Gamepad problems on xDark ICS - Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi, (and sorry to create a post for this but i don't have my 10 posts :s)
I've test some games on his ROM, all works perfect with touchpad, but 2 games have bugs with gamepad.
- On NBA JAM, up and down are inverted with left and right
- and on Trial X2 Winter, O (circle button) is use as back while normally in GB it was for acceleration
If someone can report this to the ROM post it would be great, and, I don't know a lot of things on developpement, but is there any way to solve it by myself ?

As it's a custom rom of course it will not be perfect . XDarkmario says v2 is coming that will fix bugs

Asphalt 6 also has a problem with left touchpad, if you turn right or left and then lift your finger, the car does not return to the front, it seems like you were holding the touchpad, but you can play with the left keypad

most importantly, max payne still doesn't detect the touchpads, darn thats the only game i am interested in, hopefully v0.2 will be able to sort it out

also mc3 and Nova3 both are. Very glitchy

Please help!
Well my r800i's bootloader was locked. Running GB.
I unlocked it with SE's Site.
Then flashed the ICS BETA.
Then as per the link in the description, I flashed the Doomlord v03 kernel.
Then Through recovery installed this rom through Aroma.
Where did I go wrong?
My Phone turns on. goes past the doomlord splashscreen. but just keeps playing the startup animation of this rom. On the first run after the install it started but didnt go the homescreen. just the status bar was visible( The time, battery,etc) Rest was all black. so i rebooted. since then it hasnt even gone past the animation. I left for a good 6-7 hours. hoping that maybe its taking time.
What do i do now?
Someone please help.

my gamepad only works on a view games since i have an ics rom installed (i tried some differrent ones)
hope there will be a rom which supports every game...

Have you tried using Joystick Center 6 to resolve the problems? Particularly Max Payne.
I don't yet have the post count to link it to you on the Play store but it's easy to find.
There is a tutorial available on Xperiagamer that explains how to set it up.

UAE4droid success ?

Has anyone had any success getting UAE4droid running on a Galaxy S ?
All I can get is the floppy led's on screen, tried about 6 different kickstart roms so far with no joy
If so, what kickstart rom did you use ?
I have it working using Kickstart 1.3. I do remember that I had to disable "Cyclone M68k emulation" for it to work.
Hmmm still no dice, I'll have a hunt around for some other kickstart roms
It worked once for me then stoped. Couldnt get it to run again even reinstalled

I managed to get it working under Froyo in the end, If you use "RomBuddy" to download the kickstart roms then it works, I've since wiped the phone, but if I can find the rom on one of my backups I'll give you a shout
Yeah that would be great if you let me know which ones work. I didn't relise there was so many to be honest.

I'm assuming no-ones really checking this now as the last post was a while back but hopefully someone is.
I'm sure I'm being stupid but I just cant get this to work properly.
I'm running a Galaxy Tab on 2.2.
I have the ROM installed (2.0, 1.3 or 3.1 - got and tried all three).
I get to the rom screen (the blue disk going into a drive) but then it just stays on that screen. The game doesn't start even though it's loaded up like it should be in the preferences screen..
Thoughts?
Pm me your email, I'll send you the one I used to get it working bud

guys, can someone tell me, why it stays in before-boot-state after launch(blackscreen in short)?
no leds are rolling, no sigh of power-on(red diode), no df0: activity, no sign of emulated header movement.
checked all kickstarts i have, nada.
v0.99.
p.s. cyclone core emulation quits to startscreen after few seconds, that is weird too,
i am using device with xscale cpu.
if your using an encrypted ROM it won't work also... search for one that's unencrypted.

[Q] ICS build .562 Temple run and other issues

First of all my Xperia Arc S is not unlock or rooted, its completely stock no modifications made upgraded thru Sony PC Companion.
anyone experience some issues on temple run when you swipe to side to side sometimes the character jumps or slides instead of turning left or right?
and another issue for me is xperia home launcher it doesnt save my settings to arrange my drawer in alphabetical order it always return to own order after opening some apps like playstore?
any solution guys?
need your help badly..
hmm,i think i read somewhere that some games arent fully compatible with ics and there will be problems with the touch screen.
yea my arc s is GB and temple run is running smooth. Then after i get ICS its not recognizing touch properly
It's appears when i update wif ics 4.0
When I downgraded this problems havn't appear.
This is a known issue with Temple Run and ICS on some devices including ours. Plenty of comments on this on Google Play so let's hope they fix it soon.
Congratulations, you are the 100th person to ask this!
It is an ICS bug, happens in most of the games. Sony's fault.
I am not happy with Sony's ICS. I actually run Achotjan's SEMC Debrand Engine and it's awesome. I recommended it.
Downgrade to GB is the best solution for this case!
I think so
Temple run is not fully compatible with the ICS.

