There's not a lot of active rom right now. So kinda hard to giv u some suggestion.
Kindly Hit Thanks Button if i've help u in anyway.

I've used a LOT of the XP roms and first let me say this: there is no truly "best" rom, it all boils down largely to a matter of preference.
I'm currently running TrueAncestor 1.6 and I really like it, but I do miss certain things about ICS. The thing with ICS that's worth understanding is there is no truly stable or complete ICS rom for the Xperia Play. Every ICS rom has bugs or missing features. Some are worse than others. MANY ICS roms drop support for the touchpads in major games (EA Games, Gameloft Games, Rockstar Games) due to a colossal screwup on Sony's part. You can sort of regain the touchpad functionality using things like USB BT Joystick 6 or GameKeyboard, but those are hacks and they eat system resources.
Speaking of resources, ICS roms are also much more system intensive. Your phone will run slower, games will run less well, and your overall performance will be less snappy than GB roms. It's not *terrible* for sure, but Overclock is practically necessary for ICS roms to help make up for that performance loss. The XP's hardware is dated (it was dated when it launched, technically) and it's starting to show. The paltry amount of RAM and single core processor really hurt it's ability to run ICS and still kick ass at games.
Overall though, as far as ICS roms go I'd recommend AOKP, though the dev has gone dark and not updated it in a while. It was pretty good and had a lot of nice features. I hear CM9 is also nice, and it continues to get active support and development, and will eventually be superceded by CM10. Even then though, I still ran into moderate bugs on both of them - AOKP had a persistent problem where the WIFI would stop working due to a bug in the Settings dialog, so turning on/off your Wifi could cause it to stop working altogether, and the only fix was a reflash. It was a major pain in the ass. Other ICS roms will just randomly crash or reboot, or programs won't work or will crash that should otherwise work in ICS. Overall, be prepared for instability and don't expect 100% from your phone with virtually any ICS rom installed. Blame Sony for only releasing a beta of ICS and then dropping support.
There are other good ICS roms, such as ICS++, Ice Cream Sony, and KA, but some or all of those might have lost dev support (it's been a while since I checked) and none of them really did much in terms of feature changes/support, so they've stagnated compared to more active roms.
Honestly, I realize now that there wasn't a ton in ICS that I needed, and having switched back to GB last week I'm very happy I did - performance is better, battery life is tolerable (slightly worse than AOKP was), and games run great, plus I have full touchpad support again. It looked nice, but it didn't really add anything, and the bugs and missing features finally pushed me away from it after almost a year of running it (I've been running ICS since the first ICS ports hit the XP).
As for GB roms - TrueAncestor is good. I was running JokaWild for a bit, and it was ok, but it didn't blow me away, TA's theme is more preferrable to me. I'm running DoomKernel v14 which seems ok - it's also a bit dated though and Doom could probably do some updates to improve it a bit more if he had the time, but I'm sure he's quite busy.
I hope this helps - and good luck.
Also, if you aren't Fastboot enabled, get that done - it's worth the money and you'll need it in the hunt for the best rom, otherwise your selection will be very limited.

I have been using ICS roms and they are my favourite, there is a developer called secho I use many of his ports along with the kernel he recommends my favourite so far

True ancestor with my bloatware remover is my choice

[Q] Xperia Play under ICS Rom / Custom Kernel - Useful for gaming ?

Hi,
I have a Xperia Play R800i currently on stock ROM/Kernel (Clockworkmod and root).
I am currently considering moving to custom Kernel and one ICS Rom, especially now that the touchpads are apparently fully functionnal.
However, I have some questions related to how I am used to use my phone.
I basically use my phone for three things :
1. standard phone functions (messages, receiving and calling...)
2. some internet search
3. gaming
Apart from that, I use a few apps like a calendar, some pdf reader, camera on the go and so on...
But I do not use to go for full multitasking.
So, first concern :
I understood so far that ICS roms were enabling greater multitasking but that game performance could be altered (broken games in ICS and Sony concern of the gaming performance leading to the official Sony ICS rom to be frozen).
Anyone has a clear answer on this ? Does ICS Rom give a boost to gaming ?
Now, second concern :
Regarding the custom Kernel, I read various things going from the "Hey, that's the greatest thing on earth!" to the "What a battery drainer!".
I also read some complaints on the fact that even if the cpu can be properly overclocked, the gpu overclocking is extremely limited at the moment.
Therefore, is it useful to overclock ?
Does it give such a boost in overall performance and in gaming performance ?
I can fully understand that emulation is certainly boosted up by overclocking but can we really feel the difference on gpu intensive games like Dead Trigger for example ? As the gpu is not overclocked, is there any benefit on such games ?
I am pretty sure some of these questions are already answered some way or the other in this forum but it seems I was not able to find any specific thread on the subject.
Hopefully, some of you will have clear answers for me.
Thanks a lot in advance, guys,

Overclocking on ics for me doesnt make a difference in gaming performance/emulation or using everyday apps. Big battery drain on ics rather than stock gb. Clearly ics is not made for the xperia play because of its specs. ICS is tailored for the higher end phones. Stock gb is the way to go.

