No mate. You are not unlocking bootloader but simply flashing a different FTF. Use Flashtool without worries for it. But when you take it to a service center (if you do need to), just don't tell the guy. He/she might be a n00b to understand it ;)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] pixy132:
Just installed the update.

Looks like battery life has improved. And buttons are indeed more responsive.

The Sony people really listen and response to problems.

Now I'm really looking forward to Sony 's ICS update update!
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] BeleQ:
yes, the battery life quite improve in .75
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] warface:
Just flash the Central European .73

Then your SPCC will update you to .75

Seems smoother to me, but can't say the capacitive buttons are any more responsive though.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] gm007:
Try .76 firmware.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] andoridkiller:
Anyone Else got UK Generic update? I got a feeling there is something wrong with their update service and that It always shows as upto date.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] adsada arc:
@UK generic people, just flash the firmware via flashtools. Save you the hassle of waiting and if you get a Nordic one you will get future updates first
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] krabappel2548:
I got a message from pc companion to update to .76 and I live in Belgium :)

But didn't updated because I was already on rooted .76 :)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] andoridkiller:
ahh thanks mate.

---------- Post added at 10:03 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:02 PM ----------

I dont want to loose my app data and not rooted so i dont want to do that. Thanks though.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Ambroos:
It's a minor update. There isn't really a point in messing around with Flashtool and all that stuff just for some tiny bugfix you never really encountered before anyway.

I'll just wait it out (NL Generic). Doesn't look like I'm missing anything right now :P
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] xgr:
no updates for Germany showed up nether in PPC nor SEUS...

So I just flashed the .75 CE version with flashtool (unchecked wipe data) without any problem :)

I'm not certain what really makes me think to have better response to the buttons... but I would rather confirm ;)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] adsada arc:
tbf its not that hard, search for the firmware, download flash and done. Much quicker than the time spent for people continually plugging their phone in to check for an update.

There might not be anything that sufficiently improved, but people still wanna have the latest plus I actually think battery life has improved too!

Also its worth doing for the future - if you want to be one of the first to update to ICS, being on UK Generic probably wont. :)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] madmada13:
update in romania

I updated this morning. I bought my SXS with a Orange Romania contract.

I don't see any improvement on battery life, just in touch sensitive buttons.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] keithwalton:
What is your customization code ? as I found out the other day my uk generic model came with a different code to the one avaliable on here. 3114 instead of 3921 I dont think either have seen a release beyond .67 though.

For those using flashtool if you get an error with .75 ce1 (i got a partition error, all other roms have gone on fine) then update your version of flashtool.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Hitmax117:
That has nothing to do with you living in Belgium I think, it's just saying that because you now have a different customization code then the standard belgium generic one
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Ambroos:
It does indeed only depend on what customization you are on. I live in Belgium, but I'm on NL Generic since I bought my phone in The Netherlands. And even then you can't be sure, some shops in The Netherlands sell phones with a Generic Germany customization, for example.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Hitmax117:
Same here bought it in a Belgium shop but came with NL Generic software

Guess the .75 update is for next week then, doesn't matter realy ics is coming this month anyway :D
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] tel033:
Any improvements with the focusing problem or less noisy pics?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] krabappel2548:
Oh yes, didn't thought about the customazition code lol :p
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Xadious:
If you update via SPCC/PCC does it wipe all the data on the phone? Apps/videos/images/contacts etc? (used flashtools previously).

Also interested to hear whether focus has improved or at least become faster? For example in video recording mode, does it refocus from far away objects to close up objects quickly? Or is it slow as ever?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Felimenta97:
I recorded a lot today (about 40 minutes, different videos) and the focus is somewhat pain slow. About SPCC, I used mine to update (as PCC wasn't recognizing my phone, this stupid program) and there was 2 options: Update (keep all your data) and "fix problems" (or something like that) and this would erase everything. The pre marked option was Update.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Technoboi:
I keep getting a failure each time I reach the preparation stage..."unable to install or start phone software update components"...so no .75 for me.

I tried selecting/deselecting USB Debugging, made sure nothing was running on the phone etc, fully charged, rebooted phone/PC still same error.

How can I get this to work?

