OTA Rolling Out?

I looked at my brother's phone, the R800AT, and it had the update notification. I clicked it thinking ICS was here for him, and it checked for about ten minutes and said there is no update. Did anyone else get a notification?

There wont be ics ota updates.

Alright, I was just wondering since the notification popped up.

There WILL be. Just not for those with unlocked boot loaders and R800a/at/x users. R800i users must lock the boot loader again before updating.

I think sony specifically said updates will be through pc companion only.

My guess is that they're going to change the partition layout substantially and they can't do that OTA.

I stand by this

That might not have been ICS, possible 2.3.4. I think?

I am pretty sure the r800at still doesn't have 2.3.4 sadly.

The notification came up again, and did the same thing. I'm really wondering what this is.

[Q] WiFi hotspot att blocked any solutions?

I had a Samsung captivate before rooted and running cyanogen. I made proper use of the hotspot feature. The ion now has it stock but has to be unlocked by att calling 611. I'm not going to pay $60/m for a low tethering plan and lose my grandfathered unlimited plan.
Does anyone know of a workaround or is this going to be a root required thing?

There might be some apps that you can use without rooting to tether like pdanet (haven't tried myself) but to use the built in feature will require rooting and some system changes.

I thought that might be the case. If I can dig up some modem drivers I should be able to do a dial up connection through Windows.

Wow AT & T really are rubbish. I really annoys me when operators neuter the phone to make a quick pound....

If we can get the LT28i firmware we should be able to use it on our ions and it will allow the built in tethering though it might require changes to the APN. I'm trying to get that firmware from international users.

I have already provided a copy. It is in a thread in QA section of xperia S (back in the day when there was no ion forum) called xperia ion development status

With regards to what? We can flash the rogers or generic firmware just fine on our AT&T ions. The generic will allow us to use tethering without issue. Not sure on the rogers one.
Waiting for ICS so we can try some if the tricks the xperia s is using to root with a locked bootloader. Still no dice on creating a prerooted system image. But again that only works with an unlocked bootloader.

ICS available?!?!

So I called Sony about the issues I've been having with my phone and the woman I spoke to said the Ion had a 4.0 update and to check the SUS. My computer can't run the program correctly so I can't confirm but I thought I'd let you guys know since it came from Sony themselves.

Not sure what you are talking about. Why would dev stop? We have root in ics. What do you mean?

The reason this thread isn't full up of roms and deveolpers and topics is two reasons.
1) the phone is pretty new and it's a Sony and from the few devs. I've read about they don't like Sony lol.
2) the bootloader is locked, what that means is ( person with knowledge insert brain mater here) and so most of the things you see on other phones like the Samsung gs2 which has so many roms you won't really see here until the bootloader is unlocked and full access to the phone is avalible.
Is all this information right? I think so its what I've gathered from xda in the threads. This is my second Android phone I just traded my i777 in so I'm not use to each phone being different. I had iPhones before these two and each phones steps to flash a custom iOS was the same basically. So this bootloader stuff and it being really hard to unlock is new to me. So don't take what I've said as the facts. Its just what reading and little knowladge of Android got me.

There are a lot of great dev groups already working on Xperia phones in general.
CM, AOKP will be branched for ion. Sources are only a few weeks old.
Watch the Xperia S, the ION &S are same but screen size.
Patients is a virtue
I have tried to compile stock kernel myself but there are 'BUGs ' in the sources from Sony. Have to work it through

Hehe it's not written in Chinese.

I think the major difference is preloaded software

Yeah, and using the US (att) version will probably mean the lose of tethering. Not a big deal probably for some, I never use it BUT I want the option to not use it, lol.
Once .233 is flashed and set, you'll never know if was Chinese firmware.

Successfully deodexed the LT28h Ics Rom.
Uploding it. Will be useful for creating mods and custom roms.
It is cwm flashable.

Probably no LTE, but where I am I get faster speeds through WIFI. Which sucks since I have unlimited data and not enough speed to enjoy it.
Sent from my LT28at using xda app-developers app

You should be able to flash the I or AT radios with out a issue. We initially flashed the AT GB radio to the H ICS so I would think it still works.

WiFi is always faster than LTE right now. I mean 802.11n does around 150mbps, and if you have cable that's probably more than 50mbps.. 1 gbps if you're on fiber . Anyway, I don't think ever goes over 30mbps at the moment, so it makes sense that WiFi is faster.

Doesn't say anything about a delay just that the ion FW is to follow the S and those other devices which was always the case.

Yea the Ion is not delayed but more seems like they are waiting as to not overload the servers. The S and SL are older and I would think allot more where sold than the Ion so makes sense to roll it first. I would expect to see the Ion update go live on Monday but hey maybe sooner who knows. But we do know its finally happening so yeah for that.
