Can't say for Tipo, but J is running Home in hardware mode. Almost all critical apps are odex-ed in system. SystemUI also.

Better kernel too.

And that's the story.

PS: 2012 apps just make your Arc even more slower than it is.

Get rid of them, all but walkman.
[Xperia Arc General] jlmcr87:
NO,If I use the xperia 2011 old gallery to open a photo takes 4-5 seconds. With xperia 2012 gallery it´s instantaneous. Last year with gingerbread I achieve 1500. But still less than the tipo with worse hardware!
[Xperia Arc General] jarein95:
I dont know when is Sony going to release the update, but i think that they are going to implement a lot of new things, and yes I am speaking about 2012 apps and the new kernel!!!
[Xperia Arc General] Yovecio:
I think that they wont integrate new kernel or 2012 apps...

Now we can only wait for the release, the patience is the only solution

Where do you get the 2012 Xperia gallery from? Could you please tell me.

Stupid question. Anyway you can root it inmediatly if you have unlocked bootloader

:) well u see, i am sometimes curious how real stock performs (no root), like this latest one, hopefully it comes out soon.

depends on the region

it wil be released in phases.u wil get updates depending on da region u r staying.but heard already that firmware update was rolled out n saw reviews on net with positive feedback from those who installed updates

al u guys cant blame me.am not giving fake news.i jus wrote what i saw on net last night.

one user by name SHPITZZA written in da above link that he updated his SOLA XPERIA n after update his mobile now performing very fast n smooth.da same i told here as one of our frens asked when wil it be out.i told it was out n wil be released in phases.

but i used da word reviews casually .i would used da word REVIEW only..pls see da above link properly .u wil know
[Xperia Arc General] mr_torture:
Man, don't bury yourself more and more.

You clearly stated that you saw REVIEWS with positive feedback from THOSE who installed it. And now you're claiming it's only single review, and even that one single review is not review.

Do you know what review is, and what feedback is?

The guy you are quoting from XperiaBlog article (and I saw that post too), is also talking nonesense, and he is being replied about that nonesense. Xperia Sola is NOT a 2011 phone, and this update is not having anything to do with that phone.
[Xperia Arc General] _Homer:
i hope they fixed led notifications and phone app starting laaaaaaaaaaaag, these are two things really annoying on this phone :rolleyes:

do anyone know when it will be release ?
[Xperia Arc General] jlmcr87:
Still nothing..........
[Xperia Arc General] dagustl:
+1

Nothing on the web about leaked firmware and still no SI-numbers to find, so forget that crap "Review".

We have to be patient and cross our fingers for a bunch of bugfixing and speedups for 4.0.4.

I prefer a fine working ICS more than a JB-Release which is on beta-status for this (as i expect) final update for our ´11 Xperias.

Hey, Sony: I have SI1254-1123, hurry up!... :laugh:

I would like to think that sony has done away with the vendor partition on arc ics....... Thats why I use gb still or the arc s ics rom
[Xperia Arc General] b00l:
Come again, please?
[Xperia Arc General] jcgechevarria:
I know what's happen

They are waiting to pass world's end.
[Xperia Arc General] mr_torture:
Vendor partition is arc specific, and not arc S. If I'm right, it makes removing system apps complicated.

One of the solutions is flashing arc S rom into arc.
[Xperia Arc General] b00l:
Anybody tried with Emma? http://developer.sonymobile.com/downloads/tool/flash-tool-for-xperia-devices/

It only works on S, Arc/S. Could somebody try it? I might be available through it.

Thanks
[Xperia Arc General] hminhhoai92:
Good news hehe
[Xperia Arc General] DdcCabuslay:
I hope they do. Honestly, it's a pain when dealing with mods with the vendor partition.
[Xperia Arc General] kes4817:
i tried this, not work
[Xperia Arc General] b00l:
The program works if you follow the instructions, but the phone needs to have it's bootloader unlocked. Anyway, it's a big chance that the new firmware is available through Emma, because it comes directly from Sony.
[Xperia Arc General] mr_torture:
It's a big chance that it isn't available yet.

And PC Companion and Update Service are not coming directly from Sony?
[Xperia Arc General] b00l:
Well, it's worth a try.

The firmwares that come through PCC and SUS are firstly "modded" by carriers, aren't they? Basebands, carrier bloatware, etc.
[Xperia Arc General] snopkowsky:
No, they're not.
[Xperia Arc General] popthosegaskets:
Depends, for my Arc S there is only international firmware and Japanese firmware for their variant of Arc.

n da twist is its not even specified on PTCRB.

in da above article they stated too that its A SUDDEN UPGRADE for CHRISTMAS

so i had hopes next week we gonna get update for LWW new firmware.

MERRY CHRISTMAS
[Xperia Arc General] datagubben:
No we did not, its missinformation! Its probably a brown model (engineer) with pre Jelly Bean, but we got new launcher for Christmas :D:good:
[Xperia Arc General] malih16:
I think so too, let the PTCRB and Sony Mobile staff enjoy their holiday.

Hopefully when they come back to work, they'll have an idea on how to do Jelly Bean on the MSM8255/T with 512MB RAM.

(It is said in GSMArena that the MSM7227 in the Xperia J requires less RAM for the GPU, compared to Adreno 205 in the MSM8255/T and Mali-400 in the NovaThor U8500, which is the reason as to why it will be updated to Jelly Bean - and maybe the reason why it uses that particular chipset. In the case of Xperia Go, it has much lower display resolution so the GPU uses less RAM compared to Xperia U/SOLA and it will be updated to Jelly Bean. That is if GSMArena isn't wrong.)

