if you don't want to use the backup & restore app then

or your SMS use

backup & restore SMS

https://market.android.com/details?id=com.riteshsahu.SMSBackupRestore&feature=search_result

and for your MMS use Save MMS

https://market.android.com/details?id=com.schwimmer.android.mmsextract&feature=search_result

one last thing

Don't worry so much about backing up your apps

on your computer go to

market.android.com -> log in -> click on My Library -> and send all your apps to your phone

i've done that already it says it has the updated version already but i went ahead and reinstalled it anyway but nothing changed.

Thanks but I have done all that and it does not work, the Verizon US version of the Xperia Play does not have that option....

if you can't get 2.3.3 on your play is bc either verizon or se hasn't released the update (most likely vzn)

i know for fact they have because it pops up on my phone

i know for a fact they have because it pops up on my phone that there is a software update and i click to continue and nothing happens

That is correct, Verizon has not released it as of yet but lets hope that it will be there when they do release it....

then why am i getting a notification on my phone saying Software Update? it says,

to begin software update, the phone will turn off WiFi.

WiFi will be set to ON at the end of the update.

do you want to continue?

If you take no action, the download will begin in ...... mins.

i clicked yes once and nothing happened besides the wifi turning off and then i tried not doing anything and nothing happened anyway.

i guess, should i just go to the verizon store and show them this on my phone and ask whats going on?
