[Xperia Play General] jamesbdx:
the rom seems to be very fast. No problems with the camera, I'm gonna try the touchpads and see how it goes

edit : there seems to be an error in your ics fix.zip. (Error 6. installaton aborted)
[Xperia Play General] elol:
YES,faster than xperia neo l...touchpads also working,no need to weird it...lol
[Xperia Play General] jamesbdx:
don't know if you saw my edit above but there's a problem with the zip you posted
[Xperia Play General] elol:
extract it,then push it like what on folder the zip...set permission...done...sory i lazy to edit the update-script...
[Xperia Play General] jamesbdx:
ok no worries
[Xperia Play General] elol:
if you already got it please tell me how its is working...
[Xperia Play General] jamesbdx:
for now everything is working really well. I'm restoring my apps right now so that's gonna take a little while but I'll let you know more later. First impressions are very, very good. All camera options work fine, the rom is really snappy, great stuff!!!

edit : one little gripe, after manually inserting the proper build.prop from your zip, my phone recognises itself as r800i but my computer still thinks it's a neo L when I plug it in. nothing major but i had to let you know
[Xperia Play General] vrkamath2020:
your zip has an error .. status 6...

Doesn't matter..

I downloaded this firmware .... had to convert it to ftf ... and flashed it .... feels smooth, thought there are some force closes in the start... but works great ... There is no particular difference between other firmwares and this on... Just a little smoother...

I haven't checked the touchpads yet... Will check it later..

So it is just neo l firmware with other kernel? Nothing special
[Xperia Play General] mehdi.moha:
a question

is this rom specially for xperia play ? i mean that is made by sony ????

can we update via sony-update-service ???

It seems to be fake. MT25i is Neo L.
[Xperia Play General] vokal1992:
its not fake, the xperia neo L has almost the same hardware as our Play! any firmware should work on our device, even the kernel from Neo L works on our Play! But we need to flash a Xperia Play Kernel so we can enjoy the Camera and the Touchpads!
[Xperia Play General] :
But it is not O F F I C I A L firmware - thread title suggest it.
[Xperia Play General] vokal1992:
First of all kid, I can read very well, no need for capital letters, and you said it was fake not unofficial, and it is, in fact, official by sony, if a ICS firmware will ever be release for our Play it will be very similar to this one.
[Xperia Play General] :
I don't believe in that Sony put in official firmware of Play parts from Neo L and does not rename it.
[Xperia Play General] vokal1992:
what I mean is, this firmware is official by sony, but not for our Play, but it does work on our device and the firmware for our Play is very similar to the Neo L Firmware, well except for the camera, the touchpad and of course the name, which is R800i.

Re: (NEW)offical ics sony xperia xplay fw 4.1.B.0.631_5-MARCH-2013

It's faster from markpython?
[Xperia Play General] vokal1992:
it seems much more smooth, also if anyone wants to avoid any FC's do this:

1 - Flash the .ftf

2 - Without turning on the phone, connect the phone in fastboot mode

3 - Flash the Stock ICS/GB kernel by wedgess

4 - Turn the phone On

5 - Enjoy your without any FC's :)
[Xperia Play General] :
So, it is better to flash kernel after flashing firmware?
[Xperia Play General] vokal1992:
yes, and before the first boot
[Xperia Play General] :
I want to try it, but download speed from this site is terrible.
[Xperia Play General] Slothboy:
Is this rooted?

Or does LuPuS' kernel root it?

Any need for updated Adreno drivers?
[Xperia Play General] MegaRacingHD:

[Xperia Play General] Jay Ros:
Everything works well? Any bug so far?
[Xperia Play General] jamesbdx:
Frankly the Rom works really well. Everything is fluid, and to me this is by far the best Ics solution for the play. much less buggy than any other ICS Rom.
[Xperia Play General] funnies7:
I Want to try this rom but when I select the ftf file in flashtool it shows: (file name).ftf selected.

i see at youtube

when slide phone it no entry game mode
[Xperia Play General] Jay Ros:
Why do you need the game launcher?

Ok everybody. This is the official 4.1.B.0.631 firmware for the Xperia Neo L. It works on the Xperia Play because both phones are pretty similar but you got to use an Xperia Play ICS kernel.

I installed the firmware and the kernel from the first post, also the JB adreno drivers and everything works pretty smooth. This firmware is smoother than any ICS ROM I've tried. I would say so smooth as GB. Everything I used seems to work, xLoud (better than in GB), autobrightness, camera, wifi, etc.

