hello i am running dixperia 2 gingerbread and thinking of updating i no longer use my play for gaming just as a phone should i update to ics jellybean or dont even update
There are no ICS or JB updates for the play.
BUT,
If ure talking about flashing roms, go for it.
I like JB better than ICS.
I think, the Unofficial ics release is very nice. Looks very greatly

Any major bugs in JB because ICS is laggy
I use UnOfficial ICS Test Release Xperia Play and most games work great!
Go for it. i switch between ics and JB. all the time and i find it really good. and it even runs better then stock.
nxt ver 1.3 best ever
Just do it, its very easy to do and you can go back anytime if you would like too. i would recommend Cyanogenmod 9 (stable) if you want ics and Cyanogenmod 10 (not stable) if you want jb.
I think the Unofficial ICS Update 1 is a great rom for everyday use, even for gaming. Very smooth and stable. You should try it.
Looking at GB roms, NXT 1.3 offers a great user experience with an excellent performance.
Unofficial ICS is laggy like hell. Go for Paranoid Android.

Laggy? My Play is running Update 1 with Lupus v8 kernel and I wouldn't consider it laggy.
As always, everyone has his own tweaks, apps and configuration so the user experience may vary, but this is a very fine tuned ICS rom.

Um, i havent installed anything. So much lags (animation lags + unstable).. PA is just 10 times better, faster and smoother.

This rom with the latest JB Adreno libraries (included in Update 1) and Lupus kernel is very smooth, but maybe I should try PA too.

Yes, Like Sony Is Doing
With Xperia Icons and Launcher + Walkman and Album and Themed Settings Thats My Idea
Like JJ Themed Sony To AOSP ill theme AOSP to Sony
I will call it Jader's JB and if u like I start ASAP
Use The Thanks Button, If You Get a Anwser Every Time!
i think These Rom Would Be Great.. But it Also Depends On Stability As CM10 is Still in its Alpha or Beta Phase { i dont konw Exactly}....
But u Should Go ahead With Your Project.

Hacking in HDMI and Sony Camera interface should be a priority! Is there an ideological reason why the CM guys can't get Cyanogenmod working? Can CM not be hacked so that it fits the Sony driver rather than hacking the Sony driver to fit CM?
I know this is a noob question bjt what is Chainfire? I heard before kn XDA TV but dont understand what is used for.... I also tried ro install the Chainfire 3D driver but my phone didn't boot after that... Now im currently using CM9 RC2.... Can i install the driver?

Its used gaming for gaming for better graphic and performance
Sent from my GT-I8150 using xda premium
From what I have experienced using it, is that it lowers down the graphic performance so that the game can run smoothly. Speed at the cost of high end graphics
Sent from my GT-I8150 using xda premium
It is a GUI modification software, it is capable of lowering down graphic details so that a certain program can run in lower performance phones. But it does not support most games though, I tried, uninstalled. It can even reduce quality of your launcher if you wanted to. But then your phone will look bad.
all the previous posts are relatively correct but ill just tell you one thing
chainfire 3D DOESN'T SUPPORT ICS ROMS (ur currently on cm9 which is ics)

the dev of the app was the one who said his app doesn't support ics or jb (it has no improvement when its installed and applied, no changes are done) so i guess if u can see any improvement using it on miui, u shall tell him

In a nutshell:
Gingerbread ROMs are known to have incomplete OpenGL ES support. 3D games *require* OpenGL ES. Chainfire 3D adds the necessary drivers to Gingerbread.

Thanks everyone for the BIG replies... Anyway I tried installing it on my CM9 ROM and it does work cos' i think i set everything to perfomance graphics and then when i reboot, EVERYTHING become distorted including the icons... Temple Run does work weirdly but it SO smooth using it... Now, due to my MASS flashing power, Im using MIUI and i will install Chainfire 3d

i've been using this app since my GB days with my wonder,,
and i can say that its working for me,,,
i've tried it with raiden legacy,, reduce to 16 bit,,, and now there's no white screen problem within the game compared to playing this one without chainfire3d
NICE! So in order to make gaming smoother, i have to reduce to 16 BIT? I tried with CM9 once and icons became distorted... :/ What configs do you use ?

Let's see what are the most popular ROMs for our Sony Xperia S!
FXP CM10
I tried many roms, yet I returned to stock pre-rooted .55. Maybe I'm noob, but I prefere stock Sony widgets and UI. Waiting for 4.1.2 from Sony.
PS Removed Facebook and TimeShift using RootUninstaller. Maybe it's placebo effect, but without FB my SXS is working faster

I wouldn't count on it...my experience has always been the ROM which comes with the phone on the day of its release, always stays the most optimized. Makes sense because while they're creating the phone from scratch, they're building the software for it. Afterwards they're focused on designing newer models and for the older ones it's just "patching" something to make it work on something it wasn't designed for. It will work and most of the time work fine but it's just not that smooth.
I'm using stock .55 rooted. I would love to use any CM based ROM but IMO the image quality is not up to par with Stock ROMS. I could live with a weaker camera quality, but the screen quality is not as good. And the screen is the most important thing. I'm not talking about Bravia, just feel the colors, gradients, etc. all seem much sharper in stock ROMs as opposed to CM based ROMS. Hopefully, when JB is released, those problems will be gone.
CM10.1 open semc 0.4... I tried them allbost all and i thint this one is the smoothest
rom stock, P.A.C soon
xzxperience 2, stock+ kernel

CM9 RC 3 (ICS), it has more free RAM than the stock ROM and games are smoother. Maybe you can flash custom GB ROM if u really like GB bcoz the UI is simpler etc.

mm...small addition, if I may. It's based on the preview version of CM10.2, not CM10.3, cause that hasn't been launched yet.
I am currently using AOIP 1.7 (yeah, I know I said 1.7, it's in testing). Why? Because it's awesome!!! Well, at least for me.

You've got literally a TON of JB ROMs in the Development section (up to Android 4.3, by the way) to confirm that yes, it can. And surprisingly enough they all run really well.

hey dud .....
well i find rootbox awesome ......... yeah although i like to deal with the eol roms but this one is great it makes you control your whole rom and i mean it the whole for me i guess
and in the end it is all up to you and your usage the GB is nice as you have been working with it for along time but you have forgot that the stock GB consumes alote of ram and it sucks when multitasking
so i prefer any custum rom you choose for your daily use thats all
sorry for my bad english
