Ultra & Android 4.4... show me that lollie pop! - Sony Xperia Z Ultra

It's Saturday afternoon here in New Zealand. Finally not on call for SAR, so I'm sitting in the sun having a Corona on my deck. Boom!!
Then I gots ta thinking...
With Kitkat 4.4 on its way thanks to freeXperia dev's @FXP, @kali... what are you looking forward to most? I'm really buzzing about seeing RAW images coming. Yeah I know... simple things eh! But seriously this means we can finally see if its a hardware issue with the Ultra's camera. I'm so hoping its not, and the images will look tasty!!
So what are you looking forward to most with the 4.4 CM11 release coming very very soon...??
But also what are you doing when you reply to this... I'm just interested... anyone else having a beer on their deck??

This is not Facebook

Don't know what to look for in kitkat, other than RAW photos.
And no not sitting on the deck having a beer, I was out at one of the predator fenced 'islands' doing some lizard survey work getting rained on - you know that stuff that falls on this side of the Kaimai range and not on your side.
About to have a cold one now though.

It is now. pissing down.... good to see someone has a sense of humor in XDA though.

You guys do realize that a RAW image from this camera would look horrible ?

couldn't look any worse than stock camera on auto
there will still be atleast some noise in poor light and in the blacks, but at least it wont be all soft ans fuzzy looking

I don't wanna disturb the party but RAW is only partially implemented so chance we'll get it is very small...

I know, but we can live in hope for 4.4.1 or .2
@krabappel2548 have you seen better battery life in the Z1 with 4.4?

RAW is always horrible. However being able to manipulate white balance, colour saturation, contrast, and sharpness ourselves, and not leaving it to Sony will always look better. or at least the way we want.

And the official from Sony in Q1 | 2014, probably wont exist anyway...
surely CM11 would offer that for the Z1/U?

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?

The official Sony Nexus hype thread

So, there are pics now showing something the OP calls Nexus X. I'm not trying to do a full blown analysis here, at least not before I check with my sources, but it doesn't look obviously Photoshopped (at least, not that obviously) and it's quite similar to the Xperia T, which already got some really nice open source support with most of the CodeAurora stuff suddenly working out of the box. So, let the hype begin.

Hey bro K900
I too read about it today morning in phone arena.
So if this is true we will be getting multiple nexus devices in end of the month
And according to your source
Hope we get jellybean at the same time
Thank you for all your support here
It looks pretty good to me, if these rumours are correct, we just need the specs to be good to.

SHUT UP AND TAKE MY MONEY!
Seriously, slap an Xperia logo at the bottom, front side and I'm already sold.
This looks even better than the Xperia S to me which I'll probably sell if this phone is for real.
Yeah, that's not real, and I'm putting my two cents into the That Would Be Fugly donation jar.
It's a BIG FAKE, look at the Sony logo, lol and look at the Google logo too, and the shadow near hdmi, BIG LAWL
And we know that sony have a technology called 'floating touch' but no floating phone (second pic) GIGA BIG LOL :laugh:

Lets hope its not the only nexus. The LG nexus is ugly and I very much dislike LG phones.
I remember reading last time that Sony have no plan of releasing a nexus phone as it will conflict with their Xperia branding(or whatever).
Maybe they changed their mind and that's awesome news. Xperia Nexus, come to us!

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

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.....

4.4.1 bugs? which is now fixed with 4.4.2 as on nexus 4?
http://www.androidpolice.com/2013/12/11/android-4-4-2-is-now-available-in-the-aosp-repositories/
Let's get a rom dump and get cooking .
This is not 4.4.1. This is not 4.4.2. This is 4.4. The launcher is either Ice Cream or some other reincarnation from days past. Security settings force close. Passwords and sync are problematic.

The launcher is indeed the Kit Kat launcher. The Google Experience Launcher is exclusive to the Nexus 5 for now, so every other Nexus device (Nexus 4, Nexus 7, Nexus 10) and GPE devices are running a more plain version. Nothing stops you from manually installing GEL though. Once you've installed GEL, you'll get the transparent navigation bar and statusbar.
BTW, have you talked to Krabappel? You should dump that bad boy ASAP. We are all waiting for you

Just remember past GNote 1 'course' when it get JB leak, where a guy from vietnam has the dump while the 'bad boy' is in germany, about the same local time with the belgium. Not expected it happen with the Z ultra but it is : )

God damn it. Can't a man get some sleep around here? Do a factory reset. Also, from 1-10, how experienced are you with Android? I'm thinking about dumping and stuff like that.

Yhea mine has given me the same security bug. Can't go into security settings with out it force closing, which means I can't side load apps. :/

First of all, shouldn't you be sleeping right now? Or is Sweden following its own clock? Second, I wouldn't know how experienced he is, and that's why I'm asking. Plus he shouldn't really care that much about the small bugs since his first priority should be to dump that sucker and upload it
He may have dumped it already and he may have a lot of experience. I don't know.
