Xperia Mobile Gaming Arena

Apparently Sony, Gameloft, and MLG want to bring competitive(?) gaming to mobile devices. This "Xperia Mobile Gaming Arena" only supports Modern Combat 3 for the moment. From what I can see there are cash prices available.
The announcement video was put up today. The link to the site is here.
Personally, this isn't my type of game, but I like to see Sony pushing the Xperia brand so aggresively. Hopefully we'll see more PS1 games and other cool stuff (PS Store) officially come to the US soon.

Does Modern Combat 3 work with a Bluetooth controller like a Dual Shock 3?
Always wanted to pick it up, just touchpads don't work on all games when using Cyanogenmod 7

I got it working with the PS3 controller using the Sixxaxis controller app. Took some configuring but seems to work pretty good. Haven't really had a chance to play it much. Was playing it on the iPad since it runs much better on there.

Sgs3 vs SG Note

Hello there
I started this thread to make a comparaison between the two device to help people on chosing the model which more fits his needs
I own both and can't actually decide which one use as main....
Luckily i have 2 telephone numbers so I use both

so far i can elaborate a bit:
Both have ics (the sgnote has a custom icsRocketRom)
they are both very fast, but you can feel the sgs3 has more processing power and it is overall faster
when you type messages on the sgnote its easyer and you end up with faster typing
browsing speed seems about the same
ics version on sgs 3 is more modern and seems better
the battery on sgs 3 seems very good but i feel that sgnote has longer usage
the screen of the sgnote is huge and at the end it makes the main difference between the 2 devices
at the end probably any comparaison is not fair since they are not the same category of device
if they had same hardware and software it would only be a matter to decide : "Do i have enough room to carry a gnote"?

I am in the same boat. Got my .sg3 yesterday but after flashing liquid on my Note I miss my Note some. I think the Note 2 will be the one. Although I am going to use my GS3 as my main phone now

Iffn it was me I'd use an old phone repurposed into a android media player. Our get a SanDisk Sansa Clip. I have a Clip, and I use my old Droid Charge as a media player.
I put my N7 in a fanny pack when I want it at the end of a hike/walk. But I have not tried running very far with it. Mine is more of a hiking pack, but there are packs aimed at runners, especially ultra-marathoners.
Current: Note 2 - Nexus 7 - Charge
Retired: Player 5.0 - Fascinate

Read twice, flash once

I don't recommend running with your nexus 7 because the larger screen is more likely to break if dropped. With that said I would think some kind of body strap would work best since it would probably be awkward and less secure to run with it on an arm. A silicon case with 2 hole and bungees going through it would probably be the best way to secure it to your body.
If you do decide to go running with your nexus 7 let us know how it went and how you secured it.

I'm 99.99% sure your N7's screen gonna break if it falls face down. So it's better not to run with it if you don't have a plan to get a new one...
Btw the best way to run with it might be to find a back pack like this

Nexus 4 or xperia Z

I have a chance to trade a nexus 4 for a xperia z. I would like anyone that has had both phones to let me know what would be the better choice. I do like flashing roms at times but don't do it a lot but do take a lot of pics and videos. Any advice would be helpful. Thanks to all who reply.

That's like asking Key lime pie early or next year.

The only feature Xperia Z has is the Waterproof and Dustproof feature..
I had a handson Xperia Z its not that good. I am not being biased but to be true N4 is way better than Xperia Z.
Nexus 4 beats Xperia Z in all other cases..
Go for N4.:good:

Cheeky Cheeky

I don't have a n4 but I recently bought my wife the xperia z. It's cool, looks nice, and water resistant. It has a pretty nice screen and a nice size. The glass on the sides kinda have that purple blue playstion color. I know they have a purple one, I guess it might be the same color as the sides. Pictures seem a little over saturated though. Definitely like the pure android though. If I had a choice I would get the n4 which I will get in a month

What are talking about you have no ethics.

It is likely that there are only a few users to have both phones,
and since the trolling has already started,
I ask that if you a response for Blueknight730 to use a PM
Also "which is best" comparison threads are not very welcome on XDA.

Deciding on Find 5

I am looking to buy find 5 but on the oppo forums I see a ton of negative feedback ranging from connection issues to whatever. What has been your impressions as I really think this phone could be my daily driver over nexsus 4.

I wouldn't buy the Oppo Find 5 now. Custom ROMs are limited but tho, we've some really good developers like Maxwen, Anders and Aaronpoweruser, and I believe Entropy also will continue developing for the Oppo find 5 if he comes back.
Haven't really any issues with the mic or connection drops like some of the users have had. Running AOKP now!
But tho, the build quality and screen of this phone is amazing! I prefer the Find 5's screen over my HTC One's, because the Oppo Find 5 doesn't have that "blue hint" over it.
But it's up to you, you won't be disapointed if you choose the Find 5!
Cheers,
Sebastian

I really enjoy owning this phone. I take advantage of the custom roms and I feel like I own a superior nexus with the Find 5. Lovely screen. Great build. Easy rooting/modding methods. Etc

The phone is gorgeous.. after even almost a year old, it's still one of the nicest phone you can get. The stock firmware or software hasn't been the best experience. But I'll tell ya.. Being able to root and ROM without worry of voiding the warranty is super nice. I've been running CM for almost a month now, no issues here.. Camera works great, sound and audio is good.. Battery-meh, but I do fine. The design of this phone, and the display... mouth watering
Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk 4

The look and feel, the hardware specs - they are amazing. The camera takes very good picuters (on stock rom).
But that's it already. The ridiculous batterylife and the lack of a stable working software makes me regretting this purchase. Oppo has good intentions, but they are not able to keep their promises. I wouldn't recommmend the find 5 at the moment

When the International ColorOS comes out, the Find 5 will be a perfect phone! Since a few months the Find 5 has a Snapdragon 600. I've bought mine from oppostyle.com and mine has a Snapdragon 600.

I currently have a Xperia U and I'm currently thinking about purchasing a Oppo Find 5.
I had no idea about the state of the custom roms. And is the stock rom usable?
