How do i devictimize walkman and album of poor design?

[Svigote]

I love the z3. But things like the walkman home and being unable to move, hide or organize photos is frustrating considering how great this phone is. I would like to either uninstall sony integrated apps and and use real ones. Or disable walkman home. There is also two photo viewers and im sick of picking one everything I open a photo. Neither photo viewer opens in a browsable format. Simply lays all photos from all folders out on screen. I don't understand where the idea that random sized unorganized tiles were somehow convenient or easy to use came from but walkman home is a garbage dump I like to avoid looking at. I blame windows 8's metro. It didn't work for them. Get rid of it. Conventional music browsing is what I want. And id prefer if that was an option. As well as foldered photo browsing so I don't have to hide my phone until I find the right photo. If you know what I mean. Someone please help me to do this. I would hate to have to switch to something else.

You keep saying that but it's irrelevant. I know they all do. I'm asking how to remove them or modify them. Not if they're there

I already gave you the OBVIOUS answer, ROOT your phone, disregarding on the brand, rooted and customize it as you please.

this is a sony not a Samsung... I liked the music player samsung had in the s3. Thats all I said about samsung

Here is the answer again or options

1 root your phone (any android)

2 flash a custom ROM

Rom = read only memory
Not a very helpful description.

Wreck your phone? why would you do that? If you don't follow the steps or unlock the bootloader you will, but that is true for any ANDROID device and also iOS (jailbreak). Check the XDA forum

contact Sony directly and let them know what you are requesting.

I'm not a developer. I don't want to lose the features offered by . I just want to avoid the useless "home" screens in albums, photos, and music.
