Sony Mobile has just announced, via its official blog, a whitelist of the company’s Android devices that will be updated to the latest Android 4.3 OS, which was just announced late Wednesday night at a Google event in San Francisco.

While its current flagships are already receiving updates to Android 4.2, Sony Mobile has confirmed that most of its 2013 models – namely the Xperia Z, Xperia ZL, Xperia ZR, Xperia SP, the new Xperia Z Ultra as well as the Xperia Tablet Z – have been confirmed to be updated to Google’s latest iteration of the Android platform.

On top of that, Sony is also looking at updating some of its devices running on Android 4.1 directly to Android 4.3, and will be sharing more news on that in the near future.

fast fast fast

i recall a press article that said the 4.3 update will only come early august.

can you go into download mode?

if yes try to reflash with SUS..

upgrade to stock firmware..

sony update service (sus)

installing sony update service..
btw, how to go to download mode if my phone can't on completely..??

in SUS they will give you the instructions after selecting stuff through a few screens..

turn off phone completely, then plug USB to the phone.. BUT not the computer first.

when its ready, just keep pressing the volume down key + power on, then plug the usb to the PC and it should bring you to the next step.. if done correctly.

thanks bro...
hopefully this will work...
i hope my baby not 'merajuk' anymore...

hopefully u get to restore

i think i damage my sim card slot with the nano sim adapter..
what should i do?
any advise?

anyone kind enough to give me some help?
thx

if its not the phone then just replace the simcard.. i guess..

go to your network provider and say simcard damaged, you should be able to get a new one on the day itself (if they're hardworking).. or wait a few days..

>< the slot got problem..
still under warranty . but might under human error?
able to get warranty?
coz i can see the pin inside slightly bent

try send for warranty first, hopefully they will accept it. one thing to keep in mind tho, if our SIM tray is "insert n push"type, never use SIM adaptor. coz if it stuck, then the probability of us damagin thecslot is higher as we will try to take out the SIM with force. I learn my leason before.

Problem is take how long

Will enjoy 4.3 on my nexus first then only Sony later.

haha, cant wait for 4.3, but i rather Sony release late with stable version rather fast with buggy version (4.2). zzz
hopefully with honomi launcher, camera apps and others too.

I only want honami launcher officially on z,zl. Then I can make homescreen in landscape mode. Others I think almost same only. Still happy with my Zl.

If stock camera can made video recording pause, and continue again will be good.

ya, agree. as the honomi camera apps have lots new features, so i would like it official update for Z/ZL.
like the timeshift, 3D effect etc. it's fun.

Haha I'm prefer to useful features. S4 and Zl latest firmware compare camera photo quality. Just same. Zl brighter. Noise both also got. But they can pause record video. Which is useful.

yaya, but however i found out S4 still got better image color reproduction, not sure izit because the SAmoled screen.
but confirm is size and details S4 will win little bit... which is sad for Z/ZL as all also using Exmor RS sensor.
Just wait for better update for our phone lo.

btw, u guys found out our Z HDR mode or night mode, not same as other phone like Samsung or HTC, where their HDR/Night mode make dark part become brighter but ours is bright part become brigther and dark part become darker. wait me free i post some sample pics... super ill here.. haha
