I dont realy mean these games like "angry birds, burn the rope, etc"

I mean games that dont have 2 minute intro and long cut scenes =.=

Something like Quake 3 for example, logo and BOOM, you are in the menu, choose the map and you are ready to go, maps also load pretty fast.

Shadowgun and MC3 are in the edges of time consuming and "ihave20minutesfreetime games"

And maybe i worded it wrong, with visualy demanding i meant more about visualy "chalenging"

You dont need those extra visuals for some games, slows down loading times and just gets you too glued to the game.
[Xperia Play General] psxpetey:
Quake 3 is awesome! I remeber they put the warrior within on iphone and it was amazing I dont mean like currently quality balls deep in that ass hard games I mean older console quality like ps1 and 2 something that has a storyline but is better then what gameloft makes
[Xperia Play General] sufy1000:
I like playing pick up and play games. Like playing emulators on the Xperia Play.

HD games like Shadowgun, GTA 3, MC3 are awesome but drains my battery like hell ! I'll play them but only for a short time like maybe about 5-10 mins.
[Xperia Play General] psxpetey:
Minecraft kills batterys I play GTA

All the time
[Xperia Play General] sufy1000:
GTA 3 sucks a lot of battery as well.
[Xperia Play General] silvacrest:
there is a middle ground to this....PSP games
[Xperia Play General] Rogue Leader:
I played Shadowgun for a little over an hour last night and it only drained my battery by about 19%. Now that is not great, but its really not that horrible when you consider the battery life of other game devices (PSP, Vita, etc). Some games its not even as bad, I spent over an hour at the DMV once playing various games (like Battlefield 2, NFS Hot Pursuit, etc) and used only 15%. My phone is barely modded at all, just rooted, with the setinstalllocation2 trick, and a 32gb sandisk card.
[Xperia Play General] sufy1000:
When you played Shadowgun was that from a 100% charge ?
[Xperia Play General] Rogue Leader:
No it was at 89%. It does seem to last even longer a 100%.

If I start playing heavier games for an hour and the phone is at around 40% it will be at 15% by the end of the hour, so it does seem to hit it worse at lower charges but not much.
[Xperia Play General] TDMaster:
as long the specs is not quad core i dont think it worth it espically when any other new phone is quad core
[Xperia Play General] killardkaiser:
better touch pad

i really do hate the touch pad

1st sony could of increased the size of them by around 2-5% because theres a good bit of space on the controller

2nd they could of used n3ds slide thingy on the top right and that would be much better

3rd for the xplay2 i hope they have ps3 graphics and sen accounts on it which would be very good
[Xperia Play General] eksasol:
Why does it needs to be quad core. That eats more battery and create heat. We have too many overpriced phone wanting to max out spec, but doesn't truly improvd the user experience. Only until ICS is Android beginning to be optimized for multiple cores, but almost all the apps in the market are not and well as many non-stock interfaces. High spec need good softwares to take advantage of the technology as well, this is why I bought the XperiaPlay in the first place because it has a strong games library and the features stand out, even though I could have gone for a more expensive dualcore phone.

ur funnies lolz
[Xperia Play General] TheCraig:
The problem with "3rd" is that the PS3 is a HUGE power consumer and well come on Battery is something we have not improved within the past decade, its getting worse and worse, I think Sony, HTC, Samsung and other Android companies should invest in better Battery, until then as we develop more powerful hardware battery will start to drop.
[Xperia Play General] TDMaster:
in a quad core system developers can use it to develop new emulator from newer consoles..
[Xperia Play General] Nhialor:
this is the most retarded looking conecpt in the world. unless that screen is atleast a 12inch screen, the buttons would be only suitable for a barn mouse to play with. they are tiny.
[Xperia Play General] TDMaster:
i think that 5 or 4.7 wont be that bad for the next phone its will be great .. :)
[Xperia Play General] :
I love my play, but I couldn't resist the urge to pick up the new Yinlips, the idea of an android vita with an hdmi out was to great to resist! I got the new YDPG18 V2/Upgraded Version. It has a screen protector on it in this picture.
[Xperia Play General] Thewonderboy:
Oooor simply dont reharsh old, instead create something new relativly similar content ;)
[Xperia Play General] Logseman:
Legion, how's that Vita KIRF specs wise? I recall the Play KIRF had hideous specs, but with Allwinner chips and dual core stuff selling for cheap, maybe they've hashed something decent this time.
[Xperia Play General] :
Its decent for the price. 1.5ghz proc with mali400 gpu(I know I know everything comes with mali nowadays) Android 2.3, 800x480 5-inch(like the Vita! well not the resolution.....) screen with 2 point multi-touch. HDMI out. Front and rear facing cameras. Microsd, gyro, and the usual sensors. Suprisingly good build quality for 120$. I am actually quite fond of this device, I am waiting for the hdmi cable in the mail to try out the tv capabilities!

