Hi guys,
I have a Sony Xperia XZ (F8331) and my current firmware is 39.2.A.0.442 with my customization being 1304-9025_R6C which corresponds to Customized IBE.
From what I can see on XperiCheck, Customized IBE is already on version 41.2.A.2.199 but I’m yet to receive an OTA upgrade.
I know I can flash with Flashtool, but I have previously received OTA updates including those with a bump on OS version (MM to Nougat 7.0) so my question is… what possible reasons are there that can be preventing me from getting this specific OTA upgrade? BTW, I'm not rooted.
Thanks in advance!
are you rooted?

Not rooted, and not rooted as well when previous OTA upgrades were received (of course)
Hello, if you are customized IBE you must recevie the OTA , connect the phone to computer and open Sony Xperia companion and you shoud recive the update....then update.
Another way is reset the phone to factory and you will recive via OTA, but you will lose all the data .

Some receive instant OTA , others slower, ( i rember something about first few days only some receive ota, and the next 15 days alll get the ota.)
Also can you post a screenshot with the customized ibe?

Sure, there you go (and 15 days have passed, I believe).
So is something weird, there's no 39.2.A.0.422-R6C for your customized IBE

That's odd... no 39.2.A.0.442 on XperiCheck but I did get that one through OTA, and other customizations have it on XperiCheck (e.g., Customized BLX)
Also, just checked Xperia Companion and it says device is up to date. Any clues?
Hmm, I have an F8332 and the latest update available for that is 41.2.A.7.8. It won't install on mine for some reason (verification step fails everytime), Sony says just to wait and it'll likely work in a couple days.

Hi.
Today, I activated a Z3, which was laying around for half a year, or so...
It is still on Android 4.4.4. Why I don´t get an ota update?
Bootloader is still locked.

Check the service provider... It might be possible that they hasn't released LP or an incremental upgrade yet.

Hi there
I am still on build NXT - L29C636B193 with June secuirity patch.
I have the dual SIM L29 4gb gold variant. I am in the UK.
Still waiting for Nougat. From reading around it seems that almost everyone has already recieved the official OTA...
I have also seen people manually flashing the OTA but I am worried I may lose my warranty and make certain apps like Android Pay unavailable.
All advice is appreciated
Thanks:laugh:
If you want to have warranty, stay at stock.
There is a major difference between nougat and mm (in look and performance for me). I dont need my warranty because - 1) ive bought it in china , 2) what does warranty cover? if i crash screen - warranty is worthless, if i crash software - i can fix it by myself - so its useless...
I ve swaped soft for european L29C432B320 from DL-00 and i dont care about OTA or some****.
Just flashed, rooted and using as always. For me root is necessary, so warratny is useless anyway.
The only thing is that if something bricks your phone like e.g. melting in pocket (vide SGS Note7 ) there is nothing you can do...
So - for me - just manually flashed nougat and root it and its ok.

So can I do this without losing warranty or rooting?
Because I want things like Android Pay to still be intact.
Thanks

Are you in Europe as well?
Because I want to know if my imported Huawei Mate 8 will receive an official OTA from Huawei...
Thanks
I receive the Ota only to the converted C432.
On original C636 no Ota Updates
Can I load the latest update onto the device so that the system update menu will recognise the update?
Maybe use dload or somrthing?
Can someone point me in the right direction?
Thanks

Hi there
When I contacted the European chat helper in the Hi care app, they said that my model the NXT - L29 will not get OTA updates while i am not in Southeast Asia?
I don't know if this true as it sounds bizarre, most devices are still updated when not in their home land.
What model number is yours?
Thanks
checksum error
Hi there,
the update appears and it starts to download, but most of the time, I get a checksum error. Only 2 times (out of perhaps 8 downloads) it downloaded properly, so far. The device restarted and got stuck at the "Your device got unlocked and can't be trusted." and "The device is now booting" prompt. I let it rest for more than 3 hours, but nothing happened.
So: none of the categories in the poll apply to me: I seem to get the update, but cannot install it.

Are you also on the L29?
Which country are you in?
Did you root or unlock the bootloader?

I finally figured what was wrong: I had a bad (as in not accepted by the system) update in the dload folder of the sdcard. Thus even after flashing TWRP via adb or the stock firmware upgrade, that was tried and denied, first.
Once I removed that folder, I could successfully install TWRP and the latest CM/Lineage build (alpha-4).
To actually answer your questions: Yes, CH, and yes, bootloader unlocked.

Hi there
On the firmware downloader app, a new update has been launched but it is B330? Emui 4.1?
Take a look below

I had manually uppdated to B521 and tried to update to B563 trough the Firmware Finder without success.
Then I downgraded to B193, tried update to B563 and failed.
Updated to B211 then and did factory reset. After restart I got new firmware showing in system update in settings.
So I´m guessing it´s official OTA update as I didn´t update through Firmware Finder.

I was on L29C185B180, and the 321 update (4.1) just hit my phone on Thursday.
I recieved my OTA update today on from NXT L29636211 to b563 im in the UK with China dual sim international Mate 8 purchased from wonda mobile. Went very smoothly. Now enjoying official Nougat.
My Xperia XZ Dual was with Chinese firmware originally. In order to use Google services, months ago I flashed the HK firmware (39.0.A.1.250) whose Android version was 6.0.1 to my phone.
Later when the Android 7.0 was released, I noticed that my phone couldn't receive firmware update anymore. It does show "a new update is available" in the Xperia Care app, but when I tap to update, it always says that "your device is already in lastest version".
Is the update somehow relatived to the IMEI, so I cannot receive any push of my current firmware anymore? And what's more important, is there any way to get an incremental update, instead of a whole new 7.0 flashing?
download new 7.1.1 ftf and flash with flashtool, many times told, search before post next time !

immediately upon reboot it says, "Verifying system update" gets about 50% of the way with the progress bar, then restarts and I get the failed update message.
Apparently Sony has had this issue in the past and laid blame at the feet of Google's update servers.
Maybe it has something to do with the firmware on my phone. Bought it off eBay last year and it has a Myanmar ROM. Never had an update fail before though. It's not rooted or bootloader unlocked or anything.
EDIT: Gave up on the OTA, never got it to work and instead updated mine by using Androxyde's Flashtool.
I have problems with the updates, my device only stays in B360 and I can not update from Firmware Finder :crying:
You will have to use dload.
BLN-L24C567B366 is the current version I can see on FF site.

Is correcto, but I can't, because I have already followed the steps in firmware finder but I get an error when analyzing the downloaded package.

That's true
Seems to be rolling out fast -- My fresh-out-of-the-box-yesterday 6x got a B365 notification last night. Over wifi, btw (still haven't thrown a SIM card into it yet). I suppose I'll let it update at some point soon -- what could go wrong ?
to place the sim card implies a problem with the updates?

Nope, didn't mean that at all. Was just saying that that to show that it has nothing to do with carriers (which I guess we know) - it's coming pure OTA via the internet.

But still a sim card may be needed to register the IMEI on network to get the OTA. It may get without sim but i have not received any till date on any of the honor phones and ota shows after couple of minutes of sim registration
Just saw an update notification this morning, its installing now. I got mine right before thanksgiving (and installed an update then too).
I'm actually very pleased with this phone and the firmware. They let you uninstall all the 3rd party crapware and most everything else (google crapware) can be mostly disabled.
I just wish I had the lineageos email program, I don't like the honor one as much.

Interestingly, my wife's 6x, which she has been using on mobile network since early November, is still sitting at B360. So far, there's no update available. Strange...

OTAs are pushed in phases, sometimes it takes a long time for an update to arrive
