Very light and still smooth as always. Would you consider adding Xperia Reboot Options by Doom & free version of XDA app? I know you are going for less apps but I think users will benefit from both. Just a thought but of course you have the last say on it.

If people want those applications, then they can install it themselves instead of having it shoved down the throat to all (even those who don't want it!).

It was merely a suggestion mate...I wasn't asking for Kx to install half the apps in the market.
If this rom gets any interest I'll offer stuff like that as add-on modules, as well as things like timescape, etc.
Are you being serious about the 3d camera
Sent from my X10i using XDA App
Already loved your 2.1 kxhawkins ROMs, surely try out that one. Thanks!
live wallpaper apk removed why
"3D Screen and 3D Camera"
ARE YOU SERIOUS?
But really, I loved your 2.1 ROM, keep up the good work with this one. Your efforts are greatly appreciated!

so basically this rom uses gdx as framework so it will be as fast as gdx? how about battery life? and about the installation, i will restore the zip file? correct?
No. The rom will be fast is because of lib files.
Framework is just not all changed to honeycomb icons yet, it won't cause the rom smooth.
It doesn't drain battery fast. I can normally use it without charging for about two days.
how about the installation? will i just restore the zip file? nothing more?
Copy it to /sdcard/xrecovery/backup/
Then select restore in xrecovery, do full wipe, and reboot.
I found one problem... Root explorer and titanium backup are pre-installed in a language I can't read and the system app remover do not work!
Sorry, forgot that.I will install root expired for English...
Sorry, forgot that.I will install root explorer for English...

You better remove paid apps from your rom. The rules of the forum says to not use warez or such a thing on your rom
i love you
If you want more Honeycombization you could add Honeycomb, or HC-like launcher/music player etc..

Its just new audio software that supposedly sounds better than standard. I didnt check it yet.
hey chap, I know its only something small but could you add the other shutdown menu where we get the option to restart in recovery or bootloader?. Sorry bout being awkward, I just find that well handy.
camera fc......not solved?
Thanks for this!
One issue i found was that whenever i start eithernet(browser) it suddently shuts down.
the music player sounds like stutter.. i dont know why
I find this rom very fluid!
I get 2150 on standard quadrant
but I see bench results as good as a Nexus S
the dualcore is really supported?
Beats audio really works in this ROM but seems to stutter as metioned by "adrian".

- Kernel - intellidemand with dbus_input ramping (boost CPU on touch events like project butter)
- Kernel - custom partitions, cache @ 8mb (since it's unused by MIUI ICS) and userdata @ 684MB(binary units) / 718mb(decimal units)

I am not sure, but I would like to. Is there a patch or way to get ICS (not CM9) on R800x? Like, can you get the ICS Beta on the R800x working? If so, please link me to the information!
thanks man!!
this is going to be my daily driver too.
problem though, kernel 720 shows as blocked by mediafire.
flashing 480 for now! :cyclops:
Nice!
So... I just want to make a question: the gapps already come in the ROM, or I need to flash your mini gapps?

About the 720p kernel... Probably is blocked for the name... if you put something like 720p, then the auto filter can get it thinking it's a movie or something

Nope. Doom did make an ICS kernel for CDMA devices, but with the ICS beta, CDMA users weren't able to get a data connection.

Yes, MIUI has gapps already Flashing gapps would actually destroy the ROM since MIUI uses their own special modified ones to mesh with the framework. Also, my mini gapps is for JB/CM10 - this is ICS

Yeah I just did a search Bummer.
Well this ROM was easy to make and will be very easy to update, so I will continue to work on CM10 version. Still, CM10 MIUI is much slower though, and from what I know CDMA isn't working on CM10 yet Sad that pax is retired.
EDIT: If I get really bored, I could try getting CM9 CDMA RIL drivers working on it. But don't get your hopes up, that is something very very far fetched.

All I've got on my R800x is some hodgepodge of AOKP with an FXP CM9 kernel.

