All the HTC devices get custom roms 2 or 3 days after they are rooted.
Optimus 2x got its first custom rom 24h later
Arc...huhuhu
Really guys if we didn't have the big help of external dev(who haven't the Arc) to let us root the Arc we would still be waiting for it.
I am beginning to be afraid the Arc will not see soon any custom roms, we simply don't have any dev here
I sold the N1 because I trusted the Arc to have roms after its rooted, but I am afraid that even the SGS2 will have one before us...and that really piss me off
Sorry if I look too impatient but after the custom roms experience on N1, I hate to stay with the same rom too long

I think you have to forget custom roms for the ARC. there are no devs which is interested in this device. This is actually very sad, i have said this before in another thread and some people think i am crazy.
I mean look at the member views in the dev thread, there are not many, it is always between 30-40 viewers. That's not a good sign.
I am strongly thinking about a SGSII,
SGS2 is very good but I feel more attracted to HTC DHD or Sensation...in case nothing changes for the Arc.
You never go wrong when an HTC is rooted over XDA

I am not thinking about HTC anymore because of the bootloaders
Rumors are saying that only the Incredible and Desire S will have this horrible thingy, as for Sensation nothing is sure yet.
Some people will have it on May 12 so we just have to wait and see
By the end of May we would know if the Sensation is the new XDA messiah or not
Only a couple of weeks but it's killing me!
Who knows perhaps Paul Obrien will release a rom for the Arc next week, I understood he's planning to buy it too, but in another hand SGS2 will take all of his free time
What i am afraid of is when the SGS2 come(alot of people have it now) no one will look in to the arc and that what scares me off.
will wait for a custom rom but if the sgs2 arrived and got custom roms then arc wont get one. and i might think of getting the SGS2 later on.

Maybe, are you planning on producing one this year?
I too look forward to custon roms, but I wouldnt say im pissed becaise other devices may get one 1st, if its so annoying learn how to compile one for yourself and post it.
Oh I wish I had the knowledge to do it!
I would port Sense...
Some stats: 257 downloads for my modded statusbar.
It's even higher than what I got with the same mod in N1 section for the same amount of time!
So I deduce that we have lot of Arc users here but we just need devs with linux knowledge...and that's the main problem!
Even X10 devs are gonna buy the SGS2 or Sensation
I feel like I bought an iphone, many users but no dev!
I have exams over the next three weeks, but I might have a go at porting cyanogenmod afterwards - if recovery is sorted out. The only problem I have is that this is my main phone and obviously I don't want to brick it!

Agree with this i think if we have recovery it will much easier to play with roms. right now i want to make a nand so i can always go back if something fails.
That's what frighten me!
Bin4ry hasn't an Arc and he made us a great service with rooting, now he's working on an Incredible S/Sensation root.
Paul Obrien has a Play and was willing to buy an Arc but he doesn't show any sign of caring for us
Devs feel the Arc like an amateur phone so they don't buy it.
When the SGS2 will be released worldwide and the Sensation right after, you can be sure nobody will ever think about the Arc
Well if all goes wrong there is help making roms so if recovery is done ill buy a laptop and try do it my self probably cyanogen we shall see tho. But I cant believe no one is a Dev on arc really

Right, but first of all X10 took sometimes to have a developers till June 2010 even though people were there but wasn't serious till then.
Second, X10 had issues like OS was outdated a many more but arc barely has any issues (at least to me). Only thing people like to see to me is stock android or CM7? well, more people will show up here. Soon...
Eventhough I do think you have a point I do believe we will get some. And when the first one managed to get a fully working ROM and share his knowledge, I am convinced more will follow. For now my default rom is functioning fine. I really don't have the brains to make a ROM, so I am patiently sitting in the waiting room....

I think the delay in custom ROM 's was down to
Everyone waiting for Sony Ericsson to officially unlock the Bootloader and also this is only the second handset that has been launched with Android 2.3 Gingerbread.
Fingers crossed, look how long the X1 was out before custom ROMs came popular.

I hate being that guy who always hates on these threads, and I know that your hearts are in the right place, but this doesn't have a chance in hell. HTC is a company out to make money. Wasting dev time on an update to a phone that is neither a flagship device nor a big seller doesn't make them money. Updates ARE coming for phones with almost identical hardware. We will get official drivers, don't worry.
Rather than seeing one of these threads pop up every few weeks, why not work as a community to set up something like "Desire Z Donation Day", where everyone in the forum vows to give to Cyanogenmod or other devs who work on updating our devices for zero pay.
Again don't take this as putting you guys down, but let's work together on something that can have an actual impact.

well said, and i agree. i believe everyone here should donate to the developers who work so hard for us to enjoy our phones. but also, at the same time, we have to do whatever we can to get the drivers(fast), so that the developers can finish the projects that they've been working on for so long.
Regardless of whether it's worth it or not, it only takes 30 seconds to fill out that petition. So everyone here should just give it a shot for what it's worth, even if it's worth nothing.

