I do hope for the best of this project. My suggestions are for the minimum spec it can run PSP games smoothly on PPSSPP. Has its own Game Keyboard, but still affordable
[Xperia Play General] korrectmethod:
Unless he obtains the rights to use the hardware and goes through all the other legal issues, I dont see this available for sale. Maybe donate 'x amount' and receive a free phone but still, the undertaking of this project is likely the most ambitious on all of xda. I wish him luck but I won't be holding my breath.
[Xperia Play General] Various For:
I'm still breathing, bit I love to dream too! ;)
[Xperia Play General] ck-_-123:
I really like Thea idea of this. :)

I think the specs shouldn't be too

powerful(snapdragon 800 etc ).

They minimum I'd like to see is dual core clocked at 1.5hgz

I don't know why but I prefer dual then quad core and gpu of

Snapdragon 300.

But I don't really know alot on develoing phones but I would love

get my hands on xperia play 2 even if it had a dear price
[Xperia Play General] psxpetey:
I'd buy it

13mp camera 1080p

vita analogs

Nice clicky buttons like the old play maybe two separate pads that slide out to the side?

Exmor r

Bravia

1.7Ghz

Kickass snapdragon

2gb ram

To some up make it a ridiculously kickass phone.

You could always ask Ben heck if he would give it a go hes already made some pretty awsome things haha
[Xperia Play General] Flaîm:
is there actually an android version of the bladepad? cuz it is exactly what i had in mind 1 or 2 years ago when i saw the play the very first time and immediately knew the pad had to be portable over to another device as the hardware evolves faster than a successor would be created.
[Xperia Play General] abdel12345:
Not yet there should be one by the end of the year though but the problem is there's so many android devices it would be hard to support so they're probably only going to support certain popular phones or else theyll make a general one for certain sizes that clips on the back

Questions for everyone.

Just for fun lets have hear some opinions on xperia play 2. :)

Q#1

What are your 3 must haves for an xperia play 2?

Mine are #1 Physical analog sticks. I don't care if they are psp nubs, ps vita type analog, or real playstation analog sticks.

#2 Awesome sound quality (loud and clear) xperia play did this great and I hope they continue with this.

#3 An amazing screen I'm talking about HD to the extreme with the quality of games being so high now we need something to back that up.

Q#2

What design would you like Clamshell, slider, or candybar.

I would prefer a clamshell design with 2 screens one on the inside and one on the outside. This to me would be the best way to incorporate the analog sticks and massive speakers. also it would cool if it paused what you were doing on your first screen so when you were done gaming you can go back to what you were doing as soon as you close it. I like the xperia for the fact that you can hide the controls and hopefully the xperia play 2 will also have this business on the outside gaming on the inside.

Q#3

lastly, this is random but what color/material would you like?

If it was a color option it would be red all the way.

But if there was an metal one like the htc one that would be so awesome
[Xperia Play General] mehdi.moha:
#1 :

really really high end hardware . ( even preorder hardware for xperia play 2 )

as you explained before , HD display like xperia z , hardware analog like PSvita , and awesome sound quality

#2:

its looooon time that i'm waiting for xperia play 2 . i really don't care about design . i just need a high-end gaming phone + call ( no need tablet ) . every design is welcome here :)

#3:

good question , i like dark blue like ps3 theme. ( or somethings like xperia play 4G )

now my question :

can we cross our finger or you just kidding us ;) ?

IMHO, making XP 2 is race against technology. No matter how good you make it, it will be outdated, or at lest outshined by other models from other manufacturers (Sony, Samsung etc) in a year, and without marketing, even less.

On the other hand, making a controller that looks like XP gamepad, that can be attached instead of back cover of any (4+ inch) phone will target much more variaty of phones today, tommorow or any time.

You just need maybe licence for back cover design patent.

If it slidable like XP, even better.

Maybe with bluetuth connection, own battery, with generic drivers that can work on every android version...
[Xperia Play General] Monskiller:
That could attract some attention. Tho it still needs a lot to it. A good electronical architecture: that's compact, slim and most of all, working.

Also, if it does get developed and working, you need to mass produce it, which isn't cheap.

Kickstarter might be a good spot, but you also need some good minds and skill to even attempt.

There's already something like that cakes bladeslinger for iphone and is coming to android by the end of the year. One it comes out im getting rid of my play and buying a newer phone (hopefully if i can afford it) because the will be no point in the play anymore though it was great while it lasted

Sent from my Xperia Play (r800x)
[Xperia Play General] Monskiller:
Problem tho. The one made for the iPhone isn't so hard, design wise.

There are only 2 of iPhones that have pretty similar designs, just different sizes.

As for Android... well you know yourself how many Android phones there are, all different between each other in design and sizes.

So for it to be compatible with all Androids it'll either be external or if clipped on for a selected amount of devices.

