[Q] Buy the xperia sola? - Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go

Hello guys, i had sony live with walkman, but he broke.
Now, i liked xperia sola, but, on XDA xperia sola development have little custom roms, so, with the arrival of ics on sola, roms will emerge as there are on other devices? like xperia ray, live with walkman and others that have much custom roms...
sorry by my english...

In next time CM9.1 will come to our sola For sure in Future will come more Developing for the sola i think, but not as much as for the XperiaRay or the XperiaS :/ The XperiaS is widespread and the sola not, it's more a "low active" device i think but ROM's are not all! The important think is that you have a smartphone which you really like and not a smartphone with that you can change everyday to a new ROM!
And sorry for my bad English

Ok, you´re right, arriving the ICS on sola is already a great step i think... but, some good custom rom´s are also great...

Do not go for it. Buy any other brand. The development for U,P and Sola is like zero. Even after ICS i don't think there'll be any good development. Go for sAmsung device. I know they're ugly and all but the development is awesome.

Nonsense !
There is no sense in developing for GB because ICS is right behind the corner.
After getting ICS there will be plenty of ROM's ! U and P are the same phone, only differences are screen size and ram therefore every rom that comes to P can be ported to U in no time.
Samsung devices are crap in matters of build quality.

Yeah? I have a galaxy s i9000 right with me atm. A 2010 phone, running JB perfectly! So yeah for me its way better than my 2012 PoS xperia U!
And fyi i said that because the u,p and Sola are based on a completely new board. The development isn't guaranteed.

OK man, you think xperia sola will be many custon rom´s after ICS? I´m still a lot of fear about launch custon roms on sola, because i like custom roms... but i need a new smartphone and de xperia sola is very good phone.... cost X benefit

If you like it, buy it. There will be plenty of Roms.
Same happened with my Atrix. came to a NEW board and now its highly developed
Good luck !
I just got the xperia U today, awesome phone !

I own a galaxy note and yes the development in that board is astounding. With the Sola, I'd wait til ICS comes out and see if development picks up, if it's that important to you. I got a Sola as a backup device and I can tell you that I'm extremely happy with it. For my requirements, it's very reliable and cost effective. It runs games and apps flawlessly. temple run doesn't lag! Lol

Xperia U is nice, but doesn´t have micro sd slot, i put many musics, videos and games... só because that i prefer the sola...
I think I'll risk buying the xperia sola. I´m not a maniac chance rom, but, I like to put roms that improve the performance, add to quick panel, for example...
Thank you for all answers...

The last time i use a custom rom is on my x10 mini .
For me the custom rom is for those phone which cant get official update .
I don care about the fancy UI thing as you already can do it by installing launcher pro etc
The ICS on xperia P which using same chip with sola is running more than decent .
So it probably does not need any custom rom at all . At most some clean version of stock rom without bloatware .
Just my opinion .

IF...
if you want to have your phone updated as fast as it can be you should buy google backed smartphone like galaxy nexus, companies using android are not to keen on making hasty updates to already sold phones so its better to stay close to the source of android development. If i could get my money back from my Sola i would do so and then i wouldn't hesitate to save some money and buy nexus or sgs II (which used in good shape are like 20-30% more expensive). I should know to not trust Sony in making the ideal phone for me (it was, on paper..) nevertheless its a good phone but in that price range its purchase ain't reasonable IMO.
Since I started using it there were no positive surprises, just the bad ones for ex. you can't make folders in the main app menu, I can't comprehend why on home screen folders can be created, but in app menu you can not make them so with a lot of apps its one giant mess. other trivial example is the Sony's ICS rollout, which is very sluggish and as far as Sola is considered i think it might be the last major update to its firmware.
For me its 5.5/10 in terms of overall satisfaction of owning it.

[Q] Choosing a New Phone, need help

Hi everyone .. i'm selling my SGA soon and looking for a new phone .. can you pls help me on choosing ? .. i'm looking for a phone near galaxy ace and i found SE Xperia Ray .. is it a good choice ? if not, can you suggest anything ? ..
xperia neo v?
if your in tight budget its roughly the same price as ray, but with bigger screen.
or bump up budget and get xperia sola.
Ray isn't a bad smartphone. The screen is a little bit smaller than Ace but camera is absolutely amazing. Upgradeable to Ice Cream Sandwich is another pros of it. I agreed with the second floor, if you could, get Xperia Sola instead. If higher, then get a Xperia P.

thx for the replies .. but im worried about the development on the new devices .. wouldn't it take some time before developers can make custom roms/kernels for the new phones ? ..

