Suggestions for my new play :) - Xperia Play General

Hi all,
I am perfectly happy with my nexus 4, but my friend is giving me his old xperia play which I am going to use as a gaming device.
I see there are several roms out there based on gb and ics and some even jb.
What is suggested to optimize xperia play for gaming only? gb, ics or jb?
I will be deleting any app that isn't neccessary to keep things nice and clean.
Was thinking about a swap partition on my sdhc card as well.
Haven't got the device yet but I am collecting firmwares, kernels and whatnot to have ready for when I receive it.
Let me know what you think?:good:

Great friend you have there =).
I am sure that someone more technical could fill you in on details on GB, ICS and JB stuff. I haven´t been following that at all.
Personally, I only use my XPlay only as an emulator gaming device. And I use ExtremeKernel combined with EliteGamer 2.0 000p (no camera).
I have around 300-310 MB´s of free RAM. And emulators for NES, SNES, GBA, Genesis and PSX runs perfectly fine. It´s amazing to relieve my old games that are stashed away in my wardrobe.
I haven´t even gotten to overclock the unit. I prefer my unit to live as long as possible.
The XPlay IS aged hardware. But the price and its very smooth design makes it easy just to pick it up and play.

My friend actually got it for 10 euros, which is about the price of 2 small cigarette packs ^^
EliteGamer is the rom right? Don't need camera lol.
Your rom+kernel setting seem to work for you, I might try those. Have to decide based on opinions:good:

I'm currently building a pure performance ROM which is my custom build of AtomicGB.
For gaming I'd stick with Gin2KK, Elite and/or the Rom I'm just making.
Using the 000p/cameraless extreme kernel doesn't do video playback too :/ but is the best solution for gaming.

When I was testing roms, I found AuroraPlay to be the best gaming rom. It didn't skip any frames on PPSSPP when I was playing Project diva. I'm using that along with a beta ExtremeKernel. Here's a gameplay video. I think it has my settings too at the end. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OznD5ZNtVvo

I'll keep an eye out for your rom release!
I don't plan on using camera and video playback anyways, it's going to be purely a gaming device
Do I have to keep in mind that there are other versions of the xplay?
Sometimes I see R800i or R800x model name

R800i is the 3G GSM version of the Play.
R800x is the CDMA version of the Play.
R800a is the 3G GSM version of the Play (not often seen).
R800at is the 4G AT&T version of the Play.

Oh my, where did your friend pick up a play for 10 euros? I'm looking to get a second one to store in case something bad happens to mine...

That's the amount of RAM my ROM had earlier in development.
Now it's a bit less due to JIT tweaks but has faster app execution.
That was with the 480p kernel, had 320 with 000p

Well it was kind of a demo model in a store he works at, and they were selling phones and tablets at a really low price. But there are only 5 or so of each model.
Had my eyes on this one x too but I wasn't lucky enough to win it.
I guess you can search Ebay or maybe a native secondhand market?

No it's the exact same phone, just has 4G.

I did, I found out some quite low prices but nothing even close to this. Do you know if there are any left, or was it a long time ago?
Anyway, my personal experience is that stock firmware, de-bloated and optimized with various little tweaks is the best.

He was asking for differences in the main hardware asking "Is this the Xperia Play 2?" sort of question, I don't think mentioning the radio comes into play on this part since he only wants to use the device for gaming.
And sorrt for the typo lol I just noticed it.

it was not a long time ago, but yeah there aren't any left. there were 5 of em or something, so they had to do like a lottery out of 30 people wanting the same device.

How much should I be paying for a new i800 these days?

Getting a G1

Hey guys, I bought a G1 on EBay for 78 bucks ( pretty cheap considering the device has regular wear and tear) and wanted to dominate the thing with awesome mods etc. Anyone know a nice stable and fast froyo build? If there is one with Sense I will take that as well and as a side note... is multi touch enabled on these roms? Multi touch like the Nexus S has?
Sent from my Xoom
If you want froyo, you should try out froyo by lazlo, if you want gingerbread, try cos-ds gingerbread
Sent from my HTC Dream using XDA App
Multitouch enabled on most custom roms, from 1.6 to current.
do also check on how to upgrade the spl and radio of the phone if it has not been upgraded, as this would give you extra 14mb of ram which is very precious for the g1. Links are at my sig
welcome to the g1 community and have fun flashing!
So what use is the radio for? Just some extra ram? Anyone got a link for a stable froyo or gingerbread build? Which ever is most stable I will take, if there is a version with Sense then I will take that. Also what's with this 32a and 32b stuff? Are there specific versions of roms? Cause that would kind of suck lol.
Sent from my Xoom
yes, with it you'll get around 110 of ram, which considered as a lot for g1, froyo, go for froyo by laszlo or froyofortrout or ezterry's official aosp ota.
GB, try cosds or ads. laszlo's and the GB links are at my signature. open up the web version of the forum if you cant see them from the xda/tapatalk app. happy flashing!

