I still get unknown caller but data and calls are working.
[Xperia Play Android Development] krabappel2548:
Yes, that's right :p I don't mind if you make a rom of it ;)

But I think at least you will have to give me some credits :D
[Xperia Play Android Development] jcsnider:
Is Data ACTUALLY working? As in 3G icon and stuff actually updating? If so it maybe time to switch back to ICS...
[Xperia Play Android Development] FPlusPS3:
Well i did the same step and my data only works for Browser?

And when in a call my IN-CALL dial pad is all messed up ? 0 = 1 , 1 = 2 , OK is covering # ?
[Xperia Play Android Development] KeiranFTW:
No, no. That's not the way it works. Its not a case of tell only you the fix so you can put it in your from, so everyone has to use parts of your rom to give you credits.

Its a case of the fix is shared, and the person who made the fix gets credited.

That's how things work in the PLAY section ;)

[Xperia Play Android Development] krabappel2548:
Well I actually made the fix with help from an ICXplay member, it's not based on pax fix or any other fix that was released before ;)

So I think I and ICXplay do earn some credits ;)
[Xperia Play Android Development] KeiranFTW:
Alright kiddo, if you must have credits....

[Xperia Play Android Development] aDigitalPhantom:
That is maybe only partly true as i see it. Also find out if people who use this "fix" can download from the play store when NOT on WIFI, if not then it is not really a fix.

[Xperia Play Android Development] paxChristos:
For whatever reason if there is no 3g symbol, but data is working (e.g. where we're at right now) some apps do work, and some don't. If a combination of chevyowner's fix and krabappel fix works, we might have a stable beta...
[Xperia Play Android Development] agraceful:
I want credits for dressing myself today. :) sorry, had to lighten the mood. Somewhere along the line some devs forget it's not about "credit" it's about the joy they get out of seeing what they can imagine come to a reality.
[Xperia Play Android Development] CrimsonKnight13:
Credit is seeing "thanks" as a currency. Greed for this currency still remains & joy is rarely seen.
[Xperia Play Android Development] PickleFart9:
OK here you go:

[Xperia Play Android Development] netizenmt:
Yes, I can.

And hey, Krabappel deserves to be acknowledged. He's not asking for money for crying out loud. No, it's not a perfect fix, as I still don't get a 3G icon. But I CAN download, and make calls, and I'm not getting any error messages, not even the unknown Caller one after the first time.

So kudos to Krabappel, and to Pickle, and to Chevyowner, and to KeiranFTW, and DooMLoRD, and of course, Sony. And to ALL the devs that have been working so hard to get this working. And all of you, keep working at it. There is always room for improvement! :)

I... I LOVE YOU GUYS !!! <wipes a tear of joy from his eye>

No..... in all seriousness... thank you all for your efforts. Don't any of you for a minute think that there not grateful people who would be at a loss if not for all. R800x users for sure. Thank you
[Xperia Play Android Development] agraceful:
I couldn't agree more. If you don't enjoy doing this kind of stuff you shouldn't be here :) I stopped developing because it wasn't fun anymore, but I still enjoy helping when I can
[Xperia Play Android Development] lightningdude:
So wait, you can download apps from the Play Store without being on Wifi? Are you sure? All the apps you have that use data connection work fully?
[Xperia Play Android Development] netizenmt:
I have done some more testing and, I am sorry to say, no, data is not working for me without being on WiFi after all. It appears one can use it to look up things in the market but not download. And sms does not work. I have always been under the impression that sms would not use wifi, but Handcent SMS does, so I was wrong.

However, I can confirm, it has now been almost 18 hours since I first got calls working, and I continue to be able to make and receive them without the com.android.phone error. Not as certain about the unknown caller message, but that doesn't keep me from using it, so I'm not bothered by it one way or another.

I'll continue to test and update you on my progress. Someone has said if you apply the AOSP theme that it fixes SMS. However, when I put that on my phone, it became very laggy, don't know why. I restored my nandroid and it's all good.

EDIT: 3G data is now working for me. I applied krabappel2548's CDMA fix, edited my build.prop to add paxChristos's fix to the bottom of it. and rebooted. Then I downloaded SetDNS Free and set my dns to Google DNS and BOOM! I had a 3G icon. I was then successful in purchasing and downloading an app from Google Play to my phone, while driving down the highway at 70 mph. I GUARANTEE I wasn't connected to WiFi then! :D
[Xperia Play Android Development] krabappel2548:
That's because I can be a bit lazy :p

I often just take an update script and change the name :D

EDIT: just updated my fix and changed the update script to the same one as for my add-ons :)

Well, you're right, it's for fun :)

[Xperia Play Android Development] EagleDelta1:
Are there still issues with streaming video playback as seen with the CM9 builds?

