if you flash corect semc rom 4.0.2.A.0.42 and latest kernel 43 from new uploaded rom wifi will work without bootlops
[Xperia Play Android Development] DeanBoro:
Thankyou very much I used the latest firmware from this thread then flashed the FXP43
[Xperia Play Android Development] HewGBalls:
I had a go again with the latest files and Im still getting bootloops when selecting wifi. I have tested everything else to be working fine and the camera quality is poor.

Can you please provide a link for FXP42 which will work on my R800i because I want to use CM7. Previously when i tried #42 the update file was named r800x which was not flashing.

thanks
[Xperia Play Android Development] Atze_Kraut:
Still bootloops...
[Xperia Play Android Development] jerpelea:
did you wipe ?
[Xperia Play Android Development] gotoman00:
problems with fxp043 cdma version?
[Xperia Play Android Development] Atze_Kraut:
Sure. I do all the steps 3 times. But still got bootloops after i turn on the wifi. Flash new FW,flash img, wipe cash,data and install cm7 via cmw. Same error all the time.
[Xperia Play Android Development] HewGBalls:
I agree, I tried it 3 times and it still bootloops.

@FXP

The boot.img last modified on 29 Feb 2008
[Xperia Play Android Development] ncaissie:
Does all of this work get undone when the next update comes? Like 2.3.4?

Sorry if this is a noob question. By that I mean do the devs have to do all these changes to every new version?

Also to test this do you just flash it to your phone? and can you just re-flash the original ROM to get back to the SE one?
[Xperia Play Android Development] Nhialor:
This build is currently 2.3.4! But I wondered this myself too, what happens when CM 7.2 comes out, do they rebuild that from scratch, or is it possible to just update to it? Any chance of getting an OTA update function?
[Xperia Play Android Development] axiomjunglist:
If you unlocked your bootloader, yes all you have to do is run FLASH_BETA file in the folder to try it out. I would recommend using Bin4ry's recovery fastboot image to make a backup first. Then you can go back to your stock rom easily. You need to use flashtool to restore the stock kernel after you use recovery to go back to stock or wifi and the camera won't function.
[Xperia Play Android Development] crispyduckling:
also now that we can overclock the cpu to 1.5ghz

can the gpu be overclocked too?
[Xperia Play Android Development] ncaissie:
How did they get their hands on 2.3.4?
[Xperia Play Android Development] svenk919:
Google should share its source since it's based on linux and that's opensource.
[Xperia Play Android Development] ammarcool12:
Android is open sourced :P

Btw its been more than 2 months since cm had 2.3.4
[Xperia Play Android Development] Nhialor:
Yup, the advantages of Android Open Source OS :)

Also, found a major bug, which IMO is a game breaker, cause the features that it affects, I use a lot!

I listen to music via a bluetooth headset (Jabra BT3030) and usually have it connected to my car radio and the odd time would use Google Navigation aswell, while the music is playing when the Navigation wants to say something, it dims the music and usually says it clear and loud through the car radio. Not on this build, the music dims, but when the navigation app says what it has to say, it can barely be heard it's so quite.

Anyone else confirm this?
[Xperia Play Android Development] jerpelea:
small progress 012

-recovery fully integrated and automated in build system

-optimised system

-added all missing cm7 apps

-fixed market keys (should fix missing market apps)

-enabled animations

-standard graloc from cm after kernel patch

-disabled bravia engine (will not be available in cm rom)

many more to remember
[Xperia Play Android Development] Meister_Li:
Looking forwards to flashing and testing that one! :D Thanks for the continued awesome work!
[Xperia Play Android Development] Ireas:
whats exactly the "bravia engine"?
[Xperia Play Android Development] Meister_Li:
It's a special mode the Xperia Arc Display can run in when displaying fotos and video to make them appear more vibrant and colorful. It's not available on the Xperia Play anyway.
[Xperia Play Android Development] Scorbion:
"Optimized system" Should we expect a nice improvment in performance? (IE:Games and video playback)
[Xperia Play Android Development] Nhialor:
YAAY, I can't wait for this. You guys are just too good at this! Wish there was a like button or +1 button beside posts!

Any chance of being able to update without having to wipe user data?
[Xperia Play Android Development] svenk919:
There is actually. It's the thanks button (next to the quote/quick reply buttons).
[Xperia Play Android Development] axiomjunglist:


Guess I have plans tonight now! :) Man, the speed these builds are coming out is awesome... Will report findings soon.
[Xperia Play Android Development] Nhialor:
Yeah I know, but I don't always want to thank someone for their post (though I do in the above case) but it would be cool if you got notifications of thanks/+1/likes etc. etc.
[Xperia Play Android Development] Nhialor:
I used flashtool and now it's boot looping, any ideas why?
[Xperia Play Android Development] svenk919:
If you can get into fastboot just flash a system.img to fix bootlooping (either from backup or from this forum(Get the .145 rooted system.img then is my advice or try one of the costum sustem.img files like the gp2xperia one)). This will not wipe userdata normally.
[Xperia Play Android Development] Nhialor:
Will 012 fix the touch pads?

