[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] megamarini:
The thing that shock me is the total lack of information by sony... it's a shame....

I'm not so impatient to receive it, i can wait another month or 2 if they are workin' on it... but the reality is we don't know what are they doing....
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] K900:
They are working on stuff. It's kind of a Japanese mentality thing really.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] borgsta:
My phone has been up for 6 days now, I use a heap of apps and I just don't see the lag you are talking about. Using nova launcher but that shouldn't make that much of a difference. I also use the multitasking quite a lot.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] billerr.g:
Yup, ICS is buttery on my XP too (not to mention battery life is much much improved from GB)

I can't wait to see even more smoothness from JB's Project Butter...
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Elsydeon:
I think quite simply, people that have never experienced Jellybean in person, will think ICS is already smooth. In reality if you have a Galaxy Nexus running JB and the Xperia S with ICS side by side, the Xperia S will look like a horrendously laggy phone. I've had them side by side, and speaking from experience, the framerate difference is dramatic. A very obvious way to see the difference is to open up the task manager and swipe away an app to close it. In JB the app flys away very, very smoothly, in one motion. In ICS it is horribly jittery and seems to fly away in little steps.

I will say, the Xperia S should be an incredible phone with Jellybean, having nearly or exceeding the hardware specs of the Galaxy Nexus.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Benjo321:
Posted on the Xperia Product Blog today ...

So no time soon for the S by the look of it :(
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] skip0pot2mus:
Yup, doesn't really make sense

How long do they need?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] realfelix:
2013... Q1 mid.. that means to me february 15th.. thats 4 months to wait.. WHAT THE ****.. 7 months for a simple update from 4.0.4 to 4.1.2 .. that's not what i expected ..

the disappointing thing is not that sony will take that much time AGAIN, but that K900 and other sources said late october/early nov would be a good timeframe.. seems that got scattered aswell..

my decision is made, my next phone will be a nexus.. im tired of this..
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] KlemenKosir:
2013 Q1 is meant for the Xperia T, TX and V.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] realfelix:
You really believe that the S(Acro etc) will get the update earlier? Don't be that naive.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] capthor:
Stop whining fathead! You think you're smart enough huh! Grow up kiddo!
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] huntedsoul12:
This is just not funny anymore :/

I wonder what they have been doing all these time.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] realfelix:
Fathead. Now that's an insult. You tell me to grow up while you're just an immature kid that throws away words you don't even know. Remain quiet if you don't have anything constructive to post. Thank you ;)

I'll quote a member for you which explains exactly to which category you belong:
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] donjamal:
Err ppl, u're just simply stupid or can't understand what u read?! :-/ it says they'll be back later with details for the XS... Mid Q1 2013 is for T, V & TX.

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] realfelix:
We know. That does not mean that it will be much earlier does it?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] donjamal:
2011 line got the ICS update before the S so why would u b naive?

Sent from the outer space, delivered by an android
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] realfelix:
2011 line was really less powerful than the 2012 lineup, but now that is not the case, the T, V, TX etc are not that much more powerful than the early 2012 models.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] cikomiko:
there is still the possibility that nxt will receive a more basic jb update with relatively minor changes.

this could lead to an earlier release, while the arcs will receive a more advanced and improved uxp which will be similar to the jb version of 2013 models.

this would also make sense for sony, because there would be still reasons for customers to upgrade to newer phones.

if this is true, then well played sony, well played.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] HooLIMAN87:
What guy above you wanted to say is that phones who were released earlier got update earlier. And it means that it was harder to develop ics for less powerful devices.

So stop whining, go outside and take a long walk.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] realfelix:
When will you understand that I ain't whining about anything except that its unclear by the statement "due course"?

Anyways, thanks for clearing up.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] K900:
fujis and montblancs are to get JB earlier.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Vaste92:
They forgot U and Sola (I think it's just a typo). -.-
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] mirost1:
Sorry for noob question but what does "fujis and montblancs" mean? Thank you
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] realfelix:
Its the board name:

fuji = S, Acro S

montblanc = P, U , Sola(?)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] noim:
Yes I have used jelly bean. It is buttery and smooth . Come on you can't comapare ics to jb. They r both in different leagues..i am simply comparing the ics of others devices to my Xperia. And it is very fast when compared to others..
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Dr.Alexander_Breen:
Well, I know that they gonna do - just give us a slightly changed ui and little, if any new features.

but T,V and such will receive nice and good updates while being feature-rich.

