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?

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.

The stock Music player on the xoom has an interactive notification, as I am sure you all know, where you can control your music while its playing in the background with the little headphones icon at the bottom of the screen. Since the beginning of owning the xoom I have experianced this icon randomly disappearing from the notification bar and not coming back sometimes even after restarting the app.
Does anyone else get this? If so, anyone know a solution?
Ok I get it. Apparently its not a topic of interest. ...just kidding (well sort of)
But really can anyone at least say if they also get this problem from time to time? Iam just curious.

I experience this bug as well. In fact, I am listening to music right now and the notification controller is missing. I am on an Asus Transformer though..

all you have to do is go back into the music player then hit the home button and it should appear, annoying but it works
i get the complete opposite of this. my music icon (aka the headphones) will randomly appear when im not listening to music. it's only started since i flashed my canadian xoom with the US 3.1 firmware
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.
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!

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.
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

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.

I have joined the Samsung family after having been with Sony for many many years and the 1 thing I do miss are the music, keyboard and weather apps/widgets. Other then that I am loving the S10!
I do want to ask what music apps people are using though? Ideally I want 1 like Sony's as it gave me the option of a widget and I could download album art on there. I have tried many of the apks that are available for the Sony one, some don't work on the S10 and some work flawlessly EXCEPT I cannot make a playlist or add songs to my favourites. However when I tried doing these on other music apps and then going back to the Sony one, the songs will appear on my playlists?! Is there a reason for this? It's really bugging me that my S10 is not yet perfect for me :crying:
Any advice or recommendations are welcome!
Thanks:fingers-crossed:

Samsung Music 16.2.16.10 (Available On Apk Mirror) is the best music app ever made for offline playback. Its very colorful just like Sony's Walkman used to be.
For Editing Album Arts etc I would recommend Star Music editor from the play store.
Poweramp!
It's also the only music app with folders search in android auto

The Samsung app is very nice, but not usable for anyone with a music collection over 10k songs. It will only play the first 10k songs in the music players list. I've tried many different ways to get it to play different ways and it basically only plays the song you selected and the 9,999k in the first of the list from what the app can see. It wasn't like this prior to the apps updates introducing Spotify into the app.
The Sony music app, de-crippled to allow installation on all devices, is available on XDA here:

This is my favorite app for music quality, which supports different phones that have built in Hi-Res DAC or a dongle

Thanks everyone for your recommendations, I'll give them all a try later on =)
Also thanks for the link to Sony's 1 but I have already tried that and as mentioned, creating playlists or adding to favourites doesn't seem to work ? but for some reason if I create those playlists in another music app, they will appear in the Sony one?! Anybody know why or how I can fix this please?
