The PC Companion update is the entire rom, whereas the OTA update is only the parts of the rom that are updated.
It makes no difference which way you update.

So if the PC Companion update is the entire ROM then i can use it to update my rooted phone with custom recovery right? I mean I wouldn't be stuck in the recovery screen like it happens when we try doing OTA with custom recovery?
Thanks in advance.

Hi, I think I have bricked my phone! =(
I flashed yesterday the BlackCNA rom and I didnt liked it so I flash the stock rom 4.0.4 by odin, then the note stucked at samsungs logo, when this happened I restart the phone an flashed CWM, then CWM SuperSU and the francos kernel to root the phone.
The thing is that now I cant use my phone because it doesnt pass the samsungs logo!
First wrong section
Second get a stock gb rom and flash it via Odin...
Btw you don't have to flash franco to gain root..
There's plenty easy methods to root and francos its a way outdated kernel

Now I did a wipe cache and nothing!!
Before flashing stock gb flash Hydracore Standart then reboot to recovery and wipe everything and see if the phone boots

I flashed hydracore and do all wipes, and after 5 minutes the note started! thanks!!!
No problem.. Do not flash franco that's a really old software.. And with hydra you are safe to go with all roms (ics) and you gain root and cwm..
Cheers

Thank men! You saved me!!
Now I have the problem that appears me a software update (of 5mb) with OTA and I put ok, it download correct and ask me to restart the phone, and when I put OK it restarts but at the recovery, so I dont know what to put but restart phone. How I can install this update with OTA without this problem?

Seems like you are on custom Kernel (hydracore) and as long as you are on custom kernels you cannot receive OTA updates. As of now best for you is to just ignore the OTA update.

Ok, I'll do that. But for the future when JB appears by OTA how can I put the official kernel?

You can download stock kernel for your rom from here and then flash using mobile odin. but there is no surety of OTA update even after flashing stock kernel but you can use kies for major updates.

Lol you don't have to worry about that for some months... Besides when ever the official gets out you can happily download it from sammobile.com then flash it via odin

Yeah but no matter if India, Germany, UK or what ever. You can flash every stock ROM no matter which country.
With .67 you are up to date. Also with .74
Here is the .74 if you want to flash it, there is no customize

who knows where is a proper download-link for Android Kitkat 4.4.2 (xperia Z) as *.ftf-file ?!
The thing is that I already followed such links and only got either 4.1.2 (named as kitkat) or 4.2.2 (named as kitkat too) ...
... so where is a proper link ? thx very much - FlashTool is already on my machine ...
FTF files are packages of official software. 4.4 is not released by Sony yet.

ah hm. have overseen that friend of mine has flashed 4.4.2 - ... but it was Samsung or else different device than Sony.
But FlashTool has feature to convert files ?! Can I somehow convert an Android 4.4.2 package to *.ftf (if not with FlashTool - then
with else tool ... ) ?! This looks humblesome, because it is easier then to flash CM or Omnirom with an appropriate app ...
No. Official software only.
I'm not sure of the details, but I assume as Flashtool uses the same method as official Sony tools to flash, it will probably only flash software signed by Sony.

Appropriate APP? You just flash the. ZIP in the recovery.