Man, gonna trade my Xperia S to get Nexus.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] borgsta:
But the nexus won't get feature rich updates either.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Dr.Alexander_Breen:
Well, yeah, but at least I won't feel cheated when there is an update.

Like "Haha, you wanna this apps and cool features, right? Well, **** you, you ain't getting any, because we want you to buy a new smartphone, hahaha, so only then you will have them, but after it we'll create new smartphone, and everything will repeat again! Hahaha".
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Galaxen:
As if Xperia and Sony FW´s are feature rich.. Sony are more or less vanilla android with cooler look & feel.. Galaxy SIII... now thats a phone with features. I cant believe it can take this long for useless Sony devs to brinh JB with their basic UI.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] s-X-s:
See Samsung GSIII uk owners JB roll out started... But sony will wait until mid Q1 2012 to develope into their awesome firmware haaa.. how many devs in there in sony mobile 2 or 3 ....
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] panchuckles:
Developers sony team
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] josie87:
Are you guys paid for this? You are really botching around like small kids. Sonys ICS is perfect. They are keeping their promise with JB. What else do you want?

CM 9 seems to be stable soon, thanks to the FXP team. CM 10 may follow. I like CM way more than stock.

So guys, where is your problem? Relax a bit.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] lapocha5:
First of all, ICS is not perfect, still have bugs, and the only reason why we are complaining is because we want faster updates (IMO)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] gamesky:
compared to other company that releases so many phone models and only update the flagship model... (you know who)...sony is way better doing their job despite slower than other companies..at least multiple phones will be upgraded instead just one flagship model..
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] richteralan:
There's some reasons for that.

A flagship device is a device that establish your brand recognition. Not many people will buy it for sure, but it serves that important purpose. Basically a mobile holdable ads. You don't see any commercial about Samsung Champ Neo Duos, or LG C199, or HTC Explorer, or Sony Xperia tipo.

If you ignore flagship model and update other phones first, you are not doing a great job establishing the brand recognition, and your marketing priority is messed up.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] tel033:
+1

Btw I get that maybe 2011 phones are old for JB but they can easily handle it, and I know other companies doesn't update all phones but hey does that mean that XS won't get KLP cause maybe the cant guarantee the good experience..

Come on ics is still buggy and JB isn't coming any soon even gs2 is getting it earlier

Btw I'm a Sony fanboy so please don't say I like other manufacturers I just say what's true
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] borgsta:
What feature does the s3 have that you can't get on the Xperia line?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] josie87:
I can't find any bugs on my phone. Maybe I just can't see them. ICS is also smooth - yeah not as butter, but way better than GB. I mean guys! relax. Is there anything you can't do with your phone now? When you finally have JB you will play a bit "Wow this project butter is nice!" after that you may change wallpapers and then you start complaining about KLP.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] lee480:
I have to agree with you. Both my active and my U runs ICS fluidly.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Felimenta97:
Bravia Engine doesn't work on ICS for anyone who unlocked the bootloader when using ICS, no WiFi Direct, cane remember more.

"What really matters in this world, anyway?"
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Mr.Krypton:
does WiFi direct is working for locked bootloader :eek: I don't have a option to WiFi Direct
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Felimenta97:
No. It doesn't work. Only the Bravia engine is bugged by bootloader.

"What really matters in this world, anyway?"
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] qtunganh:
U might be very easygoing but the rest are not. For me, I don't think that customers want FW updates which are just as soon as or at least not so late than the other manufacturers is so much and the way Sony performs its after sales service is normal.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] superlimau:
My htc desire v, never updated since the day I bought it. Now who's not updating? :s
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] lee480:
Why are you noisy? Tell me, other than the S3 and the nexus, which devices actually had the Jb update? Seriously..
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] richteralan:
Ah...that type of person again.

Well I hope you never complained about anything in your life.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] HooLIMAN87:
You will never be happy person. ;)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] tel033:
By December galaxy note note 10.1 and galaxy sII, htc one x?

And I think note II already has it
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] lee480:
And that's only less that 5 phones? Compared to how many Sony is promising?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] richteralan:
I'm glad you came to that conclusion with that particular post in a particular phone forum.:good:
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] tel033:
You're right but again XS still a 2012 flagship and tw and tx should have been sold with JB in my opinion I'm just asking for a faster update, I know they'll stick to their promises
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] richteralan:
um...as I posted in other threads,

if Sony wants to get back to the smartphone market, being the same as other manufacturers won't cut it because that will make Sony as "another Android manufacturer".

If Sony wants to get better market share, they have to offer BETTER EVERYTHING compared to current established big players like Samsung and HTC.

