[Q] FPSE in CyanogenMod 9 (Circle button problem) - Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Since switching to CM9 (FX125), FPSE treats the circle button as another back button. It means that playing games in it is nigh impossible; pressing the circle button opens the emulator's menu.
On another thread, someone implied that CM9 might be the reason (because it doesn't use Sony's framework) and suggested modding system/usr/keylayout/keypad-zeus.kl to replace BACK with BUTTON_B. It didn't work for me, but I was wondering if anyone else with this app and running the same rom had encountered this problem, and if so how they fixed it?

Here you go

While I'm grateful for your efforts, that link brings up a 404 error. I then performed a Google search for the file's name and found this:

...but both of those links no longer work. Strange.

Thats very strange :S
I posted the fix for a guy on the Paranoid Android thread yesterday and it worked fine
This one might work (the link will work but not sure if it will fix the O button issue). Its just a general cm9 rom gamepad fix. Make a nandroid backup before flashing just to be on the safe side. Let me know if it works

Yeah, worked perfect for FPSe, but other games (Trails, Dungeon Defenders etc.) the circle button doesnt work.

Then if that fix doesn't work it would be related to the rom itself not the rom. Known issue that gameloft games are trash on ics so if it affects a major company such as that there may be more. It has to do with the way the game developers implement the controls

Thanks for the info guys. I decided to just edit keypad-zeus.kl anyway to get FPSE working. I'll break other apps in the process, but I'll deal with that then.

I don't think the circle button works with ics on cm9 or any other ics

[ICS PATCH][CWM] Dear XDA, I present to you...the rotation fix :)

ONLY FOR ICS LEAK-BASED ROMS
ONLY FOR ICS LEAK-BASED ROMS
If you have Gingerbread, don't read further!!
Auto-rotate! :-D
Specifically, this fixes the accelerometer issue altogether. Its a deep fix, going down to the driver level. So games and camera work too.
This should work on all ICS leak-derivative ROMs, including my own (and will be baked into my upcoming release).
Long story short, this was made possible due to the ATT Galaxy Note leak (a cousin of the T989)
In theory we can now start pushing out functional ICS ROMs. But there is still the pesky call echo issue, looking into that.
Feel free to include it in your ROMs...although I do ask for some credit since I spent countless hours in the past few days investigating and investigating. My eyes are sore
Warning: Please make a NANDROID backup prior to flashing this.
You never know what can go wrong.
There is no need to clear Dalvik, but I'd do it anyway if I were you.
This file needs to be flashed with ClockworkMod
So you can put it on your SD card, boot into recovery, and install it.
Be careful though. Make a backup first. Always make backups.
IMPORTANT
After installation, remember to:
1) Enable auto-rotation on your launcher / whatever you prefer. Remember we had a little era of no accelerometer so its a little bit foreign ATM
2) Calibrate your Gyroscope via the Settings -> Display menu
confirmed
working on racing's original ICS leak!
camera settings menu isnt retarded no more and pictures are the right orientation w00t
downloaded bubble level in the market and sensors are working perfectly
nice work yaldak, will be waiting on your new rom release, sing racings right now cuz video recording is broke in ravers, see if u can improve the call echo
check it out:
dial:
*#0*# - menu "Sensor"

Confirmed working on raver's ics blackedition!!!
I was so just about to use the rotation lock bandaid.... thank you ever so much!
Works perfect. no problems during the flash. Just make sure whatever launcher you are running has the auto rotate turned on.
Everyone thought that this would be a problem only source could fix... Congratulations on proving them wrong
Can someone else who hasnt applied the mod download android sensor or something else that will interact with the gyroscope.
It seems like its working in reverse. left and right seems to control for and aft.
I could be crazy. So I would like someone else to confirm.
Try to calibrate it.
Settings -> Display -> Gyroscope calibration

I just played darkmaze and everything seems to be working ok. I Just wanted to confirm that you fix didnt mess up the gyroscope!
Okay.
Kind of freaked me out for a minute...went digging through recycle bin LOL
I'll run some better tests when I get a chance. I'm sure there is room for some refinement.
Thank you all for the feedback
Amazing simply amazing thanks works on ravers rom

Use Thanks button
Folks, I'm speaking for all of us that subscribe to threads. Instead of posting "Thanks man" or something similar, just hit the "Thanks" button! We don't all need to be alerted when Joe Shmoe writes "thank you". We all appreciate the hard work of the devs - if you want to show your appreciation, keep the threads clean, or better yet, send them money/buy them a drink, if you are so inclined.
Thanks for your indulgence!
Confirmed working on EasyDoesIt. Awesome work!
this is fantastic. Was hoping it would fix Instagram, but it doesn't. I guess there are more issues with our ICS ports than just the auto-rotate. But we're getting closer!
Thank you so much! I can FINALLY play temple run and Asphalt

That is indeed weird, but remember it's still a beta. It still has bugs, otherwise it would've been released. Maybe you should try another rom, I'm using CM9 and it works like a charm.. almost.

Cm10 or SuperVenon JB Build?

