Where are all the developers ? - Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go

WOW I thought the xperia S would have loads of development going on, but it seems as though development on this device is restricted to a few. We only have a handful of roms to play with and development is slow, if i could I would help but I have no idea how to and only mess with stuff like miui.
How come there are no developers, i thought this was a top end device ?
I only changed from an Iphone 4s two weeks ago and I am already thinking of swapping it for a S2 or a One X or will development get any better ??

Quality over quantity my friend.
We have really good developers.

You don't get what I mean. I mean, what exact themes and ROMs would you like to see? Explain it to me in bullet points.
Example:
I want a ROM that has:
Unicorns
Swag
Notification toggles
Swag
And some unicorns

i'm working on miui jelly beans, but no promises also i personally feel most themed roms are boring, maybe i'm alone on that one

The Hybrid thing is what attracts me. I love the bottom status bar, but have hate the Facebook its such a low dpi. Love the Settings and Gmail layout, but hate the phone app, or launcher size.

A Rom that's fast
Looks good
Free of bloat
Themed slightly nice notification icons
Tweaked
Stuff like that I can theme but I can't make flashable zips

Paranoid is one of the nicest Roms to have imho. Used it on my moto defy and loved every bit of it. I'm just waiting for the cm9 release for the U so that i can port Paranoid on the U. Screen is small but should be good.

Jelly Bean for i717

Hello all.
Been reading through the development posts and can't find a stable ROM jb with s-pen apps.
I mean really jb for the note.
Is there such a thing?
Reason s-pen and not Papyrus is I have a Wacom Cross pen and have gotten used to the eraser which only the s-pen utilities seem to work with.
Thanks for tolerating this newbie.

Stock Samsung apps won't be on jb unless Samsung release a jb ROM. All the jb ROMs are aosp based liked cm.
Some apps may work with that pen eraser though, don't have one to test.

Oh I'm no genius. My smarts about things that pertain to this site however come from reading and searching and learning. Which, oh my, happens to be the golden rule of this site! Imagine that.
I didn't mean my post to cause strife.
I just need a stable ROM because I use my phone for work so I can figured some of you might have real world experience.
I didn't see a post or survey that listed JB and stability.
Thanks all and sorry for even asking.

If you want a stable non stock ROM go with cm9 official. If you're more adventurous try one of the three JB ROMs.

Just had a good look at the threads, seems we have the same issue that was stopping the use of the Xperia lockscreen on every other device other than xperia devices, it's only ported to fellow xperia devices, no one ever ported it to be able to be used on any device the way the home launcher was ported. >.<

Haha personally i wouldn't want you to if its just a matter of changing launchers on say speed rom or something simple like that. Im a fan of sense but im using speed rom with the xperia launcher just still missing all my widgets like my modified lock ring logo, time and weather, twitter, battery, calculator, calendar, so much more in one.
But if you can get that lock screen hmm I wouldn't mind it being a rom as well

I have used both and craigtut put a lot of thought, effort and hard work into getting these ROMs to look and act like AOSP as much as possible. I'm actually thinking about going back to JB Fusion but I'm not sure if I want to rid of sense right now.

Wanting to have a touchwizz rom on a sony phone doesnt necessarily mean we want another device,that wasnt even asked, so use your brain before saying such things.

Have been on beans and cm10.1 for last few months. Love it. Can't stand low volume issues.. Wouldn't mind giving that halo thing another opportunity but don't know whats stable that has it. Any tips ?

low volume is an issue for aosp in general, heard it's better in 4.3 but they're not stable yet. If you like Halo try a floating Windows tw rom, it's like Halo on steroids.

Halo has like changed how I use my phone. I can't live without it since i first flashed paranoid android on my gnex. I have been daily driving paranoid android 4.3 for near a month now and it's amazing. If you like aosp Roms that's the way to go IMO. Pacman is another good option. For tw id recommend jelly beans or the new Jedi x. If I were you I'd just flash around like I did until you find something that fits your needs. For me its paranoid android with devil kernel
Hope this helped

lol you knuckleheads...... On paranoid 4.3 . Enjoying halo big time. Thinking about switching to an older version so I can enjoy something that's more complete. It's brilliant though. Guys are really doing a great job. At times the PIE hidden nav bar gets in the way of my launcher buttons, but i made it smaller and it seemed to help a big.. still in the way at times... I love the PIE full screen mode...
