[Q] Gingerbread ROM with ICS goodies - Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Is there some ROM which has ICS features like swipe to delete notification or at least looks like Ice cream sandwich which is also good in gaming.
I was using Markphyton's ICS but its too slow since I also have to use my smartwatch and I now find gingerbread ugly

Gin2JB is what you're looking for.

It looks good but it is written 2.3.4 in heading while 2.3.7 in screenshots what is it actually? and is it good for gaming?

Im searching for a stable, completely stock looking, fast and lightweight rom. Something like cyanogenmod but with stock look.
Thanks

I dont want half sense half stock experience. I want full vanilla android gingerbread. No custom themes, launchers, apps and stuff. Just vanilla gingerbread like on nexus s.
So i did further research and found rom called desired aosp, that was exactly what i was looking for. But the problem is that its no longer maintained and it has bluetooth problem. Anyone can recommend something similair to what desired aosp rom had?

If you want as good as it gets Stock Rom, Try RCMix. Comes Super Stock Look, feel, & has the options to change small tweeks for personalized function like a battery percentage, the ability to turn on features like 3d effects, etc.
It also has awesome support by development, &other users.
Don't settle untill you've tryed the RCMix Rom.
I forgot, you wont see it on the front page, so here it is: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1261721 or use rom manager to download a rom & find it in there under RCTeam RCMix. The Newest Version is in apparently in the finishing testing stages & should be available soon. These roms are released with minimal issues due to the extensive testing by the devs.

Why don't use it and just use any launcher you like?

i thick the best rom now is ICS & JB remix .
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1884958
Arconium Gingerbread, because it is based on Gingerbread, that's all, no gimmick "SUPER FAST SUPER STABLE FASTER THAN LIGHT".
Go gingerbread until an official JB update from sony or fixed ICS BY SONY.
(+DoomKernel V22)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1780316
May only be an alpha but it's so fast, it's jelly bean and all the bugs are instantly fixed by besttt. The legend. New updates every Monday from fxp. Besides, cm is pretty much pure android. Its beautiful.

You can use some ROMs with jelly bean tweaks,status bar, libs...etc.
Below are some of them:
If you don't care about graphical user interface ,defintely JJ hybrid rom is great (fast - compatible with games - has ROM control as well) ,few bugs though like wifi hotspot http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1537717
If you care about having nice user interface with reasonable game performance with lots of free ram available you can try Jelly sandwich http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1836993 or the Remix http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1884958
Also Xperia Purness worth a try as well http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1788701
For the Kernel i always advice to use stock kernel in order to avoid battery drain issues.
Regards

For jb try paranoid and cm10
try all and you will get the answer
but i vote for CM10 or Jelly remix
forget about ICS and JB. Try GB X-gamer + doomkernel v22

[Q] [Arc S] Which is best mod ROM? Stable,light,fast, secure?

Hi everyone,
I bought an Arc S for 10 days.
t 'a great terminal, but I can not notice that with the stock rom, after a small number of installed and apps moved to SD, the rom has some spots, lags, and the free ram (of his already poor) falls always below 100mb (and I do not use facebook, twitter, or whats'up Timescape real time notification).
I have root my phone, and removed some unused system app. I have used "autostarts" to disable unuseful app that starts at the boot, and using a task killer to free memory. When I use the task killer (FAST REBOOT PRO) I have reached 160 mb free max.
At this point, I would switch to a modified rom because I read that there are stable versions, in which everything works fine (camera / video included).
What do you recommend?
It 's my main phone, and I need that everything works and that does not have bugs.
I use it to take pictures, video, navigate 3G/WiFi, and as a navigator using Navigon.
What rom do you recommend to install for this phone fully functional but more powerful (of course ICS or Jelly Bean)? and Which kernel?
XperienceD said:
All these threads below are asking the same thing, "What's the best", and the general consensus is that there isn't a "best", it's all about personal preference. And given how many ROMs and kernels there are you'll be hard pushed to find someone that has been able to use them all to give a significant review between the differences.

If you leave as is, it's pretty good. A very little battery drain but if you know how to tweak it, it's even better.

What are you saying lol slimbean has the aokp tweaks and customization and it's 89mb, super jb is 125mb and doesn't have interface tweaks at all..
It's about tastes, you have to search for what CM suits you, or if you want stock features, Ultimate HD based on stock.

Hey lad, i wrote it as example to make it easier to understand.
Last time i tried slim bean (long time ago) it was heavy and had its own slimbean logo etc etc.
Super jb got xperia z style status bar and launcher.
I also wrote that it was all up to OP
your post was senseless...

Yeah, favoring superjellybean. If you're gonna tell an advice about ROMs, at least be neutral if you're not going to say the actual truth or give correct "examples" as you say. The xperia Z thing is something relatively new, it actually looks like ICS imo, and xperia's launcher isn't the best thing ever, let's be clear on it, on my side, I ran away from ICS stock because I didn't liked the statusbar at all, it's ugly compared to JB blueish/samsung's. (totally my own opinion). You did wrote that, but like saying "But hey.. This one has things but it's bad, this one too but it's bad, use this one." Not the first time I see that kind of advertisement...
Look, thanks to FXP we have CM available. The "official" is the second one you mentioned, that's the base for the other CM10 ROMs such as Super Jelly Bean, SlimBean, Racing Bean, etc. If you want the cleanish thing to start from scrach, download the official one, if you want things added "after-market", go search at the Arc/s Android Development forum and give the CM10 roms a try, I hope that answers your question~

Actually i did it,but this is kind of old - i think the newest roms will be better and more stable. I can be wrong,but i dont like to have old software on my phone
For now i am using Xplaystation GB v2 and.. Looks good,smooth UI,good performance,no bugs for now. But one thing makes me mad - the lock screen. Is there any addon to change lockscreen for looks like JB/ICS?

Same here, no mater what I will always go back to stock GB with tweaks, its the fastest by far all Roms, most battery efficient and honestly it feels more like YOURS as u know what u did to it, and not someone else's tweak/mods to it,
