is adb usb working with this rom??? when i put adb devices it appears an hexadecimal code and then offline.. please tell me, i need to know if adb works with usb

Edit. Yes, it works...
[Xperia Play Android Development] arian009:
Try act all smart but at the end of the day, you are the one who missed out the part that said "flash an ICS kernel, preferably advanced stock" in the original post and therefore me and other users are seeking some respected advise.
[Xperia Play Android Development] KeiranFTW:
I said that before I made my ICS kernel, which you should now flash.
[Xperia Play Android Development] NeWCuLTKiNG:
If people would read the thread we wouldn't have the same questions asked repeatedly and there wouldn't be so many pages to go through to get your answers. Read the thread guys before you ask. After reading and you don't see an answer then ask. Its not like we have 150+ pages here :beer:
[Xperia Play Android Development] DanielEGVi:
To quote myself, is this possible?

[Xperia Play Android Development] Atarii:
It's possible, anything is possible, but would take a large amount of work
[Xperia Play Android Development] thomassafca:
-------------
[Xperia Play Android Development] arian009:
Thanks, and BTW thats the answer I was looking for :P

Hence, I said I just flashed this ROM thus I have no clue about whats going on :D
[Xperia Play Android Development] CodenameZeus:
Hey, this rom comes with face unlock right? But I cant find it anywhere?
[Xperia Play Android Development] mp998:
there is only one bug i noticed. when the keyboard didnt pop up like it was installed...i fixed this by flashing the KA12 sony keyboard package. and for those that are looking for the onscreen soft keys i also flashed the KA12 onscreen buttons zip and it worded too.
[Xperia Play Android Development] Turney:
Is it possible that the button mapping of the hardware keys has gone wrong?

I just noticed it today when I wanted to play GoF2 and all that worked were the touchpads. When mapping buttons in an emulator, one of the buttons (I believe it was the circle) was shown as BACK button for example. Same problem with other buttons..
[Xperia Play Android Development] danieljamie:
I noticed Bravia Engine was missing, so I used Xperia Tweak 2 (from Keiran) to enable it, and it worked.
[Xperia Play Android Development] CodenameZeus:
ok I've tried to reflash the rom, wiped the partition cache, formated the sd card, reflashed the rom again but still no google apps. I even found the apks for faceunlock etc but it wont install. How the hell do I get them to work?

----------Edit----------------

Screw this, flashing back to stock when I get back home, list of issues;

No keyboard appearing on several occasions

No google apps

slow

doesnt shutdown properly, have to take the battery out

can't read SD card contents Nothing shows up

cant install own google apps
[Xperia Play Android Development] KeiranFTW:
You installed it wrong. Sorry but if your did stuff right, it would work...

First of all, you wiped data? You weren't meant to ...

Keyboard, go into keyboard settings and set default keyboard.

Google apps are there, with face unlock.

Shuts down fine here.

It isn't slow at all.

SD card contents read.

And gapps is already installed.

PLEASE tell me you flashed this OVER the beta ROM, with MY or DOOMLORDS latest kernel? And please say you didn't wipe anything? Because if you did its your fault, not mine.

And I said... DONT WIPE ANYTHING.

Sorry if I sound harsh, but I'm sick of people not following instructions right...
[Xperia Play Android Development] haverdaden:
hi

Hi i must say awesome work ! :) Up and running almost without any problems. But i can't get face unlock to work it just says "couldn't start faceunlock" i did everything in instructions and did NOT wipe anything. everything else works and google apps are there. (frontal camera works too so not that problem) thanks :)

Found another problem. After i press install on my computer google play i look down on my phone to see if it's downloading the app and it says Unfortunately, Google Play Store has stopped. Downloading apps from market works on phone but now from computer. sry for bad explanation.
[Xperia Play Android Development] CodenameZeus:
I understand, but after it not working, thats when I wiped stuff, don't worry I backed it up. Yeah I got onto ICS with no problem, here is what I did step by step

yes my bootloader is unlocked (before anyone says anything)

1. downloaded ICS official rom

2. using fastboot, flashed ICS

working fine

3. downloaded the latest version of your kernel

4. flashed via fastboot

5. downloaded your rom + this update

6. flashed rom but not update

7. booted up, gapps missing keyboard doesnt come up etc

8. flashed update

working to a degree, keyboard appears, no slowdowns, but no googleapps either, ontop of that, it shows nothing on my sd card

9. wiped everything and reflashed rom

10. booted up then reflashed update still no gapps

11. wipped again tried reflashing again

12. even downloaded gapps from elsewhere

13. wiped again because gapps that I got included nfc which play doesnt support and kept popping up letting me know every 1 second

so I wiped and reflashed and here we are.:confused: no gapps etc

oh and in the trebuche launcher settings, when I tap dock, icons or anything other than homescreen nothing happens?
[Xperia Play Android Development] tommoose:
Flash the main rom then flash the update then boot. Worked for me. Havent had any problems at all with this rom so far
[Xperia Play Android Development] CodenameZeus:
I already tried that. Doesnt work
[Xperia Play Android Development] NeWCuLTKiNG:
This rom needs to be flashed over Sony beta don't wipe the data partition. Don't do a factory reset its in the op
[Xperia Play Android Development] solomon4400:
is it possible to use a different launcher on this rom but as a system app?
[Xperia Play Android Development] CodenameZeus:
Hurh, to quote myself

I've already done that, I got the same problems. I flashed it, realised it didn't work then staring wiping stuff.
[Xperia Play Android Development] KeiranFTW:
Something I am working on:

New simplified PLAY launcher :)

No ETA's ;)
[Xperia Play Android Development] CodenameZeus:
Looks good man. Shame I can't use it :(

Yeah tried going back to official ICS then back to dark forest, still the same. Oh and I can't seem to install a rom from the df app or the setting part
[Xperia Play Android Development] Aesed:
Just want to clarify that you flashed DFR using CWM?
[Xperia Play Android Development] CodenameZeus:
Yep
[Xperia Play Android Development] weihong892:
my temple run is lagging, i dunno whether u guys encouter this problem. just wanna check with u guys. ):
[Xperia Play Android Development] RiThBo:
No, mine isn't lagging at all. But I am overclocked to 1.5ghz. If you don't want to over clock that much then you could try chainfire 3d from the market.
[Xperia Play Android Development] Dark_AJ9:
Trebuchet is not the best launcher to use in this rom, its a bit laggy, Apex launcher works better,try it! It's free and available in play Store.
[Xperia Play Android Development] Dark_AJ9:
Try to flash CM9 ROM (by FreeXperia) first of all , then flash Darkforest ICS, i've had the same problem as you. Good luck.
[Xperia Play Android Development] weihong892:
no more updates???
[Xperia Play Android Development] NeWCuLTKiNG:
He's busy with school. Besides its not been long since his last update. Do you expect an update every day :cool:
[Xperia Play Android Development] weihong892:
i hope it can! hahaha!
[Xperia Play Android Development] Dark_AJ9:
Try ICS++ , Atarii releases it rom frequently.
[Xperia Play Android Development] bamsbamx:

[Xperia Play Android Development] Omx302:

And why no new updates :)
[Xperia Play Android Development] solomon4400:
guys you do kno that keiran has stopped developement atm rite?
[Xperia Play Android Development] rYuuk:
@OP plz port this rom to ARC also , will be happy to test if needed.
[Xperia Play Android Development] KeiranFTW:
I don't have an arc, and don't have the time. Otherwise yeah I would port it.
[Xperia Play Android Development] bamsbamx:
What can i do to install xperia S music player???
[Xperia Play Android Development] ch3mn3y:
Is it possible to add home.apk to this rom? eg. using root explorer? Cause i tried it (copy, permissions and reboot) and it didnt show in installed apps or even after pressing home button?
[Xperia Play Android Development] bamsbamx:
yes, i did it... just copy home.apk, and delete trebuchet.apk, now can you solve my question above??
[Xperia Play Android Development] sdojoin:
If u hav the player .apk jst replce the player .apk in the rom .zip n flash the rom again.:p

Jst mke a nandroid backup if ur not so sure when u try it.:D:D:D

There's a guide for ICS. Just get your services.jar patched and use supercharger normally.

Did that n it work on Ics beta rom. Usually the supercharger noticed the patch service.jar on da system. But it didn't. So...:confused:

Does it had to do wth ths being an deodexed rom??:confused:

It doesn't have to be de-odexed to patch your services.jar (ICS++ is not de-odexed) but there's a few extra steps to do it.

[Xperia Play Android Development] DrROBschiz:
Fantastic Rom so far!

Great work.

Only been using it since last night so ill give more updated impressions once ive had more time with it.
[Xperia Play Android Development] Spizzy01:
Figured I'd give this ROM a go as my last ICS OS decided to grind to a halt and crash every 5 minutes.

I had no idea the Darkforest ROM was so stable, I had originally intended to hold out until PlAyOSP was released but my Play got REALLY bad.

I'm using with the DoomKernel at the moment, I didn't see anywhere that this was a supported Kernel but I went ahead and flashed the ROM anyway. That being said, is the Kernel fully supported? Or do specific things not work?

For example, I am unable to get WiFi to turn on.. Is that simply due it being the wrong Kernel? Or am i missing something?

I've also noticed that the graphics is a little slower than on ICS++. I wasn't able to run FPSe on either of the ROMs at 100% but it was noticeably slower on this ROM. Even with an OC of 1.6ghz.

Other than small things like that which are most likely my own doing, the ROM is pretty epic Keiran. An awesome job as usual! :) If i was being a perfectionist though, your Darkforest app could do with an icon. ><

Edit: Just to add - The 'Sound Effects' in the Music App settings kills the app.
[Xperia Play Android Development] xRegrets:
For the wifi, did you flash the modules?
[Xperia Play Android Development] Spizzy01:
I did from the DoomKernel thread yeah. I assume those are the ones you're talking about? =o
[Xperia Play Android Development] ch3mn3y:
When i was trying ics roms for play i was always using doomkernel. I had problems with wifi but only on stock beta. On ics++ and this rom it works perfectly

Try to flash it again for first step and flash first rom than update and finally the modules

Tha only problem for me is lack of home.apk

Sent using r800i with DoomKernel v14 (1.21ghz)
[Xperia Play Android Development] Zerosuit Connor:
Or try the dark forest kernel ? Built in overclock very supportive of the rom
[Xperia Play Android Development] DesmondH2O:
I dunno this is the ROM issue or my own keiran, just wanna let you know the issues I've encountered, maybe it has been mentioned before, i might just forgot.

1. slowdown issues - most of the time it happens when i try to enter drawer from homescreen.

2. game pad issues - when i press right button + square button, somehow it will somehow triggered the cross button e.g (->+[] became ->+X), this happened when i play King of fighters android.(become instant shortcut to drive activation)

3. browser FC issues - it happens whenever i try to edit URL

4. restart issues - by changing the governor to interactiveX and 460-1401 CPU speed i might get reboot sometimes. especially when i was playing some games.

5. darkforest app issues - i was trying to download the gapps from download list but after i click ok nothing happens. so i assume it's not downloading.

6 face unlock app - it says unable to start but I wouldn't use that anyway.

well...appreciated if someone could guide me on this, and about setting cpu speed and governor, i'm totally noob on this.

just a small request, keiran could you include the reboot options just like the darkforest tweak V2?

After one week of trying i have to things i am really not happy with. First thing is multitasking. There is simply no multitasking. Everything needs to reload when you click on it. It seems like nothing is kept in the RAM. Furthermore my homescreen has Problems with relaunches although my RAM does not hold any app in it :D so i think the Firmware itself uses a Lot of RAM. The second thing is battery life. While on 2.3.4 my phone had no issues to get me through the day, and i did a Lot of gaming, surfing etc, on this Rom i have to Charge it After about 9 hours, because i am at about 30% battery Hand thats without heavy use. So if anyone has a solution to this, i would be really thankful:)
