Customized Back Plates - Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Since us Plays have fully removable back plates, I was wondering if anyone has found ones different from stock.
Like different finishing and colors.

Working on a couple now I got from a refurb shop in MD. I'll be sure to post when ready!

Hey guys, fernmar is pretty new and just made a mistake! I am sure most of us did at some point!
fernmar, please post this in the correct section, the Q&A Section is the best place to get good answers on this! You may also want to check out the Xperia Play Development Section to see if you can find an ICS thread that works good for your friends phone. Hope you find all the information you need!

Hey Techno, thanks for picking up for me . I just installed the xda app and now looking at my profile and im seeing this post, which I have no memory of posting, but i do have a friend with that phone. I'm responding now cause I think it seems rude to leave it hanging.

Cyanogenmod

I know there is a forum about this but its been locked, I love it its 10 times quicker then what I was forced into. But I was wondering if anyone knew on how to get mms working. Also I haven't been able to get Wi-Fi working but the video works. I'm not complaining, just wondering.

With the impending release of the MTD version of CM7 utilizing YAFFS2 format, CM9 will be a real possibility for the Epic, although probably a ways out. CM7 is coming along nicely, but still not officially supported, so I assume it will be a while. QBKing77 posted a video in General about the MTD/YAFFS2 file system and the benefits....More to come...
@Adam thanks, I wasn't trying to be rude just cause I'm new doesn't mean I'm a noob... ya know? I must have searched the wrong things. Thank you

To follow up on your original questions that adam didn't quite touch on...
Those items are notated in the CM7 thread in our dev forum as having known issues. You, as an well informed/read user of CM7, should go into flashing this rom knowing those listed features will not work 100%--if at all.
Ahh good to know, it works great. Do you possibly know wheb BETA will be relased?

ROM closest to HTC Sense 2.1 Android Version 2.3.4

Hey all, just rooted my new replacement droid inc2 and was wondering if anyone know a ROM that is close to or identical to the Sense 2.1, Android Version 2.3.4 I really like the mp3 player screen(while locked), lock screen, and all around look and feel.

Thanks
Thank you very much. I will try and let you know how it goes

Why no development for Ion

There is only one thread in the android development section for the ion. Whats stopping people from hacking this phone (other than the bootloader)
What's stopping you?

This has been answered before. What's stopping people from hacking this phone is that this phone is relatively new. It had just came out on the market for almost a month and the developers may have not been able to purchase the phone yet.

Just to add to this, the bootloader is almost everything and Sony fixed Gingerbread so that it cannot be exploited using the old fashion means, which means either we develop new means or wait for ICS that we have a new way to exploit.
It may also be that many devs are working on the new more powerful phones, any Sony is really a small underground community. I promise when I get an ion I'll start developing.

Another reason is that everyone is waiting for ICS, why bother to develop for GB when ICS is coming in like 1-2 month.
You'll start seeing custom roms as soon as we get CyanogenMod support from Fxp

I called the dev allocation line, they said definitely maybe we may or may not get some dev support.
I hate being the troll here but why, why ask this same question that others have and further bloat this forum, when no one knows when a Rom is coming.

Yes, I works great here also. Especially with a keyboard and mouse. A little laggy but what dobyou expect? It would Prolly run smoothly if it was the only Os on the phone, but that's above my pay grade.

My Play Is Dead

Hello xperia play community. My play seems to have died today. Im pretty sure its the flex cable but not 100 percent sure. The phone turns on and i can see a light coming from thescreen but nothing shows up on the screen. Anyways no matter what the problem i cant fix it as im in egypt and no easy access to the parts right now. When i get back to usa i might fix it or just move on to a new phone (depends on my dad). Anyways i wanted to say thanks to all the xperia play users who made the play better and last longer. I'll try too stay with you guys in the forums and help out but without my play im not sure if ill have the interest. Hopefully this is only a temporary good bye and not permanent.
Special Thanks to devs and helpful people @FXP - without our play would be dead long ago @CosmicDan - awesome kernel and roms
@wedgess - also awesome kernels and roms @cj360 - cdma support with slim bean one of my favorite roms
@paxChristos - i want arround when he was here but i know cdma would suck even more without him @fma965 - has plenty of great guides and helped when i first started with my play
@vokal1992 - gin2jellybean and a camera fix for cdma stock with custom kernels
@Spizzy01 - aurora rom and adreno booster and attempted to make cdma version
@DiKeJ - dixperia projects @DooMLoRD - all your great kernels
anybody else who i forgot to mention or was here before my time thanks and the rest of the community
Darks Team (You guys are Awesome)
@smokerman @darkharbinger81 @Lordomn @cyrusalmighty
I know this thread is kind of taking up space but i felt it necessary to thank everyone before i leave (maybe not for sure i might be back if i fix it though there seems to be too many problems with it to bother)
Sucks to here that bro. Hopefully you can fix it or find a cheapo replacement for it.
Damn...
If you are lucky, it's only flex damage. And if it still vibrate when powering on, there is still life in that Play.
You touch me guy... Credits for all amazing dev after ure play died... Wouaw

It was mainly my cousins faults. They never saw a phone like that before and thought it was awesome. So one of the little ones pulled it from me from one side while it was slid open by the screen and this caused some screen issues but it still worked then one of them through a TV remote at me and hit straight on (he had some pretty good aim lol) anyways its most likely only flex cable because it still turns on just nothing on the screen. Hopefully it'll be easy to fix

Not until I get back to USA which is 20 days away and even then I might not fix it because I was stuck on jellybean even when it was working because of Al's. So I'll either completely replace it or get a different phone

Awww maan, that's a bad information after my back home from summer-house . Wish you got this working again, any possible way like buying new one or fixing flex cable. Sh*t, bad news bad news.....Thanks for mentioning me, but still - pity like hell. But be sure, I didn't forget about so polite persons like you, maybe go to Poland not USA for some device, then we can meet?
And don't leave us - you have good knowledge, so any help here will be appreciated by community I hope .
Ow. No thanks for me? feeling left out dude. Well that's sucks that your play broke. I heard their are some pretty cheap plays on amazon when you get back to the states
Sent from my SCH-I545 using xda app-developers app
Sounds like some of my cousins, they went crazy when I first got my play.
I wish i still had my play but theres too many things wrong with it to fix. I got it checkd and als, flex were damaged and some other thing (maybe digitizer not sure) . So it looks like im just going to replace it with another phone
but i might also get another play because my dad and his freind have a store that they sell some phones and he has an r800x that has a little dent in the side. Other than that it works and if it doesnt sell i might just get it.
