What are people's thoughts, opinions etc on it?
Seems like a good idea for people with a data limit
Just downloaded it, lets see how it does.
Edit.........
Just tried to open it and it says that it will not work on this version of ics, there is no Tun/Tap support in this kernel, which is Sony's kernel :banghead:

I'm running de-bloated stock ics and it simply states 'vpn unavailable'.
Sent from my XperiaS via transwarp conduit.
I just tried again with advanced ics 11 kernel and eventhough it ran I couldn't get to any settings to set it up, on the setup it asked to create a vpn but I don't think it actually created one.
So I uninstalled it.
Oh one other thing, it wouldn't let me use tapatalk.

It works ok on mine? Lol. Although I think it's giving me security error for this forum on Tapatalk

Is it just me or is anyone else no longer getting notifications when there's updates in the new market? Yesterday had a few apps to update and a couple more today but never got any notification. Luckily I happened to randomly check my apps and saw them..

You can turn on notifications in the settings of Google play

Menu -> Settings -> Notifications on new updates <check>
I have to say it - you didn't even look?
Uh yeah the notification has been checked, its still checked, data/cache has been cleared several times, still no notifications (sorry not an inexperienced underage noob over here). Just had 3 more updates too about 10 minutes ago.
Can anyone think of anything of actual use to try? Are you guys that still get them running stock or third party roms? Mines Samsung's stock 2.3.4 with the stock kernel. Its rooted but other then that no mods whatsoever...

Sorry - simplest answer is often it. So, rooted, unrooted? Stock ROM or other? Have you tried uninstalling Play and installing from APK posted somewhere here? Are these paid or free apps? And (since it's been biting me lately) were they installed from Market originally or from Amazon, getjar, or something else? Oh, and wifi or 3g (i.e. both on, just wifi, just 3g).
One more stupid one, but considering Google, have you tried just waiting 24hrs plus and see if maybe you're just beating it to the punch? You could try loading AppBrain, which runs around 24 hours behind for "seeing" updates, and if it shows up there before Play shows it, then there's definitely something off.
Let me know and I'll dig some more...
Most of the info you just asked for was already posted and you even quoted in my reply above. And its any app, paid or free, wifi or not, ever since Play came out. There's no magic to it. I'm simply not getting any notifications when there's updates even though its on.

Damn I'm outta ideas then haha. Even fixed permissions as well and reverted back to the old one and re-upgraded twice now. Oh well guess ill run MyBackup and wipe it and see if that works..

Just guessing here. Try turning on AutoSync in your Google Account settings, and see if that helps after a few hours.

no download progress..
Guys can you help me with this,, Ive been solving and searching for this issue about google play and browser download,, there are updates showing on the notification, but when I am downloading the updates, there is no progress bar of the apps that I currently updating.. Also same thing happens everytime I download on the internet with my browser.. The item/file I downloaded is in download progress ,, but there is no progress notification on my status bar..
mines rooted galaxy note II (GT-N7100), I only change the kernel, stock rom..
That's what it says in the market. I find this hard to believe. Any ideas why or ways around it?

Jesus, just change your build.prop, or wait until ICS is officially released. Until then, it obviously won't be compatible since the Market doesn't recognize this device as having ics yet.

Does not work on official ICS
I have a HTC Amaze 4G with TMobile. The official ICS was released a couple weeks ago. Not OTA yet. I downloaded and flashed the release on my unrooted phone, because it is official. Several of my previous apps, including MLB at bat 2012 will not run on my phone now. Does anyone know if or when this will be fixed? I paid a lot of non refundable money for an app that will no longer work on my device.
Read up and edited build.prop to reflect the settings from the old firmware (two settings my Google search lead me to change were were product brand and model) . Still a no go.
Any other ideas other than waiting for the Mlb to add the official sprint update?
Sent from my PG86100 using Tapatalk 2
mine works fine. I did however install it from sd card and not the market
Yeah I tried that. Did you install from the zip or is there an apk in there somewhere?

