[Q] any good Jelly bean-ROM for the R800i BL unlocked? - Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

As the title says.
And the ROM should be good for daily use and if it's possible, have the gamepads working.
Thanks in advance.
Best regards RazerBlader.

I would recommend express ICS ROM. Its really smooth and touch pads work. There are some nice jelly bean ROMs but games don't work very well. I also heard chrisds ics ROM is pretty nice. Just make a backup and try them to see which you like best. Also I would recommend turbo kernel 3.1 because it is compatible with all rom types and had multi boot.

Well, ICS and JB are having pretty much the same problems with the gamepad and touchpads.
If you are playing a lot then GB Rom like nxt LE would be the best.
If not then I know 3 good smooth roms.
PAC - with fireworks and sh*tload of options, the least smooth of these three (my favorite)
Turbo JB - half fireworks, half clean. Jellyzeus - clean jelly bean (there's not even percentage battery) but it's definitely the smoothest of all JB roms.
Kernel for GB option for max performance - lupus gb
Kernel for max performance in JB/ICS - Turbo kernel v3.1, no doubts.
Well, you can use GB with turbo kernel but it's not optimised for it and you'll get like 500-2k points more in benchmark if you'll use lupus gb for gb.
Current high score in benchmark is 8600 and average is about 6000.

Actually gaming is better on ICS than jelly bean because on ics i can play NFS and other 3d games while on jelly bean I hey extreme lag or game won't open.

I've tried both. PAC was nice and most games worked but I couldn't play NFS most wanted which I just bought a week ago so it made me not want to use it. Now I'm using ICS. Extreme ROM was probably the best ics one I've tried for r800x but I like the miui look and feel. Not sure if your question was asked to me but I responded anyway

Yeah it was, I guess you've had pac installed in slots 2-4,right ? If yes then your sd speed could not be enough, I've tried vc in the exact same rom but it was a lot flawless on the internal than on sdcard. Could you now flash pac on slot 2-4 (i assume you have 3.1 turbo kernel from your sig) and tell me what sdcard you've got because pac lags like hell for me in slots 2-4 even though I have class 10 uhs1 card and this problem has appeared recently for me, please post your results in the turbo kernel thread if you can also it would be perfect if this pac would be v6.1
Thanks in advance.

I run FreeXperia's CM10 FXP209 build on my Internal and I have Spizzy's AuroraPlay in Slot 1 of my SD Card. FXP's CM10 is pretty good at doing things. I can't give it a real analysis for gaming because I really have only ventured into emulation and Minecraft. Minecraft works pretty well, and emulation is almost flawless if you have the right emulators.
HINT: If you're looking for PS1 emulation, look no further than PSXe Android. It's far better than RetroArch.

I use krisdee's ICS rom with lupus stock gb/ics kernel have this for almost two weeks and i can say it is very good for everyday use

To me this is the best JB rom http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1952220

EVERY JB ROM FOR XPERIA PLAY STILL HAS TOUCHPAD LAG BUG. And still nobody discoverd how to fix it. But besides that, JB roms are perfectly working.
ICS and GB has almost the same compatibilty for games (of course GB has 100%). So, if your're priority is gaming stay on GB.
GB> install NXT Rom 1.3
ICS> install Hybrid Rom

Fastest Rom for Arc?

Wich is the fastest combination of kernel+rom for arc?
Thank you!
Sent from my LT15i using XDA
I'm using cm7.2 fxp115 of FXP and it's very fast and recommended
I havent arc, but xplay is similar. I can recommend u cm7 with doomkernel for cm7 (im using one for stock and its really fast after oc to 1.21 ghz) or arconium and doomkernel for stock.
Sent using r800i with DoomKernel v11 (1.21ghz)
I'm using CM9 with FXP kernel, fastest ROM I've ever used. It's even faster with DoomKernel ICS, but the WiFi doesn't work.
Miui is the best, ics is very bug slow xd
Wysłane z mojego LT18i za pomocą Tapatalk
CM7, Arconium 8 or MIUI(DiMiui or G-MIUI. They're Gingerbread roms both).
I don't recommend ICS yet because Sony hasn't released the code yet. There are some decent ICS roms though, but I'd wait.
Blend miui is better

doomkernel+arconium 8.1 is fastest for me
doomkernel+Xperia Mod 6 gives best combination of performance and battery life if you ask me.

Yup i have this setup and it is amazing
I've tested pretty much all the roms available for the arc.
Fastest ones IMO are:
GB: Acronium 8.1
ICS: JJ's Hybrid Rom V4
I'm using JJ's Hybrid Rom V4 atm and the speed and responsiveness for an ICS rom is amazing. Also it's really lite.