Sent from my LG-P880
[Xperia Play General] abdel12345:
Yeah but maybe they'll make one for 4inch phones one for 5 inch and one for 4.5 that will clip on and be compatible with most

Sent from my Xperia Play (r800x)
[Xperia Play General] Monskiller:
Have you even seen the designs? It's not exactly clip-able unless it's shaped into a cover. And for that is the problem because of all the different exterior phone designs.
[Xperia Play General] abdel12345:
Oh yeah that makes sense lol and i actually haven't seen them i just saw another thread about it. Well in that case its probably only coming out for certain models like s4 htc one and Xperia z or some how they'll have it attach in a different way to work with multiple different phones but i can't think how. Anyways we are way off topic on this thread lets get back to it.

If this bizarre project succeeds... Awesomeness!

There are LOADS of clipon Bluetooth gamepads who needs another
[Xperia Play General] abdel12345:
Well i just took a look at the grandpads out the and the bladder and compared to the blade pad they all sucked. The only one that came close was icontrolpad but it cost 70 dollars. Blade pad had had amazing reviews and has a backlight in the pad. It has rechargeable battery and dual analog stocks and all other console buttons. It attached well to the phone like how the play slides out. When they make it for android they can maker a general clip that attached to any phone and they also have versions that change angle. The pad is a bit small but the rest looks awesome. Anyways this is all big let down because of the price. For iPhone its 100 dollars. The only way is buy it is if i could find a used one for less then half that price (maybe 40$) but for now a PlayStation 3 controller will work just fine for me lol :D but if an Xperia play 2 was made id definitely prefer that since id be more. .. Can't think of the word for it

Isn't this copyright infingment and patent infringement. I mean you can't make a phone of another without the permission of the author, in this case: Sony. You are going to use the technology of patented software and hardware, you can't just make like it was yours, do you even have permission?

After learning about the Bladepad from this thread, I'm thinking that would be the best way to go. Has anyone tried to hack one to work with Android yet?
[Xperia Play General] abdel12345:
It costs a 100$ I don't think anyone's bought one to mess around with:p there are cheaper versions of it for as lots as 30 dollars that already work with android but don't have the same quality build. I saw one for 60 dollars I think it was called icontrol out something like that. It works on both android and iphone and has dual analogs simular to that of the 3ds

Bladepad + android

Why waste time building our own gamepad rather than using bladepad and program a app that allow us to use it on android(a paid app if the developer wants)

How is it helpfull thisway we wouldn't have to buy another device just a gamepad and a app that allows that will be great
[Xperia Play General] Addicted2boobs:
I've contacted the guys that made Bladepad and they said the Android release was not done because they would need basically different Bladepads for each phone, because they wouldn't fit. They said that if they release an Android one, it will be only for the most relevant Android phones, so I would expect a release for the S3, S4, and the newer Sony and HTC ones.
[Xperia Play General] insane5125:
If you are dead set on geting a Bladepad you can look into geting a goophone but then why by a new device for just one accessory.

Phonejoy+Sliding gamepad

That's right why get an new device for an acessory but i was thinking of an idea using phonejoy gamepad but xperia play sliding style

Like xperia play you slide out the gamepad from down and it comes up and look like psp that would be portable + comfortable:good:

Don't you think so?

Phonejoy gamepad style with sliding gamepad it would be awesome!!!!:cool::cool:
[Xperia Play General] unreal:
I dont know, but i would definitely made own gamepad. The custom ones would in my opinion made the price go up. If you hook it to existing SDK, it can be an good choice!
[Xperia Play General] ozzmanj1:
Not to go off topic but at my local RadioShack and K-Mart they are clearancing out hte PS Vita permanently. Come on $ony make an Xperia PLAY 2!!!!
[Xperia Play General] CyberScopes:
Were going a bit offtopic here but the ps vita was a MASSIVE fail, i havent seen a single person with a ps vita but ive seen many people with psp's. Ive tried one and their are hardly any games on it, and most of it is crap. I hope sony make a xp2 by the end of this year.

[Xperia Play General] ozzmanj1:
Again sorry to go off topic, it appears that Sony is discontinuing the 3G/Wifi model. And the models I have seen clearanced from both stores were that particula model. Okay... now back to your regularly scheduled thread topic.... sorry to go off the course.
[Xperia Play General] insane5125:
Just once more off topic. Wasn't Sony just saying how much the PS Vita will be integrated into the PS4 such as playing your PS4 games while over a network on you PS Vita? Why are they taking them off shelves now?
[Xperia Play General] unreal:
No idea, lol.

PS Vita just wasnt that good, and Sony knows it, that's my opinion.
[Xperia Play General] ozzmanj1:
If you look up the vita. Thy have officially given sales totals. They always bundle the sales of the vita and PSP together. Plus Sony is only discontinuing the 3G/wifi version as in order to buy it you must start a data plan from At&t.

