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...

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.

They sure are, but we won't know how it really works until we can test it on devices and that we can't do without the bootloader fix.

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.
thanks all to replying my question
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
well,,now I can make wisely device choice for me
thanks for a lot all

Soon Xperia S will get more ROMS because it is selling very good
And...how much ROMS need a human?
For me they are 4: STOCK MODIFIED ROM(KASPEED),CM10,Miui,AOKP
If you will buy a nexus what rom you will use?its the same we just need 4 roms....(3 in situation of nexus )

Yes mate,,in case,I will try out xperia S,,specs and features so promising than nexus
Honestly,,I interest nexus from screen design without softkey button. But comparing performance and other features with Xperia S made me reconsider,,
About ROM,,I very Interesting on ParanoidAndroid(I'm currently use this ROM on my device )
But there are person who tell me the Xperia devs hate ParanoidAndroid ROM

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.

as the ics update for our fone is out will we be having costum roms for our fone ....... also i would also like to do a bug report about theupdate .... the notification sound doesnt work ........ plzz give me a fix asap ......
Ehm. The update for our lovely Xperia P is not a custom one made by XDA-Developers but by Sony. And if I know Sony right they don't care about XDA-Developers.com So I don't think that they see your bug repport. And second. Our developers has a life like you and me. Some maybe has kids so they aren't sitting all day long on the computer What about YOU fixed the issue instead and released it

I have the same thinking about a lack of developers in Xperia P Forum since its very good terminal and we dont have a thing in rom options.
Hope it wont be of course, because of not sucess model.
I had a Galaxy Ace (lower spec phone), and since come up years ago it has a rom every day. Really desire xperia devs could give a try on this terminal!
Cheers!

I'd prefer a fully working CM and AOKP. And MIUI over a zillion similar custom roms. Samsung phones get a lot of custom roms because their stock FW is pathetic

same here bro had an ace ...... its got jellybean rom also now .... waiting badly for a rom for our device
I Think there is Some Few Dev. at Xperia P.
I have been checking the Xperia sola as a new phone. Sadly there is NO development for this device. Some pre rooted roms are nothing. I would love cm on this device. After that I could port miui myself, as I have done for the wfs. And still gingerbread, wtf?
Such a great phone and then this scene, bummer.
Sent from my WFS
Seance Xperia P has ICS and is rooted without unlocking bootloader, not need for custom rom! Phone is fast enought with stock rom! If you need customization, use launchers!
hey work jelly bean for xperia p?
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 very soon, i think FXP has done a good work yet on porting the cyanogen 10 to our device, so maybe they can start from this point to develop it... but i don't have seen a lot of rom and kernel for our phone like others Xperia serie's phones... maybe it's due only to the youthness of NXT line..

I don't know when the official release will be, but CM 10 will release its new M1 versions. In the moment we have a stable alpha-version and that's a big step too. But my opinion is that Sony is just inconfident about the official JB -.-

It is the 18th of September now- where are the sources?
Can we download them?
It is just an experiment to see how hard is to implement another device on the AOSP project. Not that updates will come from Google.

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..

May i know what is the price at which you are getting it????
AW: [Help] Wanna buy Xperia Sola
I think that the sola is one of the best bang for the buck you can get. Stock Sony fw is pretty good and if that's not enough, you can go for cm or miui.
When you buy it, check if unlock allowed =yes! That's important.

really appreciate yur replies guys..... would be getting it in 2weeks time, was just afraid cos of lots of complains about tha phone.
i prefer stock/MIUI rom, heard CM is buggy & CM9.1 is old. 10.1 is tha latest i guess.
Xperia Sola is $246 here....
Sola is Great !!!!!!.

Congratulation, brov! Finally you move from Sony Ericsson phone to SONY phone:good:
I myself own Xperia P. If you dont care about JB update then go for Xperia sola. But I prefer P over sola.
Sent from LT22i via Tapatalk
Save up a bit more and get the P or something else.
I just sold my Sola. Barely got half the value I got for it even though it's a 6 months phone. The problem is that it is buggy as hell and needs CM9 to even function properly (Talking about notifications and calls here.) Check the forums, there's a particular bug where you have to wait like 10 seconds before you can accept a call.
The lack of support from Sony is also disappointing. ICS was released only late last year (Everyone has moved on to JB), and JB will never even come for this phone.
The floating touch was a good idea, but it was not... Useful. Looks cool as hell, and had so much potential, but it is more annoying than useful. It's tendency to be activated when you're charging means it's very difficult to type when your phone is being charged.
I just need a phone to function as a phone, and it can't even deliver that to me.
really appreciate yur comments guys..... me too love Xperia Sola but less RAM & no more updates, Sony really fumbled!!!
lots of Complains bout Xperia Sola. big hug to yhu guys!
ZN6 i felt like moving on dats why i sold it. maybe will waiting till February ending or March to get phone den & maybe i would be getting Xperia P!
