im new to all this rom, kernel stuff, i was wondering if someone that already has a XperiaPlay pimped up could enlight my road..
as most of the users that have xplay im stock with 2.3.4
i would like to update to ICS without loosing any function on my phone( i know there is no ICS official ver for xplay), but also want to overclock it, so i can run the games better...
so what config, mod, rom, kernel and all that stuff do i need ? where should i start ?
If u r GSM user, just find latest ICS by markphyton on android development section,
It has almost everything working
U can use Doom's kernel for overclocking later on using app that can control CPU such as voltage control, setCPU or ROM tool box

thnx, im gonna start reading rite now, im gonna see what suits me better. its just that i have too much to read...
Using ICS to play games is the worst idea what you can do. Games arent supported on ICS so it will be buggy, unstable, maybe not working. Use Custom ROM like True Ancestor or Xperia NXT 1.2 and use setcpu (Xperia NXT ROM has it already overclocked to 1.4Ghz).. I dont know why you all people want ICS so bad. Im using Xperia NXT 1.2 and im so happy with it.
Howg.

i know Gingerbread is way better for gamming, its just that i wanna have the latest update, thats all. i will stick to a gingerbrear ROM.
wich is the best gingerbread ROM for hardcore gamming? without loosing wifi, camera, bluetooth, etc..
The stock ROM is perfect for gaming, just install DooMLord's kernel, overclock it @ 1.6 GHz, install SuperCharger V6 and Chainfire3D. This should considerably speed up the phone without sacrificing any of SE's preinstalled apps.

Tell me one thing guys. My Arc S is really smooth and it runs usually many games but then why does a small game like temple run lags on it?
Am i installing it wrong or so? (I have link2sd installed)
Temple Run isn't that small of a game. It's normal for our arcs to struggle keeping up with temple run. Our hardware is fairly old compared to other phones.

On my arc lt15i using GB Arconium and doom kernel no lag,tried the game,but too boring for me to keep playing it.
Sent from my LT15i using xda premium
It was stuttering and laggy for me too, but then after I flashed my current kernel, I have better experience, of course you should always check for malicious app running services that's hogging cpu time.
My current setup is in my signature.
Get Gingerbread.
ICS and JB ROMs are crap for playing.
Switch to GB man:good:

X-Gamer + DooMKerneL v22 @1.4Ghz = No lag, but Battery Drain.
I used this combo before chaging to Spart Charge ROM + KTG Anzu Kernel 1.52 @1.4Ghz which also rarely Lag in this Game.

When you unlock it,you'll get the best from your Arc.Then you'll see how good Arc is.Cheers
I am also having the same problem.
I installed .42 firmware with DoomKernel Version 22. Superb performance....no lags at all. Better battery. :laugh:
No lag using besttt's AOKP build 5, fusion kernel v3.5, baseband 77, oc 1600. :good:

i had this problem on my arc s then i researched it and found a little solution:
go to this link:http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=1337955&d=1348044534
then download and save on your memory card.
i recommend a back up then flash it.
this is a graphics driver will improve your graphics, reduce game lag(not completely), and make your arc s smoother.
dont thank me cuz i didn't come up with the idea
I can't seem to find a Rom that im just 100% happy with. I've tried various GB and ICS roms but still am not happy. I like to play the Asphalt racing series and every rom I've tried on still lags. My Xperia Play 4G I've had unbranded bootloader unlocked and have tried cyanogenmod 7 and 9, I've tried the official ICS, nxt, true ancestor, and various other roms. I don't understand swap file or swap partition usage. Im also a user of supercharger v6 script which im not sure if it actually works. Please advise me.

Gin2JB or Xperia NXT (i think that's the name). Try overclocking as well. If you don't like V6, you could unsupercharge and try RAM manager from google play store.

I've been using the official ICS Rom forever now but I've been missing game play when I get bored. So I'm heading back stock out of the box firmware with some tweaks and bloat removal of course.

what ICS Official do you use ? is this what you mean ?
i plan to flash this ROM to my Xperia Play , and i plan to unlock the bootloader of my device
what you mean missing the game play ? is the game play getting more laggy on that ROM ?
Yes thats the ics Rom im talking about. I call it official because Sony has been helping that developer finish it. But asphalt 6 and 7 lag on it but very playabe. GTA 3 is unplayable.(same with all ics roms) nova 3 lags. Gingerbread is just what our xperia plays are meant to run. PsXperia games converted for GB are also unsupported. Meaning only ps1 games can play on ics are the small list of officials from the store. so if you want a gaming phone stay with a GB stock or custom rom. Im using 2.3.3 stock with lupus kernel o.c. to 1500ghz and supercharged

hmmm so some games is still uncompatible with the ROM :crying: even the converted ps pocket games with PSXperia :crying:
but isn't ICS has improved memory management for running apps ? then why the game is more laggy & incompatible
based on your testimonial i guess i cancel my plan to unlock bootloader and flash this ICS ROM + custom kernel , for now
until markphyton can make the very stable release ( let's just hope so ) hehehe
i currently using Xperia NXT 1.3 KrisDee with stock kernel ( locked bootloader ), i found this stable custom ROM for GB and great gaming performance
but i have found a few small problem like , missing DLNA feature , cannot like track in music player ( like on facebook ) , cannot sync with senseMe & cannot charge the battery in OFF posistion
Ive had a bad experience gaming on ics. I dont necessarily say ics is unstable. It has came leaps and bounds from where it was on xperia Play its just I think these devices lack the extra hardware requirements. I.e. Cpu,gpu,ram. Gingerbread unfortunately being outdated is still the most stable for gaming. You can still achieve dlna by using es file explorer and setting up ftp with your router, pc. I access all my home files everywhere on my phone.

Unlocking your bootloader is still not a bad $20 investment. The test point method is simple, effective, and fast. You also might be able to find flashable addons for those other options you mentioned. Just saying. Im still happy im unbranded and can flash roms and kernels at my desire.

You wont be disappointed after unlocking your bootloader. I recommend the lupus GBv5 kernel and dont forget to flash the lupus wifi modules afterwards.

so Xperia Play HW is not good enough for ICS , hmmm so maybe the other 2011 Xperia product is laggy even on official ICS
yeah i want to unlocking the bootloader , is it worth for flashing other custom kernel ? is the differences is significant ?
and one problem is , i dont want to lose the DRM on my devices , so i prefer the testpoint method , but i find it hard to remove the sticker on the back of the phone it's very sticky , lol :laugh:

Its totally worth being able to flash custom kernel. Id say the changes are significant. And removing the sticker is the hardest part of the test point method. You wont lose drm either.

use legacy xperia rom as suggested above at best kitkat
That's my secondary phone so it's just rooted, I cannot flash that ROM. But even with stock ROM, this phone should be a lot faster, my old Xperia X8 was 3 time faster!
Is it possible that the hardware is somehow damaged?

Have you ever thought that older android versions require less RAM and resources to work as compared to their newer counterparts? Even if KitKat has been optimized to work on low RAM devices, it still has many functions that require more RAM and resources. It's that simple.
