[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] netizenmt:
OK, I have been where you are, and maybe this VERY brief summary will get you started.

1. Root - you did that.

2. Download and install the CWM for locked bootloaders from this link here.

3. Follow the instructions to power off, then power on and press down on the Volume Down key to enter the recovery mode. Then go to the Backup/Restore menu and backup the phone. This creates a Nandroid, or image of the phone so you can put it back to rooted stock if you mess something up.

4. Download and install Titanium Backup from the App Market. You can use this to uninstall any bloatware, including System files, but use with caution so you won't need to use your Nandroid! :) There is a safe list thread here that will give you some help in what you can remove.

5. Apps for Android usually come from the Android Market, or another market that hosts Android apps like Amazon AppMarket, etc. So any program you want to install will generally need to come from there. (Yes, I know there are some apps around that some Joe Ubertech wrote, but in general, you will want to get apps from the Market or a Vendor site, like Gameloft or EA.)

6. Use an App2SD program to move as many apps to your SD Card as are able to go. This frees up internal storage so you can run smoothly and have a lot of apps too. I like Droidsail Super App2SD (ROOT) because it lets you select a group of apps at one time to move. Do NOT move to SD any app that is accessed through a widget, or any replacement launcher program.

7. Be aware that Programs marked as System files cannot be moved to SD. However, some of them, like the preinstalled games, GMail, Youtube, etc, are also found in the Market. You can either delete them and reinstall them from the Market, or use a program like Root Explorer to manually move these to a folder on the SD card. Then reboot your phone, and you can reinstall them as user apps and be able to move them to SD as well.

8. Read. Read, read, read, READ everything you can get your hands on here in xda. It has been the best source of info for the Xperia Play.

I hope this helps you get going. Have fun, and if you run into trouble, someone here will usually be able to help you get going again.

Cheers! :)

Hey guys. Just bought an HD2, have flashed android 4.0 alpha on it, but I wanna give this phone to my girlfriend who lives in another state. She currently has a Mytouch Slide and I want to put a sense Rom on this phone because that's what she is familiar with. However I wanted to know what the most stable Sense Rom with the best battery life is? Is prefer a Sense 3.0 Rom but any version of Sense is fine. She doesn't use mobile web , only WiFi, and she usually texts and calls with it, very light app usage, if that helps describing her habits. Appreciate the input!

Flash this CLK bootloader in the right partition layout and follow instructions.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1114053

After that flash clockwork mod 5.2.0.6.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=987531

Partition your Sd card with a 1024mb Ext4 partition... you can do that with clockwork mod.

And flash this rom.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=908528

Most stable rom out there.... for daily use.

The advantage of CLK is that your HD2 boots like a native android.

So your girlfriend can't touch anything of the bootloader etc.

For any info take a look at this thread.

As the post above said, I personally find Android 2.2 with Sense 2.0 the most stable and fastest type of ROM out there. Perfect for daily use and if your girlfriend isn't bothered about having the latest version of Android :)

Check clk partition sizes, make sure you have flashed a clk (and sense) compatible kernel. First boot can take up to 10 mins.

I am a new owner of the Galaxy S2 and Desire HD coming from, I must say that I regret the lack of technology Beats Audio. The audio quality in headphones or speakers does not excites me that much.

[HTC Wildfire S] emveefr:
Hi everybody,

I have a big problem with my phone (or with my sim card).

Since 2 days, and without touching anything, my phone has a lot of difficulty to connect the Network that I'm registered to (Orange).

I'd got some connection problems like these ones :

- "Your sim card doesn't allow you to connect this network"

- When activating the 3G it stays on "activating" (even if I reboot the system and pull out the battery for few seconds)

- Non-send messages

So I decided to wipe all data and reinstall. It worked…but…the next day it restarts..!!

Do you think it's caused by an app or by rooting the phone with xtc-clip ?

