So I wanted to play games like the new Most Wanted, and Modern Combat 3. So I changed some things in my build.prop and made my phone think that it is the Samsung Galaxy Nexus S and all the apps are unlocked. So now I have both the games purchased, installed and play them all the time they work just fine.

After obtaining root i decided i wanted to see games and apps not shown in play. so off t build.prop. by editing the device and make to gt-i9100 and samsung using editor found on market. i wasnt able to download from market. but when i got apk and went to download sd files it worked. and finish downloads of dh3 and nova 2 with no glitches yet.
For whatever reason the video is upside down. I've found a fix however it involves editing the build.prop. I am thinking about making a backp of build.prop and just swapping it out as I use fring.
Quote:
Edit your /system/build.prop entities to be as follows:
ro.product.manufacturer = Samsung
ro.product.model = Nexus S
That is the fix.
so after reading and watching several videos for the past month since i got my Xperia Play R800i, i think im ready to root and try customizing/flashing Roms.

20 games are coming to Sony Ericsson’s Android-powered Xperia Play smartphone, with 10 Xperia Play exclusives to whet the appetite of Xperia Play owners and all to be showcased at the upcoming E3 games conference – alongside Playstation 1 games soon to also be made available.
I am having a very hard time trying to get root access to my Xperia Play.
Xperia Play R800i
Android 2.3.4
4.0.2.A.0.69
Bootloader unlocked
From what I could gather from this forum, I need to downgrade to 0.42 so I can use zergRush exploit by Doomlord, or Super One Click.
See, I have no interest in using custom ROMs.
Sony Mobile has confirmed that the Xperia Play’s upgrade to Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich has been canceled, leaving the PlayStation-certified smartphone on Android 2.3 Gingerbread.
