What are these files that get lost when you unlock the bootloader??

DRM or Digital Rights Management is anti-piracy technology. DRM is used by digital copyright owners to control who gets to access and copy their work. For example, protected music files would play on your device but wouldn't work on another device i.e. you can't share it with friends etc.
Cheers!

How do you handle your music? I've got a pretty big collection and I use google music most of the time, but some of my flac files have trouble loading on 3g. So i started putting most of my music on my phone, however, I do have some albums that have individual jpg files for album art and are showing up in my gallery. I read that theres a way to actually embed the art into the file itself to prevent it from showing in the gallery? Do any of you use Media Monkey to handle and sort your music?
I use a program called Mp3Tag. It works well.
Here's the link: http://www.mp3tag.de/en/
+1 for mp3tag. It's awesome. Fixed my entire mp3 collection with it and Monkey before uploading to Google Music.

Hmm, I deleted all my jpg files that I had, did you fix each album separately or did u just do them all at once? Is it worth making playlists too?
That looks like a great program!
Anyone on OS X know of an equivalent?
I use media monkey and mp3gain before I put them on my phone. They work fine in poweramp, no problem with album art.

No there us no Mac version of it. I'm forced to tag my music in Windows then transfer them over to my laptop I use for DJing.

Bummer
I saw there was no Mac version of the specific program, I was just interested in a utility that would do the same on Mac.
Years ago I used one but I cannot remember the name. This isn't the one I used but I might give it a go tonight.

I use Media Monkey. Best app in existence.
I have about 19000 tracks on a synology ds211+ running twonky server and use media monkey over smb shares to manage it all. I have one share I dump all my purchased mp3 in. Have media monkey scan that share when I start it up. After I make sure it's all tagged properly I auto-organize (move) them to the share that Twonky sees for music. Keeps Media Monkey from having to rescan the main library since it's kind of large.
Works for me.
Edit: yes, I ask media monkey to store all art in the tags. And I delete the image files afterward. Amazon mp3 has their stuff tagged so well I never have to do anything more than auto-organize it.

wait, does media monkey auto tag? I just spent hours manually tagging each album (120+) with mp3tag
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using XDA App
Monkey will use parts of the existing tag and search for the rest (including covers). It's not pure auto tagging but it's better than manually doing it.
It's great for finding covers. I use Mp3tag when I want to manually embed a better quality cover than what monkey finds. ...or for tag cleaning.
But for mass album tagging, I use monkey.

SiriusXM app is pretty good, as long as you have 3G & unlimited data.

Hey guys I was wondering hiw does a bootloader lock works and why are the unlocking service only paid services? If some of you have the time to explain that would be very kind to answer me

Thread has been moved to the correct section.
You can unlock for free via Sony, though you'll lose drm (basically any copyrighted media you have purchased via sony, song info via sony etc...) whereas if you pay for the service then you shouldn't lose it. It's fairly straight forward but time consuming. Full instructions are on the site, plus if you search you'll find quite a few threads that'll help...
Easyyyy
The lt15 is free to unlock
Just use thestpoint method

So, as we know our XPERIA's support NFC, in my country we use NFC cards to pay in transport, so is it possible to clone my Transport NFC card to my Mobile and then use my Xperia S as NFC card? I've searched for such apps and haven't found anything, so if you know any such apps let's share it. Thanks in advance
If you can bypass the security implemented into the card then it could be possible
Sent from my Xperia S using xda premium
From my research, the Xperia S is operating on the frequency of a NFC reader/writer.
It somehow refuses to work as an NFC tag such as a card. I tried with an arcade game which supports the use of NFC phones to replace the game cards.
The machine will not detect the phone. However, my phone can read and decode the game card just fine.

Thanks for efforts : )
isnt it more for security? if you can copy travel cards whats to stop someone from copying a nfc credit card?
Most of these cards have read and write and copy protection.

Hey guys, I'm in desperate need of some DRM stripping software for iTunes content and was wondering what you guys are using or recommend. For now I just need free one that will work for music. Not planning on stripping any movies right now.
Thanks in advance guys.

I'm really not doing anything that's not legit. DRM stripping may be frowned upon. And I did try Google but nothing I found was free.

It's not illegal fist of all. The best way is to stop using that virus called itunes. But if you must then burn the album to disc and re-import it as mp3 format.
I did this with all of my itunes albums when I stopped using iCommunist devices. Xbmc organizes music so much better.

Well I won't stop using iTunes because I am a Mac user and do a lot of work with iPhone's and iPad's whether it be jailbreaking or beta software stuff and iTunes is just to easy since I am using my Apple products all the time. I ended up getting a virtual CDRW because getting an actual one is so old school. The virtual ones work very well for music but I need to go to Best Buy and pick up a real one for Movies because the virtual ones aren't large enough.

Anyone having an issue with AVG detecting AC!D SoundMod as malware on the Whomp 2.9 ROM? I selected to ignore this app but wanted to know if anyone has any info regarding it?
Thanks
