Hi folks, looking for a bit of help with this ROM and my Xperia PLAY.

It's bootloader is locked, but I have the root app. I then used the auto-CWM app to get me the CWM Recovery menu and from there I installed the GBTweaked ROM.

Thing is: it seems that the ROM install has knocked out my CWM Recovery, so now I can't get into the Recovery menu to install the wifi fixes.

Tried the auto-CWM app and it won't take. On every boot there's no CWM. Tried the CWM script with the ADB drivers, but it can't detect my PLAY. I'm stuck! No CWM = no wifi fix, and with no CWM I can't even resort back to the start!

All help is much appreciated. I've been trying this for about 4hrs this evening... :(
[Xperia Play Android Development] :
this happened to me also. to fix it i had to reflash the firmware again. when you install gbtweaked, quickly shut off and try to go to recovery.
[Xperia Play Android Development] ronniet:
Thanks for the reply.

But how do I reflash the firmware? Bearing in mind my bootloader is locked and I can't get CWM to try another ROM :(
[Xperia Play Android Development] zektor:
This is one rom I never tried until tonight. I have been running CM9 (which is great) but missing alot of good things (game compatibility, touchpad issues, camera recording, battery life, etc). I decided to go back because I purchased the Xperia as a gaming device, and I had a better game on 2.3.3 ;)

This rom is GREAT. It has the look and speed, uses DoomLord's kernel (I am unlocked) and has the compatibility of the stock rom. Thanks for this! I'll stay here for awhile until the CM9 bugs are ironed out ;)
[Xperia Play Android Development] Captainfrost:
For people that got cwm uninstalled keep rebooting ur phone i had the same issue but i rebooted a cuple times and waited then i tried it an it works. I aldo had to reinstall wifi modules idk if anyone had the same problem with wifi
[Xperia Play Android Development] zektor:
The "problem" with wifi is not a "problem" at all. Basically, the modules that are included with this rom are modified wifi modules for use with DoomKernel. In order to install/use DoomKernel, you need an unlocked bootloader.

If you are installing this on a locked bootloader, the built in DoomKernel modified wifi modules obviously will not work, so after installation you have to go back into recovery and install the STOCK wifi modules.

Not so hard to comprehend ;)
[Xperia Play Android Development] Captainfrost:
It kind of is a problem if something doesnt work
[Xperia Play Android Development] netizenmt:
Well, it's only a problem if you don't use the right wifi drivers! :D
[Xperia Play Android Development] ronniet:
True, I understand the idea behind it using the DoomKernel, but if I'd known it was going to wipe my CWM and effectively lock me out I'd never have installed it. :(
[Xperia Play Android Development] zektor:
Can't you just reinstall CWM Installer v4 again?
[Xperia Play Android Development] ronniet:
I wish it was that easy! I've tried reinstalling CWM using the auto-install app, no go. Even tried installing CWM using a script, but it can't detect the phone. :(
[Xperia Play Android Development] zektor:
Been some times since I have been on a locked phone. Can you fastboot boot recovery.img?
[Xperia Play Android Development] paxChristos:
If it's locked, then you can't use fastboot at all.

Thanks for no help, I already tried using google but all i was getting was them saying I had to use adb shell but right now I dont have any rom on the phone its completely wiped and sitting in clock work recovery
[Xperia Play Android Development] paxChristos:
The only problem with the link is that if you do have a corrupted download, then you will only succeed in bootlooping your phone. (If you post a md5sum of the download, people can compare it to what they download to see if they got the complete one)
[Xperia Play Android Development] zektor:
Ummm..let me think for a second...

