so I just got the z ultra today and it came with 4.3 so I updated to 4.4.2 and check for updates to 4.4.4 but it says I'm on the latest firmware any help. Also i'm in the USA
Did you try ota update? Try with pcc instead. Ota's take longer to reach the consumer. Also did you buy an unlocked phone or from a network? If from a network then updates get passed to them first so that they can put all their bloatware on it before releasing. Some operators take months on their updates.

Hello Guys,
I bought Sony Xperia Tablet Z last month in India. I've got the latest update and it is still version 4.1.2. I googled and found out that 4.2 version is already available for Xperia Tablet Z. However it says no new updates available. Anyone has any information when sony is going to release 4.2.2 for Tablet Z in India?

You have model# SGP351?
Yes, many regions got the update.
I have model# SGP351
It is the model that is made for the US that works with ATT and T-Mobile. Was released about 3 weeks ago
No update to 4.2.2
4.1.2 is installed no over the air update and no update if I connect to Sony PC companion. I have had the tablet for about 2 weeks now and nothing. I check everyday.
Person in this thread same thing

That's pity. Sony has tweeted about the rollout few weeks ago. I asked in the customer care but they don't have any information.
If you check here http://www.sonymobile.com/in/software/tablets/xperia-tablet-z/ you can see that the upgrade has been released on 5th August.

maybe it will be available along with this New build 14.2.A.1.114 which has been certified :good:
Just thought I'd provide an update:
I rooted my Xperia Z using this simple tool :
http://download.cnet.com/Kingo-Android-Root/3000-2094_4-75996768.html
I then downloaded ES file explorer and enabled RW in the root directory.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.estrongs.android.pop&hl=en_GB
I edited the build.prop file within the /system folder and changed my customization number to the Xperia Z Three Network one, this allowed me to receive the 4.3 update. From doing my searches it appears 3 are very quick to push out any new update Sony gives, so since my customization number is now locked to the 3 network one, I should get 4.4 very quickly when Sony push it out. The only disadvantage of this method seems to be the 3 boot animation that shows up every time you turn on the phone , but apart from that it's fine.
4.3 is lovely!

Your Tablet Z... Is it LTE SGP321 or WiFi?? If its SGP321 then i would really be greatful if you could provide me with an ftf ... i've got a uk o2 branded one which i obviously dont want xD hence why i need an unbranded uk firmware and not singapore or any other country for that matter

Mines WIFI I'm afraid mate. Take a look around the Xperia Tablet Z forum. Sure someone uploaded the correct FTF.
Netherlands also nothing. This rom is still ok, no rush for updating yet.
I am with EE in UK and have had my 4.3 update some time ago (although I bought the phone sim free via Amazon).
That's so strange mine is uk so free no update here
Tried flashing a Singapore and Central Europe FTF for my UK C6833, but both failed to boot.
Mine also still hasn't arrived in UK on a sim-free Amazon.
It's certainly no biggy, but every single day I use this phone I find something to disappointment me a little more.
ahhh damn lol... i tried looking but nobody has the EXACT same one i need... i eventually managed to customize my cda to the uk by rooting it via the older firmware first and then did an upgrade which i then used to make an FTF... so both my Xperia Z Ultra and Xperia Tablet Z are running on UK firmware now even though the Z Ultra was originally from Hong Kong and the Tablet Z (O2 Branded with O2 apps) was from O2 UK xD... i could of kept as it was but i didnt want the bloatware that comes with HK firmware and boy is it alot compared to UKs

Any idea how I can get my C6802, completely stock, upgraded to 4.4.4?
I still haven't got the OTA.... assuming because I'm in Canada?

I was expecting that - but I couldn't find any release info for Canada, since the C6802 is very rare here. 99% of the Z Ultras here are the LTE version.
I use c6802 like you,i didnt anticipate get any update for this model befor LTE one and soon....
I just flashed c6833 ftf to my device. It works fine.
I don't think thats the issue though.
I think its Region.
I don't see Sony not updating the C6802 any different than the C6833.
I think I'm just using the uncommon version in my country.
I just bought the phone recently and it came with 4.4.2 from the previous owner. (It was basically a like new phone)
Are there any region trick methods?

