[Xperia Play Android Development] Dany XP:
Hi everyone, I hope i'm not doing anything wrong with this thread, in that case please moderators just delete it.

From some time i was looking for a stock sony ics for our Xperia Play WITH NO MODIFICATIONS at all, like small apps, other SystemUI, new widgets, new launcher etc etc. i just wanted the same ICS other XPeria 2011 have but functional 100% for our Xperia Play, as it should be if Sony had eventually released ICS for us.

So since Xperia Neo is basically the same as Xperia Play (just the camera inverted and no gamepad) i took this http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2269700 as a base and then i make the following modifications /improvements.

1-

Re-orginized the rom and folders

2-

Debloated. In particular i delete the following apps

:

AAstock

McAfee Security

Messenger Microsoft

Office Suite

Wisepilot

Maps

Youtube

3-

Installed Adreno ICS driver for 2XX gpu

(I was surprised in found out that Sony DOESN'T INSTALL THOSE ADRENO DRIVERS IN

OFFICIAL FIRMWARES FOR XPERIAS 2011 ! )

4-

Fixed browser bug

(http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=40423492&postcount=118 Another incredible thing is that that bug is

present in official firmwares from sony based .631 and sometimes .567)

5-

Deodexed /framework

(Thank u Bakisha, sewer56lol and vokal1992 for help)

6-

Added a little FIle Manager

7-

Other little adjustments (thanks Krisdee)

...

What i have now is simply what Sony should give us a long time ago (funny: 25/5/2012 Sony canceled ICS and now almost precisely 1 year after (29/5/2013) i'm posting this rom), so this rom has no bugs. But also no boosts, no tweaks, etc etc

Again, i'm no developer (i just learn how te decompile/recompile, using Kitchen XDA and Apktool just a few days ago) and yes, anyone could have this result starting with neo rom, in a few minutes, but i'm posting this rom for 2 reasons:

A- Everybody seems to interestes in multi-featured roms, having Small Apps, System UI with goggles, Album, Walkman, etc etc and nobody

is doing something like this

B- I think people like me wich are kinda "noob" dont' have time for "built" a rom like this, so i guess for those guys this rom will be usefull.

Again, i'm no developer and i just did some modificiations to neo rom (wich by the way already some patches for Xperia Play) and i hope this post is not totally useless
