[Xperia Play Android Development] xRegrets:
I also have that problem, what I did is that whenever there's the 'no service' in the statusbar, I would just go to network operators to just choose my telco again, this usually fixes it.
[Xperia Play Android Development] olokos:
I tryed the same thing too. But after some time it pops up an error with registering or sth like that...
[Xperia Play Android Development] xRegrets:
Hmm, how 'bout trying to flash .62 stock and reinstall everything? That may fix it? I'm not that sure though.
[Xperia Play Android Development] olokos:
it couldnt be that hard to fix it... i mean that i've never had problems except this one. And i can see that sometimes when i long press power i see airplane mode changing itself veeeery quick without doing anything from my side.

What could it be?

I tryed to reflash milestone 6 and it hasn't helped tho. Only thing that helps is switching phone down and then turning in on. But not always. :mad:
[Xperia Play Android Development] CosmicDan:
I had that problem once in a different ROM (airplane mode rapid switching), reflashing .62 FTF seemed to fix it (I haven't had any reception/GSM issues since). Could be a bug in this AOKP though.
[Xperia Play Android Development] olokos:
now the same issue even on .62 ftf. but now it says "sim card dont allow connection with this network" but im trying to connect to my home network. As i crawled through web it seems that my sim card got ****ed up because it's old :) im going to get a new one tommorow.

Oh and i have one issue which have been in this port of AOKP for AGES! im talking about such simple thing as unlocking phone only by pressing menu button. It worked when i've been using CM7 but on this ROM it doesn't.
[Xperia Play Android Development] CosmicDan:
Funny you say that, my Xperia Play screwed up my SIM Card about two weeks ago. Just randomly stopped working. Was only about a year old and I've never had a SIM card "die" before!
[Xperia Play Android Development] olokos:
weird thing. Now im calling my provider to know where i can exchange it.

EDIT

Yeah, the SIM card was faulty. Got new one and everything is ok now :) but menu button unlocking still dont work :(
[Xperia Play Android Development] philster16:
The from has suddenly become unstable after weeks of normality, keeps freezing and most times ends up rebooting, I have tried changing governors,frequencies, tried wiping devlic cache .any suggestions?
[Xperia Play Android Development] CosmicDan:
Overclock damage maybe? Lower speeds. Rogue app maybe? Use SD Maid app to clean system.

[Xperia Play Android Development] philster16:
Tried cleaning up the system and apps, tried lowering speeds but that pretty much brings the phone to a stand still
[Xperia Play Android Development] CosmicDan:
Sounds like hardware damage then.
[Xperia Play Android Development] Delons:
Can we expect any updates to this? Or even Jelly Bean?

Installed it and using it!
[Xperia Play Android Development] farenheith:
You can take a look on the Aokp news.

I think this ROM will get as update as soon as they release a new version
[Xperia Play Android Development] cj360:
Its wip ;) jb repositorys are being worked on as well as merged to aokp.
[Xperia Play Android Development] consegregate:
I am going to flash an ICS rom because apparently the updated adreno libraries works wonders. But I wonder if this rom has a snappy ui? It seems that although animations are smooth, transition between apps are slow, maybe a ram problem for other ICS roms.
[Xperia Play Android Development] CosmicDan:
Use Turbo kernel for more RAM ;)
[Xperia Play Android Development] Zerobarat1:
I can't find Market after I installed the Rom and GAPPS. I've installed GAPPS 2 times up till now.
[Xperia Play Android Development] MonY960:
can't mount ext partition !!! I'm now on LuPuSv4 when i try to format /sd-ext/ gave me this error

Formatting /sd-ext...
Error mounting /sd-ext!
Skipping format...
Done.

I want to use Link2sd when i open the app and select "ext4"

:(
[Xperia Play Android Development] solomon4400:
I use ext3 works just fine
[Xperia Play Android Development] CosmicDan:
You should really only use ext2 for sd-ext because 3 and 4 have journaling which will cause the sdcard to die quicker with no performance benefit (sometimes worse actually due to overhead). There's a reason it's disabled by default in CM9 kernel :)
[Xperia Play Android Development] MonY960:
i think my sdcard is dead ! but it work in my PC ?? good buy 32gb :(

hello again 8gb :)

i'm thinking of buying a new one but class 10 :D
[Xperia Play Android Development] solomon4400:
O word sorry read somewhere that ext3 was the way to go because of performance. O well I will switch that up. Wanna save this class 10 32gb sd. Thanks Dan
[Xperia Play Android Development] CosmicDan:
This is true, ext3 performs better than ext2 - but only because of journaling. In the case of flash-based storage like the microSD, it's actually bad.

"ext2 is still the filesystem of choice for flash-based storage media (such as SD cards, and USB flash drives), since its lack of a journal minimizes the number of writes, and flash devices have a limited number of write cycles."

The main reason journaling provides performance benefits is because it reduces the need to seek and can help make up for filesystem fragmentation, but both these factors are not a problem for flash storage because there is a near-zero seek time.

ext4 is the same case. It will have better performance but not so for flash-based storage. There are more features that ext3 and 4 have over 2, but they are all practically useless for Android (and embedded Linux) and will result in slightly higher memory and CPU overhead. On our device with only 512MB of RAM, keeping memory usage down is essential!

BTW, even if you have an ext3/4 filesystem, you should be able to chose "ext2" in Link2SD and it will mount it in ext2 backwards-compatibility mode. This is OK and has the same effect, there's no real need to reformat it as ext2 (unless it still doesn't work of course).

From what I know, ext3 and 4 should have journaling disabled in the kernel level (otherwise your microSD will not last). However, ext3/4 tend to be corrupted easier when journaling is turned off because it depends on it's journaling feature for recovery.

I used to use ext3 myself, but I would occassionally get FC's from e.g. games that were linked to the card. I discovered that the filesystem kept getting corrupted. Since I switched to ext2 (a long time ago), I noticed better performance (maybe because of the errors, maybe because of less overhead) and never had any filesystem problems since.

In summary - ext3/4 might provide a negligible performance boost over ext2, but probably not because it's performance benefit is designed to make up for mechanical harddisk with seeking delays - not a problem for flash storage. And only when journaling is enabled. And journaling will trash the microsd very quickly.

Also, write speed on ext2 filesystems is always faster than ext3 and 4 (sequential write - but again, since Flash storage has a near-zero seek time, random-write is nearly the same speed).

Thank you for reading :)

does anybody have a fix for the gamepad? the 'O" button acting as back button in game, thus it sometimes killing the game... (seems like known bugs on few ROM)

tried few fixes uploaded on this thread, mostly kill WiFi or kill the gamepad function itself... =.=

also, is there anybody here able to Play PES with functional gamepad?
[Xperia Play Android Development] DubleJayJ:
What kernel do I use?
[Xperia Play Android Development] Supervenom:
Good question! I don't know... Try it out and let me know.
[Xperia Play Android Development] NeWCuLTKiNG:
Advanced stock ics kernel works with your rom. Allows deep sleep but you will need to install wifi modules and run the script at boot "insmod /system/lib/modules/bcm4329.ko" for wifi to work
[Xperia Play Android Development] Supervenom:
Very interesting! But why do you need to run the script on every boot? It isn't enough flashing modules once?
[Xperia Play Android Development] -S.E.R.K.4.N-:
How can i run the script ?
[Xperia Play Android Development] Nabeel_Nabs:
SAve it as a file to your sd card,dwonload script manager and set it to launch at boot (similar to how you would for supercharger).
[Xperia Play Android Development] Zerobarat1:
Can the Adreno drivers be flashed on any ICS rom?

Are the drivers included in Sony Beta?
[Xperia Play Android Development] Supervenom:
Yes, on any ICS Rom, and I think they are not included in ICS Beta.
[Xperia Play Android Development] Logseman:
For the sake of your sanity, you'd do well in ignoring that guy.

