Don't worry. The Xperia P update has already been released in many regions, and I believe the updates vor the U, Sola and Go have already been certified by PTCRB.
I'm sure the ICS update will hit your device (or at least a flashable ftf) before the Xperia T, V and J are in the hands of consumers.
and again and again and again the same

Don't worry my friend. Just be patient and wait. Believe me: it's worth it. I was also mad, waiting for ICS on Xperia P. But Sony finally kept it's promise and I now I have a stable and bugfree ICS which is smoother than gb while eating less battery at the same time. Please consider that good development takes some time. Sony won't risk it's good reputation in breaking it's promises. You will get ICS soon.
I even heard some rumors that the 2012 line might get JB. But that will take time!!!
What about JB.

Why? If a device is able to run ICS, it is able to run JB, too.

OK so what so special about jelly bean except the different high number (?) I, didnt have really time to work around ICS yet, :silly:
So until Christmas Sony makes me happy :highfive:
P.S.
ICS Works fine for me except no compatibility with mw600 no sound track id but jelly bean might not change that

BTW xperia is a phone so phone is to make a phonecalls, take picture, browse internet (if that is fully working no problem) , or constant changing operation system, in extreme let transfer that in to computers how often do you change OS in Laptop?
i didnt check win 8 yet and I dont liked ? I still have XP in my (old computer) and I am not cry

I have motorola xoom running jelly bean and it's running smooth, you can compare the fluidity and smoothness to iOS devices. Jelly Bean is like Windows 7 of Microsoft Windows (fixed version of Windows Vista).
From what I understood by translating this with Google, we'll get Jellybean soon.
http://vnsony.com/threads/2486/
They say that the guy who told them very accurate info about new Sony smartphones(Yuga and Odin) also gave them info that there will be a Jelly Bean update in two weeks.
Well, your thoughts, gentlemen!
I think Xperia S will get support for updates up to Key Lime Pie, so it wasn't something to worry about.
Late October/early November seems most likely for JB on fujis and blues, late November for montblancs.
fujis= xperia s and arco hd
blues= xperia t tx v etc.
montblanc= xperia p u sola
that right?

this is exciting! it is strange though that sony have kept so quiet on this release, as normally they tend to mention an update and then it comes a few weeks later? is there a reason why they haven't confirmed yet either that said handsets will be updated?

Yeah, pretty much. Those are board names: fuji - S3 based (S, Acro HD, Acro S, NX, etc), montblanc - U8500 based (P, U, Sola, Go, etc), blue - S4 based (T, TX, TL, V, not J). Expect an announcement soon.

You know it would be cool if Sony beside his UI leaves a stock UI so we would basically have 2 UI's.Wouldn't that be cool?I saw that with Huawei phone i think...

Well I don't know about timing - on Android, Sony hasn't suddenly surprised users with version upgrades like that before, they tend to announce it in advance, and more recently, closer to the launch date as seen with the 2012 phones with ICS. This would be the tightest schedule yet, if they do announce it soon.
Previously, I wouldn't have minded much about Jelly Bean, but I was browsing a 2010 Sony Ericsson phone on 2.1 and it is MUCH faster than my 2012 Sony phone on ICS - so the aim of Jelly Bean to deliver performance and experience improvements of ICS is welcome in my book ... :good:
It's clearly going to happen. Sony have big plans to increase market share this year and promptness of updates is key to getting a god reputation. and Samsung has already got their jellybean updates rolling.....

I have bought XMP in April 2012 with great hope. I have used SE K550i for 6 years without any trouble and that's why I chose XMP as my first smartphone. I have waited for the ICS update with great expectations that it will empower my XMP to the full potential. But Sony disheartened me, like most of the people out there with a 2011 xperia device.
Then I thought that they are going to make things better by providing us with a buttery-smooth JB release, since 2011 xperia devices are only 1 year old at the time of announcing the JB by Google. But today I learned that we will not be getting the JB update. This is a bad move from Sony. They may not realize this but consumers these days are smart and well-informed. I bet all the 2012 xperia users are happy now, but soon they will realize that their smartphones will be as cramped as the 2011 xperias with ICS update. Also, they will be rejected just like us after only a year (or even less) from now. Moreover, as I understand form their official announcement on this matter, even Xperia U won't get the JB update (they have excluded this name from their list).
However, I will wait for Kamarush for the JellyXProject he promised.

