[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lilkuz2005:
hello all, a while back, about 3 months ago i tried to mod my xperia play r800x CDMA, i messed the phone up bad trying to install CM9, i was able to get a custom kernel installed before trying CM9, but i ended up trying to repair the phone using a stock rom i found for the r800x, my carrier is Appalachian Wireless, the FTF i used was for a verizon phone and it would not work on my carriers 3G after the flash, so i sent the phone off and my carrier tried to reflash their stock firmware and then 2 weeks later the phone came back and it still wouldnt work for my carriers service, so i ended up buying a new xperia play. im really wanting to get this phone overclocked. it feels really laggy, even with my 64gb sd card and link2sd installed and a 2gb partition for app installs, it feels just like it did with the stock 8gb card, to slow for use, cant play most of the games i have downloaded because of this, most of the apps take a while to load, and the OS just feels like its crawling, like when i try to swipe left and right on the screen, or open the apps drawer, im willing to pay for someone to take the time to help me get my phone pimped out with the best rom and the best kernel, im really not sure what the fastest rom would be for playing games, someone said i should stay with GB, but i have installed cm10.1 on my old nook color and its just about as fast as cm7.2, so i would really like to get a newer rom, like ICS. my boot loader is still locked on this phone, i need to pay to get this one unlocked like i did the first phone, so if anyone has any spare time to help me out i will donate some loot for your troubles
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] abdel12345:
You don't need to pay to unlock it you can unlock it using your meid on the Sony website
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lilkuz2005:
I have tried that a while back but in the service menu my phone doesn't show the boot loader status. So I don't think I can unlock it like that
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] abdel12345:
Yes I know it doesn't show it because Verizon hid it so people wouldn't unlock. I unlocked mine the free way like that and you have the same type as me so it should work fine

Can you give me a step by step tutorial on how you unlocked your boot loader? I really don't want to mess my phone up again. They are a little expensive lol
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] abdel12345:
Go to Sony's website and under development you'll see an option to unlock your boot loader. From there it will tell you exactly what to do and its pretty easy. If you get stuck on anything just post it here and I'll try to help.

OK, your right about being able to unlock the bootloader from the Sony site, I wish I had known this before paying the $15 to get my first phone unlocked lol, anyways, I now have 2 unlocked xperia plays, I want to test with the one that I messed up first before I use the ROM and kernels on my main phone, I tried to download and install x-parts to get clockworkmod installed on both of my phones but after the install is finished the phone doesn't boot into recovery, I don't even see a blue led while booting the phones and pressing the volume down button rapidly. Any ideas on how to get xparts installed and working on my phones? I'm guessing this should be the next step in getting my phone fixed up? Or is it?
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] abdel12345:
Use an older version of xparts grim the xda thread. The one from the play store doesn't work for some reason. And the new version is also broken. Use an olds version of it.

[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lilkuz2005:
OK I now have cwm installed on my main phone, I need to catch up with my old phone before I go any further, have you tried all the kernels for the CDMA r800x, if so what's the best in your opinion, I'm looking to over clock and game, the bards tale is lagging on my stock phone, and I paid for that game and I canton play it
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] abdel12345:
Well are you using 2.3.3? If so use doomkernel v3 for cdma. If your using 2.3.4 use doomkernel v14 it says for gsm but also works with cdma. If you use google sync then stick with 2.3.3 because it doesn't work with 2.3.4. You can also theme 2.3.3 with attacks themes. You can find all these under smokermans index thread.

[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lilkuz2005:
do you know if i can run other roms like some ICS roms with the doomkernel v3 for CDMA ? or would i need to find a new custom kernel for newer roms ? after reading the past few weeks about the custom roms available for the r800x it seems that if you want to game you need to stick with GB roms, so i need to know if the doomkernel v3 will work with the stock GB rom or do i need to get a custom GB ROM and an older version of the DoomKernel ?
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] abdel12345:
Doomkernel v3 cdma for gb should work. Don't mistake it with doomkernel v3 for ics because that one won't work. But also it depends what stock your using. If your using 2.3,4 then WiFi won't work with doom kernel v3 so check your android version in about phone.

