A few weeks ago Sony confirmed that it will not be giving Android 4.1 Jelly bean updates to it's 2011 xperia MDPI devices like live with walkman, Xperia mini etc.. But we don't have to worry about that, we have our fxp team working hard for us... Cyanogenmod 10 based on Latest JB is available to download..
Please note that these are unofficial releases, they did not release any stable Cyanogenmod 10 versions yet, so these versions WILL have some bugs.. So Install it only if you know what you are doing.. IF you often tests custom roms and you know how to revert back to your favorite one easily, then go on... Test it.. :-)
