Only Sony and/or your provider can confirm that, but even then it would be nice if you could tell us what version are you on now? You don't even tell us that so how are we meant to help you......

Oh sorry! Haha

I'm on 4.2.2 at the moment. When do you think the UK will get a 4.3/4.4 update

Why don't you just use Flashtool to get it to your phone using one of the available ftf's ?

Here is a video on how to do that:

Flashing with flashtool don't need root acces and it can't be detected.
You have to read before ask,you will have a reponse faster.
Read that ,if your Z1 is not on the list wait a week or two or flash with Flashtool

I would update through the PC companion. Many people seem to have encountered problems flashing with flashtool on this update. It was taking forever for the ota for me as well

When the Z1 first announcement it come with 4.2.2 already. So if he ask for 4.3 or 4.4 that meant he on 4.2.2 already.

because there is NO UK Unbranded Generic.. and the official channels are my preferred route too.

Whether you use UK generic or any other generic one does not make a difference whatsoever, but it's up to you.

I have never encountered any problems when using Flashtool. Just make sure to use the most recent version.

The 4.3 is avaliable so if you use OTA or SEUS you get it.
As for rooting, it doesnt avoid your warranty unless you remove the root and install a clean version when you deliver the device for repair or replace it.
Only thing that avoid the warranty is unlocking the bootloader.
Keep your .257 rooted version and wait for a rooted locked version for 4.3.
Btw there will come a hotfix version in January (newer 4.3) for Z1.
4.4 will come April/May i think...

i've done my share of android modding/roms/etc.. however i like my region and stock rom the uk generic unbranded is and in turn would rather wait it out.. as hard as it is.. hehe.
