The Walkman on JB for the Xperia T is almost exactly the same as it was on ICS. The only difference I see is a bit more audio quality options. You can get the same app on your Xperia S by installing XTXperience 7 or one of the later KA roms. There's also a flammable zip of it somewhere on the General Android apps section here on XDA.

I'm not willing to root. Already got the new purple walkman working on Xperia s without root. But can't get the new sound enhancements like clearaudio+, clear phase etc.

Not yet. I bet Cyanogen will be the first 4.3 Rom for ZL. Just wait a few days after the sources are available.

Aosp has already been updated to 4.3 for the zl. Build was released but had some major issues, kernel was not updated tho, this will probably fix these issues. So probably in the next few days. Again, aosp.

AOSP is only 1 updated but has issues. CM can't be compiled right now. Errors for some import file missing. BTW guys we are working on 4.3 PAC ROM. Any new ROMs u like to see, pm me and I will do my best to port it to zl . let's make zl have more development than z

It's not important to have more development, but maybe instead we get BETTER development.
It's a pity that I don't understand anything about github, compiling and so on. I'd like to give something back to this community, but I can't...

New Xperia S update coming in the form of 6.2.B.1.XX

Good news
Back in June, we reported of a new Sony Xperia S (LT26i) firmware update that was rumoured to arrive in early July. Well obviously that did not come to pass, but apparently a new update is still on the agenda for Xperia S/SL owners. Sony pretty much confirmed as much on the official support forums, saying that it will have build version number 6.2.B.1.XX. There’s no ETA for the update, but we’ll keep our eyes peeled.

Don't thank me. It's because of amount of death threats I sent to their dev department and sophisticated insults to their support policy I posted on their facebook page.

Sure they will...most of Xperia S users only think that Sony will only fix the problems in their phone (Xperia S) only because they (Sony) did reply and respond inside SXS forum...talk about typical Xperia S user that think of their own importance and forget about the others (Xperia SL,Acro S and ion)...
Sorry if my message is kind of a little rage message...I'm quite mad because some SXS user only think about only their phone's problem will be fixed

We'll see
This update will well be the last update we are gonna be receiving.. Since Qualcomm have stopped work for S3 chipset devices.. We won't be getting official 4.2.2.. Same case like HTC One S.. Sad that Qualcomm too rejecting the good handsets.. Damn these companies..!!!!

You have to think about something. If Xperia S won't get updated, what are the chances to update Acro S, sl or ion? Zero.

Nothing stop you to use custom Rom or aosp kernel with stock Rom, maybe XSp Rom( like ported HTC Rom)

Thanks for understanding.
And yes, this is keeping me away from flashing PROPER Custom ROMs, which means that some people (incl. me) will have to stick to 4.1.2 forever...

I actually prefer 4.1 ROMs on xs coz they're much more stable compared to 4.2. I have had battery issues with 4.2 ROMs on xs. Hope Sony release a faster, more stable and more efficient 4.1 rather than 4.2. Lets not forget xs runs on over 2 year old cpu.
[OT]My Wildfire S runs with CM10.1 nearly better than with Stock 2.3.5. But let's not forget it has a CPU that was already 2-3 years old when it was released (ARMv6 generation). [/OT]
Just saying...

But bro, if they give an update to 4.2.2, custom roms will obviously come good.. Atleast if they release sources, that would help devs to build a stable one soon.. But they don't.. And obviously i would choose custom rom over stock anytime.. And what XSP ROM(ported HTC) are u talkin bout bro??

Best 4.2+ rom

Hey everyone
I was searching fo a stable 4.2+ aosp jb rom for my xperia s but in every thread I find bugs and that its not stable
So please guys share your opinions and help me to find a stable rom with a working camera and to be my daily driver
I like PAC the most
Thnx in advance
Sent from my LT26i using Tapatalk
Tried the most, but all 4.2 aren't bugfree enough for my liking.
I guess 4.2 roms will get better if Sony release 4.2.
any of letamas works are usualy the best

[q] android m for xperia s

I am curios to know wheather XPERIA S Lt26i is capable to run ANDROID M?

R U trolling?
Before asking about M port, lets hope for a rc or stable version of L, and some other ports like PAC or carbon or AOKP or vanir or omni or ... , any is good
Plus M is still in dev preview
It would be nice to have it, but still early to say

I'm not, he said if Xperia s is capable of android m, and you can Google it, Sony did announce what I said in my post, though it will obviously not be updated officially by Sony when android m finally arrives

The xda portal has quotes Xperia S by mistake. There is no developer preview of M by Sony for Xperia S, it is just that the page has link to older binaries(Jelly Bean I think) which caused the confusion.

We might get the android M, developer mickybart is looking through it. Although expecting anything now is very early, as these are just developer builds.
I read on the news on xda that xperia s is one of the listed devices
Will that mean it maybe has a chance to get an official updat?
