Question: Is there any project bring ICS to Xperia S? - Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go

Question: are there any project brings ICS to Xperia S?
I dont see any project such as CM9 for ICS XPS
Thanks

Hy, for the moment we can root the phone but Doom have see a bug in bootloader and we can't boot a custom kernel with this bug.
If i'm not wrong...

The guys over at motorola milestone has released cm9 for it. The camera is working as well. The milestone uses an encrypted locked bootloader and stock kernel. It still can be done by some talented devs like DoomLord (provided he gets his XS).

Yeah! Custom roms can be made without unlock bootloader! My old MS running quite smooth with ICS CM9 rom! Kabaldan is a great devs!

Arc s and xperia play have a cyanogenmod stable did to see if dev's can port this.But Doomlord don't make rom if i have a good memory.

The XPS is a completely different device people. We'll need some proprietaries to get ICS running properly, and we still can't boot anything without Sony fixing the bootloader bug. It's not the same problem as the Droid 1/2/X/etc, completely different story here. So now we wait for a fixed bootloader - and for Sony's official ICS that's likely to go live early/mid May. Then Doomlord and the FreeXperia people can port something (and I'm ready/willing to help them). But now it's just no use, because we'll hardly get anything at least nearly usable in a month.
TL;DR Porting ICS right now will take more time and effort than waiting for official ICS to drop mid May and starting then.

AFAIK, Bin4ry and someone else are playing around with CM9 development for the handset, as far as I know.

They sure are, but we won't know how it really works until we can test it on devices and that we can't do without the bootloader fix.

[Q] Ice cream for X10

Hi all,
Short question: Will it ever be possible to get ice cream for the X10? Or will it just be too much to run it without lag etc.
grtz,
A_U
EDIT:
No need for an answer anymore, I already know doomlord started a development thread
i am also looking for answer..!!!!!!!
probably. It was said that devices that could run gingerbread can theoretically run ice cream sandwich.

We even have 2.3.7 (Cm7) so..
ICS is really optimized for HD Displays (Something we don't have).
I doubt a FULL, 100% complete Port will come.

I believe the idea behind ICS was a new single open source OS that will run on everything from small phones to large tablets and everything in between.
Yes, that was the idea, but I don't see support for 2010 phones.
I won't even receive the X10i that I bought until Friday but considering they started with 1.6 and have 2.3.7 now, I am eminently certain I will soon be running 4.0.1 on mine.

CM9 on HTC legend?

Is it possible to install CM9 on my HTC legend? I really want Ice Cream Sandwich on it
Didn't you already post ics alpha 2 in the dev forum?
Sent from my HTC Legend using XDA App
I just tried downloading a CM9 alpha for Legend named Cofface, hmm.
Anyone have a download link for it?
Saw a chinese link in the dev forum, but the download speed was too slow (10kb/s)
I believe there is already a rom that has ported ICS onto the legend but it has quite a few issues that have yet to be fixed, thus making it a less viable choice when finding a suitable rom/. However if you mean the CM 9 rom that will be released by Cyanogen mod team themselves, I have my doubts they are planning on making one for the legend. Keep our hopes up with the other awesome developers that are working on the roms for legend (if there still are any..)
Maybe ali ba can confirm this?
Will there be officiall CM9 for the legend?
The closest to Ice Cream Sandwich on the HTC Legend is the alpha stage rom OP posted in development section.
If your asking whether Cyangenmod would be officially releasing CM9 based on ICS soon, the answer would be no. As iirc Cyanogenmod would be focusing on processors that are newer and a bit more powerful than the HTC Legends.

ali ba, why you don't say something about zeubea's CM9? Seems like you still think that CM9 it's impossible in our Legends.
It's funny that HTC Said that was impossible to have a working Gingerbread ROM in our Legends, and you just make the best Gingerbread ROM, and now you say that it impossible to have a working ICS ROM on our Legends, and Zeubea makes a working ROM
i didn't intend my former post to be provocative/degrading in any form. to the contrary, i am very grateful for what ali ba has done & achieved for us legend users!
i just wanted to ask if the recent progress by zeubea, in bringing ics pretty smoothly running with hw acceleration onto the legend & getting all the other hardware components pretty much sorted, could enable official cm9 support for the legend...