XPlay-Swype
[Xperia Play Android Development] Supervenom:
Ok, I've tried DoomLord Advanced Kernel. Unfortunally it breaks video playback. You can choose: video playback or deep sleep
[Xperia Play Android Development] cj360:
OP says data is working but I can't get data working with the kernel you gave or pax's modified one for his cdma cm9 build.

wifi works great tho
[Xperia Play Android Development] Supervenom:
If you are CDMA I don't know how to help you. Try to insert manually APN or ask in other CDMA threads.
[Xperia Play Android Development] cj360:
edit- lol I kinda got cdma data working on this but I broke su app.

just wanted to try it cuz its got theme support
[Xperia Play Android Development] AudioCreaper:
Great Rom! minor gripe though, I cant disable auto light sensor. I mean i can but when the screen dims it turns to automatic brightness again.
[Xperia Play Android Development] Supervenom:
I don't know if it is ROM or Kernel related.
[Xperia Play Android Development] cj360:
You can disiable it with either one. Disable Auto Brightness Xperia or KeiranFTW made a script for a version of his darkforest kernel that disabled the als upon boot.
[Xperia Play Android Development] Supervenom:
ROM updated to Build 32
[Xperia Play Android Development] NeWCuLTKiNG:
What does build 32 do?
[Xperia Play Android Development] pricey2009:
Its probably just updated to latest AOKP sources
[Xperia Play Android Development] Supervenom:
It's so.
[Xperia Play Android Development] KeiranFTW:
Changes your version number one more than 31 :D

Look at the AOKP changelog.

And you all should consider clicking thanks to the dev, he did all this with little support, for a rom that we are lucky to have :)
[Xperia Play Android Development] CosmicDan:
Edit build.prop and change all "zeus" to "R800i".
[Xperia Play Android Development] DubleJayJ:
First ROM and it's great. Nice and smooth.
[Xperia Play Android Development] otonieru:
Turbo Kernel is Good, smooth and fast on my AOKPlay

---------- Post added at 04:48 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:37 PM ----------

doesn't seem to work,

i think my build prop been edited before,

do u have the original build.prop for reference?

here's my build.prop anyway
[Xperia Play Android Development] CosmicDan:
Dunno, that works fine for me in other ROM's and fixes all games and emulators. Must be the specific game. You could edit the keylayout to change circle button from BACK to BUTTON_B but that's a dirty hack. Search for circle button fix for that one.
[Xperia Play Android Development] otonieru:
doesn't work either, tried re-map the button, it ends up messing my whole keypad...

btw, can u post your build.prop?

thank you anyway for fixing suggestion,

i guess there's no wya to get fully working gamepad without using sony beta ICS as base
[Xperia Play Android Development] CosmicDan:
Must be a buggy game then. I dont use this ROM but the relevant build properties are the same.

EDIT: Why is your starting heap size so huge? Whatever tweak you used, thats a bad value and apps will use unnecessary memory.

Sent from Xperia Play (R800a) with Tapatalk
[Xperia Play Android Development] otonieru:
what i really want to play with gamepad support is PES2012, but it seems PES failed to detect any custom ROM which not based on beta ICS as proper Xperia Play, thus it won't let u play using gamepad, only virtual joystick

heapsize? u mean 5MB? is it too big? what is normal heapsize for this phone? O.o

i think it tweaked by supercharger v6...
[Xperia Play Android Development] solomon4400:
heads up guys jellybean build 1 released!!! dont think its that stable though. just wanted to share
[Xperia Play Android Development] DubleJayJ:
Runs great with LuPuS ICS Kernel. Nice, fast and good ROM
[Xperia Play Android Development] DubleJayJ:
One problem, is this just me or, do MMS not send?
[Xperia Play Android Development] NeWCuLTKiNG:
You probably need to set apn for your carrier in settings
[Xperia Play Android Development] DubleJayJ:
APN? You mean a VPN?
[Xperia Play Android Development] paxChristos:
Nope, you need to set APN info for Verizon.
[Xperia Play Android Development] DubleJayJ:
I searched up how to set it, it said go into Networks > Mobile Network Settings and then APN. I don't see APN o_O

EDIT - Nevermind. Found an app that let's me access it. I'm adding one now. What's the settings for Verizon APN?

