[REQ] MT15i 3.0.1.A.0.145 (2.3.3) Generic firmware

Did anyone update to the new 2.3.3 firmware for UK or the USA yet?
Can you create and upload the ftf files please?
A few days ago I updated my firmware to v2.3.3 but now it is full with Chinese apps again and no Google apps installed at all. I don't know what other way there would be to remove the Asian apps and install all the Google goodies.

Global
http://u.115.com/file/e60c0hcd#
BTW,I don't test the ftf.
I'm waiting for rooted rom.
Thank you so much Froce !!!!!!
It worked like a charm!
I've updated my phone with the "Global" firmware.
-----
For anyone who wonders how to update the phone with this firmware:
Before you start be aware that all your information stored on your phone (except for SDCARD) wil be wiped. The apps that you have installed will be gone, your message history will be erased, your contacts (unless synched with Google account) will be gone too.
And... like froce wrote... the ROM is not rooted.
As far as I know there'e no rooted 2.3.3 (3.0.1.A.0.145) out yet. For those that need a rooted F/W. Please go to Bin4ry's post [How-to] Root your Arc (Xperia NEO file included) for a 2.3.2 (3.0.A.2.181) F/W. Also that F/W worked like a charm on my Neo.
Software preparation
Download and install Sony's Update Service. I needed this to install drivers that later on are necessary.
http://www.sonyericsson.com/cws/sup...updateservice/1.349192/xperia-neo?cc=gb&lc=en
Download and extract X10flashtool. This is the program that you need to install the .ftf firmware images. To be able to install the ftf firmware images it needs to connect to the phone through the drivers that you just installed with Sony's Update Service program
Find the download link for Flashtool in: (I used v0.2.9.1 Beta)
[TOOL] [UPDATE 22/03/2011] Flashtool BETA version 0.2.9.1
Copy the firmware image into flashtool's "firmwares" folder. This folder should have been created when you extracted the flashtool archive
Phone preparation
Enable "USB debugging"
Switch off your phone
Connect the USB cable to either your phone or to your computer but not to both yet.
Flashing
Start Flashtool (administrator rights necessary)
press "Flash" button. You should get a new window that shows the device type and firmware content
press "OK" button. A new windows should appear that is asking you to connect your phone. Don't connect yet.
hold down the "back" button on your phone and keep it holding down while connecting your phone to your computer
the window should disappear and flashing should start.
release the "back" key that you were still holding down and sit back, relax and wait.
after flashing is complete, the text message window should say "now unplug the device and power it on". That's it.
Firmware details:
Global firmware came installed with:
Sony apps: Timescape, Music, Gallery, Calendar, Support, Synch, TrackID, Postcard, Media Server, PlayNow Store, FM Radio, Clock, LiveWare manager
Google apps: Market, Facebook, Maps, Gmail, Talk, Navigation, Places, Lattitude, YouTube, News&Weather, Google Search, Voice Search
Other apps: Lets Golf, Media Discovery, NeoReader, UEFA.com, OfficeSuite, Hanashi
For the Global Firmware, where do you go on the page to download the file? I've put it through Google translate, and when I go to the box beside file size, I'm prompted to download and run 115br_u1.exe. Is it safe and/or the proper download method? Thanks in advance!
Sorry,I forgot that is a Chinese web space.
I upload it to mutliupload.

Can the UK FW be installed in a Rogers LT15A Arc? And is this FW a generic one, no brand?
Thanks
This is a neo thread,not arc.
I think that froce's Global firmware is unbranded as inside build.prop:
ro.semc.version.fs=WORLD-1-8
If you can install Neo firmware on an Arc? I don't know. Why would you want to do that if there's more Arc firmware copies available than there are Neo copies.
So no one is able to make a rooted and updated IMG for the Neo, even with the FTF file? It's fustrating. I flashed the 2.3.3 rooted ARC firmware and it works, but I have to turn "auto rotate" screen off, so stop the screen going mental. Apart from that phone is much faster and responsive.
Weird. No problems here with the screen. Works as normal on my phone.
Yeah, wish the firmware was rooted too. I wish I could 'patch' the firmware myself to get root. If anyone would explain how to do that then I'd do it .
Ask for tester.
Please tell me the result.
neo global rooted img.

