heya, i just got my xperia z ultra a few weeks ago, and about 3 days in i decided to set everything up the way i like it, which also includes having the whole device encrypted, but then when i turned the phone on from full power off, the bootloader was in chinese or japanese.
does anyone else use there xperia z ultra fully encrypted? and if so, have they come across this same issue,
im a going to flash the "Xperia Z Ultra XL39h official firmware 4.2.2 International: 14.1.b.0.471_global" and hopefully that will have an english bootloader.
i have updated to 532, and the service menu is telling me that i have the new zealand software. 1276-0361_R7A
Hi everyone I have some doubts I hope you can clear for me.
This Monday I buyed an awesome Z2 with my local carrier (TIM-Telecom Italia Mobile) for 15 eur per month
Today I saw on Sony's website that the latest update right now is 17.1.2.A.0.314 and had already solved the camera overheating problems on FW 17.1.1.A.402 which is my main complain about the phone.
I hate to be outdated having I high end phone
So I'm thinking about debrand the phone but I'm afraid I could avoid warranty if so.
I saw this tutorial:
xperiablog.net/2014/06/01/debrand-your-xperia-z2-tutorial
Is it safe? It doesn't matter if I use that UK rom on my italian phone? Can't I use another generic rom to do the process (i.e an italian one)? I can return to the stock TIM rom if anything happens and they will accept it for warranty?
Sorry if these are such newbie questions but I just buyed the phone it's awesome and I don't wanna lose it
Thanks ^^

if your device is a Xperia Z2 LTE (D6503) then all for a Z2 (D6503) will work without problem on YOUR Z2 (D6503), unless you have a Z2 D6502 then look for D6502 files
take note that your xperia Z2 warrenty from sony will be voided if you unlock your bootloader or root your device

Thanks I used a generic italian 1.17.1.2.A.314 and everything went well
I own an Xperia Z5 and patiently waited for the Marshmallow update when I noticed that it was already released which made me look in the software info. Apparently I have a carrier branded stockware installed, on a phone from which I thought isnt branded at all.
I got it from someone else so it may be possible that he flashed it himself. So now to my question: How do I know if this is the original stockware or not?
HI everybody. I live in Italy, I have the 16GB variant of Xperia M4 Aqua (E2333) bought from Amazon.fr, SIM free.
Now I'm stuck with lollipop.
Last week was released the official MM update both in France (16GB variants) both in Italy (8GB) variants (16GB variants are not sold in Italy).
I received an email with the notification of the new software release, but if I check into settings/devicesinfo/softwareupdate no ota available.
If I connect my phone to Pc, Xperia companion says "up to date", also if I check via IMEI it says i have the latest software available.
I updated my phone several times since I bought it, minor updates, I received them almost instantly after the official rollout.
It seems strange to me. Anyone else facing this problem?
Hi, my phone behaves the same (dual-sim 16GB). I'm in Czech Republic and have bought it in French e-shop. I've heard, that it won't be released at once for all the users. So maybe it's still yet to come.
Same here.
Live in Belgium.
Bought E2333 through expansys.fr.
Still no update, not OTA, not through companion on windows
> 1,5GB free (I saw somewhere you need at least 500mb free storage)
Battery mostly > 80% (thought that some updates don't show up on low battery).
So I try to keep my xperia in optimal status to receive the update...
I've also noticed that all articles I've seen about the upgrade mention version 26.3.A.0.131, but for E2333 we need 26.3.B.0.131.
I wanted to post a link, but the forum rules don't let me until I have 10 posts. However open source archives are available for download on sony developer world. In description there is:
Open source download for Xperia M4 Aqua (E2303, E2353, E2306); software version 26.3.A.0.131. And Xperia M4 Aqua Dual (E2333, E2363, E2312); software version 26.3.B.0.131.
Hi im from Macedonia and i have this problem to i contacted sony support and they sad the update will arrrive for evry device at diffrent time it doesent depend on the contry or city that you live in they sad they are doing a roll out so it will arive for our phones as we get on row.