And on another note I really need to get Titanium Backup to work! Need to restore my apps+data! Ugh...my Galaxy S II was much easier to handle!
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] SFU11:
ah accidentally pressed thanks..

well.. are u use PCC?? i have same problem while using PCC, try use SEUS/SUS instead.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] nemer12:
Try another computer, or reinstall drivers :) ! That worked for me .
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] xperiasuser:
I just flashed the 76 Taiwan ftf with flashtool then flashed the system.img
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] k_myk:
Ok, something strange happened. I don't know if it's connected with this update, but at this moment I have no output through official HDMI. I only get popup that it's connected, but LiveWare Manager doesn't recognize it and it doesn't launch Sony's funky TV app. :confused: WTF? It worked before and I used it for the second time.

Uhm... Help? :(

Scratch that. It was same stupid TV settings fault. :)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] andoridkiller:
yesh mine is 3921
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] MrBelter:
mine is also 3921 and on .67
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] randy_c:
I noticed the SG 0.73 Rom has the largest file. Do you know why? or is this an error?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] K900:
There can be many reasons, but nothing completely different there.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Daniel_GB:
Something interesting :D

I just connected my phone to my laptop...

PCC is saying that there is a update available to .76...

the weird thing is i already updated my phone to .76 via flashtool :confused:

unlocked bootloader & rooted with DooMKernel...
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Ambroos:
If the update with PC Companion fails, do the update with Update Service. It's a lot more reliable.

http://www.sonymobile.com/global-en/tools/update-service/
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] andoridkiller:
still no luck here
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] tel033:
Nothing here either on my DE generic pcc says is up to date
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] MrBelter:
Still nothing here on a UK generic SIM free phone, both PC Companion and Update Service saying .67 is the latest software.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] del1701:
Can you create a ftf for us?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] ratedr75:
Have just flashed to Generic UK .67 firmware as found that the 3UK bloatware seemed to slow the phone done considerably.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] randy_c:
Official file. :)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] carmello1911:
I can say that battery on .76 tw is way better than the .67 uk generic i was before.. That surely made me happy! Get me some ics now please!
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] DeeJay00001:
I had the same problem and I fixed it by installing the following folders then re-installing Sony PC Companion.

C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Sony

C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Sony Ericsson

I also when through my registry and deleted anything to do with Sony Ericsson.

All worked after that. I think its to do with old drivers left on from the last update or when I used to update my X10.

Dave J :cool:

---------- Post added at 06:10 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:07 AM ----------

The 3 deltas I have found between 73 and 75 is:

1. Battery lasts longer with the same usage.

2. More responsive touch keys

3. Not sure if its my imagination but its slightly louder.

Dave :cool:
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] subben2003:
anyone from Denmark, Norway or Sweden got the update yet?

I'm waiting but i'm not shure if it is a region specific update or it's world wide?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] K900:
I don't think it's worldwide. It's not listed on PTCRB.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] subben2003:
OK and thanks...
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] subben2003:
Just got the .75 update via PCC in Denmark - So the Nordic edition should be out now :-D
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] chesterr:
Only downside as far I found is the camera shutter sound on off feature is gone.

Hope it'll be back on ICS.Battery life is so improved in this update! I used the phone for about 1day and 5hours of normal use!
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] K900:
It's likely illegal in Taiwan or whatever country's firmware you use.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Deniz.S:
Downloading the update for .75 this morning on T-Mobile UK
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] chesterr:
Yea My phone is Taiwanese, guess probably that's why it's not there!
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] fkef:
Nordic version

Do you have a generic or branded phone?

I just ran Bridge for mac, still nothing in Sweden, for Generic version.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] del1701:
And still nothing for UK generic :(
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] krabappel2548:
Delete the line about camera sound forced = 1 in build.prop ;)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] gm007:
Change it to =0 instead of deleting ;)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] subben2003:
I don't know if its branded. It do have some bloatware from Telenor. Can someone tell me how to find out if its generic or branded? Tia
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] k_myk:
If it has some carrier stuff it is branded.

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] subben2003:
I think mine is generic or? Please check attached picture
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] fkef:
When comparing your SI number, with the list in previous post, you have "Denmark, Telenor" branded phone.

