[REQUEST] recovery/repair image Xperia Play - Xperia Play General

can someone who has not unlocked their bootloader go through the "repair" process in either one of the software updaters located here
http://www.sonyericsson.com/cws/sup...teyourproductsoftware/xperia-play?cc=gb&lc=en
when it downloads the repair image for your phone it will stores it on your computer probably somewhere in this folder
C:\Program Files\Sony Ericsson
or
start>run> %temp%
the file will be ~100mb or more
if someone can download that file and upload it to any media shareing website it would be greatly appreciated
I and we will need this for custom roms, root, and recovery if something goes afoot.
many thanks,
grant
EDIT: just an FYI this is different than the system.img /system dump that is floating around the recovery contains the boot.img, nv.img radio.img and among other things

hi johnsongrantr i just bought an xperia play sim free locked bootloader. I am new to the android front (newbie) been an iphone user for a while, if you explain what i need to do to get the recovery img i am more than happy to help
regards
Jason

C:\ProgramData\Sony Ericsson\Update Engine\db\13740270\blob_fs
is where it will be and it will be called something like: FILE_277919341 and will be 157MB
Just done it but that file cant be opened even with magiciso like other roms can.
there is this as well:

interestingly the above software tells you to press the back key before plugging in the usb!

thanks, if you or anyone else is following along at home, universal extractor http://legroom.net/software/uniextract can extract *most* archive files unless it is heavily encrypted... then more digging I must do.
BUT... if that works, how to inject root access to a already compiled boot.img + ram disk have a look at this guide
http://android-dls.com/wiki/index.php?title=HOWTO:_Unpack,_Edit,_and_Re-Pack_Boot_Images
read the whole article but pay attention to the "alternative method" where you modify default.prop and change the line ro.secure=1 to ro.secure=0
that's basically all there is to it. Lets hope we can cleanly extract the contents of that file shall we

Already tried that as well bud just shows me a log file and thats it.
Need to rename it to use uniextract but nothing is accepted it fails on all
I litterly have no idea how we get the image file short of jtagging it!
how did they get it for the arc?

well I'll just have to look at it then
shouldn't need jtagging, might be able to get an unsecure x10/or arc boot.img to boot enough to pull the info we need, but I don't want to even start messing with that junk yet
was this before or after the source for the arc was released?
http://developer.sonyericsson.com/w.../download/so-01cgingerbread30d279?cc=gb&lc=en
they might have just compiled from source.... sadly, the play doesn't have it's source out yet
EDIT:x10/ or arc

not sure been following the arc threads for a while they havent rooted yet but they are leaps ahead of us we cant make stage 1.
cant get an answer yet as to how they got it, ive posted but waiting on a reply

If you go to "downloads" on top of that page, the sourecode for Gingerbread Xperia (Arc AND Play) are there, the one you link is not Arc. Seems all Xperia (new) is compiled from same source.

Androsign

I remember hearing that we need something signed when being flashed to our phone but I have not heard of anyone using this tool that I came across when looking for ROM cooking information.
Has anyone given androsign a shot yet to try and sign the zip files that people were trying to flash using the goldcard?
I'm not sure if this is what needs to be signed or if it were the .img file itself but maybe its worth a try?
I found this in the HTC Hero: G2 Touch section. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=551711
The Androsign stuff is in the Tools section near the bottom of the post.
Lox_Dev said:
Androsign script (linux)
I wrote that androsign script to quick sign zip files. Just put it in your <SDK>/tools folder, then chmod +x. If you have put the tools folder in your PATH, you can call it directly like this:
androsign /dev/folder1/folder2/update.zip (or any zip/apk file)
It will output an update-signed.zip (or app-signed.apk etc) in the same folder than original file was in.

Check out the new Root Thread....There you will find all the Devs and what they are trying and have tried and so on
I'll look into androsign. I'm assuming it uses the engineering key, because as far as I know HTC's privatekey hasn't been broken.
Thanks!
Androsign uses the engineering bootloader key. We don't have an engineering bootloader.

