Thanks for that (also thanked in your original post)! I've had the same problem with CM9.

Note that I think:

*22890 = Verizon Programming

*22891 = Preferred Roaming List (PRL) Update

At least, that's what the nice, recorded lady said when I used it just now.

Radio Baseband version mismatch

Flashed the new radio (both of them from the OP). But, under settings - Software Info - More - Baseband/Kernel/Etc, mine is always listed as;

20.32W.30.0813U_1.09.01.0312

According to the OP, it should be;

20.32W.30.0813P_1.09.01.0312

Any ideas Why I keep getting a "U" instead of "P"?

I am rooted, with S-off running Nitsuj's vanilla rom.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] CondemnedSoul:
Should be "U" .... sorry about that:o

NOOB question.......

Can this radio do anything that may mess up my phone.

Like if I flash it could it make my current ROM unstable, or cause me to miss calls or texts?

I'm running condemned 6/19 cm kang. I just wanna make sure everything will work fine.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Rushead:
ANY flash can, theoretically, brick your phone. Usually the radio flash has no effect on the rom. Just check md5 sums to be safe.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] joefrog1996:
I flashed at 65% and when it was done and my phone rebooted it said I had 85%. Should I wipe my battery stats?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] flamepanther:
Sweet! Free extra battery charge! :D
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] joefrog1996:
It gets better, on my old radio (the one that came with my phone when i bought it in August) I'd be 20% at the end of the day with regular use. Now it is at 60% at the end of the day!!!!

What's the general consensus with this radio? Worth flashing?

Yes, you get better battery. And in some cases better connection.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Kinz1980:
I had good reception. However my data was slower I ran three test on 1111 and it was much faster download and upload speeds. I live in southern Michigan near Indiana. So my phone is always bouncing all over. (when I did the test I sat the phone in the same spot) I am keeping it on my sd to try later or if I am traveling. :p

I've seen many different approaches to turning the rear cover into a matte finish, and it inspired me to try my own. As well as getting tired of the constant wiping of the fingerprints...

I realized my work has a Sandblaster, which I used to take the glossy finish off the cover. I prefer this method to others because there are no stickers to peel off, and no visible swirl marks which I've seen from the Sand Paper method.

I realize not everyone has access to a Sandblaster, so this method will not work for everybody.

I will also be modifying the bottom piece to more closely match the top, as soon as I figure out how to remove it. ;)

Below are the pictures for your enjoyment :p

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] thoroar:
No Problem! Let me know if you need any help.

BTW, I removed the circle lens cover before sandblasting the back cover. It breaks the little plastic welds when you push on it with your thumb. It can be glued back on, or just popped back into place, there is no difference once the back cover is on.

Lewa OS for Sensation 4G​

​

Hey guys, so recently I've been looking for resources and stuff and I found this rom called LeWa Os. It's similar to MIUI in terms of themes, customization, initial theme when you first flash it, but it's based on CM7 so it has CM features. I took the time to port it to our beloved Sensation and will do my best to fix out the remaining bugs... It's running on Android 2.3 and has awesome eyecandy + fluid performance ...

It's based on the only CM7 build that I can find for the sensation:

update-cm-7.1.0-SelfKANG1-Sensation-signed

This list shows a little of it's awesomeness, there are too many features to list...

If you press on Statusbur, softkeys will appear

Swipe up to open apps drawer

Miui like toggles in statusbar

*Oh yea* There is a task killer button in the statusbar

*Miui Like* SO many themes to customize

Included power manager app

Stylish slider to accept/reject calls

Smooth ROM!

Did I mention the charging animation!

Datamanager included in statusbar

ICS Transitions

Too many!

Bugs:

IDK, I didn't test this, so if any brave soul could test it I would appreciate that!

