Hi There,
New owner of the Xperia Play here.
Loving the device thus far however I'd like to make one change if people can help me out.
Coming from the Desire HD I much prefer the swipe downwards to unlock method which is employed by Sense.
Is there any way for me to change the method of unlock on my Xperia Play?
Currently I haven't rooted my phone however I am looking at it as a possibility for the future and if this is a feature that requires root it will likely hasten that decision.
Thanks!

Hello guys,
I need some advice.
Recently I have flashed [ROM] Android Revolution HD™ 6.3.1 to my DHD.
Everything is more or less ok, BUT time zone detection became inaccurate.
F.E.
Currently I live in Lithuania and it is GMT +02:00, but phone automatically puts me to GMT +3 (Eastern Europe like Minsk ). Even I set things manually (untick "use network provided values) or with ClockSync, I have correct time next to battery indicator and +1 hour in Clock weather WIDGET
The interesting part is whatever change I do, on world clock section shows Kaunas (my city) +3 GMT does not matter what I do
I have not experienced this kinda problem neither with stock nor MIUI nor nitr0 sense ROMs.
At the moment I set my clock widges to show Talinn's time to show correct time on the main screen
Any help would be appreciated as I would like to keep clock changing its time automatically as I travel abroad.
p.s. could be it a problem with internal timezone database on the HTC Desire
just set it manualy?
Yes, the time zone is set manually. to +2 GMT but my clock widget still uses +3 GMT
Anyone has any ideas?

Is it related to DST (Daylight Saving Time) so that it is shifted an hour?
I live 5 miles from another time zone. The front of my house catches a tower in one zone, the cornfield behind catches the other. Set it manually. Problem solved.

That could be DST but does matter what I change it still shows Kaunas +3 GMT. (Estern Europe)
I think that phone does not have specific GMT for Vilnius, Lithuania (it could be in any other settings but not when changing main phones time). It might be missed it this Revolution HD ROM.
I just making presumptions as I have no other clue.
Reinstalled the rom and everything is fine

can any of the app developers for Sony Smartwatch (2) tell me if it's possible to add watch faces to the watch?
the digital one on the SW2 is really too simple, with just the time showing, it really needs at least the date to be added
Hmm...I think you missed there a several choices built in to the watch. Go to the settings app on the watch scroll down and you will see the option to change the watch faces. Some include the date
But they aren't digital.
exactly, there are 4 "analog" watch faces and 1 digital and i want a digital one with date
what i really want to know is, can only Sony add watch faces?
Other developers can, although I don't know if they can do the proper "always on" effect. There is an app in the store now which claims to add more faces, although it isn't yet "optimised" for the SW2. For me though it just crashes on startup.
It seems its built into the firmware ... watch faces on the market are just WApps, they burn far too much battery to be useful IMO.
If we can hack the firmware, i'm fairly sure we can make our own watch faces, but i've no idea where you can even download the firmware to start with, let alone modding it.
Im interested how the display works, does anyone have proper info on this ? It looks to me like the display has two parts to it. one being the monochrome traditional style LCD and the other being the colour LCD ... or am i barking up the wrong tree ?
it's a transflective LCD, without backlight in low light its hardly readable, but in direct sunlight it reflects light in a certain way so it gets readable again
inside you can ofcourse use the backlight
Hello
So does this mean there is no way to have custom watchfaces that are always on. Like on the pebble?

At this time, yes.
As an owner of one myself I'm not too bothered by that fact. I've actually found the black analog face to look quite nice on the device - and I'm picky about my watch faces. My only complaint about the watch faces though is the fact that the digital watch face does not include a date/day indicator - it just displays the time.
Thanks for your answer.
I find this a little disappointing.
Always found that the ability to change watchfaces makes a smartwatch so interesting (next to notificationsbof course)

i've tweeted something nice to @SonyXperia
any decent digital watch can show a time AND date, and a smartwatch can't?
Hi,
I was looking for the same thing: A digital watchface with at least the date. I was personally a bit disappointed with he analog watchface as is not nearly as sharp as on the picture that are used as publicity.
I found that the first smartwatch had such as watchface), but I'm not sure if this SW can be installed on the Smartwatch 2.
Me too....

I notice on the box it shows a digital clockface with day and date....this isn't available on the watch itself!! Good grief, In this respect its a step back from the old one!
This is when graphics win over functionality
Still you must admit that this is a beautiful watch compared to the first version plastic thingy...

We can have more watchfaces but we have to pay for.

There is a similar discussion going on on the Sony Forum, entiltled "SmartWatch 2 - shake to highlight?, battery life?" (as a fairly new user I can not post an external link here yet).

I'm almost pretty sure that the watch in that video is a 1st production demo which had that feature on it - After looking round other sites which have tested the watch after official release this feature was removed apparently due to battery life as the watch would always be on thus battery life would not be that long, I'd like to also point out that on the demo versions there were more clock faces and a walkman widget - The walkman widget as far as I'm led to believe had a pixelation problem and was removed although the packaging still has an image of the widget on it
I'm curious to see if these functionalities will be brought back in as they are clearly printed on the box of the watch.
I'm not sure this is possible or how it would be done, but if it could it'd probably end up being one of the more popular mods to date. There simply to decent way to achieve this currently and a native implementation would be incredible.

Sorry for the quirky topic title.
I am looking for an simple and light app to control my ringtone and notifications volume depenging on time. Im looking for simpliest and most resource light app to control it via user set profiles.
Prefering free or really cheap app options.
Any ideas? I remember that there was this huge app for android that controlled almost everything via time, gps, sunsets etc. but I dont need such complicated app.
I just want to automaticaly set loud ringtone volume between 9:00-21:00 and low volume between 21:00-9:00 and thats all.

Any other worth mentioning apps?
Lama 1989y interface and last update in 2014 is concerning.
I used Locale for years to set profiles and other settings based on time and/or location.
