1) nope

2) all the kernels have a built in recovery, so that one doesn't really matter

3) nope, with testpoint, it just unlocks the bootloader, nothing else changes

4) Wotanserver or flashtool. I've used both multiple times on an unlocked bootloader.

Oh the wait is killing me. I feel like a kid waiting for Christmas to start!
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] paxChristos:
Yupp, I completely understand the feeling :P

I'm gonna respond to your PM here, because it's general knowledge that should be for everybody :P

What you're gonna want to do is the following

1) Download this: http://www.mediafire.com/?bp6tlnv9r750rxr It's chevyowner's port of CM9

2) He does have a kernel included in his zip, but for some reason, my phone decided that it didn't like it so instead I used this one: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1541482

2) If you want the gamepad buttons mapped correctly, follow these instructions: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=23507172&postcount=552

3) After you install the rom, but are still in Recovery, download this fine: http://www.mediafire.com/?su27w59c2qd25t1

Connect your phone, make sure /system is mounted, and enter adb shell, "mv /system/build.prop /system/build.prop.bak" exit and then "adb push C:\path\to\build.prop (or in you're in linux /path/to/build.prop) /system/"

4) Reboot, and enjoy!

How do you get one of these things unlocked? I see no option to pay.

And how fast does Alejandrissimo work at unlocking bootloaders?
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] netizenmt:
Thanks, Pax. I've downloaded those now.... just waiting on Alejandrissimo to get on.

You go to the website http://unlock-bootloader.com/ and click on Unlock. There is a form you fill out with your contact info. Alejandrissimo will reply with an email and instructions. Payment is made through PayPal. My understanding is it only takes about 15 minutes or less once you get connected.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] netizenmt:
Well, I am unlocked - yay - but I cannot get fastboot to install a kernel. It's not seeing my device, even though the PC sees it other wise. <sighs> It's making me crazy!
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] paxChristos:
which of the following are you doing?

fastboot flash boot boot.img

or

fastboot -i 0x0fce flash boot boot.img

Do you have the fastboot drivers installed?

Pax

(hint: you wanna use the second one :p )
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] netizenmt:
Starting over from scratch. I flashed the r800x ftf file so I'm starting fresh. Then I flashed the new kernel. When I powered up the phone, I see "SONY" instead of "Sony Ericsson" so I figure that's the new kernel. Then it goes blank and doesn't do anything else and I can't get into recovery. I'll keep working at it.

Oh yeah, almost forgot. Once I load that fastboot driver, when I connect the phone to my PC in normal mode it's prompting me for an Android driver and can't find one that matches.

Gee, this is fun ! Frustrating, but fun !

Yes, I see - it's the back button instead of the volume rocker now. That would explain my Recovery issue. On to the next step !!
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] paxChristos:
(Yes, the new kernel is flashed.) Try spamming the back button/volume rocker when you first feel it vibrate turning on... sometimes my phone can be a little finicky, so I start spamming buttons right away (that should get you into recovery) and from there you can install Cm9
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] netizenmt:
Yeah, it was the Back button instead of the Volume Rocker that was getting me. I'm going to have to replace the build.prop from within CM9 though because once I put the fastboot driver in place, my PC now prompts me for an Android driver and doesn't like the ones that came with the phone.

Woot, CM9 booting! - Let's see how it goes. Back shortly!
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] paxChristos:
Since you're using a pc, do this

1) adb pull /system/build.prop

2) download winmerge (http://winmerge.org/)

3) Open up both the downloaded build.prop and the pulled one in winmerge.

4) Use root explorer (or something similar) to add in the different lines

(Winmerge highlights where two files are different, making it extremely useful for this :p )

Pax
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] netizenmt:
Can't do the adb pull now because of the PC wanting that Android driver
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] paxChristos:
Goto the zergRush thread in my signature and use the drivers in that post, that should get adb working again.

Pax
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] netizenmt:
I don't see a link for drivers in particular. Is it part of the SDK maybe?

EDIT: NVM - I'm blind. I haven't been to bed since 6 PM Friday. :eek:

EDIT #2 - When I try to install that driver, it tells me there is nothing in that location for my hardware.

EDIT #3 - And now it's working just fine... I think my PC is as tired as I am about now, lol

THANKS FOR ALL YOUR HELP, PAX!!!

I have this charger I "stole" from my sister. It is like a crappy $5 micro USB charger. Its not my main charger but I grabbed it in case I ever needed it or something.

