Xperia Z users new updated available

[hush66]

To be frank, I got no idea man!
It's a sinktel set and I rooted for the sake of root explorer and titanium backup.

Unlocking bootloader is an intentional action (you need to go to a Sony site to enter your IMEI and get an unlock code). Most probably, your bootloader is still locked.

It's strange that you still have root after you updated to 10.1.1A.1.253. Many users at XDA have reported root was lost after the update and the previous rooting methods no longer work.

I use titanium backup to freeze the update center and no more update nagging screen prompt. I have already rooted my xperia z and already done everything swee swee liao using this CUSTOM THEME specially make for 10.1.A.1.434 for my xperia z so update is a big no no for me

Looks like the security flaw by using the service menu is resolved. now I cant activate the service menu from locked screen

i dont really care if it's 4.1.2 or 4.2.2 but many bugs are resolved in this update. most importantly, the user experience and interface is greatly improved....

Agree. I am fine for loosing the root Jr this firmware upgrade is worth.

actually when i got my arc in 2011, i reckon root is a must to enhance the experience the software. when i switch to xperia s, toward the last 6 months of ownership, i realised the software had improved quite a fair bit and hence root is not required.

then come xperia z and i rooted when the exploit is out, but i flashed back to stock because i dont need the need of root anymore. Sony Mobile is delivering a stable software for the mass public now... guess we call that progressive improvement.

does it solved the camera issue?

 

[scubyti]

does it solved the camera issue?

Agree with you cos last time they are consider quite new to Android so now they have made tremendous improvement for their firmware which deliver user-friendly and stable firmware for all users.

Please connect your phone via PC Companion and do a repair.

like 1 of the reply
do a repair
it will then download the latest software

 

[carlover76]

Even for my Xperia Z, there is no issue after updating but just feel that I should also do a PC Repair to wipe off all previous data and installed apps in order to enjoy a clean firmware from the start.
