Which to get? Xperia TX LT29i (Bond phone) or Ion LT28h? - Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion

Both phones have great specs and are within $100 of each other. Found some on Ebay and other online retailers for decent orices new. What would you current owners of either handset recommend? When I get one of these the first thing I'm going to do is root and probably just enjoy the phone as is (let's see how long that lasts). I really want the new Z in white but can't wait around and need a phone by next week.
From what I could gather
LT29i

Comes in white, black and another color
Removable battery
Better battery
Better processor
Screen seems shorter from all the review videos I've seen online.
No capacitive buttons and uses the on screen ones which take up screen space
LT28h
Only comes in black and red (shame no white)
Taller viewing screen
Capacitive buttons (I like this)
Very similar to the LT29i performance
I'm probably missing something but that's why I'm asking real world users for their opinions. Thanks!!

Obviously Xperia TX because it's a newer device and will be supported by Sony further and ion's support will end soon.

OK I broke down and ordered a phone The Sony LT29i Xperia TX (Unlocked) (White) SNYLT29IUW $438.50 + Free shipping
Now to brush up on learning how to root this phone :silly:

Good luck with it Have fun

Sv: Which to get? Xperia TX LT29i (Bond phone) or Ion LT28h?
You should wait for the xperia z is my opinion, but choosing ion is more budgetfriendly, almost same performance but a matter of design would make me choose ion anyway since that is a top priority for me, but the capacitive buttons isn't the best on either ion or s

i would go for xperia tx because it has s4 instead of s3
and it's JB update is faster than ion

You definitely made the right choice IMO. The S4 devices that I have used (One X, 8x and Atrix HD) have run rings around the Ion that I'm currently using as far as responsiveness goes. UI lag should be minimal. I actually prefer Sony's Android interface to HTC's or Motorola's, that I have used. The Bond phone should serve you well.

Yeah I was truly on the fence. Honestly I hated mostly the fact it only came in black. I told myself the next phone I got no matter which one, it would have to be in white. That and the LT29i was about $100+ but I'm going off contract once my T-Mobile is done in June. Probably with AT&T's Straight Talk as they have the best coverage where I now located.

How did you root it man mine has the 7.0.A.3.197 fw and i still can´t rootit let me here the link where you found the tools please

I actually stumbled across a posting from someone across the pond who rooted the most recent firmware. I personally didn't follow the all in one thread because it was way to confusing for me, so I just started experimenting on my own and it worked. My boot loader is unlocked by the way.
I will locate the post I used and link you later.

After I unlocked the LT's bootloader through Sony I flashed the TX kernel in the thead below and after that I was rooted. Note my phone came from factory with 7.0.A.3.212. Hope that helps.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1922925

I have that version now but it´s bootloader is still locked and i don´t want to unlock it i think i´ll wait for JB update to try it but thanks anyway

-= Nexus S 4G Xperia Port =-​
I'm finally moving to the E4GT, so my help on this will be minimal. I ported this from the gsm Nexus Timescape rom (deleted from forum, forgot who op was) about a week ago. I do not remember the bugs. When I flashed, most things were working, including network and data.
Saying this, let me know what is wrong and I will try to help. I am lazy and reset my nexus s 4g earlier today so I do not want to flash this and create a list.

yeah i ported this just for kicks, and when i saw how ugly it actually was, i didnt know if it was just a messed up leak or if thats how sony ericson designs stuff..
and yeah data and stuff isnt working right now, this is an ics port from i think a global phone.. and im just starting to dig around in ics framework, its a little different, so give me some time and i will have some stuff figured out

I don't know anything about the port process but would it be easier to port an Xperia rom like the Play CDMA ver? Since I don't believe there's a CDMA ver of Arc? I don't honestly know if that matters.

What's so special about an AT&T Ion

I have an Ion but am based in HK. So what is so special about AT&T that gives it forum naming rights? Is it cos the phone is only available in the us on at&t? Is the phone itself different'?
Sent from my LT28i using XDA
I just think it's anticipated that many future users of the handset will be from the states and, by default, on the at&t version. I'm not sure if there is a discernable difference (the radio bands, maybe?).
Sent from my LT28at using xda premium
I'm assuming if the other versions prove popular they will rename it.
I remember with the X10 they had so many different versions of the phone
Also the US version is 4G capable.

