Hah sorry for the trouble, just found out it was Power and Vol Down, reflashed and then had to hold it for a few seconds for it to work
[Xperia Play Android Development] PickleFart9:
Am currently doing testing on your new v5 and your experimental v6 CDMA patches. Right now looks like the v5 causes problems where the initial setup (language selection) disappears and you never get to the start screen (just get a black screen). I have flashed v6 on top of v5 and get the same result... Right now I'm going back to test v6 from the beginning.

None of these patches are supposed to be kernel-specific, right? I'm currently on the stock kernel if that makes any difference, just because I start from scratch a lot (flashing and booting fully into the sony stock rom).

Other testing bits: I've noticed this before but it keeps reappearing on subsequent installs. When I have your phone plugged into the computer I get a message that USB Connectivity has stopped. I haven't noticed any functional affects of that, though, everything still works.

Also email app works for me...only really tried connecting to Exchange ActiveSync accounts though...

Update: Not so sure it's specifically v5 and v6 causing the problem now because flashing the v4 on top of them still causes the same thing....more testing...

Update: Yep, v6 works fine but it doesn't enable anything new as far as I can see.
[Xperia Play Android Development] likuid:
Testing from clean install with direct v6 CDMA fix and DooM v1...

Phone - seems to be working after several reboots: only the one error now

Data - able to browse Youtube app and Browser but cannot download apps from market so data is working...sort of?

SMS - no luck on this yet...unable to send getting service not available error.

I'll keep poking around but looks like calls and data are stable for now!

Update - so I tried to send a text with the message pending in the queue and restarted while the app was crashing, and after the reboot the text send and I started receiving more texts....However!! Now the phone stopped working as i'm getting the constant android.phone crash error. -- Tried clearing Dalvik and re-applying CDMA patch v6 and still have no luck w/ phone now.

Fun note: After I restarted w/ the pending SMS and got the ability to send texts again and lost phone functionality, I also lost data...I can no longer browse the Play store or use Youtube.
[Xperia Play Android Development] PickleFart9:
'

As far as data, browsing and etc has been working for a bit now. We're trying to get a data connection for apps that specifically look for 3g network connectivity...things like downloading from the market and apps like the Set DNS app, the Google Voice app, and apparently the Bank of America app. You'd probably know it if you see it by that 3g icon showing up.

That said, it looks like everything (exception maybe MMS and SMS?) works if you're connected to Wifi, same as since patch v4.
[Xperia Play Android Development] likuid:
Ahh thanks...man you travel for one day and you miss so much!

Found it interesting though that the phone stopped working after SMS started working...that explains what happened the other night when I was testing with v4 so sounds like it wasnt the Gmail sync or locations services that broke the phone services...just SMS
[Xperia Play Android Development] netizenmt:
These were EXACTLY my results, also.

Interesting detail with v6 - 3G is initially enabled. However, as soon as I made a call, 3G disappeared for good until the next reboot. Eventually, neither worked, and even wiping, reinstalling, starting over from scratch, I couldn't get it to work right any more.

<sighs> I should never have wiped my phone to test other configs!
[Xperia Play Android Development] BrownEye02:
After reading all the new posts this morning I thought I would do some tinkering. I was able to figure something cool out with my phone. Test it on yours to see if you get the same reaction.

Ok on a fresh restart I have the "hidden" data where 3g is not displayed but I have it. I can make calls but cant text.

After turning on airplane mode and waiting 10s then turning it off. 3g was displayed on my signal and all the apps including DNS that require the visible 3g worked. I was still unable to text. I kept getting the message will send when able to.

I tuned on wifi. Waited for it to connect and turned it off and the error message went away. I was back to the "hidden" 3g but the message was sent. Now Im just waiting on the reply. Will post when I get one.

---------- Post added at 12:21 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:41 AM ----------

Haha ok so I was able to recive the text by turning data off then turning on airplane mode. I then turned airplane mode off waited a bit then turned data back on. I can now recive texts, and have "hidden" data. Making a phone call breaks this. But doing the no data airplane trick fixes this.

Edit: For this to work you have to mess around with airplane mode till you get the no signal displayed even though airplane mode is off. Data and phone calls still work in this mode but texts do not. Once you have achieved this you cant start my trick.

Tell me if this works for anyone else. Its a pain but kind of funny.

