If you have a locked bootloader then you can have a look at this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1116090
I used this method and now have rooted 2.3.3
I think I'm going to root this weekend. Has anyone from Rogers rooted and went to 2.3.3 rooted? I have an R800a model. I have to uninstall stuff all the time because it won’t use the SD card. I can't even open Google Talk when the memory is low.

He had rogers. Rooted it on 2.3.2 and then upgraded to 2.3.3 still retaining the root. Though i am not on rogers but this root method worked for me too.

If you flash UK generic rom as he did, the phone will look for a UK update and not the one for canada. So you will be able to update OTA.
Help please guys..
OK, so I did the PC update to 2.3.3. Didn't like it without root
So I used the above processes to get back to 2.3.2. All good but data dont appear to be working. Phone calls everything else is fine. Data is enabled but I never get G H or E in the status bar.
Any ideas? Do I neeed to get onto wifi to download carrier settings?!?!

You have a locked bootloader I'm assuming?
Not exactly sure why this is happening for you but this is exactly what would happen with my phone before I flashed to the uk generic firmware. I was thinking it had something to do with some removed SE software (was rooted). I would probably try starting fresh and flashing the Xperia_Play_Release_Generic_UK.ftf with flashtool, root with gingerbreak and then try ota update again. As soon as I did this OTA update went through without a problem. I'm just guessing that maybe you're running a carrier specific firmware vs the generic UK. I've flashed my phone multiple times with that firmware and flashtool and never had a problem (until I do something stupid and have to reflash ). Updates are not region specific but carrier/firmware(which is provided by your carrier so same thing ...) specific. This isn't your problem of course, just saying rogers firmware will only poll rogers for ota updates, the same with other providers firmware. You might want to take a look at this post though http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=14726176&postcount=41 hope it helps
thanks for responding...
thinking about it, I may have caused it. After doing the generic Uk flash. The last message said on the flash tool said to. enable debugging and reconnect.
I then pressed the root button, but it did not work. Stupid as this was for the x10 I think. Guessing maybe this changed something that causes the ota to fail.
I will just have to start from scratch.
thanks agin for your expert advice.

Hi Vikram,
In future please search the forums before you post again
1. If you rooted it to an X10a version of R2BA024 then it should be fine
2. Yes there are many... again, search the forum
3. Yes, there is a Rogers firmware available too if you want to go back (That's what I'm going to do once Rogers releases its branded 2.1)

Sorry buddy, typo
I meant you should have flashed it to X10a, which you did. So from what I've heard that should enable you to get updates, even if you're rooted.

THe problem is currently I have R2BA024 FW but i see that the latest is R2BA026. When i connect through SEUS and PC companion both r saying that I have latest software. When I clicked Repair i get an error saying that unable to download files. So was bit concerned. Do you have any info on why this could happen. Thanks in advance.
Just what I asked in the other forum. I am currantly at R2BA026, and my Rogers X10a reads X10i (Even if I followed each and every step correctly). Is there something wrong with X10i-X10a step? and I am not alone, there were many people reporting same thing.
I am very happy with R2BA026 but would flash with original Rogers FW if R2BA026 can't read my phone as X10a.
Please help!

I'm pretty sure 024 is stock Rogers. I used the flash tool to get to 026.

I have followed imugur's instructions as given in the first post but rather than changing my UK Generic version for the Nordic one (1234-8465) I went for the Global Generic (1232-9897)
I first tried the phone's own check for updates after rebooting but it found nothing, however, I then tried PC Companion and was immediately given the new software update (with a specific mention of multitouch support being added)
Going through the process now, PC Companion estimates a total time of 30 mins

Thanks for the insight
And what's the point of that?
The biggest advantage of flashing is to give us a faster phone and most important dualtouch.
By doing that way you can't get either.
And more. I'm not sure about this but on every custom roms you must have 435 flashed so that dualtouch work. Not sure trough.

