The awesomeness of the play still amazes me. It's still alive and being developed for I really really hope we can get controls and everything working! That would be beyond mazing.

yes that would be amazing.. if only the devs would let us discuss it.. cuz as per a dev.. who closed my thread.. he thinks "discussion on unfinished work is not necessary" lol .. so yeah
also you cant discuss about any Devs work too in the forums.. not even discuss wow. XDA Rocks

Why I don't under stand isn't that a good idea and awesome at thaw same time

I wish we had at least CM11 with full controls support. As 5.x isn't so amazing as some people think and 6.x may not work so good on our device (however it should), maybe better to try make something from 11?
anyone wants to test AOSP 6.0 or cm13 for Xperia Play.. let me know.. I need help in flashing it through ABD sideload. or if comeone can try on their own.

Heh maybe CM13 on xplay will work perfectly xD
I using legacyxperia nightly roms and CM11 have blackscreen sometimes (restart is needed) and camera is still not working.
CM 12.1 is near perfect, but apps are little slow. And Please don't make same mistake as legacyxperia. They moved "calling" application on SD. I have class 10 SD and when someone is calling, i hear ringtone but i need wait few secs for app to load... it rly sucks ;P

what rom is that? cause i tried aosp and cm12 and the gamepad wasn't working, not usable in game at least...and the overall rom speed wasn't that great, not daily usable at least for me, i've been using jb and now on ics and if the rom gets to that speed i'll definetly change..but for now i'm staying on ics for good gaiming and daily use, and i'll gladly get to lollipop, even if there aren't great changes, not any new features i can't live without...
Inaroom use cm 12.1 from LegacyXperia project.
I used gamepad in apps like emulators And if i remember good there was problem with circle. If you pressed circle for example in emulator, it reacts like back button. But it was fixable by some file editing.
And cm10 is near good, but i miss camera... And after installing some apps, it's slow.

For me ICS is also the best choice for Xperia Play, it offers the best overall performance.
From CM10 and higher probably touchpads will never properly work on the Xperia play, the only way they would work is if Sony realized the official drivers which will never happen.
D-pads are fixable but the development of CM for 2011 devices is so slow that it will become useless as the Xperia Play is becoming more and more obsolete.
sorry for offtopic but david7380 what rom do you use ?
Im using ICS NexPlay but after installing few apps it's slow as hell...

I use Neo2Play V2.7 and DoomKernel extracted from markphyton Xperia Play Z Rom.
Here is the link to Neo2Play Rom:

Here is the link to markphyton`s rom, you have to extract the kernel from inside the Zip:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2402227
That is the best overall performance I have found for the XPlay, although as I have mentioned before there are some apps that just make the Xperia play unusable, for example the Facebook App.
What is the best ROM for performance for this device?
I'm currently on Pure Nexus (based on 6.0.1) it's quite smooth but what bugs me is that the audio stutters when trying to multitask, like browsing, opening other apps etc.
I would appreciate if someone could give me some advice on what ROM I should use for best performance and eliminates these audio stutters if possible, because I know this device is quite old and wasn't that fast even when it came out.

I'm not sure what model you have but I've tried out a few roms. CM12.1 and Resurrection Remix 5.5.7 work pretty good on my Tilapia. Dirty unicorns 7.1.1 is pretty cool but has some bugs

Would you recommend Pure Nexus Rom? It feels a bit laggy when browsing the internet sometimes.

I tried PNP but couldn't get gapps to jive with it. I gave up and tried something else
Honestly the AOSP 7.1.2 seemed to run the best, even google assistant works on it.
<updated to AOSP 7.1.2
It is running great so far.
Currently running amaces oreo rom for both devices and well, they aren't completely stable with bugs for wifi and video, and it has been a number of years since i moved on from android 5, 6 and 7.
I'm looking for something for 1080p playback, if possible, on the hd+ and solid wifi. With no show stopping bugs.
Maybe android 6 or 7?
Thanks.
Currently running the last Nougat rom on both Hummingbird and Oviation.
No wifi issues on both. HD playback works great on both. Full hd playback plays on hummingbird with issues, oviation however is not able to.
Maybe a MM rom for both.

My husband ran the last version of CM 13 (hummingbird) with HDMI-out capability for several years before moving on to different hardware. Other than the shutdown issue it performed very well for him with both MX Player and Kodi.

Thanks for the info!
I'm currently running amaces last aosp mm rom on the oviation and fullhd playback isnt an issue on vlc and newpipe for youtube. Just needed to downgrade twrp and install it alongside magisk for root.
I was planning on getting a newer device, which would have better hardware obviously, but i'm reluctant to contribute to ewaste when i have a working device.
i'm keeping the hummingbird on nougat since i don't really need it for media usage.
Both devices still work incredibly well as ereaders, duh, when paired with the fantastic app Koreader. Which is what i mainly use them for.
Thanks and i hope this helps someone.
I know that most Lineage ROMs for the v20 treat the second screen as a notch area. But wasn't there a Lineage that did have a second screen working like the stock second screen? Was it for Nougat? Or Oreo? Does anyone have a link to it? Thanks!
Yes, there were LineageOS 15.1 and Resurrection Remix 6 builds on Oreo that had some second screen functionality, though they were never updated much. Some more links may be hiding in their respective general ROM threads, but you can start looking here:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/bounty-progress-on-the-second-screen-api-for-aosp.3549121/page-43
Thanks
Seems like the links are not working when I search for the 2nd screen versions.
Anyone still have links?
The folders for both LOS 15.1 and Resurrection Remix 2nd screen builds can be found here:
https://androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=273537
Thank you so much, I didn't find these on my initial quick search.

Never used any Lineage ROM due to being in VoLTE territory, but I imagine the differences are similar to most non-stock ROMs: Overall lighter and faster, surely better battery life, but all the LG stock functions (like full second screen functionality, VoLTE, Wi-Fi calling, FM radio, LG apps like stock camera, calendar, gallery, music, HD audio recorder, quickmemo, quickremote) won't work.

As above it says LOS 15.1 had functioning second screen + on reddit you told me Alpha omega did have second screen support. (How about LG apps?)

Since Alpha Omega is stock-based, everything works. From what I read, the LOS 15.1 second screen is much more limited than what you get on stock because no one has figured out LG's closed-source proprietary files just like all the other functions and LG apps.

Kk. and the LG photo app isin't on 15.1? But thx for the info! (I doubt people will be able to gl-around/reverse engineer unless of a release/leak)

Yeah, I don't expect any LG-branded apps to run outside of stock-based ROMs.
Obviously there is a new custom Rom for Pixel 3a (Sargo) based in Android 12
https://download.pixelexperience.org/sargo
I didn' t try ist out yet but just in case someone wants to try
I flashed this, though my 3a is not my daily, just a second phone for playing with custom ROMs. It all looks good without testing too much, faceunlock works.
Can't comment on kernel stuff because I flashed a custom one
I flashed it - more snappy than stock of course and it's a stock rom...works well for that! As stock, it doesn't have some features I like so I moved on but for what it is - it's a gem
I've just installed it and hot diggity dang, it feels awesome.
edit: it even updated today, awesome!
Does the camera work as well as it does on the stock ROM? I want to switch to pixel experience but the loss of gcam worries me. Nice one

I have the same concern. If I moved to PE, will I still be able to use the official GCam from Playstore?
