Ice Cream/Jelly Bean on Xperia Play - Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,

First of all Unlock your BootLoader http://unlockbootloader.sonymobile.com/

I went for gin2jellybean rom, does it matter if you flash the kernal via flashtool or cwm?

You can't flash a kernel onto the Play via CWM. You can use Flashtool or Fastboot, doesn't matter which (Flashtool is just the GUI, really)

I bought a second hand xperia play a few days ago and now looking to whizz things up a bit with a new Rom.
It's already been rooted but looks to have a stock Rom running
Here's the details
2.3.4
Kernal version [email protected]#10
Build number 4.0.2.A.0.42
Basically I'd like a properly established Rom without the bloatwear, every time I open task manager theres about 15 things open when I'm not using them

Sounds good, how do I install it in simple terms? Sorry if I sound like a orange :-S
Is it just a straight install or do I need to mess with kernels etc,
How's yours set up? Rom/Kernel etc
Help is much appreciated

Since it already has doomlord's kernel on it, it is rooted and the bootloader is unlocked, so you can probably use fastboot to install most roms. If you want compatibility for all the games, stick with GB. If you go to an ICS build, you'll likely have problems with certain games crashing, graphical errors, or gamepad not working.
I have no problems with the gamepad so far using DarkForest ICS.
I tried ICS++, I prefer Darkforest still. Probably sticking with it till the real ICS.
There are so graphical issues, but its pretty nice, no bloatware either.
If you already have a kernel with recovery, all you need to do is install the .zip file for the ROM through it.
Put the zip on your sd card, reboot the phone. While it boots and the light turns blue, press the back button.
I attempted to update the kernel earlier and bricked my phone, I the fastboot method and actually completed the flash, when I powered on the mobile it was just displaying a black screen,
After looking about I got the stock rom and flashed it, and its working again!
Now my mobile is on stock rom with stock kernel,
It displays a message saying theres a system update available but when I connect to pc I get some message saying the software cannot be installed because the device has unauthorized software on it, I also got this message before I flashed to the stock firmware so it seems that they know my mobile was rooted etc and cant update through their software...
Could someone kindly walk me through what I need to do to put doomkernel v13 and jokawild rom on,
Thanks

Flash stock ROM with flashtool, load fastboot, flash kernel image for DooMKernel, boot into recovery, clear cache, apply the update.zip for jokawild, done.
If you need more detailed instructions I'll write out a full guide later when I can use my home PC.
Actually, I was thinking of doing a full guide with pictures anyway.

[Q] Problem with Xperia Pro(MK16i)

I am sorry if this is in the wrong place, but i could not find a pro specific forum.
Anyway i have a potentially huge problem. I tried to install CyonagenMod 9 on my phone but now it just shows a black screen.
I had previously applied the official SE ICS update(build 4.1.b.0.431, i think), but it was really draining my battery and decided to try CyonagenMod.
Everything was going smoothly i unlocked the bootloader, then i flashed the boot.img and restarted the phone but nothing happened.
Is it because these instructions were meant for 2.3.x? Or something else?
And is my phone permanently damaged because of this?
Thanks for the help.

1.Does the flashing of the kernel went smoothly? Does it says "0 bad blocks encountered?" if not, maybe ur pc does not have some of the drivers needed to flash the kernel. This can be resolved by downloading and installing the appropriate drivers.

Yes kernel flashing wents smoothly 0 bad blocks.
I tried what you suggested and got my phone to work again. Then tried to install CM9 again, but got the same result as before.
There's a separate pro version for CM9. Are you flashing the arc version instead?

No i am sure it is the right one. The developmenname for pro is iyokan and it says that on the zip file i am using.

Oh, did you flash the Officiall CM9? The Kernel is Broken, use FXP CM9 Kernel.
Questions go in the Q&A section

hey guys i have a r800a rooted with a locked bootloader. i saw this ICS ROM and in the flashing instructions it didnt say anything about flashing a kernel. (i cant flash kernel cuz locked bootloader). so i figured that the rom is compatible with locked bootloaders, i followed the instructions and now the phone shows a sony ericsson logo then screen is black. ive tried to use flashtool to flash the stock firmware but it says im connected with USB debugging off :crying: plz help out
you cant flas it at all??
Wipe everything, then flash a gb rom. Cause ICS needs different kernel.

ICS and GB use different kernel. So if you flash ICS over stock kernel your phone will be dead.

