I don't know how to code and everything and it is not a request just an Idea :
To play games ( heavy games ) we don't really need everything else opened, because since we play games we don't really want to be disturbed
So I thought that we can create a Game Mode that freezes every app opened ... and copy it in sd card ( like swap ) like home whatsapp google+ and everything that will let us have a lot more Ram availlable to play with and it will be blazing fast.
and when we close the game all the apps return like they were from the sd card
Just a suggestion ! thanks for reading.

Hi, anyone manage to play this on Xperia Play?
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.rovio.angrybirdsgo
It is free on market, but game need 195MB on internal memory. I succesfully install it but when i run it, it show me loading picture, and when music start playing, it kicks me out to homescreen.
I'm on ICS rom (Neo2Play) and on lupus ics/gb 480p kernel
If someone played it, please state your rom/kernel
Sent from my R800i using xda app-developers app
I played it using another method
There are some games around the websites that you can put the data in sd card
But the game was very laggy because it beeds 512 mg ram
It closes in all of the ics roms but it works very awful in stock gb(too many lags. I think using swap can reduce the lags)

I can make space to install it in /data, but it always kick me to home screen due lack of free RAM.
I was just wondering is it working at all in some lite GB (or JB) ROM.
I installed it today on Gin2Kittkat, switched in Ram Manager to heavy gaming and it closed after loading. Then I copied swap script to init.d, reboot and the game run normally. Graphics on Xplay is much worse than official screenshots, but it is playable and with only little lags. And it "support" Xperia Play gamepad - if you choose touch controls then you can turn with touchpads.

Thanks for detailed info.
It's exactly what i needed to know :good:
Any suggestions for a program to use/play game roms??
Like a PS3 or NES? There are a few in the play store, so hang on and someone will advise. My games are old pc DOS games so I use DosBox.
NES, Snes, genesis. I have the game zips downloaded just need something to run them.
I checked the android market (Google play) and saw lots of them.
Do you use any specific one?
I don't play enough games. I really should but I'm still feeling guilty about all those wasted hours playing Doom, Quake, and a few other time bandits.
You have your games on your SD card.
So, just grab the app with the most stars and try it. I for one would like to know what you learn.
Ok
Hi guys,
I'm about to travel and I was looking for a new device and I've thought of the xperia play as it can be bought really cheap these days
Though, I wonder :
Can it run smoothly, android 4.x, a minimalist nova launcher home, a custom keyboard, texting, a couple of web apps and of course PSX emulation ?
I don't even 3g or fancy features
Sounds like quite the dream to just text and call and be a swipe away to resume a bloody roar game in a train when I see my galaxy nexus stuck below 20 fps for psx emulation
Sorry if I'm not in the good section
thanks

Hi dude:
run smothly android 4.x : No , its laggy on new games
Nova launcher : YES , it can
Custom keyboard : Yes , it can
texting web : Yes , it can
PSX emulation : Yes it can
just FYI , i was waiting for 3 years for xperia play 2 , but never happened ... do i've alrease note 3
galaxy nexus have newer and much powerful hardware than play. if you cant get sufficent fps on galaxy nexus, you wont be able to get higher valules on play.
you will not be able to instantly switch between heavy games and apps, cuz play have only ~270Mb of free ram, which is not enough for even app only multitasking.
Maybe you can do smooth gaming when staying on 2.3. I've been using an ICS rom from Markpython for almost two years now. It was quite fast at the start but I must say that it's getting slower and slower in my daily use. I use more apps now than I did at first and perhaps the apps have gotten heavier over the years.
I don't even use the facebook app, I currently only have these apps running and don't have anymore space:
- Whatsapp
- Youtube
- Google maps
- Link2SD (this is a must, you need to use an app like this to force your apps to be installed on the sd card as the intern card is very small)
- Tinder
- 9gag
- NS (local train app for train times in the Netherlands)
- ES file explorer
I will be trying Mike's CM11 build now that wifi works soon so I hope that makes it better.
Hey guys I m not able to run two games ie beach buggy blitz and riptide gp2 at a time, if running one other closes... restarts upon opening.. But a reviewer called allabouttechnologies played Mc5, gta San Andreas and nova i guess and all resumed from where they are on the same 2gb model... wtf is wrong with my phone?? not able to get proper help....
Video here: http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=YvZYOybbZd0
Also my ram never goes below 300mb.. No matter how many apps i run in the background... they just close in the background... And I have seen users getting 200 odd free ram... not in my case... so it may be the latest update?
I've never played two games at once because that's ridiculous. But to answer your question android's memory management is killing 1 game in order to reclaim more RAM & avoid the critical state. I imagine those games each need a lot, so the 4GB variant would be better for you.
"I'd Totally Hug You, If That Was Something I Did"
Yeah I know nobody would play two games at a time... But how did the guy in the video do that?? And when i m on coc or any other game if i get a WhatsApp notification and if i see the msgs and revert back to game it would restart.. And there would be no other running apps in background...
I can do that in my 4GB version. Maybe 2GB isn't enough? Moreover, there are many memory leak issues in 5.0 so memory management is very unpredictable.
Hi guys,
Has anyone experienced /encountered this problem on PUBG Mobile where you need to re-download resources the next time you play the game?
I always need to download or reinstall the game just to be able to play it again. :crying:
I noticed that after installing the game it takes up 1.8Gb of space then I'll be able to play it and then when I get home and try to play again it will start downloading resources again so I go to the apps menu under settings and I am surprised that the app is only taking up >300Mb. It's been like this every time.
I hope anyone will be able to help me on this matter coz I really like playing this game on my nova 3. Thanks! :good:
