Hi guys, I am on 10.3.A.0.423 and just got the warning in Sony Pc Companion that a new update is out!
Hope it fixes the minor lags.
Hope it is not a bug too, because I havent seen this new update being reported anywhere.
My customization number is 1270-5695.
So what is the update version?

Strange... I updated the phone, but it still is on 10.3.A.0.423.
Any way to check if another thing has changed?
PS: I have never flashed anything on it, I always used sony pc companion to update my phone.

Well, it is the same version. I dunno if it is the same version with bugfixes. I dont know how to check that.
But the minor lags seems to be gone, although it may be a placebo effect because I just turned my phone on.
I will use my phone more to see if it has improved anything.
you were using the wrong kernel for your 4.2.2 because it happens to me when i flash other kernel or flash custom rom the sony companion will give me the update as a new update but in fact it's the same.

Even if I have NEVER flashed anything on it?
I've never even rooted my phone.
I opened a lot of apps, games, made a call, browsed a bit, and still no sign of lag or whatsover in the album or anything.
Will test more to see if it really fixed that.
Guys, I am tired of test my phone!
The lags really seems to be gone!
Must be a bugfix update!
Please someone else test to confirm!

Now it would be interesting to get the fixes that this same firmware have.
I've just updated. It's still .423, but the Customization Number changed from R2B to R3B

Nice. Didnt notice that. >: )
Any way to get a list of what has changed? Or maybe it is just the lagfixes, since the build number remained the same.
am currently updating as we speak
It is nice to see Sony making hotfixes this fast.
Actually, EMMA does not know about this update, so it's probably just an app update for the HK region installed by PC companion instead of through OTA...

Nothing in Oz.
I can confirm that the lag is gone, from what I can see till now, from everywhere. There is still a semi lag in the list where I choose Widgets. But with the former 4.2.2, the lag there was bad. I am still installing apps on my phone and after that I can test correctly. Now there is no lag on Lockscreen Widgets, before when I slided down the Widget, I got lag, now it's smooth. I tried hard to make the main screens and Drawer pages to lag and 0 result. So Sony hat down with this update.
No update in The Netherlands yet

Did you install the DT update? If so, you will be prompted that an update is available. If you do it, it will install the same ROM but you will lose ROOT and DT.
If you load back the original kernel.sin file from the .024 Global NAM firmware and run SEUS again, it will tell you have the latest software.
So dont update now by SEUS
flash kernal.sin is better because SEUS remove root access
There arent any update for mine :S
Can't confirm.
No update yet.

Wasn't available in Uruguay through PCC 2 hours ago before i took it to the service. Will have it back on Monday, hope the update is available and rooted by then.
Does this update change anything besides adding MT feature and removing JIT and root? Because I already implemented this onto .024 with Bin4rY's method.
So, anything new besides MT? I don't think SE released a changelog, right? They never do...

Dualtouch in browser and google maps, isn't that enough for you??

in-call volume any better?
hrmmz i did the flash update for dt or mt but i do not see a difference, i download multitouch tester app and i do touch twice and get a 1 and 2 and i can pinch spread etc.. so im assuming it works, on home screen i can pinch in and all three home screens will appear as smaller windows kinda like the browser pages do. So is this the dual touch we expect?? I notice no difference in browsers.
I just checked SEUS running CDA 1234-4820 X10a 2.0.2.A.0.24 and there IS and update. I did not update until someone can confirm that we can root the new update?
I can NOT confirm if this for DT or not.
Hello all, my phone just recieved updates via PCC (I was previously on 4.2.2). I upgraded and found that the build number is also 423, however more smooth system, espicially the album lag seems to be fixed.
I provide you the ftf link of new .423 HongKong Firmware. This is not uploaded by me (damn speed), but a friend from another forum.
http://pan.baidu.com/share/link?shareid=3475709745&uk=4079996535
This link is from China and I am not sure about the speed.
According to some findings by Applo, it seems that the new release does not fix anything.

i recall in initial 4.2.2 scrolling in settings was laggy and horrible.
is it still laggy and horrible to scroll?

Sorry for being off topic, but, for the love of God, it's LAG with no plural. Just like you wouldn't say two glasses of waters.
It's not a real firmware update, just an update of the customization. Your customization version will have changed from 1270-5695_R2B to 1270-5695_R3B. This just means that Sony has changed something to the bundled apps or the customized settings.
Some weeks ago, this happened to the 'Generic NL' customization too. After updating, the Box app was pre-installed.

You're welcome
The core firmware (basically everything except the bundled apps and the resource overlays) stays the same as long as the build number doesn't change. Only the parts that are specific to the 'Generic HK' customization can be changed by the update.
If you look at the update XML file for 'Generic HK', you'll see that the latest firmware image (for Sony PC Companion and Sony Update Service) is swVersion 10.3.A.0.423 with cdfVersion R3B, while the latest delta update (OTA update) is still swVersion 10.3.A.0.423 with cdfVersion R2B.
I just downloaded this FTF (Generic HK 10.3.A.0.423 R3B) and compared it to the previous version (Generic HK 10.3.A.0.423 R2B).
These are the only differences:
build.prop: 'ro.semc.version.cust_revision=R2B' changed to 'ro.semc.version.cust_revision=R3B'

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.

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!

I also am looking for the sgp511 ftf file
I wil try to make one following the instructions on xda.
I have made a FTF according to this tutorial: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2334653
- Device: SGP511
- Build number: 17.1.A.2.36
- Android version: 4.4.2
- Customization version, region, branding: Didn't understand how to find out this stuff exactly. Looked in the service menu etc., but there were different numbers...
It's a normal SGP511 without carrier branding, and it is a model for the countries IT,FR,EN,PL,NL,DE, so I suppose it's kind of European firmware version. Or global???
- Download link: http://ul.to/eqlrc7oc

Because other users then knew that they only have to wait until the .55 firmware is released for their region! (And must not exchange their devices.)
