Xnext™ WalkMan v1.6.7.2 Update - Sony Cross-Device General

Xnext™ WalkMan​
This modification is made to give the best possible audio experience on Sony Xperia Devices.
Unique features
ALSA custom sound control, crosscompiled with Qualcomm Compiler
updated opus, vorbis and flac codecs
stripped audio effects, for reduced audio processing (and better sound performance)
32bit / 96.0khz (Xperia 1iii / 1ii / 1 / 5 iii / 5 ii / 5)
24bit / 96.0khz (all other devices)
everything is logged, you can check what this modification is doing ( /system/usr/share/alsa/debug )
execute with a terminal as root:
check ( audioflinger dump )
test.sh ( place a wave audio file on your internal storage, name it test.wav, then execute the script, this will play your file direct via aplay )
you can also use aplay, arecord, alsactl, amixer alsaucm directly, if you are familiar with it ( if you mess something up - its your own fault, but you can ask for help anyway )
custom Dolby Atmos configuration
audio output power is greatly improved, so be careful with the volume

Wow, people are really fast in creating separate threads for Indian users. I just came here to see if it was created and voila, it's there.
Ok, now back in topic. Hmmm... Looks like a worthy update for me from Z1. Hope it doesn't cross the 50k mark! Price it at 45k and Sony will hit the bulls eye. Also, I'm in US right now and I won't be getting it from T-Mo for sure. So have to rely on Sony store for the unlocked one.
As expected, Z2 users will be pissed off. Chill out, it was expected.

Yeah for sure...being a Z2 owner i kinda feel little bad!!!
But about price lets hope they dont cross 50K because Z2 almost did it and maybe Sony will go beyond this time...competing iPhone 6.
I would want it below 50K..lets hope for the best....:fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed:
Well some sources reveal that the price of the phone will be 49999 INR in India if this is true it will be good for Sony as they are not crossing 50K mark as Z2 is still quite new and packs almost all features of Z3.... which is currently selling for 44999 INR.
It would really be good to bind a smart cover SCR24 and NC headset if possible the Smartband Talk and they already screwed the ADP so at least some compensation for that.
I really hope sony does not mess up the release as it did with Z2. I'm talking about faulty phone manufactured which were later refused to be replaced as well.
Hi. Was planning to shift from note 3 to z3 and had some qs for z2 users wrt :
- stability and speed of UI (any random reboots/data loss?)
- is the screen truly shatterproof or is it just a film on the screen
- does the sound 'break' at highest volume on the speaker?
Any other comments welcome
Thx

--z2's UI is quite smooth
--not as strong as gorilla glass 3
--sound is ok not as good as htc one boom sound
my suggestion is its better get z2 rather than z3 bcos z2 price will be lower and performance will be similar to z3 in all important aspects or else this time exynos 5433 A57/A53 cortex based note 4 which will be released in india seems to be really good even with disabled 64bit support
Thx but I need a change from Sammy. Was also considering the one m8, lg3 and xiaomi mi4

Dont bother about Xiaomi its UI is worst to adapt..
Z2 or Z3 bestt choice but if you want boom sound you can go for M8 but due to boring launcher from HTC which is monochrome ..and doesnot stand a chance against SONY's UI and themes...

Yes you are right about Z2 i faced the same issue with my Z2 they removed the ADP policy right after the Z2 was a month old and refused to replace the faulty phone.
Also if they price high due to iPhone stupidity then bad news for SONY
If you had to list out any negatives of the z2 what would they be?
I'm trying to convince myself that the z3 has the best specs that I need (mainly photos, videos, emails and maps) but keep on hearing comments from friends " you're buying a sony phone?"
Boom sound is nice to have but not essential for me.
Also important is battery time - both discharging and charging time. I see that z3 has a hi speed USB 2 port but not USB 3. Wonder how much difference that would make in charging and data transfer.
Looking at the abroad price comparison the device might cost 54999 INR and might be 4G model if its Dual Sim version only then i will discard Sony brand...

Dont bother about battery life if you have Z2 it has the best battery backup...also if you want to buy Z3 you can.
and charging doesnot bother...

