Right so I have a Xperia Play GSM (R800i) with simlock (T-Mobile) and the build number is 4.0.2.A.0.42 and i`m wondering what I can do with it.
I have already rooted it with CWM so what else can I do with it? I would like to install CyanogenMod 7 but I know I can`t as I can`t unlock the bootloader
So what can I do?

you can flash Rom's based on Stock
I recomend this:
Gin2Ics - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1631144
TrueAncestor - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1595058
Xperia NXT - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1649368
Thanks for the info but what one is best for using the phone as only a Gaming Machine? I`m not planning on using the phone to make calls just to play Emulators on.
Also whats the best Kernel and whats the best way to flash the Kernel?
Try gamebread i believe it has all the emulators already great idea

Any idea what changes were from 2.3.3 to 2.3.4?
Advanced Stock and Darkforest ICS.
Unless you want to game correctly/heavily.
Then id suggest staying where you are.

That's basically my predicament. I really enjoyed ICS and pax's modified kernel, but you can't play PSXperia games on ICS. Back to stock ROM I went...
on my opinion , use 2.3.4 + sony's default kernel + some tweaks
as i experienced (( i've checked all kernels )) , all kernels have some bugs , just sony'y default kernel is #1 .
but you can try , if you want

And for best ROMs, I prefer CM9 by FXP. Touchpads work like they should (at least in Minecraft).

I have used ICS++ with DoomKernelv2 which was really nice. I moved to gin2ics since the Xperia Play is lacking RAM.
Hi everyone, I have a Xperia Play R800a
Firmware: Stock SE 4.0.2.A.0.42
Im from Costa Rica and in my country I use CDMA(3G) & GSM
I have unlocked the bootloader, so I want to install some Kernel or ROM.
Which Kernel or ROM can advise me?
I dont want to make a change and screw my device haha cuz I dont have money to buy another =P
Thanks.
Any rom/kernel for the r800a/at/i gsm xperia play.

Really? Nothing happens if I install something build from R800i or any other model?
And the GSM at the begin of the posts, dont gonna leave me without CDMA?
Thanks!
I don't think it matters. I used to have a stock r800at but I installed TrueAncestor v. 1.4b and it changed it to an r800i. I haven't seen any problems in the month I've used it!
Falsh the enhanced version of stock rom .58 and after flashing your r800a will become r800i. Then flash doom kernel through fastboot. Then search for any gingerbread rom and flash through CWM. Thats all.

Yep, they work perfectly in Latin America, just make sure to do a nandroid (full backup) and you should be fine, then you can test every ROM out there with a backup to rely on and roll back if necessary.
