I found this on the site from Sony (Ericsson) some info about Android 4.0 !!
1. 3G native video call without 3rd party apps.
2. Update kernel version to 3.0
3. 5MP 16:9 resolution not 3MP & 2MP 16:9 resolution for Xperia™ neo V
4. Mega bass Equalizer and manual Equalizer.
5. Noise reduction in Video mode of camera
6. New lock Screen
7. Improved battery lifetime
8. face unlock feature for xperia series which have front camera
9. smart dialing
10.CRT animation
11.The song change by press and hold volume up/down while it was locked
12.Better RAM management as we have 512 MB ram but it only shows near about 320 MB nearly
13.Voice recording App
14.Two way call recording app (G502 has that feature in phone itself)
15.file manager app.
i put these info here because not all the peeps are know this.

That's what someone's saying SE should do (in the comments of the article), not what's actually coming. So basically misinformation.

hahaha we should see mate
AFAIK, kernel will not be updated.
1,2,3,5,7,8 would be great And a good music player.The one in SE roms is crap tbh.
KalleD (SE engineer) already confirmed here @ XDA that the kernel won't be updated.
The rest are probably just rumours, besides we've all seen the alpha and most if not all of those things weren't there either.

CM9 has face unlock but the camera's don't work...
number 8 means camera on at (almost) all times = battery drain. i would look for a way to kill this facility IF it was real.
that list looks more like a wishlist than a feature update, i doubt we will see it.

Camera is on as much times as you unlock your phone. All "cool" and "fancy" features are most likely battery drain. You wont get anything "for free".
And yes most likely you will have option to disable it.

Visidon app lock plus got the same feature and still beta,yet works ok on Neo V.Sometimes kinda annoying tho,specially at night without any light.So if Sony add this feature I too really hope they will add a Off face unlock option somewhere in settings.
Anyway completely off-topic,but wonder if Sony will give out the 2.3.7 update for 2011 xperia series before ICS release.

2.3.7 is impossible at them moment
That would be like giving us Vista SP2/3 after the release of the Windows 7 source code
Stupid example ^ But kinda proves my point
What a nice talk here ^^, and indeed the camera doesnt work sometime because its a alpha a.k.a. Beta, but its would be nice if it work on 4.0. And no battery drain i think because they say: better battery life, but we shall see
i hope will stable nearly , cant wait ics on my x10i

Hey Guys - trying to decide which one to choose from - Can get them basically at the same price ...
I have tried playing around with both - main points to look at - speed and camera.
The XLWW is definitively faster - but the images taken at artifical light - seemed more yellowish (should've been white) + there was more noise and less detail. The Wildfire S on the other hand made better low-light photos but was a bit sluggish as compared to the much nicer interface the XLWW had ?
Another point is : HD video on XLWW vs 640/480 on the Wildfire S
Oh and I am really keen on the Wildfire S design (not that the XLWW is that bad but the WIldfire is better).
Which one is the better one at the end - what is your opinion ?
I would go for the XLWW. 50% of my opinion 'cause I'm a Sony Fan.

I've used them both and I also recommend the XLWW, it's just better than the Wildfire.

Thanks - I think the wt19i is better myself - it's just that the camera issue is kinda important to me and the little test I made in the shop didn't convince me to take it ... I know it's a low-end phone - but still 5mp is supposed to make decent images at least.
I have had short experiences with both phones. And I would choose Sony Xperia LWW over HTC Wildfire S any day because.. its..
Newer (October, 2011 vs May, 2011).
Will soon get ICS (and this is a big one for me).
Lot more processing power (1GHz vs 600 Mhz) - this will matter a lot if you plan on keeping the phone for a while.. there is so much in the Play Store and you would want to install a lot of apps.. the more processing power, the merrier.
Music is really loud - although yes it distorts at high volumes but its awesome.. especially when watching youtube videos with friends in high noise areas).
Got a front-facing camera. I am an avid Skype user so it was a must for me.
Regarding Camera.. yes, Wildfire S is definitely better with stills.. but i would say it's a little compromise over LWW's ICS love and greater processing power. And moreover, LWW can shoot 720p videos..!
All said.. i still love to hold Wildfire S over LWW. But verdict - Sony Xperia Live With Walkman.
Hit Thanks button if I helped.
My vote for "Sony Live With Walkman", there are several reasons.
1Ghz processor
512 RAM
Start ICS 4 update this week onwards.

