Is there a way to do this if my phone is locked? i remember trying to route mine some time ago something was locked preventing it.

Have a look here from the " all things root" thread

Sony Poland say update coming in next few days on their facebook page.

Not exactly a great source but it is hope.

Also PC Companion cant connect to Sony servers today - perhaps they are preparing the update?!?!?!!?!????

AAAAAAAhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh


Now they say it will be May - Sony Xperia S To Get Jelly Bean In May Instead | Ubergizmo

I am getting very tempted to just update the phone myself....

Honestly, the manual update is nice, but once the official update comes out, I'll be flashing that.

Mainly because of the camera.

This is the Xperis S, not the Acro S. You're best asking in the correct forum.

On a quick Google search, it looks like the Acro S will get JB.
but,
I have no idea when.

so....... there is any news about the update?
and i mean to the JIB
the next one will be 4.3

 

[Fishyweb]

The smart money is on a end-of-May update from Sony. I think this will be to 4.1.

 

[electro machin]

what about version 4.2?

If any of you have a unlocked boot loader, you can flash the leak of the jelly bean update that I've posted in the root forum.

any news about JIB update?! :S

It was released this morning.

For those using carrier subsidised handsets you can expect to wait up to 6 weeks for your update.

Three UK should be mid-July according to Xperiablog.

My phone has been freezing an awful lot lately and I'm hoping the update will fix that problem

My wifes phone has been freezing a lot as well. She isn't normally one to complain, but she is now.
Will be interesting to see if this solves the problem, as i was going to do a factory reset.

Installed JB last night. I too have been having freezing problems a lot lately so hope this update will fix them.

One major gripe I've got about the update is that it automatically installed Chrome. Now I haven't got a problem with Chrome as it's quite a good browser. However, the app takes up nearly 60Mb of space in the phone memory and can't be moved to the internal storage. This reduced the amount of free space I had on my phone memory which, in turn, affects performance. I've since got rid of a load of apps I no longer use and am back to just over 1Gb of free space in the phone memory.

Apart from that, I'm liking JB at the moment. I didn't do a clean install, but the phone seems to be running smoothly. If I notice any issues over the coming days I might do a factory reset to clear everything out and start again.

 

[STdemoniac]

I uninstal all google chrome updates , and then in app setings disable chrome and other app like facebook and twiter

 

[Fishyweb]

I've not been so happy with my phone lately. However, having been running the JB update for a couple of days now, it has made me feel happy with my SXS again. Can't put my finger on exactly what has swung me back around to the phone - maybe it's the smoother performance, or better notifications, or something else. But it just feels like a new, better phone now. Well done, Sony! (You won't catch me saying that very often!).
