I realize this should probably go to the General section but sometimes I feel this section gets more notice.

I made a thread at the GameLoft forums, informing them of the bug where if you open the controller before playing the game there are little micro lags. If you open it after the game has loaded then its better but still not as good.

I recently ran a FPS (frames per second) test and saw around 43-45fps with the gamepad closed, when I opened it to play using the touchpads....26-28fps. Still playable but definately not as smooth and fluid.

I would like as many people as possible to post a reply on this thread at GL asking them to update the game to fix this bug, there is no reason for this to go unresolved and yes its still playable but we should be allowed to play it at the best settings while still retaining the gamepad usage.

Thanks for putting this up! I feel the same way. It could be such a beautiful game to play if only there wasn't that glitch! I know this is something that can be fixed and hope they address it in the next update. Please fix this GL! Thanks!

Oh and I tested a full effect modded version and found that with whilst overclocked (1612MHz) the game runs as smooth as butter with my d-pad closed. But when I opened it... Shame there isn't an effects level parameter in the games settings (wishful thinking I know, haha!).
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] narflynn619:
Incredibly as I have said before that version 1.0.0 from the WapShop never had micro lags, well it actually did LATELY, not being solved by closing the gamepad but by turning on the Wi-Fi and it becomes very fluid... even more fluid than NOVA 2.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] cyraxx84:
Only time i noticed that lag was on multiplayer if you're playing online. There it was really laggy with opened gamepad and with closed it was nearly perfect. But on single campaign (if remember right) everything was good.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] sufy1000:
C'mon guys we need a fix for this game! It's unplayable at the moment. I didn't pay £5 for s**t!
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] ozzmanj1:
Thank you. I am shocked at how little interest there appears to be in at least asking GL to look into a fix for this. At present my thread at GL has been turned into a thread about V6 supercharger.

Come on people I know GL has a sucky track record at fixing bugs but if we at least voiw our frustrated in this matter and VOICE THIS in the above thread maybe they will do something about it. I'm myself and a couple others are the only ones b!itching on the thread I made then its all for nothing

I am kindly asking/requesting that members of this forum wagon have so voiced their frustrations in other regards please please rise up the occasion again and make our voices/words recognized by GameLoft that they look into fixing this game for our phone. I know this phone is capable of playing this game. I myself get 47-48fps with gamepad closed. But soon as I open the gamepad in the game to play it drops to 26-28. This is clearly a bug in the game.

Pease xperia play users please rise up and create a b!itch storm to GL in the link I posted in post 1. As we all know the squeaky wheel gets the grease
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] poo-tang:
We (our site) are interested and have contacted them but with no avail. :(

But I think you have answered your own question why others are not here below.

They are a big no caring money making machine, which is sad as if they spent more time to make games right they would have some of the best titles ever made on mobiles. As our devices such small % of their android customer base I very much doubt we be at the top of the list. For example Nova3 has been broke for months in a much more serious way (no hardware button controls) and still no closer at a fix.

I think due to this most people here will be thinking this is like talking to a brick wall, getting gameloft to fix things just does not ever happen. :( its a shame as really like this game.

We contacted them showing our video and the comments we had =

[YOUTUBE]7C7sTnBgY_Y[/YOUTUBE]

PS, @all with gamelofts track record I would recommend everyone make a back up of this first 1.0.1 version if ever does get updated as they usually make things worse in updates then make it better :(
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] ozzmanj1:
Si I grabbed my unlocked att play and opened the gamepad and started mc4 just now and it ran buttery smooth @ 48fps. But doing the same on my Verizon model it takes the hit. Any ideas why this is the case? Good thing my contract with VZ is almost up and I can switch to the unlocked att model. Also just for the heck of it I bought a new moga controller to mess with for $25
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] ILikeTheWayYouMove2:
When I emailed them about this issue they where pretty helpful and gave me the wapshop version which doesn't have the problem
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] ozzmanj1:
I installed my Wapshop version and the fps is better (instead of 26-29, its 26-32) But still though when I close the gamepad 43-49 fps.

Is it possible for someone to hack this game to figure out the issue and fix it? I know there are MC4 files out in the wild with max graphics modded and or other features.....

Edit: So I want to clarify, those who are saying to open the gamepad before even staring the game, or is it opening the gamepad after your game is loaded and you can play then open the gamepad? I do both and no change for me in frames per second
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] sdojoin:
I think fps dont matter much if the game ran smooth enough for u to play. Either in campaign or mp. Just saying.;)

I'm curious, how much ram/fps do u really need to run it smooth?? Coz on mine even with below 180mb free ram it ran perfectly. Especially in-game aim-assist feature. To me thats kinda important in this game.:D

So i'm kinda confuse on why does fps counts bothers u?? Mc4 is not that heavy compare to wild blood. Dont u think??

Regards,

Sdojoin
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] narflynn619:
As I have tested myself, Gameloft Wapshop version 1.0.0 seem to have a different case. Closing/opening the gamepad WON'T affect the game in any way (at least in my case), BUT WI-FI DOES.

