[Q] Xperia SP 4.2 ,4.3 And 5 Updates

Hello guys i was wondering when 4.2 update for the Xperia Sp wll be released by Sony.Also when is 4.3 and 5.0 comming ?

Sony is skipping 4.2.2 for the SP and it will get 4.3 soon. 5 isn't released and we will have to pray and hope that Sony will ever give us that update.

Thanks for your answer and it seems pretty logical that Sony skiped the 4.2.2 but Xperia Sp was designed as a Mid to High End device so i am pretty sure that we will have to put custom roms in it after 5.3
Right ?

As I said, I think we would be lucky if we even got 5.0. But lets hope FXP and other developers will still develop CyanogenMod and other popular roms for the SP.

I thought 5.0 was coming for sure from sony.. :crying:

How do you know Xperia T will get 5.0? It hasn't even been announced yet.

When i was going to buy a new phone i was between Xperia T and Xperia SP and i went with the SP (better proccessor , more recent device , larger screen , better ppi , Adreno 320)
And someone in the forum mentioned that its is more possible that Xperia T will get the 5.0 update than Xperia SP so i thought that was right ,,,,

We aren't sure if or when 5.0 will be released and I'm 100% sure that the SP will get the update rather than the T.

Ok thats good to hear :laugh::laugh::laugh:

Stop making assumptions, no one knows if the SP or T will or not get 5.0, because it's not even released... 4.3 just came out. But I assure you won't get screwed by Qualcomm like in the S because they wouldn't drop support on the Moto X chip that quickly

[Q] Site/Source to download .FTF Stock Roms

Actually i asked this question in the ZR forum but unfortunately i got no answer ( low activity device :/ ) ,so i hope to get answer here
I'm new user to Sony ,What i'm used to do for my Samsung Galaxy W is that i download Stock ROMs from SamMobile.com and flash it via ODIN ,but i'm going to buy the Xperia ZR.
So now i understand everything about flashing FTF Stock ROMs for Sony from this Thread ,While i want to know if there is an alternative to SamMobile for Sony Devices ?
I mean from where can i download Stock ROMs for Sony devices for my country ?
,Thanks in advance

Yes, if your bootloader is locked. I suggest read stickies in general section. Look for Doomlord's and XperienceD's threads.

two different Xperia sp but same mac-adresse

Hi guys,
my gf recently bought a Xperia SP and for an unknown reason my SP and her's have the same mac-adresse and because of that the same ip-adresse when connected to the same wifi
Both devices have Existenz 4.0 installed and bootloader unlocked (on 3.3 the issue was there too)
So two questions:
- Is it possible that I accidentaly changed the mac-adresse of one device?
- What to do now? Contact Sony or try to change it manually?
I'm really confused

You can spoof your mac adress with apps but it would be best to bring both phones back to the store you bought it from and tell them whats wrong

thx for the fast answer
I contacted Sony support today but they only told me that this is only possible if I rooted my phone and because of that I get no support
So i repaired via Sony PC Companion and now my phone has a different mac-addresse^^
It seems that existenz is changing my mac-adresse
Guess I should post that in existenz discussion thread.

You can update 4.4.4 through PC companion or SEUS for Xperia phones. Sony also provide *.ftf os file for almost all devices on his official website. You can flash that with the help of Flashtool with bootloader unlocked.

Kindly don't follow Sony CC blindly. Just try to search by Developer world & than go to downloads on official website. But you must unlock your bootloader. Let see if I will get some time tomorrow than Surely will suggest you the link.

yes man i'm waiting on your lolipop too nice job on mOon one

For those who will try this Rom,you will lose all data if you don't backup it.

Always do back-up man , because it's worth too , and the dirty flash is always good to any rom you to install.
this rom will not delete your data also it's not ftf.

Not work button Previous. I did full Wipe ??? I did wrong, please.
