We're now rolling out the Jelly Bean update for Sony Xperia Ion.

It may not be available for all countries/operators yet but try updating using PC Companion/Update service.

Availability and rollout timing will vary by market and customer variants

For further questions regarding Jelly Bean update for your specific market I recommend you to contact your local support:

Dear henke

i think it is better to you to see the particular country website before giving this type of stereo phonic answers because since 8 days sony india site is telling that in our region ion is having jellybean update but not really available through pc companion.it is the main bluffing of sony and you are also supporting the same bluffing with out knowing the facts.i think if you are a sony employee please go through the website and give us correct answer.if no update is available please try to remove that indian ion users are having update from sony site why because in india i think no operator specific model of ion was available.

that's what we are telling since 8 days why sony is bluffing,i think you can understand our issue now,if possible guide sony

let me try to understand, the update its finally out somewhere in the world but that does not mean its globally available, just like any other update it has to go through an approval process and then you will get the update.

then sony should not display about this update for india.it is quite clear that after getting approval only they can post on the website.if not why they updated this indian site which we belongs to are having update.may be to bluff us or to save skin from this type of queeries from other parts of the world.sir lastly i can say i have given proof from sony india site only

Even after installing Java patch, Sony update centre, I am unable to update my phone to JB from ICS. Please let me know if there is any other alternate way of doing it.