What about touchpads with EA and Gameloft games (can that even be fixed)?

Either way, thanks for all the work!
[Xperia Play Android Development] jcsnider:
Can you make a new checklist or tutorial of EVERYTHING you did to make it work?

I have not really kept up with these new updates and would be ALOT better off with a guide to go by.
[Xperia Play Android Development] Leraeniesh:
Can someone tell me how SMS/MMS is doing with PickleFart9's patch?
[Xperia Play Android Development] krabappel2548:
Sms works with wifi on and mms doesn't work I think
[Xperia Play Android Development] PickleFart9:
lol please don't call it my "patch", I haven't contributed any code. Honestly I think all that happened is I just caused people to be careful enough on installation that the phone doesn't end up being goofed up. Incidentally this requires more stability testing on my part, but using the KA12v4 CDMA patch on the stock beta rom seems to allow the phone and data apps to work in the same way...

Hello

I've just installed ICS Beta, but I don't see market (Google Play)

I've read and as I understand I need to isntall Gapps from recovery.

THe problem is that I can't access recovery.

I turn off device, push search button and plug usb cable.

power button indicates blue led. In fact I also was able to flash Official ROM.

But the screen is black and nothing happens, no menu appears.

any help? I remember once I already accessed it
[Xperia Play Android Development] Leraeniesh:
You need to hot boot the recovery kernel provided in the first post. As described in Keirans thread.

Sent from R800x
[Xperia Play Android Development] netizenmt:
Get into Fastboot mode on your phone.

at your prompt, type in:

fastboot boot recovery.img <---- assuming you have downloaded this at some point. You can also use any kernel that has cwm in it.
[Xperia Play Android Development] Mpa4Hu:
Okay I've got some information to think, but I still don't know which kernel to use with ICS. Can you recommend me some to choose from or link to list?
[Xperia Play Android Development] Silverstarjigar:
Hey listen, try to flash kernel from doom lord for ics:) advanced stock or his own kernel. Then turn your device on:-) when its switching on, you will experiance a vibrate or the led lights up. Watch for it. If this happens, try pressing back key. If you your unable, again restart your phone, then try for volume down key:)

This will help. Then flash gapps
[Xperia Play Android Development] Leraeniesh:
DooMKernel is the fastest, and most functional kernel for ICS Beta
[Xperia Play Android Development] KeiranFTW:
Whoaa.... you tested them all?

;) just kidding :P
[Xperia Play Android Development] Leraeniesh:
I've been testing all ICS ROMS/Kernels that have been hitting this board.

Like many other have said, my favorite so far is DarkforestICSv4
[Xperia Play Android Development] EagleDelta1:
Any updates on this ROM? I love CM9 right now, but would love to have my hands on a r800x build based off the SE frameworks, so that I can (hopefully) use my PSN account and the Playstation Suite (whenever it comes out)
[Xperia Play Android Development] ozzmanj1:
Any updates on this ROM?
[Xperia Play Android Development] darkharbinger81:
sorry to bump an old thread but here's a way I tried I was able to get stable phone calls and data on ics beta

1) flash the base band only from 2.3.4 Ftf

2) install a stock based ics ROM there's plenty of them out there

3) flash the Atari kerian cm9 patch

4) boot the phone set up you aons, use wifi to go

to the market and download 3g reconnect install it and set it to "start monitoring"

5) dial *228 activate phone reboot

6) after reboot make sure the app us still set to start monitoring let it sit for 20 minutes you should have the 3g icon

Calls and text should be stable now let nee know if this works or not

:thumbup:
[Xperia Play Android Development] Jurellz:
does this work on gsm roms?

Has this method been tried by any one else but us lol?
[Xperia Play Android Development] Leraeniesh:
I've tried your method, sadly without any luck.

