If you are trying the OTA, it is likely to fail. I had the same issues.

Plug the phone into the PC and update via PCC. It will work.

I tried via PC Companion but it shows an error like " you installed custom software to phone,it can't be updated "..:(

If its OTA that fails it probably because of rooted phone. If PCC fails to update its because of unlocked bootloader, check for it in service menu. :)

Just relock the bootloader and you can update the phone with Sony Update Service.
However my problem after unlocking the BL again the phone still offers the update to be installed even it is already there. Any idea how to fix this?
