Games tested and not working:

Rainbow 6 by gameloft, touchpad glitch, while touching both the the analog pads it responds but on single touch no response.

Gangster Rio by gameloft is showing FCs during gameplay.

On the other hand, FIFA 12 works okay the gameplay is faster than before in a weird way

I'm using doomkernel OC 1.6ghz

Will test more games tomorrow and post here

Couldn't reboot into recovery from Fastboot as my phone kept going into charging mode instead. Had to flash back to stock and lost my root access :(
Screw it. When the official update goes live I'm just gonna wait till a Xperia Play ICS stock based ROM is released.
Happy it worked for everyone elsee though :)

I had that problem with Recovery at first. The trick is when you hear the phone reboot, unplug the usb cable. I believe the volume key down was what ended up getting me into Recovery.

So netizenmt did you get this to work on your Verizon R800x? I would imagine its in the same boat as the ICS beta where calls are nor working....

My problem with Recovery was with the Sony Beta, but I would imagine it would be the same solution.

I'm going to give this ROM a look tonight, but like you, if I can't make/receive calls, it doesn't do me any good.

I am using the just released GSM/CDMA DooMKernel with this ROM and it works awesome and we have root and recvery... this ROM is sweet....flashed the GAPPS and Face unlock and the CDMA, which I know hasnt been working perfect... going to see how it performs


This is a nice ROM but just the home screen transitions, while they are very smooth and fluid I think the ICS Beta from Sony might be faster... also Calls and Wifi are not working on my phone, I flashed a couple different wifi files from DooMLord but nothing works... dang..

    Important! Only for unlocked bootloader
    Sony recommended to flash the ICS rom only if you are on .62 firmware with .64 baseband, but in Neo and Arc forum there are users with other basebands and a working rom (with minor problems mostly)
    - Copy KA13_Ice_Cream_Sony_Play.zip to the root of your sd-card
    - First download the kernel of your choice
    - rename it to boot.img and place it in the same folder as your fastboot files
    - Open a command window in the same folder and type: Fastboot flash boot boot.img => Flash the ICS kernel
    - [stock kernel] hotboot any custom kernel: Fastboot boot boot.img => boot into ICS custom kernel
    - Boot your phone into recovery
    - Wipe Data/Factory Reset, Wipe Cache and Advanced => Wipe Dalvik Cache
    - Flash zip from sdcard and flash the rom
    - Reboot your phone and enjoy :D

    I am not responsible for damage to your device, use at own risk!

    Sorry buddy, but cant you just search the thread for that? I posted a fix for that some weeks ago, just use the search and be happy :).

    I have made an announcement in the other threads of Xperia 2011 line:

    I'm in my exams now and also developping for 2012 line. We have 2 phones of Xperia 2012 line here now and I'm putting too much time in XDA so I'm sorry to announce I'm going to quit the Xperia 2011 devices very soon.

    Thanks for understanding,

    Krabappel2548

    But you guys are an exception at the moment. I almost have a final release on Neo, Arc etc. but not here.

    So be happy because I'll stay here a bit longer and I'll have more time for you guys ;)