Yes I think Apple's support is really good, but if you see a nexus phone it's the same. I mean the nexus s got the jelly bean update :good:
Guys, this is nothing new. The previous line of Xperias (X8, X10 mini + pro,...) were stuck on android 2.1 from sony. There was no official support from CyanogenMod, FXP moved to newer line of phones, yet the comunity keeps the development on and there are already CM10 ROMs. I had X8 and hated Sony for this. Now i have mini pro and I don't care about Sony, they gave us great hardware for great price. People there will keep it comming, just show some support to the devs, send them few bucks, at least for a beer, just to show appreciation.
Don' t worry guys we have XDA so we have no problem we will have jB and key lime pie sooner or later... cheers to DEVs! :good:

Or if you like me, Razr Maxx is not such a bad deal either
About Nexus Phone, i understand that there are peoples who likes pure Android experience. But it is truly for enthusiasts who are willing to add any feature by himself. For casual user though, if you already have satisfying experience with some maker's interface/functionality (Small Apps or Smart Action), the Nexus is lacking though.. But that's just my opinion..

Yeah agree, but I need a phone under 250 Euros. And by the way I'm an extreme fan of pure Android/ pure AOSP roms, but I love Sony phones and every stuff. I've got sony PlayStations, TV, media player, Radio, Hifi etc. . I would choose Galaxy nexus if it would be cheaper than 250 EUR. Any recommendations under 250.-EUR?
I've also been looking for a replacement for my Ray and I've found some interesting chinese devices ( not copies ) that look extremely good and with great prices...only bad thing is that their development section is almost inexistent...
Yo dawgs, thanks for everything, the help, good luck to all the awesome developers for Ray, glad 2 see the community growing, people helpin people, Sadly I can't take part of it anymore. bought a red Sola.

Sola was a good choice in my opinion, just don't do the same mistake that you did with the ray.
the only phone that is actually an upgrade its the xperia SX... same look, better perfomance, better screen, same size..

Sadly I can't keep it, it's a pain that I could never try Android 4.2, and lots of roms for Ray which I should give a try. I'm happy and I bought my Sola, waiting for amazon 2 ship it, but sadly realized that Sola has almost no development. Only rethemed roms by noobs, a miui port, and the FXP cm9 which is buggy as hell and lots of things not working. But I think Sola is great enough to use without custom roms. Sony promised JB so I ain't got no worries.

The new version of Android has been announced & it says that it will be supported to run on low RAM (512MB), single core devices as well!
http://au.ibtimes.com/articles/504575/20130909/android-4-kitkat-os-top-devices-features.htm
Post your thoughts about this.
I've heard a lot about its so called optimisation for lower end devices and I'm really praying that it is true!
Whilst the dev community here have done an excellent job in keeping the 2011 Xperia line fresh, it would be just awesome if it doesn't feel like our devices are being stretched to their maximum potential to run as is with JB.
Another 'hope' I have is that with the better support for low end...our batteries might just stop being blown away like a butterfly in a hurricane.
(Ok they say hope oft deceives, but one can only be optimistic)
I guess the new kernel will greatly improve the battery life & it says that there is optimization for running sensors with a very low battery consumption. :fingers-crossed:
@ak070
did you checked this video:
http://www.xda-developers.com/andro...drm-partition-backup-script-xda-developer-tv/
that guy told that Sony Ericsson devices probarly get no 4.4 only Sony Devices !
but we shall see
Lol! He didn't say that 2011 Xperias won't get 4.4. He said that 2011 Xperias won't be able to backup their DRM partition using that tool.
Here it is!
http://www.xda-developers.com/android/easily-backup-the-ta-partition-on-your-sony-xperia-device/
We'll see what happens...
Even without 'official' support, I'd be optimistic about getting 4.4 on our Xperias, we do have a really good dev. community here.
We've got 4.3 roms here that are being worked on (CM 10.2 - ok its not ready for daily use but its being worked on) so hopefully when 4.4 comes we'll get the same!
we can use custom 4.4 roms but we are losing the advantages of ROM by sticking to same hardware since 2011...
it's good to have latest OS on older devices but we won't enjoy maximum of it ... in future we need up-gradable mobiles like assembled pc's ( really man )
It says its optimized to run on devices with old hardware (especially) so I guess if we happen to come up with a 4.4 ROM, it will be smoother than JB but obviously it will need latest kernel sources.
I really wish that custom configuration device concept comes true...
If this News is true den we Can Have Kitkat as smooth as GB..
Then it ll be great

Questions
Will it be available for HTC Wildfire S [512 RAM][600MHz Single Core] ?
Man, it will be available for everyone, sources are posted at google source, it depends on manufacturer or developer if it will be out for your device as an image or flashable zip. If it is a low activity device then it is clear that update will not be released for your device.
We should learn things and try contributing instead of "hoping" we have plenty of guides to help us build ourselves or atlest help the developing Devs..
