I bought my X'PLAY (Android 2.3.2 build number .184) when i travelled to HK few weeks ago since it hasn't reached my country till now..
i got problem with my PLAY, everytime after playing games (xperia play ones especially) for about 10 - 15 mins it crash the android system.. the screen freeze, nothing happened when touching it.. touchpad game n the power button as well did not function. Then i flashed my firware using SEUS, still could not solve the problem. I have to remove the battery to make everything normal again.
Few days later I flashed n changed my firmware to UK region via wotanserver.com (android 2.3.2 build number .184).. this time it helped a bit, the screen did not freeze anymore after playing games for about 15 mins but the touchpad game n the power button issues still occur.. i could not shut down my phone but the touch screen could function well.. Also sd-card could not be recognized by computer when i connected it. Again, i have to remove the battery to make everything works normal
After android 2.3.3 released, i updated my PLAY via SEUS hoping it would fix my problems.. but it even get worse, screen freeze.. touchpad game n power button did not function just like the very first time.
No choice, have to remove the battery to make it normal again.
Now i downgrade to 2.3.2 UK region using flashtool.. at least the screen still work after playing games for hours, but have to remove the battery to make the sd card worked when connected to computer.
Anyone with the same issues? i got frustated... Help guys!!
I had the exact same problem with my old play. You got a defective play... The problem is isolated and few since no one else has that issue. With me it was only when running intense games like rainbow 6 and other hd games. I suggest you return it for another asap... My carrier (rogers) sent me a new one. If you don't have warranty... Since you did get it in hk... I suggest you get a quickboot App from the market so you can reboot it without taking out the battery.

Thanks for the advice.. i installed the quickboot already, but it need root access.. meanwhile my PLAY has not been rooted. I ever tried to root with gingerbreak in the past but always failed.
Root it when it is the generic uk 2.3.2. And then upgrade it to 2.3.3 what problems were you having with rooting
Sent from my R800a using XDA App
Finally successful rooting my PLAY after much... much effort working on it. I don't think i want to update it to 2.3.3 since my screen will get freeze as a result of playing games too long.. Better use the current 2.3.2, my screen will still work (sometimes it happens to me a thought; is it a firmware issue or faulty device issue why my PLAY screen will get freeze after playing games if i use other firmware exclude 2.3.2).
Anyway really appreciate for the info about quickboot app, now i don't need to remove my battery anymore Thanks bro
I'm pretty sure it's your device that is faulty.. I'm not 100 percent sure but I believe it is overheating when you run games that require more power. That is why all the functions on the phone stops working. Should really send it to sony to repair or replace if possible.
Sent from my R800a using XDA App
On my new play that they replaced I have not ran into that problem at all... I played rainbow 6 for 6to7 hrs straight with no problems...
Sent from my R800a using XDA App
Got to be patient to get my PLAY repaired in sony service center for it hasn't been launched in my country yet. Rumor says a month or two later the PLAY will launched here
You should contact the person who sold it to you... I don't think it would be under warranty in the country that you are in.

This is a tip i just found for modern combat 2 on the xperia play.., this is using a genuine copy of modern combat 2 on a stock xperia play ...
I bought the game this morning went to play it and all i got was FORCE CLOSE (process com.gameloft.android.GAND.GloftBPHP.ML) GRRRRRRR! So after trawling through google for 30mins i found some dude who had a way to get it working...
1..open the game with pad slid in (in the apps menu) it might work with the pad slid out too
2.. then youll get force close blah blah blah...click close or ok or whatever
3.. now hold on your home key so recent apps appear on screen
4.. now click modern combat 2 in recent apps and it works!!!
hope this helps somebody cos i was pissed off when mine didnt work, thanks goto some dude on a random forum i tripped up on.
if this is old news delete this thread BUT if its useful to ya, gimme a HELL YEAH!!!
Hell yeah ? !
hell yeah? its a pretty inexcusable workaround to a problem that shouldn't exist. after paying for something that was supposed to be tailor made to my device i expect it to work properly without having to resort to some bogus workaround.
plan to be more careful when purchasing gameloft games in the future because the response they gave me was more of the same, and that is just weak IMHO.
All mine work just fine
yeah i agree it should work without the need of this, but itll do for me till they have a proper fix, maybe theyll patch the game. it might be my end because i installed some bogus versions of the game first that i later uninstalled but maybe they might have upset it abit lol...
anyway man just done 30mins multiplayer on capture the flag with about 8-10 in the server and was surprised how good it was, oh i had to register via my laptop with gameloft live cos trying to register in the game caused FORCE CLOSE again, but once registered u can log in and it all works good
see u on the battlefield soldiers ill stab u all in the boob
I had this problem, i kicked up a fuss and gameloft gave me an extra game for free!
Sent from my R800i using XDA Premium App
I had the same problem and this does works (HI5!) however I agree that its not acceptable on the part of Gameloft. This game was advertised on this device and it was in the Xperia Play app, clearly its just a minor bug that could have caused havoc, and I have also told Gameloft what I think (hopefully a free game!).
Hopefully I will see you guys playing online.