If you are going to force a region change it is just as easy to flash a FTF that is already out there. there is a MY c6802 FTF or flash one of the c6833 versions
So for various reasons I won't go into I'm not able to flash Marshmallow in flashtool. I'm also unsure about the carrier status of the Lollipop firmware I flashed to return to stock, and therefore unsure about OTA status.
If you're in the UK, have you received the OTA? Also, what carrier are you on?
Thanks
I am on three, and have not gotten the update yet.
I noticed when checking for updates to my phone (customized UK) last week there was a 26.3.A.0.131 marshmallow update for EE phones but when i checked last night the EE update had changed back to the previous 26.1.A.3.111 lollipop release

Yeah, I have an EE phone. Got upgraded to 6.0 (via PC Companion, not OTA). Mic stopped working properly (people who called me couldn't hear me speaking) and the 5GHz radio disappeared (only found 2.4GHz networks) so I did a repair using Xperia Companion and it dropped the phone back to 5.0. I guess the release was a bit premature...
I've only got a notification on my phone that i need to connect it via PC Companion and there was a new update to install
I'm on Tesco Mobile (O2 Network) and I didn't receive the update via OTA so I flashed EE 6.0.1 using FlashTool (XperiFirm). Works great and you can uninstall all the pre-bundled EE apps!

A customised UK ftf will work in Greece and vice versa a customised UK ftf would work anywhere as long as it's for the correct model Xperia. Only real difference is the pre installed apps and some say 4g instead of lte when on a data connection.

1) Were you r00ted prior to the update?
So my other question is this to all M4 owners, anyone r00t 6.0 yet, or should I wait a bit longer for a r00t solution?
I really hate the bloat/crap/push/garbage that SONY crams into the phone.

My charge port broke last month.I sent it back to sony for repair running lollipop on Vodafone and it arrived back to me with marshmallow!!
Blow me, the port broke again in a week. Decided to take it to the shop this time. Collected it today (they couldn't fix it) and I'll be blowed, I get given a brand new carrier free m4 back on lollyflop.
Whas going on.....mustn't grumble but I've lost me marshmallows
Was running smoooothly too. Zero issues
Okay so I don't know if many of you will see this, but I've started a petition to fix this Marshmallow update permanently. I seriously can't believe the poor choices Sony make with their phones. This Marshmallow update was rushed in the end, and this phone has the potential to be better. Heating issue is kind of resolved, it doesn't heat up as it used to, but there is still a problem with the animations. Stamina mode is really bad, and no adoptable storage. If you want to make a change, then please sign the petition right here: https://www.change.org/p/sony-marshm...xperia-m4-aqua
Hello all. I just got a Mate 10 (ALP-L09) from a friend and i wonder why the android security patch it's stuck at version 8.0.0.103 (C652) from september 2017... When i connect to HiSuite or check for software update it's telling me that i run the newest software... Why the region code is C652 and it's not C432 (for Europe)... I live in Romania but i got the phone from a friend who lives in Spain... So what can i do to get the latest build?! Thanks in advance
LATER EDIT - After some digging i found out that the C652 is the DEMO unit region code for Europe... so why the GSM working (4G on Orange/Vodafone) but i can't update the software to a newer version?!

They are fully functional, except the ability to update...
You'd have to rebrand it to get an up to date phone.
However, you are lucky. Your phones firmware still can use DC to get unlock code, so you'd only waste $4 instead of $50ish (there are cheaper alternatives but DC is still the cheapest).
Or you could use funky to rebrand, but it's also expensive.
So can you please guide me how to do a rebrand? i am a noobie (or give me some link how to rebrand and get the newest firmware)? Thanks
PS - I am afraid not to brick the phone (i bricked 2 already, a honor 6 and a mate s)

November, but C432.
But C652 is demo and they never receive any updates.
You will see this later on.
Edit: They shouldn't anyway!
But checking FF some devices seem to receive updates, or they are atleast pushed to hicloud. If they end up at user phones is another story.
Ok thanks mate I'll get it replaced
