Xperia Play Essential Apps - Xperia Play Themes and Apps

what are the essential apps that should be installed in the xplay in general?

Root explorer
Fpse
Google earth
Applanet
Appbrain
Flash 10.2
Adobe air
This list could go on all day lol

I would recommend the whole assortment of gaming console emulators. I have seen them running gorgeously and... well, let's face it, the phone was made for them.
If you have root, Root Explorer and Titanium Backup are quite the asset, and if CWM comes to the phone, ROM Manager will be an important tool as well. 3G Watchdog if you have a cap on your data connection. My other recommendations are more sectorial: Cool Reader for ebooks, Dropbox, Firefox and GPS Aids.

I dont use applanet, but i know a lot do. Android drm is evolvolving to an extent where any dev worth his wack can protect an app from pirates anyway, so the majority off apps on applanet wont work anyway
Sent from my R800i using Tapatalk

thanks for the great feedbacks. this is my first android phone and i'm really excited in tinkering with it. i would agree on the emulators currently have almost all of them but lack sd space. i'm having problems running the tiger mame emu though

Apps for 2.1

Now when the release of 2.1 is close, what the "must have apps" are for us.
For me first I will get is firefox and winamp
any other apps that have passed under our radars?
Winamp. Must have music player.
Launcher pro. Must have launcher.
Lots of the newest games if you are into that.
Most of the new apps made by members at the android apps and games section requires 2.1+

Whatsapp and the live wallpapers are the two biggest things im waiting for. Also being able to download the latest versions of good games. I had to download v1.0 of doodlejump because the rest are for 2.0+
Seriously, I mentioned it before, with the already short battery life time, why waste it on live wall papers? I never tested it but I assume it really drains your battery, wouldn't it?

The last time when a thread like this was opened, the update delayed for another month, so be careful with such things

I use non-3d live wallpapers on my 2.2 Captivate and get through a full day (8am-11pm) with at least 60% battery. Well optimised live wallpapers use less than 2% battery. Well worth it IMO.
Apps2sd is kinda super important 2 me ) and all of the games and apps witch support 2+ android ... but i will be pretty impatient to use Tango.apk

Chainfire 3D

Ive downloaded the pro version, along with the plugins. No matter which plugin i use, I never notice any different games in the market. NOVA, Modern Combat etc. Are still not showing up. Yes i pressed the 'fix market' button still to no avail. Has anyone gotten this to actually work with their device?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using xda premium
go to default opengl menu and select nvidia as the plugin then go back nand click fix market settings and reboot ur phone then try
I had chainfire3d on my captivate and loved it.
I am having all kinds of trouble getting it to install on my skyrocket tho.
I have tried downloading from the market and from the www page. directly to the phone and transferred from usb.
NO matter what I cant get the pluggins to install. I am root. so doesnt make any sense.
I remember needing to punch some code into terminal emulator with the cappy and i have searched and typed a few different commands into VrE again to NO avail. Getting kinda bummed about it now as its been 24 hours since root..I also installed the 2.3.6 rom on our forums last night.
SR was delivered wednsday with 2.3.5 stock from the Amazon . penny sale.
Anyone kn ow what I am doing wrong?
reinstall your phone and try again. I have it installed on my i727r and it works perfect

You google the game and find out which device it was made for. Also many of the gameloft games aren't on the market. Search for shadowgun.
Why are guys even using chain fire? I switched to the skyrocket from a Dell streak 5 with the original snapdragon processor and all my old gameloft games work and most others as well, even shadow gun runs flawlessly from the market with no mods at all. I'm completely stock, not even rooted on 2.3.6

Because we have games that need it.
You should atleast root it so you have CPU controls and app.controls because it saves on battery

Galaxy on Fire 2, Pinball HD, and better versions of Fruit Ninja, Backbreaker, and others. Also, even though it's not a compatibility thing, installing Chainfire 3D made the textures in Riptide GP load at a much higher res.

