Hello All,
Sonyericsson Officially Confirmed Icream Sandvich Update for all sonyericsson xperia 2011 lineup including our xperia mini & mini pro.
Here is the official blog link:
http://blogs.sonyericsson.com/produ...ich-for-sony-ericsson-2011-xperia™-portfolio/
cheers!!
I so didn't expect that! I picked this because I'd be able to change to a custom rom once Sony Ericsson left it behind.
I do want to try an overclock kernel soon though :S
Yes this is true. Se just tweeted this

I'll believe it when I see it in person!
A really great news!!! I want the update very much, SE please release it before 2012
That would be quite unlikely since they just released the 2.3.4 update.
Awesome. I gotta say that I wasn't really sure if the phones could support it, but I guess they can.
Love the way they've made the hardware pretty much the same across the Xperia line, so they can get updates out faster.
Do you think the hardware accelerated GUI in ICS will eliminate all stuttering on android phones -ours in particular?
I know it's not much on the Xperia line, especially the Mini, which I have, but if it can get rid of it all together, it'd be nice.
Good news I hope we'll have release dates soon.
wow! This what what we all waiting for. Hope it'll be released very soon!

which mini do you have? 2011 or the older one? i have the sk17i, and in my opinion, it is the smoothest experience i can get on a cheap phone like this. i wouldn't mind if sony is not porting the ics.

On a cheap phone like this? Its even smoother than any dual core phone ive ever tried, well, except for the S2. It never stutters or lags, even when im playing with my emulators
Mini has lag problem in the touchscreen.
I hope that they can solve it with 2.3.5. o ICS.

A Polish named mikegapinski is managed to port ICS to LG GT540 which has only 600 MHz processor.
I think xperia has much better hardware and could support ICS.

mmmm
It will come out in different period for any device.
Maybe Xperia ArC on Jenuary and Xperia Mini on March.
Guessing is pointless
I just hope they will fix the unlocked bootloader bug with updates. Looking forward on tasting that sandwich!
Sent from my ST15i using XDA App
it doesnt matter when, January or March, the most important is fact that we will receive this update
cant wait for ICS & cm9
Okay guys,
All of us know about the imminent ICS update that our phones are receiving/will receive. Users of Ray, Neo V and Arc S have already the chance to upgrade to 4.0 version of the little robot.
But, after reading reviews or watching videos, i can notice that there are many voices of displeasure about the update. Phones getting slower, battery drains, HD games lagging or just not working...
What do you think:
-In this month, Will Sony develop a reworked version of the update (fixing all bugs described), releasing it for first time for the next phones in the list -XM, XMP, LWW, Arc, Neo, Pro-, and also for the phones that have already received the first update?
-What will you do? Will you update and keep ICS? Will you just test? Or you will stay on GB?
More info will be appreciated (official news, ...)
sorry for my english
This should not be a problem.
If you dont like the official ics roms, you can always go back to stock gb.
Or just make a custom ics roms based on the official ics.

well.
Well man as i am a user o xperia NEO V and had this update,I think that it does not worth it...it is laggier/some apps not working and the overall speed of my phone had ruined..Not that much,but as i play HD games, I can feel the difference...Finally,it is useful that games based on orientation are not working on my ICS NEO V,but were working smoothly on GingerBread ICS neo v!
Conlcusively,as i have unlocked the bootloader of my second phone XperiaMiniPRO and tried ICS on beta stage...i think that this small screen is not for ics...Gingerbread is more smooth,better,better and better
I dont think that SONY will fix these bugs for now,i cant predict for summer but I really hope!

Thread closed? you would be kidding hehehe
This is opinion, GENERAL discussion about our devices. This topic concerns to all of us. It's OBVIOUS that BETTER ICS custom roms will exist after the release of the update. Please give more mature opinions
About djnik7... I think, would ICS run faster on the mdpi devices? i think, as the screen resolution is smaller than the Neo V, Ray, etc., the processor has to deal with less graphics to run...

alright then my opinion is, the official ics will not run any better on our devices. although im still not sure because we havent even taste it yet.
but due to other xperia users who has has experienced ics, most of them complaining about it, like slow fps, high usage of battery and ram and that kind of stuff but yet im still not sure,
because who knows ics made for lww, xmp xm or active are probably different than ics that are already came to ray, neo v, arc s and it could probably be even better.
so our bet is just wait and try it for ourself
if one not satisfy of its performance, just wait for an updates 2.4.2, 2.4.4 and so on or just go back to stock gb 2.3 or maybe wait for someone make an ics roms that are based on the official ics.
Will certainly test ICS, after that we will see.
A small note to previous user: ICS is Android 4.0, not 2.4

my mistake, i have been confused about android version. so yeah ics is 4.0 not 2.4
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 cannot bloody wait! Thank you Sony!
But not for the UK? Has release as USA :'(
No Australia?
The last time Sony VAIO released an Android update, American got it, then a few months later, so did Europe - that was Release 5 for the Sony Tablet.
However, seeing as though that is just a USA forum, in the past, ALL Xperia Tablet S updates have been released at the same time.
Eagerly awaiting the release notes. Mobile Bravia Engine, please!
I'm pretty sure that it will be a global release, we will have to wait till afternoon tomorrow here in europe!

