the music player's UI its quite nice BUT it doesn't have an equalizer

[slimshaddy]

but equaliser was mentioned somehwere:smileyconfused:

[Uliwooly]

there's probably a way to port the equalizer or at least the Arc's equalizer. At least we can go back to the original music player by uninstalling the update

I'll just add this here for the n00bs

Settings -> applications -> manage applications -> all -> music -> uninstall updates

The live wallpaper its quite interactive

tap on it to zoom in/out

touch the globe to rotate it left or right
