Such a possibility, many did not solve the problem.
Something is going on, so just wanted to share with U and give (back) some hope:

"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.

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.
Sony just revealed that remaining 2011 xperia smartphone will get upgraded to ICS 4.0.4 next week, except Xperia PLAY(poor u) in order not to affect gaming performance.
NXT series will get the upgrade in the order of S, P, and then U.
Now, we are happy to confirm that the remaining 2011 smartphones; Xperia arc, Xperia neo, Xperia mini, Xperia mini pro, Xperia pro, Xperia active and Sony Ericsson Live with Walkman will start to receive their updates starting from next week.
This software upgrade will be Android version 4.0.4 and the good news is that this latest version will also be made available for Xperia arc S, Xperia ray and Xperia neo V users, who received Android 4.0.3 the first time around.
In regards to Xperia PLAY, after extensive in house testing with our developer teams and working with our partners, we have concluded that a consistent and stable experience, particularly with gaming, cannot be guaranteed for this smartphone on Ice Cream Sandwich – therefore, we will not make the Android 4.0 upgrade available for Xperia PLAY.

Thanks for giving such a great news..
yea.. i saw xperia s running 4.0.4 few days ago..it was damn smooth though..
I was wondering the same question how will Sony fix the gaming problem on ICS for the Xperia play? And there is the answer may it be just for now, no ICS for play until the gaming problem is solved. Great news for my Arc S
is there any particular date for ics to come???
and thnxxxx for the news
bec just had a rom of android 4.0.4 and now only i had put the stock .62 fw for the ics
And Gud news is tat 4.0.4 wil be available for Arc S, Neo V and Ray which got a buggy 4.0.3 update. ;-)

Finally! I've been waiting for this for a while now and was jealous of the arc S, which received the ICS update earlier.
I'm hoping for a 'smooth' experience with 4.0.4. Any idea if we'd be getting a newer kernel?

I really hope they fix the touchscreen issues. And the gaming issues too.

probably this is the decision made by sony and the game vendors
This decision was also verified when we received similar feedback from the developer community; both experienced developers and advanced users, along with game content providers following our ICS beta ROM for unlocked Xperia PLAY smartphones.

previously sony said ICS will still run with the obsolete kernel 2.6.32 in order to release ICS as quickly as possible in January. i just hope after 4-5 months of development they can release a 3.0 kernel in the near future.
we also see xperia s running ICS with 3.0.8 kernel, hope Sony or some skilled developer could port it to xperia arc?
It is rather quick to get a new kernel up and running, but it takes a lot of testing and validation to make it stable and run with the modem, get a good battery performance etc. Quite some effort has been put in to the Sony Ericsson 2.6.32 kernel, to make it as stable and reliable as possible for the 8255 platform, and we do not feel that the user benefit of a new kernel would justify a later release date.

P.S. some people asked in sony's latest blog post about the kernel but Sony hasn't responded yet.
I had a doubt that how is this possible..
No new firmwares certified from PTCRB..

That does not mean anything. Sony released 4.0.2.A.0.62 for all Arc devices but do you see it on that site as certified?
FINALLY! I can't tell you guys for how long I have been waiting for this update..I hope that my Xperia Arc will finally be smooth now

Yes, for the Arc S.
http://www.ptcrb.com/vendor/complete/view_complete_request_guest.cfm?modelid=20152
I think if they certify a release for the Arc S then it can include the Arc, and vice-versa.
They should atleast then give us the sources of the final stock ICS kernel...
Finally!

Hey Forum,
Just to let you know, a few days ago Sony posted on their site that they will be releasing ICS for their Xperia Devices, But the X10 is not listed and thus is presumed will not be getting the upgrade to ICS.
Devices being upgraded to ICS are:
Xperia NXT:
Xperia S, Xperia P, Xperia U

2011 Range: Updated Last month
"Xperia arc S, Xperia ray and Xperia neo"

Click to collapse
Other 2011 Range:
"Xperia arc, Xperia neo, Xperia mini, Xperia mini pro, Xperia pro, Xperia active and Sony Ericsson Live"
Click to expand...

Xperia Play will Not be recieving the update either because Sony have identified that gaming on this OS may not be
"stable and persistant."
Click to expand...

I think they should release some sort of source or an update to help out the developers who are currently working on a custom CM9 ICS for the X10.
What are your thoughts?
Peace

been there done that...
this is too backdated to be here....
It's sad that xperia play doesn't get ICS . Now I have to mod my bro's xperia.
We don't need sony's laggy rom

Sure. Sony phones do usually get 2 years of support. We've still got time until summer 2019

Did you even read the official blog post by Sony? They said that the devices will start to get Pie from November. It won't get it this month.

Exactly there. Maybe it shows when you update the Support app. Either that, or it's region related.

It's as up-to-date as Software Update is allowing. Perhaps North America is low on the update priority list

i am super-relieved that Sony did not implement the awful new open apps carousel or the new split-screen mode.