Thanks for your answer,
Before I decide to unlock my bootloader (I still have 1 year of warranty so far...), I will try to apply the various XPeria Play tweaks, get the V6 Supercharger script to work and remove bloatware with the Aroma bloatware remover.
This may help...
You confirmed that ICS ROMs may be so useful so far. They may come up smoother later on and it seems Sony is working on a Jelly Bean ROM for Xperia Play. So, wait and see !
Regarding the overclocking, as the gpu can not be overclocked so far, I will not mess with this at the moment.
I am just wondering if a custom kernel coming with improved Adreno 205 gpu drivers may give a speed boost, even without overclocking...
Cheers,

Let me cut to the chase no matter what you do use v6, adreno gpu drivers, overclocking or whatever you didnt list.By using ICS there will always be lag on some if not most applications as I said so before ICS will never beat GB. Where are your sources? Sony just confirmed they wont be making Jb on the 2011 line devices.

Well, it seems I got false hope from previous Sony statements.
They said no ICS, then one spoke-person said not JB, then Sony came back saying they are currently investigating JB implementation on all there 2011 Xperia phones (where I got stuck...) and they just recently announced that JB was simply dished away but they would follow up the 2011 products with firmware maintenance...
http://www.xperiablog.net/2012/10/19/sony-mobile-confirms-2011-xperia-devices-will-not-get-jelly-bean
So, it seems you are right and my sources were simply outdated... That's a real pity in terms of marketing communication.
I can understand the 2011 phones may not be powerful enough to allow for ICS or JB but Sony just created some false hope for nothing and this could have been avoided.
Coming back to the subject, there is one point I did not understand properly.
I fully understood your position regarding ICS on Xperia Play. No way to get it 100% perfect whatever we do. That's fine.
Now, would you recommend GB custom roms and all the v6 + overclock + tweak + all I don't know at the moment to get a smoother, faster experience and gaming performance ?
Or do you consider that even under GB based roms and kernels, the Xperia Play performance does not make a difference big enough to justify risking the warranty (especially unlocking the bootloader) ?
Thanks in advance for your feedback, you've pointed very interesting points so far :good:

Might want to fix that link there. As for your question about custom GB roms/kernels, I personally believe it's worth it. The performance gains from Linaro-compiled kernels (such as DooMKerneL or LuPuS-GB) more than justifies it in my eyes.

Ok.
Many people are focusing on NXT v1.3 custom rom.
I may have a try on that one later on with DoomKernel.
PS : link fixed by the way...

[Q] Gaming ROM (R800i)

My poor Xperia Play is getting on a bit and I think it's time to put it into retirement. I'm hopefully getting an Nexus 4 soon, but I want to hang onto my Xperia Play as a pure gaming device. Mainly emulators and such, but also supporting the touch pads if possible (particularly FPSE).
I want to give it the best ROM for this purpose, with a good balance of speed, stability, and support. Any suggestions would be welcome.

Any Gingerbread rom with a custom kernel capable of overclocking will probably be fine for gaming. ICS and Jellybean are more resource-intensive, thus decreasing the in-game performance on such roms.

All my games have ran perfect since switching to NXT Light Edition.

Thanks for the suggestions. I'll look into the ROMS suggested so far.
What's the situation with the touch pad controls in FPSE these days? Last I heard, a long while ago, they worked provided you were on an ICS ROM?

FPse touchpads work on GB/ICS now. Probably JB too

Just read my signature... No lags any more!!
I tested all roms for locked BL and that's the ONLY ONE that gave me the required performance!
Just thing what can you do with an unlocked BL!!
Cheers mate!!

Cola rom. Not sure if it works with 800i but if it does you'll love it.

[Q] What is the most full-featured 4.X rom?

I'm thinking about finally ditching the 2.3.4 stock rom that's served me well for so many years.
...but since I have been spoiled by 2.3.4, I'm coming in with some extremely high standards. I understand a lot of my Gameloft games will be broken, and I'm willing to come to terms with that.
Requirements:
- I don't want to sacrifice major hardware elements (touchpad/buttons, camera/720p recording, GPS, BT)
- Looking for battery life that will either match or exceed the famously spectacular battery life 2.3.4 users know of
- I'd like to have the new Xperia Play Game Launcher I've seen in the ICS previews
It's asking both a little and a lot at the same time... but with those requirements set in place, I'm not terribly picky about whether it's 4.0, 4.1, 4.2 or 4.3... as long as it's one of them.
Any suggestions?

