Lets hope they fix the wifi not working with the screen off which is what happens on the Nexus 4 as this will be a dealbreaker for me.

That's news to me - my wifi works with the screen off...

I hope so, updates are the only big concern that I have switching to Sony. I know that they are slow with updates on most other devices.

Heres hoping for screen clibration in it

Can't wait. Getting super odd battery readings periodically, especially in stamina mode

Odp: 4.2.2 is coming soon....
Someone knows, what new features will give a new firmware?

Lockscreen widgets will be the key feature added.

I'm not complaining at all, provided actual changes and fixes are included with the updates. However, lately it seems samsung is pushing one update after another with the exact changelog, so these end up being more of an annoyance than an enhancement.

Guys to keep track of latest firmware updates please check this link
Www.samsung-updates.com and select your device from dropdown list.
As most of you said the changelist is the same for recent updates and you can see it from that link.
Any of you find noticed a fix for battery drain in the latest updates?

Really? They have basically confirmed that they will be providing the next version of Android to the Z instead of just abandoning it in favour of supporting the newer flagships that are releasing soon.

Seriously??? Good news???? The Z was always going to get 4.3. Not getting it would have been disastrous.
It's a question of timing. When? This year? Next year?
The Z right now, more than anything else, needs a flipping update to sort out this buggy 4.2 crap laggy Rom.
Sometimes, I feel it has a mind of its own. I regularly pull my phone out of my pocket to discover strange goings on like mobile data off, Bluetooth on, so many apps open.
It's like it goes totally berserk sometimes.

But is is so easy to update to a Global 4.2.2. You are on XDA, that means you are not the average Joe, update with the tools the people over here provide us with.
Must whining and complaining infest every thread regarding updates? Even when good news is announced, the usual suspects surface to moan.
It's getting seriously boring now. If you're not happy, sell your phone and move to another manufacturer.

Sent from my C6603 using xda premium
Sure. The phone works fine without it. Just like it worked fine when everyone had the pitchforks and torches out because they thought Sony were taking too long over the 4.2.2 update. Look how rushing them then worked out. I would have waited longer to allow them more time to work out the slight kinks with 4.2.2.

Works fine for me. I did a 'dirty' update via PCC without any wipes. I only suffered slight lags in the stock launcher, so I swapped to Nova.
This isn't my point anyway. Any time updates are even mentioned, the same people appear to whine about the same things over and over. Complaints about 4.2.2 are nothing to do with this thread in any case.

It looks like Samsung is going to release uncompleted roms...
Today they started rolling out the S3 one that is missing Knox and interesting features from s4/note3....
The same looks for Note 2... maybe Mj5 was a release candidate...
They are going to give us just a "core" refresh, porting 4.3 to their touchwiz rom ... for compatibility with Gear.
Just my impressions.

Sony Z Play Edition

So I just saw that the Sony Z Play edition is now available. I can't confirm because the Play Store Link isn't usable in my country.
If this is true does it mean we can pull the core rom from the the Sony Z edition and use it to help CM etc?
It's only the Z Ultra. And yes, Z Ultra GPE software will run on the Z Ultra without modifications. Will also really speed up Z1 development. For the Z there's not that much of an advantage.
I can only find mention of a Google edition Z Ultra, not a Z.

Nope, and there's not much point. The Z is very easy to develop for (there already are fully stable KitKat builds) and has a lot of hardware that's similar to the Nexus 4 which helps a huge lot.

I have the t mobile xperia z and I was hoping that because its a stock rom from sony the bootloader can be locked cause its same kernel and stuff from sony.
made sense to just be able to flash it.
it sucks there is no international LTE version that suits the US t mobile with unlockable bootloader.
I talked to sony and they say t mobile locked the bootloader which doesn't make sense!
maybe I should do a warranty exchange and talk to sony before hand and ask to get another with LTE and unlockable bootloader.

So this 4.3 update Sony have blogged is coming this month....

It will be interesting to see if the 4.3 will fix all the "bugs" from the 4.2 update. I have downgraded to 4.1.2 since I need full screen / correct aspect ratio on MHL, real Tablet UI, and there were also quite a few language/UI errors in my region.
