this sunday for generic world roms, don't ruin my weekend, please sony :) :P
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] mzr7:
Ics for Xperia active out now. So Monday seems like a safe bet for us in think since Sony is keeping a gap of two to three days between each cellphone update. Fingers crossed.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] donjamal:
Sunday as they released GB for the precious x10 ;-)

So how long would a MIUI release take after we get ICS?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] kartobot:
If you've got CM9, it doesn't take that long to get MIUI.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] turkification:
Nice! It's the main reason I can't wait for ICS :D
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] tel033:
I really think they will roll it out on Monday or Wednesday

Btw didn't you guys noticed the similarities between ios UI and Sony UI?

Like the keyboard, the button to hang off the phone( the red one)

And I'm not an apple fan at all always had Sony phones
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Farhang:
MIUI 4 is based on stock Android 4 ROMs. They don't work with CM anymore.

Cheers
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Ambroos:
There might be some, but very little. Sony's skin got more "Metro" (like Windows Phone) with the 2012 version though, especially the music player. The keyboard is indeed a bit of an iOS clone. I personally preferred the 2011 keyboard, felt a lot more precise. Aside those things there is very little about Sony's interface they didn't make themselves.

I still love it. It's incredibly stylish and well-designed. Where I felt on my Arc S/Neo like I was missing things (like a proper timer and alarm system, speed dial, ...) the Xperia S is very complete but still stays elegant. I also love the simple black and white theme with very subtle gradients and very subtle background textures.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] donjamal:
I second that. Sony's UI has style unlike any other manufacturer's UI in the android world. Android on it's own at least until GB looks really crappy.

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] D33KK:

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] mzr7:
I have a question why does sues have to update before a software update? :confused:

A lil off topic I admit but hey just curious
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Ambroos:
SEUS only updates to support new devices, not to support new software updates.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] mzr7:
Oh mostly people post seus got updated so software update incoming. Hence the question.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] shoz_on4u:
Waiting for monday :) want to b the first to update if rumors are to b belived :rolleyes:

Hey K900 u have anything to share some good news:rolleyes:
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] ddee:
Same here. That's on my parents computer. On my computer none of the Sony software even installs the drivers or functions at all, so I can't even update gingerbread software. To be honest I don't think this phone is as functional as the desire I bought this to replace. You can't make the browser only load full websites, you can't make the weather app only manually update, no statusbar toggles, keyboard without press and hold is a lot slower. And that's just my initial list. The fact that a flagship phone cannot even connect to a pc and update makes it a bit of a dog in my opinion and I think I'm going back to my desire while I decide what to get next.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Scratchling:
Sony cant prevent you from screwing up your own PC.

PCC should work fine, in 99% of cases it does, and if it doesnt, flashtool. Job done.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] ddee:
This would be fair comment if it was just me that this happens too. A brief google search suggests that this is not the case. On my PC and network, the phone does not update with it's own update centre app, PC Companion or the Sony update service. This is despite following and trying every suggested fix. On other computers I get to install the drivers and the "great" sony software recognises that the phone needs an update and then hangs at preparing for hours on end. In my household we have the following phones that all work fine with my Pc: HTC Desire, Motorola Defy, Orange San Francisco, HTC Evo, Galaxy Ace and Orange Monte Carlo.

I guess I can't prevent Sony from screwing their own software up.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] wssherbiny:
When will the ICS show up
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] gm007:

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] jonmorris:

And maybe it's time to fix your PC!
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] realfelix:

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] a4rocks:
He should also try Samsung Kies and would then love to see how many hairs he would have torn. :D Sony has probably the best software of them all. iTunes (at least for Windows) sucks, and Samsung Kies is just downright pathetic.

alarm sound is grey mean is not availible

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] del1701:
Un tick style settings then tick alarm sounds.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] ddee:
LOL at people talking about phones I don't own. All my other phones work fine, some rooted with roms, some not. Sony produce another average consumer product shocker. I know you've made a financial commitment to Sony, but get over it.. MIUI on my sons 18 month old Defy knocks spots off Sonys latest flagship as it stands.

The fact is Sony's update software is unreliable and it ain't only me with a problem.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] realfelix:
lmao.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] K900:
Sony's update software is unreliable? I see someone never HBOOT-bricked an HTC phone here.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Ambroos:
Sony's PC Companion gives issues, quite a lot. I see it all the time in the store where I work and on Sony Mobile's FB page.

Just use Update Service. It's a lot more reliable and will always work.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] jonmorris:
There's nothing wrong with the DEFY, but I wouldn't place it in the same category for performance/functionality (or software updates) as any Xperia model from 2011 or 2012.

Motorola has lost the plot on supporting phones, and releasing lovely looking phones that are underpowered. The DEFY+ is okay, but the DEFY Mini is absolutely awful and about two years out of date.

I loved my DEFY but always wished it had more 'oomph'.

(Sorry it's off topic but there's some more time wasted while we await ICS!)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Felimenta97:
Xperia S and U are having a party at some carriers ( the 4 biggest here) and show tech stores in Brazil to celebrate it's launch here, all made by Sony Mobile Brazil. All I can officially say is: ICS is late. (Everything here come years late)

Let's do some math: Xperia S first appeared to be sold on mid March, let's say 15th. Considering that ICS will come to us this Monday, June 18th, this it's 3 months and 3 days.