EDIT2- Found the APN settings but whenever I do it, they don't save. OK, if anyone has the settings for an R800x, tell me.
[Xperia Play Android Development] otonieru:
Hi, can someone post original gamepad and touchpad system files of this ROM? I tried to fix the circle button with no avail.. restoring from nandroid, but now my gamepad stop working in few games. It work with original files so must be messed up when i mod something.

Thank you
[Xperia Play Android Development] Selim873:
Is it me? Or are SO many apps showing up as incompatible now on the Play Market? Switching to Amazon Apps right now, hopefully that'll fix some issues.
[Xperia Play Android Development] DubleJayJ:
Must be just you. Everything is fine on my end.
[Xperia Play Android Development] Selim873:
Okay, I found another bug, I'll make a logcat later. When I try to record a video, the camera app force closes after hitting stop. The video file saves but it's corrupted.
[Xperia Play Android Development] CosmicDan:
Which kernel are you using? Are you recording in 480p?
[Xperia Play Android Development] Selim873:
LuPuS v4 BFS. Yes, 480p.
[Xperia Play Android Development] olokos:
Try turbo-2 kernel with normal partition size. 720p crashes like that on every rom tho... 480p runs just fine

Tapped with Xperia Play running AOKP 4.0.4 Milestone 6
[Xperia Play Android Development] CosmicDan:
So does 480p recording work for you?

At least try Lupus without BFS. I was the guy who ported it but quickly removed it when I found it to be unstable. Even the newest versions of BFS for Linux (incompatible with our kernel) are still regarded experimental.
[Xperia Play Android Development] DubleJayJ:
Is there any way to make ICS sounds louder? They seem a little quiet.
[Xperia Play Android Development] cj360:
Kinda, the easiest way imo use dsp manager or another music player with a built in equalizer and play with the settings to make it louder. Xloud as other things that rely on sony's framework are annoying to port.
[Xperia Play Android Development] DubleJayJ:
I need it louder for my alarm clock.
[Xperia Play Android Development] CosmicDan:
Use DSP Manager and set the treble (highest bar) to max for speaker. You must be a heavy sleeper, alarm is pretty loud for me!
[Xperia Play Android Development] DubleJayJ:
Depends. Some nights, I wake up on every little thing. Other nights, good luck. :D

---------- Post added at 10:30 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:25 PM ----------

[Xperia Play Android Development] paxChristos:
Flash the Atarii/KeiranFTW Porting zip, see if that fixes it.

Pax
[Xperia Play Android Development] DubleJayJ:
That's right. Seems to be the only ZIP i didn't re-flash whenever I just re-installed the ROM. Thanks.

---------- Post added at 10:57 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:52 PM ----------

Flashed the ZIP. Still nothing. I just flashed the baseband. Waiting for it to boot up.

---------- Post added at 10:58 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:57 PM ----------

Nothing. Grr. Gonna flash stock, then redo it.

---------- Post added at 11:08 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:58 PM ----------

Well, stuck re-doing stock. I tried flashing 2.3.3 Kernel and getting into CWM but wouldn't load odd enough.

I just want to say awesome ROM sv. I am pleased so far. My only concern may not even be ROM related but in the few days of using I've noticed an exponential decrease in battery stability. Not sure if you would have any advice. Also would me not clearing the dalvik cache cause some issues I may not be noticing. But all in all nice work. Will still be using as daily driver.

Edit: just had to find right gov setting. But would it be too late to clear dalvik in recovery.

