Hello, noob here.
I've been testing out several games for my Xperia Play (R800x) and when i've been trying to play Dead Trigger, I noticed that the Xperia Play's hardware controls do not work for the game, instead, it only let me uses the touchscreen to play the game. I tried messing around with the Touchpad Activator, but to no avail. I couldn't find a thread on this, so I made one here.
Currently, my Xperia Play has:
Turbo Kernel v3.1
PAC-man version 2013-01-28
and it's worked with several games such as
Minecraft Pocket Edition
Mupen64 Free Edition
Modern Combat 3
Battlefield Bad Company 2
I couldn't find any other way to fix this, as I am too nooby to do this. Please post some advice for me to fix this, thanks! And i'm sorry if I waste your time trying to find the solution to this problem, or waste a thread instead of searching through the Xperia Play area throughly.

Hey guys,
I'm considering getting an Xperia Play as my daily driver and using my Samsung Infuse as my "GalaxyS Touch", but I was wondering if a couple games are available.
Has anybody seen the Tony Hawk games available for this? How about Spyro? Ridge Racer Type 4? also, can the game buttons be mapped in NESoid? Aaaand my last question, is it possible to load your own PS1 games onto the device? I'm sorry if some of these questions have already been asked. I did use the search function first, seriously!
As of now the only PS1 game out in the US is Crash Bandicoot which comes with it. There have been some other releases that show on the Android market but can't be downloaded unless your phone is rooted.

That said, you can convert many PS1 games as long as you have the disc to work with the phone using this method, its free:

I believe people are using the control pad with the "oid" emulators as well.
Hi and good day to all
(this is my 1st post actually)
just got the Xperia Play last week and just sold my old galaxy5 .. been browsing the forums and upgraded it to the latest firmware and kernel(thanks Mr DoomLord!)..
that's why it also inspired me to create an account and be a part of this forum rather than lurking.. anyway,
I saw some games for the xperia play and its all great but
I'm not quite familiar with the playstation pocket feature.. and the're also what they call FPSE and Psx4Droid, and cant seem to understand how to use them or which to use, right now im just playing the stock Crash Bandicoot shipped with it.
Can someone advice what's best to use or the easiest to setup because Ive tried to check those emulators and got me all confused with mixed opinions from people on other forums..
Thank you very much for your time

Ok Playstation pocket is and app that list's all your bought "official" playstation games. If you launch the app and click on the search icon, a list of all available games to buy will be listed although there are not many yet.
Both psx4droid and FPse are playstation emulators. FPse is by far the more superior of these applications, I am yet to find a game that dosent run pretty perfectly on FPse. To use these emulators legally, you need to first rip the bios from your PS1 into .bin format, then rip any game you wish to play into .iso/.bin/.cue/ect.
Thanks Androhero!
Okay! Will try FPSE!
Is there already a free downloadable links for this?
I'm excited to play FF7 and MGS1 ! Thanks!
Hi!
I have been playing a lot of emulators on PC during the years. But is right now thinking of buying an Xperia Play, because I understand that it´s quite a nice phone. It´s on quite a sale in scandinavia right now, so I might be getting one during the week.
I would however like some input for some questions, and would be thankful if someone would take their time to answer them for me.
1. I have problems finding a reliable compatibility list for PSX-gaming. Three of the games that I really itch to play are "Alundra", "Final Fantasy Tactics" and "Legend of Mana". Can someone please enlighten me how these games will run on a Xperia Play?
2. I also have a question about other emulators. Will SNES & Genesis-emulators run lag-free on an Xperia Play?
Thank you for reading (and maybe answering) .
The Xperia Play is really awesome for playing games in emulators. The only problem is that most of them don't support the touchpad.
These are the emulators I've tried:
NESoid
SNESoid - completely lag-free, to answer your question
N64oid (sometimes a bit laggy)
GBCoid - gameboy color emulator
GameBoid - GBA emulator
FPse - PSX emulator
Unfortunately neither of these support the touchpad. And for PSX games I actually prefer FPse to the official PSX emulator that comes with the Play, because, while the official one supports the touchpad (very nicely, might I add), it is a bit buggy with most games that aren't available officially for it.
not sure about genesis as i haven't tried it yet. snes is no problem as is gameboy/advance/colour. on the psx side of things, you could try fpse or psxdroid for emulators. you would need the roms for those games you want as well as the bios file. or, you could also convert the roms of those games to work via the play's playstation pocket app. the pre-installed crash bandicoot game will give you an idea of how smooth it is once converted using the psxperia tool.
This is a magnificent device for emulators. Nuff said
sent from my Xperia PLAY using XDA Premium
I have emulators for Yongzhi's emulators for:
-Gameboid - GamBoy Advance
-SNEWSoid - Super Nintendo
-Gensoid - Genesis
-FPse - PSX
-N64oid - N64
And they all work flawlessly and are availble at the SlideMe market for FREE except for the N64 and PSX emulators. The PSX emulator is avaible on the Android Market and works on a lot of games but of course not all of them. I would suggest you visit the FSpe forum to find out which specific games work for the Play.
The N64 emulator is available from the SlideMe market for I think 2 bucks. I works okay with some games but is still be updated. Also u can try the open source one but I forget what it's called. I think it's on the XDA forum somewhere.
Hi everyone,
Is it possible to get GameLoft games working with FXP? I'll be honest, I'm not using the latest (Don't want to entirely reflash :-( ) but has anyone had any experience getting it to work?
I have Dungeon Hunter 3 and Sacred Odyssey - these are the two I'd like to get working with the Xperia Play controls I had a look around, couldn't find any solid answers without using a different ROM, but I really like this one!

Sorry, until now you can't. Because of Sony's closed source.

Hello everybody! In my first thread I already would like to ask if anyone have experienced similar things on Xperia Play. I have SonyCM 10 Final installed, as well as LuPuS_zeus_jBv13-full and after that I found out that some games that should work properly with my touchpad... well, they don't. I got Metal Slug X and 3 installed, Pocket RPG, N64 and SNES emulator, and they work flawlessly with my touchpad. But I installed games like Chaos Rings and Eternal Legacy and they do not recognize the touchpad. Well, those are Xperia Play optimized games, but I read that they had already problems when playing on android 2.3.3+. So is there anybody that experienced same problems? Or is there a fix of some kind?
Also I applied the O button fix, but the 'keypad-zeus.kl' reverse itself to default values (back instead of button B)... WTH?
And btw - is there any update for the things I have 'onboard'? I included screenshot (it's in Polish, but it's pretty clear) of the things I have.
Ask - if I missed something, I'll gladly answer! ^^

I recently got a play.... I couldn't get the touch pad to work at all in cm7 (shame coz im a fan of cm7)
Im now using gin2jellybean ROM and the touch pads work fine on all the games iv tried
I haven't tried Chaos Rings or Eternal Legacy tho
Still nothing... It's kind of sad that there's no workaround or solution for this problem... I can't play many games because when I press Square or Triangle, the X button is virtually pressed as well...

Have you tried using this?

Yeah, and it was a no-go... I'm even thinking of reversing to original android 2.3.4... but is it worth it even? I'd love to have 4.1.2 and play game normally, without lag or multipress issues...