It is really strange that both 3 in Sweden and Telenor in Denmark has been able to release the .75 update, but nothing for the generic users.

Maybe K900 or someone else has the answer to that.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] MrBelter:
Hmmmm i see a pattern emerging :D
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] HlmRan:
Currently D/loading this as I type

I'm not complaining at getting it, but a tad surprised that Generic users are not getting first (again)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] MrBelter:
After 5 or 6 years of SIM free phones i never thought i would see the day when i wished i had a network locked and branded phone LOL
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] fkef:
I dont know how many different posts in various forums I been reading messages with something like this.

First Sony releases the update, then the carriers and do their modifications and after that they release their update. Also that it is very unusual that generic users receives the update after branded users.

With the .73 issue in UK and now it seems like it is mostly branded phones that receives the .75 update, this can not be true.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] MrBelter:
Generic phones in the UK never even got .73
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] k_myk:
That is strange. My SXS after debranding runs on stock, generic Central European software and I got this update the first day it was available on PCC :confused:

It sure has English language support so why there is a delay?

Hi,

Couldn't find discussion about it here.

Not sure if its cause screen resulotion, but i hate seeing my contacts so pixelate.

I've tried Sense 4.0 included sync, tried HaxSync to max resolution, same.

Is there any solution to it ?

no way the picture in Facebook itself is so low quality

Checked the small thumbnail on facebook and its 200 × 150 pixels with 72ppi.
[HTC One X] nobnut:
This might work. I haven't tried it.
[HTC One X] Chura:
it does update gmail contacts from the phone directory, i hove too much contact to sync with.

Nothing with Facebook ?

Well, i guess its HTC specific issue with HaxSync

On my 2.3.6 LA6 ROM I've got JKay's mod, everything's super stable and there are no issues with Recovery turning the phone into a brick. Does it really make sense to upgrade just now?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] N1NJATH3ORY:
Dude ics is super stable :) 2.3.6 sucked big time for me.. its well worth the upgrade PERIOD!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Moandal:
Well I took the plunge. First I tried Criskelo's ICS V5.1, but I didn't like the theme and very quickly found things that didn't work properly, so then I tried stock LQ2, using Mobile Odin Pro to keep root and the CF-Root V5.6 kernel.

It's early days, but so far I'm happy. Getting set up was a pain - it was only after 2 attempts that I discovered that Bookmark Sort & Backup isn't ICS compatible and was screwing up my Browser. I therefore had to do 2 complete wipes using CF-Root v5.6. This claims to have (probably) fixed the superbrick bug, and it certainly worked fine for me - whew!

I'm missing all the toggles of Jkay because there isn't a version of the 15 toggle mod for stock LQ2, but hopefully that'll come soon and SwipePad replaces the quick launcher panel nicely.

So no regrets yet, but there's still the odd lag here and there, and I can't say it's a significantly better experience. Also I can't sketch to save myself, so the new S-Pen applications aren't important to me. Still, got to move with the times! There's still nothing to replace my wonderful Note. :)

DQ of the day?

Downloaded & installed N7000XEULP4 via this site.

I intend to root again as mobile odin failed to inject root - yes I followed the good Dr's direction.

I used PC Odin, reset to factory in stock recovery (post flash) after 15min wait at the Samsung logo (very tentatively re-set due to massive information about deleting killing partitions, mmc sections etc;) & the unit is now one stock ics 4.0.3

So after I have rooted following http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1329360.

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nahsen:
Hey all,

I experienced something a few mintues ago. I installed a new rom, Blissdroid. I 'discovered' that the backlight of the touch input (under the screen) was reacting dynamicly to sunlight. It went off in full sun. I couldn't find a setting to let it lighten up all the time.

I went back to Virtuous Unity, 2.35. It seems like the same thing is happening. I don't know if it's just normal (and I never discovered it before) or is there a setting I have to change (because I can't find one)?

Someone who can help me? :)

Thanks!
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dstylazz:
Settings>Display>Brightness and turn off automatic brightness and set it to a value manually see if that works for you.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nahsen:
I tried that, didn't work.