And what are you suggesting we donate? Cyanogen already made it clear that donating won't speed up the process of any specific device, A similar situation happened when the CM team was making Windows Mobile roms. A Xperia X1 was paid for and sent out to Cyanogen and he never worked around to get a rom made for it. . .
I don't want to sound like I'm bashing at anyone or anything...but,
First off, the sole reason for donating DEV's is to show them your support. Tarroyo's reply kind of gave me a chuckle, I wasn't expecting such a reply at an XDA-like board.
That said, one of the reasons HTC will not release an update to the DZ is the fact it'll be plenty more work because they'd have to write several code for functions unique to our device, like the Hardware Keyboard. Devices such as the DHD (which are FLAGSHIP by the way) don't have this kind of work and building ICS for it would be less effort, hence less work, hence more time to focus on something else for the HTC DEV's. Even so, doing all of this isn't really hard for them, nor all that time consuming either...which takes us to the second reason why they won't build it, and that is because, for them, it's just not worth it. This has been said DOZENS of times, yet people still go like "petition this, petition that, change!". No change, no Official ICS. CM9, Andromadus, Quattro (and latter ROM's) will be more than enough. Besides, it has ALSO been mentioned that the DHD and DS have almost identical hardware, hence we will have no issue in getting OFFICIAL drivers.
Bottom line/ TL;DR is, we are not going to get official ICS for the DZ; ICS ROM's here will do; and this is almost a dead device as far as HTC is concerned.

In the VERY short term, perhaps.
In the long term, it will cripple them.
What we need is to filter the kernel out of the kernel source and learn how to patch newer kernels to work with this hardware. The sooner we get completely cut off by HTC (hopefully already has happened), the sooner this work will be underway, and the sooner we get a REAL GOOD AOSP system running, completely without crap.

This isn't going to work as much as I'd like it to. To be honest some of the other posters are right. Other devices with identical hardware will get the update. With out current ics roms that's all that's missing. That "smoothness" because we don't have the right drivers. Be patient peeps. It took 2-3 months for the nexus s to get ics to where it is. Its gonna take a wee bit longer for us. (Not for me. Getting a gs2 next week )

Hi Everyone,
I saw a lot of posts in Xperia Play section like " I will buy a new phone. I will switch my Play. " I know, the reason is ICS update. But, If we get ICS, we will never use it smoothly, right ? Ice Cream Sandiwch was came a lot of Xperia. But, which Xperia can use ICS smoothly ? Let's assume that, we got ICS. ICS uses a lot of RAM. (Let anyone accept this, please!) And ICS isn't a gaming friend. But Xperia Play is gaming phone. I mean ICS is not for us anyway. What do you guys think ?
hmm, older phones with similar or worse specs can handle ics well, like nexus s,htc one v (same chipset, 512mb ram)
The problem with ICS is the gaming aspect, not hardware limitations.
Sent from my R800x using XDA
People are too spoiled these days. Once they learn that a newer version of ANYTHING is coming to their device, they absolutely HAVE to have it. And if a company decides to back out of its promise (like Sony did with ICS for Xperia Play), people will cry on internet forums and some even decide to get rid of their phone in favour of another one that can run ICS. Though they somehow ignore the fact that doing this, they lose the BIGGEST advantage Xperia Play has over any other phone - physical controls.

It's not about ICS itself, it's about Sony not keeping promises: ICS, PSP games etc.
Speaking for myself, The Xperia play is a good phone, not great, i bought seeking for game specs on a phone, such as you would by a pc for games, you would think it would have alot more then any phone, but in fact it had less specs the only thing it has is physical controls, but in may games you can switch your physical keyboard to make it a gamepad or add a usb gamepad to work with it, so it really doesnt give you such a difference, im always laggy on games and even on the homescreen some times, ICS on the rom from keiran im running much better then on the 2.3.4 official firmware, thats why im going to leave behind the play.
Besides the fact of sony backing up on releasing the ICS which i've been expected since they announce it

sony should just release the sources for their touchpads, this would be great, and we can finally switch to roms like cm9 and aokp with touchpad support!
Well, for me I'll switch back to good old HTC with the One X this time, only reason I bought an SE Xperia is cause of the gamepad and so far it's been a real good experience. I don't care about the ICS it's ugly. One X with MIUI rom I'm looking forward to.
As someone who had a Galaxy Nexus and used a USB OTG cable for my USB gamepad, the Play is a savior. I thought I'd be all set, but it prevents you from charging the device at the same time. Plus you have to prop it up somewhere. It was really annoying. Nothing beats physical controls, and this thing runs emulators like a champ. No complaints here.
The fact that I know for as long as I have this phone I need to stick to the same version is depressing. Since I cant unlock my bl I can't install the epic Roms. Thats the only reason I no longer want to keep my phone, id rather a regularly updated one. But I'm not selling this phone yet. I'll give it awhile.

