ok guys i just picked up a play for att. sucks cause i have tmobile and wont get the 3/4g data. im almost always in wifi spots anyway so no big deal.
anyway i have already called att and got the phone sim unlocked. now if i think i understand this correctly this should be the order to follow. if you guys can confirm and provide latest links i would appreciate greatly.
1. sim unlock (done)
2. unlock bootloader (not yet)
3. root (not yet)
4. load rom (not yet)
correct??? did i miss anything? any preferred method on any of these? please advise.
thanks!!!
First of all, if you bought a xperia PLAY, you should probably post in the xperia PLAY forums.
Second of all, questions go in the Q & A forum.
To answer your question, that's pretty much the right order.

well somewhere along the line i bricked the phone.
i was able to install clockwork recovery. i then tried to install a rom. and it froze for well over 30 min. so now all i can get to is the se logo. cant boot into recovery on boot up at all. how do you check to see if you have an unlocked bootloader?
any chance of restarting over? loading the stock rom?

If you have unlocked bootloader since I can't figure it out of your posts, flash another kernel

Have you tried to use SE PC companion to restore phone to factory state?
From support start update and click repair phone.
That could bring your phone back to life.

That repair button didn't work?
For img flash you can use flashtool.
You don't need root or anything to use flashtool on your phone.
Just pick correct .ftf for your phone and flash it to the phone.
Do normal firmwares work on at&t's 4G version?

If you were rooted before you don't need to re-root unless you purposely unrooted it. IF you aren't rooted anymore superoneclick or the zergrush(however it's spelled) is the easiest. I'm 99% sure you don't have an unlocked bootloader though, so you have very few options. I'd say re-root if you need to and unlock your bootloader so you can flash flash and flash custom roms like crazy

It got bricked because you didn't unlock your bootloader.
1.Root your phone
2.Install Recovery
3.Unlock Bootloader
4.FINALLY!! you install a rom okay?
I was a noob too so it's okay now I'm a higher class noob.try flashing your ftf again.

well i got the phone back up and running. its now rooted again. i was doing some research. if i understand correctly the att version cannot have the bootloader unlocked. can anyone confirm this?
You need to pay Setool credits in order to unlock the bootloader. Unlocking the bootloader allows you to lose the sin lock as well, so you could have killed two birds with the same stone.

ya i just found the website. seems like thats the one everyone is sent to on this site.
im wondering now that im rooted if i can clean this stock rom up enough to use on a daily basis. i mean im using tmobile on the device so sharing internet would only be edge lol. i guess the only thing i really want ics for is that fact that its ics.
open the dial pad and use this code*#*#7378423#*#* . Then go to -> "Service Info" -> "Configuration".
If it says unlock bootloader = no, then you have to use the paid service, if yes, then you can do it for free yourself.

You just got the device.. Stop messing with it and return it to the store .. Exchange it before you do anymore damage. Simple.. Easy.... Requires no thought at all.

Well, I don't know that information, because I never use it. I only unlocked it by imei with a unlock code. I bought it used and in working conditions and then I sell it to a friend. After 3 days it began with the problem and we don't know how to solve.
At the begining I tought hardware problems with the power buttom... something like stun button, because I had a galaxy s2 with that problem, but it is not possible because I can put it in download mode and it do all the process with odin.

Thank you for your effort to help me but the exact problem im in is thus. j337r4 is frp locked to my old gmail that was hacked so i abandoned it and made a new one. I have yet to find a method of frp bypass that works on this one so i resorted to combination rom, however none of the combination roms for this exact model j3 that i can find have worked. they dont even flash, odin fails them after 10 sec and phone has new red message under normal download mode message that says "sw rev check fail" in red and that current binary is u4 but the only combination roms i can download free are u1 and u2 binary.

My frp says off when I go into download mode what does yours say? Try OEM unlocking the phone in Developers Option settings. Then let me know if you still have the issue.

"only official binarys are allowed to be flashed" because the bootloader locked. you must unlock the bootloader first.

mate my bootloader was unlocked.
i have 4 rooted phones i know how to unlock a bootloader.........................
it wasnt the BL it was the method provided that didnt work.
this a50 drove me to the point of being psychotic.
the phone is now gone due to almost being thrown at a brick wall.....
anyways in future someone should do a guide for the australian varient as none of these methods worked for it.... and believe me i tried all these methods even with overseas firmware etc. :good:
