What Rom are people using? - Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi
I a have a gsm play and recently flashed a cdma Rom
The Rom looked fantastic as the author had done something with the dpi settings and it ran so smooth
What Roms are people running and are they happy with them compared to stock ?
Coming from an htc desire I used to have lots of options but the play seems a bit limited
I am currently running on stock Rom and seem to use lots of different launchers

Downgrade to Gingerbread. It's the only solution to all these game problems.
Sent from my LT18i using XDA App
i downgrade it already but this mean i will never update it or i should choose between the update and games and all new roms are ICS based
All ICS based ROMs have this problem. Stick to GB ones for gaming.
Sent from my LT18i using XDA App
Yeah agree stick to GB roms since it's much more stable and snappy than ICS roms.
Try this rom.

IMHO
it's good for gaming.
The games mentioned there works on Arconium ICS too.. The touchscreen bug is applicable to all ICS ROMS! So the only solution is downgrading to GB.
Yes, that's the final solution i think.
Yes, back to GB, is the best solution.

[Q] CM9 vs CM10?

Which is better, CM9 or CM10?
With all the hard work of the FXP team, it's extremely difficult to choose between CyanogenMod 9 and CyanogenMod 10
I was wondering, if through the power of the XDA forums, people would be so kind as to help me out a bit, maybe offer an opinion, or tell me the benefits of each.
Obviously I've read through both threads and found problems and errors, but due to the constant updates, I never know if these errors still exist or not
Hopefully someone can help me decide between CM9 and CM10 or advise me to stick to my Sony stock based rom at the moment
Thanks!

There are total three versions released by FXP.
1. CM7 - Ginger bread
2, CM9 - Ice Cream Sandwich
3. CM10 - Jellybean
Right now CM9 is in beta and CM10 is in alpha. Where CM7 is in stable mode means everything is working and most of the problems got solved.
Regarding CM9, its laggy compare to CM10 - my personal experience. But CM9 it is in beta, where it fits for daily use.
Regarding CM10, this ROM is in alpha, with fixes (posted in CM10 thread) it is also suit for daily use.
What I want to say is stay with GB, flash CM10 once the rom moved to beta version or flash CM7 for fast and smooth ROM. :highfive:

One thing I like about ICS is the action bar though
Are there any app incompatibilities like apps that only work with ICS+ or do they all work with GB?

Not all ICS apps incompatibile with GB. If app is incompatible may be the app will get Force close.

Cm10 is better
Sent from my Xperia Arc using Tapatalk 2
Why would you say that is?
CM9 cuz its more stable than CM10.
I use CM 9.1 because it supports flash... CM10 is a lot more fluid than CM9, but lack of flash support is a huge deal for me.
I chose to try out CM10 and I don't think I'm going back
If you install cm10, there is a simple way to get flash working just as it does on Ics, tested it myself with flash and dolphin browser if you're interested I can link you to the apk

sorry but...Neither One Nor the Other .in My opinion!
What I like most about JB/CM10 is the options in the notification bar, like quick reply, call (for texts), and call back or message (for calls) not to mention the incredible battery life i get when my phone is in standby (i think it averages 0.5%/h, which is much lower than all the other roms I tried, for GB and ICS). But I'm using an xperia pro (since we share a forum) so it might not be the same... but one thing i don't like about CM10 is the camera (have they fixed that in fxp138?) and the random crashes every now and then. But it's not that bad.
If you want tasted ICS and GB look, just try flash Jelly Sandwich by Maxxio 1998. Just stable... Use until CM10 get the beta version...

Jelly Sandwich and Xperia ICS & JB Remix is builded on stock ICS. Currently Im using Xperia ICS & JB Remix and it's great! A lot of free ram, zero lags and no bloatware apps like : Timescape and FB.

[Q] CM9 alpha 9 or MIUI v4 2.8.10?

As in the topic. Maybe MIUI 2.10.12? Maybe some other? Which do you recommend?
I've tried almost every non-sense rom, and my two favorite is RobotoMOD or MIUI v4 2.8.10, because they are the fastest/smoothest.
CM9, CM10, Paranoid Android 2.54, Speed Droid would be good too, they were working fine, but they were laggy compared to Robotomod or MIUI.
Robotomod could be better too, for example if Int2Ext4+ or anything else (beside Link2SD) would work.
@up
I used MIUI, and now I'm using CM9 and I don't see that MIUI stood out as fast.
I've used MIUI for a month straight and no lags except the known bugs. I am currently using cm9 because of hq videos.
Go for MIUI coz of the interface and the speed.

i really dig MIUI the snapseries one though. i'm using paranoid android right now though, and i love it. i think its all up to your personal taste.

