ICS for U8500, not fuji.

I do have it and it's nice and stable just like it was for me on the S. I can't give any exact dates, but somewhere in next few weeks.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] SEFanX10i:
K900, any news on whether the 2011 devices are getting JB too ? :)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] K900:
Not yet decided I think, but if they do get it, they get it after 2012 devices.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] KeiranFTW:
That's good work from Sony, they should update their newest devices first. I think it will pan out this way, they shall release it for 2012 devices and then they will release beta roms for the 2011 line for testing and feedback.

A little off-topic, but Jellybean is so much smoother than ICS on my Xperia PLAY, really is as smooth as butter.

One thing Sony could do thought, is release docs.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] soulhackereborn:
U already do have it??? On which device??? :what:
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] K900:

Will the changes be same as the Xperia S or a bit different?

Guys, if 2011 series got ICS, 2012 series will get JB of course.

Sony has the best overall software update.

Unlike samsung only update their newer phones.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] AwesomeTurtle:
Meh. JB will arrive when it does and I can't imagine much changing outside of what comes standard with 4.1.X.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] ssj_jaypee:
Google is planning to release yet another new OS update with their new Nexus device at the end of this year.

I can't believe we do not have Jellybean yet!!

By the time we get it, we will have outdated firmware yet again. :(
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] tel033:
Exactly that's a shame what was thinking anyway
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Anarkau:

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] tel033:
What bugs me is that XS is still a flagship maybe not the current but still, gs2 is getting JB soon and we don't!

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] wisnuhadi23:
K900, the firmware for s3 mini is out. It's running jelly bean and has the same chipset as U,P,Sola and Go.

Could there be any possibility that it would help FXP team to develop CM10 for U8500 novathor devices ? I just hope it would.

"What really matters in this world, anyway?"
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] josie87:
Oh yeah, I already wondered where this post went to ;) . Sure, it really doesn't belong here.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Scirwode:
Quite a lot of words have been said in this thread about Sony and its slow update policies and how other manufacturers are now releasing Jelly Bean already (HTC & Samsung). To be honest, as much as I would like Jelly Bean on my Xperia S, I still like my device compared to what's being offered by HTC and Samsung.

That said, I still mantain that the AOSP version of Android is good enough and there is no need to put in stuff (Cyanogenmod, XperiaKang, MIUI) in the experience as AOSP is more than good enough, especially with 4.2 coming out.

My dearest wish is for a pure AOSP version of JB for the Xperia S, without any of the frills or addons. I still love my Sony but my device will be a Nexus device as I just want my updates quickly, that's all :) .

Scirwode
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] sdato001:
Probably Xperia S owners will be getting JB from Google before the Sony update, it all depends on the Gooogle AOSP project for Xperia S:

https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/android-building/zji_sQGN9Oo

http://developer.sonymobile.com/201...qs-vanilla-android-xperia-s-project-download/

I really don't know whats the project status.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] K900:
We won't be getting updates from Google ever. This is just an experiment, and it's going to remain so.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] reptile64:
Bad for them! :p
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Scirwode:
Wish it wasn't though. Any chance of you releasing an AOSP Xperia S rom for the purists :p ?

Scirwode
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] K900:
That'll need a lot of work to get running. Why not just use CM or AOKP or whatever and turn off the custom features? I'm not sure about CM, but you can totally get the stock look in AOKP.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Scirwode:
I guess I am more of a purist. I just started using CM10 and yes, it does have the stock look but behind the scenes there are extra services running (Theme Chooser) and applications (Apollo Music Player) that I don't really need. Yes, you can remove it and so on and so forth but I guess my point is that Google has done the best it can to develop Android and that the experience should be that way.

However, I am grateful that we have a fully working CM build, and one that is stable at that :good: !

I am going with the nexus 4 guys... Selling my XP, I cant wait that long for such a minor update to JB. Plus I don't have to add that much money to buy a nexus 4 and get early updates.. So going with the nexus flow
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] ObserverBG:
:)

Just my thoughts since yesterday...

+one more reason - the XP battery. Quite a sad story.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] SharpnShiny:
I quite agree, it's so dramatic.

Anyway, about Jelly Bean, I'm concerned about something now - the limits of our 2012 phones. I keep coming across users (especially in the Sony forum) who have probelms which eventually seem connected to RAM. I thought, looking at open and cached apps that Sony's version of ICS aggressively managed RAM. I have the Sola and have now joined the list of many users with probelms, which even Sony themselves suggested may be RAM.

