I uninstalled Walkman with Titanium backup, but install of this apk is failing. I'm rooted. I tried copying the file straight to /system/app. What am I doing wrong?

Thanks I copied the apk there (replacing the stock one) and it installed. But I'm getting FC's every time I open Album. Similarly, Walkman FC's too. I cleared the app data (and cache in recovery) and no luck. Can someone please post a step-by-step for me?
Meanwhile, what's the best way to get a hold of the stock album apk? I forgot to back it up first. I have an FTF of .314 ROM - any way to get it out of there?
Thanks,
Prashant

I think u need a deodexed rom. But i am not sure about that. And are u sure u give right permission? RW R R? While moving to system/priv-app ?
Btwn u can find a flashable zip port in cross development section. Use that..

I managed to get the original album apk from my FTF. I've tried Root Explorer and FX w/ Root to install the original apk and I get an 'App not installed'. Not sure how I managed to do it last time. I guess worse come to worse, I'll just reinstall the whole phone, but trying to avoid that.

Yeah i tried it too. The album works fine for me but the walkman constantly fc'ed. Tried installing the walkman backup i had with no success. The only way to make it work again was to flash the firmware again. FYI I'm on stock rooted.

I think it's best to wait for someone to port 4.4.4 from the z3 to the z2. It shouldn't be That hard.

I know its too late but instead of flashing firmware again you can just remove the apk's and update center will see that the apps are missing and it will download and install them again.

[Tweak] MegaBass (bass enhancer)

I found in another forum a couple of files which allow us to add MegaBass, one of the most beloved features of Sony Ericsson's W(alkman) phone series. I bundled them in an update.zip to be flashed with Clockwork Mod, and given that they work in all Xperia phones, I've decided to spread them around
I hope it's useful!
MegaBass Installer
MegaBass Uninstaller
*Note* I didn't make these files nor am I savvy enough to discuss their effect. They've been tested in most models with success, though, so again, I distribute them in the hope that they can be useful.

He says UPDATE.ZIP so i guess you flash it in recovery.
Thanks! I just flashed it ... Is there any specific option we have to select to activate Mega bass or is it activated by default?
Can anyone explain how to install it?
Excuse me but I do not know how to
proceed. Thank you.
Can this be applied on locked bootloader,rooted?

It should be activated by default. I've been told that you need a good equalizer like DSPManager and good headphones to notice the change.
Since this is an update.zip file, you need to be able to enter CWM recovery. Therefore, you need an unlocked bootloader.

if your phone is rooted, you can just extract the update.zip and copy the files.
do not forget to set the proper permission to the files you copied.
after the reboot, it should be loaded by default I suppose.
edit: well, as written in the script, there should be no problem with the method above. but, I could not feel much differences though.
Thanks !! Just applied on xperia arc, seems that the bass is bigger!!

I dont know the contents of this zip but I guess you could just delete them if they haven't overwritten anything,otherwise you have to replace them with the stock ones via root explorer.

From my understanding it reinforces the bass that the equalizer can produce.

probably need to flash the system r/w exploit or something like that. phonebook and contacts apk are system apps which would require you to be able to write to the system to change them. hope this helps

(SUPER MOD) Bravia Engine 2 BRING BACK (INSTALL XREALİTY)

Hi sony lovers
After opening the bootloader bravia engine 2 albums did not work. With this mode, BRAVIA Engine 2 albums and movies will work. You need to use the original ROM. origin 4.1 4.2 4.3 works with.
custom ROM is useless. Whether open or closed bootloader works. Only use original enough. I also tried the original 4.3 and spectacular works.
NEW
I'm so glad I did that. I tried very hard and finally ran xreality mode. ALBUM and video works. Xreality more quickly optimize photos. Only Xperia z original ROM works. Follow the steps below.
INSTALL
1) DOWNLOAD FILE
2) INSTALL ROOT EXPLORER
3) DELETE SYSTEM /APP / CREDENTIAL MENAGER SERVISE.ODEX AND CREDENTIAL MENAGER SERVISE.APK
4) RESTORE BRAVIA ENGINE file flash
5) X-REALITY FOR XPERİA Z file flash
NOTE: works on odex ROM only. Get a backup before installation. I'm not responsible if your phone is broken.
Please report back if it does not work. I'll help.
PLEASE THANKS
I Love you Sony
Is there any way to make it work on custom roms (AOSP,CM)?
Photos you take from your camera will be bit of noisy after unlocking bootloader, I really noticed that after updating to 4.3.

If you are using the original ROM and you've done the steps necessary work. was attempted repeatedly. Please system / apps and credantial menager servise.apk in the credential menager servise.odex delete files. then install the attached files with recovery.
How to undo X-reality mod? Just delete the files X-reality zip flashed?
Because I used your Restore Bravia Engine and it worked well and I flashed the X-reality i don't see any changes anymore

Well i thought it's not possible with custom rom other than stock based.
Good luck to you & I hope you succeed to make work with album, walkman. :thumbup:
Can you provide me with those files u are talking about maybe i try it on official nightly. It would be too lengthy to flash stock & get it.

Ok tried it but no luck. So i tried to do this
Copy semcillumination.apk & semcilluminationsettings.apk to system/app- both app didn't install.
Applied patch to android with lucky patcher - semcillumination.apk got installed but semcilluminationsettings.apk didn't installed.
But on every reboot i got FC semcillumination.apk.
I also copied their permission & framework files.
Note: I gave the correct permissions.
One question did ur lights beat on incoming calls just like stock.
I also tried Xperia Led music app it also got FC
That is what i found on the Web.

Sony's background defocus app when I last used it was godawful and failed 90% of the time, Google Cameras version works much better and more of the time.
But to be honest when you can simply take a photo and snapseed the defocus then why bother faffing with defocus at all when taking the picture?
Have you asked if this includes it?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-sp/development/rom-z3-experiencesp-t3039228
Doesnt state it but includes everything else not sure why Camera app and add ons wouldnt be there.