Okay seriously. We need to get back on topic. If someone Stetson to continue this vita I will make a new thread. Not annoyed just shouldn't have brought it up on this thread. This is my fault. Perhaps I will make a new thread.

[Xperia Play General] pWEN:
I think it would be pretty amazing if Sony Ericsson would do a proper Xperia Play with at-least current hardware, unlike the first one. The Play has so much potential!

I know quite a few people with Vitas and they love them. All of the indie devs I follow are porting games to the Vita, too.

Why don't use kickstarter to fund the project

Why don't use kickstarter to fund the project and once we started i will tell you some good micro electricians who can build it but we need to pay him as usual but once we started we can put donation and if anybody who pays like 400 will get and early prototype something like that and starting from 1 dollar to 3333 that would be great.

The best thing will be modifing blade pad and xperia z and make an full phone cover and some modification to blade something using flex cable from bladepad to xperia z and take out the top case so it will always be attacted and some good programmer who can modify iphone api to use it in android so what blade pad has developed to play games with we will also be using the same.:good::good::good::good::good:

the xplay is certainly like PSP Go.. is their any minimum possibility .. that

1. someone could hack the PSP GO and COnvert it into an Android device..

2. someone could MOD/HACK the PSP GO and add Phone functionality in it..

(THIS IS MY CRAZY IDEAS,AM SORRY if someone thinks I am Crazyyyyyy).. lolz.. I really don't know the possibilities of this..but we would not need to design the whole device again.

and the flipcover by samsung of course

and if you're really serious about it then why don't you contact some product designers make prototypes and launch a project at KICKSTARTER =)
[Xperia Play General] BensJammin:
How specific is the patent?

Surely they cant have a patent against sliding keyboards as many other manufacturers produce phones that slide out. I have an LG GW620 that slides just like the XP.

My idea would be (this may be a little hard to explain without pics).....

Make the XP 2 with a longer and skinnier screen (widescreen format) and whereas the keyboard slides down on the play, on the XP 2 have it split vertically down the middle then slide out slightly each side and then rotate (Koenigsegg suicide door style) to form 2 handles, ala PS3 controller shape. You could still have a back cover so it feels comfortable .

Maybe something like this?....

So, I'm having problems with battery usage, I believe.

Recently I have noticed a 12% drainage overnight, with everything off (3G and wifi, only cellular line on), so I installed GSam Battery Monitor and run a test.

I turned again everything off (3G, wifi, sync, bluetooth, gps), only 2G cellular line was on.

I charged phone at 100%, and to be sure I kept the charging cable for another 2 hours before unplugging.

This morning, after exactly 6 hours, I lost 10%.

This 10% has been used in the following way:

- telephone 0%

- display 8%

- cellular ljne 60%

- wifi 0%

- wakelocks 4%

- bluetooth 0%

- applications 24%

- other 4%

The apps' 24% (of the 10% battery usage) has been used in the following way

- maps 12%

- kernel 7%

- GSam Batt Mon 4%

- all others well below 0.5%

Not sure if this is a normal drainage.

What I don't understand is why maps shows such a high %. If I go in details for maps I can see the following:

- cpu use 37s

- wakelock duration 11m

- wakelock number 2400

- standby interruptions 488

- magnetic shield 7m

- Wakelock details: LocationReceiverService and others

- Involved processes: *wakelock* com.google.android.maps:LocationFriendService

Is this a normal drainage?

And why is maps working so hard if 3G is off? Also what the hell is this LocationFriendService and how can I stop it?

Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] cnoevl21:
Def not normal. That location service thing may be an app that is constantly trying to find ur location.

Try to find the app 'better battery stats' it will help u see what is causing all the wakelocks.

Do u have the Facebook app? Do u have 4g turned on or off? Gps on or off? From my experience turning data off at nite doesn't really help cuz some apps will constantly try to connect which will drain ur battery more. U want to be on wifi as much as possible as 3g and even more so 4g suck up more juice than wifi (as long as u have a good connection and it's not constantly tryin to search for signal)

There was actually and in depth post on xda a few months ago abt how to get better battery usage. I can't remember where it was, but try to find that.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] thegios:
I am using a similar app and as i wrote the wakelocks caused by the process LocationFriendService comes from google maps.

I do have facebook but location is off.

In any case overnight the phone has all off: 3g, sync, wifi, bluetooth, but yes you are riht, I believe maps keeps on trying.

yes at home I am always on wifi.

My real problem now is how to have the process LocationFriendService stop running in the background
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Zepius:
go into your maps settings and turn off location sharing.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Coolgoly:
This is not enough.To prevent maps autostarts install gemini app manager (requires root) and in maps app turn off all the flags except "on package removed" and

"signed_in_out" and "updated".

This will save your battery and manual start still works.
