some of these apps are not sold in all countries. I keep getting that on so many, it's a pain in the arse. market enabler should help there though, i suppose..
[HTC One X] vallandil:
Guys u Wanna be the first with this powerfull device.

We`ll just have to wait for them to catch up to us...xD
[HTC One X] magic_moe_:
hm...so the apps are free...and you can't find them on the legal way...

well...think there for a second...get the apk somehow...installing locally works fine...well...was that really that hard of a thought?
[HTC One X] selva847:
Demolition Inc is still not supported for one x. Read the description on Google play.
[HTC One X] Mafiatounes:
Ok install Real Racing 2, Modern Combat 3 or an other Gameloft game and let us know if it works.. with a screenshot

other games are not in the ops interest, and are not in mine.

Hi there guys,

With days of use with our "very nice" Xperia S. :P

Ive been waiting few features to be added at this section.

Does somebody know an music control "add-on" for this phone?

For notification bar or even better, for the multitasking menu.

Like this:

Its really anoying to switch everytime...

Thanks in advance
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] iain26:
you could just add the music player widget to the home screen
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] reptile64:
Oh yes.. :D
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Efe64:
Ogw...

Did you read my text?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Lervly:
- I think , it's impossible if you want to add Music widget / controller to "multi-tasking menu"

- If you want music widget / controller add to "notification bar" , u need android 4.0 ics library to make it possible.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] leminhnguyen0703:
I'm almost 100% sure Sony would add this in 4.0 update. Samsung has done it with even their gingerbread roms, just need someone with the skills to do it. But I can wait.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Efe64:
Nothing is impossible.

Look the iphone :p

Hmm then we must wait and hope!

Thx for your response guys
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] airizsyah:
yes, nothing is impossible, just dig in inside play store and look for widgetsoid,

once u downloaded it, open it and check Play/Pause,Previous and Next on sound tab, then go to advanced tab, check on Notification and Widget Invisible, plus u can customize the look of your notification widget on theme tab.

ps - for some reason (i dont know) the widget will not play/pause, next or previous, but once u hit the button, a popup will appear in order to response.

a

here is mine. Sorry for the screenshot (not yet root)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] NightSky256:
i think it is possible also with GB libs...

i remember Samsung did that also in Eclair roms...

you should modify SystemUI.apk and framework.jar, the same way it has been modified for adding "notification toggles", calling the fw methods called by the widget...

You should be root of course to do that...
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] krabappel2548:
If I have some spare time this weekend and next week, maybe I can give it a try :)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] somemadcaaant:
Thanks krabappel, yeah my old LG O2x had music built into the notifications bar, was a cool idea similar to widgetsoid but better.

The O2x has it in gingerbread and had it on froyo.

-smc
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Efe64:
Thx for yiur posts guys!

Ive checked that app but its rare, its shows an popup.. Im sure i saw somewhere to turn that off.. I couldnt find it anymore...

With modding we can do everything ...

Thx krabappel!!
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Alfa Kenny One:
@efe

The Samsung Galaxy S2 has a built in music widget on the notification bar.

Maybe there is a way to replace or port it from the Galaxy S2 or search there in the treaths
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Efe64:
It would be really great..!

[Sony Tablet S] hogaburger:
Looks great so far. The Home launcher is much more responsive so I can do away with ADW EX for now.

Kind of wish there were more small apps, but browser, calculator and IR remote are great choices for those and they work terrifically.

What do you guys think so far?
[Sony Tablet S] ckmaster:
When is 4.0.4 coming!!! :-D, so far so good on my end, seems more responsive. WIFI seems to stay on and work a lot better.

Uninstall from settings and go in as market... That fixed it for me...
[Sony Tablet S] eus107709:
The tablet was initially very laggy after the update but a reboot seemed to fix things, with the exception of the notification menu. It stutters very noticeably and is extremely annoying. Many apps also don't rotate properly anymore.

Still better than Honeycomb despiute those drawbacks.
[Sony Tablet S] the_black_dragon:
DAMN YOU SONY!!!

Things i hate:

- this annoying wifi keepalive issue is still there!!! there is no way to keep wifi active during standby -.- damned why don't they let us users the choice... there IS an option to set the standby behavior but its still completely useless....

- sometimes there are widget issues (doesn't matter if 3rd party or preinstalled) that widgets change into editor mode when just pressing a button like update... changing screen ang going back will fix this temporarily... had this 2 times now...