Cm10 or SuperVenon JB Build?
Thanks, basically which 1 is the most stable with the most things working? and what do you suggest? i just wanna try JB for a while
I'm currently using CM10 from FXP, it's great, speed is good, but there are still a bunch of things that need fixing.
- Camera doesn't work.
- Torch crashes.
- Some apps won't install (because of SD?)
- Gamepad button O acts as back in-game.
- Occasional random crashes/reboot.
I actually made a fix for the gamepad that works with emulators (haven't tried games yet since I can't install them), let me know if you want it. (basically just edit keylayout and set O button to BUTTON_B instead of BACK).
However if you want something stable, I suggest you wait for a while, both of these roms are very much alpha versions.

HTC Desire JB by Vijendrah - Track Pad problem

Hi,
I do not have the access to post in that forum, so I want to just do a check here, does anyone have this similar problem.
ROM : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1945441
Problem: Trackpad no longer works in latest v3.0
V3.0 is all and good, the OS I have been waiting for my desire (for 3 years I dare say) However, the track pad is not working. Anyone have this similar problem or is there something I don't know about that I should be doing.
Thanks!
Hi anybody with the above mentioned rom care to chime in? The ROM is great FYI I have been using it for months. Been thinking about getting another HTC desire to flash it to this rom for my mom.
I don't usually use the track pad, but just tested and it seems ok

Sorry was busy for a few days, forgot about this thread, yeah I always do full wipe, not sure what I did but unchecking custom actions and then reboot... suddenly the track pad works again. I tried to recreate the problem by checking the custom actions, couldn't reproduce it... maybe it's just my track pad being dirty after 3 years? dunno. Anyway it works again, thanks for taking time to notify me.
Also... the link to the new work... I think I cannot test alpha builds... I really need my phone. but I will donate again if I move to new version haha, his work is great!
p/s anyone kind enough to explain what is the main difference at least between this new work and existing one? I'm kind of a noob and the last time I tried to read a cyanogenmod nightly changelog I almost fainted. Incremental builds from VJ I can understand, the rest... are totally alien to me, even finding the CM changelog was a challenge!
Just FYI I decided to try out the install a2sd from terminal with the Y Y Y command, and then when I tried to revert it back to the Y N Y setting, all my settings/sms/data was gone. So caveat emptor... or maybe you guys already know this, I for one did not.
Anyway now it's my HOME button that has lost functionality, the trackpad is ok... bummer... I didn't know how much I used it until it was gone. Even the settings under System > Hardware keys > Enable Custom Actions did now show a Home Key button (just has a Home key (long press) option)
er... help? I have restarted a few times... doggone it. I want my home button back!

I reflashed the ROM everything works now, I guess I was lucky never hard this experience before. I guess next time I should have a nandroid back up.
For anyone that just want an idea of what's the difference VJ has posted it himself. Please find notes below ty.
For actual differences between 4.1.2 and 4.2.1 google yourself.
But the improvements from my CM10 v3.0 to CM10.1 v4.2.1 is that:
1. The games which was not able to play in either any of the Jelly Bean version is playing now and better than GB ROM's.
2. Notification lights works
3. FM Works
4. Much Smoother
5. Video play back is very good (No more flickering)
6. Improved HWA
and find out yourself....
What's not working yet?
Same as Evervolv 4.2.1 (We fixed Bluetooth, Notification lights before them)
for me trackpad works fine

[SOLVED!] How to get Half Life Quake mod working on any phone (use button fix)

Dear XDA Developers,
I have searched everywhere looking for a way to get this Half Life Quake port working on my Xperia Play. So far out of the few Quake android ports. Ql4A is the only one that runs it, and it doesn't let press buttons and there is no use item. The other ports don't works as well, so I recommend using Ql4A. Has anyone found a way to get it working or found an alternative Quake port that is able to run the game with use button working? Is there a Xperia Play optimized Quake port that can run this? Please help, I want to play Half LIfe so bad!
I know its possible because of this.
Please help!
Here is the source for the ported Half Life Quake game that includes the Quake Half Life data
PLEASE HELP!
Ok, i finally figured it out by myself. (thanks for the help guys)
Heres what you do:
Edit in config.cfg buttons, and it just to be sure to root of game (\Quake) and all roots of mods (\Quake\hl).
-It's important to set "usebutton" in Config.cfg, there's no way, how you can set it in game; I set it on JOY1, it's my joystick button, and I advice to you, to set primary and secondary fire too, I set it on q and r, it's my softkeys (that two under display, depends on your device, you can't found it in game controls settings).
Config is opened as text
One more thing, does anyone have this file or this file.
Basically the file from this post here:
sisah it seems like you updated this mod from the first link you gave on this forum? People give this link on youtube for your HL psp mod:
http://files.filefront.com/hlzip/;12088502;/filein
it's bigger in size (339 MB ) and it's better!
This is really amazing work; I don't know how you got all these half life models and maps to work with Kurok.....you even have the flashlight working, and the use button for using the health and armor chargers and doors. Crouching also works for the most part with the select button. And secondary fire! You're very good at quakeC. great work
One question, why do the models seems like jelly? They don't have a perfectly solid shape

I'm going to try to create a tutorial with all this stuff and a working config.cfg file for you noobs out there, I might even create a special app just for this if people can give me these files
couldent you do this???:

With that you can even map buttons?

I never figured it out. But if you download quake touch and select the folder where you keep the half life mod files and then set the menu button as something you can do it. Email the Quake Touch developer who is really helpful if you can't figure out how to set the button
