Sony launches new updates of Android 4.0 ICS for Xperia Go, Xperia U and Xperia Sola. In here, we conduct our own updates for our Sony Xperia Smartphone – Xperia Sola.

As we plugged the Sony Xperia Sola into the PC, with Sony PC Companion installed on the PC, it automatically detects our Sony Xperia Sola. By launching the Sony PC Companion, there is a new updates for Sony Xperia Sola (6.1.B.1.10) latest updates.

– Lock screen improved functionality
– Can used touch screen capability even you wearing a glove with Glove Mode Enabling
– Improved control for mobile data consumption and battery life
– Album application replace for the old Gallery application
– Backup and Restore application for data recovery and backups
– Browser experience also improved
– Screenshot not anymore working by just holding on Power button and select Take Screenshot. You need to press and hold Power button and Volume down key at the same time.
* There are several things still needs to be discovered on new updates for Xperia Sola. 😀

The good thing about the updates I can used eraser of my pencil to unlock the lock screen, how convenient is that! 😀

So if you still have an old Android 2.3 Gingerbread on your Sony Xperia Sola or (whether Xperia U or Xperia Go), then try to update it with the latest Android Software. 😀

* One good advice before you update the Xperia Sola, U or Go, is to backup all the data on your smartphone via Sony PC Companion.

After the backup, click the link A phone software update is available.

For the update, it took us 1 hour (more or less) until we successfully finish the updates. It all depends on the internet connection and the process involve. 😀