- auto brigtness issue still not resolved... in low light the screen is MUCH too dark and when changing from full brightess to automatic it keeps full for a while and then goes down to min

- homescreen lag is still too much in portrait

- forced portrait is still not changable (damn i'm righthanded and want to hold it on the ROUND side when portrait is forced!!!!)

- the new ICS launcher... Sonys previous own launcher had a better overview with the sorting possibilities but ok we can have folders now...

- still no thumb keyboard -.-

things i like:

- media from SD card is now directly available and nut just for transfer... finally i have enough memory also without root and mounting stuff ^^

- the new mini-apps are nice but there is still much potential for more apps

- the new version of "Favorites" App is very nice animated and faster

- ICS possibility to deactivate system apps that are not removable... finally i get this google music player away

- a few other ICS related things...

ALL IN ALL this update is a big disappointement... they updated to ICS, integrated one or thwo new features and that's it??? all the big issues are still there since more than six months!!!!!
[Sony Tablet S] crh8:
I have personally had a fantastic experience with the ICS update. Everything seems faster across the board. Menus more responsive, faster browser, better keyboard response/feedback. I also like the ICS look and feel and the mini apps. Really happy with the update so far.
[Sony Tablet S] EwanG:
I used to be able to DL directly to my SD Card, and using ES File Manager to move files around. Now it refuses to do so. Anyone else having this issue? If not, what file manager are you using?
[Sony Tablet S] intellix:
My tablet seems to have gone really slow after the ICS update.

I tried a factory restore to ensure that I didnt have too many things installed and decided to start afresh. Didnt help. The tablet is still very slow. While the touch is responsive and I like the features of ICS like slide to dismiss, reading files directly from SD card etc, I definitely donot like the amount of lag I am noticing.

All my apps seem to be really really slow.

My Honeycomb seemed to be far more faster irrespective of all the issues that it had.

Any suggestions anyone?? I am on non rooted US version 16Gb Wifi.
[Sony Tablet S] pokoedge:
Have you tried going into Settings > Developer Options and tick "Force GPU rendering"?
[Sony Tablet S] reddytej:
I'm thinking of buying the sony tablet s. I've read on various reviews that this tablet's battery life is not that impressive (Honeycomb0, is that true? And btw how is the battery life after the ics update? Is there any improvement?
[Sony Tablet S] taruu:
someone can connect tablet with PC on MTP usb

i tried many times but i couldn't :(
[Sony Tablet S] bassir.masood:
ics update

i havent played around much since the update but the little time i did spend with my tab i found it more responsive and smoother.... i am liking the ics update... dont know why others having issues but i think we should give it a couple of days so that all issues are ironed out.... :)
[Sony Tablet S] pokoedge:
On the first time, it took a while to show up as windows tried to reinstall the drivers for the tablet. Maybe you should keep it connected on USB and wait for a while and see if it shows up?
[Sony Tablet S] taruu:
i'm steel keeping connection but nothing happened

should i try to reinstall drivers forcibly?
[Sony Tablet S] macmeier:
I don't understand the problems with wifi-keep-alive.There a apps in the playstore to force this. It worked well for me in Honeycomb.

Same with a thumb-keyboard.
[Sony Tablet S] taruu:
sorry, i found it

i just reboot the tablet s and connect again

then it works :)
[Sony Tablet S] cezarL:
The problem with that app from the market is that it keeps the device awake when you turn off the screen, and it eats through the battery.

On the Android phones I've used (Legend, Desire, Arc S), the WiFi remained connected, but the phone also went to sleep, battery drain was minimal.

This is the behaviour we were expecting to see in the ICS update, but unfortunately it hasn't been fixed...
[Sony Tablet S] derFrink:
Hey, i have a 3g tablet, because that i have to wait for upgrading.

But i have an important question for hifi guys: What is with the IR-Remote app...

Are there any changes to the App on Honeycomb?