I know JB will concentrate on fluidity etc. (buttery is such an awful adjective) so RAM requirements ought not to be more taxing ... but after about 6 months of my phone being available, they still have some big software problems.

Hmm :confused:
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] K900:
JB uses about the same amount of RAM. The Montblanc hardware should be able to run it without any problems.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] linsbr:
Being a former owner of a U and now having a P, i have to disagree K900...

ICS was not so smooth on the U, really laggy, trying to use the dialler or open the contacts started to take up quite a time, Chrome was a real nightmare...

On P these features run smoothly, so we can only blame the lack of RAM, since it's the only big difference between these 2 phones specs performance wise
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] K900:
I'm pretty sure your install is to blame here. Updating to major versions of Android without a clean install can cause weird stuff to happen.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] linsbr:
Yeah, maybe, since my P is brand new and I made the update to ICS right after taking it out of the box..

But I've tried full wipe and re-installing ICS on the U for like.. four times and it didn't got any better.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] lee480:
After reinstalling ICS and wiping data etc, I can confirm that my Xperia U became very smooth.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] matood:
sola

I've got sola (the same specs as U), great phone. I tried ICS and got rid of it because battery went down quite fast. But after a week a decided to try again. I flashed ICS global version, wipe all data, root, got rid of some bloatware (just disable in applications), phone is very smooth, no lags nothing. It's perfect.

The story about the battery is, at least I think, just mind f***. Now is on for 1d 18h and still 50left (flight mode during sleep). In GB you can't see the percentage and i did not watch on that that much, in ICS is percentage visible and you can see every single percent going down which drag your attention... Otherwise updates, it is not so important as most of you think. It's still only a phone...
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] richteralan:
Have you tried just use the phone without any music files and downloaded apps? Just the bare system?

Also have you wiped the internal storage?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] linsbr:
I tried wiping the internal storage... but never used the phone without apps and music... Just cleaned everything, installed ICS, let the phone working for some time.. after a couple of hours gave it a reboot, started downloading my apps and then putting back my music

So I can't say that I used the bare system for a long time.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Vaste92:
News from Sony Mobile IT:

SXU, Sola, Tipo, Miro will have JB and, also, they said Sony is preparing a plan for the release of the update.

It's in italian: post on facebook
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] K900:
Just as planned :)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] richteralan:
This doesn't add much info from the last sony blog post.

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

The point is trying to find out what caused the lag.

If there's no lag in the bare system then it must be caused by either your music or apps.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Felimenta97:
Apps I know can cause lag, but how music can cause it?

"What really matters in this world, anyway?"
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] richteralan:
some of the tags/embedded album art will cause lag when the system doing media scan.

Also some FLAC encoder may have improperly encoded .flac footer.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] linsbr:
It makes sense.. good point!

Anyway, now I'm with a Xperia P with the same (and a lot more) songs and apps, lag free! :victory:

Guess I just needed an excuse to upgrade my phone
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] SharpnShiny:
What does this mean, I can't access the site, it says I have to register. All the 2012 phones will get Jelly Bean?

Cosa dice il site, non posso leggere niente, devo registrare. Tutti i telefonini nel anno 2012 riceveranno Jelly Bean? :victory:
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] richteralan:
Yes. "WHEN" is the most important thing. Sony can release JB update in 2014 and still call it "we delivered JB update" but at that time JB will be irrelevant.

Same thing happened with LG Optimus 2X (G2X), LG said yes we will, but keep delaying and ultimately, just released ICS source and that's it.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] MrBelter:
Its a statement of protest clear and visible for Sony to see, they read these forums so surely you could have worked that out.

I dont even want JB on my XS, seems to me the battery will last about 25 minutes with it.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] MrBelter:
Why then, with your superior wisdom don't you be more constructive and come up with some worthy ideas rather just whining about what people post?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] mzr7:
Ignoring the wars going on here.

K900 will we get miracast? And extended standby mode. Like the xperia t and TX got today be it in the jelly bean update ?

I'm not a techie I just audit stuff so if the answer is no is it even possible considering the processor etc in the xps?

The updated Sony media apps I guess are a certainty right?

Ps if anyone could point me to something to get an understanding of cm and aokp etc be it on other forums thanks in advance. I'm thinking of finally rooting and going custom rom and advice or links would be helpful.