For you it is always lighten up, even if you are outsise/inside where it is really bright? When I go outside, full sun, those 4 touch inputs will stop shine. It seems there is something wrong with my DHD? Or Am I mistaken? Someone who can confirm it is always lighten up?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] trh1341:
When inside those buttons will be on. When you go outside they will turn off. They don't have a setting to turn that off
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nahsen:
Oh, so it is just a normal feature of DHD? Weird that I just discovered that yesterday :D
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] t0mas_:
rcmix 4.0 and roms that use rctweaks have settings for this. alternatively you can set it to your exact preference if you edit framework-res according to this:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1034743&highlight=systemui+apk

the link is manly aimed at tweaking your autobrightness, but it has info on butons too
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nahsen:
Thank you. I only feared a problem, caused by changing ROM, as I never saw that before. I Thought those inputs were always lighten up, in every dark/bright situation.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] t0mas_:
depends on rom authors preference i suppose :)

if you are using sense 3.5 runnymede port, you can also flash tweaks as addon. some very nice features in there :)
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nahsen:
Thank you all. I'm not great in flashing ROMs, certainly nog all those tweaks. I tried Virtuous Affinity and Blissdroid, but in both I heard a pop sound after playing music, sound, ringtone,... It seemed like I was not alone.

So I went back to Virtuous Unity 2.35, which doesn't give me any problem, except for a random bootloop from time to time (for example after playing Angry birds and once just after sending a message) what I can fix by replacing the battery. This happens 1 time in 3 months or so.

I just don't want to brick my phone, so I don't experiment much. :) Maybe one day, when I've got a new phone, I can use my DHD to experiment more. :p
[G2 and Desire Z General] mazdarati2:
I like andromadus a lot. its the best rom ive ever had but i think i have some ideas for the next versions of it:

-themes, i would love a sense 4 or touchwiz or even a iOS theme

-more processor speed options, i mostly onderclock my Android. but there should be more "low speeds" options, like 600mhz.

-USB options, like the internet USB options in android 2.3x

-Beats Audio, maybe?

-The old music player, this one is not as easy as the one in beta 3

-Gmail update? it says everytime at opening that it hasn't been synced

-games, temple run is always buggy. Fix maybe?

-when at lockscreen, and then holding the lock button, you can still make screenshots or shutdown or phone, happend to me 2 times. fix that please

i will have more but this is it for now. what do you think?
[G2 and Desire Z General] virtualflyer:
last thing you said: it has always been like that.

themes pretty much difficult and there are cyano theme you can use

they're trying, I think, to keep the rom as much similar as possible to stock/cyano ics and and to add new features when they may be useful, but not to completely change it. Beats audio: it's mostly for sense roms, you can flash a zip if you want it. they can't update gmail themselves, google should.
[G2 and Desire Z General] KyraOfFire:
AAB4 supports theme. I think the place you should look at is the market. In case you really want sense 4, there're Sense 4 ROMs.

Set CPU, the dev release it for free somewhere in this forum.

ROM Tool Box Lite, in the Market, free, doesn't let you create profile if you don't pay though

Never saw that in Stock GB.... but you can always do it in the settings

You can flash it yourself, just as the Wifi-calling. It's somewhere in this forum

I think Apollo is way better, it runs smoother, faster and plays more file types. The old one was really crappy. I have no idea why you would prefer that one over Apollo.

This is a known issue, I can't recall what causes this but it is solved by wiping the cache/gmail cache. Go to account & sync to check if the email sync is actually checked. Not AAB4's fault though.

Overall, I think a lot of things you ask for you can get it if you do some extra work instead of asking the dev to do some more work.
[G2 and Desire Z General] mazdarati2:
sense 4 rom does not have working camera's and camcorders.

Apollo is more laggy than the old one for me

Im a noob at denvelop. and im not gonna customize this rom because i can let my HTC crash very easy. and i like this thing
[G2 and Desire Z General] DinoSoup:
This is pointless, honestly. Some people would like these changes, some wouldn't. They can't take a stock experience and change it drastically just for you, and if you must, please PM them your "Sense based" ideas.
[G2 and Desire Z General] 83nn0:
Not sure on your other points but have to agree about Apollo. Not sure how anyone with a Desire Z would prefer that over the old music player when it does so much in Portrait rather than landscape....
