Sony ion is the best for the price !!! - Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion

So I have been an xda member since I got my Verizon HTC vogue touch liked it really opened up my eyes to the mobile device world. Owned many other devices another being the legendary HTC ego og but and the all had there strengths and weaknesses. But this ion beats them all as fad as price paid features included functionality and design. Making this the best money i ve spent on mobile device. In light of that I will be posting on xda several videos showing off the know and unknow features an capabilities of the device also I will be a very active in trying to help any accomplish anything that is possible with it.

Sorry I was confused didn't mean to offend you, the title of your video is "Android x86 3.2 got new google android market 3.4."
which confused me since the sony ion has a snapdragon cpu in it which has ARMv7 instruction set not x86 so I was confused why you would put android x86 on a device that has ARMv7 instructions rather than x86 instructions, .16 as in 3.4.16 or 3.9.16? There was no news in my reply just trying to figure out your video and what it was about. Sorry if I offended you.
at first I thought you were talking about the inverted black themed google play like here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1634469 but I guess I was confused

Okay that's no problem I understand just sounded like you were looking for something that I didn't say was in my video which is the case don't know why but for some reason the video you are describing and willing to is not the video that I posted for this thread video as I explained to the other gentleman this is merely stating how much I like the phone the things I've done to the phone showing and displaying them which includes a themed version of the play store that not only displays it in dark black and blue but also changes to the original market Icon which I and many others like better then the play store Icon but it still play store version 3.9 .1.6

[Q] New Android Market

I downloaded the New Android Market app and then downloaded a movie after trying to play the movies it says movie will not play on rooted device. Anyone else having this issue?
Google movies won't play on rooted devices. It knows that your device is rooted, and has to do with copyright protection. That's the way it is right now.

big brother knows... your right about the copyright protection. they dont want anyone using a rooted device because then google just became the "new pirate bay". you could buy the movie. copy it with TB or any back up. ask for a refund and have the movie for free.

[Q] Playstation Mobile on Verizon Xperia Play?

As some of you probably know, Sony released the excellent Playstation Mobile store to it's Playstation certified devices.
This includes the Xperia Play! (Super Crate Box anyone!)
http://www.playstation.com/psm/store/en.html
HOWEVER, the Verizon Xperia Play won't install it running 2.3.2 (needs 2.3.4). I believe there is an official (but buggy) 2.3.4 update that can be gotten OTA. However I purchased a blacklisted Xperia because I only wanted it for games and it will not do OTA updates.
My phone is rooted and has the X-parts recovery app installed for CFW and recovery.
What is my best option for getting this app on my phone?
THANKS!
I am on 2.3.3 Verizon R800x and it works fine for me... no issues

OK great, so it probably only needs 2.3.3.
So what is the best way to upgrade my rooted 2.3.2 to 2.3.3?
Thanks!
I'd use flashtool to flash the 2.3.3 update. Then use superoneclick to reroot your phone which still works on 2.3.3.
You can grab 2.3.3 from here (R800x is the verizon version which you maybe know but just making sure ):
http://xperiagamer.com/Stock-Roms/233-se-stock-firmware-for-flashtool.html
Just flash the 2.3.3 ftf file for r800x using flashtool.

Have you tried playing it in the bathroom or a waiting room using your laptop? Just not as good.
Hell even playing it on the couch sucks when playing on a laptop. Also not as good without a controller. Which yes you can use for you PC, but even less portable.
Is that worth $3.50 to be able to play on the Vita and the Xperia play for one price? Hells to the yes!
When i want to play SCB, i'll sit to my desktop. When i want to play it on my couch i'll just load Minecraft or Asphalt 7, because i dont need to play same game everywhere, all day 'n' night
Anyways i dont have credit card and we dont have prepaid cards there and also there arent any Google Play giftcards. And i hate warez also.
And i live in a country next to Germany lol.

That's great. Me either. That's why I play full scale games on my PC and small bite sized games like SCB on my Xperia Play.
So you want to judge me for spending $3.50 to play a game more suited to portables, on a portable? That's why you jumped in this thread? To attack me for buying a game on a portable that I could get for free on a PC?
Thanks for adding to the discussion.
LOL @ the ppl at XDA, srsly you should read that again. I just pointed that the game is free on PC and paid on portable devices.. That should be opposite. And you are talking like i punched you 10times to face and then said you are awful ******.
+ You asked, i answered = i dont care
Anyways to thread, isnt there any info from some creators that they will announce it for our Play?

When you begin a sentence pointing out something is fee with "LOL". That suggests you are laughing at someone for paying for it.
I didn't ask you anything, you just jumped in the the thread to LOL because the game is free on PC.
And nobody acted like you did what you described, that's ridiculous.
Maybe english is not your first language and you don't realise how it reads.
To be clear, I wasn't offended by what you said, just pointing out why the fact that is free on PC is irrelevant to my desire to play it on my Xperia. The game is amazing, it's a perfect fit for a portable and $3.50 is next to nothing. It's also the last type of game I care to play on a PC. The Xperia and the Vita is a perfect fit.

I think it asks for your google to access your google drive.

Well, it came built in with my One X.

Google does not 'allow' publishing to Play Store. They only scan the app for malicious code and publish. It's up to the users to decide if they want to give the app access to the features is requires or not. Google treats the users of their services like adults that can make their own choices alone, unlike Apple which treats them like children that are allowed to access only what Apple wants them to access.

Hi I'm a noob here and with anything android - so according to the noob video I found this thread, it's an old one so I hope that's ok.
I recently downloaded a free game called URBEX via amazon onto my kindle fire - the crippled android - anyway I really liked the game and browsing for something similar found what looks to be the very same game being sold by a chinese developer. The name of the game was only slightly different 'Arbex Escape' but the screenshots are of the URBEX game. Is it likely this Arbex is totally fake, I didn't see any point in downloading it to see but there are complaints about it not working on amazon and itunes where as URBEX has good reviews.
I looked up the so called developer of 'ARBEX' Zhiqiang Huang and Beth Ho, and it looks suspect to me but for all I know developers may allow resale remarketing of thier work somehow? I'ts made me look at the world of apps in a far more sinister light or am I just paranoid?
Doh, just seen it is an HTC thread, i'm not far off the mark though am I, I have got one of those too, and newly flashed and rooted, Very Many thanks to this site.

Updated Version of Google Now for LGOG, please?

I know all the devs are waiting for a Jelly Bean release for the Sprint LGOG, but I really think a huge feature we (non devs) all want is an updated Google Now. One that includes the sport teams feature. Sorry I do not really know what version it is. Please if there is anyone out there who could spend some time with this one, I think they would be cherished.

The version in the General section does not allow you to specify your sports teams. That means it is the same old buggy version that everyone's been running on ICS for a while.