I would just like to point out Ali ba didn't actually say ics can't run on legend, if he did I must have missed that post. He said that he already made an ics port for his legend and it didn't run very good, no drivers for GPS,wifi etc and that he'd have to use froyo and/or gingerbread drivers which he didn't want to do, or release a rom that was cobbled together from hacks, or words to that effect.
I also recall that he made mention that ics he made would have been no better than an ics themed froyo or gingerbread O/S.

agreed, he just mean that he doesn't want to release anything that is half baked or fully stable, he doesn't want to hurt his reputation to release something like that. and i'm glad Zeabea shows up and take his time and afford in making ICS for our legend, and I got to say Zeabea ROM is good enough, and I can use it for daily uses what more can u ask for? if we still believe and work hard for it, anything is possible. That's why human is the dominance species for a reason. We man a lots of miracles, discovery many unbelievable things. ^^

I know what he said, and he said that, unless there's a miracle, we won't have an stable ICS ROM on our Legends.
What I tried to say is that he said we wont see an STABLE ICS ROM, I know it's possible to run all android versions on our Legend (Including Honeycomb), but the problem it's to make an stable rom.
And don't get me wrong, I like all the good work ali ba made with CM7 just because we won't pay him to do that. And if he thinks that it's impossible to have a good ICS ROM on our Legends, I respect his opinion.
official CM != stable ICS

No, he didn't. He guessed there won't be *an official CM9*, which is something different.
I'm not an expert on CM decision making, but here's my take: to be included, CM9 on the Legend would need to be stable AND high quality.
(in the bad old days, I tried several WinMo4/5/6 ROMs which were a) stable and b) awful, full of flaws and sloppy design details that would probably get an Apple dev fired).
Ali Ba's CM7.1 changed my opinion on hobby ROMs; it's so polished, I think HTC should OTA it as the official ROM for all Legend users. Thanks again.
I haven't tried zeuba's ROM yet (still too experimental for me), but I hope this will lead to a high-quality ICS ROM, too. No idea if/how/when it will be made official by CM.
(note to self: gotta send that dude a donation, he's really spending a lot of time, and making serious progress; good for all of us).
Does anyone know if something (drivers, ram,...) fundamentally compromises ICS on Legend (like "max 10 apps installable"), or could it become really slick (like ICS on One V) if a reasonable amount of work is put into it?

Lack of Developement is Killing the Xperia S

I've had my xperia S for over 2 months and haven't see any additions to the developement community. I'm really starting to consider getting rid of this device as the Roms available for it are lacking and the stock ones perform awful. If it wasn't for the CM9 release from FXP I would have parted ways a long time ago.
Hopefully we start seeing more developers jump board on this beautiful piece of hardware, but I'm starting to think the odds are slim to none..
Whats the deal?

Ics has been released on June 22. Thus, during the last 2 months, we have had:
- the official upgrade to ics
- not less than ics custom kernels with cwm recovery
- three custom roms based on stock ics
- cm 9.0, now stable
- cm 10, not ready but promising
Of course, nothing comparable to the nexus scene. But if you got a phone which has not been thought for the modding, you should not complain with the development community.

You forgot:
- MIUI
and we will get AOKP as soon as FXP Team releases CM device sources.
i think as of now we have enough custom roms, if we have 20-30 custom roms, man my phone wouldnt stop on flashing ,
and once the fxp team releases the cm sources, then we will have additional custom rom , (like semc debranding been waiting for this )
I am still on a stock ICS rom and I can't complain one bit.
The phone does what it says on the box, even my smartwatch works perfectly.
If you "expect" more than you have and are just going to complain because others are not making ROMS to suit your needs, then please... by all means sell it and get soemthing else.
Thanks all Sony fans and supporters!!
And live the Sony Corporation..waiting patiently for the future developement and releases :beer:

You can go to the Xperia ION subforum and see what is really lack of development.

Ehm. The update for our lovely Xperia P is not a custom one made by XDA-Developers but by Sony. And if I know Sony right they don't care about XDA-Developers.com So I don't think that they see your bug repport. And second. Our developers has a life like you and me.

One noobish question from me.
When CM10 is out, will it be totally new ROM (with 1000 bugs) or will it continue where CM9 is now?
I mean, if they have fixed something in CM9, like video recording, can we expect it also to work in first CM10 release or is totally unrelated to CM9?

Most features, once they fix the most basic errors they're having (wifi, sdcard, 3g), all the other bugs seem to have worked themselves out for the most part, check out the thread here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2092493
we're probably a few months away from a fully built and daily usable rom
So, now that JB for the Xperia P/Go has released, I guess we can discuss CM10 for Xperia U