Edit: After achieving no data mode and starting the airplane trick. In the first part where you turn data off then turn airplane mode on. Before you turn the airplane mode on the no signal will go away but this is fine. Just continue on with the airplane trick.
[Xperia Play Android Development] biggyhead:
ima test this out im still on his rom but text doesn't work thats all but the good thing is this lol and hopefully this helps when i turn off my phone then turn it back on it can recieve text and it also sends the one thats stays in my apk text. Don't know if that helps but i'll keep reflashing til i get this thing working, for me cdma user advanced kernal doom works like a charm with fixes just text doesn't work with stock wifi modules, 3g even works but the icon is just missing i can browse just fine but i havne't tried downloading will update

---------- Post added at 08:42 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:50 PM ----------

update: okay so the new cmv5 works flawlessly if you follow but wifi module doesnt work now gona test it out some more

UPDATE: STEP IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION SON! method works flawlessly text works but i can only send then once i send one the first time the message pops up saying i can't text >.> but still i texted first time! hahahah

GSM user here - Are the phone capabilities working fine - SMS, calling, 3G.

Are the smartphone capabilities working fine - Data, Wi-Fi, stability
[Xperia Play Android Development] NeWCuLTKiNG:
perfectly
[Xperia Play Android Development] FPlusPS3:
Lucky GSM people... >:(
[Xperia Play Android Development] button04:
GSM user too, really like this ROM, been running it since Friday afternoon, and I like it a lot, added the on screen buttons patch to get the full ics look, only thing I'm having trouble with atm is the led notifications not working properly, but that's nothing to worry about.
[Xperia Play Android Development] CTU_Loscombe:
Battery mod has messed up my clock in the notification bar

Now reads: %-|:%4%^p

Any chance of an uninstall zip or a fix?
[Xperia Play Android Development] xRegrets:
The battery mod is from the older version, which has a different systemui.apk. Try flashing KA12 SystemUI widgets which will replace the systemUi to the one in KA12.
[Xperia Play Android Development] CTU_Loscombe:
Just have and its worked :)

Realised after my post haha :-P

Edit: Only gripe with this Rom (its a tiny one mind) is no drag and drop uninstall. I loved that on the CM9 ICS Rom. Made removing apps a hell if a lot easier
[Xperia Play Android Development] netizenmt:
Well, I really liked this ROM a lot, but the ongoing issues with CDMA data has finally made me jump ship back to CM9. Until that is fully resolved so that we don't have to fight it to get it to work, I just can't see the point in using any of the Sony Beta ICS mods.
[Xperia Play Android Development] AwaisKhan:
Face unlock says 'faceunlock couldnt start' any ideas?????
[Xperia Play Android Development] AwaisKhan:
& its laggy as hell, at most i have about 145mb ram free
[Xperia Play Android Development] danlivesey:
I have no lag what so ever. It runs smooth on mine. I've never got facelock to work on any Rom. So I just gave up,for some it works and for some it didn't. I use this as my daily driver
[Xperia Play Android Development] CTU_Loscombe:
Laggy? Smooth as silk here :)

Don't know what's making yours lag. Possibly a HUGE app in your internal storage.

Try running RAM (not ROM...God not ROM) Manager from the Play Store. That solved all the lag I had on stock Gingerbread. For all the options to work you need to buy it or download it somewhere else. Not posting links for obvious reasons.

TL;DR

Install RAM Manager.

[Xperia Play Android Development] BrownEye02:
Im in the same boat. I love how smooth this rom is but I need to be able to receive all types of text, phone calls, and emails. Once I hear that no one has an issue with this anymore Ill be back for sure.
[Xperia Play Android Development] cj360:
Comming from chevyowner's cdma fix for cm9 I have working data and wifi! :D

Here's what I did:

Fastboot flashed Doomlord's kernel, then hot booted into Binary's recovery with fastboot. Then wiped data cache/delvik installed the rom via .zip. Errors about sim card came up blah blah blah rebooted into recovery with doom's kernel installed v5 cdma fix. Rebooted saw the signal bars in the notification area, then went back to recovery to install doom's wifi moduels.

