Basically the North America Sony Ericsson website has free online help and support, its the same as using chat.
http://www.sonyericsson.com/services/us/en/chat/disclaimer/
It doesn't matter if you are from another country as I'm from the Uk and use this, it's useful for asking questions about the handset. I'm not sure how good the technical side of things are.
Please wait while we find an agent to assist you...
You have been connected to Agent Patricia.

Aww, gosh NOT AGAIN.
Rikard Skogberg @ SonyEricsson, who is also the writer of the blog @ http://blogs.sonyericsson.com/products/ said that SonyEricsson are really hearing what we, the users, have to say about the products. He say that the users opinion has a big impact inside the company, or at least that was what he said only 2 days ago.
So my thought was to make a petittion in order to try and open SonyEricssons eyes up, and try to get them to understand that we really want them to release the bootloaders for our Xperia phones.
The reason for making the pettition here is that YOU have to be logged in to sign it, not like the SonyEricsson blog that anybody can sign 1000 times if they want...
And we can easy link to this forum when we have a lot of signatures, to show SonyEricsson the result...
So now, keep this pettition clean, no hard words or nothing bad about SonyEricsson nor the whole delay and 2.1/2.2 issue, this thread is not what this is all about.
If you want to mark me or flame me for trying this, then PM me, or start a new tread instead !
I don´t think this have been tried before, but if it has then pleace show me a link to a bunch of signatures, so we can show it to Rikard Skogberg and SonyEricsson.
Rikard Skogberg have said earlyer that not even 18.000+ signatures could make them give us Android 2.2 instead of 2.1, and that can be a marketing issue.
He have not said anything about them not giving up the bootloaders if we ask nice ?
And reading what he said two days ago, things look like they have changed a little in the company since May.
Also i don´t think that any one has actually tried this before, so give us your signature in this petittion and lets try this for real if we can convince SonyEricsson to give us the bootloaders...just try...
Just write down your name and what SonyEricsson phone you have, and let´s hope for the bedst.
Hey, it can´t hurt to ask SonyEricsson nice for the bootloaders, can it
To keep this a nice and clean petittion, pleace use this form:
I would really like if SonyEricsson would set our Xperia phones free, and give us the bootloader

good idea, but I still don't get why you used this forum for a petition. There are plenty of petition sites out there

[tom hansen], current owner of:

Rikard has already stated on the Product Blog that they are not going to do that
Also, when 18k signatures on the Froyo petition went unheard, what makes you think they will look here?
Wouldn't it be better to start it on their blog site?

But hey, have you got any place with 18k signatures for this anyway ?
If not then it is just empty talk, so now lets try this for real for a change...
No more empty talk, and no more "what if" questions, lets just try...

Umm pretty sure he's referring to these 18700 signatures, which I assume most of us already signed back in May.

Maybe that's where you should set-up your petition. It's a cute thought that they'll release the bootloader (lol yeah right), but it's been asked before and totally rejected. In reality they don't listen to their customers until their sales start to really decline. That's how we'll get their attention with our wallets, unfortunately not through online petitions.
I can't imagine that they'll ever release the bootloader, unless they have a change of CEO and the new guy has a significantly more relaxed attitude about this whole concept.. maybe someone off the board of google could step in and take the job!!
If they do give access to the bootloader, it will be for future models, don't expect it for this phone or previous models.
They have agreements with cell phone service providers that wouldst allow them to do it.

we don't lose anything by trying
Alan Castillo, current owner of:

besides most of the owners of this phone, don't know anything about OS, that happens here in Mexico
Doesn't hurt to try.. but it would be a better idea for ppl to sign the petition on the product blog cause it'll get noticed there for sure ..

Even if they "agree" to do so, it would probably take at least a month for them to do so. Let me tell you all a secret. You know why the Xperia X10 has X10 in it? Because everything SE does with this phone takes X10 (10 times) longer than usual.
Also if they agree, don't forget their slogan. Make.Believe.

+1 from my side..
i really dont think its gonna make any difference. if they are not planing about froyo forget unlocked bootloader... waste of time...really think, threads like these are totally unnecessary.
I can't believe this software is even allowed, it happens to be on htc and samsung phones. I know this topic has been mention numerous times but i just saw this video and felt like sharing it..

CIQ is super-ancient news, dude. Where have you been?
On the presentation - I read through the blog post and watched the video early this morning. It's well done. Kudos to Trev for continuing to work on this.

They did say 4-6 weeks after initial Nordic rollout, I just didn't think they'd go for the maximum 6 weeks without any release in between, this is just like someone at talk.sonymobile.com pointed out, that it'll be 1 month for everyone else.
theres already a thread stickied for ICS topics

I think you might have gotten wrong info or something because every news site I visit (including Asus' forum itself) claim that M will be released in Q2. and not in March.

If there are tech media outlets reporting this news then please send them, I might not be getting them to show up because I don't live in India.
EDIT: Okay nevermind I'm starting to find some other sites reporting this! Sorry if I came of as an asshole.
No Problem.
With many US sites reported the launch in Q2 last week, it was a surprise to get this new information last day from Asus PR team. And don't worry, I got trashed on Reddit to, but I post news only if they are confirmed.
And as per release I have received they are coming in March, the exact date unknown. I have added the exact press release copy on my blog as a source of this news.
So... about that March Marshmallow release - or are you still claiming it was a real article?
March huh??? WTF is this?
