Hey this is my first post so please be kind! I have had my HTC touch for some time now and am still yet to been blown away by the applications available, maybe I should have bought an iPhone but I still have faith in my choice…
Im having great difficulties in installing and playing old mega drive and snes games, that work well on this amazing screen! Can someone please help/ direct me in the best way to do this. This is my first windows mobile phone and the learning curve is something im still not 100% up to speed with!

for emulation MorphGear seems to work best with the touch HD. I believe there was also somewhere in this forum a joypad skin for morphgear.
i was just wondering if some of the dev's could share some love for the pantech breakout it's a good phone but it would be better rooted.
no love for the breakout. tis a pitty
Look at the ZergRoot/ Doomlord root tool that's out there. Noone officially has posted that it works on the Pantech....yet.
Anyone willing to try it?
*sigh*

OF CURSE ,
but we all know that xperia play 1 is really out of date ,
we all have xpera play , cause we all are gamer , so we need a high end phone to support games as much better as a phone can !
i really hope that sony , with all it's experiences , develop this version on future . (( near future ))
The specs are wrong, quad core with only 1GB of ram? and with specs so good and only a 8mp camera?
Well, i will wait for a real news.
I hate those "articles"

This thread is from the same guy who tried to say there's a hidden hdmi port inside the play.

Hey, the Concept is nice. Don't worry, Sony was focused on the Vita. Now that the PS3 is slowly dying, and the new line of Sony phones are coming out. The new Play will come. We just need to wait. I was going to buy a Play just for the gaming, but I have a JXD Gaming Tablet.

1)
You should know the only way of having a HDMI port on a xperia play would be by hard modding and adding tweaks to the play.
The play doesnt have a HDMI and Software support and most likely never will.
By you saying you never moded your play and have a HDMI port you are... , you should also know that if sony released a HDMI version of the play why wouldnt they have announced it. Or why didnt reviewers get any infomation on it? Simple answer is YOU ARE A LIE AND HAVE NO SENCE WHAT SO EVER!

cmon guys the 100000 article about a concept phone...
Really can you stop spamming the forum with such ridiculous news...
Since I bought this phone 1,5 month ago I at least read 3 concept threads here at xda....
Cmon I don't get it maybe you can bring light into me- but WHAT THE HELL ARE THOSE ARTICLES GOOD FOR?!??!
There is some random guy - using photoshop for 10min - creating a collage of several phones on the market - taking all high end hardware you can get atm - give it a name of a famous phone with an increasing number at the end or HD in the name - and call it a "new" concept phone ...
sry
Some desingers - might really invent some "new" and good things - but all those concept threads and articles about follower/sucessor phones - are just a bad joke imho...
If it at least would be something innovative or usefull of things that didn't exist yet... but cmon - OF PHONE SUCESSORS?!?!
Created by people who not even have ANY impact on the development process of those phones....
Really next and the weak after I will present the HTC TWO, and the SAMSUNG GALAXY S 5.
And if you are patient I will also introduce the SONY XPERIA PSP UBER TABPHONE with 99-Core C/GPU from ATNvidia - wich will beat you all in the *** - but not before chistmas 2017...
thanks for your attention...

Oh God this thread should be locked.
I've seen a lot of Play disassembles and there are NO HDMI ports anywhere on the device...at all.
The only ones with HDMI were the dev models for tradeshows and expos.
This guy is a clearly a troll of epic proportions who can't let it lie that he's been rumbled.

Hello.... I'm new here and I have a question..
I have a Xperia Play r800a with android 2.3.4.
The latest news are that the official ICS will not be for our xperia play... that made a lot of people sad... including me..
But there's a ICS rom and is possible to install it in the xperia play...
my question is.. is worth doing that?
Other questions that comes from the first:
updating the xperia play to ICS will bring benefits? or will bring problems?
I don't use the xperia play to play the official xperia play games, I use it to play emulators (NES, GBA, PSX, SNES, etc) so if the only problem is for gaming the offical games, that don't bother me...
I apreciate the information and recomendations you could give about this unofficial ICS rom... if justifies the change!
Thanx a lot.. and sorry for my english!

