Xperia Mini/pro :: When Will The ICS Update Finish
Nov 10, 2012
So I currently have a Mini Pro (SK17i) which does not have the ICS update yet. I am from the UK and have an unlocked, unbranded, sim free phone. The SI is 1251-9101.I just want to know if my phone will be upgraded or not, instead of this waiting game. I was wondering if we are nearing the end of the update and so not to hold my breath.I have many products by them (typing from my Vaio) and am a proud Sony fan, I have had many Sony Ericsson phones in the past but I am really disappointed in Sony with this whole update fiasco. I realise Sony are good and loyal to their customers by upgrading their handsets which is more than some other phone manufacturers do but on the other hand at least with the other manufacturers you know what you get, you know they will not upgrade so you know what you are buying. With Sony, its all a bit grey. I'd rather be told (if this was the case) that I won't be getting the update, at least it will be clear then and I know where I stand. I am seriously considering leaving Sony for another phone manufacturer. I really don't want an unofficial update by XDA or others either and I can't even find another Mini Pro with ICS to buy, otherwise I would (this is how much it means to me).

I was in the process of updating my iphone 4 software to ios 5.0.1 when I got an error message. My phone is stuck on the connect to itunes screen and I can't get it to connect even after I have restarted both phone and computer. What do I do?

iPhone 4, iOS 5.0.1

The other night I scheduled an update on my Bold 9650. I thought my phone was plugged in, but for one reason or another it wasn't when i woke up. As a result, I think my phone died in the middle of the update and is now on a continuous loop. It turns on, and the white screen and tiny clock appear, and it even completes "Patching OS" 100%, but then it goes black, and restarts doing the same thing.

I have a 9800 with Bell Mobility in Canada and while backing up up the phone using the Blackberry Desktop Software I was prompted about an update to the OS, specifically 6.0 Bundle 3049 (from Bundle 2647). I proceeded to do the upgrade and all seemed to be going fine i.e.- Backup (complete)- Install (complete)- Reboot (complete)But the Restore has been in 'progress' for too long now with the green progress bar seeming to be stuck at around 90% to the end but now always showingDatabase: Enhanced Gmail Plug-in (1 of 1 items)(On the grey screen of the phone there only appears the 'icon' for a computer and the phone but no connection between the two)Do I let it continue the night?At what point do I disconnect and then how do I proceed?

I just tried to update my iPhone 4S to the newest version (7.1.2 or .3?) and after my phone restarted it stayed on the loading screen (you know the one, the apple symbol and a loading bar) and it has stayed on the same point in the bar for at least an hour. the update is only 26 mg so it shouldn't have taken this long, and i have no way of making my phone responsive again.

I've been having problems with my phone recently, it doesn't recieve some text messages or show my missed calls. A friend suggested that it may just need updating, which made sense because I'd been getting update notifications, just hadn't got round to hooking my ohone up to my laptop. So I did just that and installed the 'companion' but when I try to update, it's asking me to insert a memory card. I've never taken it out! Not once. So i've turned the phone off and on again, as you do.

I just updated my Xperia Mini Pro, but after the update, a) new text messages appear at the bottom of the list of texts (so annoying!) and b) the newest text message does not appear on the list when I reply to it.Is this a bug? I really don't think it's a feature.

Just wanted to share my experience. I did the update on November 8. I didn't bother to do the backup. The only real important is the contacts and Google have them already. I used the Update Service tool and it worked like a charm. After restarting the phone I had to go through the setup wizard, which by the way is much improved. I now realized that I had lost all my downloaded applications. I downloaded them again from market. Most of them had all the old data, nice. Some games lost all history, no big deal really. My contacts, mail and calendar was downloaded from Google.
I realy like the fact that it is possible to send contacts by SMS. The images from facebook also works very well.
The one thing that I am still not used to is the unlooking. The habbit of pressing the menu button twice is had to kick. I think the new way with the slider is somewhat safer.Now I am waiting 2.2 with tethering. I hope this will be available for X10 mini some time in the future.

Sometimes (most of the times) when I finish talking, the screen remains closed and I cannot close the conversation. I have to press numerous times the off button or to move the phone in the air until the screen lights so I am able to press the red button...

I just upgraded my mini pro to ICS, it works fine in the first few moments until I realized that my phone can't:
1. Show any album art/cover from the music player. I've tried using the Sony Media Go to add the album arts to the file properties, still it didn't work. Only the 'default' songs from the product i.e brett5000: Globalization, missquerada: Far from love, and 2 others, can display their album cover
2. Update songs. Any new songs that I put into my phone through Sony Media Go aren't shown in the music player, only the old ones are present (though I've deleted it). I found the files when I opened it using a file manager program from the Play Store, but when I played it, none of its properties are present except the title of the song itself. It's not even present in the music player

I recently got an Xperia X10 however I'm having trouble setting up my hotmail account on the Email App, it always says 'Setup could not finish, unable to open connection to server'. I've tried setting it up both as a POP3 account and an IMAP (as I'm not sure which to use) but still no luck.

I received a message on my XPeria Mini Pro about the 4.1.B.0.587 Update. In fact, I can not install it. When I start the PC Companion software, it finds the connected Phone. Then I click on update. In the following window I click "Accept" and then the software should prepare the PC for the update. But after one second it stops and returns to Start without any comment. When I start Sony Mobile Update Service then it checks for new updates. As soon as the check is over, the program terminates without any comment. Is there a third way to upgrade?
My config:
PC with AMD, Windows 7 64 Bit, 16GB RAM

When u search for software update in phone it says "you have the latest software and applications from sony ericsson. your phone is up to date." At present my android version is 2.3.4 and build number is 4.0.2.A.0.62. But when you download pc campanion it says "New Phone software version available (4.1.B.0.431)"After carrying out a software upgrade, note that:Android 4.0's hardware requirements are more advanced than previous software updates, so your phone's performance may be affected.Our commitment to offering you the best, means that once upgraded you will not be able to revert back to an older version of Android.To optimize your phone's performance, some applications may have been disabled and will not be visible on your screen. A new installed application called 'Performance Assistant' will help you enable these apps. Please also note that some 3rd party applications may not be compatible with Android 4.0. Please visit Google Play's marketplace to view apps that are compatible with Android 4.0 or contact the 3rd party developers directly for support.Flash support will be disabled, but this can be easily fixed by visiting Google Play's marketplace and downloading the latest available Adobe Flash player application. But when u find SI (Sales Item) released software table the software for xperia mini SI is 1248-9517 is released and available in PC Campanion where it can update for xperaia mini.
Q1] why it is not showing update available when try to update from phone? Is it not fully released/ not compatible/ any bug/error ?
Q2] If i update to Ice Cream Sandwich and if any problem occurs then can i revert back to an old version of android i.e gingerbread.?
