Yes, but it's clearly KitKat on an official Sony device, and Sony said that the ZU, Z1 etc. will be the first ones to get KK. The screenshot is probably from the Z1.

considering that Sony have synced the builds on the Z1 and ZU I have hopes that it will roll out at the same time, maybe the 15 or 16 of Feb?

[REQUEST][XPS] Xperia V Bravia Engine 2 port to Xperia S

Is there any possibility of the Bravia Engine 2 to be ported to our lovely Xperia S?:cyclops: I saw the EVO 3D forum and there was a section about it, but I am not sure if it works on XPS
+1 to this.
I remember some clever person made a flashable zip so Xperia play could have bravia1 engine
make for XP also..
As BE doesn't work anymore on my XS after unlocking the BL I'd love to see a port of the BE2 working on our beloved ICS version!
1) Bluetooth 4.0 (the Xperia T has Bluetooth 3.1).
2) Mobile BRAVIA Engine2: An evolution of Mobile BRAVIA Engine delivering an ever better viewing experience by adding a new real-time contrast optimisation and improving sharpness enhancement on top of high quality colour management and noise reduction.
3) ClearAudio+ mode: Developed with Sony’s own signal processing technologies, allows users to effortlessly enjoy audio quality that may have been stripped away by music compression. ClearAudio+ mode incorporates a variety of Sony’s sound technologies, but with one simple operation, users can easily enjoy Sony recommended sound in ultimate clarity and presence, across the entire spectrum of sound.
4) HDR (High Dynamic Range): The camera quickly captures the image twice with different exposure levels and layers it together to create one optimised photo. HDR is automatically activated when Superior Auto detects scenes with strong backlight.
5) Superior Auto: Technology used in Sony Cyber-shot Digital Cameras that intelligently detects scenes (up to nine scenes), sets most optimal settings for still image, and applies best image processing including layered technology (up to four photos), making it easy to get the best shot even in a dark or backlight scene.
THESE ARE THE UPCMING NEW FEATURES IN XPERIA V (I Still Don't Kno Why They Called Xperia T Flagship)
We Need To Port All 2,3,4,5 If They Are Not Hardware Based!

This right here is the new version of Google Playstore ..Its version 4.0
The Play store has got a revamped and new UI and lots of other things ..
The estimated time for roll-out is not known yet so ..hang on and keep waiting ...
For a video of the new Playstore 4.0
Here : http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=3VL-R4RPx3Q
Looks interesting! Waiting for it and hoping for an inverted version :finger-crossed:

Do custom ROMs also get the update OTA? If so, what it's like? You just open Play and get a notification like 'sup, we've changed the looks' ?

Don't be dream in 4.3 or 4.2 cause Novathor already stop support their processor and doesn't will release any source for develop to make it compatible with 4.2 or either 4.3, just wait for developer to port it cause XDA have many clever developer
Well, I found this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rrIaL-mfZRU
He says it's Android 4.3 and in comments when people asking link for that he says it's coming in September.
I don't think this is possible but a small hope is still there :fingers-crossed:
I think it is a fake...
The locker could be a third-part app and the displayed version could have been changed editing the build.prop file as far as I know...
Please Correct me if i'm wrong...
Ps. Btw I'd love to see 4.3 on our device but I really don't think Sony will release it...
Sent from my LT22i using xda app-developers app
Its totally fake, Novathor is dead and they wont give us 4.2 or 4.3 i hope ya'll know that now and thats why we here on XDA !!
So stop this endless discussion because that video is just 1000% fake !!
Its just an edited build.prop bla bla bla!

Although I also think that it is a fake, but even since novathor is dead it is not impossible for Sony to make 4.2 for our devices. I have to admit that it is not very likely.

It's fake but its not impossible. Maybe Sony wants to release it for those who have bought golden Xperia P devices.
They've paid a lot of money and they want an updated device.

Support for Android Runtime (ART)

Any news if the Z2 ships with support for ART? So far HTC One (M8) and the S5 have been confirmed, couldn't find anything about the Z2.
XZ2 has 4.4 so art will be avalible , im not sure about support but it should be mostly fine

ART is not included with Sony's version of KitKat on the Z1 (see comments here: http://www.xperiablog.net/2014/03/1...ild-is-live-see-some-full-res-camera-samples/), so it's unlikely it is on the Z2.

True, but I did also read someone saying the Z2 didn't have the option for ART in developer settings, but I couldn't find the article/post again...

This was on pre-release firmware, so I guess there's a slight chance they put it in, but I doubt it. Don't expect ART support. Sorry

Is it posible that we could build the libart.so and delete the libdvm.so (wipe cache and dalvik) in hopes that it forces art??