Getting serious battery drain on this version! Only lasting a few hours, and charging via USB is VERY slow...!
[Xperia Play Android Development] JasonKnight:
yea it requires "semc rom 4.0.2.A.0.42" but we are still on version 3. something
[Xperia Play Android Development] Mills00013:
It doesn't exist yet. There are still problems with the lag, see the quote at the bottom.

This has nothing to do with us. That update is only necessary to upgrade the baseband on the GSM chipset. CDMA users are already up to date. See the quote at the bottom.
[Xperia Play Android Development] 91ludesit:
Any ideas what is causing the lags? Things we could be doing to help FXP troubleshoot them? Unless they have everything they need already?
[Xperia Play Android Development] jerpelea:
i forgot to push an patch

playstation games fixed
[Xperia Play Android Development] Atze_Kraut:
whats about my bootloops on FXP43? :confused:
[Xperia Play Android Development] jerpelea:
trying to replicate but i can not

did you wipe?

please download the FXP043b (maybe you still have the first release)
[Xperia Play Android Development] axiomjunglist:
FXP43b working fine on my R800a. Mobile data working, no issues with wifi. Used latest rom from the OP.
[Xperia Play Android Development] DeanBoro:
FXP does this have app2sd where files install to ex3 or ex2?

edit: also playstation games dont seem to work, they hang on the health warning o.O
[Xperia Play Android Development] :
Another brilliant update. Version B installed and working.
[Xperia Play Android Development] DeanBoro:
does psx games work for you?
[Xperia Play Android Development] HewGBalls:
thank you :) 43b works so good

no wifi bootloops

super fast

camera is good aswell, for some reason in previous build with wifi bootloops the camera was poor

games work with pad, I tested assassin, bandicoot, battalion, brucelee and Madden. only hot pursuit force closes

GPS working tested with copilot

two things I've noticed

led is green when phone is charging

network signal bar showing and changing without simcard inserted so unsure how reliable when simcard is present.

I will report back more findings + battery life soon
[Xperia Play Android Development] Nhialor:
is the video recorder bug fixed? what about the touchpads with psxperia? still got to reinstall preinstalledservice.apk on each boot?
[Xperia Play Android Development] Atze_Kraut:
install 43b....(5 a clock in the morning)

wifi works (THANKS!!!)

vibration works

very fast

Now I have to work 8 hours first and reports in between.

[Xperia Play Android Development] aDigitalPhantom:
I got fxp042 cdma graphics smooth, I think this is what made it work. I took the libEGL.so and egl folders from from fxp043b and added them to the fxp042 update.zip. I don't think the other things I did would make much of a difference

edit: not uploading this at all, was told not too.
[Xperia Play Android Development] jerpelea:
CDMA FXP043 is ready

will be uploaded in 24h
[Xperia Play Android Development] :
Funny you should say that but touchpad isn't working for me I have found. Anyone else test this for me. I'm using Minecraft pocket to test.
[Xperia Play Android Development] HewGBalls:
Touchpad is working fine for me. Tested it on most of the games that come with the phone and a paid Assassin chronicles game.
[Xperia Play Android Development] mehdi.moha:
is there any hope to enable "ultra brightness " and bravia engine on next update ?:)
[Xperia Play Android Development] 91ludesit:
Are wifi/mms/camera all working on FXP043 for the CDMA play?
[Xperia Play Android Development] NeoandGeo:
I'm doing a nandroid of my current system, I will try CDMA FXP043 shortly.

EDIT: No lag so far on the boot animation, or the keyboard. Going through the gapps process now, but all the hardware buttons seem to be borked for some reason.

EDIT2: Still having trouble touching the edges of the touchscreen.

Heh, got stuck in a text message since the hardware buttons are not working. restoring nandroid. f:(
[Xperia Play Android Development] mehdi.moha:
it's worked fantastic on my phone :)

i wish some day you change the CM7 to SE's default theme :rolleyes:

your work is really GREAT but me and all of my friends like SE theme-homescreen-featuers - widgets ...

thank you ,

we will wait till that day :D
[Xperia Play Android Development] 91ludesit:
You know you can use the theme chooser and download an SE theme from here.
[Xperia Play Android Development] Logseman:
There are Xperia themes for any launcher. Go Launcher has a really neat one...

