More info on this Qualcomm developer forum thread: https://developer.qualcomm.com/forum/qdevnet-forums/graphics-optimization-adreno/8081?page=3#comment-6691
Hopefully this can be integrated into ICS ROMs to make them silky smooth!
I have much hope for that to happen.
This is very good, I will implement these drivers into miuiv4

From what I've read so far, they don't seem to work properly from a straight drop in. I'm now giving it a try though.

I wish this topic is not get locked like the other one.. I started to port ICS to sgs2 but stuck at somewhere.. I took siyahkernel 2.0 and modded rc.init for ICS port.
Nothing useful for now.. You will get a black screen after flashing.. We need gpu driver to see something..
What is working
- Device boots
- ADB and other services working
- Logcat
- Buttons and Touchscreen
- Probably Setup Wizard is coming to screen
What is needed
- We still need a GPU driver.. With libGLES_android.so driver we can see a visible CRT off effect but that's all for now
Changelog
---04/11/20011---
- Kernel updated for new services
- updater-script updated
- build.prop updated

I would like to help but i have no programming skills at all.
I have probably misunderstood, but do you guys need files from a 7inch tab? (p1000)
I could probably get my hands on a 7inch if there is some goodies in that tab.
I have a 10.1 inch if that helps? i mean if there is some files i can extract from that one.

Qualcomm have finally released a full version of their Adreno 200/300 drivers.
This release contains the user-mode driver binaries for Qualcomm's Adreno 3xx and 2xx GPU on Google Android 4.2 Jelly Bean MR1. It has been tested with the CAF release A8064AAAAANLGD133402.1 and M8960AAAAANLGD230306.1. Supports any Adreno 2xx and 3xx GPU on Android 4.2 Jelly Bean MR1.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
These drivers are provided direct from Qualcomm's Adreno Development website found here: https://developer.qualcomm.com/mobi...phics-optimization-adreno/tools-and-resources
I unfortunately cannot test them as I do not have a JB ROM installed currently, can someone please test and let me know if they work.
Note: Don't forget to do a Nandroid backup first!
Download (Standard Package from Qualcomm)
See attached.
Download (Flashable ZIP)
Click Here
2XX Series Only - (Extra files removed from previous ZIP)
Testing
Confirmed NOT working on GB - Android boots but framerate is extremely low. (Tested just in case)
Seems to not be working on JB - CosmicDan may be able to explain as to why. (Also, see http://forum.xda-developers.com/report.php?p=35427866 - Thanks nickholtus)
ICS is currently Untested.
Looking good, I'll be sure to flash in something like Slimbean/Jellyzeus
what is the big difference? we get more speed or improvements in graphics?

Unknown.
The JB drivers released for the Adreno 2XX series last year were only 'Beta' drivers and came with the following disclaimer from Qualcomm:
This release contains an early sample of the user-mode driver binaries for Qualcomm's Adreno 2xx GPU on Google Android 4.1 Jelly Bean. It has been tested with the CAF release M8960AAAAANLGD105210.1 and supports any Adreno 2xx GPU on Android 4.1 Jelly Bean. This release is intended only for developers that work on Jelly Bean bring-up work. It is an early release sample which will be replaced by a new driver binary in the future.

Since then (Yesterday), they have released their full version of the drivers which have been tested on two versions of JB as explained above and worked perfectly.
I, nor anyone else yet, has done any testing with these drivers on JB. We don't even know if they work for us yet, so I cant really say what the benefits are.
As the OP states, these require testing.
well..just flashed on turbo ui 4 JB and get a bootloop..

They're official libs from Qualcomm, why would they not be tested?
The last driver update found here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1828902
Wasn't initially tested, until people tried it.
Without opening a thread, how else would I have pointed out to people that Qualcomm had released new libs? I can hardly PM everyone who owns a Play. I can test it myself but I'd rather not reflash a Kernel and a ROM, just to test something that I'm not going to use.
So instead, I've told people there's a new release. And created an update.zip for people to test the drivers themselves.

I must have missed this - Why would we be unable to update the Adreno libs for JB?
Looks like it doesn't work anyway... But for those who want to try it, I'll remove the extra files from the update.zip and repost.

Re: [MOD][JB] New Adreno 200/300 Series Libs from Qualcomm [March 2013]
Qualcomm added an apk in the appa folder and a few other things. I also removed the 3XX libs. Doubt it will make a difference but worth a shot I guess.
Either way, some devs may be able to make some use of the libs. They're official release and should work, so you would think that the reason they're not may be something to do with comparability with the JB ROMs?
Has anyone tried ICS?

They won't work on JB because we have kernel 2.6.x and we need hacked drivers for jellybean to work. If/when we get a proper 3.x kernel, these will work in jellybean.

AFAIK they are not going to update play anymore at all so there is no way to update/improve graphics, right? Also if you could explain me if our kernel will be unbreakable barrier in porting Ubuntu. Imho that's the reason but I'd appreciate some info from someone trusted and experienced like you

FXP and some others are slowly working on 3.4 (I think) kernel for Xperia 2011 devices. As soon as it gets USB working (J from FXP uses Mogami developer board with serial/JTAG interface) then I will try to help with development.
No idea about Ubuntu, doesn't interest me. I don't see the point on running a computer OS on a phone (apart from emulating DOS and Amiga for old school gaming).
By the way, I just found out that these are only for Jellybean 4.2. So even if we had kernel 3.x they probably won't work on JB 4.1.x anyway.

but having a 3xx kernel for Xperia Play, it would be easier to develop a rom 4.2 for the Xplay????
Hello fellow XDA Members, i recently stumbled across Official drivers that were secretly uploaded by Qualcomm without much news about it, i have not tested them, but hopefully they increase our beloved Xperia Play's Performance alot on ICS...
Ive also cooked another version which is modded by me and should provide a tiny little bit more performance!
Anyways, would love if anyone can test and provide screenies of some benchs before & after!
Thanks to conformation from lovely forum members, it is only intended to work on ICS, try it on other versions of android at your own risk
Instructions:
~ Download the zip from the Attachements
~ Reboot to CWM
~ Flash it
~ Reboot
~ Reboot again
~ Enjoy!

Going to venture these are for ICS+? Also, what been changed in the modded version?
Edit - will test on GB and see how it goes, of course making a backup first.

Just tested, no your phone will still work but just like all other Adreno GPU updates it makes the phone run super slow in everytthing from screen swipes to especially games.
Did someone try this on CM10 or any other JB rom we have? Generally, does this work on JB at all?
It shows, that drivers obliviously doesnt work on gb, so android uses software renderer.
Where did you find this driver? I don't see any new Adreno drivers on Qualcomm Adreno page. Only those from april..

I tried running it on JB (CM 10 MaXeD) and all it did was slow down the phone to the point where I couldn't unlock.
On CMDA if it matters.
