sony ericsson xperia arc s (lt18i) update 4.1 JB?

[pvolab]

Good evening! Interested in a full answer will come to be updated on this machine, if so, tell everyone what devices are on the 2011 update did not come out. If you do not have this information now, please tell me when exactly will be known whether or not.

By the end of the year we expect the solution JB?

A lot of that at the moment is on the forum, but there is no exact answer. Please give as much as possible a full and clear answer on this question. thank you

I definitely hope the next update for 2011 models is going to be Jelly Bean. But a simple bugfix would be great too!

It's pretty annoying that Sony doesn't say anything about software issues and how to continue.

Or they (Sony) are (is) just waiting for JB to get improved or something because there is already 4.1.1.

I really hope so!

But as far as I know Sony there would be a big announcement if they'd finally release JB for 2011 Xperias. Updates are always a great thing for Sony but bugfixes apparently not.

Yeah, we know it, uliwooly. I  have recently talked  to a developer from where I reside (Romania) although he's not working for Sony. He said it's not up to them but to upper-management even the devs have good ideas they are not always looked into. That is the sad fact.

Indeed, it's a bit odd that Sony wants to be #1 android OEM by releasing 14+ phones per year and not releasing timely android updates nor updates to fix bugs and issues, but expecting us/users to buy a new phone with the latest bug free (not so bug free) android version. Instead of releasing timely updates, fix bugs, do NOT release that many phones but concentrate on 3 or 4 per year.

[ArcSBlack]

Amen to that!

They want to get that money paid to Ericsson for overtaking their share.:)

In the light of what the user in the attachment said (which I, for one, reluctantly tend to agree) my question goes like this:

Are we, 2011 Sony Ericsson users ever going to get a newer update than 4.0.X? :finger crossed:

[ArcSBlack]

As you all know, Sony's flagship Odin which will be released  not untill 2013 will be running 4.1.1 So what about 2012 line? I, who represent the 2011 line what can I expect??  Sad day!!!
