Many people have to wait much longer for the Update specially from Carriers. Just a little of patience. You will get it anyway but you have to wait.

Sorry. If you can't wait flash 290 CA generic in Z1 General thread and then hook up to PC Companion. You'll get the update.

If you are going to do that you may as well just flash a 4.4 ftf.

I didn't take that route due to the plethora of issues listed. Figured I'd get the update direct from the source.

Which kind of issues?
Read the thread in general. You name it. I'm not saying the ftf method caused them but many users have remedied them by factory resetting. I've also read that users updating via PC Companion have not experienced as many problems. Just a theory.

Right, just a theory. BTW, issues was reported form day 1 with any update like 4.3. Many of them was solved with a Factory Reset so it's not a news. It happen with the 4.4 as well, maybe more frequently, but I will recommend a Factory Reset after any Upgrade, even if there still no issues. Then I don't know what really stop you.

Hi,
I have this phone and was using the stock android browser that came with it. My phone was on the o2 network in the uk.
I recently got my phone unlocked, and wanted to go stock instead of the o2 software.
I flashed my phone to a stock Uk software. Now i have lost the browser i have been using. Chrome is now the only browser i have. I liked the stock browser that originally came on my phone more. I didnt realise that i would lose it as i thought it was standard software.
Could anybody tell where i can download it from again?
Phil.

The way I read it, currently unlocking bootloader force closes camera. Is camera force close still there if I use custom Rom I.e. I won't be using Sony camera app but I think camera firmware will still be Sony.

I'm pretty sure they r, but I don't think z2 has anything to do with z1 bootloader.

Z1/something else. I know when I used it the Z1 had a forward slash and another model number but I don't remember what it was. SUS won't flash a different devices firmware anyway. It only flashes a firmware that matches the device that's currently hooked up.

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

You should need to thank god that you didnt receive 4.4 update. Because this update is full with bugs
Sent from my C6903 using xda app-developers app
I got it on mine. Unlocked Z1. But as other people have said. Just use flashtool. Doesn't alter anything its as safe as houses.

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.

It depends on update.
If it's only minor update, usually it's possible.
But big OTA updates won't work.
You'll get notification and be able to download but it'll show error as soon as you try to flash it.
You can use flashtool

Didn't quite understood this...
But yeah...I'm 99.9% sure OTA will fail on this.
Try...you can't lose anything...if you see error msg, nothing bad won't happen.
Just download ftf amd flash it through flashtool, exclude all wipes and you'll be on 4.4 with all data and accounts...