But good idea for posting it here it will get seen more and be more helpful to people having this problem.
I noticed it force closes when the os does something like say you press the home button it will force close and you will have to start again from your last save which is annoying. This problem must be down to a conflict with the SE software as problems still exist with phone rooted and debranded.
Auauaua, great!!!!
Working on motorola Xoom now!
This is great. I had no idea.
works for me. Pressed the thanks button. Gameloft said that they will give me a free game as they don't know how to fix it.
Worked for me too!

Same problem on SGS2!
I was having the same problem on my Samsung Galaxy S2 and (much to my surprise!) this work around actually WORKS!
Just debating whether to accept the free game they've offered me and carry on playing! Its really bad that Gameloft are allowing this to happen, so I wont feel too bad.
What's the debate? Just pick the free game and play the two. The cost for Gameloft to send you a link to another game is 0: plus, the glitch is their fault in the first place, and they seem lazy to correct it. If they're too lazy to give you proper service, why should you get restless about exploiting their policies?
Hahah i discovered this by myself thinking that I had solved a worldwide issue I searched for forums to announce my discovery and tell everyone to get a free game as well
Unfortunately you beat me to it but I still suggest everyone get a free game for their **** up on not being able to code properly for fking android.

This happens to a lot of my Gameloft games.
I've sent Gameloft an email about this, but never got a reply
I'm very sorry to triple-post it. I do need some help here, and if i couldnt manage to fix this, i'm going to ask for a refund.
I love this phone so much, but i really appreciate music, and if the phone dont fullfill the task, its not of use to me
I just bought this phone and albeit its awesomeness, i've been experiencing some sound issues.
When I listen to music, some of them in random parts just stutter for a fraction of second. Its not much but happens quite a lot and that annoys me. It happens with connected music player and winamp.
I've just formatted the SD card and it still stutters. Swapped my 8gb card with my brother's 2gb one and it keeps stuttering. I'm afraid the problem is the phone...;
I dont know what to do...
Install PowerAMP and check if the problem goes away
Argen2Stone fixed that problem for me. =)

Also check whether you've got the latest software update; 2.2 indeed has this issue, they addressed it with 2.2.2
I used to have this problem in the past, and one day I found it in surprise that it fixed itself automaticly, maybe several days before......
And now the only problem for me is that I can't resort my playlists through my stock music player......

Thanks for the responses, guys.
Aragorn, yes, poweramp fixed this.
w0ndersp00n, yes it's on 2.2, how do i update it?
dangpzanco, if upgrading to 2.2 doesnt work, i'll give argen2stone a chance.

Up to now, I have seen only one series of moto's ROM is in system version of 2.2.2. Those ROM are produced for ME722, which is milestone2's Chinese version. And its stock language can be set to English.

Which one would you guys recommend?
Just one more thing, even if I update, the touchscreen bug will not be fixed?
Cause that's a serious issue and if it cant be fixed its better for me to return the cellphone and buy a Galaxy S.
Can you help choose?
Depends on your location (to get a working cellphone signal at your country), but flash 2.2.2 with RSD Lite 4.8+:
Argentina/Movistar is for Latin America.
UK is for Europe.
Or flash Brazil 2.2 and apply Argen2Stone 1.9 (for 2.0 you'll need Argentina/Movistar SBF)
Another thing/offtopic:
I just got Defy's bootmenu working here!
Just unninstall Droid 2 Bootstrapper, delete /system/bin/hijack, logwrapper and rename logwrapper.bin --> logwrapper.
Then install Defy 2nd-init Recovery Installer from Market and follow instructions from the app. (Install the stable)
It is a more elegant way to get into recovery/doing nandroids.