Hi guys
I've been so excited lol. I've literally ordered my Xperia S two hours ago and hopefully should receive it tomorrow or monday.
My question is that I currently have an Arc S. Knowing that the Xperia S does not have external memory available. So my question is how can i transfer my sms, bookmarks and whatsapp conversations across?
Also is ICS officially available for the device?
And is there another way to unlock bootloader? Like on the Arc S was the testpoint method. For some reason I dont want to lose the DRM Keys due to warranty issues. and Obviously the only way to root this device as far as I have found is by unlocking the bootloader.
Im so excited to receive the phone. I've been wanting this device since its come out.
Thanks for all the help in advance guys.
ICS isn't available yet and there is no other way to unlock the bootloader yet
Sent From My Sexy Xperia S
ICS is coming any day now, there's no way to root without unlocking the boot loader, BUT it doesn't void your warranty AND DRM keys are used for literally nothing. You can connect the XPS to your PC, and it'll show up as an external device (think iPod) via the MTP protocol.
Ah okay thanks guys...but I am getting it on O2-UK so i think it might not be possible to unlock it the normal way. Will have to wait to find out once the phone arrives.
Is everyone happy with their device so far though?

Without/with DRM keys, trackID works fine. Currently nothing has been found to stop working (at least on my side) without the keys.

Hi guys has anybody ordered their handset via o2 uk? i.e. order over the phone?
Yay its finally here. Just setting it up slowly. However the upsetting news is that I do not have an unlockable bootloader. However its not so bad. Ive not got a lot of bloatware with o2 uk. I did however uninstall the bloat that I could like wisepilot and mcafee, etc
Sent from my LT26i using Tapatalk 2
If you want a "clean" Rom without bloat, you can flash another official Rom with flashtool. There is plenty of info here on xda

You'll want to flash this one:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1716031
It's the newest (.75 and .76 are about identical), very little uninstallable bloatware (fewest of all customizations) and because it's Nordic you'll probably get ICS as one of the first. NL Generic is also very clean (and has .75 available), but is always one or two weeks behind with updates and has slightly more bloatware (but it's still all removable).
If you prefer a faster download mirror and don't mind perhaps waiting just a few days more, you should probably go with NL Generic, it's what I'm on. You can download Flashtool and NL Generic (go for .75 right away) from here: http://www.xdafileserver.nl/index.php?dir=Sony+(Ericsson)/SE+Xperia+S+(LT26i)/STOCK+ROMS
Good luck with it!
Thanks guys for everything. Im still in the process of setting up the phone so I may flash this one. Im just hoping one of ourvdevs find away to root locked bl devices I know this is a stupid question but link2sd wont work with this device will it? And the 32gb storage is that used for user/system apps as well or just media only? Thanks very mucj. Im falling more and more in love with this phone the more I use it. Screen is so pure. Oh and if I leave nfc on does that drain alot of battery?

You have 2gb for apps, that's more than enough. And NFC was designed not to drain battery.

it installs but you can't use it, when you try and watch anything it asks to upgrade thro playstore then the usual not compatible error
It was working on June 22nd when I posted, it stopped working when sky released a new version on the 3rd July...

Just have to wait for the devs to fix it I guess.

Do you mind if i ask, did you ever get this working on ICS, if so can i ask where you can find the apk
I use the standard Rom ICS Germany.
After I left my house with a WiFi Network I can't get an connection to the Internet...

I get the same. Doesn't happen every time, but it happens more often than not. I thought it was Juice defender that was causing the problems.
Using Generic DE through flashtool, and Doomlords Advanced Stock kernel build 8.
Full wipe and SD card formatted before install.
Is there any chance of hope getting rid of this problem?
Sent from my LT26i using xda premium
Same problem here, generic DE, upgrade via Sony PC Companion. Might be related to Google's NetworkLocationService, last time I restarted it and it helped.
Try another firmware,it happened for me before on GB.

It happens on Generic CH also.
Could it be that the problem lies with the kernel?

Mine randomly does it too, it doesn't even have to be on wlan first, it's just very random and you have to reboot to get data back! On CH generic
Sent from my Xperia S on which The Kernel has been installed but he bought no chicken.....
The same with Ka09 Xperia SSpeed and Advanced ICS Kernel, but I can't manage to get data back, even after rebooting, flashing kernel and rom several times ...
Stuck with wifi for now
EDIT: Data back again after a new "flash time"
I have this problem since my old atrix, and a friend with an EVO 3D has the same problem too.
I think it is an android issue...
I have the same problem on generic CH rom. I recently switched to ICS advanced kernel but I still seem to have the issue. It just seems to happen randomly and rebooting has (so far at least) always resolved it but it's irritating as I don't know it's happened until I go to google something or send an email
I went back to the GB Rom Europe. 75
Now all is well again!
The camera starts also faster than in ICS!
Sent from my LT26i using xda premium
This happened to me randomly. Tested both the CH firmwares and the Nordic firmware also.
Ics is just buggy... We just need to wait for fixes..
You can also try another kernel with ics.
Those are more kernel related.
