Why I am still on 4.2.2 with Z1 ??

I was very angry when I see that another update to 4.4

I have still 4.2.2 on my Z1.

I tried SUS and PCC, but both show that I already have the latest software.

I do not know if there is something wrong with my Z1?

I live in Central Europe, and I do not have 4.3 available.

When will I get 4.4?not before summer.

Has anyone else the same problem? Am I the only one?

The update has to be authorised by your network which inturn need to inform Sony - If your network didn't inform sony which Customization numbers had been authorised then how would Sony be able to allow the update


The fact is...why this never happen to other phones? Such like HTC? Samsung?..... most of the flagship phones get their updates already... except Sony....

Not every make has it - example my S4 is still running 4.3 where as my Z1 and Z Ultra have been manually flashed to 4.4.2

Initially I was thinking to flash my Z1 as well, but I was told the warranty will void. By the way, this is my 2nd unit of Z1, the 1st unit F***kup after updated to 4.3 (.290)... it restart every 20sec non stop, after 2 weeks they can't solve the problem and replaced a brand new unit for me, but now I am having yellow tint issue and most annoying is ...the loudspeaker activated everytime I receive a call. I tried to reboot my phone a several times with repair...but it doesn't work. And now the worse issue, my Sony Bridge quit unexpectedly even reinstall a few times.... really sad and disappointed ...

The speaker issue is easily fixed

Open Settings then Apps and swipe to All and locate Chrome and open select uninstall updates - Job done