No, i don't think so. Xperia Neo V had some picture quality issues too with GB and it hasn't changed with ICS.
But, you can always post-process images to remove that yellowish tint.

the yellowish tint is easily removed - I would be more concerned in the loss of detail made some test photos at a shop today - compared to the wildfire s - the lww had significantly low detail when image is zoomed ...
otherwise all the rest seems much better - but I am hoping his could somehow be a software issue

Yeah indeed, its a software issue coz it overcompress images but I am not sure if there's a fix for that yet.. maybe some senior member could shed some light on that (anyone listening?), have you tried googling it..?
But even if you decide not to go for LWW, Wildfire S is still a big NO, the processor is really dated. What other phones have you considered..? Is Xperia Neo V (there is a bit price drop with the launch of Sony Xperia Sola) and HTC One V within your price range..?

actually had a look at the Neo V and the picture quality of the camera was pretty much the same - which lead me to the conclusion that the problem might be coz of the software... or a crappy camera matrix.
anyways - the lww works really like a beast with the regular rom that it comes with I was looking at it in the shop and was impressed - let alone with a custom rom - just maybe waiting on a fix for the overcompressed image - wasn't there going to be a less compressed version of the image coming with the ics ? (as a setting ?)

No official word from Sony about the setting, just street rumors, which got proved wrong with Neo V, so hopes are low for LWW too. Yeah, u r right about the stock rom - m a big time timescape user - looks beautiful, works cool.

I truly hope this gets fixed - I see the same problem with Neo, Neo V, LWW, ARC - pretty much most of the late 2011 phones have this issue ... so until a fix is released I will be pretty much holding off.
And you won't have to wait for long.. coz ICS coming to LWW soon starting in a couple days as per the official Sony blog. Start asking around on ICS related threads.

.. and man i just realized its the android 4.0.4..! The ICS update on Neo V I was talking about earlier was 4.0.3. This time, both LWW and Neo V will get 4.0.4. And some guys here at XDA saying we will get a new kernel too.
So hopes are high again for a fix for the camera.

I would go definitelly for Xperia. HTC is compared to Xperia waaay slower. I had both of them in had, so I can tell.
Hello guys, i had sony live with walkman, but he broke.
Now, i liked xperia sola, but, on XDA xperia sola development have little custom roms, so, with the arrival of ics on sola, roms will emerge as there are on other devices? like xperia ray, live with walkman and others that have much custom roms...
sorry by my english...
In next time CM9.1 will come to our sola For sure in Future will come more Developing for the sola i think, but not as much as for the XperiaRay or the XperiaS :/ The XperiaS is widespread and the sola not, it's more a "low active" device i think but ROM's are not all! The important think is that you have a smartphone which you really like and not a smartphone with that you can change everyday to a new ROM!
And sorry for my bad English

Ok, you´re right, arriving the ICS on sola is already a great step i think... but, some good custom rom´s are also great...
Do not go for it. Buy any other brand. The development for U,P and Sola is like zero. Even after ICS i don't think there'll be any good development. Go for sAmsung device. I know they're ugly and all but the development is awesome.

Nonsense !
There is no sense in developing for GB because ICS is right behind the corner.
After getting ICS there will be plenty of ROM's ! U and P are the same phone, only differences are screen size and ram therefore every rom that comes to P can be ported to U in no time.
Samsung devices are crap in matters of build quality.