Alright I love this Rom. But I have been trying to get wifi to work on my r800x for about a day know and am becoming frustrated... I've tried DooMLoRDs kernel along with flashing his wifi fix also his wifi enabler and I wrote persist.wifienable=1 in the Build.prop. I also tried KeiranFTW kernel with no avail, then wedgess's LuPuS kernel.I tried the wifi enablers on all the kernels. I've read all the forums related to this rom and the kernels, the only other thing I've found but haven't tried is flashing a different baseband. Anywho any help would be greatly appreciated.
[Xperia Play Android Development] cj360:
Go to \system\lib\modules and delete bcm4329.ko. Then try flashing the modules for which ever kernel you want to use. And try it without persist.wifienable=1 in your build.prop.
[Xperia Play Android Development] Schwabie64:
Will try. Thank you for the response.

Tried on LuPus kernel and didn't work :[. Booting DooMs kernel now.

Tried on Dooms still no luck :{. Isn't KeiranFTWs kernel supposed to have the wifi files already fixed? I'm flashing his again...

Any other ideas? KeiranFTWs didn't work either...
[Xperia Play Android Development] Selim873:
I just wanted to bring this up again, I have to find apps outside of Google Play and it's really bugging me, I can't get Chrome, Draw Something, the official Facebook app, those are only a small number of apps that worked on every other rom, plus stock. Over half of the apps I search for say incompatible and it's killing me. :(

I want to keep AOKP running too.
[Xperia Play Android Development] cj360:
Check the thread for the touchpad

fix and change your build prop to r800i. And match his changes in red.

[Xperia Play Android Development] Schwabie64:
Have you changed the dpi?
[Xperia Play Android Development] Selim873:
You know... I might have! I've had this Rom for a few months so it's possible.

EDIT: Yep, I did, it was at 200, setting it back to stock 240. As much as I don't like it, might as well for the sake of apps.

EDIT2: Still showing many incompatible apps... I looked up Facebook and Draw Something Free. They worked on Stock Gingerbread and I'm pretty sure they worked on another ICS rom too. Lemme restore the back up build.prop.

EDIT3: Restored it, then changed the DPI back to default, cleared ALL Market Data, even uninstalled Google Play Services app. Still showing incompatible.
[Xperia Play Android Development] Schwabie64:
I would recommend downloading lcd density modder. It allows you to change the dpi then download a modded play store. I have mine set to 200 as well through that app and have no problems with incompatibility ;). You may need to download the pro version, just fyi...
[Xperia Play Android Development] Selim873:
That did it! Thank you so much! :) I can switch to ChompSMS too! :laugh:

[Xperia Play Android Development] olokos:
No, it's not. It's abandoned. At least it's smooth ;)
[Xperia Play Android Development] solomon4400:
lets just hope that supervenom updates this to latest fxp release. this is by far the best ics experience for our play. way smooth, fast, reliable, games run like, if not then closest to gb for me at least, and as hard as it is to admit because i love miui i honestly think aokp has slightly better themes. all it needs is to be and updated and bt functionality and it would be my prime until i get a new phone.;)

Are you all saying that this rom is smoother/snappier than fxp cm9.. I heard it was slower.

What did you do to have that much free ram? Do you use zram? If not what did you freeze?
[Xperia Play Android Development] farenheith:
You're right. I tried AOKP on my phone and the games is really smoother on it... I almost could play GTA III...

The games was running smooth, without lag, without no problem at all... but, after 3 minutes, more or less, the phone suddenly freeze as usual :(.

But is the most close of a playable GTA I ever get on ICS.

I took a look on the logcat and it's what CosmicDan already reported on his thread, obviously.

[Xperia Play Android Development] olokos:
I don't really know because last FXP i used was 7.X. But i bet that AOKP is the most functional and configurable ROM and additionally it's one of the smoothest rom's.

So our Play's just dont have enough RAM / Graphics memory? Is there any way to enter sth like "gaming mode" on our phone and unleash it's full power to play GTA III? Or at least ROM which u can run from cwm (not flash, just temporary run) so we can play it?
[Xperia Play Android Development] farenheith:
No... I think it's an ICS issue, at least on the play. You can play GTA on GB, and someone (I don't remember who) told me that he could play GTA on JB. I google the error and found this thread. It's not about our play, but the guy there get the same error and they told that it's a kernel issue.then...
