Touchpad working on what ROMs? - Xperia Play General

I only recently learned I could unlock the bootloader and install alternate ROMs on my Xperia Play (Verizon). Anyhow, I tried CM9.1 and though I liked it, the fact that the touchpad/controller doesn't work sort of defeats the purpose of this phone (gaming). Are there any ROM's for the Xperia Play that has working touchpad/controller? Or is the stock ROM the only way to make it work?
Thanks,
Crypto

Most, if not all Gingerbread ROMs (Xperia NXT, Gin2JB etc.)have working touchpads. I think there's a way to get them working on ICS Roms though I personally am not sure how.

If you want a sony stock rom, xperia neo l rom works great on xplay just adding some files and the touchpad work. Here how to activate the touchpad http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2048803

incredible wii controller?

will we ever be able to use wii controller on htc incredible? if rooted with another rom? htc incredible + wii controller+ video out= all the games i ever wanted .
I really wish incredible had a full bluetooth stack.
I read that cm6 does for incredible. Someone even associated their keyboard and mouse to their incredible with cm6.
So try cm6 and reply with results.
Wiimote works great with non sense roms. I have done it with 2 or 3 different roms myself... If I can get behind a computer sometime today I will post some links to ruins that work.

It will not work on htc sense roms. It "may" not even work on modified sense roms.
The consensus is that it will work on custom vanilla roms -- the heavily supported roms like skyraider or cm6.
I heard someone had ruby with wi controller working. I have slcd screen jade bc not been able to load cm6 and wanted to see if anyone has tried or could try this for me ? Thank you again to all that help

When i finally think i'm happy with a custom rom, i find a new one that i wanna test. Thanks a bunch!
I only get 868 points in Quadrant with the Arc-X8 i installed yesterday. All in all the phone runs smooth and more ore less fast but Angry Birds e.g. in some situations is very slow.
Does anyone know when a new version of minicm will be released?

Now it's here, what do you think? ICS

I am actually quite happy with it, it's fairly fast nice and smooth with no major issues.
Just need status bar toggles, power button menu, custom kernel and I think I will be happy
What's everyone else's thoughts ?

can give link it work pls...
sorry that i try before 2.3 nearly kill my phone is pass so i dont want make mistake pls help ok
Well, I'm still not sure what the whole big deal is about this update for us.
It isn't more beautiful then a custom ROM. Even Sony told us that this isn't as fast as GB.
And their are still a lot of apps that isn't working correctly on 4.0.
I have it for only one reason. That is because I can't stand if someone with the same device have a newer software then me
Edit: I thought we should have the original unlock. But I have still the Sony one.....
It is no way smooth.. Everything works.. But isn't hardware acceleration supposed to increase the smoothness? I don't blame Sony. I blame Google for not fixing hardware acceleration right!
Sent from my LT15i using XDA
Try enabling gpu acceleration in developer settings?
Has anyone tried using apex launcher? It's probably way better than the stock launcher from what I've seen; like ICS but even better
Running official ics(rooted).its excellent. Very quick lag free compared to beta. I have frozen unneeded system apps and deleted bloatware. Very snappy
Sent from my LT18i using XDA
I love it.
I've been running the ICS beta since it was released and the performance of the final release blows it away on my Arc S. Getting it installed via Flashtool was a right PITA though - I thought my device was properly screwed at one point!
The launcher doesn't redraw like the beta did - I think Sony have made some memory tweaks in this area which is very welcome. I also like that they're shipping the official ICS Gallery app (and have renamed the old one 'Xperia Gallery') - the ICS Gallery app is so much faster than the Xperia one.
The ICS browser is in a different league to the GB one. I also love the Task Switcher, swipe notifications, music player controls, data usage monitor, new ICS calendar widget, GMail widget, etc. etc.
But Sony won't be able to please everyone. Some people were expecting the 2012 NXT UI even though Sony never promised it. These people will be disappointed. Personally I can't see what all the fuss is about - I'm sure someone will get the Xperia S music player working on ICS if that's what people want!
sooo smooth
so fast
i use baseband 70 with cm9
so fast sooo smooth >> perfect battery use
good new baseband
please can someone find a way too root this firmware without unlocking the bootloader??

its complete rubbish to be honest. It hasnt improved at all since beta, the look and feel of it is like 2.3. They could have atleast been bothered to integrate some of xperia s apps.

Why would they integrate S apps into the Arc S ? What would be the point in giving this years flagship phones apps to last year's ? Then it removes some of the attraction of upgrading , Sony is a business out to make money not provide users with all the solutions they want

Pure Stock Project

Hello guys!
After trying and trying to get cdma stock rom working on gsm I realized that it was impossible LOL.
So I decided to start a new project instead: I called it the "Pure Stock Project".
It is a rom based on. 79 firmware, modded by me to look like cdma.
Let me know what you guys think, and if I should release it, screenshots in attachment!

I think it looks like 100% stock except for the Sony Ericsson stuff added in of course

Thank you man :good:
The only thing is that some semc apps use a button reference in the SemcGenericUxpRes, with a white text color, so in apps like dialer text is sometimes hard to see in some buttons
I'm trying to find a solution, since it's impossible to decompile and correctly recompile that framework.

have you tested any games on it?
why free ram is that much low
are you using a 720p kernel?

gaming on GB is always good, ram depends on your kernel, 720p kernel on GB is recommended (or doomkernel)
i have usually 240mb ram in stock GB - never faced any problems in the heaviest games. ram and benchmark-numbers (especially antutu) is just numbers-porn.

OMG thank you man I'll try that
I will release it when I finish some other things like modding the lockscreen, the button text font color, and a bug i've found into grid_selector item.
I'll try to mod the dialer as well
And yeah, 720p kernel there

It's not only the look:
most of the code is taken straight from the 2.3.3 sources that google released, that's why we cannot port it

fixed grid_selector

Still To-do:
try to mod lockscreen to be like cm7
mod dialer to look like AOSP

Well, I think that the easiest way for now is to mod the drawables themeselves (sure I'll have to resize them).
Btw, next time you logcat, search for Errors (logs that start with "E:" ).

This way it's purely STOCK GB and it allows many many other bases/ports to other Roms,

Actually, I tought of implementing ADJ tweaks and adrenobooster v0.7 by default, since it's still a stock rom, not an AOSP rom like cm7
In other words, I've changed most of the png's in the framework-res.apk (hard work lol), systemui.apk, most of the app to match cdma's icons, and other changes that I don't remember, so I don't think it should be easily used as a base rom
