Why does sony neglect updates for the uk?

I dont get what the issue is with agianst releasing updates for the uk. my xperia active, never got the ics update, despite it being released to the rest of the world 6 weeks ago!
now the go I have is not getting any updates, despite major bugs in the firmware, while the rest of the world have recieved these updates. ontop of this, the uk is one pf the biggest consumers of their ptoducts.
there is no issue with them as they are both unlocked(active went back due to issues).
not sure why I went with the go now after my horrific experience with the active.
if this is not sorted, my loyalty will be no more. I have 3 sony bravias in my house, a tablet s, a vaio, all the games consoles and have been 5 different sonys since the t610.
no wonder sony has been 6 years in the red, what is the point of buying sony, without their support? I may as well buy an lg.
you better sort this out!

Are you locked to a network ? The network provider have their rights to reject it . If you are not, you will wait, they will release it to you later. At last, most likely you will get an update.
But, if you must have it now, you might do manual update, which requires rooting. Search in the forum and you'll find it

  • Why are there no updates for the 800w

    I know there were 2 patches early on. The voice command works about 80% of the time, so I guess that's better than nothing; I can't see any improvement in the usb charging / recognition behavior; or let's just say it's still extremely poor.
    I look at the Blackberry Bold forum and see that there are updates for that already; in fact it looks almost continuous. That is, there are signs of activity from BB and none from Palm.
    Post relates to: Treo 800w (Sprint)

    What I was kinda hoping for with this new upgrade was a news column in the ministore...I think most fans now realize that it's the studios fault (thanks to Debbstar and others). What people don't know (me included) is WHY??? We want to know what's going on insead of speculating. Is there a contract legal issue regarding schedule changes at Sci Fi? Does this have something to do with the syndications coming out? Or maybe something to do with SG1's cancelation?? Fans hate being left in the dark more than they hate not being able to download their shows...well, almost as much anyway Jesus, I am a geek now. I'm complaining about a science fiction show. Lets all go picket!!

  • Why does it take days for the mountain lion to download. it seems stuck and wont continue

    why does it seem mountain lion download is stuck and not downloading. it takes sooooo long

    Like macjack mentioned, restart your Mac and the download should pick up where it left off. If not, go back into the App Store and click the Download button and watch for it to start. Another user was having this issue and after a restart, he had to click download again to 'jump start' it. Then he was able to see a progress bar.

  • Why does multiple handles created for the file File (RW-) C:\Windows\winsxs\x86_microsoft.vc80.crt_1fc8b3b9a1e18e3b_8.0.50727.4940_none_d08cc06a442b34fc

    I am analysing the file handles created by my desktop application and when i generate a report using handle.exe, in report i could see multiple file handles created for 
    1) File  (RW-)   C:\Windows\winsxs\x86_microsoft.vc80.crt_1fc8b3b9a1e18e3b_8.0.50727.4940_none_d08cc06a442b34fc
    2) File  (RW-)   C:\Windows\winsxs\x86_microsoft.windows.common-controls_6595b64144ccf1df_6.0.7601.17514_none_41e6975e2bd6f2b2
    I could see around 80 entries of file1 and around 5-10
     file 2 .
    What my understanding about the WinSxS, should load the dll only once and should keep referencing the same dll. But what my results out from handle.exe contains multiple file handles created. Is there a glitch in system or is it expected behavior? If there
    is a problem how to fix it?
    My system configuration is as follows
     OS windows7 enterprise edition , service pack1..
    64 bit os,  intel core i7 processor
    .net framework 4.5
    Thanks

  • Why does FaceTime keep asking for the password for my email account?

    Is it secure to provide the password for my email address to FaceTime?

    Usually when that happens it is a problem on the mail provider's end.
    In time they will catch it and it will end. Until then, there's nothing you can do on your end.

  • Why does 'User not registered for online use' show up when I try to import a cd into itunes. None of the cd info shows up either

    Why does 'User not registered for online use' show up when I try to import a cd into itunes? None of the cd info shows up either.

    Well, the format I upload from the camera is "video clip" or "video for Windows"...sometimes I've converted them to avi format, too. But as I said, it never even lets me get that far...I never get to even select a clip. As soon as I tell the program to "import/clip" it freezes up before I can even go to the folder that the clips are in. It has only begun to do this recently, and I'd never had any problems like this before. Last night I tried it again, and I clicked "open composition", and it froze when I did that too.
    I'm not sure how much more specific I can be about the details of the clips, since I'm positive it has nothing to do with the clips themselves...I'm running Windows XP, though...Home Edition Service Pack 2, Pentium 4 CPU 2.80GHz, with 504 MB of RAM. I have had the automatic updates turned on since I did my last reformat a couple of weeks ago. Could it have something to do with some kind of an update it may have done?

  • Why is there no updates to the firefox throttle add-ons ? Is there an alternative? throttle is Bandwidth utilization throttling and monitoring extension for Firefox

    Why is there no updates to the firefox throttle add-ons ? Is there an alternative? throttle is Bandwidth utilization throttling and monitoring extension for Firefox