I bought the tablet for controlling my homecinema an know i want to know if we get makros in the IR-Remote app?

pls check it and give a response to me :-)

[Sony Tablet S] NaKiSm:
fix for WiFi disconnecting here (free app)

Just install the WiFi Lock app from the market/play store. It's free. once installed you must change the settings in the app so it will not permanently disable the WiFi once you're out of range. That's it. After that your WiFi will stay connected forever. :-)
[Sony Tablet S] Mahaco:
Running ics now and i am happy can not personalize app menu but accept that its perfect
[Sony Tablet S] the_black_dragon:
Yes i already had this. But this is just a useless Workaround! It drains the battery down in less than 30 hours!!! I have to charge it every evening! With other tablets where this works like it should I can use them for 3 days of normal usage! Android gives us the choice so Sony has to activate this option! Nothing else! I

Seems ICS moves External SD Card from /mnt/sdcard2 to /sdcard2. Sets permissions as Read-only. Help?!?
[Sony Tablet S] the_black_dragon:
yes and no... it seems that 3rd party apps just have read rights... just the Data transfer application from sony has write rights... thats the next annoying thing because i can just download things only into internal memory and after that i have to move it....
[Sony Tablet S] joekrill:
Totally agree with NaKiSm. I can not *believe* they didn't fix those major issues (WiFi and brightness issues especially)! Quite ridiculous.

Also:

- Why no face unlock?

- Don't really like the multitasking thing. Seems mostly useless. I wish I could remove those icons entirely. I don't know why they wasted (probably a LOT) of time on that and not those other major issues NaKiSm mentioned.

Overall I'm kind of underwhelmed. I guess I was hoping for a much better performance increase? Not really sure.

Anyone know if they added MHL support? I meant to test that out. I highly doubt it, but would have been nice. Not sure if that's a hardware thing or not, though.
[Sony Tablet S] cezarL:
Um... anyone else experiencing screen flicker?

Tried forcing GPU rendering in settings, and also removing CPU rendering, yet the flickering persists...
[Sony Tablet S] Mahaco:
Yes i did New update New issues xD

Not much though,
[Sony Tablet S] kurtis.austin2:
Tons of screen flickering. I already brought this up in another post.
[Sony Tablet S] Vinny1967:
I've absolutely no screen flicker.Everything smooth as a baby's bum :D
[Sony Tablet S] kurtis.austin2:
Even when on the homescreen and you open the recently opened apps? Try that and let us know. Or open the browser and click the menu button in the top right corner and while thats open click the recently opened apps button. Any flickering?
[Sony Tablet S] intellix:
Apparently I donot have any lag issues any more.

The trick was I needed to restore back to factory settings after updating to ICS. That was I had a ICS tablet without my apps installed. I went in and installed whatever I wanted to (which is a kind of a pain since I thought google would have a backup for me of what all to install from the play store..........just like what happens for my phone).

Anyways, after facing initial lag, I had my apps installed and after 1-2 reboots, the tablet is working absolutely fine. No changes in settings were required.

Will keep working with my tablet this weekend and post issues if any.
[Sony Tablet S] Vinny1967:
Oh yeah, I see what you mean. Only happens with recently opened apps and it's only the icons that flicker.
[Sony Tablet S] Mahaco:
My whole screen flashes but i dont care, its not that annoying (yet) xD

[Sony Tablet S] dtaylorr:
Quick question: The info says we can now play directly from the SD Card. Do I need to do anything, or will it pick up immediatly?
[Sony Tablet S] cezarL:
It's driving me nuts already!

On top of that, Apex Launcher is very laggy (bummer, it was one of the reasons I wanted ICS) and I'm having Superuser issues: apps are granted root access when I open them the first time, but some of them (Drive Mount, for example) won't open later on, they get stuck waiting for Superuser to give them root again. Weird...

Then there's the WiFi turning off thing, and broken auto-brightness... Can't say I'm all that happy with this ICS update...
[Sony Tablet S] fake_japanese_guy:
wipe the data and it will be all right. i had te same issue..
[Sony Tablet S] cezarL:
Looks like clearing cache and data did the trick. Much appreciated!
[Sony Tablet S] ase3000:
Did you guys notice that the new ICS Natively support Divx videos? Some Avi's, mkv were not working before and now it works smoothly with the native video player. :)
[Sony Tablet S] Vinny1967:
Not sure if it's just me but I can't get the stock video and music players to read anything from sd card :confused:
[Sony Tablet S] Maine_Coon:
Seems like a few reboots are necessary before ICS optimizes the tablet.

After that everything is smooth. System boot time on mine is 45 sec.

[Sony Tablet S] forzanerazzurri:
Well at least we can almost rule out a hardware failure as it seems to be happening to many here.
[Sony Tablet S] kurtis.austin2:
Someone mentioned it happens on other ICS tablets too. So I dont know.
