Someone needs to port it to our device before you can use it, and I seriously doubt that will happen.

It may happen...

It may happen. When a CM version is released, then some of the awesome devs here may port it. They have done an awesome job porting Jelly Bean so it is not that far fetched!

too difficult too see android 4.4 for our device.. there are 4.2 and 4.3 before kitkat and they are still not here as an android version rom..
but not sure

i believe the most active developer of most of the kernel and rom is no longer that active. while it is good to see kitkat on our mini phone i highly doubt it would even be possible. if its possible you might be looking at a very slow phone due technical constraints of using the updated os

But we can use jellybean.
I know kitkat is better than jellybean
Sorry to my english i'm korean

don't think so... the problem is always drivers, and the low specs... let's face it... we love this little device, but is too old.

Hey Guys, Lets Ask nAa To Develop MiniCM Kitkat(4.4) For Our Tiny E10i and U20i...

It would be cool since they say KitKat use less memory, but I guess drivers are hard to find for this tiny device.

Kitkat actually using a RAM compression, like KSM, compcache (a.k.a zRAM), JIT and this is already in CM7 era, before Kitkat
For more info:
http://www.androidpolice.com/2013/1...rt-to-devices-with-as-little-as-512mb-of-ram/
Also, this is need a big and fast cpu cycle, so IF your device can handle @ 1Ghz it's not even enough, because ARMv6 (65nm) vs latest ARMv7 (45nm, 28nm on A-15)
And Google already leaving ARMv6 for Android support and for developing Kitkat, we need to hack many System in Android to working in our chipset
I'm happy, because we can run 4.1.2 on X10 Mini
But, for Kitkat, I think we must buy a new device

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

Xperia S Vanilla AOSP Project

Hi everybody,
At the 3rd of September, Sony releases the binaries for xperia s to support JBQ's Xperia S experiment.
So I was really happy about that, coz I thought that jelly bean is near.
I thought that now, that when they have the binaries and drivers, the only thing to do for Google is to implement these drivers into android source code, because vanilla Android doesn't need so much configuration, etc.
So my question how long you think it takes that we have vanilla on our xperia s?

I hope very soon, i think FXP has done a good work yet on porting the cyanogen 10 to our device, so maybe they can start from this point to develop it... but i don't have seen a lot of rom and kernel for our phone like others Xperia serie's phones... maybe it's due only to the youthness of NXT line..

I don't know when the official release will be, but CM 10 will release its new M1 versions. In the moment we have a stable alpha-version and that's a big step too. But my opinion is that Sony is just inconfident about the official JB -.-

It is just an experiment to see how hard is to implement another device on the AOSP project. Not that updates will come from Google.

I hope is not just an experiment because have JB in ours Xperia S will be very performant, in my opinion. Sony is usually close to developers.
It may be also a test: rumors talks about a Sony nexus.. it will be a big step..:victory:
Actually, AOSP development seems very slow, at least from what I've been seeing on the git. Don't expect the sony bins to speed that project up
That's what I'm scared about because when android 5.0 comes soon how long would that take to reach the xperia s (nexus) becomes the update..

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.

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.

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 ..

[Q] Android 4.4 KitKat

Hey there I'm curious to as if our devices will support android 4.4 KitKat because it includes the new API ActivityManager.isLowRamDevice() ... and that it would work on 512 Mb RAM ... What do u think ... and will there be any development for our devices
KitKat
Chck This link it says Kitkat is designed to run on low memory devices which has 512 MB ram.. So will it possible to run Kitkat on our Devices.http://developer.android.com/about/versions/kitkat.html
i think someone will probably port it for our device if developers gets kernel support and technically yes kitkat is designed to run on 512 mb ram devices

I doubt that it will work perfectly on devices with 512 MB ​​RAM:silly:
Kiktak should run well on our devices. maybe our devices are to old, but not very weak. I have the nexus 5 kitkat port on my nexus 4 and it is running very well and uses much less ram, even with a couple of apps running in background it is not taking more than 350 MB (previously android 4.3 was taking somethimes 700MB).

[Discussion] Android 4.4 KitKat for Novathor Devices

Hello everybody,
I just open this thread to discuss about Android 4.4 KitKat for our lovely Novathor Devices
So here's my opinion:
I still have hope that Sony will update our Novathor Devices. Google announced that KitKat is fitting on 512MB devices well so it's not impossible Some people here lost theri hope on official updates from Sony but not me!
So what's your opinion about it?

Then you are most probably wrong. Stop hoping. Xperia U, Go, P and Sola will not get anymore updates:
-Novathor is dead, ST-Ericsson already closed its doors.
-Sony will rather focus it's resources on more expensive phones like Xperia S, T,Z and Z1 rather than low-mid range phones like Xperia U or Go.

Yes, dont hope to get the official update from Sony. You will be disappointed. Also our devs don't have necessary drivers for our hardware, so it is difficult to make a fully working 4.4 Rom. Hope our devs here will make our devices run on 4.4 with only few acceptable issues.

If Sony didn't even updated their last year's flagship models, why would they update midrange phones? Even Google themselves won't update the Galaxy Nexus, even though it's more than capable to run Kit Kat.
