So judging by the latest screenshot by doomlord, the JB update will not be including Superior Auto mode in the Camera

Yeah, I but I'm not sure why. It works perfectly on both the leaked and the V ported camera...
But a Z port should be on the way as soon as we get JB.
Doom said he will come back to S with a kernel that should include all the Z features, so we have the use things like STAMINA, White Balance... i hope he works his way on Light Effects from SP too. I don't think he will do any app porting. That should be the job of the rest of the devs.
1- Will this release work on locked bootloaders? I'm very interested in STAMINA Mode.
I'm just not ready to unlock my bootloader, I have a few months of warranty yet, ,don't want lose Bravia Mobile Engine and I'm kinda noob in Android development, just learned to root and instal cwm a few days ago and flashed the generic .55 ICS FW (my SI only have the .45 ICS FW).
2- What white balance and light effects do?
Is the update ready or are Sony devs optimizing it?
Wow, this is bad... Is there a way to get mobile bravia engine working with unlocked bootloader?

I really hope Stamina Mode is there natively. The update for the Xperia P has it!
Standby time of S is not that good.
No Superior Auto!!? Sony must be ****ting me! Already late update for a former flagship and now they are ripping out features as well! Going great Sony. Going great indeed.
I just wonder what connection BRAVIA Engine have with Bootloader?
Can anyone explain why Bootloader cause this problem?
So wait, XP gets stamina and XS doesn't? I just don't understand anything anymore.

"Well here's the problem with updates.
Last year the JB updates for Xperia S/SL/Acro S/Ion, P/Go, J, T/TL/V/TX were planned for Q4 and then T/TL/V/TX would skip 4.2 and jump straight to 5.0, however this plan was made by SMC Lund. Since then SMC Tokyo who have absolutely zero expertise in this process began meddling in an effort to expand their influence and try and bring software development back "home" to Japan even though they are an unproven team with no experience and SMC Lund is basically the best OEM Android developer.
So Tokyo basically told Lund to prioritise the 4.2.1 update for Xperia Z/ZL over all the others and that they would handle the updates for 2012 Xperia phones except Xperia T/TL which was running on Krait like Z/ZL. So Lund delayed their T/TL 4.1.2 roll out by two months and got to work on the Z 4.2.1 update (now 4.2.2). They finished both projects on time, with T/TL/V getting JB in January and TX in March. The Z/ZL 4.2.2 update is finished and just sitting there doing f**k all right now. The problem is that Tokyo took over development of Xperia S/SL/Acro S/Ion and P/Go. They f**ked up. So Lund have had to step in and fix all of the problems, but head office says all phones must be on 4.1 before they start the 4.2 roll out, basically they are covering their own arses and forcing Lund not to release 4.2.2 earlier than Tokyo could get 4.1.2 out for their devices.
The worst part is that SMC Lund had a plan to get early 2012 devices updated by November and then EOL their support to lessen the 2013 load. With Tokyo's f**k ups now devices from over a year ago are having to be supported as an extra for Lund as well as development of software for upcoming devices (phablet is a big one taken over by Lund as it requires highly custom software for accurate pen input and multi-window apps etc...). This will lead to delays for 5.0 at Sony because Lund don't have the manpower and Tokyo don't have the competence. I know this for a fact because the 5.0 PDK has been delivered already but no devices have been moved over to the 5.0 stream even though Z/ZL were supposed to shift by now and T/TL/V/TX by the end of the month.
Basically the problems are internal company politics and Tokyo thinking they are better than Lund when it is clear that this is not true. It may be one day, but for now and the foreseeable future Lund is going to be the number one developer within Sony and Tokyo need to let them take the software lead and stop meddling. The best think Kaz and Suzuki did for Xperia was keep Lund open as the centre for software development, now they need to back Lund internally."
Felimenta97, The whole time it took you for that long reply, you could have just as easily considered stopping that attitude of yours which is in each and every one of your posts. This is nowadays a tech community, it's pretty normal for people to keep asking the same questions over and over again. If you don't mind, could you please refrain from replying as long as the question bothers you? Might as well let someone else ready to help answer the bothersome question. Don't take this offensively, this is coming from someone who has been reading this forum every day for the last 2 years.

"What I mean to say is that you probably don't work, so you can afford to waste your much less valuable time by finding answers to my questions".Then don't reply and stfu -_-"
Why you reply to say bullsh*t like that ?! I asked kindly because i don't have time to spend on internet because i work, and i am tired when i get home, so can someone please reply me ? Thank you, and sorry if you don't understand my english.
Sorry bro but i do have much faith on doomlord, androxyde, letama because they are the real hardcore developers who develop something from nothing!

But I thing that Sony deliberately omitted certain files required for data (calls, msg or 3g/hdspa).
Everything else works great, GPS, WiFi...
O.K. This isn't daily rom so it needs some cosmetic work to be done but it strange that it's able to "see" network but can't connect.
I'm not dev and that's only my opinion.
You can disable flickering by going to dev.options and check box (enable) "disable HW overlays"
