You just showed your age. Do not call yourself a dev because you're not. You're done kid that thinks he knows what he's doing but in reality doesn't. You have not built a ROM from the ground up so stand aside. You need to learn some respect for real developers such as myself. I've been modding and developing since before you hit puberty. Try being humble and you wont look like such a douche all the time. It's pretty simple to anyone that knows the inner workings of and Android device that if you force it to stop an operation that it's been told to do its going to cause damage. Read a book please, get smarter. Because you're not even in the same league as me. I've seen you're work and you're an amateur that steaks other ROMs and puts tweaks into them. You may be able to truck the simple minded, but you will never become anything unless you learn to grow up and know what you're doing. This is why I don't come on xda because most everyone on here thinks they are devs and know everything. Truth is, this site is 90% noobs and devs the rest. Stay in school kid, you need it.

First off, you're wrong about the front camera, it's the ambient light sensor that controls auto brightness.

Second off, what have you done to help the community?

Stop trolling and help out.
[Xperia Play Android Development] KeiranFTW:
If your a "dev" then why don't you do some development?

Your post isn't worth a reply, I am not going to lower myself down to your level....

You two should just pm each other, stop sharing your arguments with us!
[Xperia Play Android Development] KeiranFTW:
Its not that much of an argument, seen as though FreeXperia are disabling the light sensor themselves.

But sorry for the arguing anyway, I apologise for any inconvenience caused.

EDIT: And now the meme is dead.
[Xperia Play Android Development] Mysticales:
If you are gonna make a XDA meme.. You need to use the G1. =) Where it all started. I still use mine after 3 years. One day I may switch to the G2. I do have a good modded HD2 and my streak 7 and now an xperia, but the g1 is still <3

Also what was this in the change log about touchpad and gamepad fixes? I didnt have an issue with them so what issue was it?

[Xperia Play Android Development] :
Is it possible to put the modified Stock SE Launcher for .42 with glass dock to /syste/app and delete the ADW Launcher?

I have tried this:

Extract the original Home.apk changed all the Files with the modded Launcher from Xplay Themes Section put it again to .zip and renamed it to .apk and signed it with Auto-Sign

Copyed it to the root of my SD Card, deleted ADW Launcher and moved the new launcher in /system/app. Pushed the Home Button and it does nothing..

Can anyone help me? I need it for the xperia arc theme, so i wish to have a completly stock look of SE UI on CM7 :P

Looks like a quiet update to 107 thanks
[Xperia Play Android Development] jerpelea:
FXP107 released
[Xperia Play Android Development] ihsanfauzi:
when the FXP107 for CM9 to released?
[Xperia Play Android Development] Serge SB:
Ok, its not funny anymore. This story continues:(

1. Got R800i.

2. Flashed "R800i_4.0.2.A.0.62_(1253-4437).ftf" with FlashTool.

3. Flashed boot.img from FXP107 with fastboot.

4. Entered into ClockworkMod and:

4a. Wiped data/factory reset.

4b. Wiped cache partition.

4c. Formatted /cache, /data and /system.

4d. Applied FXP107 update.

4e. Applied gapps.

4f. Rebooted.

And again, the phone boots till the homescreen (when lucky) or till CyanogenMod logo. Freezes for half a minute. Reboots.

Help.
[Xperia Play Android Development] nickholtus:
hi Serge SB,

do it all over again

but than don´t FORMAT system data and cache!!

that is causing problems
[Xperia Play Android Development] homeworlder:
Excactly. Nick is right, i've never formatted, both because i never read anywhere that i needed to do it, and because that not formatting works just fine.
[Xperia Play Android Development] Serge SB:
I've done formatting this time, because of this advice. As you can see on that page, I've tried different FXP versions and different base firmwares (see my first post).

The only good news now are: I flashed old boot.img from 7.1.0.1 CM, its version is 5.0.2.6. And FXP107 booted ok! But at least camera and flashlight don't work. Hehe. So, FXP107 freezes with its own 5.0.2.8 bootimg, but loads ok with old 5.0.2.6 bootimg.
[Xperia Play Android Development] nickholtus:
i think you are using wron kernel.

what one do you use?

in the .7z or .zip?
[Xperia Play Android Development] Serge SB:
Maybe my fastboot.exe is somewhat old or like that? So 5.0.2.6 is flashed ok, but 5.0.2.8 - not so ok?

Another question about this tool is: in the 3rd message of this topic it is said, that the tool should be run like this: 'fastboot flash boot boot.img'. But this doesn't work for me, and I'm using it like this: 'fastboot -i 0xfce flash boot boot.img'.