Uh here I have a video by Phonedog:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rm777yg4WvA&feature=youtube_gdata_player
Skip a little when he starts talking about Instant Messaging etc. I thought it looked pretty cool and a bit better than Trillian such. I tried it on my Nexus S, and it kept crashing. Is there a way to keep that app? Also I am planning on overclocking the device does it improve performance? I just want a ROM that isn't going to bog down the experience, I don't use live wallpapers and the most I want to play is Angry Birds and Fruit Ninja, can it run that if it's all stock?

the app might not be compatible with gingerbread, plus the original g1 received only up to 1.6 as the official update, but you can always try later on with your preferred custom rom. OC does improve, but personally, im not using it, the default is good enough for me, your needs might be diffrent.
angry bird is playable with this script, but it is not that smooth, but still playable . have not tried ninja, most of the 2d games work well so far. for good gaming experience, your nexus s would be much2 more better lol
hope it helps

Hmmm, would overclocling make the gaming experience any better? I mean I know that emulators work well because they were made on the G1, saw videos of people using it on a G1 as well. I am not going to have my Nexus S for a good week or two for repairs, so I need a device to substitute it.

the limitation here is the ram and also the gpu in g1, it uses adreno 130, which is very old, phones with slightly higher gpu, adreno 200 have much2 better performance eventhough they are only one model newer.
Yeah I knew it was the RAM, oh well it's not like I was going to game hardcore or anything.

Both angry birds and fruit ninja run very well using froyobylazo 5.2, fruit ninja runs better in my tests I've done with it. I OC to 595 - 633 tho for best results with those games,emualtion is fine @ 528 and below.

I might just suggest using gingerbread in particular 'ginger yoshi'. I recently also purchased a G1/Dream off ebay and decided to mod it and just tonight loaded ginger yoshi 7.1.1 onto it (android 2.3.3) and it is working flawlessly, before gingerbread i was running froyo (cyanogenmod 6.1.0 magpie) but yoshi's build is so much more snappier.

Sony Ericsson Xperia X10 Gingerbread Update Might Deliver Multi-touch and Mor

Might is a very tame word. Considering the device does not have the ability to handle anything more than dual touch, this is interesting news.
it will bring multi-touch, resolution 1024x768, blu-ray support.. etc..
and all that on 2.9.26 kernel build.. uv, oc too.. come on ppl be happy if that gb even moves with that time/medi-scape s**t...

Are you crazy? It will deliver 1440x900 resolution, 1080p recording at 60fps, 8mp cap lifted to 16.1mp, fps cap lifted to 58fps including 3D with some accents of time/mediapain.
Well, this was originally posted in brazilian Sony Ericsson official Blog, so I think we could give it a shot. A lot of people said X10 wouldn't support even dual touch, and now we have it. Maybe Sony Ericsson found a way to fix it, despite the hardware limitation, bypassing, I don't know. If SE said multitouch will come with the 2.3 update, I guess I will wait hopefully for that.
The source is in portuguese and I'm too lazy to translate it now, but you guys can believe what I'm saying or use a translator .
2.3 also brings: Full HD screen resolution, native .exe execution, CoD Black Ops pre-installed, slide out joypad like on Xperia Play, and Airplane mode finally turns phone into airplane of your choice, just like we all expected when seen it for the first time...
Also, don't forget about kexec exploit fix == stuck on SE's FW... But with all these functions, why would you want to switch to another ROM??? Enjoy
lol hahaha... iam so excited about the new GB update coming soon...
Read somewhere that the official.update will be released.at the end of July.

Nope. He hacked the CPU power to route it through a Galaxy S2
Pshhh dual core is sooo the day before, talk to me when you have 8 cores implemented
You need Galaxy S II, then with simple CPU reroute process via Wi-Fi, BT, J-Tag, USB and a few more solder points you connect X10 to Galaxy's CPU.
Then you take super glue, and stick the phones together. zdzihu will publish the pictures soon
It was easy, and during the process RSA key was found - it was a nice surprise to find all root, red and brown keys under the CPU on a piece of paper, hand-written with signature of SE's CEO

All Tiger Apps here:

They are free, there is no need to hide.
Be warned though, latest version of TigerArcade (which runs Marvel vs. Capcom perfectly) does not have save states, and the old version with save states does not work.

Absolutely doubtful. Sega, who allegedly had yongzh's emulators pulled, has not announced any plans to release anything for Android. I'd point at Gameloft who has certain interest in the XPlay but just don't want competition for the new games from the emulated ones.

If Gameloft wants to push out something original to compete with what we'd be emulating, they're more than welcome to.
Based on their other near-IP-theft jobs, I think they'd be the best candidate to try re-creating MvC... or some 2D fighter that brings mobile phone gaming out of the touch-screen-limited ghetto.

Should I make a GB ROM FOR GAMING?

