Xperia Zr lollipop update

Is this update coming to our devices at all? And when is it coming? We were announced for update for some time now and honestly other devices are getting improved versions of lollipop while we haven't even seen the first one.

If it was a hardver issue I would understand but it obviously isn't so why haven't  the update rollout began???

Yep I have .283 firmware. Thank you, now I at least know which version of firmware I have. Also onw thing if I may... is it software/phone branded by some mobile provider like for example vodafone or such

Taiwan only have one firmware which fits all - There is no firmware for different networks

Ok so I guess there is no way to get firmware for region I live in or closest to which I live in. Is this with Taiwan good thing and honestly I'm little lost in all this but how does it affect me getting updates?

You could flash your phone with flashtool

This is how to use flashtool

this is where you can find the firmware/ftf files