AT&T ruins xperia ion's original user experience.
att xperia ion doesn't have the cosmic flow live wallpapers, no timescape feed widget, no music & video app/widget, no recommender app/widget, no setup guide app. Also, the contacts app is like the old 2011 line phones which don't have contact suggestions while you input the numbers. The timescape widgets only have timescape frineds, timescape share, and wtf the 2011 timescape widget but not the timescape feeds which looks like the one on xperia s.
oh btw, there is a **** load of att's ****ty apps pre-installed so definitely have fun with those

Difference from Xperia S

It's amazing how this phone has the same specs hardware wise (CPU, GPU, ram) as the Xperia S but to me the experience is sooo much better on the ion. The screen is loads better on the ion. Blacks are deeper and colors are more vibrant. The speed and smoothness of the phone is also better on the ion.
Even the camera, which from I have seen specs wise should be the same, is by far and away much better than my Xperia S. Focuses a lot quicker just feels like it responds better.
Anyone else had experience with both these phones and notice the same? Not sure if they polished the android 2.3.7 more on the ion or what but it definitely feels smoother.

what about HDMI output in the Ion ? I saw some reports of lag video and lower performance on the S when using HDMI output.
what about HDMI output and Ion performance ? any change? is that smooth?
I was about to buy the S early this month and decided to hold a while to look for the ion. still not sure, but seems the ion should be better somehow...
just wondering now if should go with the international version or get an AT&T and unlock it...

Been using an unlocked Xperia S for a while and other androids (Dell Streak Motorola Atrix, Xperia Play 4G) before that and tethered them. You need to use the right apns and have a non AT&T rom. Never gotten the message from them and I still have my unlimited plan.

I can say that the game doesn't works good on my Xperia S. While I'm driving ,it freezes and need to do hard reset.
Played almost 10 minutes without driving in a car/bike and the games ran well ,but when you drive phone freezes.
Wait !! What y'all talking about ??
The company has admitted that there are flaws in the game(Android Version) and they will again release the game by the end of this week or next week..
So dont blame the phone ..

You're either non English forum members or idiots
but to clarify the Xperia S is in the list of campatible devices but for some reason is blocking by region
They'll make it compatible when they'll get rid of freeze bug.

Tell me complete info of software on ur phone (stock? custom rom? Cyanogenmod?)
Are you on 1.0.2 version of the game?
I am on 1.0.2 and it still freezes on my Acro S when driving a car
The problem is our ROM. Try a custom JB rom and it works fine!
Hit THANKS if my post helps you!
I got a *ahem* slightly legal version to try it out, and as other Xperia S users have mentioned it plays fine until you get in a fast car at which point the phone completely freezes and you have to do a hard reset. This is maybe why it currently isn't available for our phone?

[DISCUSSION] No any CM10.1 or higher for ion?

As I know that the fw of ion will stop at 6.2.B.0.211.There are some bugs in this fw.At the time only semc team make a test rom but there is a problem of the baseband.I have tested and found some issue of the kernel.The semc gave up to fix the bugs?
Look like ion development nearly goes to the end..Now I'm start thinking to move another device next time..Any suggestion what model should I take?..

If you have nothing useful to add about his question, simply don't post. Other phones brand have their problems and so does Sony.
I believe Sony will release a new update for Xperia Ion soon. Traditionally, Xperia Ion gets the update several weeks after Xperia S.

Nope.The department of ion is disbanded.6.2.B.1.96 of XS is the last updata.
I'm not care about the stock rom.I want to make some roms base on cm,like miui and Smartisan OS.But no cm I can not do it.

No need to panic man, the update has only been released two days. There's no source saying the update isn't coming, and so far the Ion has always received the update a bit after the rest. So keep the rant for when you're sure nothing's coming.