Well here's the thing..

My phone will be working completely fine. But when I plug my phone into the charger the screen becomes unresponsive. It doesn't freeze just nothing works. It charges the phone but renders using it while charging impossible. And when I unplug the charger my screen starts to work again.

Is it just a faulty charger? Anyone else experience this?

Rather strange.
[HTC EVO 3D] wloftus:
sounds like you hit the nail on the head.... i have two different chargers i use and one works... sometimes... the otehr all the time .... so i know my port is not wrong so i would keep exploring the route youre thinking of
[HTC EVO 3D] YoMaMa7467:
I have a cheap wall charger for some wireless headphones I occasionally use to charge my 3D and it locks up the screen coincedentally enough on my friends palm pixi, I had him plug it in to see what would happen, it started to make random screen touches everywhere on the screen. You can tell with web OS because it has a ripple around every touch. It's a very interesting thing if you ask me.
[HTC EVO 3D] wloftus:
batteries themselves have a bios system in them so there may be a voltage or amperage difference that may be causing the error to happen
[HTC EVO 3D] eyeisdasteve:
That's so strange. I would why it gets a touch screen error and not some sort of power/battery problem.

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Coffeebeans:

[XPERIA X8 General] baiclark:
i know some of you are using battery calibration from them the market, but all it does is just delete battery_stats.bin from system..But the truth is, the system is still writing the old battery stats if it's erased online...So the only solution is to delete it through recovery...

this is what you need to do:

1.Install Battery Monitor Widget from Market for Monitoring

2.Charge your phone to 100%

3.When done, restart your phone, but go to CWM recovery

4.Go to advanced -> Delete Battery Stats

5.Reboot, you should get battery about 90-100% (depending how much margin has been wrongly calculated)

6.Open Battery Monitor Widget to monitor the voltages. the maximum voltage is 4200mV for Li-Poly battery. Try to reach that value before disconnecting the charger.

7.Before the voltage graph getting dropped, Disconnect the charger immediately. for me it is stopped at max 4190. your mileage may vary.

8.You're done, your battery is calibrated..

thanks to hansip87..

kind regards,

baiclark
[XPERIA X8 General] baiclark:
yes it works...i always do this...and i can see no disadvantage in trying it...aside from losing 1.84mb storage when you install the battery widget monitor...:D
[XPERIA X8 General] Saipro:
I've run into similar posts, and honestly, I don't mean to rain on your parade but two simple tricks are sufficient (based on personal trials, of course):

1. Immediately after flashing a new ROM, before leaving Recovery, wipe battery stats

2. If during the course of using the ROM, your battery seems to act up, return to Recovery and wipe battery stats

The need for the calibration apps (whichever you choose) is the need to determine rate of battery drain/monitor battery performance.

Or sniff out rogue apps.
[XPERIA X8 General] luki2411:
yes it works btw i hawe about 4193-4197mv and batery life its beter

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] adelmundo:
Since December, T-Mobile has been firing up some areas in the USA with the 1900 Mhz band and some unlocked iPhone users on T-Mobile have discovered they are getting faster data speeds (before this they were only getting EDGE speeds) in some of areas. Has anyone with an International GNote able to get on T-Mobile's 1900 Mhz? I know in the SF Bay Area, there are some areas that have the 1900 Mhz band and hopefully I can find a person on T-Mo (place their SIM in my phone) to try this out. Or maybe experiment by buying the $30 prepaid plan from Walmart (unlimited text and FauxG data, up to 5GB at full speed, and 100 minutes voice) to try it out. If it works, that gives us an option in the future to switch to T-Mo and get the higher data speeds.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] drvsbsm:
I was reading about this. How fast is it suppose to be. I'm kinda pissed we cant hack our phones to get better bands. buy I guess 4mb/s down is fine really.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] adelmundo:
Well, one of the Speedtest screenshots from an iPhone user on T-Mo's 1900Mhz showed this:

This would be of interest to me to get on the T-Mo/Walmart $30 prepaid unlimited data and text plan. You get up to 5GB of full speed data, and throttled after that. Since I have a Samsung Epic 4G on Sprint which my company pays for, I really wouldn't use my GNote for voice calls anyways, so 100 voice minutes is no big deal for me, but having 5 GB of unthrottled data and unlimited text for $30/month is WIN for me.