PSX4Droid 3.0.7

I know this app wasn't working in Honeycomb, but yesterday I thought about giving it another shot after FPSe refused to run Chrono Cross without crashing, and low and behold it worked.
So yeah PSX4droid 3.0.7 works on ICS for some reason unknown to me, and the settings are a lot less painful than FPSe.
I do not condone nor like warez
So any mods etc read that line before judgement
Do you have the apk for this as i know the app was removed from the market and available for free on some websites with the developers open consent and or permission but i cannot seem to find it at the moment.
Sent from my Transformer TF101 using XDA Premium HD app
The reason it was removed from the market is because Zodttd had some issues with google market removing his apps due to some stupid reason which hes fighting. But hes also considering removing from Cydia on apple jailbroken devices as well.
i will try 3.0.7 later. i know 3.0.5 did not work.
I came across the actual apk on his site a couple times but I know it wasn't easy to find.
I just went ahead and bought fpse, it works so much better for me on my phone and tablet. And plus, I have a ps1 and ps2 emulator on my laptop as well.

Comparison of Browsers
After while a short time playing with KF, I tried Dolphin, Skyfire and built-in browser of [CM10] Jelly Bean ROM using SGT7 enhancements [Linaro].
My experience is that default built-in browser is quite good, Dolphin has gesture features, Skyfire has video plug-in something.
So, besides what I see above, is there anything outstanding of browser u'r using? plz share with me (us). what's that video plug-in of Skyfire for? I dont like the way Dolphin asks to enter gesture mode, why cant we just use gesture directly when browsing?

It did the job and works well on the tablet. I bought the subscription and I know that my wife would be quite happy about it. I don't know why Amazon does not allow other tablets use this application too. It is more sells for Amazon for sure.

theme support
okay, this is probably a stupid question, with an obvious answer, but i'll ask anyway. i just flashed the Jandycane ROM to my Kindle, and everything works wonderfully, however i have no idea where to find a different theme for it. there is a Theme Chooser that was installed with the ROM, but i have no idea what themes are supported, nor where to look for them...and my forum searches have been fruitless, although i'm sure i'm searching for the wrong thing...
can someone point me in the right direction, please?
Hi, I wanna ask is it possible to replace or remove camera shortcut on lock screen in Jelly Bean AOSP Rom (NOT a CM10)?

You mean like Cydia for iOS right? I can't tell if you mean a type of Cydia Store, or a just an app store. I also had an idea for this a couple weeks back.
Sent from my SCH-I500 using Tapatalk 2
I don't know what that is but like what I had in mind was a app that has categories etc for apps, and it would be like for root stuff, like root apps or apps from people on here and other forums, to kinda localize everything into a easy to navigate spot so you don't have to search a huge forum for a download to someone's app or have to search play store to find the right root apps, because to me finding root apps on play store can be a pain.
But lime I said its really just a idea and it would be a little difficult to get going and make actually happen.
Also a app where its like daily/weekly updates about peoples stuff, but drippler kinda does that.

I might make this app this weekend. The UI would probably be terrible though. If I made this, it would have a ROMs section, tweaks section (mods to system and stuff), an apps section (root apps only), and an App Developers section (apps that started on XDA or another Android Forum, or just apps that I think are cool but are not on the play store. Once I know that the app works and can successfully download and install apps, I will work on the UI to look like the Play Store, except with the Holo Blue accent instead of the green one. It would be my first app, too. I'm also learning Android Development by Team Treehouse, and they show how you can make an app access the internet and pull things from it (which is saving the apk, and then installing).

u would need permission from xda and it's better that they make it.
xda devs don't only make root apps also having roms would be expensive and unnecessary because they'll have to handle a boatload of downloads and space to store all the roms when file-sharing sites work just fine what would be better is u subscribe to a Rom and get updates and links etc from there...
Anyways
Where did u start learning?

I started learning 2 months ago, and where I started learning was at my school. I can stay in my schools library after school for 2 and a half hours and that's when I learn android development. I have Eclipse and the Android Emulator working fine on the computers over there (with permission of course). I found team treehouse when watching a tech video on YouTube, it was an ad and I clicked on it.
