Yea, Sony is helping FXP team to include HDMI in CM ROMs. But that won't make HDMI open-source still.

If not, my real great hope is that they release another qwerty slider phone like the xperia pro. This thing is badass!

yes, I can't believe that there are so less people who want to have a quertz/y keyboard, so it would be great if the existing phones fully work without exceptions.

Yes, everyone is fixated on huge screens and fail to recognize the flaws of touch screen keyboards. You can only type so fast on a touch screen before you slip up. People wonder how I reply so fast to their texts. I just hold up my phone, slide out the keyboard, and take a bow.

2011 devices are legacy devices now. They are no longer actively supported by FXP. I don't think HDMI will be available for our devices, it's time to move on.

Pity I received my Xperia Arc by Dec 2011 and Sony already dropped the support (no JB on the horizon). Now even the mod community is moving on. Well, at least we had the JB update thanks to the modders :good:

Some good news?

hdmi for cm10 is my dream, I'm tired of using all these terrible and slow stock roms

stock roms are really terrible :crying:

need some magic

I don't see anything happening about HDMI over that link, its all about audio thing.
The only reason i use stock rom is the camera because i like taking picture randomly everywhere otherwise there is no point using the lame stock roms.
Yeah, we have KITKAT

good news :victory:

maybe theres only pinch zooming but no real multitouch..
So if we want to buy this device, we must hope that they phone will not have the same touchscreen as us.
wtf? it supports MT.
Wait and you'll se i'm right.

If they don't do multitouches or make it better, then I think the world will hate Sony Ericsson.

If there's no MT, to all readers, stay clear of SE! Tell them to go back like Nokia, making dump phone!
Hi Everyone,
Thanks for helping us spot this error. Josh has updated the comments to reflect that the Xperia mini and Xperia mini pro do support multitouch. Our Xperia X10 mini and Xperia X10 mini pro are the devices without multitouch. Sorry for any confusion this caused.

Wifi direct in ICS

My understanding was that wifi direct was supported by ICS. However, having updated my transformer there is no sign of it. I was hoping to use it for communicating with my Galaxy s2. Anyone know what happened to it?
note this isn't a moan as such, as overall I'm very happy with the update, its just a function I was expecting and hoping to make use of is missing and I wondered if anyone knew why?

You don't have to explain yourself. Only a dumbass immature fanboy would attack you and call your question a "moan".

I thought wifindirect had to be supported even on a hw level
Yea you need a device that supports it and the Galaxy Nexus was the first certified device.
My Xperia Arc A with ICS beta has wifi direct.

The galaxy s2 supports wifi direct out of the box and that is older than the nexus.
Having said that I didn't realise there was a hardware side to it.

Did the xperia support wifi direct under gingerbread though? This would support the view that there is a hardware requirement.
Thanks to all who have replied so far.

OK, so I have flashed all three files, seperately to test them out and it may be me, but my notification light stopped working. I had to restore a nandroid to get it to work again.
If anyone tries this please make a backup first, and report if it works for you or not. According to the source it works on all 2011 xperia devices.
The user who made the zip said "it should work on whole 2011 Xperia series as long as you are on stock based GB/ICS"

Yes. It's so tiring. Especially when we wait some improvements from a firmware that have many of lacks.

I like how the source is xda itself lol
According to xperiablog there's no 4k,tap2wake,smart call handling in the build. That's really upsetting. At least they could've given tap2wake...
if they give us all the new features of the z2 then there is no reason to upgrade. i dont expect anything special from the kitkat update

why???
It's normal behavior, in fact it makes no sense to wait long for "nothing"... but now as many have said the failure to implement all the features of z2 with an update is linked to the interests of the company ... who would rise from z1 to z2 if you can get the same thing at a lower price?
And this is the main problem of the technology, not only of Sony
However this is xda
Inviato dal mio C6903 utilizzando Tapatalk
Nowhere in the sourced thread does it mention the update is rolling out. Unless I missed something, only the random HK/Chinese user that got it is mentioned.

for me all what matters is that our developers gets the new kernel as hopefully it will increase our device performance !
Sent from my C6903 using Tapatalk
I am certainly not gonna find excuses for Sony's despicable behaviour. Z1 is only 6 months old, it should be fully supported and get all the new features it can handle. We helped Sony become more relevant in the mobile market and that's how they reward their customers? They really expect us to pay 600$ twice a year if we want a decent update? That's just dishonest! Shame on you Sony!!!
I just want kit kat and its default kit kat features, tap 2 wake and maybe if I'm lucky the abilty to display the homescreen wallpaper on the lockscreen so i can have Muzei LW on both