Now one that could really be considered crappy is my JXD S601, resolution is 480x272, but still actually a great device for 60$.
[Xperia Play General] crono141:
I'd buy an xperia play 2. Sales were really poor for XPlay1 because the hardware was old and weak when it came out compared to other phones launching at the time. Droid 3 was out or about to come out. Droid X2 had just come out (first dual core phone on verizon). Everything had a 512 to 1gb of ram, everything had multiple gigs of internal storage. We've got almost 400 mb of internal, 355 meg of ram. Battery life is also kinda weak. This was a disappointing phone spec wise, but its great for gaming with. I'd welcome an XP2 with more ram and more internal storage, and a brighter screen. Single core/dual core doesn't matter much with ICS since the UI is fully accelerated anyway. I think sony could do very well with an XP2 that addresses all the shortcomings of the current model.
[Xperia Play General] captain67:
Sales aren't as bad for the play as you might think. On the Sony mobile Facebook page, they asked people which phone they have, and I saw a LOT of play users. Just because the xda community for the play is small doesn't mean it isn't selling.

[Xperia Play General] :
one thing I will say is if there ever is a Sexplay 2, it BETTER have HDMI out!!! My kirf vita kicks ass for that reason alone. Imagine the marketing possibilities.
[Xperia Play General] Logseman:
Hell, that's a sweet deal for 120 dollars. If my Play bites the dust and I'm not happy with the successor, it would be worth checking it out. Certainly it's unbeatable as a retro gaming console.
[Xperia Play General] :
There are already several communities doing epic work for these like full Xperia Play system mods and button remaps! Pretty cool stuff. I would recommend either the Yinlips or the JXD. The Yinlips is worth the extra money definitely, but you can get two jxd's for the price of one yinlips.
[Xperia Play General] Fuegeaux:

[Motorola Droid 4] gossipninja:
Didn't see any info about it here, so I figured I would chime in with some initial impressions.

The inductive back is a smooth texture, not crosshatched like the D4 is standard. It is a small distinction that I am sure will fade over time, but for now, it feels too slippery.

The inductive back does increase the thickness of the droid 4, it isn't a lot, but it is probably enough to make some cases not work. I still have to source an otterbox case to see if a) it fits, and b) to see if the case interferes with the inductive charge, I will report back when I find out.

I am at the office, so I cannot actually see how it plays with my energizer qi pad, hopefully it doesn't beep all the time like the verizon one reportedly does.

Pics below

[Motorola Droid 4] podspi:
Let us know how it works!

And bleh, Verizon charging pad beeps constantly? That... seems silly, to put it politely...
[Motorola Droid 4] gossipninja:
Well I havent used the verizon pad, but that is what I heard, beeps all the time, beep on connect, beep on full, beep on release.

I have had my droid on the energizer pad and it works and there were no beeps.

I like that orientation doesn't seem crucial. I had my phone at different angles and as long as you get the blue light, you are good to go.

I did see a demo where Panasonic made qi charger with a moving coil

youtube.com/watch?v=an7lWob6ZrE

That would rock, as then you don't have to worry about placement (not that that is a huge issue)
[Motorola Droid 4] gossipninja:
Quick update about the charger

I am having some issues, namely the phone will indicate it is charging, the charge pad will indicate it is charging, and yet after hours my battery meter has barely moved. Interestingly enough the phone lasts seems to last quite awhile on 20% battery. I think something is goofy with the battery reporting.

I will likely fully charge the phone over usb and then discharge as normal and see if that "resets" it.

I also worry that on and after you remove the phone from the charge pad the back is INCREDIBLY hot. Hot to the point where I am worrying it is hurting the battery.

Does anyone have the safe temp range for Droid 4 batteries? So I can monitor it.

If things don't sort out this weekend, I will be contacting Motorola about my issues.
[Motorola Droid 4] podspi:
I wonder if they will tell you to use the 'official' pad...

Also, you could try downloading Battery Monitor Widget to see what is going on wrt charging and discharging, including (dis)charge rates.
[Motorola Droid 4] gefagan:
According to Wikipedia, operating temp for Li-ion batteries is up to 158F...however, heat above room temp causes them to lose capacity. The more "full" they are, the more capacity they lose in hot weather. Temps north of 100F in conjunction with a full charge would cause them to lose a third of their capacity in a year. Continuing to charge them past the point where they're full causes them to heat up, and eventually enter thermal runaway, a chain reaction that guarantees they keep heating until they ignite. Modern devices of course are designed to sense that point and stop before it's too late; that's why a multi-cell battery may never reach 100% charge: If one cell is at 100%, the charger stops, leaving the rest at a mere ninety-something.

GEF
[Motorola Droid 4] gossipninja:
well at one point today, i think the phone did overheat and would not turn on for about 20 minutes, the back was quite hot. Since then, I had it fully charge on the inductive pad (energizer qi) and it was not hot and fully charged.

I will be angry if I am told I have to use the VZW pad, what is the point of a standard if they don't follow it?

As far as thermal runaway, the Droid 4 does auto turn off charging when it is full whether on the pad or usb.
[Motorola Droid 4] podspi:
Wow... You are making me reconsider the induction pad. It sounds great, but if it generates excess heat, that might be a bad tradeoff given the battery isn't replaceable.
[Motorola Droid 4] podspi:
Just received mine in the mail this morning! I haven't played around with it too much, just confirmed it works (charged from 90% --> 100%).

I don't know whether I have an updated version or what, but the beep isn't too bad. I would say my dishwasher's beep is louder. I can see it being annoying if it was in a bedroom or something, but for my office (at home) it isn't too bad.
[Motorola Droid 4] WScottCross:
Ever get the Otterbox case to see if it fits with the inductive battery cover?
[Motorola Droid 4] gossipninja:
No I have not found a verizon store that has one I can try on and test with a charging pad.

I know the inductive case makes it a hair thicker so I worry about both fit, and charging.
[Motorola Droid 4] sdunt:
Droid 4 + Charging Back + OtterBox Does NOT fit

Sorry to jump on someone else's thread, but I have received an Otter Box case for Motorola Droid 4 and I also have the inductive charging back, and with the charging back on the phone, the rear part of the case will NOT FIT.

I have tried the plastic rear case itself without the silicone rubber insert and even that won't fit.

I have left a post with Otterbox support to see if they MIGHT be working on a new case, But, I don't hold out much hope for that.

I have not received my charging pads yet, so I can not say if the Droid 4 can be charged through the case or not.. When I get the pads I'll give it a try and report back.
[Motorola Droid 4] 24fan4life:
Exactly how does this work? Does it plug into the usb port, or just replace the original back?

The reason I am asking is my daughter just recently broke the usb port on her Droid 4. I tried to get it fixed at a local computer/cellphone repair center, but they coudln't get the part to fix the port. Today I threw in the towel, and used my insurance.

I was told it just replaced the back, as far as the Verizon rep could tell, it didn't plug into the usb port, but I didn't want to pony up the money for the back, and a mat just to find out I had to replace the phone anyhow.
[Motorola Droid 4] sdunt:
Contacts are internal

The charging back has 4 contacts on it that connect to the internal connections of the phone.
[Motorola Droid 4] podspi:
It doesn't use the USB port. That's actually why I got one. I wanted to avoid wear and tear on the USB port.

That being said, I'd see if Verizon would send you a new one? They generally will unless there is evidence of gross abuse...
[Motorola Droid 4] 24fan4life:
Thank you both for your replies, but I already used my insurance. I already took it into Verizon to see if they could do anything for us at the store. When the representative that helped us saw that the case around the screen was cracked, he told us if we attempted to use the warranty that Motorola would have said the reason the port no longer worked was from being dropped, even though being dropped had nothing to do with the port coming loose.

She now has a protective case for it, and hopefully keeps it on there, so the warranty can be used if it has port issues like the first one.

I am still thinking about getting her an inductive charge back, to keep wear and tear off the port. She tends to have it plugged in by her bed, and randomly answers texts throughout the night.
[Motorola Droid 4] WScottCross:
That's the problem, if you get the inductive charging cover, no current cases will fit. Since there is no possibility of using an extended battery with the Droid 4, the case manufacturers ASSUME that nobody needs a larger case. The inductive cover is not common and therefore is too much of a niche market for anyone to make a case for it. I tried hacking up a regular case but it didn't work out.

[Motorola Droid 4] neil_swann80:
Did you get it working?
[Motorola Droid 4] gossipninja:
The vzw store let me test fit one.

It didn't fit, that fraction of a mm added by the new back was too much. Maybe a heat gun could loosen the case a hair but I didn't want to buy the case to find out.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jazz Like That:
Of course there is Stock ICS but not official one. The latest one that is released for i9100 is XXLPJ ICS 4.0.3 firmware.

Now my doubt is can we just flash it directly over CM9?

Heard from one of my friend that in 'samsung galaxy s' we cannot simply restore CM7 backup over CM9. Firsly we have to flash CM7 over CM9 and then we have to restore the CM7 backup.

For S2, downgrading to GB from CM7 is fine. But what about from CM9? Can we directly flash ICS or do we have to come to GB first and then upgrade to ICS?

Actually I would have flashed it yesterday itself but am just waiting for some replies. Till today night I am gonna wait and then I will flash it and reply here.

Ok you guys are not going to believe this. Since my wife is a data hog doing 40 gigabytes a month they gave her a Droid 4. She was using a 3G LG Ally

They said they want to get the heavy users off of the 3G network. So as an incentive they are giving discounts to people that are heavy users with 3g phones to upgrade to 4G usually 100 off. My wife was an extreme case so they gave her the droid 4 for free. How backwards and awesome is that? So moral of the story.... be a data hog and get yourself a free 4G device. LOL :D