It only depends on device's sell numbers and/or people interest about it. If lots of people buy a phone and ask for custom roms, sooner the roms will be out.

[Q] [Confusion]_Xperia U_should buy !?

Hi,
As subject says.
I am having right now white xperia mini pro But i am planning to buy Xperia U. Should I buy???
would u suggest to buy? if not may u would lik to tell my why
I will be really thankful if u help me, i m really confused
The only real differences are the Software and the design.
My mom got an Xperia U and it's really awesome, the only downsides are the camera (bad in darkness) and no MicroSD card slot.
The Xperia U has a very beautiful design and a camera shutter button. The One V is thin and simple but the chin is very ugly and so unneccesary.
On the software you'll have to tell yourself, I personally like the Sony UI and Sony has some great apps, but also a lot of bloatware, I've only had Xperia Phones so I haven't had a TouchWiz or Sense phone, but from what I've seen I think that Sense is really ugly EXCEPT for Sense 4 (I think the One V has Sense 4) which is actually really beautiful and ICS optimized, also the Xperia U won't get ICS for a few months but if that doesn't concern you then I recommend the Xperia U.
Here are video reviews of the UIs

I won't recommend xperia U.Personally I don't have it.My friend recently bought it and he regrets it.The main draw backs are no support of Devs(atleast for now).No ICS out of the box.Although sony promised an update we don't know when(correct me if I'm wrong)
So a better choice would be (according to me) Galaxy Nexus.It has got the best dev support.You get "instant" updates.And stock experience is what I like.So add a few bucks get Gnex.Only down side is bit a lag in 3d games but better than Xperia U.And other alternative is keep your xperia mini and get the Nexus 7 tablet if u aren't committed to a phone .
Hope I helped You.Think twice before buying

I was gonna recommend Galaxy Nexus too but it's a little more expensive.
You're right, Xperia U has a small community, but it's still pretty new and Sony Mobile isn't that big in the US, mostly sold in Sweden and Japan. Also Gingerbread SUCKS but if you're patient you can wait for ICS, and this guy just got ICS for his Xperia Mini so he's used to GB.

I think Gnex is not in India i guess, correct if i am wrong.
The phones just launched and the dev support will be there slowly i think.
Out of the Box Ics is not a importnt thing when u can get it by updating later or sooner
I already got dell streak with 5inch screen and ipad. so i guess i wont go for gnex7 tab

Well you could always hope for a direct Jelly Bean upgrade, but Sony are so lazy with skinning Jelly Bean so I wouldn't think so.
But Jelly beans on Xperia U .......eehhhhh
wen Ics update decreases the RAM then i think JB will kill it. i mean JB will be requireing alot space.

WHY?

WHY doesnt xperia S get some roms and kernelS?
Other devices like , Arc and Arc S , have ton of roms , but xperia S doesnt
Even xperia mini has alot of roms , why is xperia S so limited??
its because the S is to new and the devs are limited at time... it will change in the near future
Who cares about the amount? It´s all about the quality in my opinion. Having FXP working hard on both cm9 aswell as cm10, we sure have that. MIUI is allso a high quality rom, that is extreamly smooth and still have most of the usefull stock apps, best of all it works those that don´t want to unlock their bootloader.
If you could have 10 OK kernels or 1 great kernel, which would you go for?
I'd prefer the one.
And by the way, you don't count development support with the amount of ROMs and kernels, you count it by the quality of ROMs and kernels

What ROMs do you want? No one whining about quantity managed to answer this question before.

I found cm9 to have problems with the brightness , its low even when its on the highest level ,and cm10 doesnt have a camera app , i really need camera , i know miui is cool , but i want more stuff ... :fingers-crossed:
the stuff will come... CM9 is Stable, for GB the KA Rom is great, ICS and JB is just beginning with developing, they are a couple of great kernels... for that SXS has not much users like HTC oder Samsung devices, and just a couple of active Developers... its great what the do - and as i said, the device is relative new, and in the future there will give a lot of cool stuff - i mean, the SXS is official CM and MIUI supportet - that means a Long Tearm Support

I'll have AOKP ICS for you in a week. Paranoid porting is on the way. JB fully working depends on Sony.
There is much development for the XS.. there are 3 good kernels 2 fully working stockbased roms, CM9,CM10 ... Aokp is coming what do you want? Do you want the best rom ever seen in just one day? that wouldnt ever happen because developers are not better than other people and the most have a job or anything else

