I will be discontinuing support for this ROM.

I would suggest you unlock your bootloader via http://unlockbootloader.sonymobile.com/instructions and move over to ICS/JB.

If you need assistance in doing so, visit this thread.

Happy flashing :D
[Xperia Play Android Development] Schwabie64:
Hey how has the PACman rom been working for you? And thanks for all the work on this rom.
[Xperia Play Android Development] Leraeniesh:
Everything is great.

Except for battery life.

I s that the one you would recommend? The last rom I flashed that wasn't gb was AOKPlay by Supervenom.
[Xperia Play Android Development] Leraeniesh:
I would highly recommend it.

I'm sure the battery issues are related to a issue on my device.
[Xperia Play Android Development] Flyinduke:
Just installed this as an alternative to jb and ics. So far everything is good, but has anyone had any luck with the home screen button?
[Xperia Play Android Development] crazymonkey05:
Yea I'm sure it is as I can go about 2 days with moderate use using stock governor and I/O scheduler with clock speed at 100Mhz to 1Ghz
[Xperia Play Android Development] Cyborg Slayer:
So in Clockwork Mod mode I go to Restore and it says No file found, even though I put the ROM folder in the Clockwork Mod directory (it didn't have a Backup folder though - am I supposed to make one?). Any ideas? Been trying this for like a week now.
[Xperia Play Android Development] crazymonkey05:
Yea just make a backup and you should have the proper folders
[Xperia Play Android Development] Woddii:
need help

Could someone please upload the ROM and clockworkmod ? Want to install that, but i cant find it nowhere
[Xperia Play Android Development] Cubsfan3493:
Freakin' Sony, promising bootloader unlocks but then never giving them. Absolute terrible way to keep a good reputation.

Okay thanks for the clarification.

[Xperia Play Android Development] DeanBoro:
they did give us bootloaders.. its your provider who had relocked the bootloader and had fastboot disabled ;)
[Xperia Play Android Development] MadHarryRackham:
Does V4 work for both locked and unlocked bootloaders? Did not see a different link this time around
[Xperia Play Android Development] Leraeniesh:
Yes. Both are now one nandroid backup.
[Xperia Play Android Development] ozzmanj1:
The link is not working to download.
[Xperia Play Android Development] Jayzonl:
New update looks/runs great! Had to flash wifi modules again for some reason, but otherwise it's perfect. Thanks for all the work you do!
[Xperia Play Android Development] Cubsfan3493:
Freakin Verizon. =)
[Xperia Play Android Development] Dudeness83:
I believe the correct terminology is "**** Verizon. = ( "
[Xperia Play Android Development] ozzmanj1:
Is it me or does the new v4 update say 'do not flash"? How are we supposed to install this ROM if we cannot flash it? Or are we supposed to uncompressed and do a nandroid restore from it? I'm guessing its a nandroid restore but want to make sure before I pull the trigger.
[Xperia Play Android Development] Leraeniesh:
For one, its in a .rar format. Unzip, move the folder, and restore the backup.
[Xperia Play Android Development] netizenmt:
Thanks for the Nandroid. :D I'm going to experiment with this tonight. Wish more people would have an interest in devving for the locked bootloaders among us.
[Xperia Play Android Development] nickholtus:
hi,

You can flash all stock based roms, just ask someone to create a nandroid.

Going to test this out later today. I was wondering though which kernel everyone is using the 2.0Ghz or the 1.6Ghz version? Thanks in advance.
[Xperia Play Android Development] 216Monster:
I'm using the 2.0ghz but its gonna depend on what your cpu likes or does not like ya know.
[Xperia Play Android Development] netizenmt:
Well, OK, I think I done messed something up. I can't get back into Recovery mode and I can't get the CWM Recovery for Stock Bootloaders to recognize my device is connected. I can put it into USB mode and access the sdcard from the PC, so it's not the drivers or the port. :mad:

I love problems like this though. Thik how much smarter I'll feel if/when I figure out the answer! :p

EDIT: OK I fixed it, but I feel dumber, not smarter... I was trying to use the CWM for my daughter's Vortex. That's what happens when you do this stuff when you're supposed to be sleeping! :o :rolleyes: :D
[Xperia Play Android Development] CrimsonKnight13:
Reboot your PC & give it a try again.
[Xperia Play Android Development] Leraeniesh:
Was having problems booting it useing update.zip method. Also the nandroid gives you a better ecperiance alltogather.

[Xperia Play Android Development] XperianceIT:
yeah.... uhhh.... love it!.... ONE small issue.... i cant get back into recovery now! I even re-rooted, wich SuperOneClick still showed my device as being rooted, it did the root again anyway, but i still cant get back into recovery! Any help? Thanks.