The only thing you miss are a couple of widgets.
[Xperia Play Android Development] Atze_Kraut:
I love it

Hi 91ludesit,

Would you be able to point out which themes on that thread are for the Sony Ericsson?

Thanks

[Xperia Play Android Development] jerpelea:
this is verizons fault

we have to use special kernel for cdma as cdma is still on 3.x software

i will repost son new cdma rom with fixed buttons
[Xperia Play Android Development] JasonKnight:
any update on the camera? :D and speaker volume ;)
[Xperia Play Android Development] Mills00013:
Thanks for the update, FXP. You and your team are the best.

Thanks for sticking it out with us.
[Xperia Play Android Development] jerpelea:
it is still in testing
[Xperia Play Android Development] DeanBoro:
PSX Games still do not work on GSM. They hang on safety screen.

CDMA FXP043a released

new kernel and new wifi lib
[Xperia Play Android Development] NeoandGeo:
Downloading 043a now. Will report results.

Phone doesn't seem to boot with the new kernel. Just sits on a black screen.
[Xperia Play Android Development] Cat_On_Droid:
check PSXperia gaames. Those are the most important ones..
[Xperia Play Android Development] Mills00013:
I'm getting the same thing. Flash goes successfully. Phone vibrates when power is pressed like it should, there's just no activity. No logcat yet either.

Edit: I just flashed the Kernel from FXP028A (I tried 3 different ones before I got it to boot), and it booted like magic. Camera starts, but its a white screen. Bottom buttons work. Wifi works. There is no lag. After a week of dealing through the lag of 42, I want to cry a little at the speed of this ROM. I am concluding that this could be the first usable build combination for CDMA users since FXP025.

How to use flashtool

I have tried to put cyan on my phone it boots but camera does not work so i have been told to use flashtool to flash original software but i have never used flashtool before and dont know what version to get and how to use it someone please help me :confused:
[Xperia Play Android Development] :
Found that my minecraft pockets playing up
[Xperia Play Android Development] Garner:
Sorted it just flashed stable 7.1.0.1 and it all works great to see cyanogen on my phone again cant beleive how fast it is comprared to nexus one lol
[Xperia Play Android Development] ando_uk:
does this rom do 720p recording?
[Xperia Play Android Development] Mills00013:
I'd also like to note that on my FXP028A kernel, FXP043A frankenbuild R800x that USB tethering is working flawlessly as well as the gamepads. I'm in love.
[Xperia Play Android Development] Leraeniesh:
After two months of using FXP025 I can't wait to finally be able to use my touchpads again.
[Xperia Play Android Development] DeanBoro:
None of the PSXperia games works =/
[Xperia Play Android Development] gotoman00:
using fxp043a cdma rom with the fxp028a kernel, pretty stellar so far... only bugs i notice are the white screen in the camera and the volume is still pretty low for everything compared to stock.... didn't try flashing the 43a kernel initially as others said they were having problems.
[Xperia Play Android Development] MAster224:
May i ask where you got the FXP028A kernel
[Xperia Play Android Development] Aightu:
Already found my awnser.
[Xperia Play Android Development] Leraeniesh:
Any FXP kernel (except FXP043a) is working.
[Xperia Play Android Development] sonicfreak360:
Ignore this post
[Xperia Play Android Development] Leraeniesh:
Been using FXP043a for a few hours now, here's what I've noticed.

-LED Flashlight doesent work

-Camera white screens and wont take pictures

-Touchpads are working

-LED Notifications are working

-No lag that I've noticed (HUGE improvement over FXP042)

-Installation of non-market apps is noticeably longer.

Other than that, most stable build yet!
[Xperia Play Android Development] JasonKnight:
idk, 025 had a working camera just no outbound MMS and no working touch pads. this has no camera, led flashlight dont work, and if it is like the other previous builds im scared the volume is still at 50% of what stock is.

which brings up, how is the Volume of Ringtones and Notifications compared to 025 and later builds where they were like 50% quieter?

if it is still quiet 025 is still the best option in my opinion.
[Xperia Play Android Development] illuminerdi:
So what's the difference between this (43b) and the 7.1.0.2 that's on Cyanogen's Github? Is FreeXperia separate from the github repos of CyanogenMod for XperiaPlay?

I've got 7.1.0.2 and I can't get the Xperia Play Launcher installed, and some games (EA's games, like Dead Space, Battlefield, etc) don't recognize the Xperia controls, however games with mappable controllers (emulators) recognize it ok, they just accept the mappings as what appear to be keyboard inputs but it otherwise works.