It's not Sony's fault. I've experienced this problem on CM9 too, which is not based on anything from Sony(kernel, firmware, etc.)
I just downloaded Gravity Project and it has the same problems as Temple Run. Completely unplayable.

[?] ICS rom that works good with games?

As the title says, I'm looking for a ICS rom for our Desire which works good enough for games.
I have tried many of the ICS roms and on every rom there was a problem with almost every game.
Temple Run doesnt respond to my swipes correctly and it often automaticly turn left and dies.
Tap Tap Revenge 4 doesnt recognise the phone resolution and therefor the size of the game is incorrect, menu too big and the screen while playing is very small.
Angry Birds doesnt respond to my touch. It responds to regular buttons like the return button but when i touch the screen nothing happens.
I want to have a ICS rom that works with atleast these 3 games cuz they are my favorite. If there is a ICS rom that works with one of these games then please tell me so that I can check it up.
I want to have a ICS rom cuz ive seen the big smoothness in these roms and in the games and it beats the hell out of every other rom that I have encountered
Thank you in Advance

I'm using COS ICS rom, and I've suffered your same problems with Angry Birds many times (don't know about the other games, as I don't have them).
All the times, the problems went away if I started the game just after rebooting. The problems seem to be related to something I used before playing, or perhaps with degradation after some hours of use...
Try it...

Unfortunately, some of these apps cannot be used until the developers update the app.
Temple Run- It's a problem with the touchscreen and it does not really run well with ICS. Some official ICS for certain phones (such as Xperia S) has the same problem
Tap Tap- It is not compatible with Android 3.0 and above. You have to wait for an update from Tapulous. However, seeing that the app has not been updated for more than 6 months already, it's likely that they abandoned it for tap tap 5.
Angry Birds- I can actually play it on Sanvold ICS perfectly, albeit with slight lags. So I don't know why it doesn't respond to your touches.
Hope this helps.

I have seen today that temple run has gotten a update that according to the logs fixed many problems with ics. Maybe it fixed the swipe bug?
I didnt know a tap tap 5 is coming. Is it coming to android too? Im very addicted to tap tap and i play it alot ever since the tiesto week. One of the song that came in tiesto week was my favorite and many more good songs have come so i play it now more than ever
And ill try sandvolts rom and will cross my fingers hoping that all my other games work as well as angry birds should work.
Hope also the update that has come has fixed the swipe/autodeath bug.
Edit: Aw, sandvolts ics beta doesnt work with usb tether!
I really need usb tether cuz without it i cant have internet on my pc.
I'm using Sandvold's ICS Beta Rom 0.10.1. Seems okay for games so far. And some games you've got no choice but to wait for the developer to sort out the bugs the game has with ICS.
sandvolds ics beta 0.10 is best. i have played even mass effect without any lags or freezes.

Temple run update do fix the swipe bugs. However, its still rather unresponsive sometimes. However I'm sure it would be fixed in the near future.
According to Tapulous, they are working on Tap Tap 5, hence they haven't be updating Tap Tap 4, I don't know if it will come to android or not though. They only assured iOS. Although hopefully it will come to Android, I missed playing it ever since I switched to ICS.
And for sandvold ICS, although usb tether don't work yet, why not just use personal hotspot? It does the same as usb tether.

Confirming that the following games work fine with Nikez Lente 1.0.1a5 ICS ROM:
-Temple Run
-Angry Birds
-Basketball Shoot
-Cut the rope
-Fruit Ninja
There is a known bug that for some cases there is no sound in Temple Run, dev is working on it.
BCM von dk_zero-cool. I'm running RC3.6U0 it has the same new adreno-libs as sandvolds port and at least angrybirds and templerun a working very well, touchpad is working, too. it really sad that the phone hasn't a real multitouchsensor.
Oh very nice, i dont care so much about the sound just want the game to work. Thanks aloot for tge info. I will definitly try it out.