Why can't you unlock? At least you don't have to pay like R800x users.
I also still like the play and as I got no extra money, I won't be able to switch to another phone in a while.
That it's not getting update to ICS is for me on the one side noot so much important...
But on the other site... I simply hate getting lied right to my face, and thats what happend here. I bought the phone with SONY's promise it will get ICS in April and now it doesn't.
Thats actually ground enough to sue them because they tricked you into buying it with false promises.
Highlighting that aspect from another side - They are not keeping their well documented promise to update to android 4, that means my phone is missing all the functions an android 4 update would have brought -> Underperforming phone / phone with missing functionalities, as they promised to update and now do not. Should be enough to get some money back as you do not get the full functionalities you actually bought by paying full price...
tbh. I'm just pissed of at the company right now... Sony (we) make. (You) believe

I'm never buying Apple again because they f**ked up the iOS4 update for the 3g

My point being why not just stop buying phones, since no company is perfect.
I'm not saying that if a phone doesn't work you should stop buying phones from that company. I'm saying that when the company lies to you twice after all the phones you've ever owned were by that company, it's time you moved on.

Feels like banging my head off a brick wall here...
You know, there's a reason we aren't getting ICS. It's not just Sony saying we can't have it. The ICS beta was released so Sony could see what the bugs were. The main bug turned out to be the Touch-pads, or lack thereof, when running ICS.
With the Play being a gaming device, if the Touch-pads don't work then that is a good enough reason not to release it. Sure there's flashable fixes for the Touch-pads but that doesn't work on most of the games. Mainly Gameloft and EA games.
Any anger should be directed towards Gameloft and EA for not wanting to update their code to incorporate the Plays Touch-pads.
It would hurt Sony more to release an update that hampers the main selling point of the device. I understand that it has nothing to do with the main hardware of the Play (RAM etc) and it's all because of the Touch-pads
Let me ask you this: If Microsoft said that they were releasing an OS that looked beautiful but removed support for Mouse and Touchpads (for laptops/Netbooks) would you still want to upgrade?

Hey guys, i've been here quite a while. And nowadays people keeps coming in with question that've been probably answered and a lot of dev seem to hav lost their interest in developing this phone.:banghead:
I really wonder who's gonna help us with our problem. And i sriously don't think the play moderator could handle everything here by themself. I obviously don't hav enough on me to be of any use to help this community.
So what're we gonna do when all the devs are gone?? Who's gonna provide us the things that we may need?? Where would we go to when we're lost in developing??
I'm really bump up with everythings that been going on with this device. All the news, the stories, the gossip, article, blog etc. Everything that this device had offered when it 1st appear had already been top off by some dual/quad core tegra 3 1gb/2gb ram device.
So the real Q is how long does this section's gonna last...

Don't worry. As I see, the developers are still crazy about Xperia Play and they prefere it to GS3 because of GAMEPAD.
This section is not gonna die.:good:
Yeah i also noticed that. The play does not have the community that it deserves. But my play just died and since i am on exchange year in taiwan right now i cant send it to sony. But phones are cheap here so i just bought a xperia sola. Problem solved. I miss gamepad though.

Dude, for example take a look at the X8 section.
The phone came out in Summer 2012 and has 180MB RAM (~90 of which is usable) and it has a HUGE community.
Over 400 ROM's, and has fully working Jelly Bean , how may I ask?, new developers come along.
But may be a slightly different story here

I think it is time up for this device, Cyanogenmod team said they stopped supporting Snapdragon S1 devices, I think that's what the Play uses. At least we had CM7 and CM9 stable which both run great, we will get a CM10 port too from FXP. Overall the device is limited by the performance. Sony isn't going to upgrade this model, just have to hope another company will create something similar for us, but I'm not interested in tablets with controller.
Well, my xperia play recently broke and im getting a new one. I had a choice of S3, but i chose the play. Because its unique and wont die.

I'm hoping more will join this thread to asses their needs of the Play section. Just so we'll know what're n how many are still interested in this section. Hopefully to get more than 50 users/members to tell us n re-asure us that this section is gonna last. Coz this "may be" my last device. As my twins needs more financial attention than my interest in gadgets. I lov this phone. Just want to keep it up to date as possible. Hoping to get more n any kinds of supports from users/members to keep this section alive.

I'm not sure if this section is gonna last much more time. I think the Xperia Play is indeed an awesome phone but it just wasn't made for the android hardcore user. I used to theme my phone so much and to change Rom every two days. Now with this phone I don't do either if those things. Anyway I can't imagine myself with another device