Dm me about it don't clutter the thread :)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] lee480:
OT: Go Singaporean!

I don't know why some people is *****ing badly, when they refuse to compare with other companies wonderful update progress? Other than Sammy and HTC, who else guaranteed a Jelly Bean upgrade?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] realfelix:
Google :D
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] lee480:
Google never guarantee anything. They just roll it out fast.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] SharpnShiny:
Well they did promise the Play would get updated, gave out the beta ROM then cancelled. Some surprises could still be in play!

I still don't get why they didn't mention the missing phones in the original annoucnement. That's not a mistake or an error to me. Why wouldn't they add a small clarifying note or hit the EDIT button like they have with other anncouncements. The missing phones may well be updated but I'm still curious about this point. PR isn't an accidental business.

As for when, mid Q1 is of course February. From the 2012 phones ICS update, we can say two things probably, it will be the *last* few days of February and most people won't get the updates for weeks later, so we will be again looking for ftfs. :good:

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Felimenta97:

"What really matters in this world, anyway?"
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Hurmke:

Ok thanks for the info!
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] josie87:
About the Play:

It's a sad thing, but in that thing I understand Sony: the performance of 2011 ICS is a bit worse than GB. Sure it's smoother, but the gaming performance decreased. Since the play is about gaming I understand the canceled update. It's sad anyway. Maybe CM helps?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] lee480:
They cancelled the update because the joypad went hire wire with ICS.

So now this post can focus on when the sweet jelly bean will come to our beloved montblancs...

If they come to U and Sola at all... =\
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] SharpnShiny:
I don't know a lot about where those particular codenames/architecture come from - montblancs and isn't there two more in the 2012 Sony family? Can anyone provide a run-down or a link?

Also, what's the general opinion now - do some people still think we'll see JB in 2012? I don't see why it wouldn't be Q1 2013 like they said. :confused:
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] linsbr:
Montblancs are the P, U and Sola .. Also there are the Fujis (S, Acro S and Ion) and the Blues (T, TX, J...)

As for when JB is coming, there where those rumors about Fujis and Montblancs receiving JB before the newer models (Just as the 20111 line got ICS before the NXT series), but since they still just rumors and the end of the year is getting closer... I guess we have to wait for 2013.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] josie87:
I also think that JB will be out this year. I even believe that the new certified fw-version on ptcrb might be JB. We will see.

Mainly Project Butter + some cosmetics.

Project butter, in short, is about bringing smoothness to Android.

Anyone that as compared (I have) an iPhone4 or any WP7 phone with

any

Android phone, will obviously see the real lake of smoothness of Android.

Project butter is a bunch of improvement (vsync, triple buffering, etc ...) to reduce the gap between Android and "the others".

That said, I don't think Android will be as smooth as iOS or WP til a long time, because of inner architecture fundamental differences.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] DeepMemory:
Well HTC just dropped JB updates for their phone with 512MB ram and below and Sola only have actual 388MB :crying:
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] SharpnShiny:
Yeah, I still don't think Sony leaving Sola and other phones out of the JB announcement was a mistake. We could be told we're not getting it. I'm not yet aware of any official announcement of the Sola being in that update.

CyanogenMod 10 release Xperia U

So i heard About a large mass of Phones getting Jelly Bean love for CyanogenMod 10 . SO how Come I still Don't see XPeria U on the List. Thought it should be having an OK rating of being JB capable (and The CM Team have JB for Galaxy Ace and its elk.).Any ideas on when a stable CyanogenMod 10 release will be out?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] andryush:
You realy think that 512MB RAM HTC phone has actual 512mb user avaiable ram?

Why it's only ~380mb of free ram in 512mb phones? It's because of system core components require ~130mb(?idk exactly)of memory to run, so you have 512-130=382mb.

Don't worry about jb for your phone. Sola, XU are powerfull phones, i think that theres no problem in getting jb work on our phones. The only question here is how many memory it needs to operate.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] espaciosalter20:
Well I used to have a Motorola defy, same memory than sola and locked bootloader. Devs of that device achieved 4.1.2 (now, 4.2 is being tested) and loaded custom kernel on locked bootloader...and defy it's a single core device, so imagine the possibilities for our dual core Xperia sola....

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] MadManMark:
I think it has something to do with that the development of most roms is based off the work of FXP in cyanogenmod, so the people developing aokp or miui are working with releases from FXP, and FXP is on CM9 (ICS) at the moment
