They are mainly working on the Xperia S first like FreeXperia team, they stated they will work on other the P, U and Sola after the S is ready.
But P is an amazing set, lotsa people are possessing these, nd are ever waiting to get hands on the customs. :-(

Xperia S is flagship and has sold more. Also it has hardware specs similar to other phones.
Most devs are making roms for samsung/nexus or htc devices.
Maybe it is to difficult to make a aosp version for the xperia s.

I do find it kind of sad that the Xperia phones don't have as good of dev support. They are great hardware wise, but the Rom support is pretty terrible. If Samsung didn't make the Nexus I would have picked one up, but I got the S instead because Samsung makes terrible hardware and they are not reliable.
The reason Samsung have more ROMs is because their stock ROM is terrible...
But don't worry, you P, U and Sola users haven't been forgotten... we are working on tools for your device
Cool

I was going to buy an Xperia S, but as i opened the development thread, i was shocked to see that there were only 3-4 custom Roms and only 2 were the ones which get constantly updated...?
SXS is sony flagship device, it should have got so many custom Roms till date, but it isn't really the case..
Can anyone explain why ?

Sale is almost a direct corrilation of amount of custom roms. Xperias aren't selling well.

After the launch of xperia S, for next 20-30 days, xperia S was on rank 1
Even in Xperia Arc S forums, many people voted for xperia S...
I dnt think that sales are less

Yeah thats your opinion, we shall see
My opinion is that this is pointless.. I mean Sony is listening to their customers but I don't think they will update their old devices considering how many devices they released this year. They will only update their dual core phones and maybe not all of them. They might as well update some of the new single core ones (like the Xperia J). Our phones are very capable of the Jelly Bean update but everything is just a marketing trick! They want us to buy their new phones.. and I'm not talking only about Sony. All manufacturers do that.

Xperia J is a weaker phone then Xperia Neo V, check the specs and its a single core, so why we dont get JB instead of the Xperia J,
Somy must listen to thier user btw and not only to they customers

really bad....
Actually it's not so bad We have 2011 xperia phones... Now it's 2012, near 2013 In 2013 i'm planing to buy Xperia V or if it happens Xperia Nexus
That's a shame, FXP is just focusing on 2012 devices, but 2012 devices still get official updates from sony, sony even ported aosp to xperia S so why worring about them?.
We need a developer like nAa, who managed to port a fully working cm7 and cm9 to the x10mini/pro and x8, he is now working on cm10 (minicm10), which runs jb almost as smooth as gingerbread in first generation devices!
We need you nAa!!
One by one the real devs left us. But we still have some Indian modders here. I'm sure they will be the new devs. Wait for that time.

Lolz. I bet ull hate samsung. Nd xperia devices jst rock. Although service centres r irritating ones nd ppl der r dumb, bt xperia phones have caliber of dng everything a smartphone can do, example take galaxy s2 it has much better processor then neo v but its stl on ics that also 4.0.3. I guess it was a high end phone. samsung updates only its new flagships asap by d tym u buy note 2 , note 3 will b in market or s4.. Then ur note 2 will stay on jb no longer updates if dey come they ll come rarely. Nd ace plus same processor like neo v and samsung promises jb for it. I wonder hw it ll support jb..

Okk...if you guys say so...i will think about it.
Actually the thing is...updates to a newer android version don't matter if your hardware can't handle it good...what matters is the current firmware should be so refined to exploit the phone's resources at its best...what's the point of adding new features when the basic functionality is suffering.
In our case...our device lacks ram and is single cored...let's put aside the core thing...it simply struggles for ram in ICS and JB. And whatever hardwork teams like cyanogenmod may put into it...they can't provide full functionality that OEM provides...so in my opinion...maintainance updates are much significant...as they bring to you a better phone...not just a new interface with crippled functionality.
You may add various tweaks and improve the firmware to your liking...but the overall experience will not be as the OEM intended to be.
The precis is...even if a manufacturer doesn't update to the latest android version...it provides maintainance updates which are crucial...and samsung does it...and besides the updates...its phones are already loaded with functionality...and a phone with quad-core cpu and 2gb ram is more than sufficient unless one intends to carry a PC in his pocket...which is always thethered to the power outlet.
And the complains about exynos...they have been acknowledged by samsung.
And those who say Sony has ditched 2011 devices...sony has already supported us for long to the extent our devices can handle...it gave us ICS despite the limited resources our device has. And being a global company...it too has to survive. It has to concentrate on the competition. Accusing it of abandoning us is totally unfair. There was no lifetime commitment sony had signed with you...you bought the device and sony supported it as long as the device needed it.
Dont think of me as an advocate for sony...i am simply pointing to the fact that whatever firmware is on the phone...it should be perfect in utilizing phone's resources...not a burden on the phone's head.
Pheeewwwww..........sorry...too long a debate.
These are only my views...those who differ in opinion...simply ignore.

Thanks mate...i have already read your thread...and before that i have tried swap on system of about 150mb...multitasking becomes awsome but whatever media you use for swap...be it SDcard/nand...its life degrades eventually.
And i am not that well off to replace my card every 4months...and not to mention the terrible performance hit when the trade over takes place.
Thats why zram is better.
And i think any ram size below 1gb is inadequate for android 4+.
We have cast away from the thread's topic...my apologies guys...continue the original topic.

Sola has better display than xgo ( 480x854 sola, 320x480 for xgo), apart this they are the same. Buy a Galaxy Nexus or a Galaxy S II if you want something better
Well if still want a sony device try go,atleast itll be updated to JB

In my opinion, Sola is great phone (I'm Sola owner, for now), but the problem is the RAM , only 512mb ~ 100 to use !!
I'm willing to exchange it with P ,as it has 1GB Ram, Larger screen, second camera, 8mp camera, JB SW is on the way,,
So yes, go for Xperia P
I would choose the Xperia Z, it is a great phone, probably the best phone available right now.
Then, if he do not want a Sony phone do no ask in a Sony forum, look for the galaxy forums.
you may always want to look for phones made of qualcomm chipsets rather than novathor, mediatek etc. we are struggling to have the latest OS coz there are no sources for novathor.
