ANDROID KIT KAT USE LOWER RAM
IN SONY BLOG also was this entry, but I can not find it.
JB USE MORE RAM AND KIT KAT MINUS

all i can do is just wait and see.. :angel:
if there is an update for Xperia U, then just update it.
i am not hoping for kitkat too much.

What about XPERIA P ???!!
I see only Xperia U posters that make new threads of this !!

Please stop posting all this! That facebook page is a fake!! U see that on 8,467 likes! it is a copy of the kitkat offical page meant solely for spreading rumours! google never tells which device will get a software update. its the company's decision!
Morderator please stop this nonsense!
This is the official page:
https://www.facebook.com/kitkat?brandloc=DISABLE
it has got 18,962,594 likes against the 8,467 likes!-more than 200 times

It will be the best if they come out kitkat for xperia u, but if they don't, we still have xda. They are still the best!!! I have totally given up on waiting for updates.

if only they didn't had so many problems on ppl going custom with the warranty stuff.
they could even adapt a custom rom (with due authorization) as the "official"

ICS for Xperia P

You're going to love this!
ICS Upgrade for Xperia P will be here between 19th – 25th Aug ’12!!
https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?...95422139.15794.107416622618393&type=1&theater
Finally some good news for this day! Thank you!
Thats about the same time I was told for the US sold Xperia P - August 17th. Getting closer.
Sola
Does this mean we could import the rom to the Sola until it gets its turn? Technically it's the same phone CPU/GPU.. ^.-

If you're into that sort of thing, then yes I do believe you've bought the wrong phone. That's not to say the P will not get those roms eventually but I just think it's a very mainstream device and don't expect to see much by way of custom roms.
If you want to tinker with your device to that extent, then I think you should avoid purchasing mid range devices because it's unlikely there'll be too many devs who would get it to work with. It's already a chance with Sony in the first place so why take an even bigger chance with a Sony mid range device.

Android 4.2 Appearing on Sony Phones

(P.s. as per Google's indications, 4.2 would indicate the iterative release of Key Lime Pie, and I did not see a KLP thread.)
Yes, 4.2!
The Arc S particularly keeps appearing on 4.2. This makes me wonder how many devices are going to be updated next? Perhaps some 2011 devices will be updated along with 2012 ones.
Next is the matter of 4.2. In the article here:
http://www.xperiablog.net/2012/10/11/android-4-2-being-tested-on-the-xperia-arc-s/
they discuss why that could be. Perhaps it's some 'beta build of Jelly'. I really doubt that. Whether Jelly or Lime, something's definitely being tested.
More clues here: http://www.androidpolice.com/2012/1...w-phone-and-a-new-nexus-tablet-both-motorola/
My next few questions are:
1. What are the specs (again) of the Arc S which will tell more about specs needed for future Sony updates. (GSM Arena) http://www.gsmarena.com/sony_ericsson_xperia_arc_s-4134.php
2. What new features in Jelly/Lime would I especially look forward to (Android version history, Wiki) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Android_version_history#Android_4.0.x_Ice_Cream_Sandwich
3. WHEN might this happen? I think maybe a bit like last year, announce towards the end of the year for a rollout in Q1/Q2.
arc s neo v and ray prolly gets it because they all use the same build number , can maybe port to neo and arc
the mini's? well i hope they release for them too!
I just checked again and the Arc S is running on 512MB of RAM. This is good news for our phones...many phones *could* be updated potentially.
I'm scanning the Android version history to try and find some audio/visual improvements that I may like!! :victory:
"gapless playback", "multichannel audio"
I'm sorry, but please, please don't get overexcited. It's a UserAgent string. Anyone can modify it. I can make it read Android 5.0 on Xperia Nexus, so what, can we now think the Xperia Nexus is confirmed?

Owh yeah... i think sony is retarded cause every new phones they created has walkman features in it.. if all phones has walkman features, than there is no special about the walkman anymore. i mean, i bought LWW bcoz it has walkman features. but now, every sony new phones has walkman capabilities. what is the point of creating this http://store.sony.com/webapp/wcs/st...1&categoryId=8198552921644871536&N=4294940721 if a phone has the same ability too..

