I don't wanna say much. I know that everyone does make mistakes, so we should not mind them.

I go Sony Xperia Go with ICS. I too agree there is no pointing bashing Sony since for me if a phone fulfill one's need then it does not matter whether it has GB or ICS or JB. Since most of the apps and games available run well in my Sony Xperia Device. I am satisfied with Sony
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Galaxen:
Seriously?! Sony UI is vanilla android with cool & great color themes and that useless timescape. Walkman & album apps are also nice but apart from that there's not so many features standing out from Samsung or HTC. Sony didn't even have notification bar toggle until now. I'm finding it hard to find extra Sony exclusive features.

Sony UI is vanilla droid? :crying: Like Google's android works out of the box? Just like that? :eek:

gosh... tell me I didn't read this.

I had a HTC before the SXS and the software was CRAP... laggy, buggy, crashy, not optimized at all, they never even tried to FIX it. Same with Samsung, laggy, buggy, crashy. Samsung devices actually make that up with quadcore's and stuff. You can actually tell that Sony is putting a lot of effort in optimizing their software for their phones.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] doministry:
Totally agree, observing the evolution from X10/Arc/S.

The progress is huge.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] lokenok:
Yea Sony Rules even if they dont update the 2011 line , its ok because i am going to move on to another sony phone ( xperia v ) , Manufacturers wont update phones for a lifetime!! , phones need to get discounted every now and then .... its good sony released ics for whole 2011 line ( no play ) and look at htc , moto and samsung.... Moto just finished updating devices to ICS ..... Samsung selects only a few to upgrade ( mostly flagships) .....

Be happy that Sony has updated atleast ICS and they said "we will continue to improve ICS software on your phones"

!
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] MrBelter:
Fair enough but if you cant understand the frustration people show when they have either not received promised updates or are having to put up with buggy firmwares when all the while Sony remain tight lipped then you are just one of the dickheads and arseholes to be honest, only difference is you are trying to take the moral high ground. Hot fixes for things like proximity sensors, data, bluetooth audio etc. should happen quickly, Sony already have the firmware and have been working with it for months.

Sony is its own worst enemy unfortunately.

FWIW telling people you are leaving a forum is one of the oldest tricks in the book, it is like telling someone you are going to commit suicide, you are just after the attention.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] amarjit_rsingh:
I don't think Sony ever told that Xperia 2011 will be getting JB at the first place. But it was 2011 users expecting JB since lot of them have similar specs to 2012 devices. So to expect Sony let them down by not upgrading 2011 xperia to JB is not proper
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] arw9000:
I think people just feel a bit let down. The whole 'android gang' or whatever it was called was about updates for 18 months. Now all of the manufacturers are guilty of this (and it's why I think there are so many new Nexus devices because Google know it didn't work) but people feel a bit conned. It's one thing not having new OS versions but another entirely to have many bugs unfixed for so long.

Customers are of course ungrateful gits. The more you give the more they demand...
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Galaxen:
Like the first ICS for SXS was smooth as butter? After Sony had over 9 months to optimize it?! Gimme a break, what Sony needs is to employ more software developers so they can do the job faster and more efficient. You get the feeling that Sony has 3-4 guys coding etc...

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] krabappel2548:
Why bother when after a few days/weeks after the release of the phone, more and more stock based roms and kernel started to come here that were fast, smooth and working almost perfect. When ICS came out we devs did everything to make the firmware faster, smoother and more stable. But I do get the point of Keiran, some people are never satisfied and keep complaining even if you explain them the same thing a thousand times...

I just put my hatred for those aside and help them anyway, how annoying they even are. We are devs for a reason and that's to support the community in every possible way :)

Have I had negative experiences with members here on XDA: YES, did I ever started to talk **** about them: NO. There is no need to do this. Just contact the moderators and they will handle the problems. I've had problems with one member, and eventually he was banned (not going to call a name). Our moderators do their work excellent. So why not contact them, they are here for a reason. Not only users, but everyone needs to start thinking about what they have written before they click on the reply button and post bad stuff..

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Galaxen:
That's if you have the knowledge and know how to throw in custom kernels and roms. I know I am.. but Aunt Daisy who finally bought something flashy doesn't. ;) That is then Sonys responsibility to get it to work properly front min 1.

