Try the 6.1 branch. Seriously. They fixed most of the bugs reported here.

In the end what would you suggest? As far as I know the latest 6.1.A.1 is the 6.1.A.1.58 Generic TR (Turkey).
Yes this one,i use it for a day and has some bug fixed and improvement.

Just a question, why is it that the latest release to come out that as of us ( UK/Europe) goes out to somewhere like turkey. First?
Dont mean any offence to anyone but just wondered why and not a generic European release.

i didn't see any improvements in speed. apps still need seconds and seconds to load up. ill stay with CM9/CM10 till sony releases a proper firmware or jellybean. can't be bothered with their bad software anymore.
Quick question for you guys.
I have a locked BL and I had to use the "Downgrade to GB, root and upgrade" method to get my phone rooted. Is there any way I can apply this update with Flashtools and keep the root but gain the benefits of this Firmware completely without sacrificing anything?
Your help is appreciated.

Ah man, got to go through the whole process again and probably repeat when JB arrives
Anyway I could skip going back down to GB and proceed from ICS onwards and maintain Root, or is that just not possible?
I tried .58 and Mobile Bravia Engine doesn't work for me.
At first, I was using 2.3.7 then I upgraded the phone to .452 using Update Service, but Mobile Bravia Engine was still working.
After I flashed another region of .452, Mobile Bravia Engine never worked. Even for .453, .58.
Only 2.3.7 works.
I have two Xperia S and I'm experiencing the same problem on both Xperia S.

Looks like they just certified a new '6.1.A.2' firmware

Looks like I'll stick with GB a little longer and wait for the bugs to be ironed out.
I think in general, people do want to update to ICS (for all sorts of reasons). It's the instability and bugs that they don't like. (you will know what I mean if you have owned a LG Optimus 3D)
exactly.
@ K900
did u try turn it on/off to see if it has any effect?
im pretty sure its not working from what i have seen on GB!
Just out of curiosity, what exactly does it do? as i tried it both on and off in GB and ICS and cant really say i noticed any difference.
this should work.. at least nobody complaining about loosing root on the thread..