This rooted img is ok.
Thanks
Can I use this rooted image for unrooted 2.3.3 HK version?
Worked fine here on my Neo! I flashed from the ARC firmware. Thanks so much!
Yes It works!
ERM, i update to 2.3.3 from SONY update service, if i apply the root version, is it mean i need to unlock the bootloader?
Installed and rooted on my Neo (HK 2.3.3) without data loss.
Yes, unlocked BL is required with cleaning of every data.
Hi, can anyone explain to me why there are some SE apps which keep on coming back even after uninstalling? I'm talking about the infamous Hanashi, Neoreader, and UEFA.com apps...
In the firmware that came with my device (Netherlands) they were not there, but the global has them. I tried removing them but even after uninstalling with TitaniumBackup they come back at some point. Also Hanashi seems to eat up some memory all the time!
Tnx!

Maybe because the old f/w wasn't deleted. Yesterday I flashed the rooted ROM and I came to find out that all apps and settings were left untouched. The ROM that I had on my Neo before flashing the rooted version was the same version (2.3.3) but unrooted.
If you don't mind then you could try flashing the old ROM first (2.3.2). The link is in one of the replies in the top of this post. Maybe that will delete the old apps (and all your settings and contacts too). After that flash the 2.3.3 version.
I'm unsure if it will help but maybe it is worth a try

Problem with Xperia PLAY update 2.3.4 pc companion

I have a problem with Xperia PLAY update from 2.3.3 to 2.3.4 by pc companion!
I installed the latest version of pc companion 2.01.231. When start pc companion and connect my Xperia PLAY, pc companion recognize Xperia PLAY and the new update (that's good).
Here the problem, pc companion take a lot of time "prepare computer for software update" with no end.
I waited 1 hour and no download of update just "Initializing".
My computer is fast and the internet connection is good.
My Xperia PLAY Nederland (NL) version.
How can it be solved?
If all else fails , try the Sony Ericsson Updater, i flashed 2.3.3 before 2.3.4 came out , but i suppose it flashes the latest.

use SEUS.
Windows 7 has an annoying issue where the MTP drivers don't load properly.
If you want to use PCC you could try fixing it by opening device manager and uninstall the xperia play usb drivers whilst the xplay is plugged into your PC, then once uninstalled unplug and replug the xplay to your pc usb and wait for the drivers to reinstall.
Just use wontanserver, easiest to use, super fast, and has all the firmware for every version plus its free

We are having this issues with 3 X Sony Ericsson Xperia plays that we use for are site 1 rooted and 2 stock. All have internet and we can use browser etc etc. but when we open Google Play Store/Shop app (No Connection - error) have tried every method , uninstalling, re-installing. delete data/cache. This seams like its an issue that also covers other devices too not just Sony's as far as i cant tell from my findings. any one have any ideas
Thanks for yout post. I was thinking that is only my problem.
But why older stores wont work is the questions cause they worked recently?

Just noticed I'm getting a server error when trying to access the store
I'm also having this problem on my LG P970, and a friend had this too on his phone. For him it helped to unistall all updates for the play store, didn't work for me but you might want to try that out
Found out the issue from google them selfs. Simple fix use 3g as this only effects wifi. after you have connected to the store 1 time on 3g it will sort your wifi issues.
I found the solution too. I deleted all updates and than i use Vending.apk from system/app to install and now it works
jusatin: For me FC is on WiFi and 3g
EDIT: There is still the same problem after reboot
I found modded version of store and it works (maybe cause of mod or other version of apk). It's here:
rootzwiki.com/topic/15092-invertedtotally-inverted-apps-3-16-play-store-updated/ - look for Vending.apk
