As the title already says with the upcoming Xperia Z on the horizon, I recognized, lots of developers are going to switch.
My question now is, who of you awesome developers will stay with us and our beloved Xperia S and keep us updated with new awesome roms/features/themes/apps?
I would also take this chance to thank all of you for your epic and hard work!
I will stay

It depends on how much of develop knowledge I get this year. If I get enough money and dev knowledge. I'm moving.

No don't leave us krab! I love my s but the z looks cool. Little big for my taste though. I have the money but as long as development stays strong I'll hold off.

]Hi guys,
I'm new to Sony's and I'm wondering what options I have for roms with a locked bootloader;
I did search but I'm on my phone and tapatalk doesn't do a great job.
Is it possible to get jellybean on with a locked bootloader?
I'm after some thing quick,and good on battery life.
Thanks in advance
Phil.

Better stay on stock rom with locked bootloader.I suggest not to unlock bootloader even. Not worthy

Something you have installed will be draining battery, not the rom.
How bad is the drain?

I'd say stock has better battery life for me so I'd stay on stock but on the other hand once you start flashing you can't stop. So read up and do it! You can always come back to stock if your not happy. Who needs.

I flashed it already and I can flash-coming from a galaxy s3 I was constantly trying new roms,
Was just trying to get a feel of what I can flash with a locked bootloader

I was just reading about down gradeing to gingerbread,
Apprently it's better on battery and the camera focus issue seem better?

Yea but its old and slow
Sent from my Jellybean Xperia S
For me the best rom for locked bootloader is MIUI.
Much more usable and configurable and has best autonomy. With stock or stock based roms I never pass a full day, with miui I can use 1.5 days with the same normal use.
On both roms I use 3g only when need to access the Web and airplane mode when sleeping.

Hi guys
I was wondering if we r going to see android 4.2 for our ions
Sent from my Xperia ion using xda premium
I chatted with a Sony employee yesterday and he told me that the XS will get a 4.2.2 update. Tbh, I don't think so, but if the xs gets one more big update, the ion should get it as well.

Very unlikely, but could happen. However, I would prefer 4.3 instead of 4.2.

Pretty much this, I don't know why people want 4.2 so much since it's only a minor update.

But official support is good for all xperia s users.and now we also have developer preview drivers for 4.2+ dor snap Dragon s3.here is a link for that.

Now cynogenmod can make cm11 or cm10.2 easier than before.

Exactly, if the user base increases they pay attention. Every OEM does that.

XPERIA M is the only Android device using the Qualcomm MSM8227.
Nokia Lumia 520 (one third of all Nokia WP) is another phone using the MSM8227.
Is Qualcomm updating Android drivers for this chipset?? If not, Sony has nothing to work with anyway.
[Update]
It is reported that Vodafone Australia is awaiting the testing of a Sony XPERIA C190x Android v4.3 build.
We'll have to see what pans out.
Android 4.3 in testing for XPERIA M according to Vodafone

I have downloaded the tx ROM all the required things.. I am about to start working on it, but my personal work and college are eating up all my time and i barely get time to sleep.. I need some time to start working on it and if i am right, it shouldn't take much longer to complete the port since its Xperia to Xperia and also same resolution which is a big time saver.. Keep calm guys.. We'll see what we can do..
