I have the 2.1 update, and everything is in sound order, except for the Market. For me reason, I can't seem to get some ape that should be available, such as Goggles, Google Books, Nook ereader, and a few other unnamed apps I can't remember. Location, Malaysia.

They may not support your version of android anymore, or they simply don't support your phone.
For instance, my Dad is able to get Google Goggles on his 2.1 Xperia X10 mini, while my 2.1 Xperia X8 cannot.
Strange. :/
Yes, very strange...
Sent from my E15i using XDA App
it's not that strange as X8's camera doesn't have autofocus, that's why!
And how is that related?
Edit: 'Cause I'm sure Google Books doesn't rely on a camera with auto-focus.

Android and Me has recently posted information on their site that the new Music, Camera and Gallery apps will soon be available on the Android Market.
The aim is said to help remove fragmentation but also allow users to install these apps on Sense, Touch Wiz and other versions of Android.
I've tried the new Music app (the only one that appears to be leaked at the moment) and it's working a treat on my CM7 ROM. I now have two Music apps as one is registered as com.android and the other as com.google.
Hit up the Android and Me website for further info that I can't type in fast enough.
Enjoy

Dude, could you upload your Music app and share with the rest of us?

Just installed the music app on coredroid 5.8
It works pretty nice, and it is beautiful. I can finally see some nice design in googles latest android work. My hopes for icecream are big.
Aaaanyways: Does someone happen to have the camera app as well? The techfrom10 servers are down.

attached apk of music app
Thanks for attaching that. I wasn't sure how to do that from the XDA app

I tried the Music App (Thanks for the link.)
It's the usual type of thing really.
The background colours change as zoric mentioned.
Here are a few screenshots:
I tried installing but they keep foreclosing. Presently i'm on stock 1.84 or I need to be rooted to make it to work.

same here. Only the music app works for me.
music worked for me (stock 1.3~ rom)
gallery just FC'd
camera installed...but didnt actually do anything other than mess up the camera's recording ability (dropped to 1-2fps!)
once uninstalled the camera error remained
flashed android revolution 3.3 to bring the camera back
music works again
not going to bother with gallery and camera now! lol
1. Whats it like as a wireless hotspot, my Galaxy S2 is flaky at best with lots of dropouts?
2. Can it play avi files out of the box, and if not, whats playback like in Moboplayer, any sync issues?
3. What sort of games are currently available in the PS store?
4. Hows the camera?
5. Has anyone loaded Google Music and streamed their music?
Thanks all!!

This is just personal experience, but YMMV.
1. Wireless hotspot has worked great for me. I hook my iPad up to it when I'm at my grandparent's house and there's never any loss of connection. That's even on the awful Kentucky EDGE network, too.
2. I can't really help there because I never play those types of videos.
3. The PS store? If you mean the Playstation Pocket app, if you're in America (and possibly Canada), nothing. All you gots is Crash Bandicoot. FPSE is better for PS1 emulation, anyway, if that's what you're looking for. A lot of people get their games from Gameloft.
4. The camera is pretty decent. It's better than the camera on my old Desire HD that I sold. It would be better with different software (it's the AOSP app), so download Vignette or Camera 360 if you want better pictures. On this subject, the FFC looks black and white unless you're in good light.
5. I have and it worked fine on said slow network. The speaker is really loud, too.

2. The Stock Media Play can not play .avi straight out the box.....BUT......all you need to do is download a better media player and it will work straight out the box.
MoboPlayer is my recomendation to you. It plays everything i have thrown at it so far.
3. The actual Playstation games are not worth buying at all imo. Just download FPSE and get all your PS games on the emulator. (leglally you need to own the games before you download them, blah blah technical blah blah).
The Xperia Play games from Gameloft and a few other devs are quite decent quality. I love Gameloft games. Some people do not though. Remember this is a phone first and foremost. Not a dedicated games console.
4. Camera is OK. 5MP is decent. Not amazing, but clear enough to have them pictures full blown on your PC monitor without seeing many pixels.
The video recording is ok too. Not 720p, but not far off, it takes a keen eye to tell the difference.