Either that or at this point just a better, bug-free ICS is alright with me.

If he is right, it could mean they don't want to update the Xperia Home launcher in the Mini Pro, because that' the only difference I see with another 2011's iteration.
[Xperia Arc General] pablopablo:

So , in that screen shot , I could see that the application used for chatting shows the date as JAN-2013 , and also in the same chat he says that the update will start at the end of this month .

Sony Delusion

I have also contacted Sony because the lack of updates, and problems with my xperia, I received an email, and it din't mention any new update. Just the same old crap telling me to reinstall software and so on. I honestly think when they receive an email talking about specific bugs, kernel and cyanogen, they should lie less. As we are not dumb.

The lack of Jelly Bean it's not a technical problem, is Sony solution for trying to sell more phones, but I as thousands of users are now almost Anti-Sony, for the lack of respect, long waits for updates and the absence of the so called 18 months support, I don't prospect good future for Sony.

I have now Cyanogen 10 on my Live With Walkman, and there's only a few things I miss, the Sony Music Player that I actually got the Xperia S version to replace the Cyanogen one, the T9 keyboard that I replaced by the xperia s one, the group selection SMS as it seems the original Android doesn't have it, all this can be replaced by apps, actually what is harder is the camera, is Sony Hardware and since Sony only shares what they want, and not really open source is harder to get it done. But video and photos are working, only panorama and panorama 3d are not there. ALL the rest works!!! Including flawless! LED notifications. So how can Cyanogen done it so fast and SONY not even solving the released firmware bugs after half a year later!!!!!! I wonder if Sony and other companies are so greedy this days they don't have programmers working and wait for the open source community to do the work for them!

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sebbe312:
Hey, I'm trying to help my buddy with his Galaxy S2. He had rooted it with CM7 (very old, I know, but it was a while ago). A couple of weeks ago it started to act weird, and now his root is gone.

This was the problem, he couldn't boot, when he booted it all went into boot loop. And he couldn't go to CWM, because root was gone and so was CWM.

I downloaded Odin v1.85 and flashed a stock firmware. but now it's in boot loop again...

So what should I do next? Stuck on boot loop, no triangle on boot which means it isn't rooted anymore.

Please, help me! I'm clueless!

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prazvt:
Hey guys - I just got the 8pi S Pen for my Galaxy Note 2 and am having an issue with it.

First of all, it seems like you need to put a little more pressure on it compared to the s pen that comes with the Note 2 - but that's not too bad. The issue I'm having is that if am writing in landscape mode, there is an area on the right side of the screen (say ~ 1/2 inch) where the pen fails to write. ie. if I draw a line from the left to the right ..there'll be a blank hole near the right edge. This doesn't happen w/ the stock pen. I switched out nibs and it's still happening - it'll work sometimes, but mostly if you're writing a sentence, it'll fail in that area.

Could it be a bad S Pen? See the screenshot...

Thanks.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] geishroy:
just realized i had a similar problem as well... i've found when holding my phone in a landscape orientation the angle that I write or draw in makes the inaccurate touches occur. If I hold the pen at the same angle I would if it were in portrait I have no problems at all... I'm not really sure but I'm going to go to ATT tomorrow to see if their demo unit does the same.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] mamntfca:
So I searched all day for an answer similar to mine and I did not see what I could do.

I was on rooted on ICS until this weekend when I updated to Jelly Bean and rooted again.

My Battery usage was working fine in ICS, what I would call normal battery drain.

After the update I am getting terrible battery use!!!!

I have tried closing, diabling all apps, radios, I have diabled bloatware.

But my battery keeps draining at a rate of 10% and hour!

All this with minor use.

I have opened a few apps and the Play Store but nothing else.

The S3 has just be inJust in standby.

In the settings, under battery it show my main power consumption is the SCREEN at 60%

I dont know how!

When the screen is off, I dont have a video wallaper and when I do power up the screen its so DIM I can hardley see anything.

All this happened after the Jelly Bean update!

Any idea on what I can do?

Do you think a factor restore would help?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Archienj7:
Yes, back your dat up first though (contacts, calender, ect.) because you will have to redownload your apps. I did a reset and was on stock after updating but still had terrible battery life. The fix? Take the battery out 40 minutes, put it back in and run it COMPLETELY dead, and recharge it while it's turned off. Make sure you have time to do this without needing the phone because it takes a while. Like 7-8 hours. I've went a day now without much usage at all (still at 90% charge) and have a day left on standby. The battery reset helped more than anything I believe.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Mangtas_666:
Yep same as mine jb update has a heavy battery drain..and my skyvalex callrecorder stopped working..i just flash back to ICS.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Sianspheric:
My opinion, factory wipe and Re-root it.

Install SetCPU and the Ktoonsez kernal to manage the power settings. Also Go Power Master is a good app to tweak power settings.

In SetCPU you can have it clocked down when the screen it off.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] kleigh774:
Had the same problem. Called att went through the ranks until I was told by att warranty supervisor that they had no work around and I should root my phone. Shocking they told me that. But I found the problem. I uninstalled the update to Google now and then shut it down. Battery seams to be doing good now.

Got a free battery from att though. I guess cause there higher ups have no idea how to fix drain.
