something seems to be terribly wrong with this update...I've ftf'd and updated numerous times, and my phone never seems to synch with google...aren't the status bar and 3g icon supposed to turn green? I can't connect to gtalk also...
Xperia PLAY R800x Verizon Update Coming April 30th, 67mb
- Thread starter ozzmanj1
- Start date
I had the same problems when I was using this, ftf'ed back down, updated again still nothing. Did a factory reset in settings and recovery while on still nothing. I'm sticking with CM9

I am having the same issues as well. I've noticed that the Wi-Fi/3G icons no longer turn green for me either - which, from what I've read, means that there is not a consistent/dedicated connection to Google's servers. As such, Gmail and other Google applications are not auto-syncing (manual sync still seems to work). GTalk does not appear to be working for me either.

Baseband unknown? (if so, that's our current problem with trying to port R800i firmware)

I hate to hijack this thread for something else entirely, but has anyone tried using the mods and themes that were originally made for 2.3.4 for the other R800 phones? If not, guess what I'm about to do?
If anyone already has, you'd better warn me before I start, otherwise I'll be just another guinea pig!

You think they'll actually try to fix it with yet another update? You realize this is Verizon right?
I had to re-download the SD card data for Star Battalion, Asphalt 6, Crash Bandicoot, and The Sims 3, but they downloaded without a hitch. In fact, Asphalt 6 now works with the touchpads (although I think I still prefer the d-pad for that game
). I had Bruce Lee downloaded before the OTA update as well, but it was the only game where the SD card data did not have to be re-downloaded.On a different note, it does appear that Swype got an update after all. It finally got a feature that the beta has had for a bit now where you can slide your finger from the swype key to the letter c, x, v, or a, and it'll copy, cut, paste, or select all text (respectively).
Also, this was probably obvious to most of you, but as a reminder to any who might have forgotten (like I did when I tried playing Spyro earlier) you will have to reconvert your PS1 games if you used PSXperia 1.0. PSXperia 2.0 beta supports 2.3.4.

Tis why I made the joke
That soon lol
Yeah, i was checking to see if it was a baseband issue, but it's not
Has anybody tried flashing the lastest gbGapps to see if it fixes it?

Im calling little Red riding hood in the morning... their used to me calling with complaints and giving them a "respectable hard time"
Of course it probably wont solve anything (never has before) but at least the problem will start moving through their channels
Finally got my update working thanks to Rogue Leader's mini tutorial!

If SuperOneClick looks too complicated, or you have problems, like I did, use Flashtool's Rooting tool! Can't wait for Sony to give us some PS Store love!

In case anybody's curious about the GTalk problem:

I/GTalkService( 315): [GTalkConnection.24] (WORKER THREAD) update account status - done, took 89 msGlad it worked out.
I needed to redownload the data for some of the preloaded games (Star Battalion, Asphalt 6, Crash Bandicoot, and The Sims), but other than that everything seems to work. Also needed to restore my Backup of Asphalt 6, for some reason it wiped out my savegame. Works fine now.
When I get around to it I will need to reconvert my playstation games, for now I just deleted them, I have them backed up on my PC anyway.
I am not having any of the other issues anyone is describing, the only problem I have lately is my battery SUCKS but thats been going on for the past week or so.
Yupp, just tried flashing latest GB Gapps & talk is still broken.
Thanks Verizon. Well, back to I've tomorrow, with an update to CM9!!

6Definitive instructions how to update to 2.3.4 if you are Locked, Rooted, and the OTA Update will not complete for some reason. This will also save all your apps without individually backing them up.
1. Reboot your phone into CWM and take a nandroid backup of its current state.
2. Reboot and use flashtool to flash the stock 2.3.3 ROM
3. Reboot, activate Phone, upon activation it will start downloading 2.3.4, let it complete and when it does, choose "Remind me later"
4. Use SuperOneClick to root via Zergrush method.
5. Install 2.3.4 update.
6. Activate phone again, then go into Android Market and re-download Xperia CWM Auto Installer, Run it and install CWM.
7. Reboot Phone into CWM and go to "Restore", "Advanced Restore" , and then "Data".
8. Reboot Phone
When this is done, all your apps, contacts, etc will be back to how they were before the update, and you will have 2.3.4 rooted on your phone.3
SO I GOT AN ANSWER
Spoke to a very nice girl in tech support. Laid out the deal from the start, explained I already reimaged my phone, others have the same problem, etc. She told me that many people have called with the issue. Then she put me on hold for about 3 minutes while she did some research.
When she came back she said the latest word is that its an issue with Google's versions of their framework that they used in the update. I got the impression that the version of 2.3.4 that VZ customers were issued is not the same one that other R800 users got (as in it was custom made by VZ with Sony framework, probably why it doesn't have xLoud). She said that their engineers cannot fix it but they have been in touch with Google to try and find a solution. She could not give me any sort of ETA and apologized for the issue.
Thats prettymuch where I left it as the answer made sense and no reason to argue there. So they know about the issue, they are willing to fix it (if you believe them) but in theory they need Google to fix it. I can't believe no one tested this before releasing it, but then again it is Big Red.3Here's a link to the fota folder I found in /cache/recovery

I'm pretty sure Verizon wants nothing to do with CyanogenMod.
Sent from my phone, please excuse any Swypos.2Not sure if anyone already posted this or not, but it's 2.3.4:
http://www.droid-life.com/2012/04/3...-4-0-2-e-0-57-pops-phone-up-to-android-2-3-4/
And while that is an improvement, the lack of ICS and the Sony Frameworks required for PSStore makes it almost pointless anyway
Wondering if Verizon ever marketed the "Playstation Certified" part of the phone. If they did, then withheld those features, isn't the false advertisement?