Ok. Xperia S is being launched here in June 16th + 3 months and 3 days, then carrier unlocked Brazilian phones should have ICS on September 21th, that IF Sony Brazil follows the same time that happened over the rest of the world.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] D33KK:
My pc is not broken, and I don't know any in depth workarounds.

Update centre won't even give me advice on what to do.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] realfelix:
No, you can be happy that the xps is released that late for you.. You will get ICS right after us. But its not sure that ICS is coming on monday or is that confirmed?

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] judunur:
No official Statemant on wich day ICS will be released, just Q2
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Felimenta97:
No, about ICS here, you do not understand. It isn't the device that was late, all updates here take ages to come. When 2.3.4 was first released for Mini. When only had it around late February.

As I said ICS, "considering that it's coming this Monday..." And this seems a good date, as someone said, there were a 2 or 3 days delay between 2011 ICS. And the last device got it on Friday, so... But it's only an assumption.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] m1st3r1:
use the xda's update then :D .

i mean in my LG GT540, my country got official updates looong after other country. but thanks to xda (and modaco at that time), i use Baltic (which at that times, i even dont know where it is :o ) rom.

if ure afraid of the warranty, there are flashtool and an how-to relock the bootloader (in my old phone there's kdz updater) to flash the original rom. and in my experience if it's hardware problem (my gt540 has screen issues), they dont even bother to check the firmware.

unless if u have a locked bootloader that cant be unlocked :rolleyes:
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] donjamal:
for the official firmware, you don't even have to unlock the bootloader, just flash it with flash tool and you're good to go :) no warranty loss :)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] SnowOokami:
in my experience they often don't mind custom software or an unlocked bootloader... it depends on the issue though ;-)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] donjamal:
my brother fried his LG phone with custom kernel & rom and LG fixed it with warranty, though i'm not sure Sony would do the same :) though i don't think there was any chance for LG to check what happened since the phone could not even turn on :)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] chesterr:
Off the topic,

You guys worry about the warranty, I bought my phone in China and have the Yellowtint issue and they didn't even replace the phone or fix it!and then it turned out that my phone is Taiwan region one!cause I went to Sony Ericsson repair shop to repair it.they refused to repair the phone..
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] idtyu:
Sony doesn't care if you rooted or used customised ROM, they even provide official ways to unlock boot loader ... My X10 was in the service centre once, and they don't care about custom rom, they will just replace it with the offical one ...
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Felimenta97:
I bought it at US, and came with French firmware. I'm not saying that I bought it here ( because it's 2 to 3 times more expensive). I said that (XS being launched here) just to talk about the ICS update.

And my device has a some yellow tint, and I am almost sure that they won't trade my phone.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] ddee:
Well after spending most of the day going systematically through the whole process with everything from flashtools (this wasn't working either to begin with even after manually installing the drivers) to PCC I think I've found the solution. It appears that the SEMC drivers not installing are the basis of the software problems. Basically you need to boot into safe mode with network access, connect the phone in flash mode (P+voldown) and then you can get the drivers installed. If you get SEUS installed before you go into safe mode you can update using that. I think maybe that this may be a problem with the original android installed on the phone because when I deleted the drivers and software and tried again with the updated phone it worked straight away with no need of any workarounds.

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] jonmorris:
As Sony is rolling out ICS on the 2011 models in batches (and so far, every phone I have is yet to have its SI number listed), I am really looking forward to hearing about all the people on here getting ICS in the next week or two, while us UK SIM-free owners wait and wait and wait.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] del1701:
I was just thinking the same thing
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] shoz_on4u:
2205 posts just to discuss ICS arrival :eek:

Imagine wat will happen when it arrives ;)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Felimenta97:
We would only have it around early April. Sony would need to optimize, theme and create the ROM to it. We only would get it in May if Google already have released the source codes to Sony before showing it to the public.

And there is other big problem: there are rumours that Jelly Bean will be for Tablets and Netbooks. Phones would stick to ICS for a while more.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Ambroos:
I seriously hope Google learns from the fragmentation hell (and how still almost no phones run ICS) and WAITS with the next major version of Android.

It's great to see Sony is making progress on ICS! Also looks like they're not using the Roboto font (yet?) judging from DooMLorD's screenshot, which is a good thing. I've noticed multiple times that the font currently used on the Xperia S (Droid Sans?) already looks stunning, and Roboto looks a lot less interesting.

Now that I think about it, what font does the Xperia S actually use as main font?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] D33KK:
That would be pretty cool, I doubt it will happen however.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] KidCarter93:
.73 & CM9

Is the .73 firmware update available in the UK yet, and if so, how can I get it?

Also, is there a working CM9 available yet? If so, can someone link it to me please?

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Felimenta97:
First, I will be nice and answer now. Next time, go to Xperia S, Android development and search there.

FreeXperia Team is already working on it, but we will only be able to play with a beta after the bootloader bug is fixed by Sony. Ask DoomLord to explain what is the bug on noob words, because I can't understand the bug on it.
