Hey guys, i bought the unlock code from cellunlocker.net and got the network/unlock code but the phone is not accepting it... i tried all alternative methods to input the codes but just won't take it... i tried data/cache wipe, tried using different sim cards (tmobile), etc

I rooted/ics (juggernuat) rommed the phone prior to unlocking you think this might be the reason why the phone's not accepting the unlock code?

I have had a good look around the forums but still feel like a small fish in a big pond :(

I would like my play to be lean without all the bloat do I need to flash a new rom / kernel for this ? would like it to run faster , I am into games had a stack of emulators before I rooted and unlocked what benefits can I expect now and what programs / mods should I be doing in general ?

I apologise I know this has probably all been asked before but this is the first time I have messed with a phone and every thread I look at confuses me more .

i found that the stock rom works for me the best in terms of gaming and even normal use. i have .58 rom + Samsung Galaxy SII theme on it and it works smooth for me for now;) i also using Rom Toolbox to uninstall bloatware and block ads in programs. whenever i installed some custom roms, they were great, have awsome functionality, but i always back to a stock one where i had no problems with compatibility in hardware or software...
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] arian009:
Ok, thats what many are asking right now!

If you are a hardcore pro gamer and you only use your play solely for play games using the PS certified pads then don't bother coming here. Cause I can tell you you are gonna have a bad time trying to find a decent hack, Custom ROM and ICS firmware with a stable and optimised Game pad compatibility. True i can say some are better and some are worse. Many ROMs fully suppor emulators. However No Custom ROM has a proper working driver where all those HD games by gamloft can run on.

So now i said all the disadvantages then here are some pf the pros

Rooting, unlocking your phone opens many capabilities. You can flash ICS which is the latets android operating system on the market and not available throguh offical update on Xperia play. You can learn more about how the phone works and everyday you get the chance to try out cool features that the devs around here make or implement. ICS is fast and smooth. Not so nice with the gamepads. But fast! Performance on it is excelllent. Battery life sometime an issue though. Unlocking bootloader and rooting would mean you can flash complex kernals that can allow you to Over Clock your CPU safely to 1.8ghz which is almost double the speed you would get on stock firmware. Some say it's useless when you can't use that speed to play hardcore games but thats not true. The OC speed has given me personally faster video playback and most points and All the normall games on the pla market generally load much faster,

I hope this gave you what you were looking for.

Good luck and happy rooting
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sexperia:
Cheers I am not concerned about the HD games the only marketplace one I play is GTA 3 I am more concerned about emulators , so can you point me in the direction of a good kernel and rom to accomplish this and give me a few pointers of how to change them , i have flash toll but I am kind of lost at this point .

Hello,

Someone have used my google developer account to upload a fake dating app which may contain malware. I contacted google from here and I asked them to cancel my account because it was comprised. They told me that, in order to cancel my old account I have to register a new one, so I registered a new account and they canceled the old one, but they also transferred the fake app from the old account to the new one and I told them not to transfer any apps to my new account. I asked them to remove this app from my account and they told me that they do not support the deletion of apps in Google Play.

Who should I contact to get the app deleted from my account?

I have searched for this problem within the resurrection remix thread but couldn't find an answer, it's also moving too fast for anybody to take notice of my question.

I am having an issue with the lockscreen. I use a pattern unlock, set to immediately lock on sleep.

After booting the phone etc, first lock and then pressing either the home or power button the screen doesn't appear to lock. If I quick press the power button again it locks and stays locked until pattern is entered.

Another issue is when selecting an app from the notification menu the screen locks immediately, when I enter pattern the selected app is there.

Installed 2.2 from 2.1 (which didn't have this issue) with full wipe following full instructions. Entered everything anew short of using titanium backup to install all missing apps without data.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] erikk:
So I got a Samsung 32GB class 10 MicroSD card off eBay for my soon to ship AT&T Samsung Galaxy S3 and I ran some tests on it and got some weird results and I'm wondering if I got an el-fako. It was a bulk packaged one (ie just in an adapter case holder).

I ran h2testw and got results lower than I was expecting (like 15 read/6 write) but that didn't bother me too much. But then I tried to run CrystalDiskMark; I didn't realize that selecting 5 made it run the tests 5 times and it was taking forever, so I left it running when I went to bed. When I woke up it was frozen on Random Write 4KB (QD=32) [1/5] hitting stop did nothing and I couldn't close the program or even end the process in task manager. When I went into the disk in my windows explorer it froze windows explorer and then I couldn't do anything really involving the SD card. I even had to cold power down the system since attempting to shut down within the OS did nothing.

Now today running CrystalDiskMark it ran the first 7 tests fairly quickly on 1 iteration and then it's again stuck on the last test Random Write 4KB (QD=32) [1/1]. Or at least it's been doing that test for like a half hour with no change and as mentioned overnight it didn't get past it so I doubt waiting will do anything for me. A screenshot of the results so far are attached.

Now having said that, I am using the built-in 7in1 card reader in a 4 year old dell Vostro 1700 so it wouldn't surprise me if the reader couldn't handle the top speeds of the card or even if it freezing up was the fault of the reader but I am concerned. Anyone have any thoughts?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AW079:
Ebay fake Samsung SD cards

I had the same issue. 15 R/ 6 W, when class 10 clearly should be constant speeds of 24 Read and 13 Write. Brought from ebay seller moe_122 for £19.99 32GB Class 10 Samsung Micro SD.

I tried this both on my laptop card reader and my PC, using both the SD card adapter and a standalone USB Micro SD card reader.