But of course, if Sony feels comfortable about its market share then I will take above back.

From this point forward ALL Jellybean discussion will be here Jelly Bean for Xperia S, P, U, Sola, Acro S discussion

Hey guys i am new in this nexus forum, lil bit confuse what kernel i would try, how was your experience? And post your battery life here.

Thank you.

And i need some clue for how much nexus can handle UV, post your settings too. :)

Mod, i dont see any similar thread here and if this is against the rules feel free to close this :)

Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] remynaps:
Using trinity atm.

This is one of the smoothest kernels in my oppinion.

And the vibration control is a must for me :)

I get around 3h of screen on time on normal use

And welcome to the galaxy nexus forums :)

Got vibration control using the trinity kernel toolbox app in the play store.

I usually dont mess with the voltages so i guess they are all stock :P

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] miketoasty:
I like Faux, especially after GPU frequency scaling being added. Added some extra battery life to my device.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] aimcr7:
Is it need additional apps to add it?

How good ia battery life?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] miketoasty:
From what I know no extra apps needed, and I don't think it adds say an hour of battery life but it does add maybe 10 - 20 minutes. Obviously I can't run the exact same battery tests over but it does feel like my battery lasts longer. Could just be placebo though :p
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] aimcr7:
I mean overall battery life :p
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] thinksoul:
Currently trying out the Jame Bond Kernel. The attractive part of it is that it's already undervolted and so far seems stable. Feels like i get a bit of extra time, but it isn't a major difference.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] blitz911:
JameBond 3.4 and Franco milestone 6 are the kernels I use..both give great battery but JameBond 3.4 is pretty stock and Franco has a bunch more features..
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] aimcr7:
Bump!

What kernel do you recommend for best battery life?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] crixley:
Trinity a63 gives me about 4 hours of on screen time
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] chickentuna:
Trinity or franco. Not much difference with battery life between the two. Pick whatever you like

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kyokeun1234:
I think you should ask for the ROM too OP, because ROM can effect battery life too.

I personally am using AOKP build 4, with Franco nightly kernel, and this phone flies! I get about 3:30 screen on average, bit if I'm constantly using it, around 4

Swyped on my Galaxy Nexus running AOKP with Franco Kernel
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] aimcr7:
I already do my own research with rom. But i hardly find my best settings with kernel. I used to be a sensation and xperia user, and both device have minimal kernel settings, i can easily found my best settings.

But so much things i dont even know what it is, i will learn but need some help :)

And too much kernel here, but nothing so popular, so it makes my work a lot harder. :p

Anyway thanks mate ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] gkaurin:
I agree, the rom has just as much to do with battery life, I used Franco on must of the 4.1 roms and wasn't happy with the life. I am now running 4.1.2 stock kernel and am loving the life as well as how fast a smooth my gnex is.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] welingtonhs:
Use trinity kernel, the kernel better, long battery life and great performance ...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] IAreKyleW00t:
I use Air Kernel. highly customizable with all it's governors and I/O's; plus it's really stable for me. I especially love it because of the SmartAssV2 governor - it's my all-time favorite one. ^_^

I run 384/1512 with the SmartAssV2 governor and SIO I/O scheduler. I ALWAYS keep my brightness on 50%, Wifi On, Data, 4G, Sync and allow google's location service for some apps. I can go through an entire day of school (starting at 100% battery) and leave with 60~65%. I could probably get even longer battery if I lowered the clock speed - maybe adjust the voltages; but that's tedious and risky for me. xD

Currently, I'm testing this with another one of my favorite apps, Easy Battery Saver. It automatically turns Wifi, GPS, Data, etc off after X amount of time while the screen is off and turns them back on (within 10 seconds usually) once you unlock the phone. It also completely turns those off when it's night-time - since you'll be sleeping anyways. :P
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nyjohn:
I usually jump around from Franco and trinity, and i am currently on trinity a67, pretty good idle battery drain plus good performance.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] I Am Marino:
Going to give Air Kernel a try.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] melo1819:
How's this? Running Franco M6.

Oh yeah, got that sprint extended battery. :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] _chanstar_:
If its just Kernel in general, without battery issues due to offending apps or a dirty network, I'd recommend Franco.

His latest nightly (r295) is fast and smooth with the option to set your Min Freq to 192MHz, which saves more battery. Since I installed this Kernel and undervolted 192MHz to 750mV, it does so well on battery, I was able to use some offending apps while maintaining great battery life. Check it out.
[Android Themes] L0hki:
Sorry for the double post, but I figure it's time for a bit of an update.

