[Q] Notification Toggles for R800x - Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Just curious if it's possible to put in a mod for notification toggles on the Verizon R800x, rooted, but with a locked bootloader running 2.3.3. I've come across a few for 2.3.4, but guessing those wouldn't be compatible.
Thanks for any responses.

I would love this too, but sadly after looking around everywhere, none are compatible with our R800x

I've been working on somthing like this. Expect it in the coming weeks

Below is a link to a thread that has some available, for the R800x. However if your running 2.3.3 they will not work.... but here is the link to the thread, i finally found it again.....
STATUS BAR WIDGET MOD
If someone knows how to modify them, I am sure they could work on 2.3.3. I however dont know how to do it.

OTA Rolling Out?

I looked at my brother's phone, the R800AT, and it had the update notification. I clicked it thinking ICS was here for him, and it checked for about ten minutes and said there is no update. Did anyone else get a notification?

There WILL be. Just not for those with unlocked boot loaders and R800a/at/x users. R800i users must lock the boot loader again before updating.

My guess is that they're going to change the partition layout substantially and they can't do that OTA.

[Q] Custome rom for locked bootloader

Hey guys whats the best custom roms for a locked bootloader, i don't mean ICS roms, just what in your opinion on the best and why ie for gaming etc.

Tried that one a few months ago actually. Wasn't bad, except had an issue with my account being swapped for another one on an online game after flashing. Not sure how that happened. After I finally got that fixed with numerous emails to the game developer I flashed my old stock backup.

I've actually been wanting this too. From my research, the best you can find are GBTweaked, ICSTweaked, and DarkForest. I've tried GBTweaked, but have yet to try the others.
Gin2jellybean works also with locked

Why a ROM? Why not just flash a theme? If your on Verizon 2.3.3 you can flash one of my theme's. Click the red link in my signature and have a look.
Problem is, he's got an R800X. I'm not sure if Gin2JB Works on it or not...
Since its Sony based rom then yes. If you have looked to ROM thread there are instructions for locked bloader.

Get GBTweaked and GO Launcher EX, then use the included theme on it. I'm using it, and it runs beautifully. Leraeniesh did a great job with it, and he's constantly improving it. *Cough*It'd be nice to see a version updated for JB*Cough*

Verizon stopped sending out the updates because Google sync didn't work. If you really want it download the 2.3.4 ftf and flash it with flash tool.

Not sure if it applies to the RAZR but with my Electrify M it was not possible to RSD back to 4.0 after I OTA upgraded to 4.1.2. I would be cautious of a bootloader lock with "no way back"
you think this had anything to do with the recent Android malware scare?

I've seen in several places that this update will close the unlock and root exploits. However, if you're unlocked already, it shouldn't re-lock, but it will eliminate root. Why did you unlock, if you're still willing to take OTAs? Just wait for the update to make it into dev's hands, and they can release a "safe" version.

http://www.droid-life.com/2013/07/1...the-kernel-exploit-for-unlocking-bootloaders/
Using RSD to get to 4.1.1 or 4.1.2 should allow for the bootloader to be unlocked again (since its just a kernel fix)
Sad to see we wont be getting official 4.2 anytime soon.
[/COLOR]It is not possible to downgrade the devices once updated unless the bootloader is already unlocked, therefore that won't work.

But you cannot go backwards from 4.1.2 to 4.1.1, that is what I understand.