I then checked out images of some available from Amazon and they are clearly different. Genuine mSD shown on Amazon had writing on back, whereas the one I'd received was blank.

I have today, emailed them requesting a replacement, they instead offered a full refund. the only thing is now I have the S3 but no micro SD card, and I have to post it back to them. They tried to say that I was liable for return postage but I was not having it. In the end I just escalated to ebay resolution center and they begrudging agreed to refunding me the postage.

I just brought one from amazon for £19.99 with free super saver delivery.

Thank me if you found this useful.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] erikk:
Yeah mine has writing on the back and it matches every picture I've seen so far. I know that doesn't really indicate anything re: fake/bad but it's at least not an obvious fake.

This will be my first time ever having an issue with an eBay purchase if it is one and the buyer has 99.99% positive on like 80k deals so I'm sure worst case I get a replacement or a refund. I'm not too worried about it; it's just annoying if in fact it is a bad card/fake. I would have bought from Amazon but at the time I ordered they didn't have any good deals and the eBay price was like $10-$15 cheaper. Of course since then there have been a couple deals at the same or better pricing. If it turns out this one is going back I'll probably try and be patient and pick up a 64gb sandisk if they drop to ~$50-$60 again soon.

Hey Erikk, I am having the same exact problem as you, I am using the card reader in my new laptop and my card is benching much higher as it should be but when I am getting to the same test it gets frozen on Random Write 4KB (QD=32) [1/5] and nothing happens I can't end process, I have to cold power down like you as well. :eek: I know for a fact the microSD card I got is not a fake because I compared with other real samsung 32gb mircosd cards. I got mine at a MicroCenter. I don't know what to do at this point because the card is fantastic as far as speed is concerned it just gets stuck at that part... :confused:

I went to eBay because it was cheap enough that I really didn't care if I got burned on a fake card (plus with all the paypal/ebay protections the burn would only be the annoyance of disputing the charge). I am now fairly certain it's not a bad or fake card; in the S3 antutu reads it with the correct speeds. I think it was just the 5 year old multi-card reader built into my laptop that was having issues.

So either way, I'm happy now with my card.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fasty:
I'm normally very careful, but I made the mistake of buying some "Sandisk" SD cards from Ebay.

They looked absolutely perfect, the welded plastic packaging was flawless, yet sadly they turned out to be fake.

A typical scam is to reprogram and rebrand cheaper, smaller capacity, slower or otherwise low quality cards as pass them off as high quality brands.

Often everything seems OK until the card is part-used, when files start to corrupt. Of course, often by the time this becomes apparent, the seller has scarpered.

If the price looks too good to be true, it often really is too good to be true.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] erikk:
Well the seller I bought from has been an ebay member since 99, has 80k+ ratings and 99.9% positive feedback, so hopefully I won't have that happen. But yes SD cards are definitely one of the riskier items to buy off ebay.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fireboypr:
Best tool to test SD for fakes is called H2testw. I have bought one fake on eBay, and seller also had 99% positive feedback. I guess people buy 32GB card and never get past the 1GB or 2GB by the time they leave the positive feedback. If you pass the real space everything will be corrupted. So you really never know until you try to get data out of the SD to use it. Try that tool and it will full the SD card and then read it back.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fasty:

I'm sure you are exactly right about the typical Ebay scam.

I watched one seller who had vast amounts of sales and great feedback.

They suddenly flooded the listings with vast numbers of "Kingston" brand cards at silly low prices.

Nothing happened for a while, then suddenly the bad feedback started to roll in on that supplier about corrupt data. Of course, all the cards had been sold. Seller vanished without trace.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] erikk:
Yeah my card passed H2testw. It just came back with speeds I thought were too low for what the card should have been capable of. With the tests I've run with the phone itself I think those slow tests were just indicative of the crap reader my ancient laptop has. So I guess I got lucky in the eBay crapshoot.

Have any of you really thought about the current Android root access situation?

Android, an operating system developed by Google, based on the work of Linus Torvalds et.al., distributed under GPL1,2 or 3 which supposedly protects it from being "owned" by any commercial organization and requires the source code for any modifications to be made available to the end user is currently owned by the commercial interests of the various phone carriers both here and in other countries. The very fact that we have to "hack" root access to a phone we purchased, based on a GPL operating system is, from my understanding, illegal. By locking the bootloader refusing to release sources and preventing the end user from altering an OS kernel they themselves don't own they have effectively ignored not only the legal purpose for the various GPL's but the entire spirit of Linux and it's open-source concept. They, meaning the various hardware MFG's, in conjunction/association with the various phone carriers, download free software written by Linus and other volunteer developers, edit it, compile it, add their own flavors to it then blatantly lock access to it by refusing to allow the end user to do the very thing Linux was interned to do, be modified to suit our whims. By not making the entire source code for the kernel and other FREE system utilities freely available aren't they violating the GPL?

Am I the only one who thinks Verizon, Motorola, AT&T, Samsung, HTC even Cricket and the others are just asking for a lawsuit? Isn't the very reason Google chose Linux upon which to base it's various and sundry data devices because it is open source?

The only possible reason they could have for preventing the development community from gaining operating system root access is so they can maintain a hand on your wallet. By writing apps that require you to pay double fees to use the same data connection you've already paid for such as "tether" is more than just dishonest, It's illegal. Not even the government is that dishonest.

I stand corrected, the google source tree for the current kernel source is available from google. I haven't seen MFG specific source but I've been told it does exist and can be downloaded.
