My plays flex cable bit the dust a few months ago but now I have successfully brought it back to life and it works just as good as ever!!

Ps. Installing the flex cable is not fun or easy lol for those who want to try. I broke the first flex cable I ordered doing it and had to order a second but now she works great! Prolly keep this as a secondary phone while im still in a rogers contract.
[Xperia Play General] LordBattleBeard:
Another flex cable bites the dust. SE really went to town with the cheap components they used.

My PLAY will be out of warranty in about 4 months, thanks to the 2 year warranty in the uk, so I plan on opening and closing it several hundred times until it breaks so I can send it to the service centre to be fitted with a new one.
[Xperia Play General] psxpetey:
Its not the quality of the cable thats the problem it rubs against a metal peice everytime u open and close it. All they really had to do was put a plasitic protector over that metal peice lol. The stupid slide thing is riveted shut so I cant really do anything myself:( just keep throwing cables at it lol only 12 bucks on ebay
[Xperia Play General] D.Spirit:
For a second I thought that they released the new update ! :mad:

But congratulation on getting your Play fixed and thanks for sharing your experience :)

Hey can you link me where to get that flex cable? Mine went bad yesterday. Do you by chance have a guide or any pointers to change the cable as well? Thanks, I really appreciate your help.
[Xperia Play General] Visa Declined:
They're on ebay all the time. Mine wore out but it was under warranty, they sent me a new phone as a replacement. I had already moved on to a modern Android phone so my brand new PLAY is still in a box. I like to take it out and look at it sometimes.

Ahh the flex cable issue...

Mine has never faulted, however I've replaced the cable in my friend's Xperia Play twice already.
[Xperia Play General] psxpetey:
Ya I think it happens because the slider gets loose causeing a pull on the cable and it rubs on the metal peices hard

Evening Ladies and Gents,

I dropped my Infinity, and unfortunately the rear camera was damaged. It works for a while if you bang on it, then eventually stops working. I cracked the tablet open in order to make sure the connector was fully inserted, it was, and I noticed that the camera rattles when you shake it.

Any idea where I can buy a replacement part?

Although i have unlocked bootloader with flashboot

I cannot root

I even tried flash tool but same thing happens the computer does not recognize the phone for some reason

Can anyone point me to the right direction ?

to flash the firmware do i hold the back button and plug in the usb or the menu button and then plub in the usb?

Menu, or volume down (-)

BTW, Check this thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1653188

There is a link for drivers
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mr_torture:
Really?

Yes, you hold back button while plugging the device. NOT the volume down or menu button.

As for drivers. Try with uninstalling everything from your comp, Flashtool, SUS, PC Companion, etc... And then do a clean install of Flashtool + drivers.

Then boot your comp into safe mode (just to be sure, as sometimes some background processes are preventing drivers from being installed) and then connect your phone to comp into flash mode (back button while connecting cable), and let your phone be recognised.

Then you can reboot your comp back into normal state, and then perform flashing.

Order a Rearth Slim case, they ship their cases from Texas. A cheap TPU from Amazon won't protect your phone.

Very good case that you can find a lot of reviews on the forum about it. I'd cancel that TPU asap, waste of money to be honest.

Hi I posted this on another forum but got no solution. Thought I would re-post here to see if anyone here can help.

I've been trying to figure this one out all day. I updated to Cyanogenmod 10.1 from 10 and since the upgrade I've lost my net work. My service bars are there with the roaming notification. I can't make calls or connect to data. I've done the following to try to fix:

Restored from backup

flashed different radios

Odin restore to stock (Jellybean)

Odin restore to original stock

Rerooted

Unlocked bootloader

Flashed cyanogenmod

I've also repaired my ERI using the Samsung repair tool.

After all this I have gotten no where so I must ask for advise. Along with flashing I've done complete factory resets as well. Any thoughts? Thanks

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] schnyd:
This worked thank you.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Jborch8:
alright, this is getting very frustrating. I'm having the same stupid problem being stuck in roaming/no data. The only solution I find to fix this problem is to go to stock and then dial *2767*3855#....I flashed to stock, I try the number, but am then told by the operator that if I wan't to place a call, I need a credit card blah blah blah blah. Seriously, let's get a solution to this.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] rossida:
this is not the only solution. after u flash CM10.1 If you remove ur sim card and boot up and connect via wifi, u can then register and set up the phone. then shut down put sim card back in and boot up. go to system settings -> More... under wireless and networks -> mobile networks -> CDMA subscription and choose RUIM/SIM (NOT NV)

This should now let the ur phone have access to the network and get rid of the roaming issue.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] lbarllcodel:
Thanks

I searched everywhere to find a the stock 4.04 rom (that wasn't a zip) I could odin in and fix and I had already gone back to the stock 4.1.1 - I didn't know about 4.0 at the time. When I saw your post, I flashed on slimbean 4.3 and before booting I removed the sim, checked the RUIM box, rebooted and profited. Thanks for the post.- even if it was about a year old... :D

I agree, I've been using this app for several months on my touchpad. It brings much need functionality to any tablet.

There are the function I setup:

-3 finger downward-right swipe from the top left cornerto kill the app im in.

-3 finger rightward swipe to use the Back function

-4 finger downward swipe to shut the tablet off

-4 finger upward swipe to kill the notification bars.

-4 finger left or right swipe to move to the previous or next app that was is active

-5 finger expand swipe to pull up my favorite apps (in a small menu)

-5 finger collapse swipe to go to the home screen

New one, right side border 2 finger expand to pull up recent apps.

still playing with other custom settings but those are the most used one I have.

@ Izeltokatl: Thanks for posting your settings. I`m just getting started with GMD and slowly working out a system of custom gestures so I can remove/disable/hide s/w buttons (navbar/statusbar). Even on my Nexus 7, getting rid of the status/notif bar = more real estate! Anyway, I`ll post my custom settings once I have a proper/logical set of gestures in place. cheers!

All I want to do is simple ios gestures.

5 finger pinch to home-close

4 finger swipe left or right to switch apps.

5 finger pinch to close-home is not in the default settings so I had to make a custom one.

Its works,.. after 8-9 attempts..

Guys what am i doing wrong here? I emailed the dev last night too, no response yet. *Edit - DURRRRR! The developer has a thread here, lol*