[MOD] UK Bluetooth keyboard on US firmware

Well it seems yoshitweaky has solved the problem it has worked on his Xoom and mine so it seems we have a working solution.
This is the instructions from their post on page 3 please find the post and thank yoshitweaky if you are using this method.
Ok I got everything working needed a bit of a mod to the original keylayout for the keyboard as I had to add some more keymaps back in to support all the keys.
so you are welcome to test, please backup your files first!
I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR YOU BREAKING ANYTHING, THIS IS YOUR CHOICE. Backup your files and it'll be fine, better still do a nand, its probably time anyway
You'll need root access to try this
the installation it's really simple:
1. With a root explorer, go into /system/usr/keychars
2. Make a backup copy of the file Generic.kcm
3. copy the new Generic.kcm.txt into the mentioned directory
4. Rename Generic.kcm.txt into Generic.kcm
5. Fix permission read / all, write / proprietary, exec / none.
6. go into /system/usr/keylayout
7. Make a backup copy of Vendor_22b8_Product_093d.kl
8. copy in the new Vendor_22b8_Product_093d.kl.txt
9. Rename Vendor_22b8_Product_093d.kl.txt to Vendor_22b8_Product_093d.kl
10. Fix permission read / all, write / proprietary, exec / none. (1st column = 3, 2nd = top 1 ticked , 3rd = none ticked)
rember
Generic.kcm goes in system/user/keychars
Vendor_22b8_Product_093d.kl goes in system/user/keylayout

AFAIK the UK moto stock image (3.0.1) doesnt have the UK layout in it... that was suppose to be fixed in moto's 3.1 image... so i imagine it might be worth waiting to grab some files from that?
I am massively interested in getting this working on my US 3.2 image though

[DEV] AndroidLib.dll Expansion Project

Description:
The AndroidLib Expansion Project was created to bring support of more Android devices to my AndroidLib.dll project I'm working on. This project is a Windows executable (compiled batch script) that you will run on your computer with your Android device connected. This will NOT run automatically; it will give you a prompt to run after opening.
The main purpose of this project is to collect data about new phones for AndroidLib.dll, not about your specific phone, but about how it transfers specific data through it's shell and through the Android Debug Bridge (ADB), and more importantly, how that output is formatted.
This information will not be shared with anyone other than myself, and will only be used for further developing AndroidLib.dll to support many more Android devices than it currently does.
Source Code is available under "Download Info"
What it does:
Starts an Adb server
Checks Device List
Checks Device Type
Checks Device Serial (only for unique .zip filename)
Checks For SU
Checks UID
Checks BusyBox
Checks File System
Checks Battery Statistics
Checks Running Processes
Checks /data/system/packages.xml for existance
Checks Build Properties
Checks Shell Environment
Creates Zip of Data Above
Opens Upload Form in Browser After Exiting
NOTE: Does NOT Upload Automatically
Usage:
Download the Windows Executable below and run from any directory on your computer with your Android device connected.
Requirements:
Windows Computer
Android device to test

Check the Desktop folder in %USERPROFILE%\Desktop as well instead of just the graphical desktop. I have tested it working on 5 different computers here...

Yeah, you can, if you send me the link to it.. but I just wrote that upload script so it would just go straight to my server.. Upload it to mediafire if you would like.
I realize now that this exe may not have worked correctly. I've had 3 reports now of no zip being created on the desktop. I am working to solve this issue, as you see in the source.. it really has no reason not to be creating on the desktop.
I'll be glad to help, if only it created a zip file for me to upload.
EDIT: I checked the %USERPROFILE%/Desktop as well as running a search for anything containing "androidlib" in C:\Users... nothing.
2 things.
1st, it won't make a zip file for anyone that doesn't have 7zip or the required folder structure (there is no standard environment variable of %myfiles% - just use %temp% instead), and it's assuming subfolders exist for output of the adb commands.
2nd, why is it an exe file when it's a batch file? Please link the bat file instead of an exe. I'm running the bat file I copied and pasted from the source and it runs just fine.

Well, if you knew who I was or looked at anything else I have written, you'd realize that I know what I'm doing, and that I would not assume everyone has the standard environment variable %MYFILES% or have 7zip installed. I am assuming in this program, actually, that the end user does NOT have the android sdk set up (or in their path) and does NOT have any 7 zip binaries. I created a self extracting exe out of my batch file that includes adb.exe, the 2 required adb dlls, and the 7 zip binary, all in the global variable %MYFILES% (aTemp folder in %temp%). It works fine. Just need to figure out why it creates a zip on all of my computers, and not any of yours. I appreciate the feedback though.