I totally agree with you with the rest though. :thumbup:

Also I wonder why devs here are so much better in fixing & tweaking than devs working for gigantic companies?!

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] zodiac100:
To the OP, Sony certainly take their time alright. Trouble is it doesn't seem to make any difference. Their software is still buggy and one of if not the slowest android firmware around.

You sound like a simple fanboy upset that others criticise your beloved brand. Well good luck with that.

I live my life by very simple rules and one of them is call a spade a spade and as far as software development goes Sony are crap. Period. All eye candy and little else.

At least the other major manufactures have current software even if buggy as you claim. Sony on the other hand are late late late and their software is still buggy. That deserves criticism in my book. If you're happy with what you're getting back. Good you can say you are but others aren't and are equally entitled to say so.

Stop moaning about others moaning. Just disagree if you feel different. I'm completely with the plantiffs. As far as I'm concerned Sony android users are always shortchanged. If you really think it's any consolation that they spend more time than others on mid range and low end devices then you must be living on another planet. Why anyone who spent big bucks on a Sony high end device and is left behind while other phones race ahead should feel consoled that Sony is updating its lower end devices, I will never understand. Just more typical fanboy nonsense.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] cracksquirrel:
Easy solution to all of this:

Devs: If you want to develop then do it, If you don't then don't, If you're threatening to leave then just go, preferably without feeling that you're so important you need to announce it to everyone and we end up in another one of these useless threads, So you like Sony, fair enough, but why get so mad at people bashing them, I love Microsoft but I don't complain when people say they're rubbish, People complain, Get over it.

There was gonna be more but it seems I've covered everything, Seems to be only the devs getting annoyed and throwing toys out of their pram when people don't worship them or Sony.

I'm happy with stock Sony ROM atm, Have tried others but always come back to stock, So thanks for all your work/roms and stuff but you really need to get that chip off your shoulders.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] zed011:
The thing is that if you recall earlier someone from sony said on facebook that 2011 devices will not get JB which was quickly dismissed as false by sony. This gave those users false hope that they will get JB. Now that it was true after all, people say it's an outrage and it's understandable.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] jsel:
I disagree with this. I've had several Android phones from many manufacturers (Samsungs, ZTE, HTC and now Sony XPeria P), and I have to says, that Sony's stock software beats the crap out of the all I've earlier owned.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] kurotsugi:
Well...I've just moved from samsung to sony recently. my opinion is --> this is XDA site. a nice place to talk discuss about enhanching both performance and style on our device. its definetely not sony's customer care site. think carefully, your words won't reach them. if you want to complain about sony's product, the best way is by visit their site or send email to their customer care.

anyway, personally I feel that those complain to sony create bad atmosphere in this forum. we need to maintain good development atmosphere if we want to get more development for our devices. compared to samsung, I feel that sony is a lot better company. samsung never listen to any single word from their customer. they tend to have bad relationship with any 3rd party devs. closed or limited source. even if you get the source code, you'll find it all messed up. don't get fooled by their update for all their lineup. my sgy got update for almost every month. most of them didn't changed at all. most user love the new updates, but if you think it calmly, why should we update our phone if there's no difference between them?

I hope there's no samsung fans here (lol)

EDIT: completely agree with the comment above me. sony's UI might not as good as the ones from other manufacturer but their works are one of the best. well...you won't found your sdcard suddenly removed, poor battery life, your gsm suddenly didn't working. custom bootanimation suddenly didn't working etc etc. that's what you got from samsung's update.

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Galaxen:
They might have the best looking one but thats it.. eye candy ala iOS.

# They dont (not SXS at least) have notification bar toggles.

# Customizable lock-screen,

# They dont have native smart stay (gotta pay get a semi-workin app for that from play store),

# No pop-up play,

# Camera don't have best-shot or ability to take screen-shot during video recording.

# No native voice-control,

# No driving mode (gotta get app),

# You cant for example call someone by just holding the phone to your ear while having their contact info open etc..

I could go on.. but some love the customization ability and feature loaded android, some call it bloatware.. Sony can do so much more but fail to do so.