I'd recommend unlocking the boot loader through Sony's site an installing an ICS or JB ROM.
[Xperia Play Android Development] darkharbinger81:
I'm already unlocked
[Xperia Play Android Development] abdel12345:
Did you boot once before flashing the atarii keirran cm9 patch because I tested it and it worked but you had to boot once before flashing it for it to work

yo, quick question is this rom working i mean can you call and send mms, sms ?

i've read the whole thread but from what i understand getting this thing to work is all a matter of luck
[Xperia Play Android Development] darkharbinger81:
SMS, MMS yes call never worked properly, I've tried numerous times to make them stable stick with cm 9.1, for ics
[Xperia Play Android Development] ultimatelegend1:
Too bad i was hoping this rom would work oh well:( still , thank you for trying to fix the issues

By the way do u know the gamepad behave weirdly on cm9 while playing with ppsspp ?
[Xperia Play Android Development] darkharbinger81:
I honestly don't know /remember I haven't had a play in almost 6 months come the first if the year I am buying 2 CDMA xperia plays one for my son to play games so that will be locked and rooted, and mine which will be unlocked and used for development again so I can attempt to continue working and hopefully I can fix the Sony ICS for us CDMA users I have a lot of things I have been wanting to try and all of my Roms need updates so my apologies for all CDMA development becoming to an almost halt I can try to port Roms but with the device to test I can't do anything
[Xperia Play Android Development] MinionOfEckerd:
Flashed the official release plus your fix last night. It looks absolutely glorious, just going to take some time to get everything back to working. WiFi is better, Browser works and got gapps running.

Eagerly awaiting any fixes you might find for data. More than willing to try any suggestions. Thanks!!
[Xperia Play Android Development] ozzmanj1:
I am not able to make any calls. I constantly saying .com.phone.android has failed whenever I attempt to make a call, or even activate the phone.... and then it pops up every 5 seconds and the only way to get rid of it is to reboot the phone..
[Xperia Play Android Development] Leraeniesh:
Updated first post with links to Gaaps, Root fix, Browser fix, Wifi fix, CDMA Fix, and bootable ClockworkMod recovery
[Xperia Play Android Development] ozzmanj1:
K, I'll get those files, flash and report back. Thanks
[Xperia Play Android Development] netizenmt:
Same for me at first. Now with stranger results - I forced activation by dialing *22899. The phone began activation but never rebooted. I manually rebooted. I then placed a call to my desk phone. I could talk and be heard on either end, but it echoed continuously, getting louder until it caused feedback. When I hung up, I was unable to dial again until I rebooted.

I can't remember for sure but I believe it was still doing the error message the whole time, even after activation.
[Xperia Play Android Development] crono141:
Thanks for this thread. I'll watch closely.
[Xperia Play Android Development] ozzmanj1:
I flashed the files and I still do not have root or the ability to make calls.... wifi works, BT I have not tried yet, browser works. So far the only things that have issues are:

No calling

GL games stutter and have issues, but thats probably due to GLs crappy bug filled games anyway, and I am aware that some software will have to modified for ICS....

Right now I think for me the main issue would be the Calling as I need to be able to make calls. I am at work so I can use the phones here but by sunday night , 2.5 for me away, if the call issue is not fixed I will have to flash back to my previous ROM with doomkernel..... but I am really hoping to have calls working by then... as I really love the ROM other then the bugs, and YES I know its a BETA...... :)
[Xperia Play Android Development] netizenmt:
I posted this in Q&A, but I think this might be a better place. The R800x when stock from Verizon (US version), has FW version 3.0.1.E.0.88. If I flash a stock UK ROM, it shows as 3.0.1.A.0.145. Both allow CDMA to work as well as calls.

The Sony Beta site states you must be running at least FW version 4.0.2.A.0.42, which would seem to mean the R800x cannot run ICS. However, there are modified versions of CM9 that work including data and calls. And the patches here to allow the the Sony ICS Beta, which flashes just fine, to have CDMA data, wifi and hopefully, calls.

How is this possible? What am I not understanding here? I'm trying to figure it out but right now, I am :confused::confused::confused:

Thanks for whatever insight you can give me, and I'm sorry if this is too off-topic.
[Xperia Play Android Development] savage24x:
PM Chevyowner, he would know.
[Xperia Play Android Development] netizenmt:
Good idea! I should have thought of that! Guess that's what happens when you stay up late after working all night. :o
[Xperia Play Android Development] jcsnider:
It would probably take him less than 20 minutes to get data/calls/etc working with this beta simply because of his work with FXP. Let us know what he tells you I cannot wait to use this!
[Xperia Play Android Development] CrimsonKnight13:
paxChristos is looking into the data issue as well.
[Xperia Play Android Development] netizenmt:
Yeah, I PM'd them both! :D
[Xperia Play Android Development] netizenmt:

[Xperia Play Android Development] paxChristos:
Also, you know the /system/etc/apns-conf.xml is screwy, correct? (it might help if you grab one off .88)

Pax
[Xperia Play Android Development] agraceful:
That's the easy one :P

This should work beautifully
[Xperia Play Android Development] paxChristos:
Also, DoomLord's Advanced Stock kernel work (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=24235908#post24235908)
[Xperia Play Android Development] jcsnider:
Alright speaking in terms of a n00b...

