Hello XDA
I recently flashed the Australian 4.2.2 onto my Xperia Z (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2280329) however I notice it is displaying "4.1.2" on my phone details instead of "4.2.2". Is it because the ROM I downloaded was 4.1.2? It also says that my firmware is up to date, yet displays 4.1.2.

I'm sorry, I don't actually know what the widgets screen actually looks like. Can you post a picture please?
I'm starting to feel that my version is in fact 4.1.2 after looking around for a while because it is .253, do Sony or other companies who make Android phones release firmware updates for Generic Unbranded firmware later than for phones with built in firmware from Vodafone etc?
if your firmware is .253 then you are definitely on 4.1.2.
The xda thread you linked to is also the same. So far only Optus has released 4.2.2 (which is .423)
You need to flash the FTF using the latest flashtool. Its v9.11 i believe.

you are most likely on the old fw which is 4.1.2.
Here is a tutorial on how to flash FTF files
if you have a model of C6603 Flash this ftf file [STOCK ROM][FTF] Xperia Z (C6603) v4.2.2 10.3.A.0.423 Generic ES (Unbranded/Spain)
if you have a model of C6602 Fash this ftf file [STOCK ROM][FTF] (C6602) v4.2.2 10.3.A.0.423 Generic TW (Unbranded/Taiwan)

I've got a C6602 model but I have installed C6603 firmware. Can I still update my phone without doing it manually?

connect your device to your computer and try using Sony PC Companion or Sony Update Service. I have no clue will it work, but it should. If not then flash one of the FTF files above.

I've Vodafone Australia branded xperia tx which also sim unlocked. I no longer use Vodafone and I would like to debrand it.
Is it possible to flash it with normal non branded Sony firmware?
Also my phone is bootloader locked and it can't be unlocked.
my reason to debrand it is i am afraid that i have to wait for vodafone to release jellybean. not sure about though.
Any help would be really appreciated since i am a noob in this regard.

When downgrading from 4.2.2 to 4.1.2, you need to wipe all data or it won't work. Why do you need the 'Generic US' firmware anyway? Does it contain any special features which you need and which are not available in 'Generic TW'? It's the worst customization when it comes to updates..
it doesn't have any special features, i don't knowt what in Generic TW firmware have. I just worry that if i flash other region firmware i won't get update over the air later. and i think the original firmware is good for me.

Today, Generic US has been updated to 10.3.A.0.423. You don't need an FTF to flash this firmware. Just follow this guide to change your customization number to 1271-0119 and install the update with Sony PC Companion: [GUIDE] Download ANY firmware customization from Sony & create an FTF with Flashtool

LTE firmware is for C6603. The C6602 contains different hardware and has no LTE support. If you flash firmware for the wrong device, you might get connectivity problems and you will no longer receive any software updates from Sony (because they check the first 8 digits of your IMEI number, which is different for C6602 and C6603).
I just updated to 10.3.A.0.423 last night using a FTF I made from PC Companion. Posted here in case anyone needs it

Just noticed that using C6603 firmware for my C6602 phone wasn't a very good idea.... Sony PC Companion doesn't allow me to update it.
After I reflash the C6602 version of firmware, will I be able to automatically update my phone using Sony PC Companion? My phone is a C6602 bought in China but the Chinese firmware has been flashed out of the device.
same issue i have a C6602 with C6603 rom on it

Were you able to get the phone back to stock? Also is there not a way of flashing the ROM without using the PC and ftf.
I prefer flashing from the phone on CWM because I'm lazy, Is that not an option for installing a stock rom for this phone?

If you find a flashable zip with stock rom, you can flash stock.
But if you have your booloader locked, chances are you lose your root, recovery and go back to barbone kernel.

thanks for the info. Im not 100% knowing if the bootloader is locked or not. I just assumed its unlocked because the phonr is rooted and i'm running AOKP on it. i guess the main reson i want ti know is because i know its not the correct rom for this phone. it works fine but it should be the one that should be for the phone. not c6603 when the phone is a c6602. would you happen to know the link for a cwm flashable rom version of c6602?

Yesterday it worked fine, today it doesn't.
Don't worry, it should be a problem with the service server, not with the rom.

There is no 4.2.1! Only 4.1.2, 4.2.2 and 4.3
