Walkman small app - Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I formatted my Sony xperia SP recently and got the android 4.3 installed from Sony service center. Since then I have been trying to find the Walkman small app all across the Google play store, but did not find it anywhere. Can someone please give me a link for the Sony Walkman small app?

You can use walkman small app by selecting from one of the walkman widgets in Add small apps from Widget option which converts widgets to small apps

See screenshot, its the second option, and select walkman widget.

Sure
Widget is very convenient .

Downloading it. Let's see what we have here...
"I got my values. So you can keep yours, OK?"
Thanks for sharing. Let's see what useful.
No new media apps, just the regular Xperia S ICS media apps
Then again, they're mostly just icon changes anyway.
The small apps are here but how would we be able to access them?
Some changes I found
The torch (flashlight) app is nice and has a widget. Would've liked it to be a part of the OnOffTools but oh well.
The Home app pages have a darker background. Useful if your background is purely white or bright.
Weather widget can now use your location and change weather depending on your location.
New clock widget: Binary clock
The Email app now has a widget
Xperia Link app for linking your tablet and Xperia device together via Bluetooth
Slightly different cosmic flow wallpapers (Not like the GX but the colours illuminate more... Kinda hard to explain but you'll see the difference yourself)
Contacts app now has an option to link all possible contacts at once
Currently not using Timescape but I don't believe there will me too much different with it.

I guess we need to port the framework to our phones, and maybe the SystemUI.

I'm sure it can be done fairly easily on the 2012 phones. The 2011 phones is probably a different story... lol

Some of the few apps that are updated. Also, i tried porting the systemui, doesn't work. I think its because T has touch screen buttons where as the S doesnt, and anyone figure out a way to get those floating apps to work?

Can't we simply mod it, I mean we can add those three on screen buttons to our phone, so can't we remove it from the xperia T??

Quicklaunch on lockscreen

I was wondering is there any way to add other apps to quick launch on the lockscreen under the ones for camera and walkman.
I've been running around options and google store for a while now but I can't seem to find an option or app to do that.
Thanks in advance.

Lockscreen replacements like Lockerpro, widgetlocker and few others allow quick launch options for different apps.
Thanks but I was hoping to keep my current lock screen couse its perfect for me but I will try some of those apps hope I find something I can use

[Q] How to use sony widgets after freezing stock xperia home?

I decided to use another launcher in place of the stock xperia one
so I also froze it with rom toolbox
In this case some of Sony provided widgets e.g. weather, disappear from the widgets menu or list in the app drawer
Is it possible to recover them and make them usable with other launchers somehow?
Thanks a lot

Not as far as I know. I can't use them on Apex Launcher or Nova either (even without disabling the sony launcher).
You cannot use sony widgets on custom launchers

Some of them do work on nova
for instance the camera widgets and some from walkman
but not the music controls and others
kinda bummer....

Same here with Next Launcher, but better sacrifice some widget than use the stock launcher which is very ugly.
There is a sony walkman widget in the playstore that I use with nova, it's not quite as pretty but gets the job done.

Walkman App Lockscreen Widget

Hi guys,
as the update a week or so of the Walkman App camo out i rea in the update center that it can now be added a widget to the lockscreen(not only when you play music). So updated to 8.4.A.3.1 but I am still not able to find the widget for the lockscreen. Anyone alse having this problem?
Sent from my C5303 using XDA Free mobile app
The widget only appears when a music player is playing music. I am not able to add the widget directly (just tested it)
~~Regards
Thanks for the reply. My mistake that I misunderstood something. It was "Walkman widget to work on Android default home screen" not Lockscreen. Seems to be a feature that you could use the new widget for other launchers too.
Is there still a way to get widget of the walkman app to the lockscreen? Cause when I stop the music it disappears and on a microphone(not a headset) it is very annoying to reopen the app.

Zooper +media utilities under lollipop

Seems like no one in this forum knows about it so I'll ask my question here.
For me it doesn't work, can someone confirm? Or are there ways to make media utilities run properly under 5.0?
Media utilities is a no go, Not yet at least. Zooper pro works with some launchers but not all.
Its hit and miss... Enable notification access than in zooper make sure direct control and alternative data collection are selected.. Track, artist, and album text works... Album art does not unless you uncheck alternative data collection... But then the other stuff is broken.

I'm a bit late to the discussion but have (kind of) managed a workaround for this.
Download "Jacks Music Widget' and use the smallest music widget, which I think is 4x1.
Resize this widget using Nova, this effectively hides all the music controls and gives you a full size album art.
From there add your Zoopers on top.
I have this set up and it works great. Probably even better as Jacks music widget changes the artwork almost immediately and you have the added benefit of it not clogging up your Gallery, which MediaUtilities does.
You could just use Jacks Music widget tbh, but if your like me and need to personalise everything about your phone then its a little workaround that works.
I've attached a screen showing you my set up

Thank you both for the information! I'll give both methods a try.
Side note: Why aren't there more complaints of this problem?
Do only a small amount of people use Media Utilities with Zooper??? (unlikely)
Are only a small amount of people on Lollipop?
Is there an alternative program that folks are using with Zooper/Lollipop???
If you really need the functionality and arent attached to a launcher you could use themer which has MU built in, the same devs as MU, they've pretty much focused all their efforts on themer.

Thank you for the suggestion... :good:
Themer
The only problem with themer is that it kills my battery.
is it possible to turn off the Media Utilities notification in the drop-down window in Lollipop?
says "Zooper counts monitor active"....really wanna remove it from the dropdown.
Thanks.