Mission impossible...
Stock 2.3.4 firmware is most stable and fully-compatible for gamer like you.
And there are so many roms out there that you'll need a month to test them all...
I don't know what rom to recommend you, but i can say of some pros and cons of different ics/jb roms out there:
-Stock (Sony) based ICS roms are most compatible in terms of hardware features. Touchpads works in 90% of games (esspecially in gameloft games). All other hardware is almoust 100% in working state. But, ICS is little heavier in terms of memory managment, and whatever rom you choose, if you install heavy apps like facebook that are always on, you're gonna meet Mr.Lag very soon. Also, compared to stock GB, most of them have volume in around 90%, wich is acceptable. You can flash 480p Lupus kernel and getting some free RAM (fyi, 480p on GB is not same as 480p in ICS. Imho, in ICS, 720p looks like streched 480p). Also, there are few types of Stock (Sony) based ICS roms: ported from ics beta for play (little outdated), ported from Neo L's ICS (less features, but not so heavy) and roms ported from other devices (Arc, Ray, T, etc etc), with most features (including small apps)
-CM based ICS have (as all CM roms) lower volume in general (same as stock GB without xLoud), most touchgames works, some roms have problems with back/circle button
-I don't have much expirience with MIUI roms, i tested it few times, but didn't use it much (imho, it is little heavier on RAM, but it's eye-candy). worth a try, for sure
-JB roms are all CM10 based, generally have all features of CM (but not all features of sony apps). And even it works, on all JB roms there is lag when using touchpads. It is barrely noticeable at, for example, at Nova 3, but on heavy game like Modern Combat 4, framerate drop by 10 for sure.
If i missed any, i'm sorry, that is my experience from last (almoust) two years of testing/flashing roms in few words.
I guess you already know, but just for the sake of mentioning, check Xperia Play Index - ROM'S, FIRMWARE, KERNEL'S, GUIDE'S, THEMES, MOD'S. Smokerman had a great job of continuing Fma's work there.

Stay with gingerbread!
Almost all other roms out there are experimental and no one was able to perfect a fully compatible one, there's or there are bugs always! If in terms of gaming and overall performance, stay with stock gingerbread, root it and install a modified kernel, from there you can experiment further to even make it better!

im a big fan of ics+ myself
because i have some problems with gb that it doesn't support my router completely
i used most of ics roms around the forum and if you only need a rom full of futures use my Iridescent_Zed_One port but i wont suggest it for gaming or heavy using.
i turned on my hotspot shield on that and started web browsing and phone freezed completely(but gaming was fair enough for myself.i dont use my xperia play for gaming anymore.)
for gaming i will suggest you stock deblaoted rom without any tweaks

Well, I'm trying out xPlaystation v14 now. So far there's a lot I like, but it has this infuriating trend of randomly hanging for about a minute, and it happens frequently enough to where I'm probably gonna try out MIUI.
...if nothing else, just for a functioning Google Now,

Okay so I have MIUI now and OH MY GOD. It was like breathing new life into my Xperia Play.
I do have a couple questions though that I'd like to ask without getting into it's own horribly swamped topic.
1) Where can I access the Permissions Manager? I really need my Link2SD to survive
2) Can I customize the icons on the lock screen? If so, how can I?

[Q] Best rom for emulation right now?

I've decided to unearth my Xperia Play for some emulation (N64 and PS1). It's currently running Aurora Play 1.1, a GB based rom if I recall correctly. I have not used it for about 1.5 years, and was wonder what is the best rom now with the greatest performance with emulation for N64 on Mupen64Plus AE and PS1 on ePSXe. My phone antenna is broken so I will not be making any calls or texts, the device is purely for gaming/emulating.
I'm open to GB, ICS or JB roms but the touchpads need to function perfectly with no lags (I remember trying ICS roms and there was lag whenever the pads were used). Thanks for everyones feedback, I look forward to see what ROMs people are running and do the same things I do

High-five for being an Aurora Play user.
To my knowledge, for perfect functionality and performance, GB roms are still the best. Aurora Play is a little outdated now, especially that version, although there haven't been many fantastic advances since that rom was made in terms of GB rom performance. Vokal's GB to KitKat rom (something along those lines) is quite good, whilst I've not used it personally it was a damn good alternative to AP (better in some ways too) back in the day - I can only assume it's gotten better in the past year or so. I recommend giving it a shot.
I don't personally recommend any other Kernels aside from Doom and Wedges Kernel's to be honest - any others have originated from theirs anyway, and if they could've made them any better than they were they would've.

Thanks for your reply. I spent the last couple of days trying various ROMs. Tried xElite Gamer 2.0, but for some reason the touch pads were not functioning, as well as a couple of other ROMs. I've ended on Gin2KitKat which is what I think you're mentioning + extremekernel r3. That kernel interested me with its extra VRAM and higher OC if I needed it. This is perfect, the ROM is super fast and it almost managed full speed PPSSPP with 0 frameskip on Burnout Legends (and some games it does run). N64 is also great, SM64 runs full speed. On the previous ROMs, it gave me some stuttering sounds but that is totally not present on this ROM. I expect that the results with PS1 will be similar.

Yeah that's the one I was talking about. Nice one.
I have to say though, not so sure on the vram thing. Nice one anyway lol.