Miui for me
tbh i used all three and i LOVE THEM ALL, i would stay on miui but its out of date and the themes dont apply right sometimes. i just stick with cm9 for speed and stability and a uniform look. as far as lag try using some of the memory tweaks and v6 then change your launcher

[Q] Need Some advice!!

What is The Best Kernel / Rom Combo for Xperia Arc/S where WiFi and WiFi Tethering works completely stable on Jelly Bean?
I have been searching the forums for about a week now and haven't found anything remotely to the question i'm asking. I've seen similar posts about the best Combo's but none which specifically for certain Options within the Rom/Kernel ....
So far I have Tried:
Kernels....
LuPus JB V2-V4
FXP 144-146
Fusion JB
JBV02
Roms....
C.A.M.P.S JB
AOKP Anzu Build 4 & 5
MIUI JB 2.11.2
Jellybean-V02
I hope those list will help that I have been hunting around

I know about JellySandwich and I have to agree there is no problems whatsoever with JellySandwich but it's Ice Cream Sandwich based Rom with JellyBean goodies I was after a JellyBean Rom that supports with what I need. The unfortunate part is that there is no Official JellyBean Firmware for our devices so we have to hope that a custom can do it. But thanks for your analysis anyways
Arc Fusion 3.9 with FXP 147, only problem I have is gps (doesn't work)
I get 1.5 days in battery life with interactiveX and Sio
Light gaming and surfing the net and facebook
Tethering doesn't work on 147, However you can make it work with 145 with this wifi tether fix
Though I think there were problems with youtube on 145 (me thinks)
I use since few days JB V03 4.1.2 but with Fusion 3.9, and it seems to be good. wifi works great, hotspot also nice. 2g/3g normally.
battery is also good. I use 2g/3g all the time, and the battery works like 1,5-2 days which is good cause every previous rom i had was discharging during a day.

Thank you both for your ideas on Combo's I have tried both Combo's with an unfortunate result ... I should've stated because technically you were both right and Tethering does work. But on both USB Tethering works great no problems. But I unfortunately needed Wi-Fi Tethering which doesn't work on either. On one of them (Fusion 3.9, FXP 145 with Tethering Module) Does Pick up as working but no Data sends out. I have had to Revert back to stock LT15i ICS Rom because my internet in my home runs of tethering (Wireless Tethering). But seriously thank you both for your Ideas.

I have given it a try but because I have had a good taste of JB I unfortunately can't go back to GB. Yes it is amazing in all of what you said but the JB goodies has killed my rational thought lol. But thank you for the opportunity

I'm using Xperia Ultimate HD 2, and I'm pretty happy with it, it's very stable and really smooth, smoother than anything I've tried so far, it's based on 4.0.4 which is the last ICS version before Jellybean, people say 4.0.4 is the best version of ICS overall. So the Xperia Ultimate HD 2 is a great Rom built on a great base. Obviously you want Jellybean features but I'm not sure on everything you want, but I have Google Now on here, and I think it's modded to look like JB, you should check it out on the Complete Rom list and see if it has what you want

[Q] Fastest HTC Desire Rom (performance)

Hi all,
I'm currently looking for the fastest / best performing HTC Desire Rom.
As I'm playing Ingress, its really slow and closes very often. I was thinking flashing a Rom without Sense, as it would probably perform better.
I guess 2.3 is faster than the new built? Or is it the other way around?
Let me know if you have any suggestions, or if I should use a 2.3 no-sense Rom?
Regards

I would recommend AOKP VJ 4.2.2 Jelly Bean v2.1. In my eyes it is one of the fastest, smoothest and most stable CM 10.1 based ROMs at the moment. I appreciate that it constantly keeps the mem free above 100mb.
i'd say Mildwild roms are the fastest and most stable.
Been using them for a long time now....still very pleased with them.
They have a few small issues, but overall...the fastest roms available if u ask me.
Currently running MW9.5 Redux, but used MW8 before....i find MW8 a little bit faster and better...it's got a few more options than MW9.5
...hoping for and upgrade of the MW8 version....
Wanted to say thx for all your suggestions. I'm running 4.2.2 VJ CM 10.1 now, and its awesome.
Pretty fast, and i got plenty of RAM, so Ingress does not close when minimizing (not everytime at least)
Thx! :highfive:
