Hello Guys!
So as you know on some roms the Walkman key doesn't work, and some people feel frustrated that the fix for it doesn't work or has no effect. So they are stuck with a dead Walkman key.
Now, I have my own way of getting the Walkman key to work on each Rom if it doesn't work. And now I will share the way to all you LwW Users!
--Preparations & Requirements--
-A LwW Phone :silly:
-Root Explorer (Can be found on the web)
-DreamKeys (can be found on BlackMart Alpha)
Or Here
www.netoclub.com/m/files/view/1356500826
-Have To Be Rooted
That's all!
Note: Screenshots will not be provided but I will try to give enough detail as possible.
1) Open Root Explorer and navigate to /system -> /usr -> /keylayout and open pm8058-keypad.kl with the text editor
2) Find the lines ' #WALKMAN Key
key 200 VENDOR_1
Note: could not say 'Vendor_1' could be anything. This was just a example
3) Rename the 'VENDOR_1' To 'CALL' Make sure it is aligned properly with each row And column.
4) Move Along the lines of 'CALL' and type 'WAKE_DROPPED' (should also be aligned)
5) Save and Exit with the changes and install Dreamkeys, open it and click 'setup cal button'
6) Tick the box 'Launch>> Open Application' and 'select an application' find the preferred music app and save your changes when exiting the app.
7) Reboot! Once rebooted click the Walkman key and a dialog box should popup. Tick the box and choose Dreamkeys and then the music app should open!
Voila! You now have a working Walkman key! Thank me if this guide worked for you and leave your comments

Hi, thanks for this brilliant info. I use a wallet (authentic SE spec) for the phone that presses the Home button as you slide it in the wallet (nice one sony), so disabling this is great. However, due to the rubbish screen wakeup button on the top of the phone (too small and hard to press, I use a button downloaded off Google Play to activate screen lock), it would be good if the Go Back and Menu buttons activated the screen.
However, I tried to rewrite the file to make it do this, and only managed to fail miserably.
Any clever people happy to give me the answer on a plate?
Thanks in advance
Thank you very much!
On all roms, the stock camera makes 2 sounds:
1. Focusing - Double beep when you hold down the button
2. Shutter sound - Single beep when the picture is taken
This guide will show you how to disable both these sounds. Although the camera settings allow an option to disable camera sound, this does not work on most roms
Focusing
1. Launch RootExplorer, then open the /data/.
2. Create the file local.prop (If there already is a local.prop, dont create a new one)
Press the menu button - New File
Name it local.prop
3. Open local.prop in Text Editor (Hold it down)
4. Enter the following text into the file. Press menu and then Save & Exit
Code:
ro.camera.sound.forced=0
Make sure not to leave a space after the 0
5. Reboot
Now, the camera will be completely silent when you switch the volume of your phone to silent/vibrate. I use tasker to automatically switch my volume mode when the camera is open.
Shutter
Much easier than focusing.
1. Open root explorer and head to head to /system/media/auido/ui/
2. Delete the following file
Shutter_01.ogg3. Done, no reboot
The camera will work fine whether you have these mods or not.
Thanks a lot.
I found this mod a while back and it still works. Credit to whoever found it, I'm just sharing.
"First, you need root access and a file manager (I use Root Explorer, as I've found it works the best consistently)
-Open up your file manager, in this case it's Root Explorer
-Enable R/W at the top (cannot be R/O)
-Go to /system/csc/feature.xml (hold down on feature.xml and open in text editor)
-Scroll down to the end (on my phone, the line we are looking for was the third or fourth from the bottom)
-Find the line that looks like this:
<Cscfeature_Launcher_DisabledPageRotation>true</
-Change "true" to "false" (without quotes). It should now read:
<Cscfeature_Launcher_DisabledPageRotation>false</
-Save changes and reboot
-Profit"
Hit the "Thanks" button if I helped you.

when i change it and save it does stick for me
As we All know LeWa OS has a issue of wierd icons & incorrent sizes of icons!
You can resize the whole UI of your android easily using these easy steps!
Changing the DPI value of your android device will solve the issue!This MOD will also change the resolution of icons/status bar/menu/app drawer/homescreen/all other apps!
So here we go ~DPI Fix for LeWa/MIUI/CyanogenMod/AOSP/Stock/AOKP/Any ROM/ANY DEVICE!!!
Storngly Recommended for Custom ROMs only!.
1. At first root your device!.
2. Install Root Explorer/Root Browser/ES File Explorer! (Any file explorer that opens /system partition).
3. Open Root Explorer and go to system!.
4. Hold build.prop and a menu shall appear!.
5. Click Copy and Paste in your Memory Card/Any Place Safe! (for backup issues only).
6.Go Back to system and Hold build.prop!.
7.Click on "Open in text editor" and scroll down!.
8.On the end of the lines, create a new line!
9.type~ ro.sf.lcd_density=190 (190 is the value of your new display DPI! so you can change the DPI as you want! default is 210)
10. Save & Exit
11. Reboot your Device. Now see the changes!
