Yea works great with a little overclock

Well they can't really release a update expecting every customer to overclock his/her phone

Also aren't like half of the games from the Xperia Play catalog force closing in ICS?

That's why we have custom roms. Everyone that would attempt and OC would also install a custom rom, so in the end, nothing is lost

Keep up the good work, cheers!

EDIT: Also, Kieran good luck with the CM9 patch/fix!

Sony canceled ICS not just because of touch pad compatibility but because of small RAM which made games stutter badly and there would be legal issues too.
Edit: I'd also like to say today I am working on hacking CM9 framework and injecting Sony input touch pad method.

you know that is a load of BS right? There is no legal issues. That's like saying I can sue when my PC no longer plays newer games at higher fps.

Our fps issues would be no different than what arc, ray currently have. Don't see any lawsuits there.

It was 100% a game pad issue, lazy bad devs on their part, end of story. Or a desire to kill the xplay.

At this point you should clearly see there is no longer a defense for them.

I'm not Sony bashing but it is what it is

If they released ICS for the play, as an official update, they would get shot down for the issues on it.
Lazy devs? They updated 13 devices

well Sony had big plans for the play but it did not sell as much as they plan so now they are trying to ERASE IT by trying to EOL it but they can't due to it being unfair to those who already brought it. So that why there is still games with Xperia play support seeing that's its the only dedicated gaming phone.
Well this is all just a theory anyway

granted.

But here is the problem.

I using this unofficial rom and kernel and I dont have a single issue with it. Every single thing works, its smooth, fast and I get high fps like in gb with no oc.

With that being said, with 1 guy maybe spending a few days making it, his 0.1 release is better than anything the sony devs could produce in the 8 months they claimed that they worked on it.

Honestly, what does that tell you?

that sony should not sell cell phones especially when they all look/do the same sh!t. you know something you devs should also take their(sony) wives and finish the job with them aswell! lmfao

Amazing Rom, but could you add the Sound>Sound FX setting into Settings?? As I am sure many people would like to use equalizer apps. I think this is what is causing the crashing issue with the walkman player's equaliser as well.

I'm surprised that this thread is not pined since this rom got EVERYTHING working ! really there's still some other members trying other roms and complaining about them (or am I overestimating this rom? no video-playback/wifi/data problems ?)

Hey people!

This is my first Sony Ericsson ice cream sandwich rom. And the purpose of this rom was because I was tired of downloading hundreds of roms for my xperia play and all of them having some kind of pros and cons, like one would look really nice and fast but not have any touchpad support and vice versa.

So far i have tested mostly everything and found no errors, My phone is a R800x and therefore I can't test 3G/service so test it for me and tell me how it goes! :laugh:

Here's a small list of key features i can think of off the top of my head

*Features*
-AROMA INSTALLER!
-fast
-WORKING WIFI! (tested with DooMKernel ICS BETA v03)
-FULL TOUCHPAD SUPPORT!
-based off stock Sony ICS/GB launcher
-xLOUD included
-MIUI music player
-new Sony wigets and live wallpapers
-Fully rooted
-removed blotware
-Screen Snapshot (hold power+Vol down)
-link2SD
-and much more!!

It seems that people are very interested in this whole touch pad thing. I already said what I did and pointed you in the direction of it. The the touch pad files all rely in the FRAMEWORK and lib. The framework-Res.apk is in regular android but the jar files are ported from gingerbread because the touch pads worked there right? So anyone with a little or intermediate knowledge of Java coding can re write the jar files seeing how android is compiled of Linux, a little of C+ coding and Java. Then the all you do is edit and sign the input.jar, framework-Res.apk and framework.jar. as for the drivers they all reside in lib folder. is that so hard? :what:

Great Rom absolutely loving it on my play

quick question on a problem i'm having some apps wont install that should work :S the HMV app for example it gives me the option to download it on the play store but when i try to it gives me error 942. it happens on that and a few more apps and live wallpapers. also some live wallpapers "stop responding" and force close only way to get them to work is by setting them over and over a few times :S

overall tho its brilliant and great work so far

loyal4ever · Jul 8, 2012

xdarkmario, you remind me of Dark-Alex :good:

Keep up the good work. I didn't try the rom yet but I will, once v0.2 released

rubbergnome · Jul 8, 2012

Just flash doomkernel ics beta and install the from via cwm recovery menu, I don't think you need any special firmware for it.
