Original ICS software - neo V

[#1]

I recently upgraded to ICS on my neo V. I found it very good customer orientation from Sony Mobiles by providing the timely update of the software. However, I got some issues with the upgrade.

(1) The frontend of the sotware is just like before - Why is Sony Moibles not providing an option for using original/vanilla ICS ??

(2) Unnecessary apps e.g. Sony Mobile apps and facebook etc... - Why am I forced to keep these useless apps (approximately 20) on my phone... ?? Why don't you provide to delete those apps which I do not need....

(3) All those crapy apps without use has made my phone slow in ICS.... -

Is there any way to use the Sony Mobiles neo V hardware with plain vanilla ICS software?? Or does Sony Mobiles provied an option to switch the OS?

Thanks,

Best regards,

I can't comment on why there is no Android vanilla version available from Sony to you because I don't know. The phone comes with our software and customization which we think makes the phone a Sony phone. App's like Facebook are integrated in several way in the system and can't be uninstalled. But in ICS you can disable app's which you don't use to increase your performance.

If you do not like the our software and only would like to run your phone completely vanilla you will have to use some other ROM. But by doing this you'll need root access and also maybe to unlock your boot loader and by doing that you may void your warranty. So I don't recommend you to do that if you would not like to risk your warranty.