I agree that the battery life isn't amazing with JJ's ICS rom, but for me the battery lasts for about 36 hours (latest leaked ICS kernel and settings changed with no-frills cpu control) with moderate use (no games or streaming videos). About 12 hours less then a good GB rom but that's ok with me. As long as it can last at least a whole day without charging.

Best ROM for gaming on R800X?

I messed up on my last post :/
I'm looking for the best kernel & rom to use on my xperia play R800X, looking for something with all the features, good game compatibility, more free ram, and more free internal memory. Can someone point me in the right direction?:crying:
After trying few ICS Rom available for our phone, i came to conclusion that there's no better ROM for gaming on R800x beside GB ROM,
so now i'm using GBTweaked ROM + Doom's Kernel V2,
so far so good, Gaming with all compatibility, Bravia Engine, Overclocking ability and else... good internal memory & ram as well..
u still need to de-bloat some stuff though... especially if u r like me who didn't use verizon as carrier

Good information, would you say GB tweaked along with doomkernel V2 is better than the stock 2.3.3?

GB tweaked is based on stock 2.3.3 as the rom says its "tweaked." No big improvements other than its debloated and added A few changes to your build prop.

GB is the best for gaming
If you are a hard gamer i suggest a gaming rom
There is two gaming rom avalaible in the android development section
1- Simplified GB with SIII look
2- Stock Gaming XXLM8
If u want to have a nice look for a gb rom and play games i recommend the first one
If you just want to play game and the look doesn't matter with you
AND if you want overclock the phone, rom n.2 is recommeded
Press thanks if it helped.
ICS just because its faster and smoother.
I tried games on the GB ROMs but they always have some lag but when tested on CM9 it runs smoothly without the lag that was present in the GB ROMs.

and i havn't faced any problems with it, but CM9 was buggy for me. it's interface is powerful. i know
but for GAMING, GB is still better.
BY THE WAY. I have tested Gangstar RIO on CM9 and GB
on CM9 it was very laggy, freezes alot even when Swapping RAM + Chainfire 3D
on GB it rarely lagges without Swapping RAM or even Chainfire 3D

Thats weird because I tested that new NFS most wanted and it runs perfectly on CM9 the only problem I had with it is its boring as hell and Asphalt makes a better racer than NFS.

Will Lag like Hell on CM9 even after Swap RAM + Chainfire 3D
while on GB it have very small lag without any swap of ram or even Chainfire 3D
also the reason i say GB is better than CM9 in gaming is the RAM Usage of the system
I on my Custom ROM, i can get only 140mb used by system, so i have nearly 210mb free ram
on CM9 i can't even get 150 free ram

I don't make any ROMs or any other things for Android since i'm mostly a designer but even I know the basics of this stuff and why I will continue to say that CM9 the pure CM9 not the ROMs based on it is better than any GB ROM that can be developed now but I would be happy to take that challenge to see the limits of the ROM.

Best ICS/JB rom for gaming on r800x?

You can flash ICS or JB but be prepared to do extra "effort" to get phone service working on your r800x. There isn't really any best ICS or JB rom its all about user preferences. Use each one and stick with what you like. Be warned though when you install any ICS or JB be prepared to lose gamepad or touchpads or perhaps both. There is a gamepad and touchpad fix for ICS and JB but it doesn't work with most of the Xperia play optimized games out in the market.
ICS:
NXT ICS XPlay
JB:
SlimBean
or
CM 10
for the r800x ics aokp was good for gaming... that is if you remove some stuff... but I haven't tried any jb roms yet.

Slim bean was OK to use it did lag as most ics or jb roms do your best bet? Stay in gingerbread land games work the best on it

slim bean does have some lag but if you OC up to 1.2GHz with intellademand2 as the governer and noop as the I/O scheduler it runs with no lag at all...

Do you have the cdma version or gsm. If you have gsm Id recommend aurora play or gin2jellybean. They are both gb and have everything working. (Ginger bread is the only version with everything working). If you have cdma then stock would be the best and just theme it using one of attacks themes. There are plenty ics and jb roms but games don't run smooth on them so id recommend you to stay on gb.

battry life is great and touchpad and gamepads are working perfecly
and are you sure about true ancestor benchmark

yes im perfectly sure, i have customized this rom used it as a based applied, tweaked build prob, custom libs, and many more so far im getting 6000 on every test i run. and of course the battery life last me a long time, long enough to have a pokemon leveled up to 99 ahahahaha
still confused i dont know which ics rom has everything working dont wanna keep flashing i like games and at the same time need good battery life
I havnt tried atomic gb but i think its one of the best roms
Dixperia 2 is a little bit laggy and only the theme is customized. Its not good for gaming
gin2jellyabean is the best rom
