[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eksasol:
You won't have to mail in the device, I didn't use the WotanServer service, but other members have tried with success, it should be something you can do using their software.

The only difficult part is getting the drivers recognized by your PC. I was not able to get the drivers recognized with Windows 8, you might have to use Windows 7 or older. The unlocking software will have the drivers included though. But if you read through the flashing guides I linked it should show you how to install the necessary drivers.

Personally I don't use the Play as my daily driver, but as a back up. A lot of apps I use required Android 4+, and I only feel Android 2.x is fast enough on this device for me, but others might disagree. It's not fast enough to play many of the newer graphic demanding games smoothly, but for 2D and not too demanding games it's a winner.

There are several hardware issues that can occur with this phone like the 'flex cable' going bad, which is the cable that connect between to two halves of the phone. But honestly I've never had that issue from the 5 Play that I used. It's actually one of the more durable smartphone I've used even with the sliding mechanism. If you get protection accessories for it and be careful each time you side out the gamepad it should last. It have one of the most durable microUSB port for an Android phone I think.

Also it have excellent stereo speaker. The R800i/R800a version have pretty decent GPS signal, since it also support GLONASS. The R800x do not support GLONASS and have poorer signal.

My preferred idea is still to buy a cheap Verizon R800x for $60 or less, which bootloader can be unlocked from Sony website. Then buy a better daily driver phone. One thing you should know about the R800x is that it can run any of the GSM (R800i/R800a) Gingerbread roms and most kernels, you lose calling ability with GSM roms but you won't be using Verizon anyway. For ICS/JB/KitKat roms, there are usually CDMA version for it as well. It's pretty hard to brick to this device, you can always use Flashtool to restore factory stock image. I feel the R800x version is fastest since it actually use stock Android, compared to the R800i/a which uses Sony UI overlay. It's "fast" even with stock rom and stock kernel, just rooting and deleting bloatwares are enough. You don't need unlocked bootloader to root.

well if i was gonna carry 2 devices i'd just get a used PSP (possibly for free).

it isn't too bad performance wise i've seen it play crazy taxi and GTA III and jetset radio which are them sot demanding android games i want. i've also seen it play Need for Speed 3 on the PS1 emulator. also you can overclock on the custom roms.

it's also said it has long battery life, i may have read that in this thread 9o've had a long evening). I've replaced a flex cable in A* phone before so it breaks i'm not be SOL.

My newly obstacle is getting it on the cheap.

the only thing i'm un sure about is the on screen keyboard. i have a low resolution device and tend to the use physical keyboard more than the screen. i know R800 is higher resolution than the device i have now so maybe i will be able to cope. not a bad trade off consider all the other pluses and pro vs the cons.

EDIT: too bad they never made the PSP phone 2.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eksasol:
The R800i/a stock keyboards have gesture typing, but its not very good. But you can buy Swype keyboard which is pretty good, maybe Swiftkey support Gingerbread as well. A lot of Play and other Sony devices have a layer of screen protector installed by the manufacturer, removing it can help with the touch sensitivity and sometimes viewing angle.

This device does have decent battery life, but you should get a new battery.

How did you upgrade your note into JB ???

what's your home country?? from where did you buy your device??

You can flash the official JB for United Arab Emirates or Saudi Arabia which have native arabic support BUT ONLY if your device is not locked to any country or carrier.

So please answer these question before I can help you.

[LG Optimus G Pro] walkerl:
So I wanted to use my phone at my new job instead of being forced to be use an Iphone!! In order for me to use the phone, I had to set a password and encrypt it. I set the password for the lock screen. Then started the Encryption. Once I started it, I saw the droid bot and I left for lunch. When I came back the phone was done and when I picked it up. It asked for a password to decrypt the phone. I was never prompted to enter a passwd. So I tried to use the lockscreen password. That didnt work. I then tried to get into do a hard reset, the hard reset completed, but it still asked to decrypt. I then reflashed and it still doesnt work...I'm completely out of ideas. I need some help. FYI I'm using CWM 6.0.4.5

Here's the deal. My lady has a eye problem and needs a big screen. I am also thinking about going big too, tho been very happy with my Sensation 4G. So, keeping in mind I like to tinker but she just needs a big screen, what would you say, and why?

