Here's what I did. Start flashtool. Click flash (before plugging in phone), follow on screen instructions.
[Xperia Play Android Development] Sonny788:
Hey,

What Firmware are you using?

I have the R800a Model

Thank You

- Sonny Dickson
[Xperia Play Android Development] crono141:
I have stock R800x. 2.3.2.

EDIT: I can also report that I am having the market problem. At this point, I think I'm going to relock bootloader, updated OTA, and unlock BL again.
[Xperia Play Android Development] Cat_On_Droid:
Fw doesn't matter btw
[Xperia Play Android Development] crono141:
Big Problem: not only do market downloads not work, but the OTA errors out with the same error: insufficient space to download.
[Xperia Play Android Development] Cat_On_Droid:
Are you on 2.3.4?
[Xperia Play Android Development] crono141:
I had to do a full tft restore in order to fix the market problem. I was then able to update OTA.
[Xperia Play Android Development] Sonny788:
Can someone plz plz plz help me, i can't Flash the firmware to my Xperia Plat i keep getting error Flashing. Aborted :(!!
[Xperia Play Android Development] crono141:
Are you holding the back key down while plugging in the usb cable?
[Xperia Play Android Development] Sonny788:
Hey,

Yes....
[Xperia Play Android Development] Cat_On_Droid:
Flash mode can be entered on any device...

you dont have the drivers installed,not using the 2.9.1 beta,or not highling all the sin folders and putting it in

GREEN LED

when it tells you..
[Xperia Play Android Development] Dousan:
What is all this about highlighting the .sin files? I've seen it stated a few places now and I've never done that and haven't got a single faulty flash. I don't think it matters wether you do it or not. It will flash all the files within the chosen .ftf file. I think peoples problems flashing with flashtool lies somewhere else ;)

Regards Dousan...
[Xperia Play Android Development] Cat_On_Droid:
where does it lie then?
[Xperia Play Android Development] Dousan:
I don't know really. It could be the time out thing or a faulty ftf file or a incompatible file or drivers not installed?

Regards Dousan...

e: It might be a problem with some of the play models R800x/a that flashtool is not 100% compatible with? I think most of the people that has posted flashing issues has been ones with models other than R800i. Haven't investegated on that. but could be?
[Xperia Play Android Development] droiddrums:
I tried to relock my bootloader, I failed. I wasnt sure if it worked so I tried to backup root with ota rootkeeper app . I Let the 2.3.3 update try to instal. It failed and I bricked my Play. It wouldnt even boot to splash screen. It would vibrate as if it tryd to turn on and nothing.

Then I found this post and used the flashtool file provided. This definitely saved my play and its back and running !

Thanks to the Dev for this, you guys are great!
[Xperia Play Android Development] crono141:
Right! I didn't even think about the driver not being installed. Also, I never highlighted the sin files either, and it hasn't affected any of my flashes.
[Xperia Play Android Development] fenix4o9:
if i update and i use this will it keep the update or will it downgrade me again ?
[Xperia Play Android Development] chattguy:
Is there a way to prevent OTA's from even reaching my phone? I deleted the FOTA file on my original Dinc before, is that possible with the Play?
[Xperia Play Android Development] muhski:
Hey Guys!

I justed bricked my phone because I was bored at classes and started the OTA-Update... I totally forgot about my open Bootloader, so now my phone is bricked...

Will I unbrick my phone with *.exe-File from the first post? I tried nothing else up to now!

Best regards,

Muhski
[Xperia Play Android Development] Abaddon:
ugh. my phone is bricked. dunno what the hell happened. at first it won't factory reset on the settings. then rebooted to recovery to factory data/wipe. that was ok.

now it won't boot after flashing through flash tool it says that everything was done then it boots up. all I see is SE logo then a triangular logo w/ exclamation point and a phone below then. shuts off :(
[Xperia Play Android Development] soudara:
hi

use flashtool install original firmware
[Xperia Play Android Development] Abaddon:
flashtool can flash any firmware but the problem is on some firmware it won't boot. SE logo then recovery symbol then shuts-off. on .368 it boots up but all I get is low on space msg then ofcourse some apps will get FC due to low on space msg.

and yeah tried flashing with wipe.

tried erasing through fastboot

fastboot -w command

:(

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Optimizer:
Hi all,

I am new here. At least to the posting and all that. I have been flashing and trying to learn more over the past couple months, and this site has been what has taught me all, so I decided to sign up.