Hi!
You don´t need to unlock your bootloader cause this Rom works with stock kernel. But you´ll need to root your phone and install CWM.
Oficial 4.0.3 is rootable, so you won´t have problems to root at all. It´s pretty easy and fast.
CWM you can install using the play store: search for cwm for xperia
then, download 4.2 or 4.2n Icebean Rom and be happy.
Best regards!
Thankyou very much!
I downloaded a auto install root from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1601038
I did this. I got stuck on SONY logo.
Im using stock kernel of ICS 4.0.4, rooted my phone by doomlord. I believe, the Ice Bean really require the ArcKnight kernel. Any idea why i got stucked? Can you advise???

Hi!
Did you solve your problem? 'I guess you did...'
I have heard of some users with 4.0.4 kernel having problems...
Honestly, I don´t know if the problem is related only to this stock kernel, but if you use 4.0.3 kernel or the new one released (587) you won´t have problems at all.
Another thing that SOMETIMES happens is to get stuck on SONY logo, but if you remove the battery of the phone, put it again and turn the phone on, then it works...
Wish u have solved before my post, but if u didn´t, try what I just wrote.

xperia play noob in need of help

hello all, a while back, about 3 months ago i tried to mod my xperia play r800x CDMA, i messed the phone up bad trying to install CM9, i was able to get a custom kernel installed before trying CM9, but i ended up trying to repair the phone using a stock rom i found for the r800x, my carrier is Appalachian Wireless, the FTF i used was for a verizon phone and it would not work on my carriers 3G after the flash, so i sent the phone off and my carrier tried to reflash their stock firmware and then 2 weeks later the phone came back and it still wouldnt work for my carriers service, so i ended up buying a new xperia play. im really wanting to get this phone overclocked. it feels really laggy, even with my 64gb sd card and link2sd installed and a 2gb partition for app installs, it feels just like it did with the stock 8gb card, to slow for use, cant play most of the games i have downloaded because of this, most of the apps take a while to load, and the OS just feels like its crawling, like when i try to swipe left and right on the screen, or open the apps drawer, im willing to pay for someone to take the time to help me get my phone pimped out with the best rom and the best kernel, im really not sure what the fastest rom would be for playing games, someone said i should stay with GB, but i have installed cm10.1 on my old nook color and its just about as fast as cm7.2, so i would really like to get a newer rom, like ICS. my boot loader is still locked on this phone, i need to pay to get this one unlocked like i did the first phone, so if anyone has any spare time to help me out i will donate some loot for your troubles

Any ideas on how to get xparts installed and working on my phones? I'm guessing this should be the next step in getting my phone fixed up? Or is it?

Well are you using 2.3.3? If so use doomkernel v3 for cdma. If your using 2.3.4 use doomkernel v14 it says for gsm but also works with cdma. If you use google sync then stick with 2.3.3 because it doesn't work with 2.3.4. You can also theme 2.3.3 with attacks themes. You can find all these under smokermans index thread.

do you know if i can run other roms like some ICS roms with the doomkernel v3 for CDMA ? or would i need to find a new custom kernel for newer roms ? after reading the past few weeks about the custom roms available for the r800x it seems that if you want to game you need to stick with GB roms, so i need to know if the doomkernel v3 will work with the stock GB rom or do i need to get a custom GB ROM and an older version of the DoomKernel ?

Doomkernel v3 cdma for gb should work. Don't mistake it with doomkernel v3 for ics because that one won't work. But also it depends what stock your using. If your using 2.3,4 then WiFi won't work with doom kernel v3 so check your android version in about phone.

Lupus wifi won't work with 2.3.3 buy it will work with 2.3.4. The problem is there's no google sync with 2.3.4 because Verizon messed it up.

Make a backup of your Rom with cwm. Then flash the stock 2.3.3 ftf with flashtool and exclude kernel. So thus on your messed up device first to see if it works. The kernel you said you downloaded is the same one I use. And what exactly is wrongg with the camera dies it say can't connect or does it freeze when you take a pic

Well I don't have Verizon I have Appalachian wireless and the last time I tried to flash a stock Verizon ftf it messed my phone up and my carrier couldn't fix it, it looks like it does something to the 3g, they couldn't get the phone to activate on their service, do you know how I can get a copy of my stock ROM from my carrier, I asked them and they said they don't release those to the public, and my cameras won't start it says sorry the application camera (process com.android.camera) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again.