YES! Absolutely, YES! Why would I not want a v6 final? :D

Can I request something tho:

Either stocker launcher, or the ability to use a patch/update to use stock launcher. Everyone uses ADW, and while I think it is a nice launcher, it f's up all to many times. I have had it glitch out of control multiple times over the past few weeks, and it used to glitch (icons/shortcuts disappear, etc) on my previous phone as well. Honestly, I would prefer a stable launcher...even if it means going back to stock.
[Xperia Play Android Development] Schwabie64:
Yes!! That would be awesome!!
[Xperia Play Android Development] Leraeniesh:
What new features/fixes do you guys want in v06?
[Xperia Play Android Development] University of Pi:
I just found this a few days ago and am working on flashing it now...

how about a better browser like dolphin mini over the default android one

(sorry if there already is one it wasn't clear in the thread and again I'm working on getting it on my phone now)

also noob question;

do just I zip 2012-02-06.21.30.47 and restore to that?

I really need to read more carefully and pay attention
[Xperia Play Android Development] University of Pi:
FYI using the xperia CWM auto-installer app

after installing can't boot into CWM

have to reinstall CWM using a different method

also damn this boots fast
[Xperia Play Android Development] Beanerman:
Oh heck yea
[Xperia Play Android Development] Beanerman:
Manray, did u unzip the file before copying the final folder into your cwm? Also, make sure u use the restore option in cwm, not install from zip.
[Xperia Play Android Development] Schwabie64:
Alright so what University of Pi said about having more power options built in; reboot, airplane mode, recovery, stuff like that.

And maybe status bar widgets (or whatever you call them) so you can toggle wifi, data, gps, flashlight from the status bar.

Facebook sync.

And what Selim873 mentioned about exDialer and the ICS Theme and ICS Messaging.

From Rom Toolbox I installed Stetsonaw's Epic Blue theme and I think it is pretty Epicly Blue with the rest of your Rom.

And I'm not trying to force you to do this just given some ideas.
[Xperia Play Android Development] University of Pi:
how about power options like reboot built into the power dialogue
[Xperia Play Android Development] Schwabie64:
Also I've been using your ROM since yesterday and everything I reboot the phone titanium backup disappears. Not sure why?
[Xperia Play Android Development] Leraeniesh:
TitaniumBackup.apk needed to be moved from /system/app to /data/app
[Xperia Play Android Development] Schwabie64:
Thank you much.
[Xperia Play Android Development] Schwabie64:
And maybe a battery with percentage.
[Xperia Play Android Development] Leraeniesh:
Due to new information on a possible OTA 2.3.4 (or ICS) Update from Verizon (click here for more information), this ROM may be based off said update. If this is a 2.3.4 update, v06 will be based off said update (with a flashtool file for those that cannot receive the update)

This is still a MAY, so please be patient. If this is a ICS update, then I would advise you to update to the upcoming ICSTweaked ROM.

Anywho in the V5 release it states that market compatibility was fixed due to the dpi being set to 210. Just wondering if you would be willing to share how you fixed the market?

You guys actually plan to use 2.3.4? :p
[Xperia Play Android Development] Captainfrost:
yeah why not
[Xperia Play Android Development] Schwabie64:
I prefer it because it is compatible with the most games on the market. Unlike ics as of know.
[Xperia Play Android Development] 216Monster:
Because Vz released outdated firmware that works for 2% of the users and it makes me laugh ;)

I will agree it gives better compatibility with games, it would only be worth using is Leraeniesh does update this, I'm sure he will (Im not making an expectations for him though) But if he does, just give him time. Meanwhile you guys could just use 2.3.3, add updated baseband files and call it a day, the 720p video capture wasn't that big of an improvement IMo.

Not trying to pressure him or anybody. I was mostly interested in Facebook sync as the only other rom that currently offers it is the UK rom. Which I'm currently using. And of course the ability to play games. And auto brightness disabled.
[Xperia Play Android Development] 216Monster:
Auto brightness is in the kernel ;)
[Xperia Play Android Development] Schwabie64:
Yup the UK rom runs on the .145 build were as the .88 it can be disabled. And yes I've tried Pax's and Doom's .88 kernels with the UK rom both cause a bootloop.

:(

As I said one of the main reason I'm still using the UK rom is because of Facebook sync.

Hey sorry if this is off topic, and please don't be disrespectful, I'm just a noob trying to get help.

