  • @anurag news and updates are coming for xperia z everyday.. but nothing for xperia z1 ? what the heck is this ?

    • Mate z1 just got this bug fixing update 1.136 firmware which Xz has got now so you should be happy that you got it before them..

      Now if any more bug fixing update comes for Z1, i'll be surprised...minor can come.

      Now expecting KitKat soon in a month's time frame hopefully ;)

      • Rumours say the Android 4.4 - Kitkat for Xperia Z1 may potentially roll out in next week.. Is That True..?

        • Never trust rumors but sure not coming in a week, hope we see Sonys official statement on it soon.

          We think KitKat will be shown on Sony D6503 at MWC event first then Z1 will get it...otherwise no point of making KitKat exclusive...

          If internals are to be trusted kitkat is not coming for next one months its still in testing 14.3.a.x.xxx firmware very buggy not stable.

  • The bug fixing for z1.....only made bugs not visible seen
    battery drain faster
    scrreen on after a call delayed
    Basically I saw nothin new
    I had to downgrade

  • Hello Anurag can you please tell me exactly when the 4.3 update is coming for my Xperia SP C5302.. Sony was my favorite company from my childhood. .... Specially for music HiFi systems & phones.. I started loving it more when my cousin bought his Sony Ericsson K310i model I was fan if the music quality the deep bass & all.. now I bought for my own.. I love the SP very much its a nic phone bt the camera is below average...

  • Hey m. Anurag I have Xperia Z running 4.2.2 Jelly Bean. If I would flash 4.3 10.4.1.B.0.101 singapore (my country is lebanon) I will brick my Device? Because another country and I will loose coberage? Freq of lebanon: LTE 1800 Mhz, 3G 900 and 2100 Mhz... And how to flash 4.3?

    • Mate Singapore FTF link is for Xperia ZL, DO NOT flash on XZ it will brick your device.
      You are only allowed to flash XZ any region ftf on any region XZ device.

  • Good day Mr. Krumar. I just have a question, im from the philippines, i bought my xperia z in indonesia, c6603. it doesnt update to any firmware. thats why i decided to use flashtool. and luckily it worked, now im running adroid 4.3.. is it possible that my country also changed? becaus im now receiving updates of walkman, and other sony apps. is it possible for me to receive the latest minor firmware update? thanks a lot.
