Guys, Bad News and Good News
Android 4.2 ain't Key Lime Pie, it's just an upgraded version of Jelly Bean, hence, still Jelly Bean, we won't get any official Rom, I mean come'on how much do you think a 1GHz Processor and 512 MB ram' Phone handle? Even ICS was a struggle.
Good News is, it's an Upgraded Version of Jelly Bean, so CM probably will Re-Base their Rom to 4.2, same thing applied to PA, AOKP.

Compare to GB, which peforms better ?
My ICS also Smooth, so... Every ICS rom's the same

I heard Sony wants to make op with everyone because jelly bean is so late. and therefor will bring official 4.2. Not sure but I heard it.

Have you used ICS on a Ray? It runs perfectly well on mine, the problem is not the processor or Ram but the amount of resource hogging bloatware **** that Sony fill phones with ... Get rid of all the crap and the phone handles ICS just fine, it's annoying to hear this old story about the Ray not being powerful enough to run JB etc, yet somehow the V is? Don't believe it just because Sony tell you it.

I wasn't on GB long enough to compare it..

So how come galaxy s i9000 gets jb running great aswell and ray not doing So great? They have the same hardware i think no?
Sent from my ST18i using xda app-developers app

Stop asking.
The 2011 smartphones can perfectly handle JB because they handle ICS.
JB is lighter than ICS.
Sony is just lasy to make the drivers for JB

Perhaps Sony want to focus on its 2012 models. But I sastify ICS with some mods

i think the answer is no.. our ray will not get stock 4.1/4.2 ROM
sony will not support xperia 2011 anymore, from now sony will focus upgrade on xperia 2012
but overall sony did great on upgraded than other brand..
BTW, if you want to keep get android upgrade, next time when buy a phone, consider to buy "google nexus" phone ..

Jelly Bean will be a tablet OS like Honeycomb :/
Like, for honeycomb they shifted to Motorola [XOOM], for this too, i dont think Samsung's gonna be ''the one'', still no updte on that.
It will basically run on tablets AND PC's. Dual Boot being the main feature; AndroidOS and Chrome OS. So expect it to be running on really powerful tabs/PC's/maybe even quadcore phones.

Nothing for our small & cool X10 Mini?
We dint even get froyo officially, lol. If Google releases jelly beans code, maybe the devs wwill make a rom for us. But Google did not release source codes for honeycomb (not until ics's code was released) so they might not release it for jelly bean, too.

In a month, members will be posting they need jelly beans to eat and spam will be flooding the forum.
before something like that happens, stickie a notice. (mods, admin).
well, jb seems far from our phones, kinda like honeycomb.
Wow, so fast!
But i think right now i am more than happy to be waiting out for a final ICS rom. The current paul-xxx rom on cm9 running ICS is really smooth, i think the final version of that rom is gonna be legendary.
Really exciting times on android as well as for the mini pro users too !!
too fast, problably as said here is for tablet and not for smartphone, that why in 2Q
It was the same with 2.3 an 3.0 there were just 3 monzh between them
And ICS was supposed to merge tablets and smartphones...
woaa its too fast
i didnot use ICS in my ARC S
how could google do this :\
why they didnot release ics for my current phone

Google release ICS, the problem are manufactured OEM that are not able to personalize ICS for all the hardware, in your case Sony.
We have only 2 possibility:
Wait OEM update and need some time, and is not secure your phone is updated
Use a custom rom via XDA
I really dont like thif fu***** ics and will hate jelly bean
Sent from my U20i using XDA
If it can be modded to minis and bring benefits, why not try?
However I think that's too little time between the android's OS. And that restriction from OEMs, Sony in my case, almost made ​​me regret having bought my mini, thank God XDA exists!
The host for jellybean is HTC and google..i think

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.

Don't worry. The Xperia P update has already been released in many regions, and I believe the updates vor the U, Sola and Go have already been certified by PTCRB.
I'm sure the ICS update will hit your device (or at least a flashable ftf) before the Xperia T, V and J are in the hands of consumers.
and again and again and again the same

Don't worry my friend. Just be patient and wait. Believe me: it's worth it. I was also mad, waiting for ICS on Xperia P. But Sony finally kept it's promise and I now I have a stable and bugfree ICS which is smoother than gb while eating less battery at the same time. Please consider that good development takes some time. Sony won't risk it's good reputation in breaking it's promises. You will get ICS soon.
I even heard some rumors that the 2012 line might get JB. But that will take time!!!
What about JB.

So until Christmas Sony makes me happy :highfive:
P.S.
ICS Works fine for me except no compatibility with mw600 no sound track id but jelly bean might not change that

BTW xperia is a phone so phone is to make a phonecalls, take picture, browse internet (if that is fully working no problem) , or constant changing operation system, in extreme let transfer that in to computers how often do you change OS in Laptop?

[RUMORS] Xperia S getting Jellybean soon?

From what I understood by translating this with Google, we'll get Jellybean soon.
http://vnsony.com/threads/2486/
They say that the guy who told them very accurate info about new Sony smartphones(Yuga and Odin) also gave them info that there will be a Jelly Bean update in two weeks.
Well, your thoughts, gentlemen!
I think Xperia S will get support for updates up to Key Lime Pie, so it wasn't something to worry about.
Late October/early November seems most likely for JB on fujis and blues, late November for montblancs.
fujis= xperia s and arco hd
blues= xperia t tx v etc.
montblanc= xperia p u sola
that right?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=31991116&postcount=75
this is exciting! it is strange though that sony have kept so quiet on this release, as normally they tend to mention an update and then it comes a few weeks later? is there a reason why they haven't confirmed yet either that said handsets will be updated?

Well I don't know about timing - on Android, Sony hasn't suddenly surprised users with version upgrades like that before, they tend to announce it in advance, and more recently, closer to the launch date as seen with the 2012 phones with ICS. This would be the tightest schedule yet, if they do announce it soon.
Previously, I wouldn't have minded much about Jelly Bean, but I was browsing a 2010 Sony Ericsson phone on 2.1 and it is MUCH faster than my 2012 Sony phone on ICS - so the aim of Jelly Bean to deliver performance and experience improvements of ICS is welcome in my book ... :good:
It's clearly going to happen. Sony have big plans to increase market share this year and promptness of updates is key to getting a god reputation. and Samsung has already got their jellybean updates rolling.....

you are right bro...but even JB isnt fully functional on our devices...and compare it to GB...i have downgraded to GB and loving it.
JB will perform at its full majesty only if sony provide the devs its latest kernel sources for JB...and that seems difficult to me.
for now...JB seems only a small upgrade in performance to cm9...thats my view...others' might differ.
Look how bad Android 4.2 is. Even custom ROM developers make ROMs with less bugs.
http://www.reddit.com/r/Android/comments/13e9qb/can_we_get_google_to_fix_the_android_42/
http://www.reddit.com/r/Android/comments/13d8ed/google_cancels_december_in_android_42/c72wv35
4.2 was rushed.
Lock screen widgets feel like beta ware at best. The clock app, despite the welcome additions of the timer and stopwatch, does not follow standard UI guidelines and looks totally out of place. The quick settings tiles should just be conventional toggles, and the 'Me' tile is useless on phones where you can't switch profiles. Now this? It's a minor oversight, but this is not the Android we have come to know since ICS. This is not up to Google's standards.
They should have just shipped the gesture keyboard, group messaging, camera updates and Gmail pinch to zoom. I have half a mind to downgrade to 4.1 and just use flash-able zips to give myself that experience.