Sony Album app is great but Walkman isnt that good. Dialer and Keyboard are fine although I use Swiftkey. All in all Sony´s UI is as basic as can be with some sugercoat candy look & feel (I do like it alot though :p) and timescape :confused:

Reason Im here bashing!? Cause I love the UI look and feel and design but lack the features I want = root and throw in apps from market.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] amarjit_rsingh:

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] zodiac100:
Wonder what you expect to happen when someone starts a thread entitled stop bashing Sony just after they've announced their JB update will start rolling out Feb 2013. And for the Xperia S, who knows. Most probably mid q2 next year.

News that'll test anyone but the most committed fanboy.

Now this is one thread that should be closed. It can only go one way. It's a provocation!
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] spinky360:
Me i know why all these are happening .... Because Dev are no motivated.

Look at me: I want my bootloader unlocked ( by-pass, exploit ... etc ). But for that i know that no body will do it for free. THey need motivation so i open a thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1938731 The Title is like this: Donation drive - flashing kernels on locked bootloader.

I sayd that i will pay till 100 Euro / 130 USD for that guy that is making posible this thing.

Ofc ... i will donate to what i found interesting .... Not for custom Rom that is laggy and with all the bullsh*** in it ... Logic ...

So ... Correct me if im wrong
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] K900:
Absolutely not that. I never asked for money. Heck, I don't even have a PayPal account. I did that stuff for fun. Most of this stuff is done for fun, education, research or whatever else you want to call it.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] spinky360:
But lets bee realistic .... You wont fell more ok ... when you see that somebody is saying " thanks " ? well ... that is my way to say thanks ( $ )... I work for money ... we all do. And i dont think you will refuse a payment / donation for your work ..., that will motivate you more to work ... to learn... etc
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] K900:
From your POV, I might be mentally ill or something, but an honest "thanks" means way more to me than a few bucks. Maybe it's just me and my weird attitude.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] spinky360:
Then Let me tell you this ... A Honestly THANKS ... You helped my with lots of answers
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] realfelix:
I second that thanks :)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] krabappel2548:
Agree. But I do have a PayPal account. But never ever ask for money. That's not the way how it works, devs have been banned here because they were asking for money and bad attitude.

Just seeing people hit the thanks button is nice, we just want a bit of recognition for our work, but we do ot because we love to do it. Not because we want money for it.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] K900:
I'm sorry for going horribly offtopic, but this one sentence just made my night.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] MadManMark:
Cannot understand why people take comments towards Sony so personally. I don't understand why people are making themselves mercenaries for Sony, shooting down anyone who's against them
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] amarjit_rsingh:
I feel sorry to see that these thread is becoming a Donation drive. If somebody want to donate let them donate by their free will instead of suggesting other that members should donate. Everybody wants money but it doesn't mean that development will be done if donation are made. :(
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] KidCarter93:
Right guys, this is going exactly the same way as other threads so I'm going to make this as simple as possible.

If you're a developer and you want to leave, do it. Don't make a thread to tell people simply to get some attention, just go.

If you want to stay then that's great.

Not a single one of us is owed anything by the developers or Sony, so if anyone thinks that, you need to have a serious rethink about how things in life work.

The people who are moaning at others for bashing Sony, fix up. Everyone is entitled to an opinion. If you don't like someone's opinion then simply ignore what the person has to say. It's as simple as that.

And on a final note, if anyone doesn't like Sony (for whatever reason) then don't keep going into all different threads to say so.

We have general discussion threads for each device stickied in this forum, so you can use one of those.

We also have an Off-topic hangout thread where you can talk about it in there, if you so wish.

Based on what I've said in this post, I don't wanna be seeing other threads like this in the future because it's not needed in the slightest.

Help. I was trying to install Cyanogen on my Asus TF300T and deleted all files from my internal memory and SD Card. Now I obviously cannot reboot because there is nothing installed on tablet. When I reboot, it hangs at the Asus startup page. My TF300T is unlocked. How can I restore this tablet? Thank you for any suggestions.
[Transformer TF300T General] DaMan90:
Push your room through adb
[Transformer TF300T General] funnel71:
If you still have recovery, put a ROM zip on your SD card and flash it in maybe?

