View 1 RepliesIt is possible to unlock the boot loader for certain releases of Sony Ericsson Android™ phone models from 2011 and onwards.
Please note that you may void the warranty of your phone if you unlock the boot loader. Sony Ericsson can then no longer guarantee the full functionality of your phone, and will not be responsible for any unsigned custom software being flashed to the phone after the boot loader is unlocked. Certain functions in your phone might cease to work, and performance might not be ideal. You might also damage your phone permanently. In the worst case, unlocking the boot loader will cause physical injuries or material damage, for example, due to the phone overheating.Certain content on your phone may also be inaccessible due to the removal of DRM security keys and the secure user data partition while unlocking the boot loader.Therefore, you should only unlock the boot loader of your phone if you are an advanced user with good knowledge of the technology and risks involved. We strongly recommend that standard users NOT unlock the boot loader, as it is not needed.

View 1 Replies View Relatedit looks like the sony play R800x wll get a android update starting monday but will it be android 4.0? likey not but it looks like it may be geting at lest android 2.3.6 or 2.3.7 on 4-30-2012 but still this is the 1st update in a long time [URL]
what you guys think will it be ICS can wait too find out
note how the update is olny 67mb but all so not that the 67mb is all so the biges update on there why the rest is 925kb up too 66mb so it makes you kind of wounder what this update is going too be about is it going to be ICS likey not the 67mb is likey too small for ICS so too me it looks like it be geting android 2.3.6 or 2.3.7
So I am on my third r800x in about 6 weeks. The first one refused to download the update no matter what was tried so it was replaced under warrenty. And the second was replaced because it was rebooting about 3 times a day. I finally got one that works for everything but connecting it to PC Companion. No matter what mix of modes I use it refuses to connect to PC companion. I cant figure out what is going on. (PC Companion ver:2.10.053 Prod:22.1) I downloaded PC Companion from the SEMC site because it was not on the SD card in the phone like the instructions said on the Website.
View 8 Replies View RelatedI actually have a huge problem updating. 2 days ago I updated my wife's Xperia r800x. Now I try to update my Xperia r800x and at first it just says update failed and I try to use pc companion and update service and they both say there is no available update for your phone (Over the air update also fails). Now when I try to connect to an over the air update it says that there was an error try back again later and about 8 hours later i try again and still no luck! Pc companion and Sony update service are still saying the same thing (no available update for your phone). I have already tried the repair phone option also and this is really frustrating! I am guessing this might be a verizon problem for the over the air option but as far as sony's side i feel like i shouldn't be having this problem. Did they pull the update?
View 5 Replies View RelatedOk no ICS can we at least get 2.3.4 fixed for R800x. The know issues are a big problem, STILL. Google, push notifications, wifi, 3g etc.

View 2 Replies View Relatedi decided to root my XPeria play and i didn't know what would be the outcome of it. Since im use to iOS i though it would install something similiar to Cydia. Well, it didn't and i checked if it had any updates and there was. So it did all of its download process and installing but it told me in the end ''Error: Update Failed''. and so i tried PC Companion and that didn't work either. So im in need of removing the ROOT out of my phone and installing a new software update on it. Currently, im on version 2.3.3.
View 7 Replies View RelatedToday I noticed a tiny x over my signal bars. I went to settings phone about and the settings give me a popup stating it crashed and I had one option [force close]. After a reboot a tiny display at the top right appeared " (No Service) "
I rebooted the phone several times, checked every setting the phone would allow (couldn't go to airplane mode -just info here) and still had the same problems.
Decided to go ahead and reset the phone (w/o wiping the SDcard). The inital screen came up to choose your language - no problem I clicked English The next screen was the cute green android wanting me to touch his tummy.... sigh No matter how many times I touch his tummy he just stays there. I have reset this phone previously with no issues at all.
Things I have tried:
Multiple reboots (20+) Removed the battery for 30 minutes and tried again Removed the SDcard and tried again Held down various combinations of buttons while rebooting Always it comes up with the droid wanting his tummy touched..
I downloaded PC Companion onto my computer so I could update my Xperia Play from 2.3.2 to 2.3.4. But the problem is when I connect my phone to my computer PC Companion says searching and then says no phone connected. When I try going to support center and go to how to connect to USB (which is an option that's suppose to get PC companion to notice my phone.). When the process is finished it still won't recognize the phone. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling PC companion but the same thing still happens. I also tried disconnecting and connecting my phone but the the same thing still happens.