Sent from my Xperia Play (r800x)
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lilkuz2005:
i cant seem to find the doomkernel v3 for gb, i can only find the one that is for leaked ics, are you sure its not v2 ?

my phone is running android v 2.3.3 and i think doomkernel v2 is the one i need, i found a post that you uploaded those files, so im going to flash and test tonight, i hope it works
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lilkuz2005:
Well I just flashed doom kernel v2 and have over clocked to 1.6ghz and now the bards tale is running smooth, also epsxe and fpse both are running 100x better, I haven't looked at any ROMs, I'm still running the stock ROM and its running great to me, I don't know of using a custom ROM would make this phone any faster, please let me know if there is any cool quick ROMs I should take a look at, I want to thank you for all your help
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] abdel12345:
Yeah your right man sorry about that it was v2 I just got mixed up a little. Well that's great that you got it working :D:thumbup:

I think doom kernel has broken my camera, anyway to get the cameras working again with this kernel? I have tried to test both cameras in the service menu and neither one is working, thats a real deal breaker for me because I use my cameras all the time
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] abdel12345:
Camera works fine for me. Are you sure your using 2.3.3
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lilkuz2005:
Yes I'm using the stock 2.3.3 that came with the phone. The cameras worked before installing this kernel, should I try lupus kernel to see if that fixes it? Can you give a link to the exact doom kernel that you have installed for 2.3.3 stock ROM? I really want to get this working
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] abdel12345:
Lupus wifi won't work with 2.3.3 buy it will work with 2.3.4. The problem is there's no google sync with 2.3.4 because Verizon messed it up.

Do this

Make a backup of your Rom with cwm. Then flash the stock 2.3.3 ftf with flashtool and exclude kernel. So thus on your messed up device first to see if it works. The kernel you said you downloaded is the same one I use. And what exactly is wrongg with the camera dies it say can't connect or does it freeze when you take a pic

[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lilkuz2005:
Well I don't have Verizon I have Appalachian wireless and the last time I tried to flash a stock Verizon ftf it messed my phone up and my carrier couldn't fix it, it looks like it does something to the 3g, they couldn't get the phone to activate on their service, do you know how I can get a copy of my stock ROM from my carrier, I asked them and they said they don't release those to the public, and my cameras won't start it says sorry the application camera (process com.android.camera) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lilkuz2005:
Can I just flash over a custom kernel or do I need to remove the previous kernel before I flash a new one? I think I'm just going to go for it, thanks for your help again
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] abdel12345:
Yes just flash over it but if you flash a kernel with a different partition size like lupus kernel then you have to wipe because it needs to adjust rom to new pairings

Sent from my Xperia Play (r800x)
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lilkuz2005:
I'm not sure I understand how to do all that, I guess I'll go read some more and see if I can figure this out
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] abdel12345:
If you take a look at smokermans xperia play index thread you'll see guides on how to do everything by fma965. There's also a list of a bunch of roms and mods you can use but since you want to game stock to gb roms

well i just flashed [KERNEL][PLAY] LuPuS STOCK ICS&GBv5 [LINARO 4.7.3][09-05-13] over the doomkernel v2 for gb, and now my camera's are working again, but the phone is running really slow, and its freezing up sometimes, can you tell me if there is anything i can try to get my phone back up to speed ? do i need to wipe any cache, what does wipe system and data do ? sorry about all the noob questions, and thanks again for all your help
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] abdel12345:
Wiping data will get rid of all your installed apps and wiping system uninstalls your ROM (don't wipe system or your phone won't boot unless you flash another ROM). If you want a kernel for GB use lupus v10 gb fixed you can find it in the last or second last page of the thread. This or doom v14 are the best choices for GB. Since you've been having problems with doom kernel use lupus v10 GB. Don't use the ICS gb version because it isn't optimized for GB though it can be used with it the GB only version is better. I'd recmend after flashing the kernel wipe data, cache, and dalvik cache from recovery. Make sure you backup all your apps to SD card first though before wiping so you can restore them after

