Vodafone is done testing, we await the rollout... I can't post links, but you can check the article on Xperia Blog :)
[Xperia SP General] Levered:
Anytime we will get it...Vodafone has already done testing..now just sit down and wait update roll-out :D
[Xperia SP General] Patrol619:
Guys guys calm down. We don't know if other carriers completed the test. This is only Vodafone Australia, there are plenty of other carriers and brandings around the world. Correct me if I'm wrong.

[Xperia SP General] sco0ter:
No. They still have to be fully compatible with the carrier. Even though its not branded some will still be on Vodafone that rejected because of problems so your phone would have the same problems as a branded one
[Xperia SP General] spix123:
Why does vodaphone australia testing affect other SP's? It's not like they're the only provider in the world. The 4.3 update for Z has already been released but hasn't even been tested by them yet according to a screenshot on xperia blog.

Familiar with htc's kitkat update? The developer & unlocked edition's update rolled out before verizon US. Now what's your say to that matter?

Sent from my C5302
[Xperia SP General] sco0ter:
Maybe because the carriers were still putting on their bloatware and Carrier specific programs so that's why the Verizon one was held up. If HTC released an update before testing network compatibility then that's just irresponsible as what would have happened if all Verizon customers phones were rendered useless???? The same will probably happen with this Sony update, carrier specific updates could be released at different times. So what do you say to that matter???
[Xperia SP General] adfad666:
Rejoice!
[Xperia SP General] neXus PRIME:
They all have stable cores. Adding a few useless bloat apps doesnt DE-STABILIZE the OS... OS rolled out to international versions are generally stable (as stable as they will ever be i mean,) and the carriers just add a few bloat apks and some other minor stuff... nothing extraordinary... so yeah... they just punish their customers for choosing to stay with them. and even if something is messed up in fw .x1 , then sony pushes a fix .x2 to unbranded, and carriers just skip the .x1 and add bloat to .x2

Not rocket science exactly.

And november is a synonym for december - which is in fact a synonym for january '15.. :)
[Xperia SP General] dontknow773:
Why are that pesimistic. Sony simply did not prepare good fw on the first attempt, the second, or fourth,.... It might happen but I personaly think that when Sony will say 4.4 will be in SPs in march or april or whichever month it will be. I know they are late but i don't think you should flame them like this... They make great phones :)

[Xperia SP General] @non4:
Hah even if they did give us 4.4 it wouldn't be that soon, it's not cyanogenmod! But agreed everyone should just relax because 4.3 is on its way, I'm using the leak and they're not far off already. When I had optimus 4x we had the same deal people were complaining non stop even when we got a leak then the update came and people just started moaning for 4.2... It's just sad really. A manufacturer invests a lot on development teams, they will only support what is profitable which frankly I think is fair as long as the software in the box works.

The 4.3 update rollout took less than a week in all the models. I'm pretty sure there's another certification on the way, and the update itself will not roll out tomorrow or in the next week, mark my words.

The boss is right. Releasing an update for an existing phone will not make Sony money nor will it bring new customers. You could call it a good long-term strategy to build a good reputation - but that is not what counts. Sales numbers for the next quarter is what counts.
[Xperia SP General] anderledani:
What you are saying is demagogic, we are knowing a long time ago, that Sony wants to release the update, but it's again and again don't pass the tests.
[Xperia SP General] pm2lp:
Actually you are wrong sir, it's not only in the long term that sony loses reputation, it's happening right now. Every single day that passes without sony releasing the update they lose customers and money for several reasons.

We live in a era where the internet is the first resource for information and people rely on it to buy new stuff.. Now look at all the blogs, forums, social networks, everybody is cursing sony, calling them liars, and what not. For exemple, look at the xperiablog or the official sony mobile blog, in every single post, related or not with the sp, at least half of the comments are about that.. people who are looking for a new phone immediately put sony aside, the ones who have one right now are thinking about selling them and buying from another brand (and we have a few here in this thread).

I know here at xda people looking for a new phone usually don't post here in this type of thread, but I know other places where it happens and I guarantee you that many didn't buy an xsp due to the update delay, so yes, they are losing money.. and it's even worse if you think in the long term.
[Xperia SP General] Aadi:
I agree with the dude. Before we used to have atleast 40-50 people interested in update. Now the same few set of people comment and keep this thread alive. I guess people moved on.

Now for something rather serious:

Are you sure you want to update to 4.3?

I've been reading about how root is problematic in 4.3+, in the sense that SU makers are being forced to go through amazing hoops and loops just to provide a *partially* working solution...

If the situation with 4.3+ root is still problematic, I think I will stay with my current 4.1 instead... I have apps that I *need* that simply won't work without root...

You need to go to backup and turn Google backup off for your account. Then factory set the phone sign back up in your account and it will work. Its something that Google backup downloads that stops the led working with 3rd party apps.
