Xperia X2 software support schedule

I saw this link over at gsmarena.com which lead me here: http://xperiancers.com/2010/02/02/x...&utm_campaign=Feed:+Xperiancers+(Xperiancers)
Xperia X2 software support schedule
// February 2nd, 2010 // X2, X2 News
As the X2 begins to roll out globally, it’s only fair that customers know what kind of support we’ll be giving the phone in the months to come. It’s not news to say that we attracted some criticism for this on the X1 and we’re not going to go there again with the X2. So, for the record, this is what X2 customers can expect in terms of software upgrades.
In March, we’ll launch our first upgrade (MR1). It will upgrade Windows Mobile from 6.5.1 to 6.5.2 (which will improve both the stability and usability of the device), it will bring in the use of video telephony, an FM radio and it will introduce fast GPS to get a quicker fix. As well as all this, MR1 will upgrade a lot of the applications in the phone to improve speed, usability and fix any bugs we find.
The second update will go live in May and this will be a big one as it moves Windows mobile onto 6.5.3. This is a significant upgrade in terms of usability, performance, power management and the browser experience.
That’s the extent of our plans at the moment but I’ll update this post as we make any more decisions.
(ps. Before anyone asks, no it won’t ever go onto Windows Mobile 7, it won’t support the hardware.)

don't we all?
but as fair is fair, i don't take SE seriously any more...
at least they acknowledge their mistake and promise to do better.

Is it possible to update my x2 through online once the update is launched? Thanks

yes it should be through the sony update service since they are official updates.. you can download the update software from sony ericssons website. im sure someone will post on here when they become available. or just randomly try and update your phone every few days during march until something happens...

Fear not, it's a stable process.
Of course you can install Java,
in fact X2 has best Java results.

lol all i meant was you just connect to the update software every few days and see if it tells you if theres an update available. if theres no update then nothing happens. even if there is a newer update you still have the option to stop before anything happens.
remember to always make sure everything important is backed up before starting an update.
its a shame that sony dont have something on their website to inform people when a new update is out. would save having to connect to the update software to check. or even if they let us register and then they could email or text us...

but when you connect it to companion it will say your phone is up to date..
Im on THREE and as always we are always the last to get any updates
anyone with other UK network has got 2.1???
FOLLOW UP: Although links states it is there ,I had a quick chat with a represntative and she advised it will be released depending on the carrier and you should check with your own network about the release date

I'm on a generis phone in the UK (on Orange) and I've not recived any notification yet and have just checked via my phone for the latest software update and I've got the message saying I have the up to date software.
Cant check via my PC connection till I get home from work

No its not SE website says this on all country sites.
They are just to lazy to maintain each site seperately

No prompt on UK Generic thus far, still notifies software being the latest :/

Lol shouldn't you wait until they say its out? Nordic was announced 2 days before release.

You are wrong , when you go to the update on sony erricson website and it says new software available and then it asks you to connect the phone to pc companion...then this is a different story ... they didnt say it will be released later ,they provided you with links...so dont worry i read very well....

It's very deceptive.. states that the software has been released on the 1.11.10 but clearly hasn't (at least not yet)... but like other posters have said.. SE have put this on all their countries pages.. and could potentially get pulled up for false advertising over this...

As much as I'd like to agree, there's nothing being advertised here. No products being sold and no intended deception (as far as I can tell).
Also, November 1st is far from over in 80% of the world.

It's still going to be another couple of days in the UK due to additional testing according to their UK Twitter page....

Sony Ericsson Ambassador

Morning all!
I just wanted to say I'm a Sony Ericsson Ambassador based in one of the mobile network retail stores in the UK. If you have any questions you can't find the answers to either drop me a private message or send me something on twitter (SEyorkO2)
I'll do my best to get your questions answered and I'll also be posting information that I get my hands on (that I'm not forbidden to post )
I'm currently using the Arc as my primary phone and the Play as my bit on the side so these are my strongest subjects currently.
Look forward to hearing from you!
Due to lot's of questions coming through I'm going to write them all down and forward them onto the correct departments every Monday rather than constantly bombarding them. Once I get responses I'll post them at the bottom of this post.

Nice. Thanks for saying hi. Hoping to give you more questions when I get my SE XP (Xperia Play) back from service centre at SBE Limited.

Can you say if there are plans to integrate the PSN into the play or add trophy support?
Edit: Also there is a very cool PSN application for the android but is UK only. Do you know if there are plans to bring this app to the rest of the world? It has news, Blogs, friends and trophy list in it.
Edit 2: I have one more question. Who can we request a feature to? I love the Playstation app but I hate having to use three different launchers for my games. There is the Playstation app, the Pocket app and the normal desktop.
I would like the ability to add installed games to the Playstation app so I can slide the control pad and select any game I choose from the one that starts. So far some titles don’t show up there like the PSX games. I also have emulators that use the controls and would like that option. Or if sliding the controls down would give me a list of apps to run for instance a choice to run an emulator or the pocket app or the Playstation app. That would be cool.

