Hello
I'm a glad Sony Xperia P user, wich have looked forward to the ICS update in quater 2, but as we all know the update has not been released yet.
Every day I get more and more confused about this....
I've tried to ask on Sony Mobile's Facebook page, their forum (talk.sonymobile.com) and every time they either post a link to this post on their blog http://blogs.sonymobile.com/product...ream-sandwich-rollout-for-xperia-smartphones/ wich as you see is from may. And it says nothing about the rollout for Xperia P, or they tell you to go to their Product Blog (same blog as the link above) and what you find there? Nothing but marketing things..... If you go to the specification page http://www.sonymobile.com/global-en/products/phones/xperia-p/specifications/ they still haven't changed the text "Upgrade to Android 4, Ice Cream Sandwich, planned in Quarter 2 2012" although that we are faaaaaaaaaaar away from quater 2.
Secondly i'm pissed of over that Sony not even post an update on the development on the ICS update.....
Do you follow me or not?
Great weekend to you
A confused Xperia P user
To be honest my friend, I wouldn't hold much hope of ics on the p until late august and even possibly September.
The ics update for the xperia s is an unfinished product that still needs quite a few fixes.
Their performance in 2012 as far as software goes has pretty much shown that they are just poor on software. I rather say that than to think they do this deliberately to limit the number of upgrades they provide.
Learn the lesson now... Never take their word for it as far as upgrades go. They deliberately mislead. I gave them the benefit of the doubt after the x10 debacle but they have shown they don't deserve it
Don't but Sony for software especially android software. You'll be very frustratingly disappointed if you do.

I've been told August 17th for the Xperia P ics upgrade from my friend at Sony. That is the date for US sold Xperia P devices. I'll check with him tomorrow to confirm that its still on schedule.

According to an article in last or the week before that, Sony in China said that Xperia P wil get ICS in august!
What is your thought? Do we get it, or do they wait until december 2015?
This is my first android so Im anyways having fun exploring GB.
I've really quit waiting for ICS. I know how buggy the last GB release was and wonder if sony would really test ICS this time around before releasing it.
August 17th is the date I am being told.

Figured we should have an official JB thread on this forum.
Till now there has been no word from Sony on Jelly Bean for our devices. Your thoughts ?
Please read this before posting stuff unrelated to topic:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=39592911&postcount=1774
I think that JB is not comming this year, since Sony just recently released ICS, and not for all devices yet (mine, Xperia U, will come only on September)... So only on 2013... Sad though.
Sony may suprise us.

Indeed. It's really down to device drivers. Now Sony are using their own inhouse stuff, (Thor chipset), it may happen quicker. Also ICS is not that different from Jellybean (unlike Gingerbread -> ICS).
I would say it's a safe bet to see ICS on at least the Xperia S before the end of the year.
Even more-so given Sony's intent to up their game in the mobile market. If they truely want to be king of the hill, they need great hardware (which I believe they are now doing), AND great software delivered on time. (still W.I.P)
Cm10 is in and if cm 9 comes 10 (jb)will also b4sony

Sony says no JB for 2011 device.
So, Xperia 2012 why not?

Nah..
Sony had corrected that. 2011 Xperia does get JB, atleast some selected devices(like Arc S for example).
I too think that JB won't surface, officially, this year.

sony wont be releasing the update until the whole 2012 Lineup has got ICS, xperia go, miro, active, P and U to go .. i'm ashamed.

oh and as we can see the LT29i xperia tx will be released late august/september WITHOUT JB .. another clue that sony has just shattered their dreams themselves.
JB will come sooner than you expect.

Source is inside Sony. I can't give you any exact information because by publicizing it I risk my source. Even if I gave you the name, would that change anything?

The nexus 7 is a tablet. You can't make calls and send texts messages from it. It has no 3g capability.
I hope I didn't confuse you but I don't think I said to buy it to replace the Xperia s. I meant to buy it to be up to date with android.
Sorry.

Hey,
Sorry for asking a very noob question. But I just had to ask....
When would Official JellyBean be out for Xperia NXT 2012 series. I'm actually craving for the Official JellyBean on my Acro S and S.. Yet looking forward for it also for my future Xperia SL as well as my current Xperia Ion and P.
If you guys have any information on the Official Release of JellyBean 4.1 on any of the Xperia NXT 2012 series devices, PLEASE share..
Thanks alot!
Noone does (except Sony of course ).It is expected to be by the start of 2013 but who knows maybe sooner maybe later for now nothing.

2013 is way too long. Late October / early November seems the most likely date since we've confirmed it with two independent sources.
Let's hope than.

K the official sony mobile italy meant the "update to ics" which was interpreted by all as jb
There is absolutely no update for xu in december
However we will get more info about jb rollout in mid december and this is final

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,

We have mid-range phones and that's how it should be. We always will be one step behind the better phones. I'm really thankful for JB that came for us and now we'll taste a stable one.

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.
