As the title says, Sony when are you going to get the finger out your collective ear holes and release a software fix for Ginger Bread OS handsets.
I have been aruing blue in the face with O2, as 02 will not release the current ICS update, due to the handset being slowed down and problematic with the software release of 4.1.B.0.587.
Sony says this is the fix, O2 sdays it is n ot, all the while, the consumer & customer, me is left with a handset that cannot be used properly on a vehicles factory fitted Hands Free system.
What are you going to do about this Sony, eh?
And please, do not do your usual Sony Moderators and ignore this issue, as i will not go away!
Nobody has an answer for your predicament, man... We're all in the same bucket... Let's hope we'll get a LAST/ GOOD ICS update....
LAST/ GOOD ICS update....
+1
I'm not sure that will be updated... 
Unfortunately there will be no more updates under Gingerbread for the 2011 phones. I'm not sure yet if there will be another ICS update for the 2011 phones but I keep forwarding you guys feedback about this.
Johan. What do you mean, "Not sure yet IF ther will be another ICS update".
I (insert swear workd of your choice) hope to H E L L there is going to be more than one update, regardless. As, as far as i am concerned, my handset is only 9 months old annmd as such sould be supported the full duration of the contract!
If you Sony, whichever phone manufacturer is only going to support handsets for max of 12 months or less, then 1. You need to reduce the costs of handsets, as they are disposable after 6 months if not being fully supported and 2. Need to sit down with the network providers then and come up with a better scheme for contract length.
After the slap in the face from your company to all with the X10i & fiasco, i thought you guys had got your act together and this was the only reason i came back to your brand, but i am begining to get a bitter sweet taste in regards to the level or lack of real cusrtomer care from the Sony brand name!
I have been offered a Samsung Galaxy S2 or S3 by my network O2, due to the current carry on with the ICS update and performance issues, but i would rather be with Sony if they would only appreciate the customer more and support their handset to the duration of contract agreements by network providers. Plus this is something my network provider should not have to do and as such, please take this as an act of real customer care, not what we get from Sony, nothing!
I'm not sure yet if there will be another ICS update for the 2011 phones
I hope this is a bad joke!!!
According to the news of october 19, Sony made great announcements to continue to support all 2011 Xperia devices with firmware maintenance releases. (source)
Where are these updates and bugfixes!? 
Last update (...587) is very bad and now they tell us "no more update for xperia 2011 device"?!
Shame!
Sony Mobile promissed to release further firmware maintenance updates:
Beyond Ice Cream Sandwich we would not able to guarantee owners of these smartphones the user experience you expect and we demand. We will however, continue to support all these products with firmware maintenance releases.

For me that means at least fixing the all the bugs in ICS. I am waiting for over five months now for some information about how Sony is going to handle those software problems...
But as always there is silence now!
I completely agree with you all. Sony is now not taking necessary actions to help the customers of 2011 series as they are busy in only launching new handsets and make there bussiness. Sony don't act like a meat shop where u only sell to earn. rest all is a big F***. Maintain ur brand name and act acordingly.
C'mon Sony Moderators, what is happening here. Johan?