I tried the firmware without OC and without any script. Totally stock and clean (just add the adreno drivers). NFS Most Wanted runs without any lag. Alien vs Predator runs fine in low quality, in mid the game closes.

Touchpad are not working and circle button is working as the back button (the two same problems that every ICS rom we have tried has). I think the are fix for both problems in the developers section of the forum, I don't remember.
[Xperia Play General] Lefteris Fragiadakis (Frago):
this firm its not root,how we will root it?
[Xperia Play General] Jay Ros:
The kernel that you need to install (Lupus ICS) is rooted.

[Xperia Play General] Bakisha:
I have tried it for a short time with lupus ics-gb 480p kernel and i must say it very nice rom.

It's fast and stable. Data partition is 630MB, cashe 8MB and system 310MB with 45MB free. Faceunlock didn't work, but i noticed there is no pitpatt folder. I edited build,prop a litlle more and manage to get D-pad working, but couldn't get touchpad to work.

Camera is working fine, not inverted.

It's rooted (Super-su is in system/app folder, probably because of kernel) but there is no busybox nstalled (can be installed).

Real Football 2012 and FPSE is working nice. D-pad worked in both, touchpad is liked stucked in up-right position in RF2012, and it's just not working in FPSE.

When i connect it to PC, it see it as Xperia Neo L.

I had a problem when installing fix (recovery give error 6 message, but was able to repack it another zip wich had manifest.inf. Maybe it was update-script typpo error, i am not sure.

In general, nice and fast rom.

Thanks for sharing this ROM

Re: (NEW)offical ics sony xperia xplay fw 4.1.B.0.631_5-MARCH-2013

How about screen shots?
[Xperia Play General] Slothboy:
Is this faster WITH the newest Adreno Drivers or without?
[Xperia Play General] Jay Ros:
The fix with the error 6 message is exactly that, the build.prop mod to make some things work. You can install everything in the fix manually with Root Explorer. And it's not a ROM, is a firmware.

Mine worked perfect with Lupus ICS/GB kernel

Is not a modded ROM. Is the official Neo L firmware by Sony. Looks exactly the same that any Sony ICS firmware for Xperia S and Neo.

I tried NFS Most Wanted and Alien vs Predator without Adreno and with Adreno. Both games worked better with the adreno drivers.
[Xperia Play General] Slothboy:
I'm debating on flashing this, could somebody make a half decent video and upload it to YouTube running on the Play? The one in OP is okay, but the quality is quite terrible.

No ics can compete with nxt LE 1.3 with adreno booster v2. GB can compete with JB but not with ICS, trust me. I'm not talking about stock Rom from the firmware as they are mostly a crap.
[Xperia Play General] Bakisha:

[Xperia Play General] jamesbdx:
I really like this rom, if someone could edit the build.prop correctly it would be perfect. I've tried fiddling around with it but every time I've tried, I've only managed to break something...
[Xperia Play General] Jay Ros:
All you need to remember that this is not a ROM, is a firmware untouched. No scripts, no themes, no mods. That why actually everything works (except for the touchpads and circle button).

OK since I know from experience that stock ICS does not give us everything working I.e calls, text , data its either one or nothing does the phone apk force close when making and recieving calls? Data work all that good jazz off hand or do we have to edit everything, port it and hope to everything working?

I don't know why. I'll test this firmware some but with original build.prop to see what is working and what is not without editing it (so i know what can be broken :) )

If you still don't have data (and no wifi to download apn settings), download file in attachment, unrar it, push it /system/etc and set permissions (rw-r-r), go to apn settings and choose "restore defaults". It should work.

the fix flashable zip will work also for the 4.1.B.0.587 for Neo L or on the 4.1.B.1.13 for Neo L?
[Xperia Play General] Bakisha:
With original build.prop i can say that everything but touchpad and psx buttons work. X work as dpad center, and O as back.

I noticed there is no "xperia" in settings. Once i accidently flashed neo's kernel and it was there (but partitions were backed to stocked).
[Xperia Play General] ravid1323:

[Xperia Play General] Bakisha:

It's true. Flashed firmware ( unticked kernel), turned on in fastboot, flashed lupus ics-gb 480p kernel. Cashe partition is 1MB, and there is no vendor partition. You can thank Mr. Lupus for that :D
[Xperia Play General] ravid1323:

Or you can try other ICS ROMS. I experimented a little and manage to get other ROMs with 600MB data partition. Take updater-script and build.prop form Krisdee's ROM, and replace it in ROM you want to install. It worked for me in ICS Express ROM and Markphyton ICS ROM.

xLoud was broken, but i guess it's build.prop related...