    Well, it's probably one of two things: either the awesome dude(tte) who developed this awesome extension was tired of updating or the changes in FFox software architecture carried out between version 3.x and 4+ created challenges that were too difficult for him to surmount or a combination of both. Honestly, I love Mozilla but I think they dropped the ball on the throttle issue. It's such an obvious and necessary function and it's so easy to implement. They should have included it a long time ago as in built feature. And, if you are browsing and looking at this post and you agree. Add a suggestion in mozilla.org. The more of us asking for this function, the better.
    Meanwhile, I have the following solution for you:
    Solution 0.6.9.23.11 (DIY Version of my Solution ):
    Setting Up a Separate Portable Firefox 3.6.x that runs independently of and simultaneously to your latest version of Firefox
    Get FireFox Portable 3.6.24:
    http://portableapps.com/apps/internet/firefox_portable/localization#legacy36
    It's a portable app, meaning that it's got all it's profiles and preference and application files in the same directory. It won't compete with your current installation of Firefox, has it's own separate extension folder etc...
    Get Firefox Throttle 1.1.6
    http://firefox-throttle.en.softonic.com/ (I couldn't find it in the official mozilla site)
    It will be flagged as incompatible with even that old version of firefox (but it isn't). You just need to turn off compatibility checking. You can do that with this extension:
    https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/add-on-compatibility-reporter/?src=search
    If you have Bookmarks you want to port to the portable (bad pun intend), backup them up to bookmarks.json file on your desktop and import them to the portable version. You can export/import more stuff using FEBE addon but that's a whole world of headaches if you don't your doing.
    Many of your extensions favourites extensions will no longer work on FFox 3.6.x but if, in that same addon's page, you look around until you find a link to previous versions of the addon, you will notice that the compatibility info is right below the version numbers. Just download and install the latest version that is compatible with you 3.6.x....
    Voila mon ami! Your FFox 3.6 portable has just become your own private Download Mule whom you can throttle to your hearts content (ever throttle a real Mule??? I wouldn't try it, personally...) Do your regular browsing in another (unthrottled) browser and do your big downloads in the Mule...
    If you want to keep using your brand spanking new Firefox for other types of browsing while using this portable Mule edition for the downloads, just add -p -no-remote to the shortcut leading to your Firefox Portable Mule edition.
    For example, my taskbar shortcut to my Firefox Portable is:
    ""C:\Program Files (x86)\FirefoxPortableLegacy36\FirefoxPortable.exe"
    I just changed it to:
    "C:\Program Files (x86)\FirefoxPortableLegacy36\FirefoxPortable.exe" -p -no-remote
    This will make it occupy it's own independent instance and I can use the both my Firefox Nightly and the Firefox Portable editions at the same time (each one, using a different profile ie. extensions, cookies, password, cache etc).
    If you're on Linux, you can just run this on Wine and set the Windows Version to Windows 2000 in the Wine config,

    Solution 0.6.9.23.11 (Non-DIY Version of my Solution):
    Download my preconfigured but SWAGGED-THE-HECK-UP PortableFirefox 3.6
    Having realized that some of you may find the above to be daunting. I took my own customize firefox portable, took out all my data and compressed the folder (it's portable, so it'll run as soon as you unzip it).
    Here is a screenshot:
    http://www.mediafire.com/?o95nkwo8y6q535j
    Here is the download link:
    http://www.mediafire.com/?xdw87ivf3184u2s
    Don't forget to modify your Start/Taskbar shortcuts:
    "C:\wherever you decide to put it\FirefoxPortableLegacy36-Swagged-UP!\FirefoxPortable.exe"
    I just changed it to:
    "C:\wherever you decide to put it\FirefoxPortableLegacy36-Swagged-UP!\FirefoxPortable.exe" -p -no-remote

  • Why does Adobe refuse to provide the latest version of Camera Raw (like my Canon 6d) for CS5?

    Why does Adobe refuse to provide the latest version of Camera Raw (like my Canon 6d) that could be supported in Photoshop CS5 or earlier?  Its like Adobe saying you want a Camera Raw for you Camera then buy CS6 which is insulting to your customers.

    Adobe's policy to to provide free updates (not upgrades) for currently shipping software, which means the current Photoshop CS6 and Camera Raw 7.x. Development on Photoshop CS5.x and Camera Raw 6.x stopped when Photoshop CS6 started shipping. While it may appear on the surface that's it's a ploy to force users to upgrade to the most recent version when getting a new camera, it's really a policy based on the technical issues of trying to provide backwards compatible software for application that are no longer being developed.
    Camera Raw is a plug-in for Photoshop and as such, it is dependent on the Photoshop SDK in which it loads...it's also dependent upon the system level APIs being used by the applications. Could Adobe keep upgrading old software? Yes, but it would be a technical nightmare.
    Your alternative is simply use the free DNG Converter if you want to use new cameras that weren't in existence when your old software was developed. Pretty simple really and it's not designed as insult to Adobe customers...it's actually an affirmative program to make sure current users are provided support.
    The problem of new camera support for old software is really a problem caused primarily by the camera companies spawning off new cameras whose file formats are undocumented and proprietary. If the camera makers adopted a standard file format that could be opened in standard applications (kinda like DNG) then tis problem would be mitigated. You really should place the lion's share of the problem at the feet of the camera companies...

  • Download updates for the lion and I read the writing could not save any of the selected updates. Why?

    why after Download updates for the lion 10.7 and I read the writing could not save any of the selected updates and I can't upgrade the software ?

    The only thing that worked for me was to boot in safe mode.
    Power down.  Then press power button and hold 'shift' key until grey screen with progress bar appears... Once booted and logged in just open safari and browse to applestore. 
    No trouble at all once I did this.
    Reminder: create full backup before you upgrade OS
    Hope it helps.

    After doing a software update for iPhoto, some of the photos in my library appear distorted and stretched. I have tried repairing the library, rebuliding and repairing the thumbnails but they are still distorted. Has anyone else experienced this and found a solution?

    What upgrade did you apply?  As a test launch iPhoto with the Option key held down and create a new, test library.  Import some photos and test to see if the same problem persists. Does it?
