Is there a way to root without unlocking bootloader? Tried looking around find only Verizon topics and different replies on att.
Also is there a stock image to reflash if needed to get ota updates if needed?

Ok thanks how do I reflash the att stock image if I wanted that

once you have the bootloader unlocked and clockwork recovery installed you can make a complete backup of your phone in the recovery mode.
Thats what i did before i flashed a new rom. The stock att rom is not available here so you need to make a backup as far as i know
And ok I dnot want to unlock so I was going to go the route of flashing the other region firmware. But if I dint have the stock att firmware to go back to I dint want to do that. Guess I will have to wait to see if someone can figure out root without unlock. Thanks for the help though I understand now.

I had att but flashed to r800a 2.3.2 using wontanserver.com (its free just got to register) then used gingerbreak and updated OTA to 2.3.3 with bootloader locked. R800a is like att but no att bloatware.

Right but if you ever wanted to go back to r800at stock firmware is there a way?

I was wondering this myself, since I too have an AT&T play, running the 800a firmware on GB. I've been having some issues with it though. Is it possible to go back to AT&T stock?
No unless you unlock bootloader and find someone who made a back up of the att rom.
What problems are you having?

R800a rooted I really wanted to overclock without a custom rom is that possible?

You need a custom kernel, which requires an unlocked bootloader
Cant you just flash the modules on stock

Nope, it's possible that devs are working on a locked bootloader version, but it's not doable yet
Thanks for the info!

Im using gin2jellybean on my once r800at now r800i locked boot loader and everything is perfect, even better than with the stock rom.
not sure though if it works on R800x.

Correct these roms that are listed from this poster do not work with the r800x. You will get a bootloop. Since your bootloader is locked your stuck with what you have. Since you have r800x there is currently no other gb locked roms. Most of the gb locked roms only support the GSM xperia plays.
Hello members of XDA I've been having some trouble with my Xperia Play R800a, Locked bootloader, A few days ago I was trying to install a rom and after it sent me into a bootloop, I was not able to get into CWM from there so I opened up the flashtool and tried getting it back to factory settings, now I can boot it up just fine, but when I try putting CWM through x-parts or cwm installer nonthing is coming up after I try to get into CWM
Was that ROM for unlocked bootloaders or locked? What is the name?

It was the Ice Cream Pureness ROM, I believe it was for both locked and unlocked bootloaders

This has been said many times... It's not possible because a custom kernel needs to be flashed, and that special partition is locked by the bootloader and cannot be written to when locked.
I c i cant unlock my plays bootloader as testpoints dont register so im stuck on stock 2.3.3 with minimal roms to use