My specs

:

- S-OFF

- Rooted

- RUU_Marvel_S_HTC_Europe_2.13.401.2_Radio_47.23a.35.3035H_7.53.39.03M_release_225747_signed.exe

PS : the RUU has been installed with the sim card inside the phone of course.
[HTC Wildfire S] intel007:
Installing ruu with sim in shouldn't be a problem.

Easiest thing would be try another sim before deciding what to do next mate.
[HTC Wildfire S] emveefr:
Thanks for replying.

In fact my phone network works again since I've created the topic but I don't know at all how ..

I've tried my girlfriend's SIM yesterday but it is a blackberry one and I don't why my phone doesn't accept it to register .. I will try again or use a friend SIM this week end.

BTW does your 3g connection make about 5sec to be activated ? Before the problem appears in 1/2 sec I've got the 3g. Now it's more, but it works.

This is not an APN problem 'cause they're all OK and for messages it's not a problem from message center since it's OK.

So I am always wondering how the phone could have this behavior without any changes.

If it makes the same again, I will call my operator to know more about it and will make a feedback here.
[HTC Wildfire S] intel007:
It could well be network/operator related maybe they have a problem.

Anyway main thing is your back up and working again.
[HTC Wildfire S] emveefr:
The problem isn't resolved unhopefully... It doesn't work at home .. Sometimes yes, and the rest of the time no network (even if I got all the bars of the network and the Edge Logo) and I can't do anything.

I called the operator yesterday, they say my SIM card was defective so I went to the operator's shop and they changed the SIM card.

But back at home, it doesn't work again .. And now I'm at my job's office and it works again ..

So I conclude that there is a network problem in my block of flats ?

I will call back them tonight to see what they tell to me and will make a feedback here.
[HTC Wildfire S] emveefr:
Also I tried to swap phone, the same problem with my old Sony Ericsson.

I put my SIM in my girlfriend's Blackberry (network used to work for her), and it does'nt work. Then when she puts back her SIM card, she had no network as me...

So could it be a hack of SIM card to prevent you having network at home ? (it could seem a lil bit paranoiac I know ^^)
[HTC Wildfire S] intel007:
I don't think so mate.

More probable is that the mast that provides data that is closest to your home is at fault.

I would just make sure to report it and I'm sure others will have issues, so your provider should investigate and provide a solution.
[HTC Wildfire S] emveefr:
I called the network provider, they say they will call me tomorrow for me to talk with a technician.

BTW my girlfriend called them earlier and they say this is a problem due to the residence.

I tried to ask them if there is a problem with the mast, they said it seems to be normal and network works well in my area...

But the network is fine out.. In the appartment it works about 10/15mins per hour ...

For the "SIM Hack" suggestion I told you, do you think this is possible ? (I doubt because no problem out ..)

Let's wait and see ! If you have any suggestions, don't hesitate !

Thanks for the support though !

Edit : always all the bars of network and E logo just sending, not receiving when it doesn't work.
[HTC Wildfire S] intel007:
Maybe your building is a blackspot meaning signal is not passing through happens to me indoors with wifi.

And where I live in a small village I can't get a good data signal indoors.

I have to turn off 3g altogether and opt for 2g only as it gives me better call signal.

But if I walk for 10 mins towards town I can switch to 3g and its perfect.

I would just wait to speak to the tech guys and see what they say.

Oh and forgot to mention my operator reduced my monthly bill due to my poor signal, haha.

Good luck hope they sort it for you.

If not try a different network sim just as a test.
[HTC Wildfire S] emveefr:
The strange fact is that it used to work perfect in the building.

There are problems for about 4 days now.

When I forced 3G using "WCDMA only", it seems the signal was better and not blocked on E/G.

And now I turned it back to Auto and it works .. I don't understand what the **** is happening... !! It comes back to 3G/H.. but sometimes it fails again ..

I will wait for the tech guys, and if it's not solvable I guess I would ask for a commercial act such as yours :) !

Moreover this week, friends will come so we will see if they've got network (I believe they're at the same network provider, no luck ^^) .. !

