I've had my xperia S for over 2 months and haven't see any additions to the developement community. I'm really starting to consider getting rid of this device as the Roms available for it are lacking and the stock ones perform awful. If it wasn't for the CM9 release from FXP I would have parted ways a long time ago.
Hopefully we start seeing more developers jump board on this beautiful piece of hardware, but I'm starting to think the odds are slim to none..
Whats the deal?
What do you want?

Ics has been released on June 22. Thus, during the last 2 months, we have had:
- the official upgrade to ics
- not less than ics custom kernels with cwm recovery
- three custom roms based on stock ics
- cm 9.0, now stable
- cm 10, not ready but promising
Of course, nothing comparable to the nexus scene. But if you got a phone which has not been thought for the modding, you should not complain with the development community.

You forgot:
- MIUI
and we will get AOKP as soon as FXP Team releases CM device sources.
i think as of now we have enough custom roms, if we have 20-30 custom roms, man my phone wouldnt stop on flashing ,
and once the fxp team releases the cm sources, then we will have additional custom rom , (like semc debranding been waiting for this )
I am still on a stock ICS rom and I can't complain one bit.
The phone does what it says on the box, even my smartwatch works perfectly.
If you "expect" more than you have and are just going to complain because others are not making ROMS to suit your needs, then please... by all means sell it and get soemthing else.
Thanks all Sony fans and supporters!!
And live the Sony Corporation..waiting patiently for the future developement and releases :beer:

You can go to the Xperia ION subforum and see what is really lack of development.
Long story short: you're wrong. I have pre-ordered the Xperia S as fast as possible long time ago and let's just say I wouldn't belive that the development will go that far.

Question: are there any project brings ICS to Xperia S?
I dont see any project such as CM9 for ICS XPS
Thanks
Hy, for the moment we can root the phone but Doom have see a bug in bootloader and we can't boot a custom kernel with this bug.
If i'm not wrong...
Sent from my LT26i using XDA
The guys over at motorola milestone has released cm9 for it. The camera is working as well. The milestone uses an encrypted locked bootloader and stock kernel. It still can be done by some talented devs like DoomLord (provided he gets his XS).
Yeah! Custom roms can be made without unlock bootloader! My old MS running quite smooth with ICS CM9 rom! Kabaldan is a great devs!
Arc s and xperia play have a cyanogenmod stable did to see if dev's can port this.But Doomlord don't make rom if i have a good memory.

The XPS is a completely different device people. We'll need some proprietaries to get ICS running properly, and we still can't boot anything without Sony fixing the bootloader bug. It's not the same problem as the Droid 1/2/X/etc, completely different story here. So now we wait for a fixed bootloader - and for Sony's official ICS that's likely to go live early/mid May. Then Doomlord and the FreeXperia people can port something (and I'm ready/willing to help them). But now it's just no use, because we'll hardly get anything at least nearly usable in a month.
TL;DR Porting ICS right now will take more time and effort than waiting for official ICS to drop mid May and starting then.
AFAIK, Bin4ry and someone else are playing around with CM9 development for the handset, as far as I know.

Give me one good reason of why 2011 line is not worth upgrating. Don't forget that you hold in your hands a powerful computer which always can be better.
Yeah, I am very greatful too, I am just asking there why the 3 kernel is better than this or if we would have any benefits of upgrading. I am not asking whether they'll listen to us or not. XDA is a very big and powerful community. We (in some cases) represent the advanced users of their products. For me, if we have good reasons and Sony listens to us. I'll appreciate Sony very seriously.

Simple our phones are getting old now,Sony corporation is a business not a non profit organization mate.In xda dev's make stuff at their own free time & most are non profit too.
All comes to dollar bills mate,besides now 2011 series is getting replaced little by little with 2012 series.
ST-Ericsson advertised their NovaThor U8500 (that is running on Xperia 2012 line) with ICS and kernel 3.0.8
i think there is a big chance that the Xperia 2012 phones will get ICS with kernel 3.0.8
Xperia 2011 are old news, they got ICS 4.0.4 so i don`t think Sony will update them further
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CRewmDBkR8U
Indeed, it's not a non profit, but since they have the 3.0.8 kernel ready for some devices, it won't be pain for sony to use it for the 2011 line, I mean they are pro developers there with sources, equipment, it'll be a piece of cake for them to port.
Also they officially replied that they won't be upgrading, I saw it on sony's official blog. Nobody here said anything about this kernel though, if it is worth upgrading. Only pesimistic comments that this is impossible to happen.

