Hi guys,
i´m new to the play, and have some questions:
1. it is only a problem with my play, that the snes emulator (snesoid)
runs not at fullspeed?
looks like it runs at 20fps with sometimes under 20fps...
i think, this cant be... with my droid it runs very smooth.
2. i´m on 2.3.4 nordic android, is it possible to oc the cpu?
phone is rooted and bootloader is unlocked.
thanks for reading and many thanks for a reply
Yes, use doomlord kernals and download setcpu to phone to overclock. Snesoid should run smooth without ocing cause I can't and it runs smoothly on me. I would mess with the options in the emulator.

Hey all. I just got my play's bootloader unlocked and recently installed CM7.2.0 - FXP103 on my play. I was wondering if it's possible to play ps1 games with that ROM or do i have to flash back to stock?
Thanks
Yes, you can, with the FPse emulator.
so u can't use Psxperia then?
i was looking at PSXPeria...would that work?
PSXPERIa is working on our xperia play , but doesn't support touchpad !!
you only can use directions and this is the reason the i never use CM (( wish touch pad work on ICS ))
Yes, you CAN use PSXPeria, but it's development has been stopped...
I have flashed Cyanogenmod and it worked fine, but I noticed the gamepad was not working. Also my WiFi doesn't work anymore. Would flashing a new ROM that is based on stock fix my WiFi and gamepad issues?
What model of Play do you have? I'm using CM7 with R800a and they both work.
Also, you DID flash the kernel as well right?
gamepads don't work for the gameloft and EA games; for the wifi have you tried to add manually one connection first?
After installing a game that was converted with PSPXperia, it's no longer showing Crash Bandicoot. Even after uninstalling the game that was converted with PSPXperia.
I've tried uninstalling the Xperia Play Launcher app and Crash Bandicoot and re-installing it through Titanium Backup. No luck.
Edit:
I'm contemplating giving up on this stock ROM anyway. Only reason I kept it was for the launcher. Any ROM recommendations? What would be the best without any loss in functionality and still runs PSx games and such well?
Tried restoring the Crash Bandicoot APK from my CWM backup, still no luck...

Did you remove the PSXperia game? Is it showing up in your launcher or in the PS pocket app? If you wanted a new rom and you have a locked bootloader I would use Xperia NXT v1.2 If not I would look into flashing a custom kernel and trying out one of the ICS builds like FXP or AOKP.

Indeed, I removed the PSPXperia game before doing all this, after realising that Crash Bandicoot, nor the PSPXperia game were showing in the Xperia Launcher app.
It's showing up in the app drawer; it's just not showing up in the Xperia Launcher app. Don't think I have access to the PS Pocket app, due to it being r800x with Verizon and whatnot.
I do have an unlocked bootloader, which of those two ROMs would be ideal for gaming?
Edit:
I read something about a "GB True Ancestor" ROM, what's that about?

The NXT rom is a Gingerbread rom that looks like the new Xperia theme. It is great for gaming and is a fast rom. I used the True Ancestor rom in the past and it was great, but was lacking some visual features I enjoyed from the NXT rom. I am currently using AokPlay and it has had great gaming performance, despite it being ICS. I primarily used FPSE for playstation gaming and on ics it has full touchpad support.

Would there be any way to get the True Ancestor ROM to work on CDMA, or is it GSM only?
Thanks for all the help, by the way,
Also, I tried to update the baseband version while still on 2.3.3 and now wireless doesn't work. Which files am I supposed to flash for the baseband? I assumed it was all that were omitted when I unchecked "baseband" in flashtool.

I don't have a CDMA device, so I'm not entirely sure. There are a few roms available for the r800x, though. I would flash the AOKP Rom and the specified kernel. There is a CDMA fix for it in the download links. I am using the linaro build and it is overclocked to 1.6, it is superfast. The only downside is that I cant get the Crash apk to work with the rom.
Can I just ask anyone here if it is possible to run the Arma Tactics on Xperia Play with an ICS custom rom? because i checked in the market and it said it is compatible with my device... Thanks.
Yes, but ...

The question that comes is WILL it actually run? As long as your Xperia Play has a proper rom without a messed up device ID you should be able to snag it no problem. From my experience, the ICS Betas (4.0) and Sonygenmod (4.1) are the only roms that don't do retarded things to the phone, thus allowing proper play store use.
