Hi All...I don't want to be the bearer of bad news but...
According to a Sony Representative, he said that our phone [ Xperia SP ] won't be receiving the much awaited "KitKat" Update
you can check it out for yourself right here

Note: That translates to "I got confirmation from Sony that the Xperia SP won't be receiving the Kitkat update"
This is one of the reasons why I am getting the Z1c I mean Sony always forgets the Non-Flagship phones
I mean look the Galaxy Nexus has a KitKat Update!!! and ours doesn't?
already posted
Already posted and you have to believe that we can't trust these man. I remember one of them said that we will have Xperia Windows Phone almost year ago and till now, SONY still don't use Windows Phone OS.

so what the fu..ss?
Direct quote from the article listed in OP
"Once such thread from 18 February 2014 was asking about the availability of the Android 4.4 KitKat"
That was weeks ago. It's still listed under investigation, so honestly, I wouldn't put too much weight on this post. That was almost 2 months ago and no official word. Yes, that person later said that he/she got "confirmation", but from who? If it were true, the websites would be updated.
We'd all be best to stop speculation and rumors to wait until Sony's press officially says something through their proper channels, not an AMA on some random site.
Yeah it was written on april 1st lol

I don't mind if we don't get Kitkat, but i wish they at least fix install lag in 4.3.

Why r they kept using the UK news for US version
And how exactly did the examiner get that a tweet from Samsung UK would have anything to do with T-Mobile US? They based their article on incomplete information and conjecture.
Real journalism is dead

Im with you man, BS or not who gives a damn. Even the flamers hope its real as do we. If it happens it happens. I just want the source code, could care less about the actual update.
Others are reporting that samsung started the role out today in the UK and we all should have it by the end of the month.

That's not what that article says at all! Unless by "we" you mean you are in the UK and you are talking to all of the UK users here, which are none, because we are in a US phone forum.
It's Samsung UK tweeting that it's started rolling out today and all Samsung UK handsets should have it by the end of the month.
Haven't we been through this like 10 times already?!
Thread Closed
So this evening I was browsing my Facebook when I noticed a comment made by Samsung Mobile. Here is their post:
"What is 10.1 inches of Android 3.0 Honeycomb delight? Only a few days away from launch! Sign up NOW for the LATEST info - http://pub.vitrue.com/HNs"
Here is a direct link to the page:
https://www.facebook.com/SamsungMobileUSA
Hopefully we will get some more information about price, etc. Would also like to know if Best Buy will be selling tablet on launch. (Sure they will, but would like confirmation)
I didn't see this posted anywhere on the forums including AndroidCentral.... hope this helps!
Well, nevermind I guess. When I read that post, I interpreted "few days" as just three or four days. I understand the launch date was supposedly confirmed for June 8th, but that's a little more then a "few days" .... would have been better worded as a couple of weeks.
Was hoping this was referencing to an early launch date.
15 is the new 3.

Well this might effect the official launch of the 10.1 and 8.9 and other samsung galaxy items
Read here --- http://crave.cnet.co.uk/mobiles/apple-forces-samsung-to-hand-over-galaxy-prototypes-in-legal-spat-50003870/?tag=mncol;txt
I think there is a zero chance of Apple being able to postpone Samsung's product launch.
Though Samsung could delay their own launch if they don't have 3.1 quite ready or are trying to get TouchWiz on at the last minute or something or some other last minute tweak. Kinda worried they canceled the May 24th event.

Actually, this may very well be relevant. Perhaps it's a sign that they are readying the release. Who knows for sure.... It updates us on the status of the overall roll out. Whether or not it applies to Samsung as they seem to march to the beat of a different, unknown drummer is another story.
Thanks for the update.

LOL, yes just a generalized update concerning GB as an OTA from Sprint.
I am sure given my signature and number of posts; that you'd unserdtand I know where I am posting
Thank you for not disappointing me; I knew for sure I'd catch a flame or two... hehehe
Thank you Rob for coming to my defense
Maybe now that both of Sprint's favorite sons, the EVO brothers, got the GB update they can finally release it to the red headed stepchild.

Hope it's not true... Can't believe that we have to wait more that 3 months for update, and Z1 that have same specs that our phone will receive first a month before
Enviado desde mi Z1 Compact
The original leaked said z1c at March but there is also some other rumors said z1c will receive it faster now. There isn't any real official schedule yet so actually we have to wait..... I think Sony will tell in the very beginning of 2015.
Fake.
I hope is a fake because I can't wait again three months too
I just share with you that I find

Just spoken to Sony and the word on this leak is
Not from Sony as there is no planned date for any rollout yet
And when I asked if the ota would be timed round release of the z4.
Sony became very evasive on the matter.

Hard to believe. Thanks to the rapid release cycle those phones are not THAT different. I'm not a developer or anything but with Sony's very light skinning this should really go faster.

As you said there is not that much of a difference between Sony's series, so by updating the new ones faster than the older as z1 or z2 they ate just trying to sell more z3 and z4
It is marketing

XDA Bounty on 10/2014 now one year ..... OK ?? Go on
If This is suppose to be permanent why didn't he reboot the device to prove it.
I thought the same thing but he did power it on himself. That's what I was thinking. It didn't look like a reboot.
This wouldn't be a developer device running retail firmware????
Sorry but I'm finding this to hard to believe.
I thought we would never see root.
Man this can't be real I just gave up my note4 a week ago for this edge.
