It has already been said :D there are also other 1000 thread of people complaining. And we should be glad for ICS in my opinion.
[Xperia Arc General] Nooby Arc S User:
Glad for ICS?! Your saying that its good that Sony only gave 1update to their flagship 2011 model?! :mad:

Sent from my Jellybeaned Arc S
[Xperia Arc General] deniel:
Glad for ICS means im glad we had it, other phones are stuck with GB o Froyo. 2011 "its old" we are at the end of 2012, we have quadcore now, our phone is considered old. Like lot of other without ICS. We also had it before lot of other, but ofc thats not enought.

Only cause GS II or Note are kind famous they will get JB(we had ics before them right?) but all other mobile? samsung wont upgrade them. same story for HTC and LG. SONY did a better job. I still love it, if i'll have money my next phone will still be an Xperia. If i bought a mobile it means cause it had all what i needed it for. So now with my Arc S with ICS (even with GB was enought) i can do all i need. Why should i complain? i payed a low price for such a great quality. If i wanted all last quadUSELESScore and JB or else i had to buy a 800 euro phone, but im not that crazy.
[Xperia Arc General] omtay2311995:
I don't give a damn when did sony give us ICS cus it sucks man at first they delayed alot then gave as a piece of crap

if you compare HTC and Samsung they gave a fully functional update way earlier than Sony did

and Sony is a piece of crap man they said that JB will not give us the experience we want and they demand I don't know how they mean by "we"

because until now ICS is not a pleasing ver for our Arc S and even the Nexus one is starting to get JB ports so why not our phones

Sony is making fun of us by saying that a pathetic xperia j is capable of handling what our toughass Arc S can't:silly::silly::silly::silly:

I hate Sony they make billions out of smartphones and other stuff and the don't want it to decrease by 0.00000001% by hiring more devs to work with all devices:(
[Xperia Arc General] deniel:
So u still havent understood that we dont get JB cause of our hardware but cause of marketing.

nope that is exaclly what i was trying to say:confused::confused:

I think that our arc S can't stand the Jelly Bean isn't a very well choice, because the Xperia J which is a less powerful phone that ours (1GHz) will be updated with the other 2012 devices but our Arc S and Arc (1.4GHz and 1GHz) will not recieve this update, this is a large failure by Sony :mad:
[Xperia Arc General] deniel:
Why dont people read? it has been said 1000 times. 2011 is old, phones go on, they cant "waste time" on old phones, they need to sell new one.

We don't need jelly bean cause so many awesome Roms!
[Xperia Arc General] quera:
I don't care about HDMI...

But what about Bravia Engine, Sony xLoud, and the super fast original sony camera apk?

I flashed FXP 145 and hated it. Then I flashed AOKP Build 5, which seems awesome. I'm using it for 4 days now. Its default camera is extremely buggy, featureless, ugly, and extremely slow!

I bought CameraZoomFx, which has lots of features, but it is yet extremely slow and not so simple to use as original sony camera apk.

The feature I love most in Arc is the camera. So if AOKP fixes camera it will be great!
[Xperia Arc General] tinyXperia:

[Xperia Arc General] azuremaroon:
I don't think Sony will give 2011 Xperia devices 4.1

Sony probably wants to separate 2011 phones from 2012's

So 4.0 is the max for 2011 phones even they are capable of upgrading to 4.1:(
[Xperia Arc General] arpith.fbi:
it really doesnt matter much if we get 4.1 update or not...we can always flick jelly beans from xperia s in future :D
[Xperia Arc General] SEK610i:
Because of this ignorant attitude from Sony (I know HTC and Samsung aren't much better) I am thinking of exchanging my beautiful arc S for a bit uglier and weaker (hardware side) but much more powerful (caused by software) Google Nexus S. Not to mention its superb audio quality.
[Xperia Arc General] papayayoghurt:
Even all 2011 XPERIA´s have the same Hardware, i dont think, Sony will update all Mobiles to Jelly Bean. I think, first Sony will say, that thy won´t update the Mobiles, also XPERIA arc S. Then I think, the people will be very unhappy. Then, 5 Month after Release, Sony will say, "Okay, because all people are unhappy with our update plans, we will release JB for arc S, Neo V and Ray, (and perhaps arc, but i dont think so;)) I think, they will say this in End of July, and we will get JB at the End of October. But I think, It will never run as smooth as GB, not even as ICS. i think it will run like a X10 with 2.3.3 with 100 Apps