Sorry to dissapoint you Shadow.... im from the arc thread, and according to FXP who is in charge of the cm development for the 2011 line up it will take aproximately 6 months to port the 3.0 kernel.... and besides Sony promised us 18 months of upgrades, Jelly bean was included in that, when (fake) rumors came that the facebook representative from sony uk said the 2011 line up wouldnt get jelly bean... they said it wasnt true, and now they say the wont update us? seems like they were toying with us, the only reason they actually gave us ics ( a really ****ty one with no much improvement from the gb sony rom) was because they were being presured by the 18 months of upgrades statement.
Yesterday a moderator from Sony team answered me at the official forum. About the Kernel 3.x
"Platform decisions made out of a complex number of parameters, involving things such as performance, price, component availability, timing etc.
When it comes to the kernel, we did actually investigate to release the 2011 products on a new kernel, but we found out it would have delayed the much desired SW releases since it takes time to trim a kernel to a stable state. We have also done a lot of patches to the kernel that we would need to migrate and that would have delayed the SW upgrades even more. It was simply a prioritization decision. For the new 2012 products we use a new kernel.
For more information and further questions regarding these things, please head over to our developer pages at http://developer.sonymobile.com/ ."

Hi guys with your great device Sony Xperia Series
please I want to know something about Xperia S
I will buy new device soon(I'm currently using huawei X6)but I have 3 Choice which made me confuse
1.Xperia S
2.Galaxy Nexus
3.Sensation XE
I know most powerful device is Xperia S than 2 other device I mention,,
but I looked into development thread and I just found some Custom ROM for Xperia S,not much
Please I want to know why Great Android Xperia S just have some Custom ROM,not much(most of I look is AOKP and Paranoid Android)
Tell me guys if you know
comparison this device with Arc S performance is so far away,but Arc S have Custom ROM more than Xperia S
Thanks much
We'll have AOKP soon(ish), not sure about Paranoid as most developers seem to hate it.
If I may know,,why AOKP Build so late?is still have problem with source or something?
Sent from my Spice Mi-410 using Tapatalk 2
because sony released the source for a short time ago (for ics)
developers are working hard on it, so i think a few weeks and development is going much faster!
Galaxy Nexus is what I recommend if you are interested in custom ROMS. Im very tempted to give up on Sony I almost give up on Sony Ericsson when they had poor upgrading with the Xperia Play but the community brought my back to the tables. But then i upgraded to the Xperia S and Xperia U but it just feels like ive downgraded because i love custom ROMS
If you love default android then get a Nexus. You are giving up speed, screen, and build quality but you gain the dev community that you crave. I personally had bought a Nexus but I returned it for my Xperia S. I am satisfied because there are enough roms to make me happy. You really don't need 10 roms that are essentially the same. Once we get a good release of cm9 and cm10 we should see more support. Also I love the default Sony apps.

Mostly because I'm a lazy ****. Team FreeXperia are working on CM9 and there is no reason to duplicate their work. Since they don't have the source publicly available, all I can do is wait.

I think so,,galaxy nexus have a lot custom ROM and mod
disadvantages nexus is very annoying me when Xperia S have all specs and features I need
but,,turn back,,Nexus is original Google build,thats make me consider twice

It's not Xperia devs, it's devs in general. Paranoid does stuff that it isn't supposed to do to the framework, so it is a very, very dirty hack, and most devs don't like dirty hacks.

Hi everybody,
At the 3rd of September, Sony releases the binaries for xperia s to support JBQ's Xperia S experiment.
So I was really happy about that, coz I thought that jelly bean is near.
I thought that now, that when they have the binaries and drivers, the only thing to do for Google is to implement these drivers into android source code, because vanilla Android doesn't need so much configuration, etc.
So my question how long you think it takes that we have vanilla on our xperia s?

I hope is not just an experiment because have JB in ours Xperia S will be very performant, in my opinion. Sony is usually close to developers.
It may be also a test: rumors talks about a Sony nexus.. it will be a big step..:victory:
Actually, AOSP development seems very slow, at least from what I've been seeing on the git. Don't expect the sony bins to speed that project up
That's what I'm scared about because when android 5.0 comes soon how long would that take to reach the xperia s (nexus) becomes the update..

What happens next depends on the outcome of the experiment.
When jellybean leaks or is officially released do you think there will be more devs working on custom roms?? Im ordering mine on tuesday no matter what tho. cant wait
Probably not. Already a number of devs working on things.
I would imagine that you will see a few new devs and roms when/if the first person figures out a reasonable way of converting N4 / ASOP roms over though.

The Base rom will probably be updated to 4.1 or 4.2 depending on what's released.
We probably won't see more devs immediately but, keep in mind Christmas is coming up so a lot of people will be getting new devices and have no free time till Christmas..
Then after Christmas people will have less to do, more time, and a new device to play with.

Great point. Plus, we really only need a few devs. Give me one that can compile CM10.1, one that handles AOKP and maybe a few that make some hybrids.