I still get constant "usb connectivity has stoped working" but it looks fine in explorer on my pc. (By explorer I mean the folders on windows in case someone doesn't know).
[Xperia Play Android Development] mehdi.moha:
hi all

i want to use this rom again , is there any solution to run pscperia games on it ?

the link on first page ( psxperia odd-on post .. )) is not solving this isue

thanks
[Xperia Play Android Development] ttiimm:
psxperia wont work on ics, i dont even think playstation pocket games downloaded legit from the store will work
[Xperia Play Android Development] mehdi.moha:
oh my god :eek:

time to say goodby ps1 games ?!?
[Xperia Play Android Development] Abaddon:
Not yet. ICS is still in beta in our Xplay so everything will work eventually.
[Xperia Play Android Development] Logseman:
And actually, FPSE works with the pads in ICS, so PSXperia may be unnecessary in the future.
[Xperia Play Android Development] mehdi.moha:
OH mR.THME :)

nice to see you here , but on my opinion , psxperia is really better , i have FPSE latest version , that is good , but allways have little bug , on latest version , there is problem on repositioning on-screen buttons ! beside , sometimes it getting freeze.

but totally FPSE is #2 , the #1 is PSXPERIA :D
[Xperia Play Android Development] krabappel2548:
KA13 coming up :) this evening or tomorrow around 1pm :D
[Xperia Play Android Development] xRegrets:
Any change log?
[Xperia Play Android Development] cyrusalmighty:
If some people are saying the Rom is laggy, isn't ICS supposed to allow you to long press home button to get list of running apps & to swipe to close(or is that the same as "recent"feature in GB)? I ask this, because I have mine set for 2 background processes at a time in developers options(in settings area), but when I long press home & see too many apps open.

Sent from my ICS KA twizz-elve
[Xperia Play Android Development] paxChristos:
Process are different than apps, and moreover processes can be cached (stored for later) rather than running and eating up ram. Check menu -> manage apps -> running & it'll show you running processes, hit cached processes to see what's all sitting in the background (as apps)

Pax
[Xperia Play Android Development] krabappel2548:
Changelog is coming later today ;) I'm really busy right now...
[Xperia Play Android Development] xRegrets:
Okay :D I'll wait.
[Xperia Play Android Development] cj360:
^ sweet. Despite wifi working fine data only works for SMS and calls. I opened the market and it doesn't load while data is on only wifi.

Edit- How do I hang up phone calls? They go through okay but I only see the dial pad and an error msg. Call screen never comes up.
[Xperia Play Android Development] cyrusalmighty:
It sounds like you do not have Data working, because I don't think you use data for sms and calls...only mms. Do you have any symbol for data in status bar( i.e. 3g or H or E)? I read some other people with r800x didn't have symbols but still had data working. You may have to reconfigure your APN?

Sent from my ICS KA twizz-elve
[Xperia Play Android Development] cj360:
Yes I should probably reconfigure it because sometimes I have the 3g symbol then it just goes away. My bars are faded when the 3g isn't there but when it is they're blue like they should be. But I only get errors when calling someone.

How do I go about reconfigureing my apn? They've said it somewheres in here but I forgot.
[Xperia Play Android Development] Zerobarat1:
Wifi seems to working a lot better on doomkernel plus this rom than vanilla ginger + doomkernel
[Xperia Play Android Development] ShahinTehShiz:
Any chance you could PM me or post after a while what the battery is like with DooMKernel?

Thanks!
[Xperia Play Android Development] Zerobarat1:
At first I was pretty impressed, but now I'm not very sure. Either way I'm still very in to testing different governors and schedulers.

It's interesting to say that the device works very admirably even downclocked for a max of 806 mhz.
[Xperia Play Android Development] danlivesey:
The battery life is good just make sure wifi is turned off when your not using your phone. I use this Rom every day and love it.
[Xperia Play Android Development] Drakenfall:
Hello, i don´t know if someone else asked, but i can´t record videos (with this rom and the Darkforest)and then zip for reboot option does nothing.

Any solution?

I really love this rom, and it´s officialy my daily rom, keep the excelent work.

Best regards
[Xperia Play Android Development] danlivesey:
Change your resolution to 480 or use advanced stock kernel. 720 won't work with full custom kernels yet.

I don't think any reboot zip works with ics yet.
[Xperia Play Android Development] Drakenfall:
Thank you for your fast response.

It worked.

About the reboot, if there is any zip that works, how do we get it?

Best regards
[Xperia Play Android Development] danlivesey:
No don't think there is a mod yet for reboot on ics unless some one corrects me on that. I use a widget called reboot control, it gives you 3 options reboot,power of or lock screen.
[Xperia Play Android Development] Drakenfall:
Sorry, i made the question wrong, but if it isn´t why are several screenshots of ICS (this one included) with the reboot option.

I´m sorry if i´m beeing anoying.