Yes my friend I understand you very well, after all I have been in your position in the past :) I know why you can't post in dev threads you must write a number of posts before you are allowed there. It's in the rules of XDA. People should be prepared to read even 20 or 30 pages before asking a question - this is the way I learned all that stuff pretty quickly... I read a lot and don't post unless I can help someone. Sorry to all who have to read this long post :rolleyes: And now on-topic - I don't think Sony will make a JB ROM for us. If they would, somebody would have to know...
[Xperia Arc General] rec71:
I expected great things from the latest FXP 146 release but I still have reboots when playing videos, regular Gallery FCs when using the camera and Wi-Fi disconnecting when the phone sleeps - all issues that were mentioned as fixed in the changelog. So I've given up on JB for this device.

I'm now back on JJs Hybrid ROM and am ordering a Nexus 4 on Tuesday. I love my arc S but it's just too underpowered and I find it very frustrating to use. I will stick it on eBay, along with all the accessories and a 32GB SD card and will hopefully get a decent price for it.
[Xperia Arc General] tinyXperia:
My Wifi is fine on FXP, are you sure you ticked keep wifi on? They fixes the issue where the phone wouldn't automatically reconnect when getting in Wifi reach again.

YouTube still reboots indeed, I don't get why they say it's fixed. Have patience, If FXP themselves don't fix it, I bet that within a month other will.

[Xperia Arc General] flashrommad:
Well of course that is entirely up to you and I can see your point.What you have to remember is that corporations like Sony ae not interested in customer satisfaction, but the manufacture and developments of new product that reflect the ever increasing

There are plenty of ways to keep your arc s very usable, like the fabulous Jellysandwich or Xperia Ulimate just to name two.This site is worth twenty Sony Corporations on that point alone, it's well worth learning how to mod your phone and once you do you will be hooked !!

Don't be in such a rush to give your money away to another phone maker who might just, and probably will treat you the same.
[Xperia Arc General] bo6o:
You have a point also, but as we have given so much money on a product, we would expect proper maintaining, regular updating and customer orientated thinking. If the corp.s think only on hardware upgrades - so let them be free as software ones :laugh:

[Xperia Arc General] :
In my opinion there isn´t a stable JB rom for android at the moment, but there are several ICS based roms, which have integrated JB-Apps, Functions etc, which are fluently as hell...never experienced sth like that, e.g. Xperia T Mod (which I´ m using right now) is really good, battery friendly and gives you the latest xperia t apps... an alternative is Jelly Sandwich (at least till 7.2.1/7.3) which is at the moment one of the fastest roms... I really liked Ultimate HD rom, but never got much time to test it, that´s why i dont´t know if it is usable over a long periode....
[Xperia Arc General] Nooby Arc S User:

Apparently the camera issues are ROM based and not app based...unfortunate but oh well, I'll live. However, IMO the camcorder is improved in AOKP. If you compare stock ROM 720p footage with AOKP 720p footage, the latter has much better clarity.

How is it possible that Sony Xperia E with CPU 1GHz will be released with Android 4.1, and Xperia Arc S with much better clock can not expect an upgrade to Jelly Bean?

because it's a new phone? Isn't it obvious?

Yeah of course but as I remember Xperia ArcS couldn't have an upgrade because of 512RAM. So how Xperia E could? It means both phones are too weak to handle JB.
[Xperia Arc General] SammiSaysHello:
How xperia E could? Because Sony let it have JB based on the simple and obvious fact that xperia E is a newer phone. Companies don't upgrade solely based on the capabilities and limitations of hardware, but also from a financial and marketing point of view. To many people here do not realize that. It is one of the most simple business ethics businesses have

Now I am thinking, I don't care about all this upgrades.

What does futher upgrades of Android brings with to ArcS ? It's all about the smoothness, perhaps spherecamera, thats it. So I think if there is no big step in Android developemnt which is no worth a change of device. For my daily use ArcS is fine.