EDIT- Ok, got it rooted again, and CWM re-installed, now lets try this nandroid back up again!.... lol
[Xperia Play Android Development] netizenmt:
The reason you can't get back into recovery is, assuming you have the locked bootloader version of CWM, it gets installed into the \system folder. When you restore the GBTweaked Nandroid, it formats the \system folder prior to installing the nandroid. Apparently the OP didn't include the CWM recovery in his Nandroid (since it can be used on locked or unlocked BLs, I would imagine), you have to reinstall CWM.

The Market issue is probably related to changes made in the build.prop file.

My wifi was also broken after installing this ROM. Since it was basically not much different than what I had already done myself, I just restored the nandroid I made before installing GBTweaked and everything started working again.
[Xperia Play Android Development] XperianceIT:
So, there is no way to use this AND our Wi-Fi? If so, that's a show stopper for me. I don't have unlimited data, so I primarily use the Wi-Fi.

[Xperia Play Android Development] odst0016:
Try flashing wifi modules don't know if you can bit worth a try
[Xperia Play Android Development] XperianceIT:
Where can i get those from?

Leraeniesh - Any chance you have a update to fix the wifi? I love this nandroid, it is absolutely beautiful, but with no wi-fi, i cant use it. Also, just my 2 cents... can you update the BUG section to reflect no wi-fi, and update the instal steps to reflect, you have to re-instal CWM after. Your steps say to play with it for a bit, after it loaded, then to go back into recovery and re-wipe data/cache, maybe put a blurb in there about re-installing the CWM. (most people would know, but im a tard, and im sure there are more.... lol) that woulda saved me about 3+ hours worth of work. Thanks, and keep it up, i cant wait to the future of this!

Install DooMLoRDs wifi modules.

Reinstall CWM after restoring the ROM

At the moment, market can't be fixed.

Sent from R800x
[Xperia Play Android Development] Jayzonl:
Flashing DoomLords wifi modules will fix wifi right up. Took me a bit to realize CWM needed to be reinstalled as well. To fix market issue, d/l something that can change your LCD density (root tools), change it back to stock value (240 I'm pretty sure), reboot into recovery, wipe cache/dalvik, then wipe market cache/data from manage applications and every app should be compatible again. D/L the app you want and change LCD value back to 210 if you prefer the smaller resolution.

That's how I got mine working....let me know if that helps.
[Xperia Play Android Development] ekklesiaillusion:
Flashing dooms wifi mods works perfect. Awesome work, donating to multiple people later once i get this paycheck. Keep up the good work!
[Xperia Play Android Development] XperianceIT:
How do i flash the modules, is it just a nother nandroid backup, that i restore via CWM?
[Xperia Play Android Development] ekklesiaillusion:
Download dooms modules using the link odst0016 provided below

move that zip into into your SD card, go to CWM and install zip via SD card. click that zip you placed and reboot the phone
[Xperia Play Android Development] ekklesiaillusion:
Don't know if anyone else is experiencing problems using location settings. Weather widgets along with websites aren't able to pull my location although I've looked over the settings and they are how they usually are. Only thing i have noticed
[Xperia Play Android Development] Leraeniesh:
Expect Notification Toggles in next update.
[Xperia Play Android Development] Jayzonl:
Awesome! I managed to get jimmyvau's toggles to work on your latest update, any chance you will be able to combine that with odst0016 ICS theme? I'm really digging the toggles, but they would be even better if they were blue.

[Xperia Play Android Development] ekklesiaillusion:
Any suggestion on the GPS not working? google maps, websites looking for my location, weather widgets?
[Xperia Play Android Development] Jayzonl:
Leraeniesh - what type of features could you include with this rom?? The only other features I can think of from past phones I've had are things like different lock screen options (rotary, aosp, 4-tab, MIUI, etc) and power button menu options (reboot, recovery, power off, airplane, etc). Any of those possible??

How about including the modded camera app as well (the one that uses R-button as shutter).

That's about all I can think of other than theme'ing certain apps - messaging, phone dialer, contacts, browser...

Thanks again for all your work!
[Xperia Play Android Development] Leraeniesh:
R Camera Button tweak was already applied in v01 (read first post).

I've been working on Power Button Menu Options a bit already.

