How to Port Xperia Z5 Premium Walkman
- Download the Sound mod from the download section.
- Now transfer the Xperia_Z5_Premium_Walkman™_Port_v2.0_LP-MM-N_by.zip file into your device’s internal storage. Place the zip file where you can easily locate it.

- It’s highly recommended that you perform a nandroid backup. To backup your ROM, tap on backup option in TWRP and select all the partitions including System, Data, Boot, Recovery, EFS and swipe right where appropriate, to back up.
- Now go back to the TWRP main menu or home screen and tap on the install option. Navigate to the SoundMod file and select it.
- Swipe the confirmation button to proceed with the installation. The ROM will be installed.
- Once installed, reboot to system.
Once your system boots up, you can now enjoy your new Walkman Music app. If you come across any boot loop or face system errors, you can always restore your previous ROM from the backup.