Not really cm9 is working fine if I flash the conversion script from atarii+ keiranftw here's a mirror I made. someone posted this to fix cdma on markpython's rom but IMO it just seems like a partial fix as you either have internet and no sms or vice versa. I tried sending a text to myself and it wouldn't send until a reboot. I was going to try and modify the semcphone.apk and include cdma smali I found in an older rom from sony made to work with cdma from here. But that may be too old to be using for a fix, that and smali is really f**king annoying.

You are right, I logged-out of MF and it says blocked. Asses. I renamed the file as per farenheith's suggestion, it seems to work now. Link updated. Yes, strange that 480p is not blocked... guess they only want to block high-quality movie pirates

Interesting, thanks for the info. From what I know though with MIUI, modifying the phone app is not required - only replacing the RIL libs and RIL smali files in telephony framework. But that might only have been because I/they were working on Galaxy Nexus MIUI port at the time, which has both GSM and CDMA versions (the Phone.apk might have been ambiguous).
See my last reply in Turbo MIUI thread. I'll research all of this.

Completely froze? Did it reboot or did you have to pull battery?
Do you have a license for Chainfire 3D? Maybe try reduce texture resolution. I also read that there is apparently a configuration file you can edit, maybe in /data/data/com.rockstar.gta3 (or whatever) to lower detail.
EDIT: Screw it, I'll just buy GTA3. Lol.
Don't do that xD
It's a know problem . GTA is crap on ICS.
Also, I have a big problem to deal with. I need a token bank app, that is "unbackupable". The only method I found is restoring the full data partition... I did a minimal data to try to port between ROMs, but I can't restore this data on this one .
I just don't know what this app is checking
Edit: and yes, completely frozen. I pulled out the battery xD
Yea aokp is the same as cm9 performance wise. I like the power saver turning off my data for me, didn't think it would work but I haven't had issues with it yet. I hope the framework doesn't fight cdma I like the through themeing and xloud. Espiscally xloud as it seems I either have to pick a rom with working data or xloud.

INFO
First of all excuse me for imperfect English, as it is not my native language.
And let me introduce myself - I am the developer of this rom and I will also answer your questions when I have time.
My name is Andrew. I am 16 years old and I'm in grade 11. I am learning a lot of time, something to go to university this year. Every week I have three tutors and my parents pay $ 15 for each session, which is $ 180 a month. I'm not from a very rich family and my parents are not easy to pay that much money.
I want to be a programmer and I work hard to achieve my dreams.
I have developed a firmware into which focuses on performance and smooth operation. And I think I got it. Firmware will get maximum light and fast, you can test it now!
Soon, I will make the firmware for the entire line xperia 2011. I would also like to purchase a 2012 model year, to continue to develop the firmware.
I spent a lot of time creating this firmware and if you liked it, then please do donate. I would be pleased to receive a modest stipend for their job well done.

That's not AOSP. that's a mod to make those apps looks like AOSP. AOSP means your ROM is compiled from open source archive.

AdrenoBooster Ready (Customised)
Init.d Support
CWM Ready

Nothing! Again, as far as i know...
Let me know if something doesn't seem to work as desired!
Only known issues are that on first boot the Keyboard doesn't work. This is why the system must be rebooted after first boot for this to work correctly.
Also - The camera app can sometimes not connect to the camera. This is because the SystemUI (Notification Bar) has taken control of it for use with the 'Flashlight' function. If you load the Camera a few times it will eventually work.

Installation Instructions
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Unlocked Bootloaders
Perform a Nandroid backup of your current ROM
Install firmware 4.0.2.A.0.58 Enhanced from the downloads section below. (Only required if you don't already have it installed - This is used to get the right baseband and 420mb DATA partition.)
Install DoomLord's V14 DoomKernel (See download section below) - the LuPuS GB Kernel is also compatible, and in some cases better than the DoomKernel.
Perform factory reset (wipe Data/Cache) - If you had a GB ROM installed previous, you MIGHT not have to do this. However if the ROM isn't working right after install, it is recommended you perform a reinstall & factory reset.
Format System (Mounts & Storage in ClockWorkMod)
Flash ROM from the downloads section below
Install DoomKernel's V14 Wifi Modules (Link in downloads section)
After initial boot, perform an additional reboot to ensure everything is settled
Locked Bootloaders

