Well that support info i got was wrong because Yesterday Orange Released the update on PC Companion, running it right now and loving it .
Any idea if it will be available OTA?
Thanks
brought to you by the XDA app on my Android toy
any chance to upload a tft file or recovery backup?
Did this come with the panorama camera app thingy?
I can't find it!
The xperia play did not get that for some reason but camera does film in 720p now.

If I update via pc companion, will I lose all my settings, apps, messages, etc?
No sir everything will stay the same it will even say before you begin the update that all your data will stay
Awesome, thanks dude

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.

oh that's nothing it happened to me too.
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)
Canada - No update
UK - Update available installing now
please delete post. My 2.3.3 was a spoof.

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

Hello,
For new Android market that is rolling out now, will we will get the new Android market even if our phones have been rooted and have custom ROM on it?
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App
I couldn't imagine them doing anything specific just to (I'm sure only momentarily) annoy people with rooted phones.
If your market works now I'd say there's a fairly good chance the new one will as well. Although I cannot confirm it.
Yes, the new one works. I use it since.yesterday on my dhd.

Anyone else getting problem with it not showing your installed apps? Only showing 11 apps when I just counted I actually have 55 apps installed. Don't want to have to uninstall and reinstall all them just so they show up.

A restart and a bit patience sorted the problem.
Overall I like it. Would rather there was a my apps button on the front page but in not going to go on a murderous rampage because its missing.
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA Premium App
From what I can see it is a very data hungry application as it can take a while to fire up when network connection is on the slow side.
i still havent got the update on my dhd.
so there are different release dates between different regions right?
Ye, Google did say the update (which will go on your phone auto, so no need to go to settings and update) will be with us all between now and up coming weeks.

i hope the version that goes arround is not the final one cause beside being very laggy it is buggy. it broke a market link of an installed ap while trying to update it.
also even though it showed me one app being able to update it didn't allowed me to. clicking on it brought me to the apps details page and there i could only open or uninstall it.
i could onlly update apps if i had more than one by clicking update all.
p.s. oh and not to forgot: the amount of traffic it causes is extrem! a multiplactive of the old one, as if they would not cache the images of the apps showcase on the front page.

Agreed, same problem here, uninstalled the update. Don't like the new layout, hard to find things.
I have uninstalled the update and gone back to the last version. New one is almost unusable on anything other than a perfect cell connection.

Same here but i guess i'll keep it as it looks great,just a matter of few days to get habitual of it
when i click on download in new market it is starting to download for ages
when i reset phone it download the file immediately
Am I the only one, who thinks the new Metro-look (WP7 like ) is ugly?
I dont see any slowness. The only thing that bothers me is the updates. With the old one you could see the updates right away. With this one not so direct.
I just downloaded netflix update from today and it works with no chipmunk effect!!!!
Are you on a stock rom?
I just installed, no stock rom and it's working flawlessly, my dell just got that much better
I can't find netflix in the market? I have the latest version installed already, not that it works or anything.
Running stock rom
IIts not in mkt try adroidheadlines.com and look for article from today I was so happy for it working and got in a hurry!!!
You mean "androidheadlines.com" ?
Helps to have a few missing letters in there !
Edit: Hurray! I can vouch that I can now get Netflix on my Dell Streak !!
Sound is normal, movie plays smoothly !
I am on stock Froyo 2.2 with Rogers, unlocked and using Telus SIM.
Finally a worthy use for my 6gb data plan !
Thanks OP for this gem of a discovery !
Note that this is NOT on Market. You have to download the APK from the link in the article at the website above.

Stock Streak 5 NetFlix now working
I have a factory-unlocked, unrooted Froyo Streak..... Last month, I had side-loaded the NetFlix app (version 1.2.something), and it would take me to NetFlix & I could log in, but would not play any videos (player screen would go black for a second then it would immediately take me back to the NetFlix search screen). Yesterday, I finally uninstalled that version and installed the newer version from XDA (version 1.3.x I think it is), and BOOM.... it's working like buttah! Thanks all!!

LOOOL @ laney/sahib - Donkey rules!!
New market is good, not much improvment tho - but the cheap apps deal is really good, Osmos is well worth it for anyone looking for a great time kill game.
News are correct, we will get KitLat in April, but there is no correctday, but it's in April, I saw that in gsmarena

Way too long of a wait.
My Z1 on 4.3 has major Bluetooth and memory leak issues that I need resolved now.
I need the move apps to SD card function also. I'm completely out of space.
All news outlets including GSMArena, Androidpolice etc are just referencing that french carrier who said it would come out in April. It's all from the same source. My bet is still end-March, maybe earlier.
April sony originally said q1 not q2 the software last I heard was in testing stage 2weeks ago
Sent from my C6903 using Tapatalk
But that's the carrier version of the Android. I think that we might get KitKat in a few days, as Polish employee of Sony said. Look, that French carrier says, that 4.4 for G2 is coming out 3th March, but it's already released.
With Google trying to unify Hangouts and SMS, does this mean we will lose the normal SMS app if/when we update to kitkat or is that just for stock/nexus devices?
i dont like Hangouts, would rather keep the normal SMS app.

Sony is delaying the update so we buy Z2 to get kitkat. They should show us more respect instead or they are going to quickly lose freshly acquired customers like myself.
I agree, they make phones with kitkat and we must have kitkat with new phone releases or shows

I thought that we will get KitKat on this month, but maybe they found more bugs and maybe they are doing something, but as Z2 comes out, this is the date for KitKat

no such problems here on .136
everything runs fine, zero memory leak issues, plus phone now runs cooler and battery life is better.
as for Move to SD function, I have Nut's Rooted rom .136. with Folder mount this is no longer an issue.

Let just hope it won't be April 1st
