The .434 update was released a couple weeks ago, I guess there are different release schedules for every country.
I had my XZ rooted with the locked bootloader method ( goroh_kun's ), and ota updates does not work.
Updated through Sony Bridge for Mac, it works, but the root access was lost. Re rooted it with the same method and it works
Seriously? I still have nothing even on PC companion. I'm on unbranded but use an O2 sim.

Same here, and Three don't even have any forums to ask how long updates should be taking, it's been three weeks now and absolutely nothing.
I knew Sony would be slow with updates but didn't realise I would then have to wait for Three to push it through! Will probably have to wait at least six months to get the 4.2.2 update! lol
Extremely bad customer service from Three so will be leaving them when my contract is up, can't even use Google to search for any helpful information as a company called 'Three' brings up almost every query regardless of network operator :silly:

Well, I haven't had the update and I will probably never get it! In a German forum someone contacted the customer care of my provider (t-mobile Germany) and was told by the tech-support that t-mobile will not roll out the .434 as their techs thought that it would harm the phone more than it actually helped. So they're waiting for the next update...
Dunno if it's true, but I could imagine that it is, as every provider releases their updates differently, so they might skip one as well...
you might wanna check if they do?

Im on O2 UK and i've got the update waiting in my notifications, just not done it yet!
Got it like a week ago.
I bought the phone unlocked just over a week ago and updated it straight away to .245.
Have you tried using 'SUS' rather than PC Companion?

I loaded PC Companion and it said .257 was the latest. I then rooted and loaded a custom ROM based on .245 then tried PC Companion again and it said a new update was available and listed .245.

Sony seem to control their updates by "SI" number (have a look under the back panel of your phone for your 'original' one). The SI number relates to a specific market, i.e. factory unlocked UK, EE UK, Vodafone UK, etc. will all have different SI numbers and all get updates at different times.
The reason you have an update available now where you didn't previously is because the custom ROM you flashed has a different SI number than your original phone came with -- you can verify this by checking your SI number against the one in your build.prop file on the line "ro.semc.version.cust".

Which is different to mine (a factory unlocked UK device). Your choices now are to either wait until your carrier has signed off the latest firmware, at which point the update will show up in SUS and probably on PC Companion too, or you can take matters in to your own hands...
Im livin in germany and I was also on 257 and sus and system said, that Im up to date (o2 provider).
So I decided, to flash the 245 fw manually with the flashtool via pc, cause I didnt want to wait.

I've purchased a HTC Butterfly s from Malaysia about 3 weeks back and I've yet to receive any updates . I see majority of the members here had already received their updates . Is it normal or am I missing out on something ? My current software number is 1.11.707.1 . So far the phone is in excellent condition..
Thank you :fingers-crossed:
I'm in Singapore. Same thing. No update yet.

Alright buddy , I thought I was the only one having this problem , thanks :good::fingers-crossed:
I suppose most of us have the HK version of the phone, which is why we got our update already. In other countries where the phone is sold officially, updates may be delayed a bit.
If you want the update ahead of time, you can always grab the updated dump of the stock ROM, but that would most probably mean unlocking the bootloader.

Is it wise machan? rooting just after buying it with company warranty?
earlier i had another Xperia device and i rooted and unlocked bootloader within days, and then playing with it by flashing custom roms maybe 2,3 times per week and at the end it didn't end up well. i heard that there is a life time for the ROM too... so before do anything think twice, coz this is a good phone

Only Sony and/or your provider can confirm that, but even then it would be nice if you could tell us what version are you on now? You don't even tell us that so how are we meant to help you......
Oh sorry! Haha I'm on 4.2.2 at the moment. When do you think the UK will get a 4.3/4.4 update

Why don't you just use Flashtool to get it to your phone using one of the available ftf's ?
Here is a video on how to do that:
No I don't want to void my warranty by rooting. I am just wondering when I might get the update. Thanks anyways for your helps

Flashing with flashtool don't need root acces and it can't be detected.
You have to read before ask,you will have a reponse faster.
Read that ,if your Z1 is not on the list wait a week or two or flash with Flashtool
I would update through the PC companion. Many people seem to have encountered problems flashing with flashtool on this update. It was taking forever for the ota for me as well

When the Z1 first announcement it come with 4.2.2 already. So if he ask for 4.3 or 4.4 that meant he on 4.2.2 already.
reminder, there is no UK generic unbranded FTFs yet...

Whether you use UK generic or any other generic one does not make a difference whatsoever, but it's up to you.
I have never encountered any problems when using Flashtool. Just make sure to use the most recent version.
The 4.3 is avaliable so if you use OTA or SEUS you get it.
As for rooting, it doesnt avoid your warranty unless you remove the root and install a clean version when you deliver the device for repair or replace it.
Only thing that avoid the warranty is unlocking the bootloader.
Keep your .257 rooted version and wait for a rooted locked version for 4.3.
Btw there will come a hotfix version in January (newer 4.3) for Z1.
4.4 will come April/May i think...

Just get Flashtool and ftf and do it manually. I would suggest you CE1 ROM. See link bellow for instruction.

That's weird - I am on 4.1.2 (254) and there is a constant nag in the notification screen of my sony telling me about new update 266
{in fact that was how I updated my device to 4.3 when I got my device new - ignorantly pressing on the notification in my device...}
I know I thought it might take a little time to come through but it still hasn't shown up

ive tried to contact sony and after 2 days waiting for a reply they said try the pc companion tool to do the update, but i already told them i had tried that in the first email so i replied stating that the it does work and its now been 3 day and no response from them
Hey guys has anyone had an idea how to fix this with out having to wipe it as it's still on 4.1.2?