I'll forward these onto my ADM and see if we can get some answers. WIth regards to the PSN intergration I believe there were plans for this before the play launched as we were told that the Play would have the same functionality as the Sony Ericsson Aino had. However now it all appears to be unofficial rumour.
I feel your pain regarding the multiple launchers for games and also the fact that they won't auto rotate while browsing through my selection.
We are constantly being told that both the Play and the Arc will be receving major new features with software updates so heres hoping for more playstation intergration. I'll see what I can dig up for you though!

are you serious? So it's not going to be tied into the PSN? What a load of ****...

We need better pc software, the sony ericsson pc suite is rubbish. Its like a cheap piece of software you get with a no brand piece of electrical equipment
and needs updating.
Any chance this will happen?

This reminds me of SamsungJohn from the Captivate section. Lol

Anything SONY related regarding the Xplay is a joke, how long has the phone been out now & how many ps1 games are available or dedicated Xplay games released?
Op really does has big balls coming on here claiming to be from S.E.
Personally, I smell a Troll.

I bought the phone for emulators.
If you was hoping for it to be a proper Sony handheld system you should of waited to buy the NGP. (vita or w/e).
The Xplay is first and foremost an Android phone with Android and Gameloft games.
I didnt see any mention of titles like God of War or LBP being made for it. And if Sony Ericsson actually did claim this, i wouldnt of believed it anyway.
SE is not Sony.
SE is a London based/Swedish input company that works and is a division for Sony Japan.
It is a different entity from Sony.

No you see, that's where you're wrong:
"Sony Ericsson Mobile Communications AB is a joint venture established on October 1, 2001[1] by the Japanese consumer electronics company Sony Corporation and the Swedish telecommunications company Ericsson to manufacture mobile phones. The stated reason for this venture is to combine Sony's consumer electronics expertise with Ericsson's technological knowledge in the communications sector. Both companies have stopped making their own mobile phones."
I'm still a firm believer that Sony will support this phone in ways. I'm not banking on them releasing amazing games and ps1 titles, that doesn't bother me. I have fpse for that, and the Android Market, Gameloft also does what I need it to. I'm just hopeful that we will get some decent games from Sony. But I'm happy having it for the emulators for the moment

I personaly could care less if sony does anything for this phone. I already got everything I want for it. There is enough to keep me happy for years to come.

Hmmm, that is why it is a "Sony Playstation" certified phone?
I bought this phone because it was Playstation certified and I fully expect Sony to support it with some great games “like” God of War. GOW port would be perfect and make it worth the purchase but I Have them both on my PSP so I don’t really care. But I do expect better than regular android games with improper button support.

Sony "may" port games over, but highly unlikely.
Here's how i see it -
1) Ericsson (a swedish company) struck a deal with Sony and merged into a telecommunications company called Sony Erriccsson. They moved headquarters to London.
2) Sony Ericcson made a new phone with a playstation pad and got it certified by Sony Entertainment, Playstation division.
3) All Sony would of done was say "yep, make the phone half decent, get our brand on it and we will certify it".
I doubt anybody on the gaming side of Sony even got involved with the production of this phone.
This phone to me is a pure Android phone that can play emulators with a decent control pad.
Thats all i wanted. Thats all i will get. IMO thats all it is ever going to be.

You’re wrong. Sony wouldn't certify the phone without plans to support it. Ericson is part of Sony just like Sony makes Toys, TVs, among other things.

Yea but sony has bigger and better things out there, a playstation phone is whatever to them they brought it out to satisfy a certain crowd nothing more just you watch

Gps/glonass

Hi,
I read that sony ericsson is going to update their 2011 Xperia products so the GPS can additionaly receive GLONASS signals.
as far as I read about GLONASS the signals are quite similar to GPS, so there wouldn't be much to modify.
As I'm quite a noob on the G3's GPS I wanted to ask if anyone knows if it would be possible to add this feature to G3's GPS system too.

1st of all , wrong section to ask.
2ndly , that is hardware modification!
May be possible (hillbest may do it adding new chips or something , he is great hardware dev) , but no one would try that!

He says in the top post that Sony Ericsson are going to UPDATE their Xperia range which means that they are going to give a firmware/software update so i don't think it's a hardware modification unless Sony Ericsson are willing to take back the millions of mobiles they sold, take them apart, add the new modifications and post them back to the owner of the mobile.

As far as i am aware, Sony Ericsson stated that their Xperia line up was already ready with the required hardware to support Glonass, and now only the subsequent software/firmware modifications were needed. I do not think we have the required hardware/chip needed to perform such a function.

Well I would like to correct you guys that first of all it's SONY no more ericsson and second they are going to use that glonass thing in the upcoming xperia lined up.
So no use of this thread I think.!

