Default [Q]Flash Image file for xperia play.

In the Motorola world we would flash an .sbf file using RSD lite.

What do we do for the Xperia play?

What is an .ftf file?

the .ftf is just the file type that IS the firmware and you flash it with the flashtool found around here, there is a whole tutorial on how to use the flasher

Is the ftf file for the rogers xperia play available? If we get a software update is that in the form of ftf and can we use the flash tool with the software update?

I'm not too sure if the Rogers FW is around yet but you would download them as a .ftf file or a bunch of .sin files which the flashtool can compile into an .ftf file