Same happened with my Atrix. came to a NEW board and now its highly developed
Good luck !
I just got the xperia U today, awesome phone !
I own a galaxy note and yes the development in that board is astounding. With the Sola, I'd wait til ICS comes out and see if development picks up, if it's that important to you. I got a Sola as a backup device and I can tell you that I'm extremely happy with it. For my requirements, it's very reliable and cost effective. It runs games and apps flawlessly. temple run doesn't lag! Lol

The last time i use a custom rom is on my x10 mini .
For me the custom rom is for those phone which cant get official update .
I don care about the fancy UI thing as you already can do it by installing launcher pro etc
The ICS on xperia P which using same chip with sola is running more than decent .
So it probably does not need any custom rom at all . At most some clean version of stock rom without bloatware .
Just my opinion .
IF...
if you want to have your phone updated as fast as it can be you should buy google backed smartphone like galaxy nexus, companies using android are not to keen on making hasty updates to already sold phones so its better to stay close to the source of android development. If i could get my money back from my Sola i would do so and then i wouldn't hesitate to save some money and buy nexus or sgs II (which used in good shape are like 20-30% more expensive). I should know to not trust Sony in making the ideal phone for me (it was, on paper..) nevertheless its a good phone but in that price range its purchase ain't reasonable IMO.
Since I started using it there were no positive surprises, just the bad ones for ex. you can't make folders in the main app menu, I can't comprehend why on home screen folders can be created, but in app menu you can not make them so with a lot of apps its one giant mess. other trivial example is the Sony's ICS rollout, which is very sluggish and as far as Sola is considered i think it might be the last major update to its firmware.
For me its 5.5/10 in terms of overall satisfaction of owning it.

What do you like more? A colourful Illumination Bar or a Magical Display? Just Kidding
A perfect/good smartphone is good because of it's small great things, not because it has a Tegra 3 Processor or 2GB of RAM. Thats my Opinion
I think you should go into a electronic store and hold both devices in your Hand. The sola has a bigger Display and you can use it with gloves, yay So I would buy a Sola, but listen to your heart

I held a sola yesterday but when i surfed the internet it was a bit laggy...may because it wasn't updated to ics ? I don't know why....colours were REALLY beautiful too!
So, when you were kidding above did you really meant sth? Xperia U's screen can be compared with Sola's one? (forget the inches, talk about colours)
The internet thing: maybe the Ram was full?
Both displays have 16 millions colors and both have the Bravia Engine, so I don't think that there is a difference

I can't remember for the ram...
From the videos i have seen till now, Sola and U are exactly the same but U has only 4GB user accessible :-/ i think i can cover this problem witha usb adapter....you think that usb adapter will be annoying? Or will it be easy to get used to it?
Only reason why you should buy U instead of Sola is front camera. If you can live without it then Sola is better phone most definitely.
Also keep one thing in mind that both of these phones will NOT get official JellyBean from Sony. So if you are a fan of Stock manufacturer's firmware, you might want to reconsider buying either of these two phones.
Though, hopefully they WILL get unofficial JB Rom such as Cyanogen etc but it may take a long while to get everything working in these roms, there is also a chance that some features such as video recording may never work in an unofficial JB rom. So think before you buy
Nothing better than the stock rom
Go for a device that will get jelly bean
One more and last question guys...if I buy xperia sola and a freeze suddenly appears and as a result i must remove the battery to "unfreeze" it, what can I do then? I saw the battery is unremovable and it wories me a little.....any help? If there is a solution for this "problem" i will definately buy Sola,otherwise i am afraid i have to reconsider buying a new phone...
I think that there is a way to force reboot on such type of phones, something like power button and vol down...

On this phone you dont remove battery, you do vol + power untill the phone vibrates 3 times.