I am relatively new to rooting and custom ROMS. How do I install the ROM via adb? Thanks.
[Transformer TF300T General] schwadb:
I don't think you can install a ROM from the external sd card. I tried that before this post.
[Transformer TF300T General] MrDrift42:
Use adb to put the Rom on the sdcard then boot into recovery and flash it off the sdcard
[Transformer TF300T General] schwadb:
I am having trouble connecting my tf300 to my computer. I cannot get it to recognize the tablet. I have tried it on an XP pc and a Windows 7 pc.
[Transformer TF300T General] schwadb:
OK...I gave up on connecting the tablet to my pc and instead installed the ROM file (cm-9.1.0-tf300t) to my external sd card, and then moved the file to /sdcard on my tablet. When I try to install the ROM via TWRP, it gives me the message - E:\Unable to mount /staging. Any suggestions...?
[Transformer TF300T General] mikaole:
Seems that you are on the last TWRP. This problem is known to some other user and me, too.

I was only able to fix it with wiping everything: You have done that already :)

Then flashing the latest stock.

DL the stock, unzip it one time you know have a zip called: WW_epad-user-10.4.2.13

Go to this thread and dl the adb pusher

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1599332

extracted it and open the Quick ADB Pusher v0.4.1 exe

If you are in TWRP you should seen a number next to select device. Your Pad is in adb mode

click the second browse button from top. Here you can choose the destination folder on your Pad. Choose sdcard

Now drag and drop the WW_epad-user-10.4.2.13.zip on the top empty space under drag and drop

Now push the send button. This should take some time. Once you read file send succesful you have the file on your sd.

Now just flash the stock rom. This should fix all of your problems and you should be up to stock with stock recovery.

So after rebooting and going into stock system Just put all needed files back to internal storage.

Then switch of the pad and switch it back on with Vol- and power and you should be able to go to fastboot again.

Flash the older TWRP via fastboot. Reboot via fastboot while holding Vol- and go back to recovery.

Now you should be able to flash your desired Rom again I hope :):)

[Galaxy S III General] RicarduZonta:
Hey guys,

I live in the uk and went to Bulgaria for 16 days. I left my S3 home and took an older phone with me. Didn't want my samsung stolen, etc.

So, before I left the house I charged the phone up and left it in airplane mode.

I got back more than 2 weeks later to find the phone still on in standby mode with 48% of battery left. Meaning that it could go for about 34 days in airplane mode with one charge.

I know we can't do much with this info but I felt the need to share it.
[Galaxy S III General] jordanishere:
That's awesome. My sgs2 can only make it for about a week in airplane mode, with a 2100mah extended battery.

Are you using the stock ROM? Looks like touchwiz icons from the screenshot you posted.
[Galaxy S III General] tntgdh:
Cool info man. Nice to know that.
[Galaxy S III General] Teio:
This is completely useless... But very interesting ha ha

I wonder how long would it go without airplane mode on

So in order to get great battery life all we need to do is never turn the screen on and never use it as an actual phone, great find! ;)
[Galaxy S III General] kaiowas82:
I bought my s3 from cex (a popular exchange chain here in UK) and when I got the phone it was at 8% charge with 34 days of standby. The phone was left on, without sim card inserted, but with WiFi on, even if wasn't connected to any network. I thought it was pretty cool as the same happened with a one x I bought two weeks before, always from cex, and in the same condition the HTC was on 8 days standby time when it discharged completely in my hand :)
[Galaxy S III General] luexi:
Nice!!!
[Galaxy S III General] Protopia:
Actually there is a point to this...

I think that this is a very interesting post. Why?

Because I suspect that for most people, there are times of the week when they don't actually use the phone or even need it available to take calls but (like me) don't want to have to turn it off at night and turn it on again in the morning.

So, using a tool like Llama, you can set your phone automatically to put itself into Airplane mode at night and to reconnect in the morning - so extending your stand-by time.

(Note: I actually go further than this - and put mobile data on only 3 minutes every 30 when screen is off. And I get great battery time - or would do if I didn't use the screen so much!!)
