[0.9.9 bug] CIRCLE button acts like Back button in Xperia Play

I’m using the Gingerbread rom of Xperia Play.

Unlike the previous versions, the Back button is now working, but CIRCLE button is not working now. it’s working as Back button instead of game button.

It seems that ALT modifier isn’t implemented yet. http://forum.themaister.net/viewtopic.php?id=332

Please check this problem.

Goddamnit, I thought somebody confirmed that controls were properly fixed now on Xperia Play with these changes. (jpstar I believe)

I want to hear back from at least one more Xperia Play user (jpstar or whomever) regarding this issue before I look into this because it is a constant pain in the ass - I want this to be properly fixed for everybody in whatever ‘update’ I push from here.

Hate to say it, but it’s a problem. I just picked up an Xperia Play, loaded the current May 29 Google Play Store build and I’m seeing the same behavior, the CIRCLE button works as a back button. I’m running the Gin2Blur ROM, Android 2.3.3. I saw another post in the Xperia CM9 thread where they’re having the same problem:

That said, I found the apk version you provided jpstar in April, uninstalled the May 29 Play Store copy, side-loaded the other apk, and it works fine. The keymap notices are slightly different in that version and the buttons all appear to work.

Play Store version (May 29) Port 0: keypad-zeus. Port 1: keypad-game-zeus.

I’m glad to run any keypress tests, debug apk, or join on irc as you need. A shame Sony made the Xperia gamepad such a mess! This is a great emulator set, I’m glad I found it.
