Can someone recommend me a ROM - Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Recently ive been looking for ROMs that suit my style but its hard to find them so im hoping u guys could help me.
I want it to be/have:
ICS
Smooth
Stable
Bugfree (Or nearly bugfree)
Full working touchpads and gamepad
And it will also be great if it was AOSP styled but it doesnt really matter. Got any thoughts?
Thanks in advance.

Try tho official beta from Sony
Or
Xdark ics by xdark mario
They are both very stable and smooth with no bugs and they have full touchpads and gamepad support.

Slim. (I know it is a JB rom)
Bug free
CM Theme Manager
Touch pads work e.t.c
Smoother than all of ICS Roms
I used it on my play 4 months ago before it broke back then and I had no issues so stable.

Hmmmm.....
I wanna use slim, but people say battery life isnt so good on ICS and its worse on JB.
So im not sure...

From memory it lasted about 5 days on idle on slim ROM
And about 2-3 days on light usage 1h Day

but is it more stable than extremerom or ics??

Like I said I used it last 4 months ago but never had problems/issues with it.
Ever since I got my play repaired I only used it to develop my rom.
Therefore I dont know what is in the new update recently done to Slim.
The new test version of my rom lasted me 8 days on idle.
And I have it for a year = used battery so it probably could hold longer than that.
However still speaking of Slim I really recommend it, smoothest JB ROM on our play.

which are the best ROM for arc/arcs xperia mod/arconium/cm7

hey guys any idea which is best for you?
The best stock based ROM is imo Acronium, but I like CM7 more.
Sent from my LT18i using xda premium
nice love CM7 too
Stock+tweaks is the best! Since you can utilize all features of your phone with stock only! Hence acronium or xperia mod gets my vote. Both of them are nearly identical since they are based on stock ROM.
What's better:
xperia mod or arconium?
Just tried arconium and I'm liking it so far.

My vote is for se-tweaked

No the best ROM is SE Tweaked 0.8.5 compaed to any other stock or custom build. Team it with Doomkernel and you have a superb lag free fast phone.. For me CM always appeared dull compared to the stock ROMs. And typical to any CM ROM it had missing features and poor battery.

With cm you also cant use the keyboard in landscape properly without hammering the space bar key which is pretty retarded imo. Also the camera sucks. Im on stock with doom kernel personally. I had a look at arconium but couldn't really see any benefit over stock rom same with xperia mod. Might give se tweaked a go though.
what about stock .62 ? anyone used it ?
Which are the best ROM for battery??? Arconium, xperiamod or se tweaked??? Only expert please and one reason thanks

I have used Arconium with doomlord kernel for few weeks now. Very good battery usage in my average use (2 days usualy). I tested few roms and always went back to stock, before I found Arconium.
SoftWhite MIUI! I love it!
i Use FXP104 an i love it, the only think i dont like is that the batterie lasts not very long
my vote for Arconium with DooMKernel
..fast, no lags, and battery drain is excellent
I'm happy with stock 042 but I'm thinking to give a try to Arconium....
Do it
I regret that I waited till I tried it, it's AWESOME!

Can I add the Bravia Engine and SE camera app in Arconium?
can any of these roms be installed on a rooted & recovery installed but LOCKED BOOTLOADER Arc S?? reason i ask is that i used to use a W8 & i didnt unlock bootloader on that but i was still able to flash custom roms in it......i m really very apprehensive about unlocking bootloader in case i brick it or something

Best rom for gaming?

I use stock version .62 with doomkernel v13 and it doesn't feel very smooth.
What's currently the best smooth, bugfree, stable, fast rom for mainly purpose of gaming and searching the web, with an acceptable battery life?
I tried myself some roms like JokaWild, True Ancestor and Darkforest I think but they all had something I didn't like
Thanks in advance
stock GB rom..

JokaWild is the fastest and has great battery life.
It's also bugfree.
if you didn't like the way it looks (I don't) try flashing a theme.
Nabeel_Nabs has a great ICS theme.
Thomassafca has a bunch of nice ones.

Seeing as we have OnLive, I really fail to see why people bother with the Play Store and Xperia Optimised games.
Then again, I guess it depends on your net connection.
More on topic, just use stock and RAM Manager set to Hard Gaming

I use JokaWild v2.5 with v13 Doomkernel and its very fast. No bugs. -36 Baseband. Great Battery Life. All games are smooth on it.
I tried ICS and I went back to it because my games didn't run as good, some were choppy.
I haven't tried TrueAncestor yet, I'm fine with JokaWild and am going to stick with it
Use JW 2.5 or use DiXperia monster, that's the one I like best. It's very bloat-free and fast. I have no lagged in Asphalt 6 at all with doomkernel v14 and this rom.

Most STABLE ICS rom?

Hello guys i have been trying a few ICS roms now but i still wondering how i can get the most stable ics experience.
The best ive got now is like 2 phone crashes a day. I am useing the Krabappel rom (KA)
Id like to have ics for the touchpad functinality in fpse.
Oh another question, is it possible to get the xperia play gamepad working with onlive on ice cream sandwich? It worked perfect on gingerbread.
Thanks for your time.
May I ask why you want ICS? Gingerbread is perfect, why upgrade to a buggy beta? Compatibility sucks on ICS.
If you care about your games, the best thing to do is stay on gb. The only stable ics roms are cm9 based with no touchpads working. Some games actually detect that you have an xperia play and show you the control schemes but the touchpads won't work.

