"We have been having a lot of questions regarding the update for our 2011 Xperia™ phones to the new Android 2.3.4 version. And we are happy to tell you that today we announced that the 2.3.4 version of Gingerbread platform for all the 2011 Xperia™ Smartphones will start the roll out during October at select markets."
Let's hope for the best!
Cheers,

it is update for 2011 phones such as arc, neo, play, pro,...

X8, X10/mini/pro are listed in the 2010 Xperia phones

...segtawee.....

But our sibling W8 was 2011 phone...
Sent from my E15i using XDA App

i am using a W8.... but after i installed Gingerdx... it shows that my model number is X8...
does that means i will not be getting the update ?
well... i prefer Dx's custom ROM better... more updates than the SE

i dont believe that the w8 will get the update..it is practically not a smartphone..and guys be realistic if the x8(or w8) havent gotten froyo how it is possible that we will get 2.3.4?just be happy for the devs here in xda

@innovator84:
Open the build.prop in a text editor,change every "X8" to W8" and then reboot and have a look at settings-about phone again.

please close this thread. Dont feed the trolls

i dont see trolling or any trolls in this thread because it located at the general section, no one is being assaulted.

W8 won't get an update, because it isn't a 'Xperia' series phone. It is a 'Walkman' with android system.
Edit: Who cares we don't have 2.3.4? CM 7.1.0-pre is on 2.3.5!

Thanks for the tips... but it doesn't matter anyway...
the W8 is practically a X8 with a walkman logo on it..

Yes you're right, W8 is a X8 with a walkman logo. But W8 isn't a 'Xperia' series phone, so it won't get a update too.

x8 wont be updated to 2.3 because its not a 2011 xperia phone its a 2010 xperia smartphone. and as @samyeung97hk already said the w8 isnt an xperia phone at all its a walkman. its sad but true we wont be getting official 2.3

Well I guess its only the packaging of w8. Its like LG Optimus and its glossy version.

So, w8 OUT @ XPERIA 2011, WHY THAT PHONE DOESN'T GET ANY UPGRADE?? AND I DON'T HEAR ANY NEWS THAT W8 NOT UPGRADEABLE.

It probably won't get an update as the x8 won't get an update. If the W8 gets an update us x8 users should get an update too because W8 firmware is virtually identical to x8 firmware. But SE has mentioned that x8 will not get update so W8 users probably will not get an update.

As I said earlier in this thread, W8 isn't a 'Xperia' series phone. Although it's spec/firmware are the same, it won't get an update either.
Edit: Every Android phones are upgradable if the spec allows/have devs to develop firmware.

Bad News for Xperians!!!! :(

While I was browsing, I found this!!!
http://www.slashgear.com/sony-ericsson-confirm-no-froyo-for-xperia-x10-06123921/
they said there will be no froyo or gingerbread update for the Xperia Line up!!! Ohno!!!
We all know that. It`s confirmed after the announce of the Xperia Arc
wow
that is like news old like 6 months... even sony-ericsson guy on their blog wrote that... becouse they are pushing some new PSP phone... or something like that...
so sadddddd
not dev related, moved to general
Best, DK
SE don't want to update their current android phones because of marketing.
people will have to buy xperia arc to get android 2.3. good for their bussiness. this is how it's work.

That's how it works for them, not necessarily for the rest of the industry.
There are phones with worse hardware than the Xperia series which have been given Android 2.2 updates.
IOTW, they **** on their current customers and profit on them. Nothing else.
Its not everything bad.
We can get all that have 2.2 by root phone and we will get multytouch actually we already get it.
They uploaded firmware with multytouch.

please support us,for new fw updates for the X8 and X10 family

I am for.
What I find most annoying is that SE seems to have forgotten they made the x8 entirely.
I'm not even sure if the x8 is considered "part of the x10 family" or not. I can make semi-informed guesses, but there's no official word to clarify this.
thats bad....
Sony mentioned the x10, mini and mini pro and forgot to mention the X8..??
either they r gonna bring froyo to X8 (which i m think is never gonna happen) or they dont think X8 is important enough to mention..!!
I had tweeted SEAnswers about the Xperia X8 and this is what they had to say, I quote "There may be updates to software, however we will not be upgrading past 2.1 OS".Check the Discussions on their Facebook page, no further updates to the Android version.
So... since the x8 was originally intended to launch with 2.1, this pretty much makes the life-span of this particular device... Dead on Arrival.
It's a fine device, but the policy that comes with it is just utter rubbish.

New update coming for X8

hello,just check this out.new update for x8,maybe its not froyo or gingerbread but anything new is welcome
http://www.ptcrb.com/ctiastaff/complete/view_complete_request.cfm?modelid=17877
Wtf, more updates for what, maybe block root.
They should put aome sync support so we can sync libs from custom roms we will got better perfomance

For XperiaTM X10 mini, mini pro and X8 there are as communicated earlier no plans to update beyond the current Éclair version. There are two mains reasons for this: The XperiaTM X10 mini, X10 mini pro and X8 all have less RAM memory than XperiaTM X10. By this we can’t guarantee a good user experience by upgrading beyond Android 2.1. The upgrade of XperiaTM X10 also was made possible due to that we had a code base that mostly could be reused. For the mini’s, who have a different user interface, this possibility did not exist.

Max RAM i got with gingerbread is 90 MB and with froyo 111 MB,they skiped froyo,all their devices will run gingerbread so they dont want three devices run froyo,very simple.
But they want their devices to run Eclair? Yeah, hell lot of logic included...

