In Xperia Go the Lag is caused by the Kernel which is not a good build.. flashing custom kernel solve the problem partly but to complete solve the problem you need to flash the kernel and install custom ROM

see my youtube... have no lag and RAM stay around +-80% region no matter what you do... this is awesome

The rom is by Infinity based on SE but partially CM build
yes it is faster than stock as this one we use modified kernel which is lighter and more responsive

check it out at XDA forum

digital mall ground floor

You need to go to sony development website to request to unlock your boot loader (it is provided by sony and follow the steps)

after you do that you should have the code generated by sony after you provide the imei of your phone to sony...

then download android development tools (as guide by sony)

you need to boot your phone into USB mode (Blue led only) and from there use fastboot to push a file into your xperia go (which provide by sony)

then this is the ticky part

go to XDA development site look for Xperia Go thread
there is GO Android Development section... look for the latest kernel with CWM
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1912865
download the "boot image + CWM Touch recovery v5.5.0.4"
where it contain custom CWM recovery... unzip it and extraxt out boot.img
use fastboot to push boot.img into xperia go
you now have CWM in your xperia go.

then copy the entire zip into your SD card and boot into CWM and flash custom kernel

now download Infinity ROM
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1949706

and transfer to SD card and do the magic (Factory wipe / clear cache) and install ZIP (Custom rom)

remember to do full backup incase you screw up everything...

oh your warranty may have void by now hahaha but if you do the proper backup you may still have warranty)

remember flashing wrong boot.img (either wrong build/wrong model) will put your phone into soft brick (yes your phone in coma now) and you probaly shit in your pants.,.. the only way to revive it is to put your phone into USB mode again (blue led) and fastboot in a new boot.img to save your day....

note: noob dont try this at home...

ICS is stable it is the original Kernel that is the problem...

http://developer.sonymobile.com/services/unlock-bootloader/

Follow the stepts above i use win7 64bit no prob

stay tune for Free Xperia Team CM9.1 Alpha Release 3 gonna be good

wait for FXP lotus release for pure CM9 it will be awesome initial test look promising...

for ice: power button + volume down

what do you mean??

waze work just fine on my go since im a regular user too...but if you really comparison try google search but the key point of xperia go is this phone can resisit water and dust as a second phone (if you buy iphone 5) as to go to beach / water related activity you wont regret... now i have no worries going to waterfall and beach cause i know my phone has this feature...

how tha bat life of acro s can last whole day?

so far no bug... mainly because it is based on SE original ROM mod from there

there is a minor memory leak on munjeni linaro kernel but his latest v9 so far seems OK and V10 kernel has a wifi issue...

Testing FXP (Free Xperia Project) Alpha release 146 (our phone codename for FXP is Lotus)

so far so good...

Working:
- Call / Receive
- GPS
- Ultra smooth interface / OS - cause it is CM9
- no bootloop - stable
-
Not working
Found signal a little weak
- Google voice/search did not work (microphone not detected)
- some how 3G signal quite weak
- Camera cant read external SD card
- Cannot import contact from EXT SD card
- (System cannot read EXT SD card only reconize internal) but Astro can see it
- Youtube blank screen only audio
