for Tablet Z (so-03e) whit SGP321 Rom and 32Gb internal is 1000% correct, because i receive immediately updates .....after first 4.3 I receive 3 small software updates now current release is 10.4.1.B.0.101
....even i receive some sony apps like new album and new walkman faster then I receive these updates on my xperia z ultra whit official 4.4.2
PS: and if you wach carefully you will see that apr 29 is certificate android 4.4 for tablet z

They won't, I guess it was completely deleted from 4.4 code again. Take a look at the Xperia Z2 Tablet UI. That's basically what we will get.

does anyone know if there's an easy way to flash back to stock from CM10? I miss my IR blaster and the smallapps. done some searching, but I either suck, or can't find a definitive answer as to special instructions.
Use Flashtool or EMMA software for this purpose.

No one outside Sony knows that. It's supposed to be in May according to the device page so it's just a matter of patience now.

I registered a username for Emma, but I don't get a confirmation email.
How can I use Emma without an account???
Its supposedly released in malaysia and denmark. I'm in sweden but so I havent received it yet. But then again I am with 4.2.2 and not with 4.3 my pc companion says 4.3 is available but I am not going to upgrade to 4.3 instead I'll be going directly to 4.4.2 (if possible somebody replied to me that one has to upgrade to 4.3 before upgrading to 4.4.2 ) lets see
it didn't come by denmark just yet or it may be because im running a rom from another country idk but i dont see any update yet only to walkman
Where did you find the info that it's "supposedly released in malaysia and denmark."
Can you share links pls?

I'm curious, other than the Nexus lineup, who would you say offers faster upgrades? Nexus has the benefit of internal Google development being applied when creating the update. Additionally....it also has NO OS MODIFICATIONS. That's one of the biggest hurdles. All the changes to the OS that companies do, require additional development time. That's in addition to any new drivers that have to be created and tested for components that exist in this particular device, that weren't in the Nexus devices.
So what manufacturer besides Sony would you purchase from who does not have that same issue? I ask because you indicate you'd just continually buy new cheaper devices. Even many new launch devices currently do not come with 4.4.2 loaded on them. Those that do, only have been showing up in the last month or so at best, and normally are NOT the cheap models.
We have already received one major update on the Tablet Z. We just received a minor update the other month and are due for another major update within 2 months. Seems relatively quick to me.
4.4.2 launched in December for Nexus devices. Most manufacturers would not want to jump on 4.4 cause they know there'll be quick follow up updates. And 4.4.1 was only a few weeks before that. Most nexus devices didn't have 4.4.2 until late December or early January. It's the end of March now, and we're already targeted to receive the update in May. Granted it could be late May or even June for certain models, but they just recently got 4.3 out there, so they jumped onto 4.4 pretty quickly.
Also, this sentence: " being in Canada and waiting 6 months for an update is complete BULL... " Can you clarify to me what special treatment you are supposed to get since you are in Canada? Are they some type of "mobile OS priority" country?22I will not quote the whole post because it is too long, but... Sony has Ben loosing a lot of money lately, as a whole. Even though Sony Mobile is winning more than losing, the whole company is losing. And, no, they don't have a huge team of developers to take care of that.
Until Sony bought the Sony Ericsson joint venture, all of Sony smartphone development (both hardware and software) was done in Sony Ericsson hoke country. After Sony bought it, they decided to slowly shift both software and hardware development to Sony Japan. That caused a whole huge mess...
Even though Sony Japan had enough manwork, they weren't talented as the software developers from the old SE. They had transfered the 4.1.2 update for S from SE to Japan. Japan messed up the update pretty bad, and SE team (I just can't remember the country name lol) had to work to fix it, while working on the 4.2.2 for newer devices...
So now they have a relatively small dev team, but a very talented one
Sent from my SGP311 using Tapatalk1Xperia Tablet Z 2... screw that... I'm never buying nothing from Sony again. There's no excuse for updates taking this long. As much as I love and baby my tab Z like another child... being in Canada and waiting 6 months for an update is complete BULL... I know its not just Sony's fault, Google is to blame as well. OS FRAGMENTATION issues... thats a laugh... once an update is out these manufacturers should be getting the ball rolling, but they are not. They wait until a new product is in the makes and then they finally do something with the update. Its just not right.
I just don't have enough middle fingers to hold up to those guys. I pay top dollar for a premium product, I expect premium support for that product as well. Otherwise I might as well buy the discount low price no-name piece of hardware that has all the latest technology and latest O/S cause then I can afford to replace it every 6 months to a year instead of expecting support for cutting edge in technology I think will last a few years.