I am running into an issue right now with tethering and I was kinda just wondering if it was normal or am I experiencing something different.

When I am connected via 4g and tethering to a laptop, I can surf just fine, and do other misc. things to get me by, but when I start to download anything, my download speeds are HORRIBLE.

I can run speedtests ALL over the country, and it will be anywhere from 4-6mbps with a 1-2mbps upload. But, when I am downloading ANYTHING, I will get max maybe 100KBps. I just wanted to know if there is a cap on it or something that I can bypass or is this just normal for the way it is.

I am running [KingsROM][Alliance ROM] [Version r6.2] [Sense 2.0] 2.1+3.0 with all updated radio, wimax, prl, ect ect.

Sorry if this is the wrong section or anything, like I said I am completely new to posting ANYWHERE on ANY forum... but this seems like a good place to start.

Thanks in advance!

[Xperia Arc Android Development] jerpelea:
Hi,

This will fix your unlocked Phones which got bricked through OTA update and are dead now!

Please download this package:

MOD EDIT Link Removed at OPs request

Let it extract to a destination of your choice.

After that run Flashtool.exe.

Now hit the button FLASH and select the package which is included.

Follow the steps and connect your phone in flashmode. This is the same mode Pc Companion and SEUS uses to flash your phone to newer firmare (Indicated by green LED), if you got BLUE LED you are in the wrong mode!

Flashtool will now detect your phone and start the repair.

After all is done your phone should be up and running again.

ADVICE:

PLEASE DO NOT ACCEPT ANY OTA'S ! If you receive a OTA message just decline, if you accept it you will end with a brick AGAIN! So please do NOT accept them until SonyEricsson provides a OTA solution for unlocked Bootloaders!

Best Regards

Team FreeXperia
[Xperia Arc Android Development] DooMLoRD:

[Xperia Arc Android Development] Bin4ry:

[Xperia Arc Android Development] DooMLoRD:
oh so thats wht those .ta files are...

thanks for the info Bin4ry!!!
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Halim2k:
Again thanks alot for your effort.

It's not working for me though as I used the renaming simlock.ta to preset.ta method already.

Is there any hope that I can restore my ARC?

I tried the package put gives me error flashing preset.ta and aborted>

Again thanks.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Blagus:
TA files contain hex data that's written to Trim Area of the phone. TA is very sensitive to modifications - if you change some important TA unit (especially in TA Misc) you can make your phone useless.

[Xperia Arc Android Development] seamo123:
Any ideas on how to fix my Xperia Ray? HELP..

Quick backstory - my Xperia Ray won't read my SIM card anymore. It doesn't even ask for my PIN number, it just boots as normal (after asking me to pick a language) but I have no connection to any network. I've tried using the SIM card in another phone and it works fine, therefore the problem is with the phone itself.

I'd recently had my phone network & bootloader unlocked by wotanserver using the test point method - because of this I thought the DRM keys would be fine (e.g. TrackId & Timescape still worked). However, when I was updating from GB .42 to .62 OTA (to flash a GB ROM) my phone bricked! (Does this mean the DRM keys weren't intact? Confused.)

So, I searched for a solution and ended up using s1tool to relock the bootloader. Then I used flashtool to flash a stock ICS ftf file. It seemed to work (the phone rebooted) but it was then I noticed that the SIM card wasn't being recognised. Also, in the Flashtool log I noticed that a blue line was there saying 'this file is ignored simlock.ta'.

Anyway, my real dilemma is - which of the Available Omnius Operations for the Xperia Ray (see link: http://www.omnius-server.com/phone?id=20… should I pick to fix this?

Backup TA

Flash

Identify

Live boot

Repair S1-boot

Restore TA

Revive phone after OTA flash

Unlock bootloader

Unlock network lock by certificate replacement

Should I 'repair S1boot?' Or should I 'Restore TA?' I really don't know seeing as I don'tknow specifically what's damaged in the first place. I haven't gotten a satisfactory answer from anyone online re. this and really. really would appreciate your help as I need my phone back urgently! :)

PS I don't know what that download link you've posted is about - it took me to a dodgy website to download a file called 'downloadmanager

_setup'
