Weirdly Thommo the WiFi seems to be the one thing that is working quite well for me. The indicated strength on the phone is show low but using WiFi Analyzer i can see that the actual strength is no different to what it was in GB

Can any one let me know if this has wifi direct feature and improved ram allotment.

I cant believe XP is having 801 mb usable ram. of course after loading 450mb free can see greater than 200mb in XS

I manually flashed the .55 firmware. One noticeable improvement is the camera quick launch/fast capture. It works all the time now, at least for me. I've yet to test the battery life.

Not much improvement on the battery end. Android System still stays awake even in Flight Mode or with Wifi/Data turned off. If in idle mode, managed to substain battery for 1 day 5 hours before battery level drops to 25%. When active, Xperia S continue to drain battery.

The only difference from regional firmwares are the bloatware?

The bloatwares of this FW SG are erasable?

The major changes in 6.1.A.2.55 are bugfixes related to issues raised by local operators, so this update is network operator specific. For more information if you will get this update you can contact your network operator.

weird that UK has not received any firmware's since the initial ICS release for its SIM free handsets given the firmware is bug ridden. Handy the SI numbers has gone as well so we cant keep track of the time since this rubbish was forced on us.

Thanks

As gabzki said, the noticeable improvement after upgrading to .55 (in Egypt) is that the camera quick launch is working properly on each time you use it (it takes approximately one second to capture).
