Using the customized CE1 customized firmware, I just upgraded to .179 and noticed I lost my sony clock 2, it reverted to the original sony clock and the option for the widget is no longer there. Have other people had this problem and is there a fix without rooting my phone?
Still there on my .179 FW. Try factory resetting.

So here is my issue:
I have flashed a UK based .244 rom on my device awaiting the official push from t-mobile.
My dev: 6606 (tmo var) running UK based 224 rom
Tonight i receive notification that an update is available on my device.
Attempting to install reboots device and fails to install.
Updates states ver 10.3.1.a.0.244 which my device is already running (just a diff. region 6603 based rom)
Notification persist. Anyone know how to resolve this issue?
Should i rollback (factory) and install or is there a fix to install US patch or trick device into thinking update was completed.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Ty ^.^
performing factory reset now, hopefully i get update notif. and everything goes smoothly.
only thing i changed in old rom (uk .244) was build.prop device info to 6606 from 6603, for acurate sysinfo screen.
well it looks the factory reset didnt rollback to stock FW.
Looks like ill have to attempt a rollback via recovery or flash stock FW via recovery.
@ work now so well c.
Use pcc or sus to update.

Hi All,
I updated a friends Sony Xperia Z (C6603) to KitKat via OTA and after the update the sound is no longer working.
Calls can still be made, however no sound is coming out in apps such as YouTube, Spotify and the stock Music player.
Phone has been restarted, volume has been checked, both didn't help.
Version: 10.5.A.0.230
Any ideas?
Thanks.

Try reflashing the firmware
I have the same issue.
I was using custom roms for a long time, but then I decided to go stock after use eXistenZ 7.0 for a few weeks.
But after update my XZ to stock .230, my media sound doesn't work. However, system sound works, like ringtone and alarm.
In phone calls I can listen the caller voice but my voice can't be heard on the other phone.
TOO STRANGE.
A workaround for this issue is downgrade to 4.2.2. Any update above this make this issue reappear.

Try with clean install via Flashtool, it will probably fix that issue. :good:

I tried already.
First I tried to reflash the .230 (4.4), then I did a downgrade to .101 (4.3) and both didn't work.
And then I finally tried the .244 (4.2) and this one solved the problem.
As I said before, any firmware released after this one breaks the audio.

It sounds like software problem. Did you try with clean install, not update to KK? Are you using custom kernel? Try with this (do not uncheck any option when you flashing via Flashtool):

It is a software problem, thats for sure, since works on previous versions
but IDK how to solve it.
I always do a clean install.
I bought a unbranded XPERIA SP two months ago and I am still stuck on Android 4.1.2 and the phone has the build number 12.0.A.1.211
Using the OTA and desktop update I keep on getting that my phone is up to date.
I looked up the customization number with *#*#7378423#*#* > 'Service info' > 'Software info' > 'Customization Version') and it is 1273-0043_R2A
Using XperiaUpdateChecker.exe and Google I cannot find anything about the customization number.
Based on advice from some users I rootded the phone and changed the Customization Version and still did not get the update.
How do I upgrade to the latest Android 4.3 version?

Thank you. This was helpful. I am now using the latest firmware and Android 4.3.
Unfortunatly I made a backup using Sony PC Companion and it does no longer allow me to restore all my files. So I have lost everything except pictures and the things Google saves, like contacts.!
For anyone reading this and want to update. Please do not use Sony PCC as a backup tool! Find some other way.

I had exactly the same problem. I used this guide to retrieve my data from the PCC backup:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=40593906&postcount=3
The procedure is quite tedious, because you have to basically extract one app at a time from the backup. But it works.
My Xperia SP has a problem: when running benchmark software, when updating multiple apps from the store and sometimes when running stock camera app, the screen turns reddish, slowly dims until it turns off, and the phone restarts, getting very hot in the process. From what I see it's not above 43 degrees, but I think that when it locks up the temperature monitor app also freezes so it doesen't exactly record the actual heat.
When the phone cools off, it's good to go, but until then it restarts all over if I try to use it.
I had this problem using Arch Xperia, CM 11, and a few other ROMS. Now I flashed stock 4.3 CE, using Flashtool, and I have the same problem.
The phone was bought second hand, so no warranty.
Can I do anything about it?
I saw this on my phone in the past but only way this happend to me was that:
1. I was on williamskernel (i dont know how it performes to another people but to me its quite unstable)
2. I was on alpha cm12 and that happened to me under load
btw on cm11 and stock for me ist perfectly stable, phone never crashed like that but when i play heavy games like portal then i have 45-55 degrees celsias .
If you have this problem on stock flashed by flashtool from PC i think that it may be a HW problem.
i had this problem in 4.3 .205 stock and other customs roms based on .205 kernel.
Now i am on .207 kernel with archxperia 1.0.5 and i havent experienced something like this.
Also im using undervolt to 1566 to avoid high temperature during gaming.
I think is your ftf , which one are u using?
I downloaded the ftf from here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2311964
Yesterday, when I posted my problem, I had 12.1.A.1.205_CE1 - JB 4.3
In the mean time, I decided to try 4.1.2 JB and flashed 12.0.A.2.254_CE .
This one seems to have worked fine in the last couple of hours. I tried to run as many apps as possible to determine it to restart, but it just warmed up a little and kept going. So it seems it's ok.
Also, I had an unlocked bootloader and before I flashed 4.1.2 I locked it back again. If that has anything to do with it.
The problem is that it askes for a system update and if I do it, it will probably take me all the way to 4.3, and maybe the same problems. That notification is so annoying
That sounds like a hardware problem. Is your phone in a case? Maybe it's restricting the airflow to the device.

download 4.3 using flashtool (devices/check updates) and try
Yes, it is in a case. But with 4.1.2. it doesen't seem to have problems anymore so I hope it's a software issue.

Will try this today. It should take me to 207, right? The phone OTA update service gives me an upgrade to 205, which I understand is problem-prone.
205 was alright, I think it was 201 that had problems. Still, it's probably best that you go for the latest firmware, which is 207.
Hi, i m using Z1 (C6903) for more than 2 years and recently after updating my phone to 14.6.A.1.236 (OTA) i see mobile battery drains so fast and tried reinstalling same version by downloading from XperiFirm and flashed but still by battery drains so fast not even 5 hrs. Is it a bug in this version ? and my keyboard (Xperia chinese keyboard) stopped responding and phone restarted and from that time Learn words and quick fixes (Text input settings) not working. Tried to uninstall keyboard update and rolled back but still the same problem tried to clear App data but didnt work out. How to fix all these problems. Tell me the solution ASAP as i m not able to use my phone as battery drains faster and not able to text easily.
I'm running that version on my unrooted Z1 with no such problems.
Make a backup of anything you want keeping, then try a factory reset, or do a full wipe and reflash the firmware.
I replaced the battery on my Z1 after 18 months or so as it was going bad.