OK here goes, so I reverted back from 2.3.4 to this rom. It was the best 2.3.3 rom for this phone w/ locked BL, that I've tried. And what I'm trying to find (ran searches in the apps and themes sub forum and the Android OS sub forums with no avail, I must be using wrong keywords or missing something to get me in the right direction) I'm trying to get some ics themed system apps for use with this rom.(contacts, dialer, SMS, browser, and whatever else I can get my hands on.) Can someone Please get me in the right direction or better yet link me to exactly what I'm looking for. Any help is appreciated, thanks in advance!

And yes, I have OCD when it comes to the appearance of my phones OS. So please help! Currently I'm using Go launcher and all it extensions, with an ics theme that supports almost all the Widgets and addons. But I'm really unhappy with the contracts and dialer and would much rather have stock apks with an ics theme to it. Thanks again!
[Xperia Play Android Development] kelvenha55:
Also another thing is I can't update Google music, It gives me an error saying its not properly signed. Using root explorer to delete it from system/apps screwed up my market, all my apps disappeared from the "my apps / installed apps" section and although Google music is deleted i get an error saying its already installed (yes I rebooted after deleting) and all my other installed apps have a ribbon above them saying its not compatible with my device when searching them. I reflashed a fresh copy, now I just need some guidance, thanks again in advance.

Edit: also titanium is unable to convert it into a user app as well

If it says CDMA or R800x then that usually means that it is compatible with the Verizon version of the play.

Well let's see here. Screenshot option to appear when holding down the power button. Music controls on lock screen, or ICS lock screen if possible, theme engine, crt animation, Replace the stock camera with Camera ICS (it's in the play store and does a really good job mimicking the ICS camera), organize Widgets for example if you have multiple Widgets from an app gather that into one category like beautiful Widgets are not all scattered through your Widgets list but have it's own folder, volume music controls or l and r trigger music controls, swipe left or right to dismiss an individual notifications instead having to use "clear all button", in application settings add options to deny permissions from apps, and option to blacklist #'s from dialer. These are just a few suggestions of course. Although I'd really like if you added an ICS lock screen or something similar to that ( I really like ring style lock screens)

Noobie here

Whats going on guys? The past few months I've just been obsessed with my Xoom (incredible XDA support) and my Xperia play has just functioned as my comparably ****ty phone haha.

I paid Alejandrissimo to unlock my Verizon R800x and then rooted it. I don't remember much of what I did besides using the paper clip to hard boot it haha so I just have some questions:

1) Is this ROM suitable to flash on an unlocked rooted stock 2.3.3?

2) Would you recommend it for someone like me who isn't GREAT with the flashing and modifying files and whatnot? (I was reading some of the workarounds for problems earlier in the ROM's life cycle and its a little out of my realm)

3) What are problems/concerns with ROM? in general and also in terms of Verizon service/warranty etc? (just wondering)

4) How do I boot into flashboot? And recovery? I forget. and all of the files to use for flashing have to be on the sd card right? not internal memory?

5) Any other tips?

Thanks SO much in advance....this phone is great in many ways (I love playing emulators and apps with gamepad) but its so slow and ugly in alot of ways too. I'd really appreciate some guidance in getting my phone back into shape lol
[Xperia Play Android Development] Leraeniesh:
I would not suggest using this ROM if you are an unlocked user.

Cyanogenmod9 has recently been released for the R800x, I would suggest you move onto that. Installation is relatively fast and easy, with basic understanding.

You can find a guide on how to install it here, as well as the latest CyanogenMod release from here.
[Xperia Play Android Development] University of Pi:
1. Well, not really.

2. No I'd recommend a freexperia or something unofficial build of Cyanogenmod

3. Rooting and unlocking already voided your warranty and voided Verizon's Terms of Use, breaching your contract technically.

4. I don't know flashboot for this recovery you have to have installed. for locked there are scripts and an app but for unlocked you can install a real one

to enter it you press some button when the kernal boot screen comes up (SE logo)(and on mine the LED flashes blue)
