Hello guys,
My Xperia z2 is currently running in 4.4.2 firmware.
I have got update notification ? for 4.4.4
But I am waiting for 5.0 , is it possible to directly update from 4.4.2 to lollipop through ota (without flashing ftf . )
Sent from my D6503 using XDA Free mobile app
Ok so since lollipop hasn't been released yet, I don't think anyone will me able to answer your question certain.
I would assume no. Ota updates I thought are updated system files and not a full rom. There may be a prerequisite to have some (or all) 4.4.4 system partition to be used as a base for 5.0.
I think you will have to do at least two updates. (first 4.4.4 -> phone updates and reboots -> new update notification for 5.0)

Hello everyone, recently my friend wants to update his S3 android from 4.1.2 to 4.4, but however the OTA software update shows that the newest update has been installed
How can he get an update of android of his S3? His phone information are as below , please ignore the Chinese characters
Btw he wants to try UPSM on his phone, does he need to root his phone
Please help me
No 4.4 update was released for i9300. The last firmware is 4.3 (you can find HERE).
If he really wants 4.4 or above... yeah he needs root. The most similar ROM for i9300 version 4.4 is the back-to-n00t by arter97.
Cheers.

Thanks a lot
do I need to install a universal offical ROM to let him update from 4.1 to 4.3 via OTA?
No, if 4.1 is official just download and flash via Odin the 4.3.
I downgraded from 5.0.2. to KitKat because of the memory leak, I have rooted and backed up the TA partition. I haven't installed any recoveries, but my question is, if Sony do ever release the 5.1 update through OTA would it be ok to upgrade?
Not GPE Z Ultra
Thank you
i have a lgl41c 4.4 kitkat and want to upgrade to 5.1 lollipop, build #kot49il41cv10a. device has been rooted
.can anyone suggest a custom rom. xda community help
As far as I'm concerned your phone will not get a official update.
I need to update to android 5.1.1 on my z2 D6503 LTE
I'm currently on android lollipop 5.0.2 w/root+custom recovery(installed via XZRecover app)
IS there a file that i can flash inside custom recovery which updates my phone to android 5.1.1 with root and without loosing any files/photos/apps

I have an official lollipop upgrade rom downloaded and installed on my huafung-bungding-giggling mobile and it works great
I have now found an official marshmallow upgrade but it says
"there’s no official rollback available right now, so you’ll have to stay on Marshmallow for a while."
If I install it and I don't like it then can I not just reinstall the lollipop image?
Please be clear with your words,
Now what ROM you are using and also let me know with andriod ver.???
Originally running Android 4.4
Recently found Android 5.1 rom official upgrade
installed and working peachy
Now I have found the official Android 6.0 rom online update for my phone
My question is if I install the marshmallow rom and I don't like it. If I have the lollipop rom what is to stop me installing it back?
I'd there something that I'm not getting, that would prevent me rolling back?
Actually I'll just go for it
