[Q] Upgrade to 10.3.1.A.2.74 or stay at .67 build? - Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Quick question..
Is it worth upgrade to operator specific 10.3.1.A.2.74 FW update and root it with the use of custom kernel or should I stay on generic unbranded .67 firmware? Any benefits of using 10.3.1.A.2.74 or..?

Is .74 available for your specific operator? if yes then it's better to upgrade due to some baseband changes. If it's not available for your specific operator then start on .64

I think 74 is for some countries only and branded only. Those countries skipped 67 and I don't think we will get that version because it's available in just three or four countries.

The .74 is 3 Denmark exclusive, but someone said that this one gives better battery life than generic unbranded .67 FW, thanks to newer baseband. Hmm ..

To bad that every deodex-method out there doesn't work at all, otherwise I would stay on this FW (after deodexing and some rooting / de-bloating/tweaking) and try it a little, for some testing and see if it is better than generic unbranded .67 FW!

Thanks for the answer
Now I'm running the Nordic version. 253 with R5A and 3 days ago I was on. 253 R4A and so fare as I can see, there no difference in pre installed apps, the only difference I see is in browser and bookmarks in this Nordic version is newspaper from Norway, Sweden and Denmark
In the danish R4A is nothing at all
But thanks for the answer

Can't get 4.3

Why i dont get android 4.3 for my phone?
Sent from my C6602 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Because Sony haven't released it for your region yet.
Either flash one of the many generic FTF available in the general section or just wait until it's released.
Either way, this did not require a thread. The information is readily available here if you just look.

Is it just me or UK-cust Z1's didn't get Kitkat yet?

Hello all,
I got my Z1 through Amazon, my customization number is 1276-0875 (Customized UK). It took sometime to get the 4.3 update, like 3 weeks later the official release. Till now I didn't get any update notification on my phone or PCC for Kitkat. Is that normal? :|
It's not out yet

Individual carriers will be working on the update, testing/fixing etc. Probably better that you wait seems as there was so many bugs in the last one.

[Q] It's possible to change baseband?

Hi all, I have the stock 4.4.2 HK .233 firmware for now, it's possible to change the baseband by flashing it through flashtool? If yes what do I have to select when flashing?
Thanks in advance

Simply NO!
You may get bootloop and 89% chance you will get missing IMEI number and no signal
