[Q] No love for Neo? - Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Why is there no separate forum for the Xperia Neo?
The news about SE unlocking the Xperia bootloader is great, and I'm eagerly awaiting the launch of the Xperia Neo here. However, I'm surprised at the absence of a forum for the Neo.
Is there any reason for that? And how easy would it be to port a custom ROM, originally written for the Arc, to the Neo? (Seeing that the Arc would be a much more popular device with people).

I think it'd be better if we got a forum for the Arc and Neo together. The only hardware difference is the display (which shouldn't matter for development etc) and the front-facing camera anyway...

Yeah I'd like a forum for Neo as well... Though, software wise the Arc and Neo are pretty much the same, but I gotta say I like the Neo more because of its smaller size and it fits better in the palm of your hand.
Wouldn't trade my Neo for an Arc... =)

I might be wrong here guys and girl's but hasn't the Neo been pushed back till closer to June?
As with the whole having to source an entire new manufacturing facility things are running tight.

Yep, June now.
Even SE don't have any Neos to hand, let alone enough to start selling them.

thats so sad...
i really wanted a neo, but now im thinking of desire s maybe.. tho the camera sucks on it.. and the bootloader is locked, so far.
dunno what to do

please i beg u guys if u could make a seperate forum for sony ericsson xperia neo

Can you use the Arc ROM on the Neo without having problems?

The original one not.
It has to be ported to the Neo.

Yes its compatible with Arc S and should be working with other phones aswell.
Yes, I'm using it as such. I also tried it with numerous other SE phones, never had any issue.
^Thanks for quick response. I'm planning to buy one and made a research on it. Phonearena said that I should check the compatibility first before buying one because other phones might not work with it.

[Q] Xperia Arc S still in production?

Anyone know? Or is the stock in the stores & warehouses all there is of this phone forever?
Yep all new devices are being made, if shops are selling it is only old stock.
New phones like the s,p,u are just coming out so why make old phone.

I dont think so..Sony manufactures a model atleast for a year from the month of launch.
i dont know whether "Sony" and "Sony Ericsson" will cause a problem..
but normally they dont stop production atleast for a year.they may reduce the number of output.
BTW Wrong section...Question goes to Q&A Section and NOT in General Section
i bay it for 220euros 1 month ago

I got it from newegg a month ago. They are selling it for $300, which i think is an awesome deal for this phone!

Stopped?
I have contacted the biggest electronics shop today and they don't sell the Xperia Arc S anymore because they're out of stock. The informant also told me that Sony Ericsson stopped producing these phones because Sony bought Sony Ericsson. The best way to still get this phone is to search online on the internet. There are still enough people who have a new Xperia Arc S.

[Q] New phone to buy?

So I've got the chance to sell my Play and to buy a new phone, is it worth?
I can only buy phones up to 300€, I'm thinking about an Arc S but then going from outdated to outdated isn't that good plus I can't use touchscreen gaming controls... There's also Nexus S has an option but I think the Arc S camera and design is the most appealing thing for me. What do you think?
Galaxy Nexus?

That's the one I'd like most but it costs way more and I'm really on low budget
Edit: that isn't too expensive, can I really trust it? You're keeping your Play right? We need your awesome developments in here!

Yeah I'll never sell my play, I ordered a Akai turntable from there, arrived home 2 days after!
If the Xplay hadn't existed, or I had enough moneyto have two phones, I'd buy a Galaxy Nexus, especially because it's the lastest official phone from Google and it's the first one to get Jelly Bean, the best mobile os ever.
If you are really poor, just consider buying a Huawei one, I've heard they are cheap.

I'm not "really poor" and I'm happy with XPlay but I wanted a phone with more updated software and specs and since I bought Play this year it's hard for me to buy another phone.
