Petition to sony for latest ICS sources - Xperia Play General

I have made a petition to sony for them to release the latest rom/sources for ICS (be it beta or whatever) for the Xperia Play So that the dev's here can try to work on a stable release for the members here who aren't that worried about bad gaming performance
Sorry if this is the wrong area to post in the more replys we get at the thread below the more chance we probly have of getting what we need (i hope)
talk(dot)sonymobile(dot)com/thread/38157?tstart=0
And if possible could someone with a higher post count than me repost this in the other sections so this spreads around a bit more
Thank you in advance

First, one of the reason they killed it was because the dev community said it wasn't good.
Second online petitions are worth the weight of the paper they're written on.

I made a like and a reply =)

Yes, I feel a lot could be done by releasing newer sources for the ICS. Please everyone- Stand up and voice your opinion here or on Sony's website so we continue development.

we did need a new kernel with multitouch to play games

as we all know ,fake multi touch can zoom in and zoom out pefect now.however i would like to play games with multitouch.can dev make a new kernel with a real multi touch as big x10? i hope it come soonly.
1. read around. they ARE making a custom kernel. there's no need to ask if they can and u hope it will be done soon. everyone hopes that too.
2. doixanh already explained that our screens only have ONE sensor, so even with custom kernel multitouch might not be possible.
3. almost everyone who games on the x8 want multitouch.
so... be patient. the devs have real life obligations which are more important than cracking our phones. they're not doing this as a job
P.S: there's a sticky for this topic. i believe this thread will get locked very soon

The Xperia X8 volunteering testers thread

Hi all,
in this thread you can make it known that you're willing to test developers work in progress on your Xperia X8. Developers who need testers will then contact you by private messaging.
Please understand that some – or perhaps most – of what you will get to test is not in beta but in alfa stage of development, or somewhere on the road from alfa to beta stage. This means that it may contain many bugs, and some of them serious, making your phone freeze, reboot or just generally act weird and strange. The aim of your testing is to squash as many bugs as possible, and thereby helping in the process of making the ROM or whatever it is you're testing ready to be publically released.
If you're phone's not rooted, please don't bother posting here.
All testing is done at your own risk. If your phone is bricked, Sony Ericsson Update Service most probably can take you back to the phones original state.
This thread belongs in the development section, I know, but for obvious reasons (= i'm a n00b) i'm not allowed to post there.
And yes, I hereby sign up as a volunteering tester... i'll try anything once ;-)
Cheers,
/Bertil
So who needs to get some tests done? What dev?
Did some dev asked you to make this thread?
Its just trying everything to see what works and what doesn't.
Doesn't seem hard.
Yea, ill be a tester
Sent from my E15i using XDA App
Well, for example trofiniou seems to need help testing his alfa 10 of ICS for X8:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1407351
And no, testing is not hard, but it helps the devs, there is no way they can find all bugs on their own.
I didn't know only devs are supposed to take initiative here, pardon me if i stepped on anyones toes.

**** [Petition + Poll] ICS Sources for Xperia PLAY **** NO COMPLAINING

I would like to start a petition for Sony to release the latest sources for Xperia PLAY to the community. I am disappointed by the news but I completely understand and agree. The gamepad is the major reason for this phone and by developers not updating their games to ICS caused all sorts of stability issues.
So I figure for now lets see if we can get the sources and let the XDA devs have a grand old time picking it apart and seeing what awesome goodness they can do with it!
ICS is nice eye candy and I for one found better results on GB then ICS, probably becuase I am on CDMA. But still I would love for everyone to have the option of using some custom ROMs sourced from the latest sources. Everyone who is game (pun) please sign below if you agree. And PLEASE DO NOT COMPLAIN ON THIS THREAD. This thread is about looking positive, moving on and hoping for the best. This phone is still awesome an I still absolutely love my device.
Also there is a poll, choose whether or not you want the sources.
So again.................
*****PLEASE DO NOT COMPLAIN ON THIS THREAD*****
***Just noticed right before i finished this post there was another post for a petition, did not mean to make a double post, but this post also has a POLL. Everyone please use the POLL in addition to signing below. Thank you****
As SuperNoodles2011 has made a poll on the Official Sony Forum. (Thank you SuperNoodles2011)
talk.sonymobile.com/thread/38157?tstart=0
ANY POST THAT IS NEGATIVE TOWARDS SONY WILL BE DELETED AND YOU WILL BE NOTIFIED BY A MOD, THIS THREAD IS FOR ASKING SONY TO RELEASE THE SOURCES IN A POSITIVE WAY, NEGATIVE COMMENTS WILL NOT MOTIVATE SONY TO WANT TO HELP
Sony, thank you for your efforts with ICS for our phone. I would like to respectfully request though that the latest ICS sources be released to the Android community to let those who choose to conitnue with, that they may do so.
And if possible, allow us to help you find a solution to improve overall user experience, and push for a later ICS release.
i made a thread about this already but its np but inside my post is a link to a request on the official sony forums so feel free to take the link from that and post it in this thread and also write on that post saying you want it

Thank you....
sony please release the sources for the community here
if sources would be released i am sure that developers could release a better Rom then sony themself since sony puts so much BS on their Stock rom that not nessacry
IMO If we won't get the official update, I think Sony must give us a chance between stay in the latest official Gingerbread rom or install an official custom ICS rom under our own risk.
I want them to release the sources too! I understand their decision but at least they should give us their latest sources
I understand Sony's decision and thank them for giving us a Beta to test ICS on our devices. But I would love to see what xda-developers could do with our phone having the latest source code.
SONY: If you want to give up then it's fine, Just give us the latest sources as I hope there was some progress made after the beta was released. We have some great Devs that can do a lot with whatever has been done so far. As you may know this is a major disappointment to the Xperia play owners so at least give us a shot. It's really not too much to ask.

SONY: If you want to give up then be my guest Just give us the latest sources unless you stopped development sometime back around your early release of the beta in which point keep them to yourselve as Ive already lost enough respect for your treatment of the paying customer. Hey, I didnt complain.lmao.

in theory they MUST have some newer ROM for possible bug fixes they have tryed so lets hope we get it
the only reason sony gave us the beta was to confirm what they already thought: ICS on the PLAY is too much effort.
Give us the source code (especially for the touchpads). Open source means open source
i found this rather interesting this post
http://talk.sonymobile.com/message/197288#197288
States that not only will ALL 2011 xperia phones get ICS but they "PROMISE" we will get it
so as they cant promise us a working ICS lets hope we get the latest Rom source

my point exactly ... i dont care about the gaming aspect of my phone anymore i hardly use it for that.. and i cant afford a new phone with the same kind or performance or even better :/ i hope they honor there customers i really do
Meanwhile if everyone could use the link in the first post to make your views on it and help show sony we need the ROMS brought here id appreciate it ALOT
I also would like Sony to release the sources for their ICS implementation, assuming they'll refuse to release an official ROM. But I'm not holding my breath. Sony isn't exactly the most open company out there (when Ericsson's share was bought out, I immediately knew I made a mistake having bought this phone).
Well, live and learn [and don't buy Sony].

in theory they MUST have some newer ROM somewhere otherwise that just proves that they didnt even TRY to update the phone or fix any of the bugs... so they cant say no we dont have it otherwise they prove they are liars so we better see something soon...

As I have stated in my first post, PLEASE NO NEGATIVE COMMENTS, this is NOT for complaining. This thread is for being positive and respectfully asking Sony for the sources of our phone. Please either re-word your post or I will have a mod remove it.

Sony Beginning to Upgrade Many ICS Xperia Devices This Week

With so many Xperia devices getting ICS, isn't there a chance we might use them to get an "official" ICS ROM for our older Xperia X10?
http://www.xda-developers.com/android/sony-beginning-to-upgrade-many-ics-xperia-devices-this-week/
No hope for x10
Superman™
No chance!
but hey; Jerpelea, our hero!!, has made a cm9 ROM for us.
Greets Maik
@iridaki or colossus please close this Thread
not a chance ...
I took a look at some device's forum then I realized there is no more poor development runing than x10
look at hd2 forum it's as active as always
This is a question answered multiple times throughout the X10 forums.
Sony will not upgrade the X10 to ICS.
They have given it 2 major Android version updates (2.1 and 2.3) and it is an old model.
Granted, it is still decent and all, but life goes on.
Thread closed.

Hello everyone. I know this is not Xperia PLAY related and I am posting this here. But in the spirit of the XDA to see improvement from not only within but also the OEMs. I would like to extend a request that in this spirit that although many, if not all may or may not have a a Galaxy Tab 10.1 (which I do) if anyone would be kind enough to sign he petition to get Samsung to release Jelly Bean for the awesome tablet?
Here is the link. The goal is to get at least 1000 sigatures. I do not know if this petition will make a difference with Sammy but it doesnt hurt to try and it only takes a minute. Be advised after signing it does ask if you would like to donate to the website, you dont have to.
I am sure there will be users who will write a post that this is NOT Xperia PLAY related and you would be correct. But I do feel that the spirit of this community is to assist and to be a source of accomplishingments. So with that I would like to say thank you in advance. I am not demanding anyone signs this petition. Merely sincerely asking and hoping. Thank you.

I posted this in the XP forum as I know a few people there who have this tablet. I do not know if they follow the Galaxy Tab forum. My hope was to make this petition known in the XP forum in hopes it would be noticed and get the signatures to needs to hopefully get Samsung to hear its customers.
