Where did you buy the phone? Have you checked it supports the 3G frequencies used in your country?

i bought my phone in december 2013 and yes supports 3g because in other phones i have 3g

i found the solution
i have xperia play r800i (international) and i need r800a (America) but i cant found the firmware
i found 1 firmware but on flashtool is giving an error:
this is my problem in flashtool i press the ray/flash mode/ i select the firmware but dont charge information of the firmware and i dont know why
so its posible change r800i to r800a?

I asked where and not when . As where the phone came from usually decides which model the phone is.
But as you worked out, you have the wrong model. I don't think it's possible to change the r800i to the r800a as the frequency support is a hardware thing, not a software thing.

Bro..most of the people here own international models of Xperia Arc.May be that's the reason you didn't get a positive response.
Try Japanese forums..they might help

[Q] R800at 3.0.1.B.0.285 update

Hi, yesterday when i plugged my phone(R800at) to the PC, PC companion told me that there was an update for my phone (in that moment i had the 3.0.1.B.0.270 version in my phone, 2.3.3), so i thought that probalby was the 2.3.4 update for the r800at, after updating i search for the android version of my phone and it's 2.3.3 again but the build number is 3.0.1.B.0.285, so someone know the changes between the two versions??
Ty.
Same here i can't figure out what the difference is... Are you on AT&T also?
If you look at my r800at root questions post I lost root when I upgraded to .285 other then that I cant tell a difference.
So there isnt a way to update to 2.3.4?

Flash nordic generic rom.
I haven't noticed the changes either other than not being able to root.
Yes the only way to root now its to flash your device to another firmware, i used the r800a 2.3.4 and use the Doomlord zergrush to root it, and i happy with the change, i need test if the data speed change because now the phone only shows a H and not an H+.
One big difference for me is that this firmware seems to have solved a problem with my Xperia Play that's made it unusable as a phone for the past 2 months or so...about 1/2 the calls I make or receive, I could hear the caller, but they couldn't hear me. I tried switching to the North American generic firmware and that didn't solve the problem, but I saw this firmware yesterday and decided to give it a shot. I've been making calls all day long without any trouble. I wish I knew what they changed that fixed it. I miss 2.3.4...maybe the Nordic generic is worth trying?
I asked Sony about a changelog and was told there is no official changelog.....guess we are left to try out for ourselves.

AT, A, and I, have no hardware differences.
You can install any rom/kernel for any of them into your phone.
Id suggest first getting off 2.3.3, You wont be sorry.
You can flash the stock 2.3.4 r800i.

With Nordic Generic, were you able to get the H+? Have you tried North America Generic?
Actually, 4G is the only reason I'm still in 2.3.3.
It just showed H but the speeds were about the same. Which firmware are you referring to when you say north American generic?

Right but which build? far as I saw the .42 build was the generic nordic one....didn't see any specific north american generic.
I think this is probably the one he's referring to...this is the version I tried when I was having trouble with phone calls on AT&T's original stock build as well.

One thing I noticed is under about phone and software update. There is now a Network choice to download the phone updates over Wifi only or Wifi and mobile networks.
Before I could only do update via Mobile Network. I haven't had a chance to see what else is changed. Its a bummer it is not 2.3.4 though. This update was shown as certified in Dec of 2011. Took them long enough to push it out. I see no mention of any other certifications on the certification site that I saw the update on initially, ptcrb site. Sorry can't post link because I lack that ability.

Oh sorry for not replying, I just got lost and I didn´t remember where I wrote. You assumed a lot and your asumptions were right. I'm on r800a .42 and I sometimes have problems with data speeds. I made before and after tests with mobilespeedtest.com and geekaphone.com/mobile-speed-test and the results are more or less the same. Sometimes higher scores and sometimes lower...
I would like to return to at&t stock but the pros overweight the cons. I have root access, status switches in drop down status bar, changed my font, and even CWM!.
The best that could happen in the future is stock ICS for R800at...
facil - easy
change is that the camera shooting with auto focus, but nothing else, I have the same cell in Bolivia, but flashee with a version "a" and wonder if you are using 4g Keep it the original version of AT & T, but if not better using a firmware "a
el cambio es que la camara filma con auto focus, pero nada mas, yo tengo el mismo celular en bolivia, pero lo flashee con un version "a" y de maravilla, si usas 4g mantenelo la version original de at&t , pero si no mejor usa un firmware "a": Cool:

would love to have a fix for that issue on the R800at!!!
The only way i have found to fix it is to switch the radio to GSM only.
It just sucks because i have to switch back to WCDMA to use my data.

