[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] IvanSantosPT:
I didn't. But even I've made a backup, I can't connect the tablet to the computer with RKBatchTool and I can't install the Rockchip 3066 driver, only the ADB Android driver (which i can connect via adb).
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
Use ADB

Google a pre-made adb backup specifically for your tablet and restore it via adb. Or you can just use fastboot to flash a new ROM.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] IvanSantosPT:
Did you read what I said?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
I think adb shell doesnt work because your tablet has not yet booted and will not be booted as long as it is in the current state.

Your only hope is RK Batch tool. Uninstall all current versions and the drivers you have in your computer and try reinstalling this and the drivers.

Your only hope!
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] IvanSantosPT:
Thank you, I reinstalled the driver and it worked. I installed the CWM 6.0.2.7 and all was working fine. Then I installed the CyanogenMod for RK3066 (cm3066.com) and the device doesn't boot, doesn't even shows the battery charger indicator and I can't mount or format anything in the CWM. I've lose the SD card, but I will borrow someone and try to reinstall the CWM, because I can't go to the RKBatchTool option.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
Y u so Ungrateful?

<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<Hit thanks button if I helped , dude.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] IvanSantosPT:
No problema. But now I can't even reflash the CWM or the ROM, the tablet is soft bricked.

UPDATE: To access to the Downloading Mode, I had to click Vol+ plus Vol- when I connect the device to USB port. I am trying to flash with official firmware.

UPDATE 2: I've noticed that the ROM that I installed damaged the kernel, and now I need someone's boot partition dump.

UPDATE 3: I downloaded the oficial ROM from soft.aoicoo.com/soft/show.asp?id=285 and flashed the device. Then the device started! I installed the CWM 6.0.2.7 and then installed DarkwaterV2 CM ROM (not required). The tablet is working better than never with 10279 points scored in AnTuTu Benchmark v3.3! Thank you all!

It is getting a little childish here, I admit,

first I thought why would Sony screw up an important date and then it's gotta be May 24 and JB and still say: Hey Babies, stop crying!!

But then I thought: wait a minute: if this is right, it IS April 24 then why does nobody have this version ??? (because I don't...)

Let's be adults and wait until tomorrow...

but you can relock your bootloader and update to the final one if it will be different to the one you'll install ;)

I've been reading more tweets from the Sony FR people, and if I'm getting this correctly (my French isn't that good) SIM-Free phones are getting it first and they should start getting it next week. Also, they're hedging their bets by limiting this to the French. A guy asked about Belgium and he was directed to asking the Belgian division.

Le sigh.

But normally the background information is nothing more than speculation .. look what happened to "Xperia JB update rolling out" ! :cyclops:
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] zuifon:
I think the information of the French Twitter is false. I read French forums, noone has the update.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] donjamal:

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] PLovrin:
There are more answers on that tweet. They said that only a few builds got update and more and global rollout will be next week. Shall see
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] RHBH:

Yes? Link to me please.

No? So it's not the official update.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] FenrirMX:
It's not the official version, of course. It's the one that got certified 6.2.B.0.200, not meant for consumer devices.

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] funky0308:
Unlocked bootloader only
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] ak47sssr:
Hey guys, is it true that if you unlock your bootloader that bravia engine doesn't work anymore ?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] s-X-s:
true... also u will loose DRM keys apps like trackid also wont...
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] De@n:
That is true.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] theprince1991:
True but there's a guide on XDA that says if you backup your TA partition then you can retain your DRM keys... Haven't done it myself though. You can get it working again though (there is a guide out there, only ICS).
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] khaled222:
i think that also :good:
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Redstarr1:
TrackID works with unlocked bootloader, downloading music info in the Walkman also isn't dependent on DRM keys since the JB update for Xperia T (and you can just use that app even on Xperia S with ICS). So only the Bravia engine won't work after unlocking bootloader (if you don't backup TA partition, but that's beyond a regular user I think ..)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] RHBH:
The TA backup script from [MENTION=5261329]DevShaft[/MENTION] is easy to use, I have my DRM keys safe if I decide unlock my BL, I'm seriously thinking about it, I'm tired of this endless wait and. 200 build leaked.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Gallardo994:
Bravia Engine works on unlocked bootloader on 2.3 and 4.1
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] revan17:
It doesn't on 4.1, only on 4.0. Not for pictures that is, only for videos.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] juliantje15:
Still no sign of the JB update ...

I ran out of patient and installed the leaked version. For now i can say that everything is running pretty smooth, and even the Music info download option is working!
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Gallardo994:
Not so smooth. Delays happen, statusbar has some fps-loss sometimes. Not the best ROM at all.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] juliantje15:
I only have the rom installed for 2 hours, so yeah i think its going to slow down when i install some apps, but still a lot better than ICS
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Gallardo994:
Not as smooth as it should be. Sony managed to crap 4.1 out
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Dumilex:
Really, and all that waiting time for this... Pfff

Sent from a cave in Africa
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Daniel_GB:
what are you talking about?

I am using .200 firmware and I have installed my usual Apps. Its working great, very smooth!

The Only problem is 1080p video recording........
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Dumilex:
[im on. 200 also]

It is suppose to work great, that's not the main question. I'm just not impressed with the work done. They could, or should (since is the last update), done a better job. It still lags on some parts like switching apps. Galaxy S2 is like a year older them XS and it's fast like craaaazy with 4.1.2 stock!

