I have seen many ICS stock version floating around, when I upgraded from GB I was offered 6.1.1.B.1.10. Just out of curiosity is there any more stable/efficient version available?
It would appear GB is far better than ics on the U

I'm considering downgrading my Gf's U to Gingerbread. She's complaining her phone is slow and the Phone and Messaging Apps open up with a big delay. I've flashed a custom ICS rom last weekend.
Are there any custom Kernels voor Gingerbread on the Xperia U, though?

How about you read thread of that rom, and see what it brings new to you. Then make your own choice if that is what you need from rom?
i suggest you to stick to the stock rom . it is the most stablest and is official too .
Yeah stick with the stock ROM, root and with a little tiny tweak you will have the best experiences ever ....

I don't know too much about rooting for ICS. I rooted my phone since it's GB .
Tweak some little things: root and uninstall not used apps (some app you can't do uninstall the common way), install some useful apps, go to settings and change some options for battery life and performance (disable Bravia Engine, FB inside Xperia, location services, some app's sync...), do backup and enjoy.
After some time racing for custom ROM, I ended up missing the stable GB ROM for Neo/ Neo V , but now I'm happy enough with KA 20.1 ROM.
Hello.
I am making this thread, because there are too many roms here and I can't find out which one to pick.
I want some stable ICS rom for my Mini ST15, because I am tired of waiting for the official ICS, and I would also want to have the additional settings to turn off the auto brightness...
I suggest the stock rom with draco_ag's mods and bloatware removed.

real ics 5.2 is stable and fast using it with mesa 1.6 kernel and every thing is good
agree, real ics 5.2 is superb, use with mesa 1.6 kernel. but just a suggestion if u want stock, better wait till nxt week for new firmware release by sony.
Real ICS is for Live with Walkman......
nope it's for all 2011 xperia phones via aroma installer

If you're on a stock rom it's normal that your ray isn't smooth and doesn't auto flash. Sony (in my opinion and many, many others) failed to develop a good ice cream sandwich(android 4.0.x) update. My ray isn't smooth either. They surely added some great new features and improvements compared to gingerbread(android 2.3.x), but the speed, smoothness and so on aren't what they are supposed to be. If this realy bothers you, you can downgrade your ray back to gingerbread, use a custom rom or install some tweaks that improves speed etc. But to do this your phone must be rooted. Further i don't think there's much you can do
The absence of auto-flash is normal because, well, to be precise, our Rays only have torches which are either on or off. So basically when you want to enlighten your environment during picture taking the only option you have is to just turn on that damned lantern and blind everyone unfortunate enough to be there

i'm not at Stock GB. please tell me how i can improve this stock room with some tweaks ...i am ready to root. but i want to stay with this room...if you know about a good room like this then refer me pls
You're from Bangladesh?
If you bought the phone a week ago, you should be using GB, not ICS.
Flash it to ICS and root.
And if you want it to be really smooth, use custom roms.
And Ray doesn't have a flash, just an LED.
I'm from Bangladesh too
You can PM me about any problem.

From your last post, look like you know some stuff so I assume you're on techy side of wildfire user.
But the ICS 4.0.4 for Ray is official from Sony and it's run pretty good, there's no reason to stay with GB. You should try update to .587 before trying anything else, large chance there's no need for anything else but newer stock rom from Sony. Do the update as Sony instruction first.

Hi all,
I just installed stock ICS via ftf file.
I only want the following modifications;
1. Delete unwanted apps.
2. Status bar with toggles.
3. Performance wise smooth.
4. That's it.
I have watched the tutorial given in xda by nero to cook the ROM but I just need above modifications. Any help or ideas?

I dont understand why u would wanna stay on Stock modified when there are soo many stock based roms which have all that u've mentioned and more..
I know tht ur not new to custom roms cause i've seen you in various rom threads..im just curious as to why you would want a modified stock ics.. when custom roms are better..
I have root access and boot loader unlocked. I know there are a lot of cusyom ROMs available but I couldn't find any stable ROM on which I could stick for a long time. Every saturday night, I am whether updating the ROMs with fixes or totally new looks. However I appreciate and respect devs work and their efforts. If anyone could tell me any ROM which is already shrinked in size by deleting useless apps and performance wise smooth but not mosified so that I could install then install MODs for my choice? Any possibility?

Wow, I didn't expect such answer. Any way, I was only looking for the ROM which have NO BUGS at all (at-least for me) and Sony ICS stock ROM doesn't have bugs I guess (or may be I am wrong but I didn't face any in 3 weeks) but yea, performance is not good (lagging and all that i.e. NOT SMOOTH). So, I was only looking for this kind of ROM i.e. No Bugs, Smooth, and stable.
But any way, I have finally found the one with only 1 or max 2 bugs which would be fixed soon (I hope) and applied some MODs of my choice and I can use my Neo V without any -ve things!!!
Thanks to all!!!
Hello to everybody, I want you help me to looking for a rom that looks like jelly bean (android 4.1) for my wt19 it boatloader is locked, and my current rom is xNTX something like that, and i want to know if there is any rom to test it, of course about jelly bean.
Just install any ICS modded ROM then search on Theme and app section, you will find some JB mod for ICS.
btw, NXT already have ton of mods.