---------- Post added at 03:48 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:41 PM ----------

They are bit-to-bit exactly the same. You can check it:) Ok, anyway, the answer is: I'm using the one from .7z.

By steps:

1. I download 107's update-cm-7.2.0-RC0-XperiaPlay-R800i-KANG-signed.7z

2. Extract it

3. Copy boot.img to the folder, where my fastboot.exe is located

4. Copy update-cm-7.2.0-RC0-XperiaPlay-R800i-KANG-signed.zip to the root of my sd card

5. Insert card to phone, close cover

6. Hold search button, connect usb cable

7. Run fastboot -i 0xfce flash boot boot.img

8. Disconnect cable, power on phone

9. Pressing many times volume key, until I enter cwm

10. Next steps I already described.
[Xperia Play Android Development] nickholtus:
then try it without formatting system cache data
[Xperia Play Android Development] Serge SB:
I did this too. Same result.

---------- Post added at 04:16 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:05 PM ----------

Right now I tried flashing 062, then fastboot, then installing 107 from cwm. BUT this time I hadn't formatted or wiped anything. Result is The same. *WALL* sorry
[Xperia Play Android Development] KeiranFTW:
Typo.

You put:

fastboot -i 0xfce flash boot boot.img

It should be:

fastboot -i 0x0fce flash boot boot.img

Team Darkforest
[Xperia Play Android Development] Serge SB:
"-i <vendor id> specify a custom USB vendor id"

0xfce is exactly the same as 0x0fce and equals 4046 in decimal. But I tried your advice anyway. Same result.
[Xperia Play Android Development] CrimsonKnight13:
This quickly becoming rediculous

FXP,

1. You only have 1 post with your signature in it & its the newest update all of the way near the end of this thread.

2. You keep using uploaded.to & not heeded what a lot of people are saying is giving them trouble. I can't download it at all & I prefer not to go through shady sites like rapid8.com that require me to turn off NoScript & AdBlock Plus. No damn way.

3. Why have you seemingly stopped listening to the fans here?

4. No folders can be accessed via rapid8.com. I tested it just to make sure.

I definitely don't appreciate any of this & I'm sure others will agree.
[Xperia Play Android Development] Ellises:
I'm also agreeing, this is becoming sick, I cannot even test the latest versions of FXP's ROM out. FXP please change your download host. You are becoming a very irritating developer because of your effort to ignore all your usa fans. I see no freaking clue why you want to do a download count, cause after this whole fiasco, your download count is obvious 0 for the ones who cannot access.

Also, I got into rapid8.com, have no ad blockers running or anything, and this site just fills my screen with popup windows and does not link me to the download url pasted.

So now I ask, who wants to mirror FXP's cdma rom since they have failed to reach this point?
[Xperia Play Android Development] AtomicKoala:
Woah, woah. FXP is BASED in the USA.

Uploaded.to is just as crap in Europe.

FXP stated their reasons for using this service.

I highly doubt FXP are trying to ignore people from a specific place - that's ridiculous. The world doesn't revolve around the U.S., and it seems that users from the E.U. and elsewhere who get the same release times and information as you.
[Xperia Play Android Development] agraceful:
No worries.. there is no 107 for cdma anyway, unless they have hidden it with a different name. So it's a big **** you to r800x from fxp. :)
[Xperia Play Android Development] KeiranFTW:
Look, to those who are starting to call FXP an irritating developer, its their choice where they upload there releases, so best not complain. Uploaded.to gains you money for downloads, and although I despise it, it is FXP's choice to use that uploading service.

Try using JDownloader, I have heard it works, apart from this the only thing you can do is wait for a mirror. Maybe I could start a KANG thread where you can download CM7 Kangs? Just put up with uploaded.to for now, it is bound to change in the future.

Team Darkforest
[Xperia Play Android Development] CrimsonKnight13:
I like having my choices & as it already is, R800x ROM & kernel selections are fairly slim with varying degrees of updating (or total lack thereof).

I don't care if US isn't in the center. I never thought of it that way anyways. I just want a reliable hosting site that can be accessed by all & not be a round-about way.
[Xperia Play Android Development] Serge SB:
Well, any other ideas about my fxp freezes?

Could you please tell me, who are the developers of this FXP? (sorry, I'm a bit newbie at this forum) In case there's any possibility to debug this problem - then it'd be great. Maybe it is somehow possible to turn on logging or something, so we could see at which point and why it stucks?

