Hi I'm new here, just made an account 5 minutes ago.
I need help with getting CM7, CM9 or any other Custom Rom on my Xperia Play R800X VERIZON. I am Rooted, and have an Unlocked Bootloader. I was able to flash a UK version of the Xperia Play android version 2.3.3 Rom to make sure my bootloader was unlocked. The UK version was nice but it wasn't for me.
Just trying to get CM9 on my phone! but for some reason I'm having a really hard time doing so.
If anyone can help me or give me advice it would be much appreciated, I'm just trying to make use of my unlocked Bootloader! D:

Download the rom, extract the kernel then place the rom on the root of your sd card. flash kernel with flashtool, boot into recovery, WIPE EVERYTHING, flash rom and gapps. They have instructions on how to install on 99% of the threads.. good luck

Thanks for the reply!
Is there a "best" if you will, ROM or Kernel for the Xperia Play? I'm just trying to get the most out of my device. Also how do I get the gapps you mentioned?
I've done this a few times already but the main problem for me is: I get the kernel working, get into recovery, but when I got to apply/ flash the ROM I always seem to get and error message of some sort. Its very aggravating. I've been checking all over the internet for a solution but nothing so far, I've been awake for almost 48 hours now looking for a solution -.-
Thanks
There is a flashtool thread in development section.
And, the best ROM I love is Cola ROM. Has no Verizon Bloatware! Favorite thing about it

For some reason when I use Flashtool to flash a kernel it ends up giving me an error message & then makes my phone inactive, I then have to flash back to VERIZON stock Rom all over again. Any ideas??

I appreciate all the replies!
But for some reason NONE of this is working for me :/
I can flash a stock ftf file via flashtool no problem. I can enter recovery via X-parts app no problem. But when it comes to flashing the kernel via flashtool & unzipping the rom file via recovery they always report back an error message which leaves my phone completely useless or stuck on a boot loop which I then have to re flash stock rom to have a working phone again.
Hopefully that made sense lol, I have TeamViewer if anyone can help me thru that possibly idk I'm out of ideas...

To flash kernels, I use Fastboot instead of FlashTool. If course if you choose that route, you'll need to set up Fastboot.

Did you get the files downloaded? If so place them in a folder on your PC together.
Power your phone off. Then power on while holding the search button. You should see the blue LED on top of your phone which means you are in Fastboot mode.
Try that much and report back, then we can work on actually flashing the kernel.

Go to the folder where you put the Fastboot and driver files. On your PC, hold in shift and then right click. You should see the option to open a command prompt here. Try that.
I'm asking because I specifically flashed another boot.img for Cyanogenmod 10.
Now, what are the exact steps I need to take to go back to stock ICS?
Do I need to flash a stock boot.img first, with fastboot or something, and then flash a stock ICS zip from ClockWorkMod?
I'm not really experienced with any of this, I've flashed only about 3 times but none of which required me to install a different boot.img (isn't that the kernel file?).
Any help would be amazing!

Can this advanced stock kernel be flashed from within CWM as well as the ROM? I used something I believe was called fastboot for it.
And the kernel is indeed the boot.img then?

If you want to go back to stock, dont flash anything..
Now reverting back to stock is much easier as sony has released an official flashtool, just download the tool and latest firmware and flash it using the tool..
Once again dont flash any kernel or any rom if you want to completely go back to
stock.

Yep sure There are 2 versions of advanced stock kernel. One is flashed via fastboot and another one is flashed via CWM.
Then, on CM, Pac, Para which Rom are not based on stock one, boot.img is exactly the kernel

I tried this, but I couldn't get the official flash tool from Sony to work.
I apparently had to have a company when making an account to log in. Very odd.
I assumed this other flashtool made by probably xda developers did the same thing, but that one always gives me an error that I need to install the drivers first. Yet I've used this program before and back then I already went through all the hassle to install the correct drivers.
And now I don't know which drivers to install anymore.

You need to follow the instructions in sony's developer website for installing the flash tool..
Did you install the drivers using the drivers folder in flashtool??
And does your phone get recognized by the flashtool, I mean does it show your android version etc etc..??