Since my initial post, I've figured out how to automate a lot of things, which has allowed me to start populating a lot of the content (i.e. upload sh--tons on icons!). As of this post, IconsDatabase.net lists 43 different sets, for a total of 16,000+ icons! I'm adding more each day.

You can now follow the latest icon sets added to the site via RSS.

I'm also starting to dive into Android development, and will look at building an app to easily select icons from a launcher for quick theming.

Looking forward to getting people's thoughts.
[Android Themes] L0hki:
Another quick progress report...

I've added basic discussion boards to the site. That's by no means the most important feature, but I figured I'd get a little community interaction going, or at least the potential for it.

You can also subscribe to pages now to receive emails when they are updated or a new comment is posted. This should be especially useful for artists that want to be instantly notified of comments posted to their page or icon sets.

I may add a "request an icon" to the site soon(ish), whereby you could directly request icons for a specific app in an icon set and the artist could review the most requested apps to know what to work on next. I could also use this to generate a global "most requested apps" page so artists know what to start with for new sets.

Thoughts?

Hello world? Y u no replies? :p
[Android Themes] sammyycakes:
Thanks for making something like this and working so hard on it. As a designer I really appreciate it.
[Android Themes] oddspec:
Nice job hopefully ur not the one who linked all of bbb 's drop box links to this site and crashed his box again locking us all out but other than that great find
[Android Themes] L0hki:
Thanks for the posts guys. I was beginning to worry only zombies were visiting the site. Glad to know people are finding it useful. That's why I work on this kind of thing. :cool:

If anyone has any feature requests or suggestions, now's the time, so let me know.

Good to know it's appreciated by designers. I've created an artist page for you here, and features your sets here, here, and here. If you care to register on the site, I'll make you the owner of those pages so you can make any changes. You can also subscribe to any of them to get email notifications when they are modified or comments are added.

Nah, everything's linked to BBB's Tumblr blog. The icons I have on the site are also mirrored, so there won't be additional bandwidth on his Dropbox account. That reminds me ... I need to add the rest of his sets.
[Android Themes] sammyycakes:
Well thank you I appreciate that. I joined. My username is sammyycakes
[Android Themes] buzzboy:
Great site I must say.

I appreciate your efforts on this. Very handy indeed. Easy to navigate, and mobile friendly.

Everybody needs to see this!

Cheers again OP, and I wish you luck and hope that you receive more backing from further Artists in the future.

Regards
[Android Themes] L0hki:
I set you as the owner of your artist page. Would you see if you can edit it for me? Feel free to add any info there.

Yeah, if it's not mobile friendly, then it would kind of defeat the purpose. ;) It should be even more friendly within the next few months as I learn my Android programming and develop the companion app. Then all you'll have to do is select the app and browse to the icon you want when editing launcher icons.

New Ideas (need feedback)

I'm playing around with a new new ideas, and would like to know how people feel about them, and which features you would like to see implemented first.

Ratings

I'll probably be adding a 1-5 star rating system for artists, icon sets, and icons. This should be pretty easy. You'll also be able to sort things by rating.

My Apps

I'm thinking of letting people flag apps that they use. This way you could see a quick list of all your favorite apps.

Personal Custom Sets

Say you like the Gmail icon from one set, but you like the Shazam icon from another. Personal Custom Sets would let you combine icons into a single set.

Download Launcher Icon Packs

This would let you download auto-generated launcher packs and apks for easy installation on your phone. You could do this for official icon sets, or for personal custom sets (described above.)

Thoughts?
[Android Themes] sammyycakes:
Yes I can edit it. Thanks :]
[Android Themes] DSaif:
In order:

1) Download Launcher Icon Packs (If you need code for Apex & Nova I have that)

2) Ratings

3) Personal Custom Sets

4) My Apps

Please make the site design & logo better.. Will be even better if it's Holo Inspired. Let me know if you need any HTML/CSS help.
[Android Themes] L0hki:
Thanks for taking the time to let me know in what order you'd like to see features implemented.

I'm sure I'll be able to figure out the icon pack structure, but if you want to send some code (or links to tutorials) my way, it'd save me the 60 or seconds of searching I'd have to do. :)

I agree that the site's design is horribly lacking. I'm a programmer, and am not very good at design. What I need most is design mockups (PSDs for example) that I can translate into the site's template. I like the idea of a Holo color scheme. If anyone wants to take a crack at a design, I'd be most grateful, and would of course give them credit in the site's footer.

P.S. DSaif, I take it those three icon sets you uploaded are actually icon backgrounds that style existing icons?