Xperia U's new sister, well sort of.

Sony's new midrange phone, the Xperia SP.
Video Ad: http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=pgA4YCAIGBI
Specs: http://www.gsmarena.com/sony_xperia_sp-5364.php
Just look at that. As an Xperia U owner, made me feel like my Xperia U would be crap now, I mean like overshadowed or something.
I immediately thought of replacing my U with it after it gets released lol. They've also made led bar control on the phone now.
I also liked the part where the led bar blinks while someone is calling.
So uh, thoughts, opinions and anything else!
I like the specs mate, very good phone. If i had the money i would get it def.
plz dun call phones as females...

Indian price is said to be expected around 25k which is nearly 2x as U This is more along the lines of a new Xperia P or S
i would go for SP better choice of chipset, snapdragon S4 but would have loved it if it were S4 Pro but you wont get everything for a cheap price.

You cant really say this, I know its a male infested forum, but thats just really sexist
Hybrid S, P and U ... They really should name it Xperia UPS, though someone would sue Sony immediately, hence SP
I like the spec and the light bar (the reason I bought XU), a touch of aluminum, but since SP is not a flagship, and Android 5.0 will come soon, I don't think SP is a wise bet ...

Still that wont b a fully functional port.... We hve jb by munjeni bt its also not a fully functional one
Some members of official cm team refused to support s4 which was exynos based (although rest of the cm team said they dont prior announce support)
Bt the fact is its extremely difficult to get things working without sources no matter which chipset or which developer.... Qualcomm rules for a reason and we know this.....

Hi
Thanks for making the thread.I was considering to make one about this.Well,I think it is something that everybody have known from long before.I also think that it is time to use those leaked source.Sony will try to avoid answering about them.I talked with a sony agent in the Xperia Care chat room and she was always trying to avoid answering my questions about them(Always saying"It's not sth we advise you-it'll void your guarantee" and things like this).I kept asking if there is any legal problem and she did the same thing(saying those things again...).It's a leak after all and no company would accept leaks(I guess sony will neither ban us nor permit us to use it-even If it has legal problems,they will not make things worse by summoning devs to court-It's a legacy device after all) .Now that the support is officially over,I guess Devs need to really think it over.Good luck

I guess they still did good with all mentioned phones above except for my x phone xu and xsola...which were officially stucked at 4.0
Rest received 2 major android upgrades .. 4.2 n 4.3 were minor(hence not considered) ones while 4.4 is too much to ask on a 2 yr old phone..
For 4.5.. xda is always there
Well we have past the 18 month update windows also so no surprise there

No one purchases a 2yr old phone.. Neither they are manufactured..
No sales fall.. No suicide
I already raged when Sony announced no JB for U. No news for me, actually...

It's nothing new to me too. I would happen. Sooner or later. But keep in mind that every company was doing that, is doing that and will be doing that...

Well Sony dont fall or anything because of this that we dont get 4.3 or even 4.4, they have more products then mobile phones, like televisions, game console's like ps3/ps4, camera, radio's, dvd players, sound systems, headphones etc etc etc.
Dont get pissed about that !!
Sony gives more support then any other manifracture like Samsaung/Apple
Peace

Apple actually give iphone 4 more to visual effect. And it lags the system. Features of ios7 does not go to iphone4. You need to buy a new iphone from apple to use the new feature.
Sony says: 'Let's sell cells as if they were candy, yes!'. And that's all, folks.

tnx bro
There will always be the people who only use official Android builds from the manufacturer, but they are not the type to be using XDA anyway.
I haven't used official builds since they stopped at Jellybean, which actually worked well enough, but my ST25 runs really well on Kitkat using an AOKP build, I have tried several 4.4.2 builds, most are still too buggy to use for daily drivers yet, the AOKP version being the exception so far.
I guess if you want your walkman app and other 'Sony' features you will just have to be happy with Jellybean. Seems a shame as 4.4.2 is the smoothest yet on my ST25 :laugh:
Thank goodness for the developers at XDA giving our Xperia U some hope.
