Today on Official SE Latvia Facebook page was posted some information about new update
(http://www.facebook.com/sonyericssonlv/posts/256797321016149)
HTML:
"Xperia tālruņiem ar Android 2.3.3 pieejams jauns atjauninājums. Atjauninājumam jāizmanto USB vadu un Update service vai PC Companion aplikācijas. Kontakti un dati atjauninājuma laikā netiek bojāti.
Pilns atjauninājuma ieguvumu apskats sekos pirmdien!"
I have translated it for you:
Where already is avaliable update for Xperia phones with Android 2.3.3. To update your phone you need USB cable and Update service via PC Companion application. Contacts and phones\ data won't be damaged during these update
SE also commented below (this is about ARC, but shows nice results anywhere):
HTML:
"Diemžēl nē-procesors paliek tāds pats,bet Bencmark testā gan no 2100 p pacēlās reitings uz 2888 p!"
"Unfortunately no, the processor will remain the same (not 1400 mhz), but the benchmark shows that the rating from 2100 p increased to 2888 p."
One new comment from SE Latvia about Xperia X10:
HTML:
"Tātad tomēr X10 pagaidām ir pāreja no 2.1. uz 2.3. un pagaidām nav jaunāku atjauninājumu. (Nebiju pārliecināts vai X10 arī būs pieejams šis atjauninājums - to jautāju Twiterī)
Esmu šobrīd pārbaudījis uz Arc, Neo, Mini, MiniPro"
"So far, however, X10 is a changing from 2.1. to 2.3. and yet there is no newer update. (I was not sure if the X10 is available for this update right now - it asked in Twitter)
I've now checked the Arc, Neo, Mini, MiniPro"
Anyway, it is a good news. We will have some improvements in some time!
Also that's mean, that SE is still supporting and updating our phones
Good luck to all!
No offense, but did you read any other threads in this forum? Specially this one?
2.3 has been out for a couple of weeks already...

I think he knows He's talking about a minor update to the phones that are already on 2.3.3 buddy.
@OP Good news nonetheless. As long as they'll update the Arc, we'll get the update as well within a few hours

They have probably taken Z music fix. If we get lucky it would be bravia, xloud and fps fix but sought they would go that far. Maybe they stopped us being able to pre root their roms?

Thanks, that is exactly what I was trying to tell. You have catched main idea, now it is just a question of time
@scoobysnacks
SE person said what for other phones (Arc, Neo, Mini, MiniPro) update was already rolled out. So you can try to look in those models forums
@The Gingerbread Man
Just found some interesting news and thought, that someone could find it usefull

Hey guys,
in a german board someone said he is in contact with the SE support and today he was told that there is a new firmware out. It's called R2BAxxx and should fix the battery issues.
In an other board someone posted this
Hi guys!
The next firmware is due soon and it's called R2BA013.... it's contains some new features such as small ui improvements in timescape and mediascape and the creatuch app. This firmware is blazing fast and very much improved from .016. The battery time is also improved and it seems that the screen resolution looks better too. Also the face-recognition is very much improved. There is also a nice "slide" animation when browsing through pictures. All in all, this is probably what SE had in mind when releasing X10, and all I can say is that it's really good and I'm very pleased.
So if there's someone out there who's not sure to buy this phone because of the minor problems that's know in 0.14 firmware, I can almost guarantee you that this will fix them all and make you very pleased with the performance of the X10

I have to add, the german support said the update is allready out and in his office anyone was allready running the new version. He also said that it could take 1 or 2 more days until everyone can update but perhaps someone allready has?

Yes i know that 2.1 will come in september but there must be an update before that to kill the issues like battery lifetime. This one will do that an bring us some ui improvements and timescape / mediascape fixes.
Guy's i can't seem to be able to update from even 1.04 to 1.06.
have you unbranded your handset? Seems to hit the unbranded ones first... others will be controlled by their network.
Hi all.. don't know if anyones heard anything official from SE on this or not?
I've just emailed there support email [email protected]
To ask for an official comment on timescale and functionality...
Cheers. Alan.
i have debranded my x10 rogers to generic NA x10a firmware. i seriously doubt that SE will release a firmware for this firmware seeing how the phone isn't officially released here in the states except for the x10i models.
i think for those of us with X10a, i think we will be waiting for the firmware update in late may or even in september. that's my take anyways.

Mostly Bug fixes, maybe improved battery life, and small build increase in the some of the built in apps like Gmail and browser etc.
Then you got all the new Sony stuff on top, so should be good.
and the all important fix to the user data encryption problem recently made public... which is prevalent in all Android versions upto 2.3.4!