The game runs much faster and smoother with Wi-Fi turned on and connected to an active network
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] ozzmanj1:
In campaign its playable, guess I just want this game to be as smooth as possible, however playing online with either PLAY store version or Wapshop is abysmal... terribly laggy. Its so glitchy I can barely get a kill.......

Guess I will be back on MC3 for my multiplayer fix, and speaking of prior MC games.. isnt there a version of MC2 with the swipe controls like in MC3? The version I have 3.2.8 (I think) and its virtual thumbsticks..... I want to say somewhere I read there was a version that was more like MC3/4... this true?
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] poo-tang:
New MC4 v1.0.2 version out now on google play. Hope it fixes the lag issue. Looks like need to redownload data 1.88gb so hope it's worth it. When finished will report back
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] vg_imsc:
Dont forget to take a backup. You remember what happened with Nova 3 right?

Hope I can leave office early today to check the update. I really dont understand why they have not provided a changelog
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] poo-tang:
Great news people!! Looks like they have sorted the lag out in v1.0.2. Have played just one multiplayer game but seams to be so much better and runs smooth. All the controls still work and we still have swipe to look (No rubish virtual pad added thankfully). So is 100% safe to update
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] ozzmanj1:
WOW!!! GL actually did something right! Just played a quick round online and big difference.. so smooth, same with campaign. Online was the worst though... until now. Thanks poo-tag....

[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] ozzmanj1:
OK, so after the last update I mentioned on this thread about how smooth it was against previous versions... well that was true but after a day or so it seemed to go back to the issues seen before, where you open the gamepad and bam there goes the framerate. I have not te4sted it yet but there was an update today... changelog only states Minor Bug Fixes, hopefully this gamepad issue is one of them.

[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] sonymakebullshit:
so,do they fix the gamepad issue yet,please?:)
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] TLRtheory:
I'll admit, I've been kinda ignoring MC4 since it's launch... it's not so much the lag that bothered me, just that I have a personal preference towards MC2

Just checked out MC4 again today, and HOLY HELL it got better. I purposely launched it with the gamepad closed to see if they'd resolved the previous issue, then opened it in the middle of the start-game tutorial. Not only are the controls incredibly functional, but the game runs like a DREAM now.

As always, I don't do overclocks, special kernels or any of that jazz... still rockin that no frills stock ROM :)
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] CyberScopes:
Have u tried playing without wifi?

And i also love MC2 better than all the other ones. MC3 got a bit fun but MC2 is just way better.

/==(CyberScopes)==\
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] ozzmanj1:
I came to the same conclusion. Nice and smooth. Started the game with gamepad opened and started with it closed then opened. Nice and smooth. I ran fpscounter. 42-45fps
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] CyberScopes:
With or without wifi?

I should have clarified. With and without. Just fine.

Hi everybody,

This is my first ROM. I don't own anything, I've just simple put the two things together and make this ROM for Locked Bootloaders. All the credits goes to xperiavish for making this lovely MIUI ROM for our Xperia U and atis112 for making this patch to make possible to transform ROMs for Unlocked Bootloaders to Locked Bootloaders.

atis112 didn't give permissions to use its work for that kind of works. I thought that he had given the perms. But I was wrong. He has given perms just for source based roms. So I removed the links. Moderators can delete the post. Sorry again everyone :(

[UPDATE] It's seem that atis changed his mind and he granted the perms. So here is the link : http://www.mediafire.com/?c06ryujf55qtx

Mirror : http://rapidgator.net/file/77293198/MIXIE_V2.0_XPERIAVISH_-_LockedBootloader.zip.html

If you like their work, buy them a beer =)) And don't forget to hit the Thanks button on their pages to show your support to the developers. :)

Use it with your own risk. I am not responsible for soft bricking your device. (You know you can always flash the stock ROM using flashtools ;) ) It worked for me and I am using it right now.

If you have any further questions like bugs or other stuffs, you should contact with the ROM developer. I've just make it to the LockedBootloaders.

Here is steps of flashing this ROM:

It is based on CM 9.1 FXP205 so b.54 is required for the modem driver.

(If you are already on CM based ROM for locked BL and you flashed CM9 Based ROM over stock b.54 ROM no need to do the first four steps. Just jump into step 5)

1- Flash Stock B.54 Rom

2- Since you are using a locked BL device, you're going to lose your root perms and CMW recovery.

3- Go ahead and root your phone.(There are possible methods on xda so search on the xda forums )

4- Install CWM recovery (There is also a guide for this on xda )

5- Put the ROM to the SDCard.

5- Reboot your phone.

6-When you see Sony Logo, start pressing volume down button(don't hold down volume down button, just keep tapping on it. )

7- Once you get into CWM Wipe Data and Wipe Cache and Wipe Dalvik Cache ( Advanced / Dalvik Cache )

8- Then choose install zip from sdcard

9- Flash ROM

10- After flashing the ROM reboot your phone. Wait for the boot and bam. It's ready

Thanks.

Yes, I did. I have talked both ROM owner and the patch owner.

I am going to update the OP. Check it out.

I don't know. As I said this is my first ROM and I only made it for the Locked Bootloaders. You need to talk this subject with xperavish the ROM owner.

Your welcome. And as he said, I want to know that this Rom worked for all LB devices too. Feedbacks are appreciated. Thanks.

Can u tell my steps to install.. ?

Is it based on c.10 or b.54 ?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] knight862:
Nope. Mediafire's max upload capacity is limited to 200mb. Download those two files and unrar them. You will get one flashable zip. Install it :D

can i use the brainsrom-fxp mod..?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] knight862:
Hey guys,

Sorry for the disappointment but atis112 didn't give permission to use his patch for that kind of conversion (my bad)(and I explained at OP) so I removed everything. If you want to make your own locked BL rom from unlocked BL, please follow atis112's guide on its page and make your own rom. Like atis112 said in his post it is easy to do that.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] knight862:
I didn't change or add anything to ROM and this ROM is not mine. If you read OP, I referred to the developers who build this Rom and Locked BL patch. You can see screens and changelog over there. Thanks.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] knight862:
No, you need to download brainsrom-fxp mod and then atis patch then you need to patch the brainsrom-fxp mod with the atis's files using his guide in order to make a Locked BL ROM. You need to modify brainsrom-fxp mod manually in order to make it right. You can't just simple flash over this Rom. You'll end up bricking your phone. Thanks.

I didn't encounter any random reboots. But after using for couple of days, data and wifi connections started to get weird. There are some connection drops after I turned on the wifi. And also there is a massive amount of Ram usages in the MIUI ROMs. I love MIUI Roms but because of that issue I can't use them.

HI

Just bought Gotab Lite 9 GBT9 and wondering if there are any roms or generic roms for this tablet as current software is horrendous and so slow.

Specs are

Allwinner A13 ARM Cortex A* CPU

Mail 400 GPU

512MB DDR3

9 inch TFT LCD with LED backlight screen

5pt Touch Screen

Is it possible to change software and tweak to use OTG and Bluetooth dongle, it has full support for 3G but cant get bluetooth dongle to work

Thanks in advance :)

After tinkering with it for a while, I got it to recognize it, and I flashed it. Problem solved right? well no. Odin gave its "pass!" notification, but it only took 3 seconds, and my device was stuck on the same bootloop that drove me to flash it in the first place. Now, no matter what I do, My computer will not recognize it. I obviously have drivers or it wouldnt of worked the first time. same cord, same computer, same version of odin and everything. I have no problem getting the device into download mode, and I have odin open, cord plugged into computer while I put it in download mode, then I plug in device. also run odin as ADMINISTRATOR. Factory reset also Did not fix my bootloop. no sd card inserted. device is US samsung galaxy player 3.6. computer is running Windows vista 64bit
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] iurnait:
boot into recovery and wipe data and cache
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] joshkidner:
Ive done that countless times and it makes absolutly no difference. do you think maybe i messed it up when i flashed it the first time (to where the computer wont recognize it?) i used the normalboot img to flash it with odin. when I got it to work the first time, the very second I plugged it in it started downloading drivers. also yesterday I reinstalled kies and all of the drivers.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] QuanticZero97:

Hi,I think you can change a computer and try it again.Sure that won't be a problem.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] joshkidner:
Like I have said, I have gotten it to work on this computer. I did try it on my dads computer (windows 7 ultimate, not sure if 32 or 64) and no luck. I have reinstalled kies twice now. order I do things? open odin (as administrator) with cord plugged into computer ONLY. then put device into download mode and plug it in. thank you all for helping, but it is starting to seem i will never get this thing fixed! someone give me a miracle? :)
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] DZonikg:
Dont know about 3.6 but with 5.0 you can only flash Zimage ..not boot.img
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] joshkidner:
one other side note, I can tell it is drawing power from the computer. (when i take the battery out it stays on until I unplug it)

and the file is normalboot.tar.md5 (not img) Im not positive what you are talking about. thanks for helping! any info at all could be something I am overlooking
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] Messypot:
I can give you some advice.

1.Can your device reboot to CWM? If so,you can wipe data.

2.Sure you have the USB Debugging turn on.

3.Sure that Your USB Data Line is intact and it is suitable for you device.

4.I think you'd better change a USB Date Line.......
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] krzee:
Once you get the computer to recognize the device, flash factoryfs from odin
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] joshkidner:
I already reset it multiple times (power and volume up > reset or whatever it is) cannot boot it (which is why I am flashing it) so I cannot put it in usb debugging mode. the cord is brand new and I have used it to flash the same device the first time. after the first flash it will not connect. I will still try other cords (that I will prob. have to borrow, I only have one) I already have the facrotyfs image, so thanks for reassuring krzee, because I wasnt sure.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] joshkidner:
Yeah I have the factory fs, now If i can get my computer to recognize the device! Will try other computers/cords whenever I can. again, It is not rooted, so no CWM. I can put it in normal recovery and wipe the data, which as I have said, I have already done 10ish times or so.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] QuanticZero97:
Did you try with kies?
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] joshkidner:
