Lol read carefully.
All the Xperias will get it. It's just the Alpha, not even Beta.

No need for a new thread

Just read this on the page as well
Also, if you unlock the boot loader, you will not be able to download and install the final Ice Cream Sandwich software upgrade from Sony Ericsson.
Just in case someone was going to unlock to try the alpha

First of all, this is an alpha release!
Second, any bugs should be posted at the development section. Please only post it where it belongs. This isn't development post.

@ crazymister...
At least he is posting bugs. And when I have my arc S ( a couple days from now) I will be gratefull for his post, so i know what I can expect when I flash this Alpha ROM...
So Abhishek Maity, thanks for your useful post.

FlashTool should update phones with unlocked bootloader to 4.0 once a firmware file is posted here.

My humble opinion is that one should not have any expectations from an alpha ROM. They only gave it to us in order to provide our feedback to SE. And because KalleD (an employee of SE) is following the thread in the Development section, bugs should be posted there, so they can help those involved in the update-making and all of us of course.

Yes. Unlocked bootloader is necessary to flash CM7 from J/FXP.
This news has been around awhile now ever since the FreeXperia series merged with CM tree on Github. It was only a matter of time before it became "official".

CM7 for X10

Why do you think it is taking so long to have a stable version of CM7 for Xperia X10? Its brothers and sisters already have theirs (Neo, Ray, Mini, Mini Pro, Play, etc.)
...
yeah actually there is a second patch for 2011 xperia range and nothing on the X10 f**cking x10 always i have to wait wait wait and wait

Well I suggest helping J "fxp" in helping making a fully stable working version then. That's why there is a delay because it's waiting to be deemed as "fully stable". It will be the same rom as in on here so join the bug hunt and perhaps think about a slughtly more constructive post next time....

Because CM for that device also made by same person & team. Gosh...J and FXP also human. Just give them more time. By the way FXP43 just released. Go try that Rom and report the bug properly if you want this Rom asap.
And btw, we are not allowed to ask for ETA. Stick to the forum rule. Cheers

This rom is great, but the camera app sucks! No 720p, no zoom in/out, no face detection and more stuff from stock GB camera app. Stock camera app looks much better. It Is Possible to replace CM7 FXP camera with stock GB camera app? Rom is really brilliant, fast, stable and smoothly, but this flaw really pisses me off.
quick answer : No.

Maybe because SE support for devs wasn't good enough? I've read that Sony provided libs and stuff for fxp team, which is awesome, but i'm afraid it was mostly for the 2011 ones.

Unlock your bootloader and flash an ICS rom. Better than having the standard crap Sony Ericsson skin ruining the phone.
As an added bonus, all the best games i.e SNES emulators, work
Getting the Play for Android games is a waste of a gamepad........
Ics on r800 doesnt support bt headphones :c
Wysyłane z mojego R800i za pomocą Tapatalk 2
there are rumors the play won't get ics due to some memory issue
no mentions at sony though lets be optimistic
Sony: It's gonna be on Late Feb / Early Apr. Lol nope.
Sony: It will surely be on Late Apr / Early May. Lol wait more.
Sony: It's officially on Late May / Early June. Lol, don't remember that.
Hope Sony won't push the update until the end of 2012.
Hopefully all the games we love are compatible wth that updte.. Bt thts unlikely to hppen..

when i unlock my bootloader and flash the rom if i want to revert all i have to do is flash custom rom and relock bootloader?

Yeah. Trust me though, the best ICS rom to flash for the Play is AOKP
Now it has theme support so its possibly the best ICS rom in terms of customization

Please stop with these threads already, these and the "what's the best rom" as well as the "Xperia play 2 patent submitted" type of threads are a waste of time IMHO, when there's one of them, fine, but you don't need ten threads for one announcement.

Agreed. No reason for someone to make another thread to the same topic, if need be just use whatever thread is current. OTherwise just wasting space on the forums and it makes it less likely that someone with a real question or thread is not going to be seen unless someone diggs through all the posts.
Xperia S is not on the list either... This is obviously the list of phones that are receiving updates in the current roll out.

First of all, I really, reaaaally doubt that the developers behind MiUI intend to port it to an ldpi or mdpi (low or medium resolution device).
The reason for that being that even if we may still see phones with physically small screens in the future, the dots-per-inch are going to be definitely higher.
So, this petition is not going to help. However, I would leave the thread open, if you people had not turned it into a flaming field. Oh well...
