Not sure what the update did though, anyone have any ideas?

When you say 'flashed it' did this wipe all settings back to factory?
Don't think it killed any settings.

Nope, it didn't wipe anything. It just messed up my custom application arrangement in the app draw, but that's nothing too bad.
the only thing I noticed so far is that it added BBC iPlayer... only for UK users though.
I haven't noticed no difference! No BBC iPlayer app either (am UK Based).
Would be good if they can get the current games out working with the hard keys. Hate using the virtual joypad etc..
My bad, just noticed I have the BBC iPlayer app after the update.

other than BBC iPlayer, it also improved the Xperia Play app. Before the update when you purchase a game using the Xperia Play app, the game will not be available in the app, you have to exist and open the game in the app drawer, but now it'll automatically be available using just Xperia Play app

Does anyone else have a problem with the youtube app, being that it doesn't choose to watch videos in HQ by default. For each video I find my self racing in the menu to choose watch in high quality before the video starts. If I don't do it quick enough, the play time toggle pops up and I end up fast forwarding to the end, and then having to go to the menu again.. Why can't youtube just play HQ by default on my beautiful screen?? Anyone else feel my pain?

Use the mobile website. It's better.
Hmmm my Vibrant seems to default to HQ. Wonder why? I did just get it yesterday.
If your on wifi it defaults to hq if your on data it uses lq.
It happens to me too. I just use www.m.youtube.com
Much better and you can see new videos from your subscriptions.

Go to settings, applications, then find market and uninstall the update..

Had the same problem.. this solved it.. later market updates again but this time it works fine...

Uninstalling the updates did fix, but now its just a stock 1.6 market.
Hope it updates itself soon!
It will, dont worry....

You could just have had a look at the_ahmadzais profile, he's started at least 6 threads across xda about it.
it took a few days for mine to update again afterwards but it just did it silently in the background with no prompting and now it works fine.
This fix works. Thank you.

Did they take out game gripper?
I just got the new psx4droid and was gnnause gamegripper which I thought I had but its not there so I guess I neverdownloaded it, but when I go to the market its not there either
Could it be cuz of the xperia play? I thought it was gonna usher in a nw age of gaming for android but its starting to look like its doing the opposite..
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA Premium App
Gamegripper as in the ROM finder app? I have it installed on my phone but you're right, it's no longer on the market. As for the n64 emulator, it was removed due to the dev taking it down to re-release it at a later time (after most bug fixes) due to negative feedback.
It does appear that Google is removing these apps due to piracy of ROMs, though.
EDIT: Spelt 'but" wrong. haha

Kind of hints that Play Station Suite is on the horizon.
According to this thread - http://www.reddit.com/r/Android/com..._to_rom_gripper_has_google_remotely/?sort=hot
The gripper was removed due to the ROM database being offline.
I actually know how to get some of those pulled apps...I can't say the site though because of the apps are warez.
you dont need an app to get roms..
The guy pulled the n64 app to give it an overhaul. Something lik 2 months b4 a release.
As far as Psx4droid goes.. I bought v2 a few days b4 it was pulled. I pulled my apk file b4 flashing a new rom B)

Good idea. My opinion is definitely invest in root explorer. It lets you navigate directly to the data/app folder and you can copy+paste the apk to your SD. Plus it has a remount rw/ro button that beats the hell out of using terminal emulator to do it.

I'am still waiting the update here in France. Nothing came out yet.
I hope that they improved the connectivity of the device with computer and other stuff related to boot sequence.
List the status on your country in this thread
Thanks
Update 28/05:
France / World: Available now
USA/UK : Available
Germany: Available
But still got the "missing app-shortcuts in drawer after reboot" issue
What is this missing app shortcuts ? which one exactly ?
Netherlands: No not yet
I've had this missing apps in drawer issue including after installing ADW. I have to force ADW to restart before it sees them. I think what is going on here is that there is a bug. Whenever an app is installed, the Xperia Play app gets called and finds out if it's a game with Xperia Play support for adding automatically into your list of games. It's very possible that it is keeping the apps from appearing in the launcher for whatever reason.

Don't care about that. just make sure you can select it and launch from the tab
having it in the xperia games menu is not a big deal
MTP app is charged of scanning the media and apps on your phone sometimes it act weird and need time to find out what is missing. it happened a lot when you purge data of MTP APP.
BTW people should not uninstall this program (it runs two service really important)

UK yes. I updated last night. Now on 2.3.3
My phone was rooted (bootloader LOCKED). I updated using the PC companion update thing. Followed the steps and all went smoothly.
Phone came back on, all settings remained in tact, launcherPro still set as default launcher, all apps and sync and data still the same, everything working.
Phone seems a little more responsive, added facebook features are neat (and probs more draining on my feeble battery).
Will have to see how battery life is.
BTW I'm on orange in the UK on contract.
Is there a way to go back down to 2.3.2 if we want?
Officially No!! If ur bootloader is unlocked u can flash older versions of the Rom with the flash tools

Sweet ! Also for you ladies and gents that don't know they brought it back But looks like it's only from within the device Play Store App, just touch the little circle with the line through it and its gone from your list of apps!
Removed 50 delinquent app's or so from mine!
Sorry if this is recent common knowledge I just was asking awhile ago and was told that this doesn't exist!

No! click that option and it never shows up in your Play Store history again, unless you install it again.
Each time you install an app or install a custom ROM with the ROM creators apps of choice it adds those apps to your play store list of app's! and they don't go away, and if you change ROMs and or try an app your list grows and grows whether you use the app or not it was always there in your list now you can clean those unused apps or unwanted apps out of your list so if you try a lot of ROMs you don't have to weed through all those app's!
I have 12 App's that I install and use, but 50 that I've tried and came on ROMs that I've tried now I have only 12 app's in my Play Store app history instead of 62 apps!
It is a list of apps that you have or had installed, so when you start from a new rom or a full wipe you can go to play store and look at the list to see which app you had installed earlier