currently, I think that the MILS2_U6_2.2.16 ROM has successfully solved the touching problems, but I still recommend galaxy s, because milestone2's GPU is much more weaker than galaxy s', and motoblur sometimes slows down your system.
Sent from my Milestone 2
Thank you all, guys but I'm going to send it back. Loved the phone but i cant live with this feeling of wrong purchase. Maybe i'll regret my decision later...
I'm going to get a Galaxy S and I wish it doesnt have many problems...
I hope you understand my point.
I've also recently been suffering with a Music playback issue on my Milestone 2. Basically, when I play ANY Song, it will play halfway or a quarter of the way through, and then just stop playing. The Music player will still be in the Notifications Bar, but when clicked just bring me back to the Music Library. I'm downloading this PowerAMP App now, to see if this solves the problem, but I doubt it will.
So can any1 please guide me or give me solution to this plz? Thanks in advance
It actually has solved the problem, surprisingly, so thanks A LOT 2 "AragornPE" for suggestin' this app. Greatly appreciated

Yep. If it doesnt work, try alternatives. PowerAMP is the best!
I actually spoke 2 quickly, 'cause it seemed 2 have worked and solved the problem, but it still does stop Music playback half and quarter of da way through songs. Randomly. Whether the headphones r in or not.
Wondering if any1 else is having da same problem, and how/if they've solved it? My Milestone 2 is rooted by da way, and I'm sure that is da cause of the problem.
Thanks

I didnt have this problem, mine is also rooted, and didnt have this problem with froyo, and neither with the leaked gingerbread. Maybe you have installed an app that is causing some kind of problem with the memory.

Anyone heard anything about when the tablet optimised version of this is likely to hit? I've got it running on the Iconia but it's not the smoothest experience. Much better on my Xperia Arc at the moment! Hoping 3.1 will bring an improvement.
when you say running how long does it last before it FC? I just walk for less than a minute it bam fc....
works great for me. Only the character select screen lags a bit. I'm using 1.0.1 on the leaked 3.1 build.
Mine doesnt crash but the display doesnt fit properly and it lags. However I am still on 3.0.1 so heres hoping it will work after update!
Sent from my LT15i using XDA Premium App
Wow OK updated to 1.0.1 and its very good, even the cut off parts are gone. Well what I mean is there is no more cut off well just look at the pics below I'm currently using virtous Picasso 1.0.2 and other was on prime rom.
How did you get it to run on the Iconia?
Market wont let me download because its not compatible with my Acer A500??
Edit: nevermind, did a search for all devices version and could install the bugger
Purchased it from a compatible device tho, just to be on the legal side....
Question now is: i wont get updates the normal way now because Iconia market does not show the game even if purchased, grmpf:
Guess for the long term we have to wait for a lazy gameloft dev to extend the compatibility list for the game (played about 2 hours w/o a single crash yesterday, so the Iconia can handle the game sweetly.
Anyone managed to buy stuff @ ingame store?
For me connection just times out...

Yeah, same here. Times out every time
dont know if it just me but anyone have the "your system is not compatible"?
I been playing really good logged off then I tried logging back in and nada.
Maybe Gameloft finally detected the non approved system and blocked it?
No such issue here...
For me it force closes from time to time just after during startup (same applies to some other games/apps).
Also i had a "License invalid" once, but after another restart it was ok.
Game was working perfectly fine before but after I updated to 2.3.3 , I'm getting force closes Every time I start the game.
I uninstalled,downloaded everything again and still nothing. Anyone else getting this?
Sad but im still on 2.3.2 I figure if it aint broke dont fit it.

How was I supposed to know?
I updated because it improved alot of things (faster boot up,more stable wifi connection and improved battery,plus the facebook inside xperia looked neat)
have you flashed your phone with a different image or is it an official SE update? i did the official update to 2.3.3 and had Rainbow 6 before and it worked perfectly after aswell. now i have flashed my phone with a different image with rooted 2.3.3 and now it force closes as soon as i click it.(in my case i think its because the Playstation app to download the games is not there, making the phone think i dont have it maybe because lets golf 2 is the same and i bought them straight off the xperia games app)
Yea I got the same problem mine just force closes right away it makes no sense

Hi all was wondering if anyone else is having the same issues or a work around.
I have a stock telstra SGS2 and when i go to samsung market app i see a heap of HD games but when i try installing it comes up with an error app not optimised for devices 8002.
Why would it show in the samsung market if it were bot for my device. Secondly how do i fix this?
Thanks in advance for any help
EDIT guy at telstra shop say its future proofed. Some software isnt enabled yet buts there for later updates. Maybe deves and samsung have released apps but not the rom update?
Sent from my GT-I9100T using XDA App
Same problem, both with stock Bell/Virgin firmware, and with KG3.
Haven't tested those HD games, every other app or game seems to work fine. I didn't try to install them, because they are just trials anyway. Let's you play just for a couple of minutes.