Best regards.
[Xperia Play Android Development] danlivesey:
Good point, Il let somebody else answer that.
[Xperia Play Android Development] Drakenfall:
I will try to use the framework-res from Neo since that has the reboot option, if it works i let you know and someone could make the flash option from that.

:)
[Xperia Play Android Development] krabappel2548:
Don't try that, it's a different framework, your phone won't boot with Neo framework-res ;)

And reboot option is framework-res.apk + android.policy.jar + services.jar :D
[Xperia Play Android Development] RozenTensai:
Confirming this ROM is unusable as-is

Error is: FAILED (remote: Download size too large)

As stated by Motawa88, the system.img should be less than 218MB
[Xperia Play Android Development] Leraeniesh:
Can someone make an update.zip?

So at least then we can flash the ROM through KeiranFTW's recovery.
[Xperia Play Android Development] imkentoy:
I Got the same error.. :(:(
[Xperia Play Android Development] kakatoori:
cant we use.... [PLAY-GSM-CDMA][CM9] Darkforest Kernel ICS [v4][WIP][1.6GHz OC]???
[Xperia Play Android Development] sharpz811:
how did i kno i was gonna waste my time:( owell surely there will be an update.zip soon thanks though
[Xperia Play Android Development] Magnumutz:
That is a CM9 kernel, it won't work.

I've tried the kernel from the Unofficial beta thread.

It's got some weird bugs until you disable the animations, but everything else is just fine!
[Xperia Play Android Development] FPlusPS3:
Has anyone tried this with the CDMA fix to see if it works?
[Xperia Play Android Development] RozenTensai:
I tried to make an update.zip, it flashed OK but didn't boot :(

I'll try tomorrow again if nobody (or the creator of the ROM) creates it before :p (here is 23:48 and need to wake up very early)
[Xperia Play Android Development] krabappel2548:
Don't waste your time I already had an update zip ready ;) but is there a kernel you guys can use to flash it?

I'll start uploading it in a minute ;)
[Xperia Play Android Development] danieljamie:
We could fastboot into a CWM recovery.. then flash the update.zip?
[Xperia Play Android Development] krabappel2548:
I know some method that will work yes :)

And you mean hotboot a kernel with CWM I hope? ;)

I'm uploading the update.zip now, I will update installation instructions on first post and put the new links on first post asap :)
[Xperia Play Android Development] danieljamie:
Yeah that's what I meant..

So you would...

Flash Sony Beta ICS Kernel

Hotboot a kernel with CWM

Flash update.zip ??

Does it matter which ROM you currently have?
[Xperia Play Android Development] krabappel2548:
Sony recommended to flash the ICS rom only if you are on .62 firmware with .64 baseband, but in Neo and Arc forum there are users with other basebands and a working rom (with minor problems mostly)

The problem with other baseband's are mostly, data & radio not working, this is because the older baseband don't have the newest modules necessary for this ICS beta rom ;)

Download links are added, I just need to add the attachment for hotboot ;)

But you guys can start downloading the rom already :D

EDIT: Everything is uploaded, and added in first post :)

Please let me know if the rom is workin or not, and what is working and what isn't working and so on ;)

Just try to give me as much info as possible ;)
[Xperia Play Android Development] danieljamie:
Okay well I'm on -64 baseband, R800i in the UK on Orange..

Currently on the ICX 1.0 beta ROM but I don't like it too much.. apps force closing etc..

So after work today, I will flash the .62 firmware, then install this ROM and give you an update.

Thanks a lot!
[Xperia Play Android Development] krabappel2548:
You don't need to go to .62 firmware if you are on ICX beta rom ;)
[Xperia Play Android Development] danieljamie:
Awesome. Well I'm on: Official Sony Xperia ICS Beta ROM port 1.0

So I can just download and flash.. that is cool
[Xperia Play Android Development] mulllen666:
will try tonight and report back
[Xperia Play Android Development] krabappel2548:
Download flash and then flash ICS beta kernel ;)

Ok, I'll look forward for test results :)

Seems I can finally go and fix some minor issues on Arc and Ray ;)

Guys, now I'm getting even more random reboots, like every hour or so, becoming a problem now :( It was going perfect but its only when I put the phone down that it decides to reboot, thus draining battery even more!
[Xperia Play Android Development] cyrusalmighty:
I get some reboots every now and then but I wouldn't say every hour. I just have the lag which is pretty much like a freeze to the whole phone. I find that long pressing home to swipe/close some open apps speeds things up(maybe a placebo effect)& going into settings>apps>running to close apps(this works).
