Both C6602 and C6603's hardware are the same.So I think u can flash C6603 to C6602.But it may a little difficult.
Flashtool can't flash this cellphone now,but I think it can flash future.

But different cell frequencies are supported between each. Flashing the firmware of the other doesn't change the supported frequencies.

thanks for the link dude. i preordered. im really hoping galaxy s4 is a let down so i get this phone
if gs4 turns out to be good i might go with that.
today i got a mail from gsmnation confirming that the c6602 is available for shipping, but after following the link to make the payment i see that the model in that cart is the c6502 (ZL) instead of the c6602, you could check it out following this link: http://www.gsmnation.com/sony-mobile-xperia-z-c6602-unlocked-black.html
anybody knows what happened? its the c6602 really available now?
Had the same issue with gsmnation, was signed up for preorder notice and got an email today saying it was ready for payment but the item in the cart is the C6502(ZL) and not C6602(Z). I sent then a message asking them to confirm whats going on so we shall see what happens. Been a struggle to find any place that even lists the C6602 as existing for preorder let alone purchase.

the c6602 model?? i think that it's not out yet
---------- Post added at 05:47 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:20 PM ----------
Ok, i got news from GSMNATION.. too bad for it, here is the response i received a few seconds ago:
Hello Gabriel,
The ZL is a regional variant of the Z. It is effectively the same phone. Similar to the Xperia T and TX introduced a few months ago. The differences are minor and cosmetic.
IF anything, on a head to head comparison the ZL 6502 is a later release and a superior model to the Z 6602.
You may view the comparison here.
That having been said the misnomer has already been adjusted to avoid confusion.
Regards,
...
So in resume there will be no C6602 available in gsmnation, the preoder of the phone was a "mistake" and they refer to the ZL model instead of the Z one... misleading advertising?
Ok.. im so sad now.

The ZL is not a regional variant. They are two different phones using the same SoC and similar specs. Differences are more than cosmetic much more so than the TX vs T. Have to wonder what they are taking about.

For some reason they are listing the 6602 as not supporting T-Mobiles 1700 band for 3g even though the tech sheet for the 6602 says it should support it.
REALLY leary on ordering one if it doesnt support 1700, if I wanted a Xperia Z that didnt support Tmobile 3g I could have avoided the wait and just gotten the 6603.
*edit* It appears that some of the listings indicate no 1700 support and others do not.

I'm more than positive that they didn't update their FAQ's. The specification page on the same posting has HSPA with 1700/1900 so it does support it even with the new farmed spectrum T-Mobile has been doing. I already ordered mine, so I'll let you know if you are curious

It looks like Xperia ZL is not launching in Japan? Anyone knows if its true?
Don't even see it in their products lineup!! i'm looking forward to ZL and not Z
http://www.sonymobile.co.jp/product/
Sony's released plan of the devices is messed up. Everything they said on their announcements didn't come true. And yeah japan should also recieve Xperia ZL as sony did mention that both Xperia Z and ZL will be available on all southeast asian countries before european countries gets it. But look what's happening now. Europe has already demo units and released Xperia Z now but on Southeast Asia only japan got the Xperia Z release and only singapore got a demo unit with them. Rest of Southeast Asia has no news whatsoever about these devices. And yeah my most anticipated device "Xperia ZL" looks like got left out of the dark now also.
Will the ZL released in germany?
Japan.
Yeah.... no news from japan...
I think buy the sim free version from the net, n use it with the Japan's line is the best choice....

That will be great except even with a SIM Free phone you need to have the IMEI registered by Docomo to use it, and they won't register any device they haven't sold.

Is the UK still officially on. 434?

It is odd, isn't it? I know people like to moan about late updates and whatever, but unlocked owners are now two iterations behind everyone else and I do wonder whether 02 have just forgotten to press the switch? I've had a look at the 02 support pages and there's quite a few people not tied to a network asking them to push the update because they won't get theirs until after that point - trouble is, there's a lot of confusion because everyone assumes that unlocked phones get their update first, and I'm still not sure I quite understand why that isn't the case here? Can anyone illuminate me?
My hope is that we skip 434 and go straight to 307?
if anything it will go straight to .407 which is 4.2.2

I hope you're right, but I'm preparing myself to get .434 when everyone else gets the big update. Any idea, incidentally, why unbranded are last to get updates, which seems counter-intuitive?
mine came with .434
its more a case the uk is last as Belgium unbranded devices have .307, it probably gets rolled out region by region unless bugs/issues are found, same with Samsung, it was nearly always a case of new roms were rolled out in germany first then it got rolled out elsewhere in the world

But UK networks (other than 02) are already on .307 and they've had to do testing, so surely unbranded should be released earlier, not later (as testing for bloatware compliance isn't required?)

Well I've checked with there online support twice both times with the standard rollout reply but surely someone would have raised the issue with uk updates being behind with a higher management. So more likely design.

Most of the people in this forum wants C6906 for AT&T LTE support, but i am in quite opposite situation..
both C6903 and C6906 will work flawlessly with my current provider- bell,
but with C6906 I will have some problem with Korean service providers because it wont support 800MHZ and 1.8GHZ.
(Korea Telecom uses 800, 1800 freq. as long as i remember).
Since i visit Korea often i really want to get c6903 but i really don't know where to get it from.
Is Sony store in US carry C6903? and if it is for how much? I when to the sony website and it only shows C6902.

Biggest difference is the network bands that are being used.
The 03 seems to be for EU/America's and the 33 seems to be for Asia.

Hello, so I'm interested in buying the Z3C from Clove, the D5803 model and I"m from India.
I've read that the only problem will be that I won't be able to use 4G.
So otherwise everything will work on Indian networks? Internet, calling, 3G??
Thanks for your help!
http://dl-developer.sonymobile.com/documentation/whitepapers/Xperia_Z3_Compact_D5803_D5833_WP_1.pdf
Apparently the difference is in the 3g and 4g Bands.
Also the D5833 is the only one to have TD-LTE which is popular in Asia (According to wikipedia) So i'm guessing 5833 is the asian model and the other is the "rest of the world" model.

If you are buying fro Clove because of the price difference please be aware that in most likelihood you will have to pay customs duty which will pretty much match up the price you will pay for it in India. I bought the D5833 model with the Indian LTE band from USA. My friend bought it for me and is now in Kerala. Waiting for him to courier it to me.

Alright, thanks for the warning. Although I checked using the duty calculator they provide and it says I have to pay around 4,000 to customs. That still makes it a lot lower than the Indian retail price. Although I'm not 100% sure it's accurate

I agree. However, given that the phone is already selling in india at a much higher rate and if the customs guys have any idea about its selling price in India, I would think that they would tax it to equate your invoice with the selling price in India. I'm not certain on this though. But there is indeed a chance. This is not discourage you. The phone is now available from ebay.in for 39990 with full sony india warranty.

True. I'll probably wait a few more months for the price to drop.
I'll make sure before buying the phone from Clove to see how much the customs will cost. Thanks