[Q] Galaxy Y Problem

Hi there! I need help with my newly(yesterday) rooted Samsung Galaxy Y S5360. I have rooted successfully, so I downloaded Chainfire 3d from the market, and the plug-ins aswell. Then I downloaded two games, Football Manager Handheld and GTA 3. Tried to run them first without using CF3d. FMH force closed when it wanted to download data all the time. GTA 3 was fine, downloaded the sd data files, and it seemed to work, but after starting it, it came with a black screen for like 5 seconds, then took me back to the main menu. Hoping, other games would work, I installed Gangstars 2, but it came up with the black screen for the first time, without asking about data files. Could someone help me? I have tried all plug-ins, played with settings(reduce texture size, etc.), tried SetCPU, Swapper, have got enough free space on SDCard, and Phone Memory, but no success.
Thanks in advance!
EDIT: Tried NOVA HD, and Brothers in Arms 2. NOVA did the same as Gangstars 2, black screen for a few seconds, and back to phone menu. BiA worked, but characters were red, everything else was gray or brown, probably it's related to shaders.
I have never tested those games but dead space and pes 2012 surely work on my phone smoothly

Your RAM must be low that's why the black screen thing must be happening. Anyways, i tried gta 3 and fifa 10 in mine, gta 3 didn't work but fifa's working fine. Another thing, try to run the games in flight mode too.

[Q]CM10 Flinny Test build

Hi XDA,
I'm currently running latest Flinny CM10 test build (125), and an issue I've had for a while is that even when the phone is locked, but screen is on, I can pull down the notification bar and do actions. Is this normal? Is there a setting somewhere that needs to be switched off? I am using Apex launcher.
Cheers.
As far as I know this is a standard behavior since android 4.0 (ICS). There is no settings to disable it.
Someone correct me if I’m wrong
EDIT: If you have enabled screen security (pattern, PIN, password) you should not be able to pull down the notification bar. You should be able to pull it down only with slide lock.
I enabled a simple gesture unlock and yes now I can't pull down the notification bar.
It still seems strange that this is normal behaviour.
Thanks heaps!
yup... That's normal...
I also face some issue which is the ROM could not connect to external gps device... I think that's issue exist in CM10 since have same issue with galaxy smtd...
Yeah I don't have working orientation, light or gyro sensors still. It seems like some people have this problem and others don't depending on hardware revision.
Sorry for writing sth different here but i didnt want to create a new topic, so...
I had this andromadus version on my DZ but i didnt find any pre installed camera app, anyone else who had this or do i have to reload the rom (maybe sth went wrong during downloading)

I love this ROM, everything I generally use on a regular basis works fine. My only real problem is this ROM is a serious power drain, within an hour of being unplugged in the morning I have already lost 10% of the battery, by mid afternoon I am forced to plug the phone back in, this is something of an issue as I work at hospitals and plugging appliances into the mains is a violation of health and safety regulations, but I need my phone so I do what ya gotta do. Is there any way to reduce the drain from this ROM as I am fairly sure it is not any applications I have installed causing it, as none are running in the background when I check running apps.
plug it in to a computer with a logcat running, see what is going on that way. or if you aren't able to sit in front of a computer for a while watchdog is a nice app for this (keep in mind it should be for testing basis and be removed later as it to will always be running in the background)

evernote makes phone slow
I am using this rom (build 124) and I have and after restoring all my apps it became really slow. After some try/error I found that uninstalling some apps solved the problem. After that I started installing my apps again one by one and I found installing evernote make the phone near unusable.
Anybody is experiencing this? it also happen if I install "camera 360".
I am running build 127 of this ROM which definitely seems faster than build 126 which was the first one I tried and seems to be quick enough to actually use it most of the time.
When things do go slow it seems to be when switching to a new app and seems more likely to happen is the new or old app is big.
Regarding more apps slowing things down I wonder if it is actually more widgets and background services. If this is, as I suspect, do to with how many apps can be cached in RAM for fast switching then the more apps have something running in the background, for example to sync with a cloud service or to keep a widget updated, the less RAM there will be for the apps you are trying to use and there will therefore be a greater chance the app you are trying to start has to be started from scratch.
These threads really need to stop, Flinny's test build is just that A TEST BUILD problems/issues are expected.
I think it's normal...anyway it don't obstruct me

In my case I am certainly NOT contributing in order to criticise. Of course I know a test build may have issues but, like many others I suspect, I am happy to try the latest thing. When things don't work quite right it is worth discussing it. If we can understand what is happening we can help each other mitigate the issue and maybe even have something useful to feed back to developers.
I was running build 127 and things had become very slow. I have now updated to build 128 and the phone is fast again. At this stage I am not sure if this has anything to do with the new build or whether it is down to apps. I have all 45 apps installed but for many of those that sync to cloud services I have not yet got round to setting up the username/password for that to happen so this may be limiting the amount of background activity to a level where it doesn't get in the way. I'll try setting some of them up and see what happens.