Sony center in Mumbai says 25th Sept release.
They had a z2 demo piece with a matte screen guard that just destroys the screen quality - and refuse to take it off. Strange!

Z2??? did you get any info about the price??
Nope. But going by indications looks like around 50k. Initial hands on reviews are very good - check phone arena. Gsmarena has reviewed only the compact so far.

Z5, Z5 compact and Z5 ultra..

www.techtimes.com/articles/74544/20...t-pose-for-the-camera-before-sept-2-event.htm
Sony's Xperia Z5 and Xperia Z5 Compact smartphones, which are expected to be officially unveiled at the upcoming IFA 2015 to be held in Berlin, are once again the subject of rumor mills as an image showing the two devices on top of each other has been leaked.
The image was uploaded by prolific leaker ViziLeaks on Twitter, sparking discussion on some details that can be discerned through the picture.
The picture that ViziLeaksuploaded*shows the sides of the two smartphones in detail. The thing that stands out is how the fingerprint scanner for the Xperia Z5 and Xperia Z5 Compact look like and where exactly they are located on the side of the devices. The fingerprint scanner is embedded in the power buttons of the smartphones.
It can also be seen that the volume rockers for both smartphones are placed below the fingerprint scanners, similar to previous Xperia devices albeit much lower than usual.
According to ViziLeaks in the comments, the two smartphones are shown in the picture with no case or bumper installed, meaning that the image shows what the Xperia Z5 and Xperia Z5 Compact really look like. As they are, the two smartphones appear to be continuing the OmniBalance design language that Sony has developed.
The placement of the volume rockers, however, is subject to*debate*on whether their location is an ideal one. It could be difficult to access the volume rockers using only one hand, especially on the smaller Xperia Z5 Compact, but only hands-on testing in the future will tell whether that is the case or not.
The larger model of the Xperia Z5, possibly named the Xperia Z5 Ultra, is not included in the image uploaded by ViziLeaks. However, it will also most likely feature the same design and button placements as the Xperia Z5 and the Xperia Z5 Compact.
The fingerprint scanner feature is slowly becoming a standard feature on flagship smartphones. Also, its inclusion in the Xperia Z5 smartphones shows the significance of these devices in Sony's plans.
The Xperia Z5 is expected*feature*a 5.5-inch display with 1080p resolution and will be powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 810 chipset with 3GB of RAM and an internal memory capacity of 32GB.*

I don't think there's going to be a Z5 Ultra.
Only C5 Ultra

C5 Ultra does look amazing and I am a little bit hopeful that a Z series phablet successor could exist, but with Z3x and Z4 ultra rumour before, it is hard not to be sceptic.
At least sony IFA event on 2nd September is not that far-off
Z5 ultra! (z5+)

[request] Port sony LDAC to One plus 3T

Hello everyone ,
Sony LDAC is a Bluetooth codec made by Sony. It is far superior than aptx ,it is there in Sony phone as stock and also included in android O. I was wondering if there is any way to work it on OnePlus 3T as sound mods on XDA only has its lib files it doesn't really work.
To my knowledge if it has been ported from a Xperia device it will not work as it is locked to that Xperia's DRM key and Sony's custom flinger. But maybe once Android O goes into full beta maybe it will be possible to port but it is exclusive to Sony Bluetooth headphones and speakers.

Sony Xperia XA1 Ultra or XA Ultra firmware - compatible for Xperia Z Ultra?

I realise that I'm probably "wishing" but is it possible that the Sony Xperia XA1 Ultra or XA Ultra firmware might be compatible for Xperia Z Ultra?
Thanks.
Definitely wishing
A simple but unfortunate answer, no. However you can port compatible elements to your device using AOSP or other existing ROM as a base.
Thanks.
I'm still pissed off that SONY is not updating Android for the Xperia Z Ultra e.g. to Marshmallow, Nougat.
It is nearly 4 years old now? No one updates their devices for that long.
Well it's not really Sony's fault that Z Ultra got no Nougat
It's Qualcomm's fault who didn't want to update the Adreno OpenGL drivers which is needed to pass CTS
So #blameqcom
#truestory
3 years old. But it's still a great device.
And this isn't the Z Ultra forum....