Thanks for your support again mate, really appreciated ;) !
[HTC Wildfire S] frtb:
My phone just started doing the same thing. Its a stock phone.
[HTC Wildfire S] emveefr:
Finally nobody called me back but the network came back so no more problem now.. How ?? I simply don't know .. Good job "Orange".. !

Thanks for support though :)

It will download it to the correct folder.

If you're downloading it a lockscreen from somewhere online, download the theme and move the file to MIUI folder under themes.

So.. (MIUI/themes)

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] quick99si:
The WiFi radio on my phone seems to be crashing and restarting every few minutes. It disconnects and reconnects non-stop, whether data is being transmitted or not. It's doing it with the screen on or off, and the OG Epic works great in the same spot at the same time. Sometimes, it'll keep the WiFi radio turned on while transmitting via 3G.

I've tried the stock ROM/kernel, Calkulin's setup, two LOStkernel, Rogue 1.1/1.3, and probably more. This is after full wipes and reflashes. I've disabled all security on the router, rebooted it, moved around the house and nothing. I've also tried setting a static IP address on the E4GT, and toggling the sleep policy to never turn it off.

This is driving me nuts! I was hoping to get some input, maybe I'm missing something simple, before I take it in to Sprint (their wait times are ridiculous).

Thanks

Download ODIN (below). It does not work on Macs. You will need Heimdall and can be found HERE << LINK.

HERE IS ODIN << DOWNLOAD THIS

MD5: E012B512C1579C3AF7A38A27FD905B86

TWO FILES ARE NEEDED TO LOAD IN ODIN FOR GOING BACK TO STOCK JFD (2.1 Eclair)

The PIT FILE << DOWNLOAD THIS

The TAR FILE << DOWNLOAD THIS

Quote

MD5: 632730F6B637F53E5B10E5CBC8B966A7

Move all files to Desktop.

- Mount your phone and move the rom to the internal (sdcard/ ) & the update.zip file (if needed)

- Power down the phone, or pull the battery.

3 - DOWNLOAD MODE

*NOTE - IMPORTANT*

On my PC, ODIN will NOT work when my camcorder is plugged in.

If you notice ODIN not working, you may pull the battery if it has not started/hung (again, at YOUR risk, not my fault/responsibility). Remove any USB devices just in case if you are worried about it, I have to.

Quote

1- Open ODIN on your PC. (DO NOT PRESS/SELECT ANYTHING IN ODIN!)

2- Plug in the USB Cable to PC

(preferably the one that came with your phone *My N1 cable doesn't work??*)

3- Power down Phone if you had not already.

4- Remove the battery.

5- Plug USB into Phone.

6- Hold down BOTH volume buttons and while holding both, insert the battery.

7- Two to three seconds later your phone will be in Download Mode.

Be mindful to not remove connection while ODIN is running.

** ALT METHOD

You can also just power down the phone, open ODIN, load the pit and tar, connect USB to pc, hold both volume buttons and connect USB to phone. This is how I do it. Some are not able to do this so the above instructions were used just in case. **

4 - ODIN

Go back to ODIN on your PC. Should be a yellow box under ID COM, Something like COM 5. If not, likely a problem with your drivers, see this THREAD FOR DRIVERS that I created. Should help. If you were on Cyanogen or MIUI you may need the Nexus S Drivers, Google them.

Click the PIT button, Select the PIT file from desktop

Click the PDA button, select the TAR file

** Re-partition is checked now in ODIN - THIS IS APPROPRIATE!! **

Click Start. Unless ODIN hangs, you should see a progress bar start soon after. The process takes a few minutes and you told ODIN to reboot once done.... so... when your phone boots up, you are on stock JFD.

IF ODIN HANGS ON YOU:

- Are you using my files (all 3 of them?)

- Did you check the MD5 using Hashtab (LINK)?

- Are you using the cable that came with your phone?

- Have you tried other USB ports on you PC?