[HTC Sensation] Fr3sh2De4th:
Looks very interesting! I'm gonna do a little research on the OS first :)
[HTC Sensation] ptlsajan:
if you have fixed some video call problems and audio call when on headphone...........then i will definately use this rom.............(notice that the bugs i mentioned are from cm7)
[HTC Sensation] Alaq:
No I haven't worked on any of the bugs yet... But this is based on alpha 10 so I think they might be fixed: Taken from the CM forums:

I'll do my best to fix those...
[HTC Sensation] throcker:
this is based on cm7, so I should install the GB firmware? 3.12...

what about language....are there chinese parts?

and...is this just for 4g sensations? I have an eur version...
[HTC Sensation] blackchad:
Can't wait to get home and flash this. 82mb? Really?
[HTC Sensation] Dano79:
Looks cool to bad you have to down grade firmware. Get this going on cm9 and I'll try it the reason I have my phone rooted is because I wanna use the newest stuff not outdated roms that are dead.
[HTC Sensation] Pard0ned:
This roms just been released. However the base is old.
[HTC Sensation] Dano79:
I know and the cm7 thread is dead so this roms base will never be updated.
[HTC Sensation] Alaq:
Oh okai, I'll see if I can get it working on CM9, give me some time though :P

EDIT: And hey I'm still working on it, don't start giving low ratings yet!
[HTC Sensation] aimcr7:
Keep up your great work mate :)
[HTC Sensation] tin2404:
This ROM is very pleasent surprise...stick with CM7 not with CM9 because there are a lot of various cm9 editions of all flavoirs...what is needed is cm7 base ROMs.

I will give a try...for now, on Hyperdroid cm7...in the future, on Lewa certainly.
[HTC Sensation] g1user101:
What is this roms bugs?
[HTC Sensation] galaxys:
Good to have another Sensation chef in the kitchen!
[HTC Sensation] Alaq:
Well after putting my mind to it, I finished my attempt at porting a CM7 rom to CM9 and now I'm scared to try it :/ (I'm a wimpy chef, I know :P)

So I think I'll just keep it at CM7 since no one has anymore of those roms anymore and it seems like gingerbread is more stable...

So for those who have ICS now, downgrade:

Alright so all of us have ICS, recovery, and s-off, so all we have to do is flash the first firmware in this post (1.17) and flash this ROM...

So on to the bugs. From my first port for the Atrix I had the following:

1. PC didn't detect phone on USB, only can charge from wall...

2. Boot animation, lock screen, and music player aren't scaled...

3. SD manager fcs... (It's a lame version of miui file manager)

1. It shouldn't do that on this ROM, but if it does I'll look into it and see if my friend can help me fix it like he helped on the Atrix...

2. So I'll work on scaling the the boot ani, and lock screen, and I'll just replace the music plaer...

3. Just remove it and replace with the actual miui file manager...

Everyone wondering that website is a good source it has listed a huge amount of firmware before release.

So mabye they pushed it out then canceled it ? Or they actually are bringing a ics update but don't put your hops up.

this is something they leaked before - http://www.xperiablog.net/2011/12/0...-neo-3-0-1-b-0-285-certified-for-xperia-play/

what !!!

please don't kidding me again !

PTCRB is the one that certified all the firmware. If it is passed by PTCRB, then it is ready for release. Correct me if i'm wrong though :p
[Xperia Play General] poo-tang:
You are correct. This is an ICS version (4.1.#) so looks good for play. Has anyone contacted Sony to find out more yet? ??
[Xperia Play General] anmiman:
i've tried to contact Sony but just cant connect to their chat support..:confused:

maybe someone else can try and report here..:p
[Xperia Play General] poo-tang:
When you see Fw appear on that site it's normally around 2 weeks till it gets rolled out. But we need to find out if it is real deal. Doubt this is a typo or mistake so looking good so far, will get on to Sony see if we can dig up some more info

[Xperia Play General] Sythedragon:
Don't think people should get too optimistic.
[Xperia Play General] poo-tang:
+1 wait till we find out more. But must say out of these 1000's threads in the general forum at the mo this is the most credible. Certification is a big step and to see this on there (if correct) is a good sign. Sony don't cert FW unless its going out to device's so there is a small reason to be happy.