I have downloaded Android SDK 3.2 and Google USB driver as mentioned in the instruction there but when I try to connect to my phone it says there is no suitable driver. I went to Device Manager and under "other devices" there is entry for "F1Boot Fastboot" for which I'm trying to install the driver.

There is the encryption key. This is not anything groundbreaking for the average user at this very second, but what it does mean to the average user, eventually, is that after Sony Ericsson stops releasing full version updates for our device (which is VERY likely to happen after the GB update scheduled for next month) The great people over at XDA developers will be able to provide us with full version updates that do not lack any features like they have to date. For example, when the 2.1 update was released, the devs at XDA got their hands on the code and released 2.2 for x10. However, the camera driver needed to be re-written for it to run at all...and even then it was not HD until recently because of a bootloader workaround. Now that the bootloader is wide opened we will see more updates, native wifi tethering, and if the hardware can handle it, we will see updates to full 4-point multitouch and 16million color displays.This also means we will be able to get full MIUI and CyanogenMOD support, and if you are really daring, you may even be able to make your x10 run WP7.Good things will come from this....development is still in the infant stages as this was just reported yesterday.
I been looking into unlocking my bootloader on my z3 (so i can get updates quicker), however on different threads I keep reading that DRM apps such track id or remote play will not function, is this true?
The main reason I brought my z3 (over an Iphone/samsung s6) was due to remote play.
Daughter got scammed on a Craigslist Touch Pro CDMA Alltel. It won't boot, just says Touch Pro for a few seconds then buzzes and reboots. It will do it forever.If I understand correctly, there a boot loader, then a rom. To do a non-OEM rom, you need to unlock the bootloader.Figured out how to get into boot loader mode and successfully flashed with latest ROM from HTC. Not clear if I put a new one on or reflashed the same one. No improvement. Now it says RAPH800 SPL-0.40.0000 MicroP-Hermann (etc).
I can't unlock the loader. Tried Raphael_CDMA_HSPL_037 and got an error 262. In fact I tried all the others, ReLocker, Raphael_CDMA_HSPL_025_MFG just for the heck of it with the same error.I'm assuming that if I can unlock it, then put MightyRom or something similar.Would there be some other issue? Like a hardware problem stoping a preboot hardware test? It won't power on to the SPL when the battery *isn't* in place, power supply on. Nor do the boot loop run with no battery. If it's in boot loader mode, you can pull the batter.
Does anyone know how to get this into bootloader mode? I can fix it from there.

View 4 Replies View RelatedAs I was talking on my Razr v3 yesterday, I experienced what I thought was just another typical of many AT&T dropped calls. However, upon further inspection, I noticed my phone had gone into boot loader mode for no apparent reason. It's done this on a couple of occasions. Once after it was accidentally dropped and another when I turned it off (then back on) because I was on a plane trip. I've been able to get it back to normal by just power cycling it until it booted.This time no such luck and the screen says the battery is 'too low to program' so if I wanted to attempt to flash it which is something I have NEVER done, I couldn't even do it due to the low battery. This is the only Razr I have and I don't know anyone that still uses one so I don't have one available to put my battery in to charge.Is this the only way to charge the battery? Is it not possible to charge it with the power off?

Trying to root my nexus 6 via mac. I have installed android file transfer.
I have the phone in boot loader mode. OEM on. USB debugging on.
I have Windows running on my mac too.
But no matter what I do, as soon as I put it in boot loader mode it isn't recognized.
Several flashing attempts failed. Now i'm stuck in the "bootloader usb init" screen.(but thats another problem i'm trying to get help with in another thread.)I started with a fully charged good battery, but after hours of trying to get this thing back into verizon by flashing it with VRZ_E815_01.1E.0R_PRIii09574_MONSTER_01.shx , i believe i'm outa juice, well the battery is.So I plugged it in the charger, it's still in the bootloader mode and on! Now.It's been about 4 hrs, but the phone still turns off after displaying 'hello moto' for 1 second(when charger is unplugged), which make it impossible to try fixing the flashing problem.
QUESTION:
How do i know that/if the battery is charging while in the bootloader state?.. or is this phone turning it self off, not a battery problem at all, but has something to do with the failed flashing... a dead phone?
Looks like now we have someone to blame, namely Verizon.