He didn't ask about the compatibility, he asked for the most stable ics rom.
Besides, fpse will only work with ICS beta released by sony. Only ics beta has different touchpads implementation. But the beta is very slow, laggy and pissing off.

NXT v1.2 with DooMkernel. I honestly can't speak highly enough of it. If you choose it I suggest you flash the accompanying add-ons as well. Contains some kind of new Timescape layout that looks brilliant
First page of the dev section if you wanna look for it

FXP125 works much better than AokPlay for me
Aokplay is amazing, especially now with the touchpad fix. However some games don't work at all.
Try Darkforest ICS. I tried almost all of the ROMs in the past few days, and that worked the most smoothly. Anyway Gingerbread still works better, so now I'm on Gin2ICS 1.7.7. Sadly the touchpads doesn't work properly in Order and Chaos with any of the ICS ROMs.

best ICS rom to date?

Hey all!
Just curious, what are the current best ICS roms? Im currently on stock GINGERBREAD and ready to take the jump to ICS. I always thought CM9 was the best, but I've heard its still a little unstable and slow/laggy. What are my other options??
Thank you~

combined with Turbo Kernel, it give great experience
Yeah i was curious myself i just got a cdma r800x on order wanna gonna upgrade it when i got it never expected to see so many different rom options lol so none of ics is good for gaming? Which ones are, i dont think ill ever use phone side of device (least for now) but ill be using all game settings wifi bluetooth gps all buttons etc and pretty much everything else maybe phone down road... any good suggestions?

Why CM9, CM10

* * ​First of all I tried CM9 (Maclaw's version) and I like it very much, but there is a lot of bugs which make it non-stable and not daily use rom.
So, why you guys want to port, create and use something that is not finished, stable and with broken apps and stuff? And plus CM9/10 are not, and probably won't be able on Gio ever.
We don't have official CM7 yet, but CM7 is much more stable then CM9/10.
I just don't understand why would someone use his phone if i.e. bluetooth, camera, and other stuff don't work properly or don't work at all.
Of course, if you can make CM9/10 to work i.e. like CM7 it's ok, but I see a lot of new roms, and they are all based on CM9/10 which means that they are not working properly so again I'm wondering why would someone use it.
This is an open discussion so feel free to express your own thoughts and opinions. :good:
p.s. I'll go to bed now, so I'll read your thought tomorrow. :fingers-crossed:

maybe cuz they dont use their phone as camera, or never use bluetooth.
I havent had cm10 on my gio.
I still stuck to GB.
Sent from my GT-S5660 using xda app-developers app
I somewhat agree. While it's nice to have the latest bells and whistles on our phones to test out, they will never fully work. I've had my Gio for over a year, about first month of it I used stock. I'd already forgotten what a stable phone looked like and decided yesterday to try a stock based ROM. It's really fast and everything seems to be working flawlessly. It's a shame there aren't more gingerbread/stock based ROMs under active development. I think I'm gonna use it now, but I will check back to JB roms to see how new updates work.
I think because they r different. I m bored with stock n cm 7. I need a change and u 9 that change is good but still a galaxy gio
Sent from my GT-S5660 using xda app-developers app
Well it depends on everyone how they use their phone but for me Maclaws CM9 RC1 is still the best ROM and optimized for my daily use even though camera doesnt works which isnt a big problem for me cuz I dont use. Yet My battery doesnt last long because of this and i feel that i have -ed my phone features.

I'm enjoying Jelly Bean (AOKP) on my Samsung Galaxy Gio. I think it's so beautiful that I can't go back to a stock-based ROM. Also, I do really like Google Now, and as that is only working in Jelly Bean, it is an extra reason for me. But yes, I miss a lot of functionality, although I don't use the camera much. Sometimes my phone reacts too late, but I think it's worth it. So I am very happy there are devs for ICS and JB.

...time to make a bugfree CM9/10. :)[/QUOTE said:
I got my Gio with 2.3.6 (or was it 2.3.7?), a late gingerbread version. it worked so far, but was slow with scrolling and opening apps. when first trying the maclaw cm9 it got a lot smoother, faster. that was a real progress, apart from that the camera was not working and other bugs. also, with rc2 bluetooth got broken again, very annoing.
so i discovered jellaxy and tried all the aokp, cm9, cm10. I dont need the latest features, so cm9 would be ok for me; but cm9 seems not so stable than cm10. aokp seemed nice, but no profiles and no lockscreen app configuration.
of course, with that amount of memory i have to use a swap partition and link2sd, but I think I get the most out of this cheap handy.

Biggest problem with JB are the omxlib so use cm9 AOKP and you get a nice ROM with almost everything working.

I agree with you. Devs should develop GB roms, because our phones were made to run in GB for some reason (other than company profit) and it's so stable. You can use any GB rom for everyday use because there aren't any problems in modding it.
We have cm7, miui, lewa os and stock samsung gb rom, gb development is complete, now let's go at next step ,ics require same specs of gb, jb requires only some fixes ( adreno lib and omx), so for now ics is like phiexz cm7 at starting, all that is working is working better than stock, the other thing have to be fixed, but as you can know, in ics only camcorder have to be fixed, I wanna just say, wait a month and then i will bet that you will switch to ics