2.3.4 or 2.3.7??
Re: [ROM][GB] AuroraPlay v0.1 [ICS Themed/Low RAM Usage]
From what I can tell 2.3.7

nice to see development is still alive here..thanks for your work,seems nice rom.:good:

Sorry, forgot to mention - It's 2.3.7
It's original base is the NXT LE ROM which is also 2.3.7
This was chosen as Gingerbread is still the best ROM in terms of performance when it comes to gaming.
With an OC of 1.6Ghz I am able to run Vice City on almost full graphics with only a slight bit of slowdown in specific places.
FPSE runs perfectly, not tested many games using the OpenGL plugin however Klona and one or two others do work at 55 - 60fps. Using the normal plugin however, all games run fully at 60fps.
Antutu benchmark is 6130 @ 1.6Ghz. (Haven't tested this in a while)
Unfortunately ICS and JB scores are usually higher, specifically in the graphics department. It's a shame that GB hasn't received an update recently in terms of graphics libs. - I tried quite a few different ones to get more performance, inclusive of those from other phones... Most of them either slowed it right down or simply stopped it from booting! I'll keep looking though...

that s why i moved from GB to ICS or JB..you see big difference in graphics..watching videos in hi resolution its almost perfect..most of it with 2000/2500 kb in video..smooth and clean..and the roms are faster with many tweaks..anyway good work man.:good:
The problem is however, that the tweaks and improvements only look good on paper in terms of gaming...
For some reason, even if ICS and JB do score higher, GB ends up performing better in the real world.
...If only we could port the drivers.... But that's just not possible
Oh wow! Nice. Going to download and install when I get home from work!

Also would you recommend using DoomKernel instead of Lupus? I notice you've linked Doom's one, but would there be any difference at all?

It's a GB ROM, so you're gonna need a GB Kernel.
As far as i knew, Lupus doesn't have a GB one does he?
If there is one though, I can't imagine there would be any problems with using it... By all means give it a shot and let us know how it goes.
I chose DoomKernel as he has set a GPU Overclock as part of the Kernel towards the end of its development... So to make up for the old drivers, it tends to fill the gap between ICS and GB in terms of Graphics.

1. There is a Lupus kernel for GB (Lupus-GB V6)
2. So you're using DoomKernel v13? v14 has disabled GPU Overclock.
Anyway I am not asking a question I'm answering an answer.

Hmm... I should've looked into that a bit more then... Thanks for clearing that up!
I'll try out different Kernels at some point and find out which is best.
I was considering upping the clock to 1.3Ghz in a v0.2 (It is currently clocked by default to 1.2Ghz) But that could cause problems for some users, especially if I start recommending the use of DoomKernel v13 instead of v14... That is, assuming the GPU clock wasn't removed for stability issues or something.
Something to add to my to-do list.
Edit: Looks like 1.3Ghz is where the default voltages within the DoomKernel increase to ensure stability... 1.2Ghz stays at the default voltage of 1200mv whereas at 1.3Ghz this increases to 1250mv. It wouldn't be fair to have to have voltages set by default so I think I'll give the clock increase a miss. - It's not like users can't easily set their own clock speeds anyway.
I've had installed for a few hours now, and i've been playing around with it. After the first boot up, the keyboard didn't want to come up, but after second boot, everything was peachy. Everything that needs to work, works just great. Lots of space, so that's a win. Very fast too. Haven't overclocked it yet, but the settings you have as default run everything just great.
All in all so far, you've done a great job buddy. I've installed DoomKernal V.14. I will test with Lupus later on tonight. Keep up the great work bro. This is in my opinion the best GB rom i've used so far.