Apologies if that's how I came across - it wasn't intended. I've just uploaded a couple of zip files for you.
Thank you to everyone who has uploaded a zip so far! This is really helping development on AndroidLib. I am still accepting more uploads, so if you feel like helping develpment of AndroidLib, feel free to download and run the exe! I'm needing a few more Samsung devices in particular, those seem to vary in output between themselves.

Flash Player install x86

I still have not bought the Razr I (but I'm getting close to) and the flash player missing for me it is a problem.
So I started digging for more info and now I have extracted from the Orange San Diego ROM (supk_eng.release.mfld_pr2.BKB4OUK.devr3.i2847)
the files needed to try to see if they work on the Razr (same x86 platform).
So you need only to copy the attached 2 files like this
into
/libs/plugins/com.adobe.flashplayer goes libflashplayer.so (from the zip)
and into
/app goes FlashPlayer.apk
Anyone want to try and post the result ?

I guess it means system/app and system/libs
the /* directories are in RAM (except data, cache, system and the radio dir) and if you add a file in it, it will be deleted at reboot
(Don't have a razr i, but I may be buying one in the next days)
But to access system/app and system/libs you need Root Explorer which means... rooting the Razr i. I'm not against root at all but it would be nice if there was also a possibility to this without root.
Am following this thread closely...... would love to see flash on this and then would probably get one myself. Have one temporarily at the moment (but can't root it as it's not mine) so if there is anything you need me to try that doesn't require rooting let me know.
First i need to say:
bad description...
and the link is dead cause the page has db errors...
so i guess its /system/lib instead of /system/libs and i personally dont have a plugins folder, so i created one and put in the so file...
pushed the flashplayer.apk to the /system/app folder and rebootet...
seems to be installed, though, flash isnt working...
tried with this app:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.onlinetvrecorder.SchoenerFernsehen2
and it tells me i have 11.0.1 installed but it doesnt work, shows me the icon "no plugin available"...
so what now?

and the link is dead cause the page has db errors...
so i guess its /system/lib instead of /system/libs and i personally dont have a plugins folder, so i created one and put in the so file...
pushed the flashplayer.apk to the /system/app folder and rebootet...
seems to be installed, though, flash isnt working...
tried with this app:
and it tells me i have 11.0.1 installed but it doesn't work, shows me the icon "no plugin available"...
so what now?

I agree - the description is wrong. So are the files attached. You need the files from the “San Diego system dump 4.0.4″ and they need to go in the following paths:
/system/lib/plugins/com.adobe.flashplayer/libflashplayer.so
/system/app/FlashPlayer.apk
I got it working by moving libflashplayer.so first, then FlashPlayer.apk, then rebooted. Unfortunately it only works in the stock browser.
Here is the files needed from the “San Diego system dump 4.0.4″:
dl.dropbox.com/u/19117372/RAZRI_flash.zip
still not working for me guys...
Any more progress on this?

Is there any way to create an installation package with the two files and install it without root the phone?
Please some developers can gently answer ?
The lack of flashplayer is the only bad point of my Razr i

**************************************************************************
So just to confirm I understood correctly:
1) root phone so have access to system folders
2) Replace /system/lib/plugins/com.adobe.flashplayer/libflashplayer.so with file from “San Diego system dump 4.0.4″:
dl.dropbox.com/u/19117372/RAZRI_flash.zip
3) Replace /system/app/FlashPlayer.apk with file from “San Diego system dump 4.0.4″:
dl.dropbox.com/u/19117372/RAZRI_flash.zip
4) Reboot phone
5) Flash should work on Rarz i stock browser?
Let me know, Thanks

I'm a bit of a noob at this, so excuse me if I'm wrong BUT
You shouldn't need to root the phone to get access too the system folder. I can get into the exact location you mentioned by using File Manager? (on an unrooted phone)

I tried to copy files with x-plore but I can not... I can see and go inside the path but I can't create/ modify files. Is there any way to do it without root the phone? Did you try to copy the files? If with a positive result let us know which file explorer are you using.

I am pretty sure that you can only modify files in that path with root access.
Just root your phone, you don't lose warranty by that, as you can always unroot.

But you'll have to unlock the phone first do you not? Motorola will know the phone has been unlocked as they provide the code required. Is there a way to root without unlocking the boot loader?

If you CANNOT unlock your bootloader, use this x86 version of motofail2go by Dan Rosenberg: http://174.132.194.66/~batakang//ftp...l2go_razri.zip
