i used xperia ray before and i am now using xperia p. a few walkman app questions.
- when you add songs to make a playlist, is there any way to sort them alphabetically? how?
- in ray's music equaliser, there is a "dance" setting. is there any way to replicate that? how?
Thanks

I think I can help with the playlist. I can tell you how to do that with the media program that Sony made for these phones; Media Go.

Drag songs to a playlist, then click the 'artist' or 'song' tab and it will alphabetise immediately, now sync that to your phone.
What do you mean by replicate the dance setting? There is a manual equalizer tab, if that's what you need to do.

thanks! can you tell me how to sync it?
what i meant was - i need to know the exact manual levels of the bar so that it will sound like the "dance" preset on ray.
Sure, when you have installed the program Media Go, add music to your library. You can either drag and drop into your library or tell it to use music from a folder that you want.
Now prepare your playlist. Click artist or song to alpabestise whichever you need. Now connect your phone. Your phone will appear in the top left corner. Click on your phone or SD card and on the top right corner you will see sync media. Select the playlist and click ok. Now it will start syching!
There will probably be easier, faster ways of doing this, but this is the fastest that I know of.
As for the dance equalizer settings, I know what you mean now. Either use the equalizer in iTunes or Media Go. Open eqalizer and select dance, you will see the bars move to dance setting. Use this to change the bars in the Walkman app on your phone! I hope this helps!
thanks! let me try this when i get home

I was able to see the equaliser settings. thanks.
is it possible to import the playlist from my phone, edit it in media go, then put it back?
Quite possibly. Connect your phone, then on the left hand side look for playlists near your phone. Find your playlist then right click it, see if 'import' comes up. If it doesn't, look at the bottom of the page, possibly along the right hand side for import (but you must have highlighted the playlist on the left column first). Edit the playlist, then you could possibly sync in at least 3 places:
1. right click the edit playlist and look for export to
2. look at the bottom right hand corner of the page for export to
3. in the top right hand corner, look for sync and find your playlist, click ok
I hope this does what you need it to!

import comes up, but i dont see my playlist from my phone.
would you know where to find it? sorry, im really a noob in this.
thanks again
Ask as much as you like, as much as I can help, I will!
When you plug in your phone, and you see it on the left in Media Go, did you click the arrow beside the phone? The arrow reveals the contents of the phone. Do you see a playlist now?

Hi all,
I'm sure I'm missing something obvious here but I was flicking through some of the sample tracks that came with my Hero and then I clicked on one to make it play. Now I cannot get back to the screen where you can flick left and right through the cover-art of the tracks; I can only see the lists of albums/artists etc, not the iphone like cover-flo...
Help!
S.
There is a button in the bottom right corner while the track is playing and the music app is open to switch between cover flow and list view.
Thanks but that doesn't help. I can get the view up so that an album is displayed on the screen, but it says 1 of 1 and I cannot scroll left or rigt to other albums no matter what I do.
How frustrating, I don't get what's happened here? What could have changed?
Lol, can someone please assist, I just know the solution is right under my nose...
Not sure its the same problem but I couldnt search by cover flow either so I tried a few things
I rarely browse by artist and pick the first artist - I have found that this option gave me back the cover flow to scroll across all the albums for all artists
Strangely, album browse only gives the list view as do all the others - hope this helps a little

Go to the music app, use the bottom left button to go to music selection. Select the albums tab (second tab). Menu -> Play all. It will enqueue all your albums and you can now flick through them in a coverflow style in the main music app.
Awesome! Thanks for that. I appreciate I may seem a little stupid for not realising that's what I had to do, but come on - hardly intuitive now is it?
I agree, had the same problem for a while.
If you start the music player you'll have a listing of your library based on artists, albums, music square, etc.
As soon as you start playing music the only way I've found to get back to that screen is to tap on the music square icon (which then takes you to the music square tab in the library view). However, if you disable the music square in the settings this button disappears and I haven't found a way yet to get back to the library screen except for enabling the square again...
That's somehow really weird or am I missing something?
Try the button in the bottom right corner

That button takes me to the current playlist, not the media library. Pushing the top right 'back' button takes me back to the player and not to the media library as I would expect.

are you playing the music thru the music widget? if yes, you will need to go into music player by go thru your app drawer. then press the back button until you get the 'all' playlist which allow you to choose sort by artist or album ...

get a 3rd party app like "zedge" and just download a ringtone version of the song... or "Ringtone Maker" from google market, that way you can make it a system file, versus loading up a 5 MegaByte when someone calls..... that will probably create lag.
I use PowerAMP to play my music, and they have a feature built-in to make a ringtone version of the current song you are playing - that's a good route too!
thanks i have downloaded ringtone maker but how do i use it? i cant find any instructions
Audiko best ringtone app

I've always used Audacity to edit them on a computer. Market has a bunch of you want to edit on phone.

select a song (the song you said you like) and it should bring up a graph.
Your going to select a window of when you want the song to start and finish.
E.g. Start 0:30 in... end at 0:45. It will save it in a ringtone format for you to select in Settings >>>> Sounds>>>

When you select the song, click the green arrow to the right and select edit. THEN the graph will pop up.

Why is it that when I open the music player via the widget, I cannot access my music folders ie artists / albums, am I missing something?
Nope. You're spot on. I can't either. But there is a way around this. I press the music square button (somewhere near the bottom right of the screen) and then it goes to the music square tab, but you can access the others as well. Give it a try.

I hate how I have to do that!
I had deleted the music square option as I don't use it. Seems I have to re-anble it as a work round until Samsung fix it.
I'm looking for a music app that does the following:
In the stock music app on 4.0 at least, you can swipe from right to left or whatever to switch tracks.
Is there an app that say, you have all songs playing from all artists on your phone and you come to a track playing by MxPx. you can swipe up and down to get to either more MxPx songs or stay in that album at least?
If not, I think this should be developed.
I've been thinking this should be done for quite some time now.
Thanks for any heads up
Although not exactly what you are talking about, on z player's now laying screen you can tap on the artist's name and it will take to you a set of screens where you can play their albums, read a Bio, or explore simular artists through web samples. Click on the album title, and you get a list of songs in that album. Tapping on the song name shows the songs in queue. (A now playing list, and you can save it too)
