Fingers crossed as it seems to be the Kit Kat update based on the firmware number!!! :fingers-crossed:
Seems like a mistake. The first number (in this case, 14), represents the DreamBoard (interface name used inside Sony's dev thingy) belongs to Z1, Z1 Compact and Z Ultra. Just like Z, ZL and a few others, Tablet Z begins with 10. The second number (after the first "stop") is the one that represents a new Android version. Notice how it went from 1 to 3 (from 4.1.2 to 4.3, to 4 (4.3). KitKat should be, in theory, 10.4.x.x.xxx

Since the XZ and ZL got the same build number it may not be a mistake... but might be as well..... time will tell :fingers-crossed:

Haha. Yeah... Info says Z1 should get KK at the start of April, tops. DooMLoRD also mentioned Z might have it even before Z. Considering the Tablet updates always take a bit more to be released, and that the WiFi only versions takes even longer, I bet the SGP311/312 should get KK, following that logic, around the mid or end of April...

You might want it, but chances are you're not going to get it.
The fact that it is registered to PTCRB doesn't mean that
it will be available to SEUS. It's probably a test firmware.

It's being tested on X10.
So I doubt the X10 will be the first to get it, if at all.
Here's my 2 cent.
It's kinda weird since Android 3.0 is Honeycomb..
So i first thought maybe it's for the Sony S1/S2, but then again, it was posted for the X10i..

Sony ericsson does not release software with the exact code as android. For example: If our next update should be 2.3.3, than the update on PTCRB will have the form 2.3.3.x.A/B.x. It's just a code. I has to do with the Sony Ericsson software version numbers and not android version numbers (1.6,2.1,2.2,2.3,2.3.3,2.3.4). So it could be another 2.1 update and change maybe only the baseband, or kernel....or it could be the real deal regarding 2.3.3 update. It's just their way of making updates. So someone from XDA said that the update 2.3.3 will have the form on PTCRB like 3.0.1.G.xx. My guess it's the real and official gingerbread update. A few more days to wait.

I'd say it's highly unlikely there will be any new exploits.
Could this contain the fix for the dreaded overheating issue that's plaguing this device? I really hope so. The overheating is the only issue that's making me consider another device.

Id say you should return it if you have issues beside extensive 4k recording.
Heavy use untill it died, and i can only make it "overheat" with 4k camera work.
(Edit) Scratch that, just did another run with 1080 and just goto to 10m, now I am actualy alitle dissapointed.
As far as root goes, there will always be a way to exploit software. Just be happy we have the best minds on it.

I was testing the Xda app on my new d6503. In fact it is my first post on XDA. I've learned a LOT just be reading. Hopefully this new firmware fixes the 4k recording issue and low volumes (notifications and speaker) . I get an "unknown error" immediately after I start recording in 4k. Once a firmware is certified does that mean it will be made public via OTA or PC companion? If so, how long does it normally take from certification to rollout ?

I ordered mine to Australia from Hong Kong, it arrived and had an update to 17.1.A.2.55 out of the box, after a few hours of tinkering I connected it to my PC and installed some of the Sony Mobile Companion software which notified me I had another update to 17.1.A.2.69.
I couldn't tell you what I noticed to be different as I had only had it for 2-3 hours, most of which consisted of downloading most my old apps and signing in etc.

While I agree that the update will probably be released in the next few weeks, PTCRB certification only tests for compliance to mobile (cell) network standards and is only a small part of Sony's certification process. Therefore it does not guarantee a particular firmware version will be released.

Sony/E6853/E6853:6.0/32.1.A.0.X
Only a minor version change.

Sony has 6.0 test builds already, operators should be getting them for acceptance tests.
I'm not personally testing them since I'm "stuck" with retails devices at the moment and no sorry I can't tell you how to get it.
I see. So do you think we will get "concept" version of 6.0 just like Z3 and Z3C soon?
I'm receiving an update now...don't know what it is yet!
Z5C was on 6.152 and as of yesterday is now on 6.200
My Z5P on 6.170, so the new update might be 6.200, putting everyone on the same version.

Check Sony's developer's website for instructions on how to unlock your BL and flash AOSP 6.0. I would just wait though. It's rumored to be officially released OTA in a month or two. Then you wouldn't need to lose your DRM keys.

I think Sony may hold off and move to a once yearly now. There have been no substantial Z6 leaks and we usually see something within a month before MWC.

Huh? How do you come to that conclusion?
I guess the update will be with us either this month or next month. Either way we get it soon. The phone works fine ATM so there's no rush.
At this stage every year we usually see a leak of sufficient substance to show a phone will be released. So far nothing. All the leaks are just rumours.
Also at the start of last year Sony was asked whether they were going to move to yearly.... They said 'not yet' (the Z3+ then came out.)
If anything, the Z6 will be the same as the Z5 lineup with a change of SoC. Design change will be later in the year.
Any news? Does we get MM before or after MWC?
