Latest Android software available!

Well, that's what Xperia Companion is telling me when I plug my X Compact into my PC.

But, on clicking on UPDATE and OK to download the new software nothing happens. The new upgrade is meant to be downloading in the background but nothing's happening.


Anyone else experiencing the same?

It does a standard search starting with a short message that a new update is available and then comes to the conclusion that you're on the latest software.

That is normal behaviour.

Your update to Oreo will be available for you in due time, depending on your region and /or provider.

You patience maybe tested during 2 or 3 weeks.

Hi,

That's what is was doing but I now only see the message that new software is available.

Are you saying that this is a false message?

I think it might just be an extra load on servers, try again in a few. Also, make sure that you have enough space on your hard disk plus a stable internet connection.

What happened yesterday was:

I reconnected the Xperia to my PC on three separate occasions and every time the Companion app informed me that an OS update was available and that it would download in the background.

On the fourth attempt I was informed that my software was running with the latest available version.

I connected this morning and was informed that a new software version was available but then told that I was running the latest version on clicking on 'update'.

All very confusing.

That's normal.

It seeks for udates and comes to the conclusion that 7.1.1 is the most recent for you (at this moment)

It just isn't your turn yet.

Possibly you have to wait one or two weeks depending on region and provider.

I didn't receive any system updates in the last 2 months (even if I tried to update/refresh). I was used to get 1 system update every month last year. What should I do?