Everyone have their own preferences

of course.... Xperia Sola is better than Xperia U... because Xperia Sola has external sd card whereas the Xperia U does not have... My friend's Xperia U running on stock ICS has the wifi bug... where he tries to turn off the wifi but the wifi still kept turning on... so.. consider Xperia Sola maybe? XD

after getting my Xperia Neo stolen I decided to go with Sola - as the 3.7" inch screen is perfect size for my hands. It is the minimum for me to be able to write text in portrait orientation (XU has 3.5" screen).
On the other hand I *hate* Sola's floating touch (or glove mode)! Main reason is that you cannot switch it off in games - what good is dual core processor if you are not able to control the game properly due to this floating touch nonsense? To name few: Triple Town, Temple Run, Muffin Knight, GTA3 and others are unplayable (even though the performace is ok). You can get rid of floating touch with different ROM (at the moment there are only two of them), but if you plan to game much, better go with XU...
Another thing to consider is that Sola goes crazy when on charger - it won't react correctly on touch - it think it is floating touch technology again to blame here... (don't know if the same problem occurs on XU)
You can google both of these problem - I would love to know about them before I have bought my Sola :/

after getting my Xperia Neo stolen I decided to go with Sola - as the 3.7" inch screen is perfect size for my hands. It is the minimum for me to be able to write text in portrait orientation (XU has 3.5" screen).
On the other hand I *hate* Sola's floating touch (or glove mode)! Main reason is that you cannot switch it off in games - what good is dual core processor if you are not able to control the game properly due to this floating touch nonsense?

*****NO OFFICIAL JB UPDATE***********
Link to my opinion...............
If you're okay with the fact that this phone will not get JB, go ahead.
In my opinion, wait one month or two, all the phones announced on this CES '13 will start to be realeased by then and a lot of phones will come very cheap with a lot of funcionality.
I don't use officall updates only cm releases
Things are important for me:
Camera quality
Custom rooms
Design
And new phones comes late and they will be expensive in my country

camera quality is great.........
many custom ROMs for this device............
-the camera sucks for me sincerely (a lot of noise, slow autofocus and camera key has a bad feedback)
-dev support pretty good (a lot of roms, CM9 nearly stable CM10 in working)
-beautiful design, no plastics noise, fantastic rubberizzed body
-display fantastic, great resolution and brightness
-audio speaker with low volume but has a clean sound, speaker phone has a low volume but high quality, dual microphone works very well
these are my opinions
1. Normal camera without fantastic quality
2. Good display
3. Pretty perfomance, but not enough RAM
4. JB will be from CM and other dev teams based on rom from SXP
I bought my Xperia Sola about a month ago
I am really enjoying this phone, and I think it is definately worth the money it costs
take in mind it won't be updated to JB officialy EVER.
Would defiantely recommend, if you can add a little cash and go for Xperia S or Galaxy S Advance, also not a bad option. :laugh:
If you want to use it for the internet - no - worst battery EVER. If you don't need the internet, maybe.
P.s. I had the Mini too -way better battery.
If you're planning to use CM releases, then this will qualify as a phone.
Stock is just horrible as it can't function as a phone: Lag when people call. Crashes when SMS arrives.

Hi,
As you know Xz2 has a bad quality in pictures specially when we use it in night ..Is there any camera application or mod or something like that which we can use to improve quality?
Does any one knows any news about sony developers which we hope a better camera app in future?or this 20 mp camera is useless?

Sony Dev Team 7 said they are working on making both Z1 and Z2 much better
Z2 may take some time due to the release of Z3

Lol i find that my z1 outperforms every other phones i have used especially night picture. So i wouldnt say its that bad. But improvements are always a plus.
I used an s5 and it outperformed Z2. Especially in low light.

As I see in Z2 the image quality in day is normal(only a 8mp is useful ) and in night it is disappointing

For me in low light it is. The pics from Z2 come really noisy.

Team 7 as in those occasional weirdos who sometimes show up on Developer [email protected]
i do believe they are a second or alternate teem to manage flagships, unless they disbanded or unless they changed it but it was on a post on Talk sony and Developer world around a couple months ago
