I've been finding a few solid apps that follow the Material Design theme and here are a few that I use
Music = Shuttle Music Player
Notepad = Notes by Jacob Ras
SMS = Google Messenger
Unit converter = S Converter
File Manager = Material Manager or Lollipop File Manager
Gallery = QuickPic
su = SuperSu
wallpaper app = Wally
Forum/XDA = Tapatalk
RSS = Flyne
What do you guys use? I'm still looking for a better file manager (c'mon, Google!)

I use the Google apps, I've no reason not to!
Material Player for audiobooks is what I've been using. Doesn't have all the bells and whistles others do, but the dev is actively updating it.

Currently the CM12 is unofficially supported. I'm assuming that dev will take over for the official but I'll wait before installing it.

They left out a few cool things from the demo. Either it'll come in the next update or they just scrapped it.

It happens with both. The .apk within' the cwm zip is the same. I noticed that too. Touch the very top of the album art.

Miui Vs Poweramp
In terms of functionality how does Miui compare to Poweramp? I can appreciate its aesthetics but if the equalizer, supported formats, and gapless playback isn't there then it becomes hard to justify changing.

It's in Chinese for me too, but the screenshot shows it should be in English. Where can I find the same version in English?
So can someone take this app and make the ENGLISH version install like a normal app for those of us that are not rooted or don't want to flash it in to the system directory?
I know this can be done because did that for a previous version which allowed me to use MIUI Music.
Also, does anyone know where I can find the source code for just MIUI Music and not the whole ROM?
I like this but is there a way to take it off?

I got this Walkman app from a rom (I can't remember which one). But I can't seem to find anything like it.
Can anyone tell me if its the original app or a mod or a miui or something?
I've attached the apk if you want to see it for yourself. But it can't be installed from the SD card normally. I have to put it in /system/app of my rom and flash it for the app to work. I don't know if its a permission thing but kudos if you could figure it out.
Here's some screenshots:

Also, the interesting thing about this app is that it can choose from my music library when I set my ringtones or alarms. I haven't seen any other app that can do this.
You will not find any real Walkman player around here. Only MIUI Music mods.
That's what I found out too by searching XDA and google. That's why I'm curious about this app.

How did you come across this file? It's the ..... strangest thing. Perhaps its origins may shed more light on its true nature ....
It came with a rom I used before. My guess is that its from one of the early versions of GingerXperia by xperiafan13 but I'm not quite sure. Also, the only other rom I really use is doxianh's GDX. Did you try the app? Its actually a decent music player in my opinion.

Does this mean its the original walkman app? and not just some miui o mod? And if it is the original walkman app, has there been any update to it? As I said its a decent music player unfortunately the look of its UI is quite outdated.

I think it could have really came from xgin since there was an issue with the "originality" of GingerXperia a few months ago, if I remember correctly.

Sweet! Now on the quest for an update from any possible forum!
Google result with the new info about xgin and this app resulted to this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1081515http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1081515
Its not quite the app I was talking about but I'll try it anyways. Who knows this could be a newer version of this app.
UPDATE:
I tried the app from the link and unfortunately I don't think its a version of the app. The UI is quite different and it also doesn't have the option to choose from my music library in setting ringtones or alarms. It also had fewer options like the shake to skip. So the hunt continues

Gotta wonder what it is about this Android app that makes it work on a Google TV (running Android) and not a Nexus 7 tablet.
I've seen Amazon Instant Video working via a PS3 (non Android) on a non-Google TV. Too bad there isn't a Google Nexus 7 compatible app in the Google Play Store to do the same thing.
In time, Amazon will learn to do it the Netflix way, and it might actually work on the Nexus 7.
Have you read the user comments on the Play Store for this app?

Um.... Time for me to leave this thread. Do some googling on how apps are configured and filtered for devices.
Does anyone have this working on their Nexus 6? It says not compatible with your device, for me and my buddy both.
Never had an issue with it on my N5 and I use it more than any app.

Is that just the latest version's apk? I'll go that route but hopefully ESPN/Google fixes this, assuming it's thinking the device is a tablet or something.

Have you noticed any issues using 480?
I thought it was an Android 5 issue. My N5, when updated to 5.0, didn't allow me to download it either.
I'll try changing DPI to see if it works.
I'm not 100% sure. My DPI is set to 493, and I can download it. But what I cannot download is the ESPN FC app.
My device is compatible for this app ..
This might not be a popular opinion, but if you can't download ScoreCenter, just download Yahoo Sports. Yahoo's app is a million times better than ESPN's. Trust me, I used to swear by ScoreCenter, but I heard a bunch of people on Twitter hyping up Yahoo's app. I finally gave it a try and was blown away. I don't even bother with ScoreCenter anymore.
Just use market helper to spoof your phone.

most likely to work with the stock rom, you would have to make sure all the lib files associated with the aosp browser are all in the right place as well.

This works, there's an apk in the thread for bookmarks sync too.