[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lilkuz2005:
well i wiped all data except system and the phone is much faster now but my wifi is messed up, its not showing an error but it will not connect, my camera is working again also, now i need to figure out how to fix the wifi issue...when it rains it pours lol
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] abdel12345:
Well the wifis not working because your probably using 2.3.3. Flash the 2.3.4 ftf with flash tool but exclude kernel and you should be fine. Then you can root it by flashing the root zip from lupus GB op in the thread

im really sorry to bother you again, but can you give me a list of CDMA only roms that i can use on my r800x, some of the roms in the list that smokerman has made doesn't show if the rom is for GSM or CDMA or both. i really just want a stable fast ROM and everything works and i want to be able to overclock my phone to at least 1.6ghz for gaming, i know i need a custom rom that is 2.3.4 or better for my wifi to work, i just need to find the right one, i really like the lupus kernel that im using, its working pretty well, but i just couldn't get my wifi working on the stock 2.3.3 rom, so i need to find an update, thanks again for taking your time and helping me
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] abdel12345:
Your welcome. But if you like gaming then your not going to find any custom GB ROMs and GB is best for gaming. Your best chance would be to use stock 2.3.4 and just remove all the Verizon bloatware with titanium backup. You can change the home launcher to make it look better and theme your status bar using ROM toolbox. There are also lots of great gaming mods by pizza dox that you can flash. But sadly you won't find any custom GB ROMs besides cm7 (which doesn't work with touch pads). If your ever interested in jb or ICS then there's plenty cm9/cm10 based ROMs but no stock ones that I know of. And if you flash stock 2.3.4 on lupus your camera will break but flashing vokals camera fix will fix that

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] 3abdo3asal:
So i have a list of stuff that i couldn't do so im seeking ur guys help !!!

1. How to use more than 445 mb of system size when partitioning ...

i use magldr 1.1.3 and when i flash TWRP i modify the flash.cfg file and i write for example

500 mb in system and 10 mb for recovery and 44 mb for cache

...what do i need to do use more than that i always use [datatoext] so i really don't use the onboard nand

correct me if im wrong but its only used for system date and cache right ... or is cache take a part in the ram nand

2. what ever rom i use it always shows 410 mb of ram will im using a 1042 rom / 576 ram t-mobile HTC HD2 with

t-mous radio version 15.42.50.11U_2.15.50.14 so is it right or is there missing ram ..

3. I have used a lot of roms like each pixilfreak rom ,parnoid android , slim rom , miui roms ,aokp roms

and i have 120 / 130 mb ram usage with custom launchers like adw , nova ,apex .. good right !!

4. How do i know for sure that the 200mb swap partition that i created is being used ...

.. and then an of subject question i have a nokia lumia 920 so is wp on the hd2 any where close to that i know that the difference is like

moon and sun but i just want a couple of views cause i want to try wp 7 on the hd2 but i don't like one bit of it ..

and the 920 i gave to my sis just so u know * :eek::eek:
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] gilbert32:
1- 445mb is maximum for any hd2 (eu or tmous) afaik, never seen someone using more on tmous so i don't think it's possible

2- it's 576mb ram, but android shows 410 because parts of it are for video memory (128mb i think) and the rest is for system/kernel etc so you can use 410mb

3- is 3 a question?

4- that depends whether you created the partition correctly, and if the rom SUPPORTS swap (it should be an option in installer)
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] 3abdo3asal:
thanks man for the fast repely this were just stuff going thru my mind that i wanted to clear ..

any how the swap partition is right because i use lubuntu linux as my main computer system

and i have a swap on that and also i have partitioned my sdcard with the gparted app . :o:o

i just wanted to know if there is a tool to monitor swap usage in android :cyclops::cyclops:
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] gilbert32:
well i don't know about that

but there are 2 commands, swapon and swapoff in terminal emulator which you can use but they need linux knowledge and i never used them before so try google-ing for what you want to know
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] samsamuel:
your phone is using the onboard nand constantly, since that is where the system is running from.

Re:swap - personally i only use roms that either don't offer swap, or have the ability to choose not to activate it. The (usually very small) performance gain is hugely outweighed to my mind by the increased load/decreased life of the sd card.
