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!

~ Qualcomm - Building the Drivers
Thank , i'm testing
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.
can i use it in gb for incriesing perfomance?
Rom Racing Xplay
while flashing suddenly reboot
I will test this on GB, even though you said its for ICS. And will this work on JB on another 205 device?

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..

Thanx,
But i want to take some other conformations too also just to make sure, however theoretically these should be faster without sonys other stuff... or maby it would be slower like ur seeing, i dunno,

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.

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.

What we need for now is a honeycomb or ics android device which have Mali 400 GPU (or probably Exynos 4210 cpu)
Qualcomm has released the Ice Cream Sandwich Adreno 2xx drivers: https://developer.qualcomm.com/develop/mobile-technologies/gaming-graphics-optimization-adreno/tools-and-resources
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.

No no, wrote "specific" - meant older. Basebands are not backward compatible.
BTW why you want 2.1 ROM? Despite 2.3.3 based are faster and better...

Depends on measurements - I used Antutu which shows real FPS (like in gaming), not just some calculated, as other benchmarks shows up.

Hi Guys.. i looked around and the only thing i found similar to this is another post about adreno 205 .. but this time the libs are a bit newer.. these libs are from jb to ics.. and i think the another thread are just new ics libs..
well.. by flashing this libs you get faster gaming (less lag), more quality, better gpu speed.. but dont forget to tick GPU acceleration at developer options in phone
just flash them via CWM : http://www.mediafire.com/?r7ttrjbcknb6shm
PD. i dont really know if these libs are better than the another ones already posted, but i can guarantee they are diferent libs, since these are 1.66 MB and another ones are 2.2 MB.. you will need to try it by yourself..i used these libs in mi rom and it got rlly fast..i can play games like dead trigger (cpu at 1024~1024) with no much lag ..

That's the question because all the roms based in CMX10 have CWM recovery. Anyway thank you very much Fera for your work, I'm gonna test it un your v23 right now :fingers-crossed:
Cm10? Hmm lets read the OP.... Yes! Feravolt wrote that it's should work on alle ROMS, so yes: it should work on CM10 too
Great that you'll look into this,Feravolt!
I'm on Cm10 right now, with your 1.7v kernel. We need xRecovery (like you wrote), but 1.7 has CWM.
We could do it manually (copy file an do some term commands)
Or can you provideus a cwm package?

What ROM and kernel?
What are your settings (min/max, i/o)
More smooth than what? (clean ROM, Seeder, CrossBreeder, ?)
What is it that you find to be more smooth? (Apps starts faster, data in app loads afster, switching apps, screen response, etc.)
I really like to know the benefit you're experiencing.

Im on SlimBeam v4, kernel Feralab v1.7nv , min 245 max 998, BFQ. Response work nice, but apps pop up slow. Apps switching is nice and smooth, but battery drain fast. Plus battery drain also related to the kernel and this mod.

Remove the existing seeder and flash this new methode, and check it using entropy check app (download it from market).
But, yeah you gonna lost V20's battery tweak, i guess.

Use below app to check random available entropy

I already didn't experience any lag in FeraLab GB v23 Voltage but installed ALR anyway and i must say that i was quite surprised of what it brought. The rom is super smooth now and the performance absolutely amazing.

Just uninstall the seeder apk (if you using seeder apk) or manual delete seeder in init.d (system/etc/init.d) folder and rngd binary in system/xbin if you are using rngd binary that was provided by Ferakernel V3.6 Stock GB.

Just to clarify, this zip doesn't work for locked bootloaders right? becase locked bootloaders restrict flashing kernel? Using FeraLab Marvel v22 upgrading to v23 soon
