Hi,
Sorry if I post in the wrong area.
Since 1 month I'm searching the internet and everywhere it says that the ANDROID 4.0 update for SONY XPERIA S has been released.
I connect my phone to internet and to my PC and everytime I search for updates, nothing can be found.
Can anybody help me and let me know how I can update my phone to ANDROID 4.0 ?
Thank you

Not sure how to word this lol... I am looking for app to use my phone data on my laptop, my mate as a Nokia and he as one called joikuspot.... just wondering if there is one available for this phone, without doing any major mods to the phone??
As I good understand you would like share you cellular internet to laptop, so you need "internet shering". It is avalilable in the newest HTC update 7740. Connect you phone to PC open Zune and check for update. If you have 7740 installed and don't see internet shering in Settings I don't think you will find any software for this.
You need the latest firmware. Its not 7740 that allows it.
I have just updated to to latest software but still cant find it..

Usually telephone companies for Branded cell release an update (is not a firmware update) that add toy your Setting menu the voice "Internet Sharing" so you can share your connection via USB or Wifi as hotspot.
For me.. (i have Unbranded cell) 1 month ago Zune show "HTC update available".
Try via zune or try to call your mobile Op. if not you have to Flash your phone with Custom Rom (on base have Internet Sharing)

Im pretty sure there is

I've been wondering, will the "backdoor" method work?
you know, the one we used to root 4.0.4

Changes I have seen thus far:
Notification LED works for missed calls now (but not for SMS).
Home screen now auto rotates in landscape!!
Camcorder lag is fixed with image stabilization turned on....however, it is still 1 channel mono.
Dialer seems quicker but I have yet to load my contacts for a true test.
That is all I have seen thus far.

Hi.
That is from the Sony Homepage and so my Phone tells me after updating to 4.1.B.0.587
Update your software to benefit from:
Quick dial allows you to quickly find the number you are looking for
Recent Apps button for clear overview of your applications
Quick responses for incoming calls
Optimized email application for multiple accounts
Improved control of your mobile data consumption
For me the "Contacts" now starts faster. Before update it needs 3-4 seconds to start. The LED for SMS doesn´t work. The whole system feels "snappier" for me.
I flash the ftf file with flashtools, did NOT wipe data and NOT wipe cache, after updating and restart let the phone settle down for maybe 10 minutes, then i used the rooting method like before (flash another Kernel, root with Doomlord´s tool and flash back the other kernel) to get root again. Voila. Now everything works fine.
Greets,
Marco

Also noticed that this new baseband 77 is quick at grabbing signal.
Prior to this baseband, whenever I rebooted the phone and got to the unlock screen, my status would go from:
No Service --> No SIM Emergency Call Only --> Rogers
It would take about 5 seconds to get to my carriers name (Rogers).
Now with baseband 77, it goes from:
No Service --> Rogers
in about 2 seconds.
Nice improvement.

Hi folks
Here is how to root any 2011 Xperia running any of the 4.1.B.0.587 4.1.B.0.431 / 4.1.A.0.562 and 4.0.2.A.0.62 firmware . No need to downgrade kernels or anything, just root it straight away
Rooting
Go to settings > Security > Mark "Unknown sources"
Settings > Developer options > Mark USB debugging
Settings > Xperia > connectivity > USB connection mode > select MSC mode
PC Companion installed on your PC.
1) Connect your phone to PC ( IMPORTANT > Skip PC Companion installation pop up on your phone.) and wait for the adb drivers to be installed. If these drivers don't get installed, phone would not be detected by Eroot.
Make sure nothing else ( specially flashtool ) is running on your PC in the background.
2) Download this rooting toolkit. Google Drive /// MediaFire /// 4-Shared and run it. If any downloading starts, cancel it by clicking the green button. Don't let the eroot download anything.
It should now detect your phone and show an option to "-root". Just click on it, wait till it finishes
3)Rooting done ( For confirmation see if any Super User app has been installed )
4) If by chance it fails for the first time, give it another go. it won't harm your phone in any way. If you still face problem, click on show content below
Go to your C:/ Drive / User/Username/AppData/Roaming/ folder and delete the eRoot folder.
If it says cannot be deleted then open up task manager on your PC and kill bec.exe . Then delete eroot folder.
Still not working ? used the archived method to root 2011 Xperia here below the animated Xperia picture.

5) While posting in the thread for help, remember to give details. Don't just write > "it's not working, help please ".
"Confirmed working on" List
( Both Unlocked / Locked Bootloaders )
Xperia SL / S / ION / Acro S
Arc / Arc S
Pro
Neo V / Neo
Ray
Mini / Mini Pro

I tested on arc s .62, and it worked. Did you try to root your phone running .62 ?
If you can confirm that it's working for every firmware version, it's the best rooting script ever! Will link this in my guide asap!

Well rooting shouldn't wipe user data....but still make sure you have any kind of backup incase it does format!

Although It's confirmed working for every ICS build for every device.

Hi. I have the same problem with Xperia Tablet S (sorry I know - wrong forum).
Did you find any solution by flashing with SD card or so ???
I can't find the firmware for Android 4.1.1 for the tablet.
Thanx.
It didn't boot with keys, so SD is not useful.
