Xperia Play Games Launcher Trouble

Hi there , New to this site and i must say this is just one big book of knowledge about phones haha!
Anyways.. I installed last night the XDark ICS (Android 4.0.3) and realized that when i slide i my gamepad up that the launcher never came up so i went to the play store and found the installer so i downloaded it and every time it gets half way to being installed a error box pops up and says.. "Incompatible with other applications using the same shared user id" SO I THOUGHT OKAY AND THAT MEANS WHAT EXACTLY!?! so i searched around this forum and found people giving download link for apk files so i downloaded it put the apk on my sd card and tried installing that but this just gives me another error and says application not installed.
I do realise that this rom may not support the game launcher but there is no mention of it is the post and thought that someone out there could shed a little light on this matter.
I am not that botherd if i cannot get this running but i find it useful when i was running the normal stock software.
The link to this rom is here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1729250
If anyone could help it would be most apprrciated! :good:
Many Thnaks

I think the game launcher doesn't work on ics.
Sorry for my bad English. It's not my native language.
Ohh okay I never knew. A bit dissapointing but thanks. And no your English is perfect and very understandable
There is actually the Game Launcher from the leaked ICS builds that looks nice. I have it on my 2.3.3 Xplay and it works great. just look up ICS Xperia Game Launcher and you will find it.
Thankyou I will search this and let you know the results.

[HELP REQUEST] Launcher & Music Player Widget

Hi, thanks for reading...
I have two problems that I think are related to the stock launcher:
One of the desks of the launcher shows a black shadow instead of a green shadow whenever I try to put a widget or icon in that place. I can't put anything there and it's a full row.
The Music Player Widget cannot be added because the launcher says "Widget already added" over and over.
I already have tried clering the data from the launcher; even tried factory reset but didn't work.
Note: I'm using a brand new Xperia Play with 2.3.3 and .145 stock ROM, not rooted. Everything is like new, but I have these issues.
Any help would be aprecciated. Thanks in advance...
Thats an odd problem never heard of it before... Why don't you try this... Get the Xperia s launcher from themes and apps section and install that...it will ask u to replace system app just say ok...it might work give it a try
Edit: here is the link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1515644
Just unzip and take out the xperia s launcher you don't have install everything

[Q] i only need Playstrore..Nothing more

guyz..plz help me with this..
i am currently on cm beta 3 and i did'nt flash the gapps so as to free more space on my internal storage (as i don't use all gapps daily).
i believe i only need PLAYSTORE..
anyone help me have a playstore (only this gapp i need) on my phone without flashing all of ics-gapps???
-salute!
Hi reinjoy....I'm no dev so I can't answer whether it's possible to separate the (g) apps....but I'm fairly certain you need more than just play store...you have to have a Google email account set up before you can even access play store.....also it is the developers intent to keep our phones as free of bloatware as possible, so it's my guess that whatever is included in GAPPS is there because it needs to be there.....maybe a Dev can confirm this?.....idk, just my guess....

@ keith:
i appreciate your attention on my concern..
its just that i already tried your link provided but to no avail..i already followed every suggestions in it still i did'nt find my answer..
i hope a dev or some other people could help me on this matter..
i don't hate gapps, but i just don't have time on those other things..only i care for Playstore and nothing more..
cm beta3 + playstore is more than what i need..no other gapps included, only playstore..
should there be anyone who could lend a hand on this, kindly share it?

i downloaded the playstore v3.8.15 and indeed its an apk..
first i installed it as a normal apk---failed (opens for a second but eventually closes itself).
secondly, i put it on my system/app, changed permissions, rebooted--- same, failed..(opens for a moment, then closes)
keith, if someday and somehow you managed to install playstore alone without the presence of other gapps, please do share..
tnx..
waiting patiently for help..

Can I make a suggestion......download the full GAPPS package, then use either Titanium backup or Gemini app manager to (initially) freeze the bits you don't want, then delete them after you've seen whether they cause instability (with play store) or not by being frozen....

tnx for your help keith..

Yes mate...that's exactly how I'd do it......but bear in mind that some if the Google stuff MAY be system and MAY affect more than just Play Store....be careful.....if you aren't sure what it does, leave it active...

Your answer is at this post.
there is a rom at the development section (the second Paranoid one) the guy who cooked the rom first gave a special gapps which only had Play store.
as you can see here i ask him about the gapps.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=32591368&postcount=5
and he answers as just you asked.
maybe you can ask him for the gapps he used.

Is this a solution?

[Q] App question

Hi.
First of all I want to thank everyone for their effort.
I just installed Android Kitkat 4.4 on my Samsung Wave 2 phone from this thread here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2800014 , and I was wondering if it is possible to get a couple of apps installed or even Google Play itself since it's missing from the OS or I don't know how to enable it?
Thanks in advance and sorry if I posted in the wrong section.

Just install google apps, it makes phone laggy but add playstore.
All infos are in OP.
Other method is to install apk manually with adb or a file explorer.

I been having an issue with Netflix running in your rom. The app keeps spinning and times out with an error message (-9) which means it can't connect to its servers. Is there any way to have this app flash upon install might correct it.
If I flash from Kit Kat to Lollipop in ODIN the Netflix App works just fine. OBTW Thanks for your continue effort to make this Rom work.

If you want to try this. This is a older version of netflix but it gets past the spinning screen for me. I dont have a login to check further but this may be a temporary fix. Just uninstall your current version and reinstall this. make sure it doesnt auto update if it works.

Netflix App Not Working
I am using version 2.7 of MoROM and have been quite pleased with it. Only problem is that I cannot get netflix app to stream now. The app opens into my account without problems on the version provided by the flashable on by MoROM but will not stream any selections. Any ideas for a fix would be appreciated.
Posting here as I don't have quite enough posts for the Dev forum.
Dirty flashed 2.8 > Button Restore > Dark theme and lost the Phone and Contact apps on Boot.
Reflashed 2.8 and Button Restore as the dark notification theme still had a few issues (quick reply buttons weren't themed and various artifacts from the light version still hanging out) and I wanted to try to get the phone part of my phone back to no avail. There is a post in the Dev forum about a guy who cleaned flashed 2.8 and has the same issue.
To give more light, I was able to install a 3rd party dialer from the play store which seems to work fine. Making a call from there ends up bringing me into the TouchWiz dialer/in-call screen which shows that the core of the phone app is still there, this might just be a launcher issue.

Long Press Home button?
Anyone having the long-press for the home button not taking them to the search/google now/google app? It doesn't do anything. Maybe I've got a setting messed up somewhere. Can't figure it out though.

Thanks for all the hard work!
Yes same here tried reinstalling clearing the defaults data cache.

This works for me. You may have something installed with xposed changing that button. Either way you can install gravity box and go to the navigation key section and change the longpress home button to whatever you want. I have mine set to open up recents but I just put it back to default and it opened google now. This is on the most recent update 4.0

Just received my DE Note 4 and uh oh....
Well, I don't have sufficient posts yet to post to the forum so I'll post here. I just realized after having my developer edition note 4 for only a week that i made the same mistake as two others on the forum of flashing the retail note 4 verizon firmware. ACHK! Sometimes I'm so INCREDIBLY STUPID!!!! Going to call Sammy to see what they will say. So so so stupid of me....
Update
So a quick update. Samsung will not over the phone say that they can help in any way. I'm hoping others have had better luck reflashing a DE Note 4 to stock firmware.