Sent from a cave in Africa
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] lee480:
Hnmnm. That's unusual. People report it being extremely smooth. Try a factory reset first.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Redstarr1:
Galaxy S2 has a better processor and a lower resolution to render. Xperia S is a bit underpowered for the 720p screen. Qualcomm only started using decent gpu's since the S4 Pro (Adreno 320). Adreno 220 like we have is way slower than the Mali in Galaxy S2. So it makes sense that that renders faster. But compared to ICS, the JB update is a giant leap forward.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Daniel_GB:
I'm comparing JB update with ICS (ICS was total crap)!!

Ram management is way better now, and the launcher is so smooth!

GSII has a 480 x 800 (X10 era ) display, while XS has a 720p display. lot more to process!:good:
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Felimenta97:
You are right in everything, except that the Exynos in SII is better than ours. It is not better. The same, if not worse. But what gives us an advantage is that Sony can get a lot of the processing power of their devices.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] theprince1991:
Using your guide I got BE1 working for both video and photos. When I flashed BE2 it would only work for photos and not videos.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Dumilex:
Which takes us back to why the hell did Sony use an older hardware for its new and first flagship (after Ericsson). Idiotic move that is.

In any device, ICS to JB will be a big jump in overall performance.

Well, I wasn't mate. U the one who quoted me lol, so u should refer to what I was talking about and not to what u wanted to talk about.

Like I said above, Sony should had putted a better hardware to manage the awesome 720p display.

Overall it's a good update though and I am happy with it, but not satisfied. For the time it took to be released... 4.1.2... It's a joke from Sony to Us.

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] masterinc:
For me, .200 much better compared to previous leaked...

Smooth and lag free. Maybe because I does not install / remove FB apps.

I hate FB apps, one of the app that make my phone slower.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] cornel.atomei:
My first thoughts about this new leak:

- much faster and more fluid animation than original stock rom *.55

- stops responding VOLUME UP after pressing too fast and often. This bug should really be fixed

- very slow shut down and restart

- the battery drain issue not resolved, it's even a bit worse (but maybe because i test the new rom so much)

- some old widgets like "firend's music" are missing

- timescape sync is much faster

- ability to make folders in app drawer, pretty sweet

- themes now don't change the colour of menus, just the icon colour (i miss my green settings menu)

- fixed many bugs and lags, fixed image review for quick camera launch bug, app drawer refresh bug, etc...

- 1080p recording laggy, 720p recording very good

- new interface for album, movies

- ClearAudio+ setting added in Sony Walkman

- cool new lockscreen, but i miss the notification on lockscreen and the ability of putting widgets on lockscreen like my old galaxy nexus

- the touch buttons sensitivity is still the biggest fail of this device

- camera software and scene detection seems faster

- auto brightness still missing, battery saving profiles from *.55 are missing, stamina mode missing

- poor google now integration (acces only with google icon or widget) not accesible like in galaxy nexus with swipe gesture

- good small apps with ability to install new ones from play store

All in all, a mixed bag of goods and bads, its's better than *.55 in many aspects, but worse in a few, the all arround experience is better, but still, doesn't seem like a new phone like many described this build. But for now, Xperia S users that wanna stay loyal to this brand don't have that many upgrade solutions, Xperia T isn't that much of an upgrade, Xperia Z, ZL and ZR have a horrific screen, besides resolution, they have 2010 technology. So afterall, Xperia S is a good performer, a bit too old hardware but capable of running Jelly Bean smooth, maybe a little more work on future software upgrades (if any). Peace!
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] r0bot:
You didn't notice a Stamina Mode on this leak?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] PLovrin:
There is only battery saving mode, no stamina on .200
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Anders1:
I have to say that even the .197 leak offers quite good performance as well as battery life, but I'm sure looking forward to the final (official) build...

The .197 leak has way better battery performance than any custom 4.2.2 I've tried so far (I think I've tried them all now).
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] masterv1:
I don't know what for battery problems you have. I am getting 3 hours of display on time and that's 50% more than with ics with same apps and without these battery saving apps.

I hope this JB update is as good as the one in V...

Bought my misis a XZ on JB already. So far, im really impressed how fluid it is. I spent close to an hour just scrolling/swiping around.

Also, battery life is amazing... 2% drain overnight!..and very little wake activity when sleeping.

I think the culprit with the XS' poor battery life is due to the quick camera feature it has. I hope they have an option to remove it.

Just a friendly warning to some of the members here, who seem to think that swearing on XDA is ok... It's not.

Going forward, I will be taking a much tougher stance on bad language in the forums here... There is no excuse for it.

Whether the filter edits your bad language or not, the intent is there and it has to stop.

This also includes people inserting different characters etc. to get around the filters... again, the intent is what I will be focused on.

Anyone who continues to flout this rule, will find themselves with an official warning followed by even further penalties.

I honestly dont know what To believe anymore... July June or may... How can the different Sony HQ's all say something different? In France they say its out and AR said it will release in July?? I personally really like Sony and I hope the delayed update was worth it. Apart from the bad support the XS is actually pretty neat. What i dont understand is, why mostly the XS is neglected... From what I heard the XZ has preety good support... I would love to finally have the update :) I for myself still think that may is the due date :)