Any tips on getting the controller working? Is FXP 43b any better/newer than CGM 7.1.0.2
[Xperia Play Android Development] mehdi.moha:
hi guys

is there any hope to adding SE nice widgets (( timescape - video and picture )) - ultra brightness - bravia engine and xloud on it ?

thanks all
[Xperia Play Android Development] er_popo:
I am with you, though I do not believe the timescape that it many people ask, but the sheen ultra, for the bravia engine and the xloud if that serious his since for my it is the only thing that has better I KNOW
[Xperia Play Android Development] antEris:
Seriously...if you want timescape...we HAVE timescape. Use a stock tweaked rom! If you like that UI and that's what you want to use there is NO reason to use cyan. Please, stop asking to add SE stuff to a non-SE rom. This has been asked a billion times, and I die a little inside every time I see a new post has been made, only to find its this again...

Please?...

For R800x users, how is the battery life?
[Xperia Play Android Development] Ellises:
For me the battery life has been so-so, normally by the end of the day on FXP023 my battery would be at the 40% mark, today using FXP043a it got down to 15% left of the battery.

se rom tweaked with doomkernel v5 work better cm7 43b not stable for me
[Xperia Play Android Development] andreadb:
Yesterday I have installed the Cyano 7.1.0.2, starting from the last official SE. The camera and the flash were not working, additionally I was not able to use touchpad in dead space.

Today I have reinstalled the last SE fw, and the installed FXperia 043b. But nothing changed. Camera and Flash always FC, and touchpads don't wrk in Dead Space.

Am I doing something wrong ? It seems that other people are able to use both camera and touchpads.

R800i here.

Bye

Andrea
[Xperia Play Android Development] Atze_Kraut:
Cm7 is the one and only system. Bye and have fun with a copy / paste ROM:)
[Xperia Play Android Development] Logseman:
There is no one and only ROM. It's best to have a lot of choices, both stock based and CM7 or AOSP based. And I can say that developing stock based roms takes time, effort and ingenuity.
[Xperia Play Android Development] mehdi.moha:
ok , easy man . that is just a request like before ,

are you a developer ?
[Xperia Play Android Development] illuminerdi:
I'm still not clear what the difference between CM7.0.1.2 for Xperia and FXP 43b is. Can someone enlighten me?

CM7.0.1.2 ?!?:eek:

where do you see that ?

do you have any link about that ?

---------- Post added at 10:40 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:37 PM ----------

i asked this question from doomlord and he said that yes , if you using the last version 0.....42 !

i think it's better to ask this question from doomlord directly to make sure that i'm right or not :D
[Xperia Play Android Development] :
Don't! .. I flashed the kernel over my fxp42 and its starts succesfully.. buuuuut: nothing reacts.. settings menu is black, power menu is black. So i decided me to flash again the original .368 firmware and then step by step the fxp042. Hope it works.

Can anyone tell me where i can find the fxp041 kernel?

Thanks, good evening :D
[Xperia Play Android Development] Nhialor:
can someone explain to me something. We have the FXP branch of the CM7 tree, and we have the official branch as well. Which is better and which one should I be more inclined to use?

Which will be more reliable...if problems are spotted and are fixed in the FXP version, will they still exist in the official version? I'm so confused here. And what's the story with nightlies?

I'm currently using the Official 7.0.1 and it's got a much better battery life than the FXP version, but I want to know which to use in the long run? ICS and all that coming out, which would be better to stick with?

Thanks,

Niall

How complete is the stable version of the official CM7? Last I heard people were having trouble getting it installed on their R800i devices.
[Xperia Play Android Development] stewart1988:
http://download.cyanogenmod.com/?device=zeus

update-cm-7.1.0.2-XperiaPlay-R800i-signed.zip ?

I though FreeXperia was merging into CM and not making a sperate rom or was I mistaken?
[Xperia Play Android Development] Nhialor:
I've 7.1.0.1 Official and everything in it is perfect, except that preinstalled service is required to be reinstalled on every boot and camera recordings play back super fast
[Xperia Play Android Development] NeoandGeo:
That is a little ridiculous they released it as stable if it has the video recording bug. To me that is still in beta stage.

"Stable" should only be be a label for a final and complete ROM with everything working 100%, imho. I mean, I could label quite a few of the FXP CM7 releases as stable since they work ok on a daily basis without crashing, but if I were to choose between a beta tag, or stable. It would be beta, plain and simple.
[Xperia Play Android Development] illuminerdi:
I'd just like a more concise delineation between the two. Aren't the FXP people involved in the CM7 port for Xperia? I'd assume they know the differences.
[Xperia Play Android Development] mehdi.moha:
