[Xperia Play Android Development] saqibkhan:
HI.. since this is a Special Kernel thread.. I just wanted to ask for my clarification regarding all kernels.

What is the difference between System/ Data/ Internal Storage ?? I mean.. all I know is we have 380mb for installing apps.. please Explain me the difference between these 3 .. and is it possible to change the sized for a kernel on request.. so maybe we wouldn't have to install apps like Link2Sd !
[Xperia Play Android Development] TheScriptKitty:
The Xperia Play has 1GB(1024MB) of Internal Storage, this is divided in two main partitions which are System and Data. The System Partition is where all the System Apps and the Android OS is stored. The Data Partition is where the Apps you install and their data is stored.

I did not change the Partition Table of those Kernels, [MENTION=4053663]Bakisha[/MENTION] did, i just Converted them from .IMG files to .FTF files. If you want a specific Kernel to have a specific Data and System Partition size you should ask him. Here is a link to his Thread: [KERNEL COLLECTION] Collections of compiled kernels with different partition layout
[Xperia Play Android Development] Bakisha:
Data partition IS internal storage.

Stock, Doomkernel, Lupus ICS v12 and all CM kernels have 310MB system and 380MB data partition size.

Lupus GB v12 have 280MB system and 640MB data

Lupus ICS/GB v7 and Turbo kernel 3.1 have 310MB system and 609MB data

Yes, link2SD can help you to move apps to sd, but game's data files are stored in internal storage (/data/data folder) and it can fill up if lot of stuff is installed...

I personaly use Lupus GB with 700MB data size. Gingerbread ROMs are never big in size, very few are 200MB+
[Xperia Play Android Development] TheScriptKitty:
From what I understand Internal Storage is referred to all of it not just the Data Partition, as in every Review and Promotional Documentation(I have seen) it states the whole memory as Internal Storage and refer the Data Partition as "User Accessible" Storage. (In the PC world its also this way, as when you buy a Computer it states the Internal Storage as the whole size of the HDD).

And if you buy the Plus Version of Link2SD you are also able to move the Apps' Data(Whats in /data/data) to your Micro SD Card ;)
[Xperia Play Android Development] Bakisha:
You are right, internal storage in xPlay is 1GB, "User Accessible" is size of data partition. For me, term "internal storage" can be different, depending of version of andrioid os installed (because of emulated sd card in android 4.1 and later)

I just personaly like more to have apps installed on internal memory, because it is faster compared to sdcard (on xPlay), so I never tried to move /data/data/ folder to sdcard
[Xperia Play Android Development] saqibkhan:
[MENTION=5601538]TheScriptKitty[/MENTION] I have tried to Flash xDKernel and Lupus Kernel ftf's.. but both give me error in flashtool while the same kernels were flashed as .img files.

Could anyone or you (or maybe me oneday) test all of them and see which works and which don't. just an idea.
[Xperia Play Android Development] TheScriptKitty:
First of all thanx for your feedback :good:

But sadly I don't own the Xperia Play any more so I can't test to see which ones work and which don't. But I can try to fix them if you provide me with more information about the Error you are getting. I'll need the exact version of the Kernels you tried to installed and the FlashTool Logs.

PS.

Even though I don't have the Xperia Play any more I'll continue to update this Thread ;)
[Xperia Play Android Development] KiraYahiroz:
From my own testing, these ones works:

LupusV07,V08,V12 GB/ICS 480p and 720p

TurboV3.1.1 480p and 720p

Legacy Xperia 20140703 and 20140817

Any chance you can convert the latest CM11 one? Tried doing it myself but the guides seems to confuse me :p.
[Xperia Play Android Development] TheScriptKitty:

Already relock and unlock my bootloader with flashtools.. Can somebody help?
[Xperia Play Android Development] TheScriptKitty:
Your bootloader is locked. If it was unlocked the "R" in "R9A021" would have been lowercase.
[Xperia Play Android Development] HUEguy:
But when I go to flashtools and select the option to unlock my bootloader it only apears the unlock code and the option to relock it, doesn't that mean it is already unlocked?

unless u have done the test point method then u likely still need to first. sony has a unlock bootloader site. after selecting device and filling info u will get an unlock code and instructions. if ur device is not eligible u can still unlock it with s1tool (i think ur device can) but wont have fast boot access just flash mode. gluck

After posting a link for all my FTF files I posted on my DevHost account, only to recently discover that DevHost deleted about 90+% of all my files without informing me of which I was super pissed about, I located all FTF files for the Xperia PLAY and downloaded them and backed them up to a secure location.

With that I have uploaded all these FTF files to my pogoplug account where I will have complete control and have made a link for everyone to access the FTF files as a separate location. Please see below:

http://ppl.ug/cka1KICty08/

FTF Kernels Collection - Special Thanks to

TheScriptKitty

http://ppl.ug/eMC6s8_4ckc/

If for some reason this link should ever stop functioning someone please let me know immediately, thank you.

Edit

- With that in mind I will be purchasing another Xperia PLAY within the month, although I moved onto a Nexus 5 about 18 months ago I never stopped visiting this forum. Hope to see ya'll around the xperia play stomping ground!

Edit 2

- Not sure if this is still used for the PLAY, this is the recoveryPLAY.img used to boot into this file at which point you would then flash recovery files:

http://ppl.ug/KfUOFPUGZ-Q/

Command: fastboot flash boot recoveryplay.img

EDIT 3

- Anyone who wished to download these files and post a separate download link for posterity purposes for the PLAY is more then welcome, the more solid locations that we can share links to the better chance we will have of no files disappearing, resulting with all users having access to these files.

I am also experiencing bootloop issue with CM13 kernels. Other TFT kernels works well.

However, I want to point out that it is not appropriate to demand an update as it is extremely rude and and is against XDA rules.

I found a youtube how to convert img to ftf. It is in Spanish, but it seems fairly straightforward.

I might give a shot when I have a spare time to install XP+cygwin or Linux virtual machine.
[Xperia Play Android Development] yekasangredevago:

I could make using this tutorial, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YN2dX6bxibE, and I've tried I flash it, but nothing, still bootloop, a shame .. must be some incompatibility when converting the kernel with this method or something, :/

[MENTION=5601538]TheScriptKitty[/MENTION] , any idea what may become the problem ???

You have not asked mikeoannina? I sent a message, but did not answer.
[Xperia Play Android Development] TheScriptKitty:
I think the kernel conversion procedure has nothing to do with the bootloops you are experiencing. I base this on the fact that a few other people that use the normal .img and have flashed it via fastboot have had very similar problems while most don't have any issue. So the issue is most likely related to the install procedure and/or the pre-install preparation as it effects both people trying to flash it via fastboot(.img) and flash mode(.ftf). I recommend that you start from the beginning and do every steep carefully.

As an extra confirmation that the .ftf files work you should try to get someone that already has cm13 working on their device to flash the .ftf file over it(It should boot normally).

I would also like to say that I no longer have this device(as I have stated before) and there for can not test the new .ftf files personally but I will continue to update this thread.

This thread will be updated when I have some free time(with the latest kernel).
[Xperia Play Android Development] yekasangredevago:
I really do not know how I could find a user who has run you a kernel FTF or IMG (to ask and make FTF) :(, I find nothing in the threads on (MM):. :/

Ok.

So u have rooted jellybean.

Go to CoCore thread and install CoCore witch CWM.

U are I9070 user so install CoCore E. Move downloaded .zips (i recommand to check Md5 sum before installing if md5 is wrong re-download occrupted .zip) to Sd card and than follo the instruction in CM 11 thread.

Caution : I am, this forum is not responsible for any damge tob your device.

I dont think nandroid backup is needed because if instaltion went wrong u should use Odin.

If u will have any problem with instalation ask me.