Pax was able to get data with the cdma mod and some edits to the build.prop and APN settings should fix the MMS and such. So all that is needed is the phone to stop crashing and a 3g icon and it would be somewhat stable??? Or am I missing alot of underlying issues?
[Xperia Play Android Development] paxChristos:
In short, yes.

My guess is that the SemcPhone.apk does not like cdma only (for whatever reason) and that's why it's crashing (i.e. it doesn't like the default network)

Note: I have not tested it out for more than just those bugs, right now I'm running Cm9 and this is but a side project :P

Pax
[Xperia Play Android Development] ozzmanj1:
Two things I would love to see first.... not demanding just my thoughts.

1: Calls working

2: Root..

The rest will happen when it happens
[Xperia Play Android Development] paxChristos:
DoomLord's kernel works... (Both advanced stock & OC)

Pax
[Xperia Play Android Development] ozzmanj1:
Wait...so I can used my old DooMkernel for CDMA or the Advanced Stock?
[Xperia Play Android Development] lightningdude:
DooMLorD actually just released a new kernel, in addition to the Advanced Stock. Keep your eyes open, man! New stuff just dropped, it's like a wildfire here!
[Xperia Play Android Development] ozzmanj1:
Wildfire it is.... damn........ Cant keep up with it when I am at work..... lunch in an hour.... forget food Ill be downloading DooMKernel... nice... thanks for the tip
[Xperia Play Android Development] lightningdude:
Btw, jgregoryj1, if you go to this post, you can get a fix that makes calls work. I made a test call to my voicemail, and everything went through. I haven't tried any normal calls, though. All I'm waiting for is 3G data to work, and we'll be golden!
[Xperia Play Android Development] ozzmanj1:
I applied the CDMA patch last night and when I go to make a call the com.android.phone force closes and keeps popping up a message until I reboot to clear it out...

Unless its the same post but an updated CDMA patch...

Also is there root with this ROM now? I have two Superuser flashable files. RootXperia and Superuser flash file... (forgot how its titled) and both flash but when I go to use titanium or Root explorer it gets denied..... am I missing something or has it just not been rooted yet? Probably not rooted yet
[Xperia Play Android Development] paxChristos:
Calls do not work to my knowledge, root is achieved either through the flashable su fix or through dooms/keiran's kernels.
[Xperia Play Android Development] ozzmanj1:
Hmm....k. I have 2 different SU or Root files that I have flashed each on a fresh install of this ICS Beta for R800x and neither are working... I go to use Root Explorer or Titanium and root access is denied on both. Am I doing something wrong? The file I am lfashing mostly is the SuperUser 3.0.7 or something to that effect....
[Xperia Play Android Development] lightningdude:
I'm on a phone call right now on this particular rom, having been the one making the call. I got a FC, but the app never closed. I hit the call button again, and it went through. I never got a sound indicating that their phone was ringing, which could be because he picked it up so fast, but I'm not sure. Either way, I made a call.
[Xperia Play Android Development] ozzmanj1:
Wow... I am dumb. As the deny/allow button are reversed in ICS, dont know why, I was pressing Deny instead of allow for the apps that require root acces.....dont laugh.... I know...dumb
[Xperia Play Android Development] jcsnider:
Glad to hear root is working! I am ready to switch the second data is confirmed to be working well!
[Xperia Play Android Development] ozzmanj1:
For me its so much the dat as I am constantly around Wifi, its the calling... thats not working ... couple people say they can make calls but it keep saying that com.android.phone has closed but it calls.. me on the other hand makes o calls and keeps showing the mesage over and over until I reboot..... so far as I am concerned calls are not working... perhaps when calls are working that will resolve the data issue to... have to wait and see what the XDA Geniuses can crank out....
[Xperia Play Android Development] netizenmt:
I would laugh at you... but I did the same thing! ::p
[Xperia Play Android Development] jcsnider:

[Xperia Play Android Development] ozzmanj1:
Same here..... I dont have the file so I cannot test it but would if someone posted it...
[Xperia Play Android Development] paxChristos:
I don't think so, I tried that with MIUI, and it didn't fix anything (just made baseband unknown)
[Xperia Play Android Development] netizenmt:
Well, I have interesting results. I ignored the error message and went through the process of Activation. I am now able to place calls from my phone. I still get the error message about com.android.phone, but I can talk and be heard. However, I still can't receive calls. It rings, but the com.android.phone error pops up over and over and I can't answer the call. I don't find an option to turn on Auto-Answer either.