Yes Should I make One for Us Folks for Gaming Il make One for .62/69 I cant find a .42 download If you have One Il make One for Locked Bootloaders .
Basically Il make a rom On basis of this (Based on Sony Framework)
*Supercharged
*Launcher Locked In memory
*Turbo 3G
*Baseband -36
*KAK (Kickasskernalizer)
*Bloatware Removed all
*Google Apps (Market etc)
*Xperia Launcher & PS Pocket
*No-Frils CPU pre-Installed
*OI file manger Pre-Installed
*Remove all Crapware
*Try to stop market Downloading the Crapware Again
Ideas Comment Below:
Ideas for more feautures Commet below please
Name Of rom ? I thought GamerBread
Wow this sounds awesome I like the sound of it. if no frills comes preinstalled then it must support overcocking right? Yeah, definately make it compatible with Doomkernel and try and overclock the gpu. Maybe you could incorporate the playstation buttons as a way of properly controling it, like the xmb. Maybe just "GameBread" for the name. Shame you can't make it for .42 (thats me lol) would have been so cool. maybe it could come preinstalled with a bunch of emulators (Like gba and stuff like that)
If it's bootloader-locked, there's no overclock available. Same goes for anything related to the kernel: bootloader-locked devices can't have modifications done to the kernel.
But They Can Change ther Governer,
Plus I'l make it Smooth No choppy Apps

Yes Il Find a .42 Download But Im going to Have to See about those EMU's are they Free?
Links anyone for Gamboid.
A Gaming ROM would be nice, but I don't see the point of making a ROM with just that... I already did all you listed in my Play and the performance is pretty much the same.
That does sound pretty cool. I'm not sure I understand the advantages/disadvantages of different basebands though and .69 vs. .64 vs. .42 etc., but it sounds like you're trying to optimize for the best Gingerbread base to support a smooth running system for gaming and all the standard stuff, which is cool.
Previously, on my Nexus One, I was willing to roll with CyanogenMod and non-stock customizations and all that, but now on my Xperia Play, gaming is a big factor as well - and from what I've seen, non-stock Roms like CyanogenMod lose a bit here - the Spider Man game from Gameloft failed to launch last time I was running CyanogenMod, so I've gone stock-based. I've also heard game compatibility isn't all there yet for ICS and there is still the debate whether an optimized and reliable Gingerbread system is better for a user than a new ICS rom that may not be as reliable/optimized yet.
So I think it may be a good idea, and I do like the GamerBread name!

Overclocking for locked bootloader is possible, but would take work, as locked bootloaders can not flash custom kernel, someone would have to compile overclock module for stock kernel.

Yes! because I plan on picking up the Galaxy Nexus and using my Xperia Play as my mini portable console.

This is an international forum, English is not the first language of many users here. That last comment was just racism in disguise. I hope the OP reports you

I have the i'm Watch (imwatch.it) I thought in buying the Sony one. But now that the have released the Sideload Manager and it now accepts a least to the best of my knowledge, Android 1.6 apps and have installed and run Angry Birds, Dolphin Browser, Opera Mini, all seem to work fine, and saw the awful Browser for the Sony, I am really no longer so sure.
If one could install, any software like in the I'm Watch into the Sony one, I will probably be buying the Sony soon. If there are limitations, probably not.

Are you loading apps via I'M Cloud or another way? I cannot get that cloud to recognize myvwatch.
Why isn't anyone here using the Motorola MotoACTV? It is still the best, in my opinion. Runs android 2.3.5, is rooted, has Roms, has root tools and even an AOSP rom already out there.

It's cheaper than the I'm watch. You can find them on ebay for between $50 and $200. I don't think that's a reason.
Although, the root tool I developed for it has been downloaded over 11,000 times now, so apparently it's being used quite a bit lol. I just want more of you guys to recognize its awesomeness.

GREAT chart, thanks for pulling it together! I've never heard of the Rock Watch -- would you happen to have a link to the manufacturer?
I also did a (limited) smartwatch comparison on my blog. There's alot of interest in how the various smart watches compare. (My comparison here.)

Ah yes! I need to add the metawatch! The rock watch is on ebay, and I think on amazon too. I can't remember who makes it, but the real world battery life is not so great, from my understanding. Still, it looks neat lol. I will complete my chart tonight if I'm able, with all their features, such as wifi, gps, vibration function, etc. I'll also try to add pictures. If you guys know if any of those prices are wrong, let me know? I tried to find retail prices for them but had problems.

Thanks for all of your hard work -- not easy to pull all the details together.
The prices you've cited look pretty accurate to me. (Note that Pebble has set $150 for non-kickstarter pricing.)
Thanks again for this handy reference chart.
Thanks for the comparisons. If I had known fhat tye motoactv was rooted with custom ROMs, I might have not bought the I'M Watch.
Here, check it out now:
Smart Watch Spec Comparison
I've added a LOT. I've still got to add the WIMM One watch and the MetaWatch though.
UPDATE: 3/11 - Added the WIMM One and MetaWatch. If anything is wrong, some places contradicted information, so please let me know!
Motoactv FTW! Runs on Android 2.3.4, runs a plethora of smart phone apps, and it's not hideously under-powered.

Good info! I have to point out though that the Motoactv runs on Android 2.3.4 (unless they updated it in the latest firmwares)
