hello i have a Xperia play CDMA R800x LB and i was wanting an UPDATED rom list for the xperia play.
mainly because im bord of the stock UI and launchers use too much ram so if some one could point me in the right direction, i would greatly appriciate it. thanks

I've actually been wanting this too. From my research, the best you can find are GBTweaked, ICSTweaked, and DarkForest. I've tried GBTweaked, but have yet to try the others.
Gin2jellybean works also with locked
Bootloader
I want to try gin2jellybean but scared because my flash tool won't flash my phone.

Why you are scared. The Play cant be bricked. The only way is to take a hammer and ... BAM

Why a ROM? Why not just flash a theme? If your on Verizon 2.3.3 you can flash one of my theme's. Click the red link in my signature and have a look.
Problem is, he's got an R800X. I'm not sure if Gin2JB Works on it or not...
Since its Sony based rom then yes. If you have looked to ROM thread there are instructions for locked bloader.

Its more the fact that its harder to convert a Sony based ROM than it is to convert an AOSP ROM.

Get GBTweaked and GO Launcher EX, then use the included theme on it. I'm using it, and it runs beautifully. Leraeniesh did a great job with it, and he's constantly improving it. *Cough*It'd be nice to see a version updated for JB*Cough*

Where can I get the Gin2JB theme? I've looked, and have yet to find it. Go launcher is actually doing pretty good for me though.

Gin2JB is for GSM not CDMA. It wont work on the R800x.

Just curious if it's possible to put in a mod for notification toggles on the Verizon R800x, rooted, but with a locked bootloader running 2.3.3. I've come across a few for 2.3.4, but guessing those wouldn't be compatible.
Thanks for any responses.
I would love this too, but sadly after looking around everywhere, none are compatible with our R800x
I've been working on somthing like this. Expect it in the coming weeks

Below is a link to a thread that has some available, for the R800x. However if your running 2.3.3 they will not work.... but here is the link to the thread, i finally found it again.....

If someone knows how to modify them, I am sure they could work on 2.3.3. I however dont know how to do it.

Say I have an r800x that isn't connected I just use It like an ipod. If I flashed an ics rom to it but not a kernal would it still work with no radio or would it just brick my device?

No matter what is the phone you use, ICS always needs a new kernel, well, not actually, depends on what rom are we talking about. Not sure about what happens next... more info?

The kernel does a lot more than just manage data. I think someone needs to go find out what a kernel does.
Sent from my R800x using XDA
I'm wondering what the best ics rom for my unlocked R800x is. The reason I ask is because there are too many ics roms and kernals out there and it kinda feels like I'm trying to find a needle in a 1000 hectare wide field piled 10 miles high with hay. I understand that best is a subjective term so perhaps it would be nice if someone were to mention the pros and cons of the different ICS roms so users which are confused like me can make an informed decision. Links are always good and I do know how to flash roms and kernals to my phone so you don't need to go into detail about that. I thank everyone in advance.

Hey guys whats the best custom roms for a locked bootloader, i don't mean ICS roms, just what in your opinion on the best and why ie for gaming etc.
also has there ever been a free way to unlock the bootloader, i've heard some stuff about Omnius for Sony Ericsson, is it possible yet?
I'd say NXT v2 from. Think its v2. Might be 1.2 though lol