Both phones need to have wifi, bluetooth, gps, wifi calling and msg, best cam possible, tethering, and at least my phone needs two way recording of calls..

Just got my ATT note 3

and i am looking at GO phone or h20 wireless...

Go phone which i was told works with exact service as ATT and also supports 4G LTE

$60 x unlimited talk text, 2gb data

H20 wireless

Unlimited talk , text , 5GB x $60

but does not support LTE

for what i know h20 wireless works off ATT as well but not sure if it gets the same reception as Go phone...

Main think im concern with cell reception i need to have reception even in the desert.. which one would work best

I obviously prefer having LTE service.. but Dont know what is ATT 3g speeds..

[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dxjay:
i wouldnt necessarily say that.. ive had gophone for sometime now and my girlfriend has postpaid contract at&t. we both travel from miami and texas and me and her literally have almost always the same service, lte speed wise along with cell coverage. the GoPhone LTE speeds are even faster then when i was on Verizon LTE Postpaid service. id advise you going with Gophone as im sure at&t would give there customers first priority on towers over a third party company plus you also get LTE. Only difference i was told between gophone and postpaid is priority on towers but i can tell you being with gophone so far i havent seen any issues (i.e dropped calls, not receiving text, calls not going through) but take that with a grain of salt everyone's experience is different if you do choose gophone ask them to give you a postpaid sim card seems to work better lte wise when i was at the store

EDIT: okay so i found the "coverage" map on Coverage Map Link and it is definately not only 1/5th of the coverage lmao id say the only differences im seeing is certain unpopulated areas you dont get as good or any reception on gophone as you would on contract. remember to choose "GoPhone® Pick Your Plan" as the other gophone option is for by the minute.

I have been on gophone $60 plan for months. I was a post paid customer on att and did not notice a difference in service at all when I switched. For me it is just like being in a contract plan. I would go for it if I was you. You can always go back to a contract if you have a problem.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Bleezle:
I recently left the United States, and now my phone isn't working as smoothly as I would like it to. So, now I have lots of question. I also missed the 4.3 OTA update, not sure if I even really need it from the flyer I looked at on VZW website. First things first.

I arrived in Buenos Aires 2 weeks ago and signed up with a local service called Claro, got a chip, found APN's and was online. Pretty smooth. However, I was stuck on the Edge network. So, after almost 2 weeks of pulling hair out and searching on the web for the problem. I called VZW global services and they told me that Claro is who they use for there PRL (preferred roaming list) and that if I use Claro's service with my VZW phone I will be locked in Claro's Edge network and never get 3g or HSPA+. They told me to use a different service in Buenos Aires if I want to get 3g or HSPA+. So I cancelled the Claro service and went to the other companies and their plans totally suck. None of the plans here are really that good, but Claro had the best plan for me.

My first question for this thread is, if I root my phone will it remove VZW's PRL from my S3 and allow me to get Claro's 3g and HSPA+ connection, or is there a way to remove the PRL?

Please help me figure this stuff out. I'm seriously tired of digging through forums. I feel like I have been devoting so much of my energy to a silly phone. :cyclops:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] vax1170:
I don't think rooting the phone will get you anything new related to phone service, roaming, or priority access lists.

I don't know much about how PRL's work, but rooting your device might be the first step needed to tinker with embedded phone settings and flashing roms that might do what you need.

I found this: http://www.androidcentral.com/how-update-your-prl-your-cdma-device

may not apply to S3, but could be useful.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Bleezle:
Thanks for reply.

I did some reading on PRL's, so yeah, I don't want to mess with that stuff on my phone.

I went to another carrier here in the city and I'm stuck on the same network, Edge. Basically I'm back at the same place as before and I was fed some bull**** from VZW global support. So, I called VZW global support again got totally frickin' nowhere! I should of bought an AT&T phone I wouldn't have this problem right now. F@#k VZW, they sell a product and call it a "global phone" but then it has limitations in other countries, that's not f@#cking "global." God bless corporate America! So fed up with phones right now, I was so much happier with a flip phone.
