[Q] Just a question about rooting - Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I cant believe that I didnt know 2.3.4 was available for xperia play 0_o
anyways, im currently on 2.3.3 and my phone is rooted. If I update, will my phone be unrooted? (i have a feeling the answer is yes but I just want to make sure).
Also, the stock camera really isnt good, I saw a mod for xperia play where the R button takes photos and L button focuses. Are there other mods similar to this?
And when will virtua tennis (from sega) be available on xperia play? I saw them testing the game out on the play in the sony ericsson blog and 2 months ago...

Yes it will become unrooted again if you update the firmware

depends on how you update.

[Q] Anyone with at AT&T Xperia Play??

I keep searching for the official playstation games in the market of my Xperia Play and I can't fine them at all? But when i search for them from my web browser on my PC they come up but they say that "This Item is not available for your carrier"?? They were last night, I bought one from my phone?? Any reason why this would happen?
Open playstation pocket and there will be a search button at the top right. Just click it and there will be 7 official psone games to buy.

Edit: Nevermind I just restarted the phone and all is well again.

[Q] lost xplay game launcher more games

I stupidly deleted funandgames.apk on my rooted xperia play.
now when I flip open the pad I cannot goto more games and see what new game delights is available
I have downloaded system dump and still can't find the newer .368 dump
just the old one with getgames.apk which doesn't retrieve any games. just says loading and distant do anything. anyone friendly people Wanna share funandgames.apk with me or direct me to a system dump with this on. your help would be appreciated.
also my battery drains quite quickly on .368 compared to .184 still the same apps etc running nothing different any ideas people. will this stablise over time? cheers
It's the firmware that's killing your battery. Use a generic 2.3.2 and ota to 2.3.3. Had some problem. Also I froze the fun and downloads.apk just press the search button at the top right to see all the xperia play optimized games in the market. I noticed ea and gameloft games don't show so here you go.

[Q] Rooting & Unrooting Xperia Play

Hello xda comunity!
I got an Xperia PLAY about 2 days ago and it comes with tons of bloatware and pre-installed apps which I would like to erase. I have been searching in Google a way to root and then unroot it but I don't know too much about this since this is just my first Android mobilephone and my consoles just got stolen some days ago I wouldn't want to lose my XPlay... So, if anyone could guide me in the correct way to do it I would appreciate it.
Btw, my XPLAY is an R800a

I use the built in rooting feature of Flashtool ver 0.6.7.0 if it does not work, my alternative would be Doomlord's Zergrush (always works 100% of the time for me). You just have to download some Java stuff like the ADB drivers, etc. There are many useful links on the Xperia Play Android Development section. I have Google as my best friend as well

[Q] ICS build .562 Temple run and other issues

First of all my Xperia Arc S is not unlock or rooted, its completely stock no modifications made upgraded thru Sony PC Companion.
anyone experience some issues on temple run when you swipe to side to side sometimes the character jumps or slides instead of turning left or right?
and another issue for me is xperia home launcher it doesnt save my settings to arrange my drawer in alphabetical order it always return to own order after opening some apps like playstore?
any solution guys?
need your help badly..
hmm,i think i read somewhere that some games arent fully compatible with ics and there will be problems with the touch screen.
yea my arc s is GB and temple run is running smooth. Then after i get ICS its not recognizing touch properly
It's appears when i update wif ics 4.0
When I downgraded this problems havn't appear.
This is a known issue with Temple Run and ICS on some devices including ours. Plenty of comments on this on Google Play so let's hope they fix it soon.
Congratulations, you are the 100th person to ask this!
It is an ICS bug, happens in most of the games. Sony's fault.
I am not happy with Sony's ICS. I actually run Achotjan's SEMC Debrand Engine and it's awesome. I recommended it.
Downgrade to GB is the best solution for this case!
I think so
Temple run is not fully compatible with the ICS.

It's not Sony's fault. I've experienced this problem on CM9 too, which is not based on anything from Sony(kernel, firmware, etc.)
I just downloaded Gravity Project and it has the same problems as Temple Run. Completely unplayable.

[Q] New Xperia S android 4.0 apps

Hi,
recently, I have upgraded my Xperia Arc S to the official sony android 4.0 rom for 2011 xperias, which is quite nice.
But today (21st June, 2012), Sony released a new android update for the Sony Xperia S, which is different from the android 4 for my arc. Here is the video about it: youtube.com/watch?v=i189IkIvJc0&feature=player_embedded
I noticed that among everything else, Xperia S got 3 new awesome apps: "Walkman", "Album" & "Movies." The "Messaging" app also got updated with useful new features [shown in video at 2:45]. Would anybody be willing to make these 4 apps available on other Xperia phones as well?
dude we already have walkman and messaging app..and hopefully remaining apps will be available soon
and this topic is already being discussed in general section...
Could you add a link to the section about those 2 apps please?
go to this thread and see .. there is discussion going on about these new apps & how they work on Xperia 2011 model ICS versions.
go to this link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1723986
Thanks!