Hey guys,
I just checked my girlfriend's X8 has this latest software update available (start of July 2011). I think it's now the 3rd update or so, the first being Android 2.1, the second something with Nike-Chip and the ability to cut videos and an office suite.
But somehow I can't find details on what this current 3rd update does (though it's a pretty popular phone?)
Has anybody checked it out already? SE's Backup-And-Restore-App always screws up the contacts and calendar entries, so I would like to know if it's worth the pain.
Edit: Oh and it's a branding-and-simlock-free X8 from Amazon ;-)
SE is full of bull****! They won't update our devices to Android 2.2 because they don't want! I'm using the Froyobread rom and i have 94MB of ram free. If they don't know how to work on their own phones, simply deliver the development to jerpelea, racht, doixanh or anyone able enough!

Sony should concentrate on finishing 4.0.4 and making a final release rather than releasing the current version of ics. Arc users will appreciate that much more, I think.

It's a nice idea to give Arc user a first look, but 4.0.3 it's still unstable in Arc, that's why they should finish 4.0.4 and then make it available to our phones. I still prefer custom roms, they seem to be working better.
we know how 4.0.3 is...but wat about the people who are not on xda forum? normal people who dunno anything about rooting or bootloader unlocking..or who dont want to do..actually they dont care whether its 2.3.4 or 4.0.3..but atleast for the name sake sony should release watever they have worked on ICS till now so that whole arc family can eat ice cream sandwich
...
i have lt15i and LT15i .69 firmware, just a moment ago i connected my xperia to pc companion and it wants me to update to newer firmware, i wonder if it is ics already?
i will post back in few half an hour when i flash it.

Trust me when I say that most everyday people will regret the ics update as it is now.
First . Camera video is not what it used to be. Most everyday people get the arc for the camera abilities.
Second. Games are pretty much screwed in ics. All I have now is angry bird and cut the rope.
Take some time to think about it. Will everyday non developers really appreciate ics ??

Guys stop whining about the ICS release. Guys like you ( no offence) wanted ICS to roll out very soon. People on xda wanted ICS to be released as it was under development. but when it was released people started whining about tje release has bugs. Please give Sony sometime to fix these issues.
HTC hmm. The htc incredible s which had a scheduled ics update last month didn't get anything. Htc is a fool if it is rolling out ics updates for outdated and non deserving devices earlier than their 2011 lineup. Even sensation series has not got the ics updates ATM.

They already promised ICS for 2011 Xperia phones.
Also, Sony Mobile is a much smaller team compared to HTC, Samsung and the likes so you can't expect the same stuff in the same duration.

Just my opinion: I wouldn't jump ship on an OS just because Sony couldn't make it work. I have an XPlay for personal use and a iPhone4 for work. I would gladly go back to my old Eris before making the iPhone my main device. If you're really hurting for something ICS-ish, unlock it and slap on a new ROM.

Sony ' investigating' Jelly Bean for all devices

Info suggesting no 2011 Xperias would get Jelly Bean was given "in error."
In a statement on its official product blog, Sony has reassured Xperia smartphone owners that it's still in the process of investigating which of its devices will receive updates to Android 4.1 Jelly Bean. The statement follows earlier reports, originating from one the company's own Facebook pages that 2011 Xperia handsets like the Xperia Arc and Xperia Mini Pro would not be getting updated.
The manufacturer said --
"During a Q&A session last week on our Sony Mobile GB Facebook page, a local spokesperson gave information out in error on our Android 4.1 Jelly Bean software development and rollout for 2011 Xperia smartphones.
"We are actively investigating Android OS upgrades for all devices, but in the meantime, our Ice Cream Sandwich rollout for Xperia S and 2011 Xperia smartphones continues as planned."

yup...as i had already said that a meeting would take place to decide which all devices will get JB 4.1
and i m pretty confident that arc s will definitely get this update

I think that too ,JB is not a major update just a few performance tweaks here and there.
Maybe its just a marketing strategy to make people buy Sony phones and then in the end moment they'll disregard the 2011 devices.

Sony(Ericsson) Did not disregard their customers from updates, Sony is one of manufacturers who's really into updating their Portfolio to the latest Android versions, look at their Update History compared to any manufacturers
2010
X8/X10mini: 1.6 > 2.1.1
X10: 1.6 > 2.1.1 > 2.3.2
2011
Xperia/Live: 2.3.2 > 2.3.3 > 2.3.4 > 4.0.3 > 4.0.4 > 4.1(?)
2012
Xperia: 2.3.7 > 4.0.4 > 4.1(?)
Right now, 2011 Xperia is one of the most updated Android Phones out there, and I believe they can be updated to 4.1
Awsome PR!!

My nexus S got 2x faster and smoother with jelly bean. My mums arc S on ICS is faster than nexus S on ICS but not the nexus S on JB. That tells you how significant a thing jelly bean is it is designed to make every phone smoother not just the high end ones. If nexus S with 512MB ram can run it so well then the arc S surely deserves it. it will become a beast with jelly bean.
Let's hope Sony don't make a mess of it. Official ICS hardly fills me with confidence!

Well this is certainly a relief ...& i was getting all gloomy & sad because i bought my ARC S 1 month ago.....lets just hope they come up with a 2011 model 4.1 JB update able list soon....I always like Sony Stock ROM ...so eagerly waiting & keeping my fingers crossed....:fingers-crossed:
i think form 2011 line ony HDPI phones will get JB , or MDPI phones will get update later
i said this before that facebook statement didn´t seem like an official statement to me and now we can see the real thing

Sorry for being a noob, but what is hdpi and mdpi?
Sent from my LT18i using xda premium
hdpi is 480x854, so it means Arc/S, Neo/V, Play, Ray or Pro
mdpi is 320x480 so Active, Live, Mini/Pro
Press Thanks if I helped.
