[Q] NEW ROM, I need your opinions!! - Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey Everyone
I have recently started developing my first ROM, it will be GB for maximum gaming performance on the Xperia PLAY - I may add support for more devices later on.. If i can lol - I am a newbie developer after all
I don't want to reveal too much about the ROM itself, but let's just say, I'm almost certain you'll like it.. Or at least try it
Basically, for one of the Add-ons, I will be including games in a zip that you can flash through CWM and I would like to know;
Which games would you like?
I will not be sharing any cracked versions of games however! I will only use games that are free to install anyway!
So, please comment and let me know

You should make a zip with all of best emulators. But for games I think its better for everyone yo just install what they want

Instead, u should add titanium backup so everyone can restore their own games.

That's what I was thinking, but I thought I would see what the majority of people said before making any decisions..
I will include the emulators though
About the emulators though; which are the best free ones? I haven't used emulators in quite a while

Ok two things i dont get and why i wont update yet is....
1 Whats psXperia? is it when i slide out the game pad and it autostarts? is that psXperia?
2 If it is why on earth would se pass an update that would render the plays main feature unplayable???
PsXperia is an emulator which can convert psx Roms into apk/zpak format so that you can play psx Roms on your play.. however, SE patched the loophole in 2.3.4..

But FPse supports many file types, does PsXperia run games that FPse doesnt??
Go google a bit =) the onboard playstation is something made by sony themselves, obviously would be a much better emulator.. if u google it, you would find the comparison between the graphics of two emulators, PsXperia looks much nicer

There's plenty of threads discussing this topic. If you refuse to google use the search feature on this site. Browsing the xp dev section will also answer your questions.
Psxperia utilizes the analogs. Some games work some don't, trial and error bro.

Emulators (snes, psx, etc)

I came across this thread that hasn't been updated for over half a year but still applies.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1173601&highlight=emulator
It includes all those awesome Emulators that were removed from the market that can be found on SlideME now
a couple updates
I use DroidEmuROMGet to search and dl the roms
for CPS2 all those CAPCOM arcade games go here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1483303&highlight=cpsemu
for NeoGeo go here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1402986&highlight=cpsemu
for psx use fpse
if anyone else would like to recommend other apps, I'm all ears.
I seriously spent hours playing a bunch of games @[email protected]
Nice! Thanks for putting all of this in one place. Time to play some old school games!

No problem! I haven't looked into emulators since the mt4g days and I noticed a lot of emulators and apps to find ROMs went missing from the market. Searched and came across that goldmine. very informative and they all run smoothly, the fpse works pretty well too. only played ff9 and castlevania sotn on it so far.. buttons are kind of hard so gonna look into the sixaxis controller soon.
btw i recommend the capcom and neogeo emulator. AWESOME!
Where can I download roms for these emulators?
Edit: NM just read your whole post..
I cant figure how to make the emulator work. I've d/l some csp2 roms and can't figure how to play them. Can someone give me a quick tutorial?

you can always check the original thread.
what i do is simply download the ROM launch the emulator, search for the ROM and play.
you have to choose the actual full sized games, some are considered as "CLONES" and don't work properly. the games are usually bigger than 5mb, if one is about 1MB then i suggest finding another.. and i think the ones with the letter "u" at the end are also clones, not exactly sure.
so...
1. download rom
2. launch emulator
3. search for downloaded rom
4. insert coin and start!
From what I've read our stock rom will not allow us to use the sixaxis or wii controllers. There is a problem with the stock Samsung bluetooth stack. We can flash a CM or ASOP rom which will change the stack. However, that also removes MHL functionality as far as I know.
I'm currently using FPSE and playing some old Final Fantasy VII. Also have snesoid going.

Hi guys
I have a xperia play and am going to root it again tonight ( I got stuck on sony ericsson screen after tryn darkforest rom.) after I have rooted I wanna put a 4.0 rom on it is there any stable 1s if not can you guys recomend me a few decent 1s that wont affect me using my games.
Would be gratful of any help thanks guys

I think most of the 4.0 Roms are still in alpha or beta stage and have some features missing so I'd say wait until the official ICS update is released, then see what people do with it.
What games are you intending to keep?
Just using anything but a stock based Rom makes PlayStation Pocket disappear as I found out yesterday Crash Bandicoot still works though
Last Rom I used (aside from my current CM7) was T.E.A.M Rom. Its just a modified stock Rom
Sent from my R800i using XDA
Well I got fifa 12 tiger woods 12 stuff like them mate. Yea I did read somfin like that somwhere. So think I will wait for 4.0 and will have a look at that t.e.a.m. Rom see how that it I wanted cm7 but it just wouldnt install installation kept aborting was tryn for over a week lol
Sent from my R800i using xda premium
I got CM7 up straight away but lost PlayStation Pocket lol
Really annoyed me as I'd just installed the PlayStation Network Store thing (the new PlayStation Store) and paid £3.99 for RayMan which I now can't play until a stock based ICS Rom comes out
ICS is apparently due on the 19th roughly so not too long to wait
Sent from my R800i using XDA
So would that mean I cud get crash team racing lol rayman is cool aswell. Will have more of a look into cm7 like hopfully will get somwhere
Sent from my R800i using xda premium
Well if you flash cm7 you lose the PlayStation Pocket app
I'd suggest getting a PlayStation emulator like fpse anyways. There's only a few titles that don't run properly
Sent from my R800i using XDA
Well I just found out my fifa is only a trial now after the probs av had it was full version before that lol. I did have that but I am usless with emulators lol they never work for me lol

Is it not possible to backup the PlayStation app with titanium backup then restore it on cm7?
@Scouse83 as for custom roms have you unlocked your bootloader?
As alot of the custom roms require custom kernels which in turn require an unlocked bootloader

There is 400mb internal storage but with an 8gb SD card. So you could move apps to SD cars but the apps have to be supported to have app to SD feature. And depending on what carrier you get the xperia play on you will or will not have the PS store.

Granted, it's not on the Q&A Forum, but I've always used this thread as a good guide to quality apps. Yes it's a bit old, but a lot of the apps have been updated recently. I have tried most of the apps on there, but haven't kept all of them.