In fact, it appears that some of the 2011 Xperia range (Xperia arc, Xperia arc S, Xperia ray, Xperia neo, Xperia pro, Xperia PLAY, Xperia active and Live with Walkman) also have GLONASS support with the latest software update.

http://www.xperiablog.net/2012/01/22/sony-ericsson-confirms-glonass-navigation-support-for-new-xperia-range/
it's a software update, not hardware. I just wanted to know if one of the devs who already worked with the GPS knows if this can be done on G3 too
anyway as far as I know the signals from the GLONASS satelite is quite similar to the ones given by the GPS satellites. so it might be possible to receive them even with old GPS hardware

GLONASS can be enabled in every phone with Qualcomm MSM8255 Snapdragon chipset...

A Petition for sony to add Camera2 API support

THey guys i just created this petition for sony to add Camera2 API , in a Sony forum , Sony Xperia Staff stated that they will add this feature if there is a huge demand on it .
" we will consider this for the future if there is a popular demand "
http://talk.sonymobile.com/t5/Software-Updates/Camera2-API/td-p/974742
So i just created this petition to show the great demand of users , please share it all over xda

Thank you!

I'm pretty sure a petition already exists

This is something else , my petiotion is for Camera2 API , check the sony website they said they will support it if they find huge demand.
that petition has nothing to do with that

Guys please share it , just copy the link and post on other threads, we need to reach thousands so sony can see it and see the demand

Are you really that naive? Support for the device ended after ICS 4.0.4 and you really expect them to add support to Camera2 API (which by the way is an Lollipop feature)?

@RollingRoman uhh noobs again , this forum is for all sony devices and you can see it in any sony device forum , but for sure we only mean devices that are still in support

Man..please, forgot about ended support 4.0.4, it's xperia 2011 series..... For that, hope that CM12 would release lollipop update with Camera2 API..
Now we're talking about the Z series (maybe T2 Ultra and C3 too) which got official lollipop update and yes, Camera2 API is a part of lollipop feature. We're hoping sony to release an update featured with Camera2 API and this is cross-sony device section.. So it means all "SONY" related thing is here.. sorry, no hard feeling no harshing.. PEACE NO WAR brother..

Signed. I hope we succeed.I also wrote to Sony. Here is their answer:
Dear Mr. Tochev,
Thank you for contacting Sony Xperia Support.
With regards to your inquiry, we would like to inform you that Android™ 5.0 supports the new camera features via android.hardware.camera2, and Google™ defines three modes for the new camera features:
1.Legacy mode (no support RAW capture)
2.Limited mode (optional capability for RAW capture)
3.Full mode (optional capability for RAW capture)
Currently, Xperia™ supports Legacy mode in our Lollipop update which incorporate features and functionality in addition to our already renowned camera experience.
As always, we monitoring our customer expectations and regarding supporting taking pictures in RAW format, we will consider this for the future if there is a popular demand.
They write the exxact same thing everytime.We have to push them harder to succeed.

@BlAckXpeRia
Let's show them the demand

Actually i think its nothing more than scripted customer care reply...It will take a lot of work for them to incorporate camera 2 api in our devices and i don't think they will bother..maybe incorporate it in future devices or something.

''We did it'' one may say only when Sony pushes this API on all LP devices. Untill then, and i think they will keep it that way because they need to seel the new phone somehow, we should keep raising our voice, as it is not fair to have a damn good hardware that is ''ruined'' by lousy software. They need to enhance it ASAP in my opinion, or else Sony is risking a bad reputation going even worse...

I think it will come atleast for Z2 and Z3. They are really similar. But no matter what Sony does, I am stuck with them. I just can't get away from that beautiful design and software. All other manufactures have things I hate(LG-plastic, Samsung-software, nexus line and motorola- awful camera). My only problem with Sony is the new API. And they don't forget their devices-even the 2012 xperia z has lollipop and may get M.

Its not guaranteed to come to z3 or even z2, z1 and grampa z we can now easily forget since z has an expired 18 months period and z1 is close to expiration... Further on, LG G$ as it stands has way more superior camera then z3, Samsung is also investing hugely in marketing, and only thing Sony needs to do basically to survive is to a) improve software department, not so much the overall UI but software in camera for instance, it lags behind Samsung, Apple and LG as things stand, but they mosty use Sony's hardware, more limited one, so there is no objection for not handling software part more effectivley. and B) to improve customer relations, as we all know Sony is always lagging with announcments for new software features, heck they event dont know if the M2 or T3 are in plans for LP upgrade (which is lousy)!!!!
Onwards, remember the explanation provided for question wheter Sony will publish and software update for camera2 API or not, Sony gave as a bunch of c**p and basically told us ''oh, go f**k yourself with that'' masked in ''if there will be public demand we will then see...''
Of corse there is public demand, why wouldn't there be on since people always appreciate good featured updates. Look at Samsung, they are doing everything they can to fix camera things, publishing updates more oftenlly then Sony Social networks CM published something on either Social network used by Sony.