Hello.... I'm new here and I have a question..
Welcome to the scene! So there are quite a lot of ICS roms out for r800 devices with unlocked devices. Forgive me if I'm wrong; however I'm fairly certain that unfortunately there are no hassle free methods of unlocking R800a. The only way to unlock it is through the testpoint method, which unlocks sim also. A programme named "omnius" is used and it is a paid service. However the instructions are straight forward. The cost shouldn't be more than a few dollars or so, but you got to check into that. Again I may be wrong
As for the ROMs I have personally used emulators and played games like Mortal combat and Tekken 3, and worked like mint. Of course the touchpad I didn't use as they weren’t needed. But I only used the dpads. So the buttons and not the touch sensitive thing. Main features work best on the ICS official beta that was released. Using that you get pretty much everything working.
and here is the link for that: http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1571463
1) Is it worth it, well for me 101% yes it is. But i remember my first days I found things difficult and if you want to do it, do it in a weekend, get a can of coke and get working as it may take you a whole day to get your head around flashing ROMs.
Good thing: You can always flash a FTF stock firmware through Flashtool that basically it would reverse your phone, to its factory default state. These include, Rom, Kernal, Baseband and so on. So by doing that almost as nothing has ever been done, if you didn't like it
Bad thing: Your warranty will be void upon unlocking your bootloader, however I just used the blagus Relock tool and got my phone fixed when it broke. But some say I'm a lucky guy as they check the DRM key and Blagus tools doesn't bring back those keys that will be wiped clean upon unlocking bootloader.
But I actually don't use the Official beta as I like CM9 better. Some minor features like Wifi tethering are a WIP but heck who cares. I like it as it's smooth and fast.
Hope this helped and good luck

Thank you so much!
So there's a lot of pros with the ICS rom!!
Which are the main problems of this rom version? you said that you had problems with the wifi, are there more?
Thanx again!
other thing.... sorry for my lack of knowledge.... Is ther any Tutorial I can follow?
regards.
Yes, as I said there are minor issues such as WiFi tethering. Again not the Wifi itself but tethering. Some say battery lasts longer on stock ROMs and does not last as much on ICS which I don't believe in. I personally think battery life is infact better. Some other minor issue are things like video recorder which is a problem with Cyanogenmod. So if you flash the [ROM][PLAY][GSM] ICS++ [Update: Version 1.2 01/05] which the link for is
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1599906
You would have almost no BUGs and every feature is functional.
But you can sacrifice some minor issues and go for a Cyanogenmod which would give you a MUCH MUCH faster and smoother user experience. The ROM is clean and has no annoying Xperia Play apps that take space. But you have lot of flexibility.
Yes there are many tutorials on how to do this. However you would find many tutorials that are designed only for R800i devices and I believe R800a are not so easy to unlock.
may this link may help: http://unlock-bootloader.com/
I have ready that many with the same device as yours have already done it throguh the sue of Omnius.
http://www.omnius-server.com/buy_client
But a 1 month subscription and they should provide you a detailed guide on how to unlock the bootloader. Infact have a look over the website and find xperia play and they offer many other features too. But I mean these things I know from past and I haven't looked into R800a much. So try searching for similar queries and you may be lucky and there maybe an even free solution to unlock bootloader. YOu need unlocked bootloader to flash custome roms.
But then again these are all up to how much you want it. You are not the only one you is new and interested. Since sony said there will be no update for Xperia play many have joined this community and take advantage of ICS. I have to say it is a much gaster ROM than GB. YOu can use google chrome which is pretty sweet and with all that, it may look and will be tough. But you will learn and becomes much easier and the community would help you out a lot!
Good luck mate
If you really want to see some tutorial on how to unlock bootloader for free then here are some link that some people have used to unlock their device.
In this video, you see the location of the testpoint.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YFhjmtyyy6E
Then you must follow this guide and you have an unlocked bootloader, but still the drm rights

PLEASE, this may not work on your device and I'm not responsible for anything that might happen. Do a through research before doing anything! Good luck
Thanx again!!
This game has awesome graphics that's unfortunately kills the FPS.
I don't see any guide on how to tune it down a bit for version 1.0.47
but i know Hamdir has made a guide for 1.0.28 a couple months ago..
On my buddy's Note 2 it doesn't lag because it has worse graphics,
but i really don't mind bad graphics as long as the FPS is flawless...
So any idea how to tune it? :silly:
i guess nobody wants to answer :\ ...
That's a stupid reaction, "nobody wants to answer" ! Maybe nobody came along with an solution/answer ! Did you ever thought about that ?
XDA is not a company/helpdesk with payd personnel who sits and wait for questions to pop up and give you the answers you need !
Cheers
that's strange to have come up with no answer :\ , guess i'll just have to uninstall it then?
or install the Galaxy S3's version? since i already paid the game i should have no problem downloading the APK to make it a lot smoother..
