I have the stock firmware with no modifications made to it.

can i find stock android or pure android compatible for z5 dual , also i d like to upgrade its os to android 8 or 9 , thank you in advance
Use Xperiafirm in Flashtool. Android 8.1 maybe, 9 is future wishful thinking. Use Google or XDA Search ...
As far as I know, Sony will not provide Oreo for their Z5 Series

Sony has taken support from this device. 8.1 or later will not come.
It's too early to talk to the developer.
Dear XDA Community,
Sorry, this is probably a newbie question, but is it possible to update Android version when running a custom ROM such as Pixel Experience? To be more specific, I am still running MIUI on my Pocophone F1 and I am looking to flash something different soon, but I have noticed that there is a Beta version out for PE to be run on Android 11. The question is how do I upgrade if I am running Android 10 and the developers have not yet sent an update out? Who knows whether there will be an option to upgrade to Android 11 if Pocophone X2 is their priority now. Thank you in advance.
Hello mate,
Hopefully I have read your question correctly.
If a custom ROM is released for Android 11 you won't need the official system to be 11 first as the ROM itself will be built from/based on 11 so it will update your system accordingly when flashed.
Example, Nexus 5x ended official support on Android 8 but custom ROM builds took it to 9 and now 10.
As long as you follow the flashing instructions supplied by the ROM of choice you should be golden.
Hope that makes sense
I have my pixel 4a rooted, that's it. no roms or anything. When the files are released from google for android 12, can I just flash like I did the rooted version of android 11? Would it be worth it to wait for a rooted version of android 12 (ie any ETA for how long until someone roots it?). And does anyone know if there will be a few android 12 based roms coming to our phones? Thanks everyone.
hey i cant seem to find any answers about this on the internet and i have no idea on which forum should i post this on my choices were the xiaomi.eu, orangefox but i have choose to reffer to you guys and i hope to meet some nice people. Im using a redmi note 9 pro (joyeuse) with the latest xiaomi eu rom
running android 11 with OrangeFox recovery. and this phone is about to get (its not out yet) its android 12 update. i need help updating it because i don't want to brick my phone. Also the reason why im not posting this in my phone's dedicated forum is becase the story should be the same for all the other people updating from android 11 to 12
So i have no idea if the version of orangefox recovery that i have supports android 12 (im running R11.1_2 STABLE) the website mentions nothing about either android support. there is also a BETA version of OrangeFox for my phone which is R11.1_3_4_A12_FBEv2 in the notes of this BETA version it says "This is an (FBEv2) Android 12 (and higher) only release. Do NOT use with Android 11 or earlier"
now lets say that the miui 13 update with android 12 is out. what do i do then if i want to update? more specificly in which order should i update the phone? should i first update my recovery and then the rom? or in reverse? or is there a way to update them both at the same time? there is also a possibility that by the time the miui 13 update comes out OrangeFox might come out with a new stable version that will support both android 11 and 12 at the same time so that will completely eliminate my problem.
Moving from Android 11 to Android 12 is UPGRADING, not updating what simply patches existing Android 11.

if you want install the official update for your device you MUST NEED install official firmware first using miflashtool, otherwise you have to wait than eu team release the upgrade for your device
My current version is OOS 11.0.13.13.KB05BA, which is Android 11.
Now I get offered the above mentioned update. Is this just a small Android 11 update or an upgrade to 12? Because I don't want to upgrade to 12 (yet).
And second question: I guess I can't get security updates anymore unless I update to 12, right?
Thanks.

Hello!
1. C 33 is Android 12 based firmaware. Don't update if you don't like A12.
2. A11 firmwares are not updated anymore, so no security updates for them.
