[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Ananay Singh:
I updated my XP to JB two days ago. Here's a quick review for the time I've used it:

1. Old kernel, 3.0.8+, but bug free. I haven't encountered any bugs till now

2. The camera works fine. My camera bug was fixed in the previous .175 update, but for those still with the bug, well JB fixes it.:D

3. The UI is now the same as on the latest xperias (eg. Xperia Z). All the new improvements and app updates are there

4. Overall battery life is more or less same as on ICS. the new stamina mode and low battery mode work as expected

5. The new task switcher is present, minus the small apps

6. All the media apps have been updated, i really do like he new changes.

7. The keyboard has been tweaked. better now

8. Google Now is awesome. to start google now tap on the google search widget. It works better than i had imagined, it's already pulling scores for my favorite football team, the weather is there, it automatically give me the traffic updates when i go to college, and as i was typing this, it gave me the list of cinema halls where iron man 3 is showing :D

9. overall the phone has become much faster. but for some reason, quadrant benchmark scores have dropped.

10. notification sounds are working properly now.

11. There's this new 3-D animation while scrolling through home screens. there arenow a maximum of 7 home screens, with the option to remove them. One thing, in jelly bean icons and widgets should move out of the way or rearrange themselves while adding a new widgets, but this doesn't happen in the case of sony updates.

here's the catch, i first take a backup of my contacts and stuff. then i factory reset the phone, erase all contents and settings, so that the phone is like a brand new one. i update my phone after doing all this. then i restore the contacts and stuff from the backup. this is a cumbersome process, but it ensures that the update is done properly without any glitches. i applied the .175 update after following the above steps and my camera bug was fixed, while many people, who updated the usual, way still had the bug.

one more thing, JB 4.2 is under work. :cool:

both the Xperia P and S will get it. Xperia S will get 3.4 kernel with JB 4.1 update. it will contain all the new stuff like camera improvements and small apps. Xperia P will get kernel 3.4 with the JB 4.2 update. Both these phones will get 4.2 for sure, but it will be the last update for both these phones
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] zcffcz:
Xperia S and P will not get the JB 4.2
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Ananay Singh:
they will
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] lee480:
No. Xperia P most probably will end at 4.1. For Xperia S maybe 4.2.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] zcffcz:
where did u get this information？
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Ananay Singh:
both these phones WILL get it. i have confirmed sources. but the updates will be be basic updates. they will miss the major features like lockscreen widgets, camera photosphere etc. the 4.2 update will be like the 4.1 update for Xperia J, just the basic improvements.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] zcffcz:
as far as i know, xperia s&p will not get 4.2, but xperia tx may get the 5.0 in the future.........
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Jaycel0820:
we all never know what sony will do in the future
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] setya5785:
i create ftf file from the update and flash using flashtool, it work now
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] CrazyXperiaA:
As far as I know, lockscreen widget ability IS the basic improvement of 4.2
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] lee480:
Yeah. Xperia P will most likely end at 4.1. Xperia S might get 4.2 but I'm leaning on the other side. Sony is kind of erratic though :)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Pandemic:
you talking about 4.2 and 5.0 if 4.1.2 is yet out, kinda useless :/
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Zap_12100:
So, I have some confirmed sources that say the next Xperia phone will have a 4000mah battery with bezel-less 5" screen.

Yeah ... I'd suggest keeping your "sources" out of the question until something more reputable comes to light. Sorry, but it's too easy to fake something on the internet.

(We haven't even heard rumours of the 2013 Xperias getting 4.2...)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Felimenta97:
NXT stops at 4.1. S doesn't also have 4.2 sources, and I don't think they will build an update without sources. And, also, it was confirmed by many people we won't go past 4.1 anyway.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] zcffcz:
you mean the phoneblet which has 6.44'' screen?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Jaycel0820:
i just flash JB and my phone is flying

anyways i flash THP kernel and my bluetooth stops working so i just flash a stock kernel and luckily root is not removed

edit: i dont know but bravia engine still not working
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] kudaj316:

I don't know what's going on with Sony because I can't upgrade yet.

I bought my phone last saturday and it is the first Android phone that I've ever had so I don't know how to root or flash

and honestly, I don't even know exactly what they mean.

Do you recomend me to root the phone? Because I want it updated and the upgrade hasn't come yet here in Spain (as far as I know)

And if you recomend me rooting the phone, which one? Sorry if I don't explain myself very well, I'm a noob in Android.

Thanks

You Are A Noob On XDA Developers.

I will advise you NOT to follow the advice of 99% of the people on this forum. Do NOT root it if you are less than a week into Android.

Plug your phone into your computer - it will tell you to install PC Companion (unless you've installed it already). Once PC Companion is installed it should tell you if you can get the update. If you can, great! Download it and follow the instructions. If not, that sucks, you'll have to just check every day and wait until Sony releases it for you.

As for the definition of root and flash, I suggest you search around on Google/YouTube, there are some good explanations. DON'T ask anyone here, they might be rather unhelpful to you.

Enjoy your stay at xda developers! :good:

I have already installed PC Companion but it says that my phone has the latest version...and now I don't know what happens

to my phone, Wi-Fi its not working properly and it gets slowers sometimes. Should I restore it?