Always has been with this Tablet.
I expect he's just saying that as he is a rep for the US.
Project Butter at last. The main thing (other than the random shutdowns) that bugs me about ICS is the 30fps animations.
60fps here we come...welcome to 2013!!! Fingers crossed for a European/UK launch!
Even if its not a UK release just yet, I'm interested to see if its different or whether they've included the new Sony Mobile launcher. Given this is 4.1.1 after all....
I was hoping for a new feature from Sony here.
If its a good release, I'll cancel my pre order.

Ooooh, interesting - not tempted by the boost in screen res/features? Or just not that fussed about shelling out £400+ within 7/8 months? Will just need to wait and see. My XTS is destined for the graveyard anyway so this will just make its passage to the next life a little more...buttery.
I do enjoy using this device, nice screen size, good processor, so if the JB release doesn't differ much to the Xperia Tablet Z, then not much point upgrading!
Besides which, the XTZ is still over a month away!
Something tells me though that Jellybean won't arrive here for quite sometime...(UK)
Oh, and i just bought a new car
Bit skint.

Fair enough then, makes sense! I am still fingers crossed for the Jelly Bean launch today but, as you say, not holding out that much hope. Since using Nova Launcher I get far fewer shutdowns etc anyway so not too fussed.

Who knows that if there is a 4.1 update for the sony tablet S?
I think the users of sony tablet S are forgotten.....

It will come out today in Portugal as they've updated the info on Sony update site. http://www.sony.pt/support/pt/product/sgpt121e1_s
Procedimento de actualização do software | 18 /04 / 2013 (Procedure of software update)
Actualização de sistema Android 4.1.1 Actualizar já (Upgrade of Android system 4.1.1 - Upgrade now)
Even tough, the link isn't working and the System update on the tablet isn't allowing to update as it says that the System is updated. It will only be a matter of hours I suppose!
Why 4.1.1 though?
Sony VAIO always seem to be one iteration behind a release. 4.0.3 instead of 4.0.4, I was looking forward to the single gesture notifications.
Not alot of new features really, certainly when you consider it has supposed to have been in development since last September. No Mobile Bravia Engine which is a shame.
DLNA Function? I thought this had DLNA?
I don't know. I stopped trying to understand them since I think they don't really know what they're doing. Nevertheless, the changelog seems a little bit narrow and is only available on GB site (Portuguese and French sites haven't) so I hope the performance enhancements have a little bit more to add to it. Are you able to download it? I'm not.

Can't download as of yet, no.
A few users in Japan on XperiaBlog report having the update. They've commented on the JB XTS thread.
Hope they've done some work on the front end UI.
I have doubt in getting satisfaction with recent releases sony device, compared to my x10i.
Also, the reason behind this change over is due to heating and restarting issue for past few days.
Even, After back to stock rom and relocking the bootloader perfect baseband flashes. Nothing helps me to ride out of this issue.
Hopefully, i concluded that it should be a hardware issue.
So, i need to miss my x10i badly :'(
If you can please suggest me for good change over.
thankyou mates!

Still using my XPERIA X10i with 64GB Class10 SanDisk(3months use), overclocked CPU with root access and 1800mAh Mugen power battery.(1 - 5days battery life)
It's now become a music/media phone with Neutron Music/XiiaLive/Video players and a mobile file server.
Syllable G18 Bluetooth headphones keep the phone sounding sweet.
Thinking how good my XPERIA X10i still is, I thought, gee, the XPERIA L must be heaps better....
Hmm... that may lose some of the sparkle when one looks a bit closer..
XPERIA L appears to only support Class 6 MicroSD cards and maybe nothing over 32GB.
USB-OTG doesn't seem to be supported from what I read.
Sony is indicating the XPERIA SP needs to be referred to service support if touch screen issues are noted, so indicates HW issuse and not something a SW patch can fix.
Have an XPERIA S and that's in a world of pain after JB upgrade, where XDA Developers will probably be left to pick up the pieces if Sony doesn't address the many voices of dismay.
Third JB update mooted for early July, so it may not all end in tears.
Sony is not at it's best at the moment with firmware updates, but I'm sure they'll want to prove us doubters wrong. :fingers-crossed:
Given the above, I may enjoy my XPERIA X10i for a while longer before it is retired.
Still have 20GB of my SDcard left to fill.... :laugh:

You may be onto something there.
I can purchase an XPERIA LT25i for approx USD350.00 which is less than what I'd paid for an XPERIA LT26i
The XPERIA V has all the 'modern' features and an S4 Snapdragon chipset with an Adreno 225
The XPERIA V also has a good chance of getting Android 4.3 as the Adreno 225 supports OpenGL ES 3.0
Pity I already have an XPERIA S. [mumbling something about JB 4.1.2]
I saw a post were some dude in Asia lost his XPERIA V at the beach in the ocean while videoing and it kept on videoing for some time after it was lost.
It was found and returned to the owner some days later after being dragged from the ocean. All still working and the under water video was on YouTube. Can't say better than that.
XPERIA i1 HONAMI ... THE NEXT YEAR
