Its feels faster then I thought it would be.
The only disappointing thing is that I thought I would be able to disable apps. I know Sony said they made an app for that but in mine its empty. Can't disable anything to get better performance.

Got rooted phone with stock ROM, waiting for official update for my SI. Anyone who already got it - please tell us if there are any issues with 4.0.4 on mk16i? For some phones of another model they've got Wi-Fi not working, so issue like that will make me to wait till fix before upgrading.
In other words, is anyone upgraded already is thinking of switching back?

BTW, anfish screenshot:

It's smoother than 4.0.3 on my arc S and games are running better for me. Temple Run no longer lags or stutters for example.

is that 4.0.3 or 4.0.4? as I knew there where problems with .3 but I thought it was solved with .4

The dialer and the messaging app is still slow the first time you launch it after every system reboot.. But after the first launch.. It becomes faster.. But of course thats pretty annoying..

Well.. The wifi for me seems to be working flawlessly.. So it could just be some specific SI models.. I am very satisfied with the ICS update..

Wait.. What?.. Correct me if im wrong but i dont think you can change the SI..

your right.. Temple Run seems to be running even better on the ICS update compared to the previous GB.. even other games are functioning quite well..
even other GooglePlay apps are running buttery smooth.. even the transitional effects are amazing.. :D

My Love SEX-Pro

I'm a student and it's hard to buy an expensive phone
Pro was my chosen one after consider a lot of phone. It's hardware is not so strong, but it has an unreplaceable QWERTY keyboard. I think, if there is a stronger QWERTY phone, i will choose it, but right now? SEX-Pro is the best!

About IceCreamSachwich, first time i found it slow, after root the Pro (and doing nothing), it's fast like GB!
By the way, it takes me almost one day to restore my data:confused:

What's about restoring the data after update? I've got sms and contacts backed up, and apps backed up with some app from SE support forum. Which data I'll lose after upgrade?
BTW, you able to change your SI, google it.

i flashed the ics 4.0.4 and compare it with riyals last gb, if done some mods on gb rom and for me gb is smoother and fast as ics.
on ics the camera is a bit better.

by the way both overclocked to 1,2 ghz the benchmarktest said both have the same speed as finalpoints but where they get the points, is different.

so for gamer ics is the better choice

You need to modify keyprint.xml which is located in /system/usr/keyboard-config

Replace the latin layout with your language, you can see what's available in layouts-folder.

I made small CWM-flashable file which does the change for finnish keyboard, it shouldn't be too hard to make similar for each keyboard layout.. There are also device id-lines in build.prop but changing those didn't fix my problem with smartkeyboard pro.

I also failed to convince pc companion to flash my phone with "real" finnish firmware, at least with gingerbread smart keyboard worked OK with it.

    Hello there,

    I'm noticing that the LED colors in ICS update are not working as expected. :(
    It was working in GB.

    I installed Light Flow applciation and defined the colors. Still, it blinks as it's will. :mad:

    Any solution to that?
    Maybe this

    Hey I love my Xperia Pro too.
    Last night I unlocked my bootloader and flashed CM9 ROM and luckily I got my phone working since it was my first time flashing a CUSTOM ROM.
    This is the best ROM so far. So smooth and super fast. Hats off to the Dev Team.
    I checked my CWM Recovery version which is 6.0.8.0. I tried to backup my ROM completely using CWM when i got an error. I restarted my phone and was shocked to see all my Data from SDCARD was erased. It was so weird. Some how i managed to get my data by recovery software. I am unable to make an image of my ROM.

    Can anyone tell me what was the problem?
    How to solve it?

    I tried to do it again but same results. Can anyone help?
    This is unfortunately a bug in CWM 6.0.8.0 which has subsequently been fixed in CWM 6.0.9.0. Let's hope that FXP includes the fixed version in the next build.