Problem Connect 3G (Arc S - ICS 4.0.4 - Stock Kernel)

guys, someone help me please! SE Arc S ICS 4.0.4 - Kernel Stock - baseband 77
I remember when I bought my ARC S, the version was Lt18A (mobile purchased in the Store Magazine Luiza, certified by Anatel, Brazil), working on 3G 850mhz/2100mhz! after updating the rom he went on to appear Lt18I, and for all I know, only works on 3G 900mhz/2100mhz. I think that's the problem, my phone stopped recognizing the 3G on 850MHz, which is available by Vivo in my area!
any way to change this? baseband, kernel, rom??

baseband, most likely.
or to be sure, flash the entire ROM that dedicated fot LT18A, because LT18i is the international version

[Q] Play 3G Problem

Hi, I have a rooted xperia play R800i (unlocked bootloader and no simlocks) with stock rom 3.0.1.A.0.145 and 3G works fine (baseband 21-22). When I flash any other stock rom with higher baseband (tried 36, 56, 64), I lose 3G signal. I only get 2G connections. When I go into settings->Networks->Mobile Networks->Network Operators, I see only 2G operators. I have a Singtel connection (2100 mhz). On all firmwares I have tried, service menu says I have UMTS_1 UMTs_8.
The reason I want to go to new baseband (atleast 36) is to have custom roms and ICS on the phone. Giving up 3g is not really an option.
I have tried flashing old baseband after flashing custom roms (using flashtool, exclude system and kernel and then copying libs manually from old firmware for baseband) but I keep getting unknown baseband in settings->about phone. There is no voice or data signal if I do this.
Any suggestions to fix this problem will be very helpful.

Did you tried baseband from neo l's firmware?
I'm using it for a long time now, so i know it works. Maybe it will work for you too

Exlude all, leave just baseband in flashtool, no extra files needed.

Installed stock ICS with Lupus, installed new baseband (-87), but the same problem persists. Voice + 2G works fine, but 3G operators not detected. Any other basebands I can try please?

Have you tried just the baseband for .79? Its a world FTF.
Here is the link from my collection:
http://d-h.st/Mbi
I also have a baseband that I am using its .80 baseband, I have the FTF and the flashable files for it as well. I was getting edge where I live, in the mountains, after flashing .80 I went to HSPA+. Big difference in reception strength and stability for me.
Let us know how it goes.
---------- Post added at 04:48 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:43 PM ----------
Here is the link for the FTF of the 80 baseband and the flashable zip of the 80 libs.
FTF:

Flashable Libs:
http://d-h.st/0oW
Just in case you want to test it out.
Thanks, will try it out tonight. Will post an update on the results.
Thanks.
Hi,
Tried both basebands and still the same problem. Flashed whole 79 ftf and no 3G, tried baseband 80 with libs, still only 2G. 3G works fine as soon as I install the old ftf. A strange pattern I have noticed that I would like to share. The only firmwares that have worked for me are the ones starting with 3.x.x.x, anything with 4.x.x gives the same problem. Here are the firmwares I could find and I tried them out and they work fine.
Xperia PLAY_3.0.1.A.0.145_UK
Xperia_Play_2.3.3_UK_Generic
These basebands havent worked for 3G
R800a_2.3.4_North America Generic.ftf
R800i_4.0.1.A.0.283_(1247-6212).ftf
R800i_4.0.2.A.0.42_Generic_UK.ftf
R800i_4.0.2.A.0.58_EnhancedV2.ftf
R800i_4.0.2.A.0.58_Generic Hong Kong Trade.ftf
R800i_4.0.2.A.0.62_(1253-4437).ftf
R800i_4.0.A.2.368_World.ftf
MT25i_4.1.B.0.631 INDONESIA_SONY MOBILE by wewenk.ftf
R800i_-80_Baseband_GSM.ftf
R800_4.0.2.A.0.79.ftf
Are there any 3.x.x firmwares available I haven't tried which have basebands which might work with ICS? That would solve my problem I am guessing.
Thanks.
See if there is dome ftf you didn't try at

And quick question, did you try to install doomlord's ics kernel and some stock-based ics rom on firware you have working 3g? (i mean, is it working if you DON'T flash newer firmware?)
And also, are apn settings same on working 3.x.x firmware and on any other rom you have only 2g (check them manualy, write on paper if you have to)

Yes have tried installing DoomKernel ICS with stock ICS over 3.0.1.A.0.145, I get no network detection and get an Unknown Baseband in about phone. Also tried copying ouver the 7 lib files from the working rom into this setup but same error.
APN settings are the same across firmwares.

Damn, you are really unlucky...
Even i am without ideas what you can do...
Maybe to try cm9 or cm10 roms...
Most desperate idea:
Do you have some friend who have newer rooted Xperia phone with ics or jb on it, and steal baseband libs from him