Hi, I have a problem updating via ota. It fails after two bars are completed, after searching around I found that if you remove or even alter certain default apps the ota will fail. The only app that I've changed that would cause this is the home launcher (I installed the leaked latest 2.3.3 one).
I've search around and could not find the uk 2.3.2 launcher and trying to install the r800x 2.3.2 launcher fails. Can anyone upload or point me to where I can find the original launcher?
If you change system apps, it won't even let you start the OTA, it doesn't cause it to fail. Are you updating through 3g or wifi?

Through wifi, and it does let you start the update. I've seen others on this site claim the same thing and requested apps to replace.
Afaik it will start the update. It did with me. 3 blue dots and then a boot and a pop up saying it couldn't update. Then I flashed the 2.3.2 and updated successfully.
I had removed a lot of bloa that was the reason for not updating.. Now I've unlocked my bl so can't update OTA without bricking. Not sure if it will start at all, maybe Sony fixed it so you can't update the usual way anymore with an unlocked bl (pc companion, seus, OTA)?

My bootloader is still locked. My best guess is that it does version checks with each app as it's updating and then updates it. Other apps like my market place was updated from it. But when it gets to a app that we've changed then it fails because it's a different version or some type of other check fails on it. Btw, do you think you could upload your launcher for me?

@coreyon if you're rooted do a titanium backup and use flashtool to flash the uk generic .145. Then you could re-root, install your apps again and do the update. I'm not sure about root, you probably loose that with updating to 4.0.A.2.368?

Looks like I just got bit by this myself.. did you wind up having any luck? I'm looking for the previous 2.3.3 version of home, can't update without it unless I reflash from scratch which I'd rather avoid doing if possible..
Sigh and a few days ago I had a 2nd Play that I could have used to grab that file I need LOL DOH
I'm wondering, I also replace my home launcher before with the leaked one (the one w/horizontal mode) that I got from this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1195819 I even put a walkman MOD on my music player, but I don't delete or freeze any bloatware app.

Hmm.
I'm in UK and got the notification that there was a software update last night.
I decided to do it OTA so I could keep my root.
It downloaded fine, then went throught the steps to install.
After the final reboot I got 'update could not be applied'.
I am rooted, and I have frozen apps, but I unfroze them all before I did the OTA update. I have removed nothing else.
Any ideas?

No Dousan.

I only froze (not remove) a few bloat apps and made sure I unfroze them before update.
Try again. You may have lost your connection at one point or it may have corrupted. I don't have any frozen apps but I did remove the crap and my update when great.
Unfortunately no, same again.

Telsra has nothing to do with rolling out the OTA. It's now Motorola that is responsible for updating. Check the Motorola website and they still haven't got the ATRIX listed for ant updates yet. Try your phones settings update and there isn't anything else either.

I flashed the gingerbread sbf that was posted here a few days ago. It's less than impressive. I was considering rolling back to 2.2 but decided to give CM7 beta a crack and so far so good. The phone is like a rocketship now!
Is the bootloader open?
Thanks
I have the new Telstra update installed and would be willing to help find out. If someone could leave instructions in this thread, I'll have a crack at it in the morning.
Loaded gingerbread last night via WIFI and it took 2hrs to download. But everything is running really well now.

Update ! Fail
Hey Guys,
Attempted update numerous times. Failed every time.
Was rooted, but have unrooted.
I don't think there's anything that should stop it from updating to GB.
Any suggestions on a fix?
Anyone else find it crazy that Telstra finally gets its butt into gear just before ICS?
Rooted the new update with the application found here.
bootloader unlocked?
Anyone else not get their bootloader unlocked with the 2.3 update? I had to manually unlock mine, but in the end it was fairly easy using the guides on here.
Just that i heard/read that the bootloader was supposed to be unlocked with the 2.3 update, so thought i would ask.

No it was still locked. The Telstra update sbf was more a service sbf than a complete upgrade/wipe (I tested this by flashing the sbf with RSD lite, over the air as well as the Moto Updater - results all the same) - as in you dont lose any of your settings or apps, just updated the OS but doesnt do anything else.

I just used this guide:

and this to unlock bootloader:

you can tell if you are unlocked, as when you turn on the phone, it says "unlocked" in the top left. cant miss it.