Thanks, I really appreciate it!
I experienced the keyboard issue too, the first time I installed the ROM. So I added the 'Reboot' bit to the installation instructions in case it was an ongoing issue.
That being said, with my current v0.2 build, it appears to be working right off the bat. However I've no idea as to how/why as I haven't done anything specific to the keyboard to make it do so!
I'll hopefully be releasing the v0.2 update before the end of the week - This will be a full ZIP instead of a patch, however you'll be able to simply flash it on top of v0.1 without having to format/factory reset.
OH sweet! Already an update coming. Looking forward to it, though really, I don't know what else you can really tweak? It's running really damn good as is right now. The only thing I do miss about the ICS ROMS from Gingerbread is the notification panel settings when you do the swipe down. The swipe down panel from Xpress ROM is just sweet. I'm guessing though that the GingerBread framework wouldn't be able to do that. It's sad that ICS doesn't really want to play well with the Xplay. But as long as we got guys like you that bring awesome GB ROMS this little device isn't going to die off any time soon.
Edit: Just a quick question. I want to put this on my other Xperia Play that has a locked bootloader? Is this possible? Or is this for only unlocked bootloaders? And yes... I have two plays, with a 3rd on it's way... >_> I really like this device, even if I use my S3 as my daily driver. >__<

You can add similar Notification panels to the one you're suggesting in GingerBread, but the problem is their excessive RAM usage... I'll see what I can find though, and if something does crop up that is good as doesn't take up too much RAM I'll replace it.
In regards to updates, there's quite a few things that can still be done to get things a little faster... I'm currently looking into the Linaro toolchain, I had originally thought it was ICS and JB only but it looks like the Linaro optimisations can be applied to GB ROMs as well. This is something that would take a while to sort out though, so I wouldn't expect it anytime soon. Especially not in the v0.2.
I've emailed Quallcomm/looked into trying to get updated versions of the GB libs for the Adreno 205... As the ICS/JB ones are much more optimised than the ones we have. Doubt I'll get anywhere with that though, but there's no harm in trying.
Other than that I intend to add a few more standard apps to /System such as the Gmail app and so on so save more space for /Data, and also the Play Launcher.
My task for this evening however is to compare the performance between the V14/V13 and LuPuS kernels, to see which is best on the ROM. At the end of the day it will all come down to personal preference, however if Quallcomm decide to do nothing in regards to the GB libs then I guess I'll go for the V13 Kernel, as it'll be the last resort for getting improved graphics performance from the Play.
Edit: In regards to the Locked Bootloader... I've only got the one Play which is unlocked - so I am unable to test. As far as I know though, it should work on a Locked Bootloader - I can't see why not!
Re: [ROM][GB] AuroraPlay v0.1 [ICS Themed/Low RAM Usage]
Can I just say, wedgess' LuPuS kernel is so much better than DooMLoRD's in my opinion, it has google's new snappy compression

I wouldnt mind emailing Qualcomm and inquiring about this as well. I mean the Adreno 205 is 2 years olf (if not older) and I dont see a reason why they would at least be willing to release the sources for it......... because truthfully it would be one of the best news for our phone... updated graphics libs for your PLAYs.
What email address did you use? I am thinking what if we got as many Xperia PLAY users to email Qualcomm and request either updated libs or sources to let the devs look into it.
Edit - Made a thread in General section.... would so love to see this happen... I gave all credit to the idea to you Spizzy01, your idea, your credit. Hope you dont mind I made a thread - request for users to band together and assist in getting Qualcomms attention... hopefully.

My initial email to them was simply done using the 'Contact Us' at the bottom of their development site.
Since then I've opened a topic on their Graphics forums too, but I'm yet to get a reply. See here
And nope, that's no problem at all. I agree that we should try any available method in order to get an update. I guess we can only wait and see. For now, I'm going to see if I can try some different combinations of new/old drivers to see if it makes a positive impact on performance.

Just a tip, I have looked into this before, and I dont remember which phone it was that was on GB but it got updated GPU libs... and it was running the Adreno 205 processor. I'll see if I can find the thread for it here on XDA and post it below.
