Hello every one,
does anyone know an application that does navigate thru the screen instead of always push the back button for example ?
another thing, the phone app and camera takes a little bit to start the first time is there any way to keep it always alive ?
i am running 4.0.4 431 stock version in my ARC S and very happy with it, rolled the
Xperia NXT Transformation pack for ICS v2.00 and it looks fantastic.
thank you all.
The bane of ICS for me and my OCD is the terrible mixture of froyo and gingerbread style sony apps with the new ICS theme. I'm sure it goes against the conventions set in google's guidelines on how to make apps for ICS and its slowly but sure driving me me me much more insane.
I would be grateful on a discussion of what can be done to remedy this dreadful plight... I have gathered a couple of ideas but I am looking for more!
1. The music player has ghastly bubbles in its corners and does not fit with ICS theme.
in this thread:

Lasanda links to a thread with an APK that updates the default player to a walkman version ripped by doomlord which can be found in this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1676013
also I would suggest trying out vanilla music player, it's open source and works with the new lockscreen as well as having widgets that work in other launchers. I can't get the album artwork to work on my mini though (while it works no problem on an android mediaplayer I also have) so would appreciate if anyone else has any input.
2. The home screen's capped framerate now looks laggy since the ICS ui has significantly improved graphical performance from extra use of the GPU. The color scheme and style of the bubbles is also out of phase with the new ICS theme. They shoulda just changed the bubbles for futurisitic triangles or something.
- the best I've managed so far is replacing with zeam
3. call screen : bubbles/
-no idea, if anyone has any clue what to do here if and how to replace the call screen I would be happy and give you my thanks.
Apart from lack of encryption and this poor theme, ICS is good for me. Please share any more tips to improve it further though
thanks
What I Like the Most In SONY Devices Is Its STYLE.
The Way They Custom The Android With Thier Own IMAGINATION Is Next To None!:fingers-crossed:
Keeping In That Mind I'm Asking The Developers Of Xperia On XDA To Develop
A Walkman Widget With The Style Of Their Previous (2011) Walkman Series Widgets.
I've Found The Original Widget From XDA (somewhere I Forgot),And So Posting The Link (Of Mediafire) HERE.:good:
The Requirement Is Simple
1>To Keep The Dazzling Light Bubble On The Playing Bar In The Widget
2>To Use The Original Xperia S Widget Skin (Either GB or ICS One)
And Please Please Please Make It For Non Rooted Users Just Like The Original One I've Posted
Thank You
?
Is it possible to use Walkman Widget (modded probably - is there any...?) whith other launchers?
As far as I can tell, this is damn near impossible to do. There are MANY requests for this on other threads where other devices use the walkman app, but noone has got it working correctly yet. I assume it can be done, but it may require an entire rewriting of the widget itself. It just isnt worth it.
Help

Someone tries this mod http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2610534 on coconut? Is this even works? I`m using Cm 10.2, but i really like how Z1 look like. I mean only launcher and widgets, nothing more
i used the cf auto root and NH7 so still 4.4.4
im looking for some suggestions from the experienced users of either app or themes based on my needs.
im vision impaired and deaf so sound is whatever but vibrations are great if customized. as for vision, i work best with the dark themes. mainly like everything is a black nackground with light colored text. even google chrome. i can do it on my pc but not phone and i did try firefox but altho it worked, not very stable to use. i do tend to lean towards go launcher bc of editing how i like and still simple icons. nothing fancy or whatnot. but another app would be like a note pad where background is black, font is white but you can change the size of the font. ive tried blackbook app but its perfect if i could just change the font size. can anyone suggest any dark themes or apps that could benefit me? im not to ready to update to lollipop yet but if its the only way to get certain things i need, i will but for now i would like to try to stick with android 4.4.4. thank you in advance to any help and advice!

Hi , have you tried to change your font size ? Go to settings/device/font/font size and you can change your font size. Or you can change style also while your there 5 fonts that come with the device. Or you can go here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2752379 download and install this APK and you have 500 different fonts to choose from.
