can't wait for it!!!
I Think we should'nt create new topic for this update until it was out...
i can't wait to see it ... and i can't for someone to preroot it ... hope it works in games that will be the biggest success for SE
This is about confirming the rollout & not about the actual feature

Im in Canada if that helps
I got the same message. Took the chance and did the update OTA...it downloaded and started the install but after reboot it said "could not install update".
I'm running the .504 with xrecovery and JIT v.2.

Is it best to use SEUS then?
Sent from my X10i using XDA App
guys it has been discussed a million times already... that is just the .24 update all over again. A few people installed it...
What make you believe that SE can make it (on time) now? You should already know SE response times. LOL
Waittttt.......
I'm also got new update.
But failed to install.(THROUGH phone)
Now I don't have computer to update through seus.

How can i rebrand my phone to nttdocomo FW?
What is the Japan x10 code-????-????
Hi can we do a ota from stockfirmware with a unlocked bootloader or with seus?
Hey, don't do OTA with unlocked bootloader! DON'T. Many people have already bricked their arc and play by doing so, including me. There is a fix for this brick already, but warning beforehand!
Sent from my LT15i using xda premium
Update firmware through flashtool if you need to.
Sent from my LT15i using xda premium
Okay thanks for the early warning.
Welcome! Not to mention Sony Ericsson declines to fix phones with unlocked bootloader which are bricked. Not even if it got bricked through OTA. They will claim you responsible.

If you had your bootloader unlocked with testpoint method, you are free to OTA update with no issues, only phones unlocked through official sony method loose ability to OTA.

Yep OTA away, you will have no issues. If you deleted any apps from /system/app/ though OTA will fail. You must restore /system/ to default state
I haven't deleted anything I just took the brand new phone out the box linked up with Alejandrissimo lol used a pair of tweezer to bridge the test point cause I couldn't find a paper clip anywhere and when done check it was unlocked and put it back in the box.

Ok so i checked my firmware and its 3.0.A.2.184 android 2.3.2 it says i need to update this by pc so what do i use sony ericsson update service?
Update well i went ahead and used the pc updater and it flashed a newer firmware sucesfully so far so good no broken phone due to unlocked bootloader.
update and i can now confirm i have 4.0.A.2.368 android 2.3.3

Yes but you will only get updates for the region that rom is for! So for example if you flash the Generic/World version, you will only get Generic/World updates, And if you flash the nordic version you will only get nordic rom updates
Which one is the european sim free vershion? Any link.

So all of us with Verizon that are hoping for an update to use our phones the way they were meant to be, this official post from Sony makes me think we will never see them:
"Sony confirmed that the update will take place via PC Companion/SEUS and Bridge for Mac only. There will be no OTA updates and no notifications either. The reason behind this is that they want users to make a conscious decision when upgrading to ICS given that it is a significant revamp and that it “may impact performance in some user scenarios” given that it requires more resources."
- http://www.xperiablog.net/2012/03/30/sony-delays-xperia-android-4-0-ics-update-now-starting-from-mid-april/
Well, Verizon R800x's do not work with the PC Companion as we can't switch to to MTP mode with our stock phones. So am I misreading this article or are we really stuck with basic "buy from a store like Meijers or Wal-Mart" phone?
It does
From about October/Novmber-ish, SEUS works with the R800X.

Every time I connect it tells me to switch to MTP via USB Connection Settings, which R800x doesn't have? I must be a complete noob at cell phones. Ha.

First off uninstall PC Companion, it is trash for the R800x.
Then download & install this: http://sony-ericsson-update-service.en.uptodown.com/
(Sony Ericsson Update Service, a.k.a. SEUS)
I've used it (well, not that link, but the same program) a couple of times to reinstall .88 after testing a few things.
Pax
(Also www.wotanserver.com will probably also have the update within a month of it coming out...)
Since it's not OTA does this mean I can update without having to relock my bootloader? I know that OTA updates on an unlocked loader brick the device.