My latest idea is: maybe SIM card somehow can affect the flashing? Does it make difference, whether it is inserted or not?
[Xperia Play Android Development] jerpelea:
THANKS FOR YOUR KING WORDS

instead of working on R800x for last 6 hours i should drop this device

and enjoy my free day

we are not payed to serve you !

@ users complaining @ downloads

you cold reconsider after last changes @legal matters

uploaded.to is the only site that for now offers ftp upload, statistics and unlimited upload

if you can not access it use an free proxy or rapid8.com

to improve download speed you can register (you will get 100k limit), pay premium if you can not wait (no limit)

or use jdownloader which can resume in case your connection drops
[Xperia Play Android Development] jerpelea:
R800X released
[Xperia Play Android Development] Serge SB:
Ok, I've submitted this issue: link to bugreport. What's new: I've taken two log files. Interesting, logging just suddenly terminates, when the phone freezes. And the last line is somewhat strangely corrupted.
[Xperia Play Android Development] sonicfreak360:
GRAWR!

FXP, in all due respect, really, in all due respect...

I can't download it. You may as well stop developing for the R800x until the downloads get easier. I can't download it, its way to complicated! I can tweak my system, but I can't even download this!

IF ANYONE CAN MAKE A TUTORIAL ON HOW TO GET THE DOWNLOAD TO WORK, PLEASE SHARE IT!!!!!

[Xperia Play Android Development] wissamidrissi:
I have R800i but thanks FXP for the R800x mirror :D you are the best!
[Xperia Play Android Development] CrimsonKnight13:
It may true that you don't get paid to develop any of this but there are a lot of people on this forum that also don't get paid. I acknowledge that but before you made a mirror of the R800x release, most of us couldn't even touch uploaded.to or the folder that you have the files within. We can use rapid8.com for direct links though. I can understand your need to have a site that has all of what you need it to do.

Just don't get us wrong that we don't support your work or what you gracefully give to us as a free gift. I may not always have cash to donate to devs who provide excellent work out of their free time but I do try to provide feedback & bugfixes to keep the headaches away.

I think its hard to gauge what you're intending exactly since your posts here are intermittent at best & you don't always explain everything in detail right away unless people hound you for such information. We as users or fellow devs/hackers can't give you the proper support unless you let us know what help you need.

That's all I have to say. I do appreciate the mirrored R800x link. That you have my thanks for.
[Xperia Play Android Development] wissamidrissi:
You are not talking to me but I shall answer, finding a free VPN with 1gig a month is easy and enough for today, using TOR!!! is easier and you can fix your end node IP it takes half an hour to learn all that but I will assume you already know, is much much easier then uploading it all over again, specially when you try to meet deadlines and test for something you are not and will not get paid for. I am not saying this cuz I am an asshole that have R800i, I really feel you. waiting for something to release and in the end you can't get it.

but a little patient my friend, and with good words good things comes :)

and are you really gonna use this ROM for daily life?, I flash and debug for the sake to get a stable version, can't survive without stock for now.
[Xperia Play Android Development] NeWCuLTKiNG:
Type in free proxy in Google works for me in us
[Xperia Play Android Development] Mysticales:
FXP, I do thank you for the work you do, but while all this legal stuff is going on. Are you saying the google project wont let you upload the file? Long as you arent including the google stuff on it, I think they are ok since its a custom rom. Also will the new CDMA updates include the camera fix for us or do we still need to patch it? (Also still wondering about the "Get Games" not working right.)

Wonder what touchpad and gamepad fixes is being talked in the changelog?

Ok guys can someone please give me a bit of help.

I once flashed CM7.1 using the files and guide from the Official Cyanogen website. Untill now I didn't see any reason to follow up this thread, however as of now I've noticed this Rom and more functionality and I prefer it iver what i got at the moment. So I understand the concept behind it, but one thing I don't really understand is why do we need to use Flashtool. I mean Can't I just downlaod the Provided Kernal and put it on the root of my SD card, then boot into CWM-based Recovery v5.0.2.6 which i can do without the need of Flashtool or even connecting my phone to the PC. All i do is I can chose to boot into recovery and done. To make it easier for you guys to understand what I'm trying to say here is, (Metaphoricaly speaking) I don't see how i can fit in the use of Flashtool in this equation of Flashing this Rom. Can any way give me a hint or correct me please, thanks is advance :D
[Xperia Play Android Development] paxChristos:
Boot partition is locked, so we can't use cwm to flash kernels. Use Fastboot.
[Xperia Play Android Development] arian009:
Thanks so much, makes a lot of sense now, though I have one question, does that apply to installing the actuall aswell, and also i've notices that the creator of this Rom regularly updates the version, does that mean everytime a new version come the whole process must be repeated? i.e. Flashing the kernal and then flash the ROM? :rolleyes:
[Xperia Play Android Development] Serge SB:
We need FlashTool to flash baseband (ftf firmware, -64 is required for latest FXP). We need fastboot to flash kernel (boot.img).

