just saw it
uploading soon
4.3 the camera ui is different, and there's no megapixel settings when on superior auto mode.

Bug found, sometimes when I unlock the phone, blank screen...No idea.how to.fix, But it sseems like it's in deep sleep and reluctant to wake up..

Do you have these issue?

You will upload the 4.3 ori kernel only tft? :good::fingers-crossed:

Hey guys im not getting the android 4.3 update OTA. My phone is Xperia ZL C6502 India..

My phone is rooted, BL is not unlocked. Im starting to think like that the rooting is the fault thats not allowing any updates to come..

Is the update available yet.?

If the update was available you would be able to download it OTA. But if you are rooted and modified anything in system or recovery, you won't be able to install the update.

Xperia ZL, 4.2.2 Stock (.67), rooted

If you didn't modify anything OTA should work. I'm also still waiting for the update. I start to work again on monday, and I would be happy if the update is available in my holidays...

Guys, I downloaded the Sony update service. After I connect my phone in flash mode, the SUS reported that there's an update available. Its android 4.3.. I didn't update as I thought that it might unroot my phone.

Please somebody update and say..

Thanks in advance..

Did some further investigating. Updated the ADB drivers as per some other threads, now in the device manager I get SEMC flash something when I connect in flashmode so im guessing drivers are ok, but i still get the "cant find the specified path" message using the bin4ry and doomlord methods. Any other suggestions???

The new update is available for Xperia ZL C6502 India

See the post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2591218

Simply flash it using flashtool

Yes it will erase everything on device
And yes ROOT is lost
And till now there is no method for rooting android 4.3 devices with locked BL
But I just hope there will be one very soon :D

If ROOT is not a that much big compulsion for you I would 100 percent recommend to update as the phone and UI is hell lot fast and smooth now :thumbup:

OK, I was able to successfully and confirmed root on my Sony XL C6506 10.3.1.A.2.67 but now I have that annoying Sony update notification for firmware 10.3.1.A.0.244 that won't remove from my notification center. is that a older build? Am I suppose to update anyways, and will I lose root. but mainly how do I just remove that notification completely from my notifications.

Never mind: All i had to to was disable update center.