I'm on a custom 4.3 ROM, but was thinking of trying this out anyway. How did you get your update? I'm not sure if I can use PCC with a custom ROM.
I tried the Sony Emma flashtool earlier but it only had the 4.1 (.344) version

It was through PCC mate. I had my tablet connected this morning with no update, so it's obviously only been out for an hour or so.
Just installed, and I'm actually rather enjoying it! Alot better than what screenshots have shown.

Thanks. I'll try Emma again soon. Ironic really - Emma is a Sony developer tool which is meant to give updates a bit sooner than the usual methods
For those of us that are on Cyanogen, is there any way of finding out if the FTF has any important firmware updates in there?
I can rename the .370 FTF to ZIP and see all the sin files, but the vast majority I am unsure about.
Otherwise, I can always nandroid and do it that way

Relock your BL or wait for a ftf.
The problem is not using a custom rom and update with pcc (the rom doesn't matter but the kernel yes), it's when your bl is unlocked you can't update via SUS/PCC no more.

Emma has the 4.2.2 version despite the fact is says 4.1.2. I used Emma and it worked fine for me, though I didn't get my correct region (I'm in Canada and it gave me a UK firmware)

Once the FTF is out and about is there a way of knowing what we need to flash (and perhaps how) to not affect our existing custom setup?

When you flash a ftf file with flashtool, deselect DATA in the wipe section (box in top right corner). That will preserve your data when you flash.

Ok, sounds like a good compromise
When someone uses PCC to download the firmware, is a local copy stored?
Just wondering what the chances of getting this file are!
I like everything is this update, except the recent apps tray. Swiping away should always be 'swipe across' not 'swipe up or down'.
Few new features might have been nice, but can't complain. At least it's arrived!
It also has the thumb keyboard!

Make sure you read the service information of the update and make sure it says 10.3.1.C.0.136. If it doesn't then its not 4.2.2.

Getting pretty worried here. Have tried every day since this came out to get the OTA notification on my SPG512 I purchased from Sony Mobile in the US. Updater still says my .36 is the latest version even though Sony web site says .402 is available. I have tried using pc companion too and still no luck.
Is the rollout still going on or did they halt it? Anybody in the US get it yet?
I got the .402 update from the pc companion. I'm in the US and have the spg511. I got my tablet from Sony Mobile in the US as well. You may also want to try the Sony update services as well, since pc companion didn't work for Windows 8.1 it also gave me the update too.

I don't know how to retrieve the file when using the sony update services unfortunately. If you know how to do it or if someone else knows I would be willing to do it. I would assume it's a US version since I bought it from the Sony Mobile USA site.
I am in the same boat.
I have the 512 and no matter what I do, I am not getting the update. However, users of the 511 variant are reporting updates. There are even FTF for the 511 on xda but not for 512.
I have the 512 which I bought online from the Sony store. I live in Florida and check daily for the updated firmware. Nothing to date since I purchased it last month. I have used the software update on the tablet, as well as both the PC companion and Sony's updater from my pc...nothing so far. The website says that ...402 is the most recent firmware update, but then says I have the most up-to-date firmware.
Hmmmm.
is there any difference between the 511 and 512 besides internal memory? Why would 511s get the update and not 512s......

I would like to know too. It makes me feel bad about paying more but getting less support.
just flash the ftf file...
I would love to know how to do that.

In order to know how to do that you have to do something that, although very very difficult, is doable for you, if you really really make an effort:
Read the forums.
I have rooted my G Pads in the past.
Sent from my VS980 4G using Tapatalk
Yes, we know, you are the master, but flashing a FTF has nothing to do with rooting...
Does anyone have the ftf for the sgp512 that came out before the .402?
I didnt even get 402 yet and the have a newer release?

Finally got the updated firmware. Made a world difference. No more freezing. Just put an order for the new Tab S. Might have to cancel now.
