I dont wanna keep spamming Doomlords kernel Thread so i created a new one here.
The thing is that after flashing Doomkernel v11 (maybe the is not the reson) my gsm conection is completly broken. No calls, No SMS, No Data.
I tried flashing kernel v10, full wipe, flashing with flashtool fw .368, .42, .62.
Nothing of that changes anything.
please help me!
Have you overclocked your CPU?
Sent from my beautiful Xperia PLAY using xda premium
yes, but only up to 1.2 ghz but the new doomkernel wich maybe coused this has also gpu overclock. Could it be the reson?
Have you tried the repair tool in SE PC Companion (or is it SEUS?). I haven't used it since I had an x10 mini pro, but I remember it could solve all sorts of problems. Could be worth investigating

Hmm i have to lock my bootloader for that. Okay i will give it a try.
Tried it multiply times. Changed nothing.
First, don't worry! My friend had the same problems with radio in his Arc S...
This thing worked for him - It may sound stupid but turn off your phone, pull the battery and put your phone in some cool and safe place and don't use it for some time, a week or two.
At his case after about 12 days everything went back to normal and I don't f*cking know why
Cheers!

I will try that. But if it does not work its 12 days wasted time...
Hey Bro, feel bad for you
I remember it happened to me when I did something stupid with v10. And have no radio after that.
Don't know if this will work for you but what I did was flashed .42 first then it had signal and flashed .62 again and everything is okay now.
Have you tried flashing back to stock kernel?
Stock kernel is being flashed whenever you flash stock ROM.
Try writing to alejandrissimo, he had some fixes for broken radio.
Sent from my beautiful Xperia PLAY using xda premium
jep i contacet him, he said he can fix it but it coasts 24 dollar, i did not really understand why. But thats still much cheaper than if i send it to sony and they void my warrenty.... but i sended it to sony two month ago becouse of broken flexcable and that was completly free... hard decision...
This radio repair is paid because of setool credits that are needed to be used in order to repair your device using this software.
But you have warranty, 24$ is not much and if radio repair work for you, you will still have warranty in case of serious damage.
Cheers!

He already did that, he said about that in DooMLoRD's thread about kernel.

He tried his sim in another phone and it worked. I think he's sending it to Sony or getting the radio unbricked

Alejandrissimo really did it!! I paid him 20€, a bit more than he wanted and than he did it. Now it just works, i could not be happier.

Hi,
Can anyone clear this up for me,I live in Ireland and still havent got the Xloud etc update and now the 2.3.4 update has come along and nothing.
I have called SE a couple of times but they said they have released it to everyone and is up to my phone provider which is Meteor,But I have a friend who works for meteor and said this is pure lies.
I have tried to connect to PC companion for update but says my phone is up to date but I have heard of people in Ireland with the Xloud update.
Just getting a bit frustrated here, Can anyone explain or help with this

Actually, a question for the OP. I can't get my meteor Arc to boot into fastboot mode (or whatever it's called...the mode with the blue LED on startup) which leads me to believe it's carrier locked. Do you find the same? I haven't got the 2.3.4 update either.
If my phone is carrier locked, is there any way to upgrade besides through my carrier? This could be a real noob question!

Like maybe 7 hours ago. Was upgrading my phones os. root and what not. so far i havent found anyone with this problem. perhaps its hardware?
If you went doing anything significantly didn't from any other occasions, it's probably the hardware . if the problem persists, visit the Sony store

Ok so, I already own an Xperia Play R800x with Verizon Wireless. So I know what I'm in for.
Here's the story, about 2 months ago a local pawn shop had a Brand New Xperia Play 4G (AT&T) for $199.
So before I could buy it some other guy picked it up and got an extended warranty. BUT TODAY, the guy brought it back to the pawn shop, there is now a $49 price tag on it... sounds good right, here's the concern.
The guy told me he brought in the phone and said the phone randomly turns off, sometimes in 5 minutes, sometimes in 30...it just randomly turns off. I did not check if he had any custom roms on anything like that installed so assume it's stock.
So here's the question, what do you think is wrong with it? I myself have 2 theories, A: the battery is faulty. or B: the charging cord is inferior or not of the proper voltage....
What do y'all think??

Yep, dont think its a hardware problem. If it was, It wouldnt happen, then stop then happen again. Thats just weird.
He probably installed too much apps or hacked it or somethin like that.
Ask the person if he dropped it or somethin.

I can try but I doubt he'd tell me if he dropped it lol.
From little research I've discovered when the cpu gets too hot the phone reboots....so perhaps he has something running in the background that triggers his phone to randomly goes off according to what apps and things he may be running?
Just based on what it sounds like I'd say it's a software issue but I also want people thoughts & input.
Thanks keep it coming

I have a ARC S, it is not locked to any network and has never been.
It is currently running Android 4.0.3. I wish to install android 4.0.4.
I did a freash install of 4.0.3 and it made thingsa much better.
I have no lagging, no crashing or any problems.
The only problem i have is Sony seem to have thier fingers stuffed up thier A**** as i have still not had the update sent to my phone even after trying PC companion and SEUS.
Is there a way i can fool the software into thinking my phone is from a different region that has already had the update.
I want to be able to update without having to wipe it.
Thank you

That was what Sony said at its forums. You can check the sony forums instead. Even so, don't be too enthusiastic with the update as it's not a major update. It only addresses minor issues and the kernel remains unchanged.

Success, I am now running android 4.0.4 on my ARC S.
Sony have not released the update for my SI number but I managed to fool the PC companion into offering the update.
I rooted my phone.
Used a Build.prop editor to change my I'd code.
Restarted my phone. The phone still would not update over the air, but when I plugged it into my pc and fired up PC Companion, it offered the new update.
All done,

I hate my Xperia S after the latest upgrade. Widgets and Icons gone on reboot and swift keyboard too. Worse, there are so many bugs, charging light and many more. I keep having to reboot it as well. I have factory reset it and also flashed again with PC Companion but still it is awful. It's got to the point where I am considering just giving up and getting a Galaxy, (I have Galaxy Tab and that is fine after same upgrade).
I cannot believe a company like Sony can produce such a bad update and not do anything about it
So before it goes in the bin, is there any thing I can do?

We all are using this awesome update without almost any bugs at all. All the previous bugs are fixed now.