You do not need to flash baseband, if the requirements to it's version had not changed. Also you do not need to flash boot.img, if you already have flashed the same version of it (obviously).
[Xperia Play Android Development] arian009:
Thanks for the info

Could tell me where I could obtain the Baseband ftf firmware, -64 for my r800i because the ones that are linked under FXP's signature seems to be baseband -62 as a matter of a fact and also seems to be for the r800x series. Any suggestions?? :D

errm ok I'm a little confused now, can you tell me where I can get fastboot from please

================================================================

Edit: Hold on though, there is an option in flashtool program to go to Fastboot mode or Flashboot, so does that mean flashboot programm is the only thing i need for flashing both kernal and baseband?
[Xperia Play Android Development] Serge SB:
I used 4.0.2.A.0.62 ftf firmware (wich contains -64 baseband). You can download it from here: http://narod.ru/disk/38546579001/R800i_4.0.2.A.0.62_(1253-4437).ftf.html or you can google it anywere else.

Please, report here after you will install FXP. Because my R800i fail to boot FXP107:(
[Xperia Play Android Development] arian009:
Ok sure, but one thing though, doesn't that mean the problem must be from this specific baseband, I'm just gonna try to find another and I will report how it will go, mean while anyone reading this feel free to provideme with a Baseband -64 for my R800i while I try to find one myself. If you do want to, please provide me with the link. Thanks

=============================================================================================================================

Edit: Ok guys never mind, i found a baseband myself it's this one http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1409355

- Also now I have all the needed files ready to start

And one final thing can someone quickly guide me through, which order shall I start flashing, i.e. should I first go for 1) Baseband 2) Kernal 3) ROM - Or 1) Kernal 2) Baseband 3) ROM

Finally some emotion from fxp! YES! It's about time sir. My words weren't meant to be kind, they did exactly what I wanted, catch your attention. It seems that you (or team if there is one) is over worked. I understand that. But not keeping the community informed or asking for help, or just ignoring them completely doesn't show well on your behalf. I don't think you're intentionally doing so, but at the same time you must keep in mind that everyone is here to HELP, well, majority is anyway. I have developed with android devices for years now, never asked a dime (don't really care to) but I keep a few things in mind. There is always someone smarter then me, more minds equal faster solutions, and if something gets behind, informing the community about so will let them know you give a damn. I dev because I love the challenge and it's an awesome feeling knowing what I did came from nothing. All I think the community wants to see is that you actually care. If you need a break, please, do so. Just say hey this is getting to be too much I must take some time or myself. Everyone will understand. As for the links, just a notice, anything over 100mb won't be downloaded from rapid8. Maybe someone will mediafire can mirror for you and give you download count? Just a thought. Believe it or not, the community is rooting for fxp.

Touch pad are not working correctly according to this test app: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1045374

Wich uses SE's own example source code. One notable thing is that it seems to think it's the touchscreen :/ and very poorly calibrated at that.

Feel free to include that app in the releases if you want. It's completely based on SE example code with just some manifest and icon changes from me. It tests the touchscreen and the touchpad. It's also one of the few free apps that shows in the xperia play launcher if you're ever going to do anything with that.

Once flashed, how easy is it to update this firmware? Does it require doing reloads of the firmware entirely, or is there a built in updater tool for CM that will smartly update, preserving phone settings and content, like an OTA firmware update would?
[Xperia Play Android Development] Logseman:
On most CyanogenMod-powered phones, you can use a program called RomManager which is basically a GUI for ClockworkMod (ROM backups. flashing update.zip files) and if you have the premium version, you can subscribe your phone for firmware updates and have them installed automagically if they're available. You can even choose if you want to wipe your data, back up your current ROM, before you update.

However, this will be more difficult on the Xperia phones, because you need fastboot to install the kernel, unlike other phones which allow kernel updates on update.zip files. Since you need a PC in order to use fastboot, completely OTA updates are impossible. Still, I think I heard one of the FreeXperia folks saying they'd do something with RomManager.
