Android 5 Key Lime Pie - Xperia Arc General

It seems that the version 5 KLP of Android will be optimized for older phones too...

its just rumors

If this rumour is true, don't hold your breath for Sony coming back to us.

even if it was true, we wouldn't get it

you apparently forgot about FXP team... these guys can work miracles, too bad I sold my lovely arc s ;(

The rumors, according to the article behind the bold letters , seem to be true. It's logically for Google to optimize Android for cheap (not necessarily old) phones, having in mind that WP8 for example is really smooth on modest hardware.
But, Hell Yeah, I'm afraid you all are right.
Sony will not come back to us. Two years ago, I had an Xperia X8 and Sony stopped the development to 2.1 Eclair, letting all owners without the native possibility to move apps to SD card. They used the same expression: "SONY cannot guarantee a satisfactorily user experience". Useless to say that the geniuses from XDA developed versions far beyond Gingerbread.
But, hope remains always ...

Will see that if we really get the update.. If arc gets ics then SG II users will regret buying it. According to sources excynos chipset hardly get ics.
what i worry is android 4.0 is design for dual core phone. i just hope arc can handle it well.=/

Hopefully the Arc gets ICS. And hopefully it includes a fix for the stupid 0%-1% battery issue asap!

Yup . most 2.3 devices should have that upgrade . but will it be smooth for us non dual core phone. that the worry=) lets hope for the best
You'd imagine they would have to SOME forethought into what may be on the horizon when releasing the Arc when they did and when they knew ICS was coming out. Hopefully it will be out and work like a dream while fixing my 1% battery

ICS Upgrade

Thought id start this thread to create a bit of build up to the upgrade, im a regular arc user so ive still got another month or so to wait but il feel good if the arc s gets theirs on time, which being the end of march could be any day now. Sony seem to be quiet on this, anyone heard anything?
I'm hoping they release the ICS for arc s by the end of this weekend, the suspense is killing me slowly lol. I check this forum and sony blog post every morning.
As they said late March to early April, that could mean the update would between 15 March and 15 April.
Would love to get an update from SE on the progress for the first phones that are due upgrades.
Clearly feeling a little bit left out now that Samsung are releasing theirs.
Hasn't HTC also updated a device?
Sony is behind - again
Sent from my iPad 2 using Tapatalk
I'm very enthusiastic about ICS too but doesn't it mean that we won't have our devices rooted anymore? I've linked tons of apps via Link2SD and my Arc don't have enough space to hold them all.
I'm worried when we will have to upgrade to ICS, AFAIK a lot of apps out there is not yet compatible with ICS, until the developer will upgrade the app.
But I'm also Excited because lots of optimization and features will be available to us, specially that Adreno 205 Driver will be included(I read it somewhere)

I think otherwise. Almost every app I tried is fully compatible with ICS.
Also, Sony has announced the neo L in China and it launches with ICS on board. It uses the same chipset as the arc (MSM8255). Perhaps we could port it when someone gets and uploads the filesystem dump, that is, if the device comes out sooner than the ICS update.
There's nothing on PTCRB yet and updates usually appear on here well in advance of the update actually being pushed. So it could still be weeks away assuming they haven't had any serious issues they need to fix first. It's been 4 weeks since the beta and not a peep from the Sony devs here on XDA which is a shame.

I don't think it will be a problem. I also have an Asus Transformer TF101, and that got ICS a few weeks back, no application compatibility problems, and it's REALLY quick (it was quick before anyway).

yeah i agree, in their blog post they stated "Over the next months we will be keeping you up to date on progress and we will also share video demos of the new software running on 2011 Xperia™ smartphones." it doesnt look good....
Probably see it in April, just my safe guess.
I am really looking forward to being able to force gpu acceleration because I don't like scrolling lag
i hope 2011 xperia can still support jelly bean in the future...
By XDA sure, by sony no. I doubt they will release another major update after this. Look at the X10, got gingerbread update and that was it.

There's 50% chance they will do it and if they do, Jelly Bean will probably be the last major update.

In my perspective, it seems that JellyBean is to IceCream Sandwhich what GingerBread was to Froyo. Countless bug fixes and new features while maintaining the same UI (more or less)

Thought people would have learned by now? I mean, we do have ICS working on our phones
Wait for the time to come. Its the only one we can do now. Maybe i'll buy one of the next sony android. But this lovely walkman will be my first android and i'd like to keep it anyway....
Sung to you by a walkman.....
Thats the spirit!!! I am personally not going to waste money on a new phone just because it has a better android. This one is good for me for now and I love it more than others I had before. And afterall we will port it one day (I mean you not me XD- but who knows .. I started to learn now more about developing).
My W8 is my first android phone, and it won't be my last. I'm not selling it. IMO xda is the final word on what android version we can have on our phones. But if the devs in xda say it's impossible to port X android version to our w8/x8 then that's when i'll change phones.
But i ain't parting with my w8, locked bootloader and all.

Cheap thread . Sources are out middle of July, Jelly's faster and spicked with more features than ICS. Shouldn't be hard for our devs to update, but it'll take several weeks till the sources are out.
Well in all seriousness, this "project butter" featured in 4.1 is looking very appealing to me. If this Jelly Bean OS all goes well, I might not have to buy a new phone for maybe another year?

it incorporates smooth UI feature pioneered by developers here on xda.also something about CPU and gpu working together and not fighting for resources.
nexus 7 tablet is reasonably future proofed I think btw.except for maybe the ram.
