockscreen for My Current Using ROM (Rohan's Cm10.1), But i Have Ended With Nothing. So i Request AnyOne to Link me with Xperia S Lockscreen and Walkman APK If Possible
-Thanks in ADVANCE :highfive:
try searching harder, there's xperia lockscreen theme for milocker and widgetlocker, and I'm pretty sure that I've seen walkman app somewhere too...
Anybody with info on Sony walkman, or an idea as to where I can find a Sony xpera walkman port that can run on our lovely device (mi410)running gingerbread.

Thank you, but the options on this one is so limited.
Can't even change the skin or any other option.
Also, this seems to be some miui music player skinned to look like walkman for Sony.
Correct me if am wrong.
Pls I need the original walkman port from Sony.
AFAIK there is no walkman port for GB .
If u want real walkman just upgrade to ICS and install walkman by Rizal Lovins which is available in general apps section.
I have used it in ICS and JB it is cool. Though some features not working in JB
Guys; can someone provide me a latest walkman widget modified with a clear backplate please?
ive tried a few i found on this forum but none work. i guess its to do with the firmware? im on 14.4.A.0.108
current walkman 8.4.A.3.1
widget 2.0.A.0.54
thanks...............
ok if anyone is interested........ found this which does what i wanted
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.voiche.musicwidget&hl=en
would have preferred a modded apk but this will do for now and its customizable.
Hi guys,
Recently Sony updated its "Walkman" app to "Music".
Most love the new additions to material design but changing the app from "Walkman" to "Music" was a disappointment. [Especially the Icons and notification ]
I believe that Walkman is "brand" that sets Xperia apart from other music players.
I have modified the app to give the same WALKMAN feel and looks while keeping the new functionality.
Requirements:
SuperuserMOD [Works for both KK and LP] NEEDED
Kitkat users can use Xposed installer and Serajr [KK] xopsed module to get Superuser MOD.
links for how to install xposed on LP rom-http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=60454533#post60454533
links for LP Serajr mod on LP-http://forum.xda-developers.com/crossdevice-dev/sony/xposed-serajr-xperia-xposed-lp-v1-0-27-t3094251
Install steps:
-Download and install as normal apk.
I have tried this with Lollipop and it works fine.. kitkat users need to be de-odexed and can try the same..
Hope you liked this mod.
Apk and screenshot added below.
If you liked this mod pls hit thanks
Update:
The new Icon is desiged to look like the Classic Walkman icon in old Walkman phones, whilst maintaining same icon theme that Sony uses.
On request , also another Mod with the Stock Walkman icon is created. You can download as per you choice.
Please let me know if you guys dont like the New icon or any inputs are welcome.
Change LOG :
v1 :
-Based on Music 9.0.0.A.2.0beta.
-Updated Launcher Icon to Stock Walkman App
-Updated Notification Icon to Stock Walkman notification.
V2 :
- Changed app drawer text to "Walkman" from "Music"
- Changed in app Header text to "Walkman" from "Music"
V3 :
- Removed "vertical version text" from main screen.
v4:
- Updated to latest 9.0.1.A.1.0 version.
- Changed icon to classic Sony Ericsson Walkman icon with exact Sony material icon theme.
v5:
- Updated to latest 9.0.1.A.3.1 version
-Android Wear text and Icon changed to Walkman icons
- Created two Apks on Request [one with the new Walkman icon and One with the Sony Walkman Lollipop icon]
Update:
For those who are OK with the new "Music" name and just want the annoying vertical "RED" beta version on the home screen of the music player, a stock apk with that mod is created. However you will need the specified requirements.

Hi guys,
This is a modded Music beta Apk with old "Walkman" icon for app and app notification.
I basically loved the material concept thats enhanced in the new music player but I PERSONALLY did not like the WALKMAN name being replaced with MUSIC. NOR the icons.
I believe that Walkman is "brand" that sets Xperia apart from other music players.
So for those who do not like the new music icon..and like the old stock Walkman icons in notification and app.. You can use this
This is the
Install steps:
Back up SemcMusic.apk at /system/priv-app/SemcMusic/ [for lollipop]
Copy Apk to /system/priv-app/SemcMusic/
change permissions to rw-r--r--
Reboot
I have tried this with Lollipop and it works fine.. kitkat users need to be de-odexed and can try the same..

I have super user mod that's for sure. I tried uninstalling updates and indeed I now have that pretty Walkman logo
Cheers !
Edit: I am using NXT material theme which modifies the walkman app logo. I think that's why I am having hard time installing!
