You would probably loose your phone too as there isnt a 2.3.4 rom out for the play apart from CM7

write the wrong thing

Are you talking about the new xloud update? If so I believe others have tried it and lost their root. There is also a chance of bricking if you have your bootloader unlock since that update is not OTA.
If you mean from 2.3.2 to 2.3.3 then do it OTA and you will not loose your root.

The OTA of 2.3.4 is out in the UK and I am tempted to update seeing as how the 2.3.3 update kept the root in place.
Can anyone here verify updating a rooted Play from 2.3.3 to 2.3.4 using OTA works and keeps the phone rooted afterwards?

2.3.4 already out in the UK? Really?

Its definitely out in the UK, the OTA version anyway. Got the system update alert yesterday and tried updating this morn.
The update downloaded (8mb) but didn't install probably cause I messed up with Titanium.

Ya really that seems pretty small for it to be 2.3.4

Gladiatrix update question

Im rooted using glad root. I have gladiatrix installed. What should I do before updating. Im on 1.5.7 right now.
Sent from my MB860 using XDA App
I'm not entirely certain, but I believe that you'll have to reflash an SBF (1.2.6 or 1.5.7). From what I've read, the update checks for deodex and simply won't go through if you have it. (Which GingerBlur, GreyBlur, and GladiAtrix all have)
Of course this is assuming you're referring to updating to the next firmware.
Ya I am. I didn't sign up for the beta but this morning I had a message to download the update. I downloaded it but have yet to install. I wanted to know what to do first.

i was able to reroot on 1.8.3 using GladiAtrix 2 after updating from 1.5.7 with root if that helps anyone

Yea but if you're rooted with 1.5.7 do you just run Gladatrix to preserve root then update then run afterupdate again?
I reflashed to 1.26. Before update. Update to 1.5.7. After upadte. Updated to 1.8 whatever it is. Then after update. I just haven't put a rom on yet. I think im gonna wait to see if something ia updated soon by devs

Weird when I do the same steps, when I run Afterupdate when I'm on 1.8 it errors and says "osh/sbin/frozenfish: Not found"
U have Ian debugging enabled? After 1.8 update I had to reenable it

official ICS update recieved on SK17i

my friend just called me up saying that he recieved ICS update notification on his SK17i. unfortunately my wifi is not working so we will update it in morning. i will post screenshots after that. all indian SK17 users can check thier phones
Does it update at the same time in different countries?and...What about st15i?
can anyone confirm that?
have anyone received ICS official update in your sony ericsson?
updates are region dependent. about ST15, i can't check because i unlocked bootloader and running CM7.
Didn't he thought the fw version (4.0.2...) was ICS, right?
So?? no official update?

No... That is firmware version. Not android version.
LOL... No ICS update I only got .62 firmware version
I also got upgrade prompt to .62, not ICS, but I don't want to upgrade cos' it will break my root.
Is there any way to get rid of the stupid notification?
Fota update will not break your root access.

Got notified of the update, too.
My phone told me I couldn't update over the air so I had to do it via PC Companion. This did in fact break my root.

[Q] After Unrooting.....

Hi,
I have root my I9205 after I bought it three months ago. (I just root it nothing more)
Now I want to upgrade the stock rom (coz there are some minor problems)
Will I be able to upgrade the Stock ROM (OTA) after unrooting my I9205??
Anything else I need to consider??
Many thx!!
Have you tried OTA yet?? Even being rooted???
Sent from my GT-I9205 using xda app-developers app
It say that my phone had been modified OTA cannot be applied

AFAIK OTA after rooting is not possible. Phone has to be 'virgin' stock to have possibility to upgrade by OTA.
Just flash the latest stock Rom, this will update and unroot all in one go.