First of all don't panic!
Grab any .55 firmware and install it with FlashTool, when installation is finished don't turn on the phone, disconnect it and hold Volume UP button so it boots in Fastboot mode, then in FlashTool click FLASH then select fastboot and press Flash Kernel > flash this one (Download) When it's over just turn on your device as normal and you will have .55 with Root & Recovery. Good Luck
BEFORE INSTALLING KERNEL UNRAR THE PACKAGE YOU NEED ONLY .elf File.
Just Select elite.elf when choosing kernel to flash.
Attached KERNEL is by RaymanFX.
Thank your for the quick answer.
Do i first need to unlock my bootloarder?

Hello @schpongo,
I'd Certainly Help You Out.
First of AlL, What You Need Is
1. Unlocked Bootloader - http://unlockbootloader.sonymobile.com/
2. Rooted Device - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2133063
3. Installing CWM Recovery. I prefer RecoverX - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1773227
And As My Friend In Above Post Said. Do Not Panic. It Takes Patience. And lots of waiting time.
Till one process is complete do not try to unplug or close anything. Its easy when you do things very calmly.
Ok Now for Available ROMS - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1950706

I Solved the Problem partly by using the flash tool to get back the stock os.
You can use the Flash tool to flash the boot.img file in the phone. It's really simple then manually doing it. I am on phone so can not provide you the link. Please use the search button on how to flash boot. Img using flash tool. Looping in boot is because the boot.img was not flashed properly. Use the flash tool to do it. I too had the same problem when I first flashed but soon found out the problem. Reply back if everything works..

CM 10 is a really good Rom with Stable recovery.
You can even download other ROMS of Build NOZOMI - (Code Name For Xperia S) eg Slim Bean build 5 Nozomi JB 4.2.2
And directly flash it from CWM recovery.

Yes, Unfortunately For This Purpose There is A Need for a little knowledge of Titanium Back Up.
It Will Bring All Your Settings Messages And Apps Back Without Any Modifications. Or loosing it.
The Reason : Every Time You Flash A New Rom
You Always ,
1 Whip Cache Partition
2 Cache /data /sysytem
3 Dalvik Cache
This Removes All The Apps.
Using this method, you don't have to flash .230 kernels or use towel root.
For Unlocked bootloader only.
for unlocking any xperia device bootloader, check this link.
Requirements
Sony Mobile Flasher by Androxyde
C650x Superuser Mod
Advanced stock kernel for KK 10.5.1.A.0.283
Install all necessary drivers for xperia zl like flashtool drivers and adb drivers.
Steps
Open "Sony mobile Flasher by Androxyde".
Connect the device to the system using fastboot mode. For this, turn off the device and connect it to the system using USB cable while pressing the volume up button.
Now in "Sony Mobile Flasher", click the flash button on the top left corner and select fastboot mode.
Now click "Select kernal to flash" button.
Next, browse for the "Advance_stock_kernel_for_KK_10.5.A.0.283" image file. For getting the image file, you need to extract the zip file you have downloaded.
And now click OK. The flashing will be finished in seconds.
Now you have a custom recovery for the Xperia ZL.
Next, copy the "C6506_10.5.1.A.0.283_Superuser_Mod.zip" into your Xperia ZL and reboot the device to recovery.
In recovery, Select the "Install" option and find the "C6506_10.5.1.A.0.283_Superuser_Mod.zip" file and flash it.
Now reboot your device, And you are rooted!
For "Sony Mobile Flasher" screenshots, Check this link.
If any problem occurs, ask me in the comment section.

Yes, as long as you keep one important thing in mind: this method is for unlocked BL only. Downgrading a kernel works for both locked and unlocked BL.

It's very simple to get the boot.img file from the .zip file. Just right click the file named "Advanced_stock kernel_for_KK_10.5.1.A.0.283.zip", and select the following option "7 - zip -> Extract here". Now you can find your .img file in the extracted location.

For rebooting your xperia device to recovery, First turn off the device, and then turn it on while repeatedly pressing the Volume up button until the recovery mode appears. I'm not sure about what kind of permissions you are talking about. Feel free to ask any doubts.

sorry I´m can´t understand. It is not verry complicated system, but I don´t know where or why I can´t.
thank you for time and patience...
You are great guys.

For having a custom recovery mode, your phone doesn't need to be rooted. For Recovery, flash the
"Advance_stock_kernel_for_KK_10.5.A.0.283" image file given in the main thread. Using "Flash tool by Androxyde" (Check main thread).
The screenshots for installation are given in main thread. After installing the recovery, Proceed with the rooting process.
If you can't follow the above method, try this method.
does this method work with build number 10.5.1.A.0.292?
