Xcream and [email protected] are both quite nice, stock is fine too. I like [email protected] battery icon too

Thanks for the replies guys!
I like the stock rom, it is nice, i'm just one of those people who like to fiddle
I'll have a look at the others

ROM - (GSM) - OFFICIAL SONY ICS PORT - Android 4.0.3 [19/04] *V1*

Here we have the Xperia Play port of the official ICS ROM from Sony!
Thanks go to expeacer & kamarush for their mini pro port which this is based on.
It is still a work in progress.. network signal is not working just yet.
Everything else does work to my knowledge..
Please post any bugs you have.
INSTRUCTIONS:
1. FLASH SONY ICS BETA USING FASTBOOT (SYSTEM.IMG + USERDATA.IMG)
2. FLASH DOOMKERNEL ICS v2
3. FLASH .70 BASEBAND USING FLASHTOOL
4. INSTALL .ZIP FROM SD CARD
5. REBOOT & ENJOY
(FIRST BOOT TAKES AROUND 10MINS!!)
___________________________________________________________________
DOWNLOAD ROM:http://www.sendspace.com/file/4f8b2f
USE DOOMKERNEL FOR ICS BETA:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1573184
You have to use the .70 baseband - flash this FTF with flashtool:http://www.wuala.com/ExPeacer/4.1.A.0.562/XPERIA_2011_4.1.A.0.562_Baseband.ftf
Previous basebands such as -36 or -64 will NOT work.
I will work on this more over the weekend.
If anyone can get signal working please let me know,
I think its a problem with the .70 baseband
Click thanks if you like it!
Hi Pricey,
This is great to see so many developers working on various ROMS.
Can you let us know what differences would it be compared to ICS++, DarkForest, KA12?
I know this is not a rite one because each has it's own customization, my question is whether it is geared towards High performance gaming or good eye candy...

If he got it from the arc then it certainly is NOT the same rom Sony will be giving us. I was under the impression that Sony was making plenty of PLAY specific tweaks to ICS to make using the control pad and playing games just as smooth as gingerbread.
Its a port from the xperia mini pro..
Thanks to expeacer & kamarush for their port
Im waiting. What time will be ready this rom ? (Sorry for bad english )

Obviously the final version will be more optimized for the play but this should be good enough until its released

The title of this thread is misleading...
The official build of ICS for Xperia Play does not exist.
The only official Build is a Beta.

Jelly Bean for i717

Hello all.
Been reading through the development posts and can't find a stable ROM jb with s-pen apps.
I mean really jb for the note.
Is there such a thing?
Reason s-pen and not Papyrus is I have a Wacom Cross pen and have gotten used to the eraser which only the s-pen utilities seem to work with.
Thanks for tolerating this newbie.

Stock Samsung apps won't be on jb unless Samsung release a jb ROM. All the jb ROMs are aosp based liked cm.
Some apps may work with that pen eraser though, don't have one to test.

Not sure if it works or not but have you checked out "memo beta"
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using xda app-developers app
Yes memo beta was exactly what I needed!
Thank you!
Now which is the best JB ROM, stable with decent utilities like K9 mail?

Oh I'm no genius. My smarts about things that pertain to this site however come from reading and searching and learning. Which, oh my, happens to be the golden rule of this site! Imagine that.
I didn't mean my post to cause strife.
I just need a stable ROM because I use my phone for work so I can figured some of you might have real world experience.
I didn't see a post or survey that listed JB and stability.
Thanks all and sorry for even asking.

No strife homey .. if you need to ask anything just PM me some people forget that we all have to start somewhere .. you might be the able to take any help that you received and help the next person .. I've been the noob ... I still am sometimes.. keep reading asking learning ... happy flashing and good luck my friend

If you want a stable non stock ROM go with cm9 official. If you're more adventurous try one of the three JB ROMs.

Isn't CM9 ICD?

Well no, because it has a different CPU, GPU and chipset. You can only flash an Xperia T ROM if someone has actually ported it, but I don't think that would be very easy. We have loads of great ROMs and I can't see what we're lacking that the Xperai T devs have?

Chill mate. Everyone has likes and dislikes. Personal opinions. There's no such thing as the best rom. Most good devs never claim my Rom is the best. They just put forward their work. People who like it, use it. Those who don't like it, use something else. Let's keep this friendly and not create wars over which Rom is the best. The best rom for "you" is whatever the hell "you" like.