Everyone get on Sony's case. They will have to answer if there is many people with the same question (use the link for reference as they will want to stick to there lists in front of them and say not happening still). We need to dig deeper and find out whats going on.
[Xperia Play General] Sythedragon:
Can't imagine the update was far off completion before it got scrapped to be fair, it could just be that and there's been a delay in removing the information.
[Xperia Play General] anmiman:
Well i'm not putting my hope too high, although there's slight hope..lol..:p

but i dont think big company like Sony sends their firmware for certification for nothing so this is some kind of good news...:D

[Xperia Play General] UNCUT88RAW:
Hmm, maybe it´s something like the Galaxy S1 2.3.6 update. A Gingerbread-Rom with some ICS features and look, why not? Of course, ICS would be better.

But i must say, i´m not really pleased with ICS on Xperia phones. My mother has an Xperia Mini and I installed the update yesterday. It´s not bad, but the UI felt a bit slower than Gingerbread. And gaming on it was really worse. Tried GTA3, was really slow. I could play on max settings without extreme hiccups with Gingerbread. Now it´s laggy as hell, even on low details. And it froze after 5 minutes of playing. Don´t get me wrong, to have a device with newest OS is better if you play games like Angry Birds. But in this case, it would be crap for me if the update was the same for Xperia PLAY.

So i hope it is something like the Galaxy S1 2.3.6 update.

Sony should off and still should bring ICS out as optional update. I think it was a mistake not bringing it out they should have just stated the game issues but u can still update if u want and if u don't u can stay on gingerbread.

That would make everyone happy and Sony should never off canceled it.

Not all Xperia play users are here on XDA nor do all Xperia play users read blogs and such pertaining to their device. For Sony to roll out an update that breaks the phones main appealing functionality, it would start a bigger outrage then the ICS fiends here. Even with a warning saying gaming is gonna be crap, most people will not read it and accept the update.(I believe most Xplay users are kids) Haven't you seen the South Park episode "Human Cent-iPad"? Lol.
[Xperia Play General] xlance06:
I believe ders a hidden reason thats why sony not release ics on x play,touchpad incapabilities is not d true reason.many games r running smoothly on custom ics.
[Xperia Play General] KeiranFTW:
Look, as a developer I'm pissed myself just a little about this, as we can't use updated ICS libs for zeus in CM9, we have to use ones from the beta. But look at it from Sony's side.

If they released ICS in which the new touch pad implementation broke some games, they would piss off the following people:

Customers who bought the device intending it as a gaming device as well as a phone

Google, for breaking compatibility.

App developers, their apps would get down rated because it doesn't work on ICS, or it should but Sony had to change the implementation.

Its against Google's guidelines to not update a device within 18 month of release, but don't you think it would be worse releasing something that potentially breaks the devices main purpose?

One more thing, even though in the new 4.1.B.0.431 kernel sources they didn't explicitly say the Xperia Play was included, they still kept it in, which I thank them for.

I don't want to here any more of this 'we hate Sony' or anything anymore.

I'm all for open source but Sony don't have to release any more source code, they are complying with licenses releasing what they are now. If they open sourced their touch pad implementation I would be very happy, but it is probably heavily tied into framework and they can't release source for that for obvious reasons.

Just think: at least Sony didn't mangle our RIL like Samsung did, at least they didn't force our boot loaders locked like HTC did, and they open sourced a lot of stuff for FreeXperia such as camera libraries and so on.

So, if anything, you should thank Sony. Just forget about the update. I bet all of you would be first to jump on the boycott bandwagon if they DID release ICS and touchpads as well as games were broken...

Just my two quid--

[Xperia Play General] srelyt:
You change your mind like a girl changes clothes.(Sorry I <3 Katy Perry)

Seriously they could have provided a stable build instead stopping to beta. With a little warning about game compatibility everyone would have been happy. And they should have had foreseen this a bit. Xperia Play is a friggin 2011 smartphone and ICS was released in 2011. What kind of support is that?

Sure it is more difficult with this model because of touchpad amongst other things. But anything not possible for a major company like Sony ? Bull****. They were lazy. And they made their stupid promise committing them even more. They can't walk away like that.

Well yes they can walk away from anything they want at any time they want if they feel something doesn't live up to their standards, yes they made a promise but in the end things just didn't work out the way they had hoped and its not about them being lazy they could easily do it but why would they go thru so much effort for a device that had pitiful sales? Its just not worth their time when their other devices sold a whole bunch more