Except that can and is being fixed server-side by Google, so not having 2.3.4 isn't as big an issue as it might be.
Plus, the problem only occurs when using unsecured wi-fi networks - the clue is in the name

Yeah, they pushed out a minor bug-fix.
This is a combination bug-fix and update to the next version of Android, of course that's going to take more time.
When other manufacturers like HTC are only just updating their current handset range to 2.3.2 and SE are updating the Arc and Play from 2.3.2, I don't really see why you're being so negative.
Pretty new to the android stuff so,
Will this be an OTA Update?
My Phione is unlocked and rootet, any issues for updating?
Last question will it wipe your phone?
thx for replies...
@Karooluss This will be the 2nd update for the arc....
It launched on build .181 and is now .184.
So uhm...... 2 updates (including an android version update), and the phone's only been about 2 months. Not bad going?
Ronniecross, I have still 181 fw fersion although I check for new almost every day. 184 is probably update only for UK and it add some unnecessary stuff like bbc player?? Correct me if I m not right;-)

That is probably 99.9% right, habe never know Engadget to be wrong about release dates of stuff.
By saying next week they probably mean the last day of the next week, so 10 more days to go
ugh, dont know if i like that.... i dont want to have it too integrated with facebook as i do value my privacy. hopefully there's an option to turn it off

To work with Facebook you need to sign in. HTC sense is also really integrated with Facebook (twitter flicker) but you have to sign in. If you don't sign in the function doesn't work.

Yay for 2.3.4. Nay for Facebook integration. I like it the way it is right now. Please make Facebook integration optional Sony Ericsson.
Let's just hope Rogers pushes it out next week as well.
IT IS optional you can turn it completely off from the menu! )
Well I won't update it immediately when I comes out. I'll wait and see if Gingerbreak works on the new firmware. And can unlock the HBOOT.
I hope this update brings the much anticipated fixes for the ARC, it's SO close to being perfect, come on SE!
there is an update on that article, the version of the new android update for the Arc will be 2.3.3
Anyone knows what other improvements will be brought by this updates in addition to Facebook intergration? I left a message on SE product launch blog to Rikard, but didnt get any response yet.
So, I'm wondering if the update is for both LT15i and LT15a.

what Nimche said, but to answer your question, I'm sure if it WERE the case that SE were jumping straight to 2.3.4, hypothetically, yes. This would be possible. I couldn't forsee any issues with it...
Dont care about facebook integration, just hope it fixes that camera battery drain bug.
Correction..
Its not 2.3.4 its 2.3.3 ....
Look again at Engadget.....it has been corrected by them........
Wasn't there a member that had their Xperia Arc already on 2.3.3? Wonder if he has all of these features already...

Hi Sony Ericsson
I recently bought an Xperia X8 and it's a nice phone
got me a lot worse in the phone memory is too small for the applications
Android 2.2 or 2.3 can use your app 2 sd so my question is is there a new update or is there a way around this problem?
thanks in advance

Great!!! Till then, try one of the Mods, see what an update should do, ) Try XGin from Shpit and see what I mean. Grat job withe the developers. Thank all, now we can see that with limited hardware, this can be done. And we know what we SHOULD expect from SE.
This is,great but still no official new from se uk or asia. Who cares as long as they want to release the updates.yay, cant wait!

wow, i hope that it is dualtouch they have made it possible for x10, so why can't they try it for x8 and minis ??? i don' care about official froyo/gb update, because x8 devs and their roms are better than SE devs and their crappy roms xda rocks !!!!
edit: there is new firmware on ptcrb :http://www.ptcrb.com/ctiastaff/complete/view_complete_request.cfm?modelid=17877
Maybe this is only a system update. I doubt SE will update the Android version on the X8.

the firmware that was released (the .75) actually just was posted today
How do they help us (just interested/dont burn me!)
I mean, is this the "kernel" source needed for custom kernels. Will it help to fix the music lag etc/..
4.0.A.2.368.tar.bz2
4.0.A.2.364.tar.bz2
4.0.A.2.335.tar.bz2
*that 3 maybe for ARC, NEO, PLAY
not sure about neo, but I have PLAY with 4.0 build (flash to older generic UK, ..don't ask why, but they even maybe the promised 2.3.4
but other 3.0.1 maybe for X10, the answer to that question if you ask is,
that the RAY and new MINI got new launcher, like on the ARC new Gneric FW that posted some days a go. and also, nobody say we will not have updates for the system. after 2.1 (435), there was at least 2 more updates for Germany and Thailand, so there is some chance we will get some update soon, maybe for X10A soon to, and maybe some fixes, but if you look on the name, past 2.1 for X10,E10,U20,E15,E16 have model names, the new one don't, so it's hard to know, maybe the mini's & x8 get 2.3? we will se some news soon, i'm sure.
PS, still stuck on X10's 2.1 (435) hope there will be Global\World Generic for the 2.3.3 (75)
As history has shown us...the X10 usually receives its Open Source files 10-15 days after the update hits the market. However that said, most of the time the PTCRB was registered before the update had been released...since our firmware was just registered I'm not sure if they will release it next weekish or in 10-15 MORE days...or might do something random as to release it NOW...or in a long time...but they eventually will.
