Xperia U jellybean? - Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go

Hey I wanna ask if there will be JB for our xperia u
I read somewhere that JB will be available on 2013 is that correct?
Thx for your time

We dont know yet for the official, but XU will get CM10 from FXP I guess.

Of course it'd get JB. Actually, a selected 2011 models are supposed to get JB. So, no reason why an NXT device wouldn't be

Sony India said " ICS fill be available on First week of October "

I know but earlier they also said ICS will be available in 1st week of September..
Since them I've lost trust in Sony.

That's Sony. They bring updates nice and slow. But, they don't drop out their devices. Else, we'll have it the unofficial way

Well actually they drop their devices, like they did with x8 its got only 2.1 official firmware, but since Xperia U is anew device we will get ICS and in nearls future i hope JB. Sony is slow with their updates but they dont like other manufacturers, they did their updates unique and smooth like butter and tottaly different from others and for that they need some time

I remember the x8, I still have 2 of them. Both run bug free 2.3 overclocked and they never give any problems. I would have enjoyed the phone a lot less if it were not for the amazing devs over there, stock 2.1 is very limited and boring. I hope sony dont forget about the U and deny us JB. @dsaklein its nice to see a familiar name around here, x8 was getting a little old.

It is confirmed to be Key Lime Pie.

I hope we will get JB official update, but on the other hand we will get CM 10 with JB and by the time official JB update comes we will have tons of custom firmwares and kernels to choose, so it wouldn't be such a problem.

ICS killing development

HI,
i just wanted to share my thoughts on the lack of development that i'm noticing these days. When i bought a XMP, i was seeing a lot of mods and development happening in the XMP forum. New GB Roms/updated ROMS every week. Increasing performance week by week, Then sony released ICS, buggy and slow. All devs soon started raping it, but nothing great happened (apart from kamarush's minicms, which is still not very stable, also has camera recording stuttering). I've seen and used ROM's that came out such as RealICS, NeroICS, ICEHybrom.. all lacking performance, ROM's like real ICS does have issues with XMP (camera flash light not working properly), we also lost a good dev 'bbooff' due to idiotic members demanding like they paid a million $ to him to develop for XMP. The thing is most dev's are not devs, they are just modders. There are flaws in sony's ICS, unless you know how to debug and re-code and fix the actual problem, there is no point in simply putting all the optimization scripts and tweaks in the ROM. Most of the so called devs are doing the above. The only exception is kamarush and expacer, though they also have their limitations. GB development is halted! why?
I'd request the real dev's (kamarush & expacer) to try to fix the issues in sony ICS and the other modders to work on GB versions.
Plz do share your thoughts on my thoughts.
They both are now busy with JB. Maybe its can be really better then ICS. Just give them time and we will see how good is JB on our phones

I too hope JB version to be better than ICS. But i am not sure if they can make all the features work properly, such as Xloud, FM and bravia. Those are sony proprietary stuff, if the ICS version files are compatible, then it'd be great. but i highly doubt so. Anyhow, lets hope for the best.

[U] Discuss the ICS update for Xperia U.

I'm sorry if this has already been posted anywhere, or if it's too early, but I would like to discuss the Android 4.0.4 ICS update with the few Xperia U owners.
I read that it might be coming in late August, do you think they will provide the update this early?
Nothing much more to discuss really.
I just hope they will give us an update as early as possible, pretty sure we'll get it in early September.
And it needs to be stable.
Sony Mobile Italy had mentioned that ICS comes in the first week of Aug. God knows!
Sony delays updates like hell.
Sent from my ST25i using xda premium
I hope it comes before the 10th so I can enjoy ICS on holiday
this is what a friend of mine told me (he works by sony)
Xperia P will get it first: in the first week of august
xperia U will follow at the end of the first week/second week.
this is if everything is going right with testing!

Only when the browser hits heavy sites. Else, its just so smooth. And I'm happy with my device.
Hopefully, when ICS rolls out, more devs would move in :rollyeyes:

I think the locked bootloader isn't a big problem. My U is blocked too, but when we get ICS (I think) we can root it, and so we can install custom roms. We can't change kernel, but we can make CM roms what are working with stock kernel. I will do this too
Hopefully we'll get it this month, I might also get JB for my Arc S!

There is just no reason. The u8500 board is very new in the Android world, and we'll need to do a lot to add required HAL and kernel bits. If we do it now with CM7, we'll have to forward port all the changes to ICS very soon, and that's also a lot of work.

No. Sola will be updated later, but the timeout between updates for the P, the U and the Sola will be smaller.

And before someone asks why, it's because they use the same NovaThor U8500 platform, and because of that, much of the code for kernel drivers etc can be used on all of these nice little devices.

to this ICS, i just hope it arrives sooner than October, although I am satisfied with my GB 2.3.7, I won;t be able to take advantage of ICS, still, it's best to have the latest update... is ICS even the latest or it is just us having Late-software update?

That's buxxxxit! Sorry for the language (and I'm talking about Sony's statement!). Mobiles like Xperia J, or L has the same resolution as U but they got JB. My last hope is in FXP or even Sony releasing (after almost a year) a free-bug and speedy ICS release!

This is what sony says
Hi,
I understand your frustration. Believe me when I say we have really tried this. One difference of Xperia U and Xperia go is the screen resolution. This comes into play when in relation to RAM in the device. Xperia J is on another platform and Xperia E has the same resolution as Xperia go.
In the tests we made we felt that the user experience wasn’t good enough with Jelly Bean in relations to the few new features in that upgrade on some of the phones.
So there is a pattern in the update strategy. I’m truly sorry if this makes you like Sony a little bit less.

Thanks. As I've said previously, my only hope is the FreeXperia Team or a Sony ICS stock firmware at least decent (I'm on .54 and it feels laggy!). I'll wait to see if this .100 changes something for the better.
Open source archive is not changed as it was with .89 firmwire... so, it might be more reworked firmware
If anyone need link to open source archive 6.1.1.b.1.89 source
Hope this update....fixes
Slow camera & autofocus
Notification sound prob
Better multitasking
Ram management
