ICS experience with neo v

neo_v3x — Wed, 30 May 2012 14:53:34 GMT

hi every one .. I updated my brother phone to ics from 2 weeks ago ... and since then the phone got so laggy and slow the phone got 5-6 sec to open and it restart on its own alot

so I did a master rest and deleted everything on the phone or sd card .. the phone got better and faster .. but again it did restart on its own even without doing heavy function on it

so I moved on and did a software repair from the pc companion .. but still the phone restart and just freeze on its own

I took the phone to the sony service center here and they was like "oh ics ,,, everyone come here to downgrade there phones to 2.3" so didn't speak much cuz he already know that the phone freezes and restart

yesterday I got my brother phone back and it's now on 2,3 and it's just fine

so I now wonder "" cuz I have xperia neo "" is this how ics on all devices ??? and would it be the same for my phone if i installed it cuz I know it's coming to neo and arc soon ????

and if ics do that in all devices .. wont there be and update or fix for that ? cuz using phone like this is impossible

thank u all in advace

I have ICS on my neo v too,but it's not laggy as you say.
ok,the only problem I've seen is that the phone app , (the one that you use to make a call) takes 2-3 seconds to open.
I have no random freezes,shutdowns,restarts etc.

As an overall experience it's fine.

Optionally, You can wait for ICS 4.0.4 update which just started rolling out...

ICS 4.0.4 update is the improvement update for 4.0.3 which a release a month ago.

Is your SI number listed for the update???? If yes, did you got update notification on your phone.

I am asking this because 4.0.4 update is coming OTA (Over the Air). And its 20 MB only.

I updated my Neo V to ICS just today, and I am loving it. I am extremely happy that I upgraded to ICS 4.0.4 from Ginger Bread. I was a bit weary initially after hearing all the issues that people were experiencing esp. WiFi, Lagginess and Battery drain. But now Wifi is faster, and i don't find any sluggishness and everything is fast as a bunny. At least the Xperia users in India (like me) are absolutely satisfied with the upgrade as I heard that Sony provides International firmware in India and Nordic. THANKS SONY , keep it up.
