Oh, just noticed that you meant the update was available via OTA. The 02 Oct update was rolled out via PC Companion.

Guys.. you all should give it a try if you're willing to go for custom ROMs... Android 4.4

Quite stable, I think it can be used as a daily driver...

assuming your motherboard was affected and they need to replace it (with reference to my old Acro S proposed costs)... $480 = buy the Z1

also it's IP57... up to 1M underwater to 30 minutes only do take note!!

took the phone out and plugged in to my laptop. device got red led for a moment then suddenly no more. laptop detects the device and said drivers successfully installed.
however, i got to keep plugging in and out to get the red led and it will only be on for like 3 sec. what should i do now?
