You can try Generic Nordic Rom, it's light and fast, as I heard

C6903 ROMs are NOT usable with the C6902.
You need to get a ROM specific for the C6902.

Yes.
(There are small differences in radio hardware between the C6902 and the C6903, which is why the software is not exchangable)

I'm not familiar with the differences between the XZ models (I'm on a Sammy GS2 atm). But the fact that crossflashing works for the XZ, doesn't mean it will work for the XZ1; for example, I can't flash i9100g ROMs on my GS2, because even though they are the same model, the internals are different (though the GS2 example is an extreme case).
Of course you are free to try crossflashing the C6902/C6903. Perhaps you won't break much, but you'll probably won't have a working radio (in other words: no calls, no texts, no data). Or you might brick the device entirely.
Personally, with such an expensive device as the XZ1, I wouldn't risk it and stick to C6902 ROMs until we (=the community) know more about the devices.

When will my Z1 get 4.3/4.4 update?

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...

Upgrade/downgrade...

Hi,
I am thinking of flashing the 4.4 upgrade to my z1 to see if the Bluetooth issues that I had on 4.3 will be resolved. My question is -
If I upgrade to 4.4 and I am still having Bluetooth issues, will I have any problems downgrading back to 4.4.2?
Any help will be appreciated!
P.S. I don't need to have root access!
Yes because you cannot downgrade from 4.4 to 4.4.2, they are the same
If you mean downgrading to 4.2 or 4.3, it should be fine (AFAIK)
Remember there was the loss of IMEI going from 4.3 to 4.2, so I suggest only downgrading to 4.3

Hi gregbradley
Thank you for your reply,,,
Sorry I meant downgrade from 4.4.2 to 4.2.2...
I have tried the upgrade to both .290 and .136 (4.3) and back again to .257 (4.2.2) and did not suffer any IMEI loss.. Does this mean that I was just lucky or?

Alan

That's your choice. Vodafone UK will come with some bloat, but you can remove that with root.

Im in In the Southern part of Africa and at some point i was running a UK ftf and Netherlands too. What i was never sure of though was the labeling of network coverage. As in here it is LTE but the UK ftf i was using would say 4G. Anyway point is ftf from other country would work.

Yeah, I remembered you
You won't have any problems
And there's no difference which rom you choose. Just being Rom C6906 is enough
Whether me from Iran or you from South America with C6906 could use the same Rom