As for the root advice, I will follow it, thanks.

One more thing, I downloaded SUS and I can't open it for some reason, anyone knows why?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Ben Ling:
yeah Xperia P will be on 4.1 only,Sony won't upgrade it to 4.2 as FXP says NovaThor U8500 ends on 4.1 JB.

While Xperia S,i don't think it will get JB as it is old model,they focus on new flagship only.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] kudaj316:
hey dude!!! dont say something offensive here on xda, 99% percent?really? your not even credible to say that!, dont try to say false statements based on your own opinion,..and it only means that your included on the 1% who speaks the truth which is also false...if you want to help be polite and friendly,..

When I downgrade to GB the 3G & data conection works fine, in ICS not, but only works when I install a CM9 custom ROM

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Zap_12100:
It's admittedly my personal experience reading these forums before I signed up. 99% is hefty exaggeration, I apologize about that. I have encountered a few people around this site who never seem to take the time to explain things to people who are new here. Easiest example that comes to mind is when I had yet to sign up and tried to figure out what rooting was, nobody ever actually explained what it really was, just how to do it - I had to search YouTube to find the answer. The people in this device forum seem quite nice, and I didn't intend to imply I'm the 1% or anything like that.

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

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] OverdiveKill:
Not true... Ics games laggy and jb smooth... For me at least
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] percy_g2:
You should know how to use your device then. First all where crying for jelly bean now its laggy.JB is butter smooth for me :rolleyes:
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] devynx:

after 2 days of intense use i can say jb is much smoother and fast than ics. the main problem at least for me is always gps-related .. it takes ages to lock a satellite... :(
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] GiorgosCyprus:
LOL, firstly I know how to use my device, and second i never cried like others for the jelly bean update! Also JB is smooth for me too, only on games it laggs

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] optimusprime87:
just updated xp jb. Found three bugs:

1. sms center number is showing as unknown

2. numbers on equalizr not correctly aligned but its just a design issue as equalizr works fine.

3. when we turn off screen by pressing power button then there is not animation( screen turns off instantly) but it works fine on restart and that too for 1 time only upon every restart.

Is anyone getting the 3rd issue on their mobile??

overall its much smoother than ics.Great work done by Sony. :)

P.S. regarding the 3rd issue- i've checked the animations in developer options, they are set correct but still getting the issue

Offical JB is more changed then ICS

Superfast with root and cpu control on locked bootloader

you can delete crap stuff with root explorer, if you have root

Design nice, if you dont like it, buy a Samsung or HTC

In all ways better then ICS

This update so far is horrible for me, at times Its jelly bean smooth, but mostly it stutters also Im sometimes listening to music, not using the phone for anything else and the music is lagging and unable to play, various other unstable problems and too much bloatware, on the plus side the keyboard accuracy is much improved, the sound quality also. I cannot really complain because I haven't yet done a factory reset, hoping that will improve the stability

How can i see if the bravia engine is working or not? Im not really sure what it does.

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Ordwark:
Hey,

I've updated my Xperia P yesterday, and today faced some problems with increased battery drain. When I examined my battery graph, it showed that the phone doesn't go to sleep when the screen is off, resulting in my battery is completely dead in 4-5 hours. Enabling STAMINA fixes it, but I don't want it to be active all the time. When I was on ICS, "sleep" line was matching screen "off" time on battery graph, and now apparently something blocks sleeping...any ideas?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] dangeradit:
Bravia engine is meant for enhancing your viewing experience and stunning picture quality.

Wanna see it does,untick it from settings/display and check yourself

Since most of sonys phones require the phone service provider to upgrade the OS I guess JB wont come as it will be such a hassle, ICS just came a month ago, so im guessing its about the end for the NXT devices

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] K900:

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] cikomiko:
sony will hopefully skip the initial jb release and jump to 4.2 jb like they did with froyo on the x10 :)

a release q1 2013 would be then really up to date.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] zodiac100:
Yeah that seems likely considering their past record. 4.1 always seemed to me to be one they'd skip considering how late they were with ics. At least there's a chance their 2013 line might come with up to date software like last year.

The trouble for Sony is their 2013 line will probably have the 1.5 ghz s4 pro while others might have faster clocks. That makes no difference to me but it'll put them a step behind.

For me the only thing that'll remove them from the equation completely is if they launch with 4.1. 4.2 Will be fine because to be honest I don't need more than dual core.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Csaba123:
By the time we get Jelly Bean, there will probably be lime key pie custom roms for us.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] cikomiko:
well s4 pro will be outdated 13th nov as google nexus 10 will have samsungs a15 exynos chip.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] K900:
Wrong. The 'A15' Exynos chip is not faster, and might even be a bit slower than the S4.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Loris93:
K900,do you know if they will release 4.2 instead of 4.1?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] MadManMark:
Of course not, be realistic please
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Loris93:
It's nonsense working on an old android version that will be released after months and months,so i'm realistic.

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Csaba123:
Couldn't they just skip Jelly bean and go straight to Lime Key pie?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Deniz.S:
Android 4.2 is still Jelly Bean. I don't see why they won't be able to upgrade to 4.2 at a later date. Probably done most of the hard work for 4.1 already.
