Ginger Btread firmware for Sony Xperia J - Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E

Hi all
Is there any Gingerbread Firmware for Sony Xperia J.. ??
I know its officially not there..

No. There was never GB for J and probably will never be.
Why would you want it when we will maybe get kitkat in the future?

Xperia J won't receive any firmware update anymore.
There will only be unofficial KitKat build then.

JB official update

Will there be any official JB update for sony xperia tipo dual?
If,yes when will it be available?
According to me they won't
I have two reasons
1)they didn't mention tipo in there official JB roll out
2)they have made a new phone called xperia E in the same range with JB out of box so logically a Good and Brained Business Man WON'T MAKE TWO PRODUCTS ALIKE I hope you understand

[DISCUSSION] Android 5.0 for our devices.

Android 5.0 is codenamed key lime pie and would already be running perfectly on a device which has only 512mb of ram, so i wanted to make a thread dedicated to any news about our device and Android 5.0, it should be going live in October. Sony Helpdesk didn't give any information yet about it when i contacted them ;(.
Any rumours, speculations can be posted here.
Do you think it is likely our device's are getting Android 5.0?
I am sure they won't EVER be getting official 5.0. Most likely will get with xda and Cyanogenmod though.

Well most sites say that 5.0 is optimized for low-end devices etc, so it would be sad if we wont get this version

If our device's hardware possible to get KLP, i think it wont due to Japanese market strategy. So, they encourage us to buy newer device. :thumbdown:

Our devices haven't even got 4.2 yet. I think it's too early to expect 5.0 .

Man, tipo can handle ICS ok, Jelly Bean has Project Butter, so it's verry smooth, why Key Lime Pie can't run on our devices?
Well it ain't confirmed that key lime pie would be released. And the news in the web are rumour. So don't post knowing something correctly..
No offence and hard feelings

Whats the benefit on android 5, if you cant even play video properly on custom kernel? Unless devs work on making custom kernel run as smooth as stock sony , fixing gsm / 3g video call, hardware decoding, I think stock is better option for now. No bootloader unlocking for me.

Xperia Tipo/Miro will definitely not be getting official Android 4.1 and beyond.
You guys already reached EOL. (end of life)
Xperia J and E will most likely also end at Android 4.1.

Well I think the Xperia tipo deserves 1 update for a less, we need to create a post and send up to Sony and Qualcomm, to dispel all the answer!! Is hard to see the Sony release device only whit 1 update like Xperia j and nothing like miro, tipo and tipo dual is not fair because we pay for her product they don't give us free

It will never happen. Sony will never ever upgrade Xperia Tipo and Miro to 4.1 and beyond. Xperia Tipo and Miro reached EOL (end of life) and it's Sony's least priority. Only bug fixes from now on. There will not be update to add new Walkman apps etc or upgrade to Android 4.1 and beyond.
Well it is kind of sorrow, when you know that your device is end, and you don't even own him for a year. Since there won't be any further official upgrades it would be nice to unlock our phones and bootloaders with some kind of OTA update only for that.

It's the end for your phone. X10 received it because it was Sony's previous flagship. Xperia Tipo is Sony's lowest, cheapest phone. Let's be realistic, you guys will remain on 4.0 ICS forever.

I highly doubt that any sony device will get JB 4.3, exept Z, Z Ultra and Honami I1. Maybe these phones will be the only phones that will get upgrade for a newer version

have some brains before before posting stuff like this... don't just give false hopes to these people..
our SINGLE cored devices can't even control jellybean 4.2 so what makes you think Sony will directly update to 4.4...please try to understand the fact that to stay updated in the world of Android, you will have to keep on upgrading our devices (budget phones ')
and furthermore, our devices cannot handle the openGL of 4.3.. then how come the OP says there's an update to 4.4
i demand an explanation from the Op. just show me the clause where Sony says that there would be an update to 4.4 or 4.3,..
thank me if I helped you...
thank you

You don't need openGL ES 3 gpu to run KitKat. And our devices can control even 4.3 perfectly, Lg L5 has Snapdragon S1 like our devices and works perfect (but it has ram issues because of 4.3 gapps), and they are porting 4.4 because it requieres less resources.
Sony won't update a older phone than Xperia Z, ZU, ZL, Tablet Z etc... because its market strategy is don't update devices. Even RAM isn't an issue for no update, 4.4 is designed to run perfect with 512mb ram devices.
My Xperia tipo will be the last, and the first sony device I buy.
Sony itself won't give a damn about Tipo and that category models,it's up to the developers to do their tricks and bring us KitKat
Oh Odin why??

Even xperia sp wont get kitkat ,also xperia l wont get atleast 4.3.so its just a middle finger to all the 2013 non high end phones too.

Xperia J/miro/tipo are not in the list of devices with planned update to KitKat.
well sorry if I was wrong about the openGL..
I thought 4.4 too wouldn't work...
To desire nikez have made 4.3 with kernel 2.8. And xperia Miro is better than HTC desire.
He is porting kit kat to it right now and it's not even with kernel 3
So it can not be impossible.
But it's a realy hard job

Also, I think the Question is answered, that these devices will most likely not get updated.
(I personally don't think so, too TBH)

Xperia L have an android 4.4 kit kat, but it's pure, and is part of the AOSP project of sony.
To install you need to unlock the bootloader ( and lose the warranty ).

As of now Sony hasn't said anything. Obviously we all hope we get Kit-Kat. I would expect some news after the Kit-Kat roll out for the Xperia Z series has started (mid-end February).
Any one notice the leaked screenshots of z2

Problem is that our device is mid range,not flagship
Agree!! But point is that our device launched in 2013?
And new xperia E1 going to launch this year with 512 mb ram.
it comes with 4.3 android.

I'm waiting for it, hope give it soon.

We'll definitely not be getting KitKat Android 4.4, chances are dim. However, a 4.3 update is possible (not sure though).
Obviously we all would love to see the latest Android software for our phones, but till now.. *fingers crossed*
KitKat is still very new, most of the flagship devices are just getting it. Obviously midrange devices are less important, so even if we'll get a 4.4 update, it'll be months later from now.
And hopefully we'll get it, even if we have to wait for a while, a lot of other phones with Snapdragon 400 are getting 4.4, I don't think Sony will forget about us.
So,Possibility to get kitkat.

I thought Xperia u would get 4.1 jelly bean but Sony surprised me when they announced that the less powerful Xperia J would get the update insted goes to show anything could happen.
Well, we may or may not get the update..
It's purely in the hands of Sony
If they decide to give, they will.. If not, then they won't..
Fortunately, we are getting CM11 which is based on Android 4.4 and unfortunately its release is delayed week by week..

Its better not to ignite hope and desire in people when you can't fulful your own promises. I still remember 25th dec,2013 as cm11 promised .Just think for a second , only 7 days left to be delayed for 2 months release. And i know that it won't come soon maybe in March but thats not for sure.
And still bluetooth is not fixed
Maybe 4.3 update in March...
