[Xperia Play Android Development] Leraeniesh:
As a followup to my GBTweaked ROM for locked bootloaders, I thought I should start a thread this.

This ROM is based off the Official Sony ICS Beta, and will feature many great tweaks similar to my other ROM.

And the best news, everything CDMA Related will be working!

I plan to have this up and running within the next week or so for unlocked bootloaders, followed by a released for locked as soon as an R800i ICS .tff is released.

Whats Working:

Almost everything thats not related to the CDMA Radio

Whats Sometimes Working:

Calls

Data

Some users are reporting them working, some are not.

Whats Not Working

Beginner's Guide

1. Backup any apps/data using Titanium Backup or CWM (or if you dont like having your apps, skip this step.)

2. Download the Sony ICS Beta for Xperia Play from here.

3. Extract the contents to the location of your fastboot folder (Default should be "C:\Program Files\Android\android-sdk\platform-tools")

4. Make sure your Xperia Play is turned off, and hold the search button (far right) while plugging your phone into the USB. (Your Notification light should now be blue.

5. Open up command prompt, and cd to the location of your fastboot folder.

6. You should now be able to issue the following commands

fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash system system.img
fastboot flash userdata userdata.img

7. After all flashing is complete, reboot your device, and let it fully boot and configure itself. (If you've done this right, it should boot up the ICS Beta, and you should not be able to receive a signal.)

8. Turn off your device, and go into fastboot mode (as mentioned above.)

9. Download KeiranFTW's ClockworkMod Recovery 5.0.2.8 from here, and boot it up as instructed in his thread.

10. Download ICSTweaked and gapps from the downloads section below. Save them anywhere that you have easy access.

11. Download KeiranFTW's Darkforest Kernel from his thread here, and save it to your fastboot folder.

12. Delete the boot.img you downloaded from the Sony ICS Beta, and rename the kernel you just downloaded to boot.img

13. On your phone, go into "Mounts and Storage > Mount USB Storage". You should now have SDCard access on your computer.

14. Move ICSTweaked and the gapps your downloaded to the root of your SDCard.

15. On your phone, do a full factory reset. Then proceed to flash ICSTweaked.zip, followed by the version of gapps you downloaded.

16. (Make sure your phone is unplugged at this point) After flashing, turn off your phone, and reboot back into fastboot mode.

17. Flash the renamed Darkforest Kernel (should now be boot.img) using the following command.