[REQ] JB drivers for sony 2011 models

Hi guys, seems sony is not going to support us and not going to update our phones to the latest Jelly bean android os. Looking around the thread i see the only problem with sony not updating to jb is with the drivers for jelly bean for our phones, i also found out that making the drivers is not a impossible task but a very hard one ( seems X8 has no problem running JB as devstaff said ). I on behalf of all the owners of 2011 xperia devices kindly request all the great developers here in this forum to join togeather to develope drivers for these devices, pls guys help us keep our great phone RAY up-to date.
As far as I know it's NOT an impossible task (because nothing is impossible), but our developers have to deal with reverse engineering and believe me concerning drivers it's a very complicated thing. Too much effort and time put with minimal or no gain at all.
I remember WM 6.5 ROMS for HTC Touch HD whose support was so quickly dropped by HTC and we, simple folk, didn't get the desired 6.5 update. So there were cooks and lot's of 6.5 Blackstone ROMS but, as genius as they were, developers didn't manage to get them work full throttle because, guess what, of them blasted drivers!
So the answer to your question is probably "no"..
am i missing the point of this thread?
there is CyanogenMod 10 jb which supports well most 2011 handsets - CyanogenMod the best you can have on the xperia ray.
i too have an xperia ray and was very unhappy with the original Sony bloat - the phone constantly crashed, rebooted, froze up - you name it, it made no fun at all. after throwing it around out of anger, i put myself together and installed CyanogenMod 9 at first, all previous errors were gone spontaneously. now a month or two ago i started to move to CyanogenMod 10 and guess what, it works great - running android 4.1.2. i'm anxious to install the latest fxp146 which will be online soon.

Xperia X8 support stopped with 2.1, but they have jelly bean, so it's not impossible as you say. If the developers wish they could do it for ray too.

Ya man CM is awesome, but it dosen't contain the awesome picture quality of the sony ics camera, there was a picture preview glitch in CM. I'm saying that it would be great if developers could make the drivers for ray and make a debrand engine of sony jb version it will be fuc**in awesome thats all mate.
Well. Only sony has to do this. No developer is able to build drivers. We can port ones as FXP do. And see what is haappening. You dont ahve a full working and cool JB. SO you will never will. There is no engineer that knows sonys hardware and would like to be part of xda and share. No possible way

Then can you tell me how xperia x8 having only 600mhz processor runs jelly bean so smoothly, with its software support stopped by sony in android 2.1 foryo. There is a way, the devolpoers could do it, i personally think if the FXP,AOKP,PA join hands they could do it

It seems you do not fully understand how drivers are developed. And with x8 devs were just lucky to get hands on something similar which they adapted for this xperia model. Hell, you can have legendary HTC HD2 running Android and WP7 smoothly but you won't find not a single driver created from the ground up by our XDA tech gurus! So I repeat, what you suggest is very complex and most likely impossible.

We need good devs, like Nobodyatall to help us port drivers and more.
Maybe we should start a donation to Naa to help us? Cuz nAa is a superior dev, he made 2.2, 2.3, 4.0, 4.1 for the X8, and the X8 only runs eclair on stock.
Is my idea good? Should we ask nAa for help?
Another idea is to port DesireHD roms because the HW is almost the same, or maybe Xperia J?
Nothing is impossible, we just need good developers thats good at working with drivers.

[Q] Xperia Mini - Xperia Ray

Hello all great people ! Sorry for opening a new thread, but i would like your opinions.. Tomorrowi am going to change my Xperia Mini for an Xperia Ray for 20-30 €....is this change good? Or maybe shouldn't i do this, and keep my Xperia Mini?
Thanks in advance.
Actually Xperia ray is better than mini in every aspect but buying a 2011-line model in 2013 is a bit weird...Anyways please don't create these kinds of threads in general section
Best Regards,
AJ
Dont miss the ICON FARM!
For 20/30€ it's okay, but remember ray is an old phone, too!
Have fun with your new phone :good:
Have at least dual core phone those both are single core with limited ram 512 user available 390 only if u r sony fan

xperia ray is better. if you're not sure, compare in geekaphone.com and you'll see the difference.
Thank you all guys for your help. I really appreciated every answer.

Thanks in advance.

why do you want to go to another phone that has a same specification? both of them use 512mb ram only and single core processor. i think it will be outdated soon.

I sold my Arc to get a Ray and so glad I did, I think it (Ray) will be the only Phone I've ever owned that I won't be selling on as it's a gorgeous little device that does everything I need, although will still be updating to a new Xperia ASAP, just not sure which, the Z is a bit big for me and if Sony stays with the current trend of releasing mini tablet sized Phones then I'll happily stick with my Ray.

Sadly, with 1ghz single core cpu, ray will never run ubuntu mobile. And also 512mb ram makes me little bit disappointed. but overall with that price , ray offer a good spec.
