The author of the article is misleading readers by saying "Sony Tablet S users can now install the latest Android 4.1 (Jelly Bean) firmware with just a click" when they should have said "may be able to", but only if and when Android 4.1 is released for the Sony Tablet S and if Android 4.1 can be successfully pre-rooted and installed using Condi's S.onyTablet.S [FLASHER] tool. The author obviously did not fully research Sony's plans for the Sony Tablet S or Condi's tool before he wrote the article.

The Bluetooth SIG (Special Interest Group) listed a new software version number for the Sony Xperia P (LT22i). Firmware version 6.2.A.0.269 is likely to introduce Android 4.1.2 Jelly Bean to the Xperia P, versus the current ICS firmware (6.1.1.B.1.89). We have not seen any firmware certified on the PTCRB website yet, but that doesn’t mean it isn’t coming, often firmware is certified after release. Sony previously said that the Xperia P will start to be updated from the end of March, so hopefully the above news means it is on track.

This is my first android device. I used the search option but didn't find anything useful since i have a chinese tablet. I have a "Chuwi V10" with android 4.1.1. I want to update it to 4.2 manually. How do i go about it? Thanks in advance!
You need to wait for manufacturer's updates (it's a chinese device... so don't expect too much).

Ah, ok. What if i root it? Can i do update it then?
No, you need a ROM specifically developed for your device.
I am interested in upgrading my 1st gen tablet s to jelly bean.
Can anyone say anything about how does the tablet perform after jelly bean update? Is it any better, is it worth the risk, cause I am a newb and don't want brick the device. Also any video to show the whole process?
Any help is appreciated.
even i am looking for this. any help would be appreciated
There are no Jelly Bean (Android OS Version 4.1.x) firmware releases for the Sony Tablet S. Android OS Version 4.0.3 Release 5a is the last firmware release for the Sony Tablet S. No future firmware updates are expected.
Thanks

I use an XTZ and I own four STSes which are used by two granddaughters, a nephew, and a girlfriend, and none of us experience performance problems. I maintain all of the tablets and assure they are up-to-date and have clean installs. Tablets, like automobiles, perform well if they are regularly maintained. I use Performance Booster which provides a small increase in performance. I also use ES Task Manager and SD Maid Pro to keep apps under control and clean. I also limit the number of installed apps; fewer install apps equals better performance. If an app is not being used on a regular basis, the app gets uninstalled. And I stay away from most free apps because I have found free apps tend to cause the most problems.
you didn't mention one thing
That all your Sony Tablet S's are Rooted

Hi Cat,
My daughter has a Sony Tablet S and it is working fine but she thinks Jelly Bean would help with using apps like One Note.
I have been looking at find that the developer "Condi" had some links that kept saying update to Jelly bean unofficial but in the screen shots I still see version 4.0.3 R5A.......
have you seen any updates to this talk??
thanks in advance!
Clint
Yeah, condi's app only gives you 4.0.3 for *NON-XPERIA* Tablet S's.
4.1 JB is only for *XPERIA* Tablet S. Stupid naming scheme by Sony TBH. Unfortunately Sony locked the bootloader from the very beginning, so we aren't going to get good 3rd party support.
What to do with rooted Sony Tablet S?

My primary motive for rooting my Sony Tablet S was to be able to upgrade to JB. But I guess I didn't do my research before rooting my STS. Now, what can I do with a rooted STS that I couldn't with an unrooted one?

• Updates for Android 4.4 / Kitkat
• Various PlayMemories Online improvements
• Software performance improvementss
don't think is a mistake ... and is not possible 4.4 coming for our tablets ( right now )... when sony update every 3,4 months ...
is a simple update ... to the future maybe
Current info days 4.4 will come around March... Mid to end. That's just a guess from DooMLoRD

Hello................!
I have posted two treads here about the "M1" i didn't get any satisfy answers. And main point is Every other Huawei products getting EMUI 3.0 or 2.3 update with android firmware upgrade but there are no updates for MediaPad M1? When i search M1 stock firmware it's very hard to find? It's very new product introduced with X1.
But what happened, i think is huawei abandonment this product. So bad.....!

But there is! :good: I just installed 4.4.2 official firmware on my s8-301l, which i found from here: h**p://pan.baidu.com/s/1i3Fxuh3
no issues so far, and it's much smoother than 4.2.2.
Thanks for your reply....!
You can find your s8-301L firmware here but s8-301U got nothing. Only i found updates for s8-301L & s8-301W only.