2. Yes, Moboplayer works great. You'll have no issues playing standard def content, and in some cases 720p works too.
3. Very few, Crash bandicoot, midevil, and jet moto or something along those lines, haven't used it in a while. I used fpse and play the games I want to play (Final Fantasy VII in my case) I also use it for Super nintendo, nintendo, gameboy, and N64.
4. Fine for a cell camera. Not as good as the more camera oriented cyber-shot phones, but it holds it's own. Also the shoulder buttons make it easy to tak pictures compared to touch screen shutter.
As stated this phone has the loudest speakers out of any phones I've seen. It has two very nice cell phone speakers rather than the standard one, so everything from ring tones to games are plenty loud. They also have extremely good frequency response for cell phone speakers. Music, games, videos, everything sounds "fuller" on the Play compared to other phones.
Thanks all for the great answers.
Overall I just want to make sure I can load Google Music app despite being in the UK and that there aren't audio sync issues with avi files like some phones i've tried.

im from the uk. Also ive played h264 videos with mobo player which are more taxing on the phone and they play fine so avi should be fine, i guess...?
Also found this on web
Reports are flooding in that Google has extended invites to its cloud-based music streaming service for residents of the UK. The buzz over Google Music has been building since it launched in the US following Google I/O.
In order to enjoy the music-streaming goodness that is Google Music Beta , you’ll need a Nexus S running Android 2.3.4. Users who fit the bill will be greeted with a self-install notification following the completion of the sign up on Google’s website.

So im guessing its coming to the rest of us at some point?
Yeah i've installed the US version of music before in the UK by grabbing the apk from Modaco or using Market Access (through root).

If you're addicted to flashing ROM's, don't get it. I only got one because I traded my Inspire for it.
The game buttons are the selling point. I personally missed development going on...so my mom needed a phone with a SAMOLED so I got a Nexus S for her. :-D

I noticed this. It also works in angry birds and on other apps. I can't get dual touch for emulators though which kinda sucks as you can't play a game using one button at a time. Anyone know how to solve this?

I'm currently still on Sony Ericsson generic world Android 2.1, and pinch-to-zoom has always worked since the dual-touch update.
I've never had a problem with Gallery (I installed the shortcut apks to get the 2.1 stock Gallery and Music apps working) or Angry Birds since that update.
I mean solely for Android 2.2+. I've already gotten Netflix, Crackle (sadly, doesn't work, the sound goes really, really slow) and a few games I got off of Amazon's deal of the day that were 2.2+ only. There's obviously Flash 10.3, too. The other one I got (which I've been trying to get ahold of since I got my phone) is Kongregate Arcade.
Anything you guys know of that's a really good Android 2.2+ app that I'm missing?
If you put up the money get voodoo control plus and get voodoo sound v10... it makes this phone sound awesome via headphones xP

The only other that I know is 2.2+ specific is Google Music. I haven't really used it much though.

I'm actually working on trying to get the i9000 front facing camera mod to work on our Continuum. I need an i400 I can tear apart and do some fitment testing. I've seen some photos of the i9000 camera and the i500 (Fascinate) camera which I think is the same as the Continuum camera. It might work with a little trimming here and there. Ill post back once I have some results.
This is gonna sound pretty silly but the new Captain America game requires 2.2. I'm not much of a gamer but I actually bought it for $1 in the market and it installed then after the ~150mb download it gave me the error message on my stock Continuum. Took my son to the movie and we loved it, was looking forward to letting him play the game(which was well reviewed). Bah.
So happy to see this 2.2 update stuff. I'm going to have to do my homework now and make a visit to the darkside. I love this phone, will be more than happy to de-bing and de-bloat it!
Speaking of games: Plants vs Zombies and Peggle on the Amazon App store.
Was lucky enough to catch them free, but could not get them to run on Eclair.
+1 for netflix and google-music.
Being able install google search has been very nice as well.
So the Flash works well with this release?
Yes. I just spent the weekend streaming a UFC event on it :3

Oooo...good question!! I love sony's media apps!! I wish we had a camera made by sony. That's what I really miss the most. My xperia x10's 8mp camera, made in 2010, still takes pictures that are far better quality than most 8mp cameras being made today.
There is a ported xperia honami (?) rom in the android dev section that would have all of these. I can't say I've flashed it yet, but I'm pretty sure all the base sony apps work with that one. Historically, though, sony's apps require the entire xperia framework to be ported over, though, for any of the apps to work on other roms. It's not just a simple apk install, unfortunately.
My dream is to have a sony-made xperia nexus that uses vanilla aosp android, but still offers all of the sony apps on top...just not their UI
Isn't this working?
