I really doubt that list is legitimate because the S2's last official update was 4.2.2 and Samsung confirmed it wouldn't get 4.3 so why would it bow suddenly be being updated to 4.4?

Certain phones will skip a version if they are slow getting updates and the phone can handle the update. An example is the developer edition HTC One which is on 4.1 and getting skipped to 4.3.
However, my main point is that the only phones listed which will get the 4.4 update are the newer devices. Things like the S2 or Xperia U will not get those updates because they either can't handle the update or the manufacturer just doesn't want to upgrade them that far.

But Im not sure how they are gonna to port 3.8 kernel to Novathor but dont underrestimate google to,remember that Android got reputation down because "lack of updates" and they will fix that now just to get advantage over iOS.

i dont agree with the statement that older phones wont get it on the basis that they cant handle it. kit kat it developed for phones with 512 ram
They always forgot Xperia P
Wtf is wrong with Sony !!!
Then they better dont build the XP next time, always the S or SP or any other Xperia but they never show XP :/
Xperia U have also novathor like XP !!

What was the XU's latest official update? Was it 4.1.2 or 4.2?
Either way it would still need to go to 4.3 so that Sony could know the device could have enough power to be able to run the update smoothly and efficiently.

Just because it's developed to be able to perform "well" on 512mb RAM devices, it doesn't mean that all devices with 512mb RAM will get the update. Only those which the manufacturer's chose will get the update. Sony are obviously going to focus on their newer devices (just like any other OEM) because they know that the newer phones are better equipped to have the update.

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.

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!

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!

Figured we should have an official JB thread on this forum.
Till now there has been no word from Sony on Jelly Bean for our devices. Your thoughts ?
Please read this before posting stuff unrelated to topic:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=39592911&postcount=1774
I think that JB is not comming this year, since Sony just recently released ICS, and not for all devices yet (mine, Xperia U, will come only on September)... So only on 2013... Sad though.
Sony may suprise us.

Indeed. It's really down to device drivers. Now Sony are using their own inhouse stuff, (Thor chipset), it may happen quicker. Also ICS is not that different from Jellybean (unlike Gingerbread -> ICS).
I would say it's a safe bet to see ICS on at least the Xperia S before the end of the year.
Even more-so given Sony's intent to up their game in the mobile market. If they truely want to be king of the hill, they need great hardware (which I believe they are now doing), AND great software delivered on time. (still W.I.P)

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.

Yeah thats your opinion, we shall see
My opinion is that this is pointless.. I mean Sony is listening to their customers but I don't think they will update their old devices considering how many devices they released this year. They will only update their dual core phones and maybe not all of them. They might as well update some of the new single core ones (like the Xperia J). Our phones are very capable of the Jelly Bean update but everything is just a marketing trick! They want us to buy their new phones.. and I'm not talking only about Sony. All manufacturers do that.

do you guys think we can get the update officialy from sony ?
like xperia X10i ?
i would say it could be possible , because sony updated the x10i from 1.6 to 2.1 and they thought to update to 2.2 Froyo , but they skipped the update ,, and suddenly they released 2.3 GB..
you guys think sony skip JB update and bring us KLP ? , because KLP also requires lesser source and hardware
..
99.99% Sony will not make it for us (they don't even fix current bugs). We can only hope custom roms will work without serious bugs.

It won't happen before all Oems upgrade to 4.3 and afaik Google is giving more time to them and about Klp, I doubt it's possibility on any of our 2011 devices if any of hardware requirements change....