Like the lockscreen idea
[Xperia Play Android Development] Jayzonl:
:o Oops...missed that in the OP
[Xperia Play Android Development] XperianceIT:
integrated Screenshot ability would be cool,! Not sure how feasible that woud be.
[Xperia Play Android Development] paxChristos:
Would it be possible to make holding down the back button kill the current process sometime in the future?
[Xperia Play Android Development] paxChristos:
Just tried Google maps on an unlocked bootloader and I had no issues, it locked onto my location using gps in seconds (make sure Google location service is on...)
[Xperia Play Android Development] jimmyvau:
A reboot function in the power menu would be great. I was actually looking up some stuff last night on how to do it, but I haven't convinced myself to make the commitment. I was going to do reboot and reboot recovery. I'm not making any promises, but are there any other options that people would like?
[Xperia Play Android Development] ekklesiaillusion:
Yea I can turn on Google services by itself, or with Vzw location

I receive this as a message every time

If I turn on standalone GPS it will work but drains battery using standalone GPS all the time.

I have a locked boot loader, only difference I can think of.
[Xperia Play Android Development] 216Monster:
I would myself be more then happy just having reboot an reboot recovery!

[Xperia Play Android Development] DubleJayJ:
Can't wait until Monday for the next update!

One question though, how do I install the wifi modules?
[Xperia Play Android Development] ekklesiaillusion:
Download the zip he posted on the first page and put into the sd card of your phone. Reboot your phone, go into CWM recovery and scroll to install zip from sdcard. Scroll to the zip you put on your sdcard and follow the screen. Reboot after its done and your good
[Xperia Play Android Development] DubleJayJ:
Thanks! Will do.
[Xperia Play Android Development] Beanerman:
Fantastic

Thank You! :D:D:D

Everything worked great on my verizon r800x CDMA Locked BL. I am soooo glad people have taken the initiative to give us Lockees some good stuff too.

If the wifi modules were already in it would be an improvement, but I just installed dooms stock 1 and no prob. Might need to clarify that lockees don't need to install dooms kernal 1 just the stock 1.

Thanks again man! Awsome work.

Oh, one question. Why isn't titanium or OI filemanager or the like already there so we don't have to re-download it?

LOL, i guess that would be another upgrade.

Keep up the good work man. :D:D:D
[Xperia Play Android Development] ekklesiaillusion:
I agree with that file explorer and titanium included in the rom.
[Xperia Play Android Development] Leraeniesh:
Titanium wont be added, File Explorer will.

Some people have paid for Titanium, so they should restore that from the Market.
[Xperia Play Android Development] DubleJayJ:
When is the update going to be released today?
[Xperia Play Android Development] Beanerman:
Sweet. File explorer will work. Thank you.
[Xperia Play Android Development] ekklesiaillusion:
No update for v05? Waiting patiently
[Xperia Play Android Development] DubleJayJ:
Ya when is the update coming out?
[Xperia Play Android Development] g9man:
Hey guys i have found a loophole in the market problem. No modding required. All I did was

Start up my utorent and killed my bandwidth by seeding a lot of files.

Then I connect my xperia play to my WiFi network.

Go to a app that said file wasn't compatible with the device.

You will see the download button as soon as you click the app.

Click the download button and it will ask you to accept and download.

At this point it will say Device is not compatible on the top. But under that you will see the progress bar filling up as it downloads and installs the app!

I also recommend you go to mange apps, and clear the market's memory before doing these steps.

And you can kill the utorent as soon as you hit the download button. I have installed about 10 apps this way.

Try it and let me know if it works for you!
[Xperia Play Android Development] ekklesiaillusion:
Already a fix for this. Go to manage apps, clear cache/data for market. Then you open your build.prop in the /system/ folder and scroll to the bottem until the last group of code and you'll see LCDdensity=210 at the top of the group. Change that 210 to 240 and Restart your phone. Now open the market, once your in the market you can close it and go back to build.prop and change it back to 210 and restart again. The market will show you apps based on your LCD being 240(stock) not the 210 it is at now and was at when getting errors
[Xperia Play Android Development] Beanerman:

Im not able to work in Notification Toggles at this time.

I have a locked bootloader R800x from Verizon, and I restored the nandroid backup provided in the OP to install this ROM. Problem is, I can't install CWM recovery, so I can't boot in to recovery to install DooMLoRD's WiFi modules, and I don't have working wifi.

The CWM auto installer doesn't work (it says 'installed' but after a reboot it says 'click here to install'), and when I reboot and press volum down repeatedly nothing happens (the ICS boot animation shows up). Any ideas?

P.S. I've tried installing the CWM recovery manually as well (move files in to /system/bin and /system/xbin/) and now the auto installer says 'CWM is installed' 'Click here to reinstall', but I still can't boot in to recovery.

Edit: What in the world? It's working now. I had to move the files manually in to place using ES File Explorer (which was installed through adb since I don't have access to the internet), change permissions, reboot, install the CWM Auto Installer, 'Click here to reinstall', and now it works!

How can I get back into recovery or what's your guy's best way? I've tried the auto CWM installer but I can't get into CWM at boot although the app says its installed even tried pushing the files for it manually with a Jrummy's root explorer still no good.
