[Q] Server problems at Sony?

[Manneman32]

I bought myself a new Xperia z3+ at christmas. Well... it was second hand but never used used, still new in the box but the seal was broken for inspection.

It works great!

I checked "Check for upgrades" but nothing, I have the *.251 firmware. When I click the link that leads to Sonys website I see that the latest FW for my region is *.266. Well... I connected it to Bridge For Mac and the app tells me "server problem". I connected it to a PC with PC Companion and I get the message that there is a problem connecting to the servers. This has been going on for 2 weeks. Do I have to worry?

I think that I got a firmware update at christmas when I got it... so I don´t think the phone has been tampered with. But how do I know that? Is there any way for me to check if the bootloader has been unlocked? Can that have anything to do with it or is this a real "server problem" in my region?

Once again... the phone, itself, works 100% great and I am very pleased with it.

I get the same message on pc companion for 4-5 months. Never buying Sony again.

I don't think you need to worry too much about this issue. This issue has been around for a long time.

A Thread from the Sony Support Forum

The reason I say don't worry is because Sony has just recently started to roll out the *.266 firmware. I just recently received .266 OTA today and PC Companion finally recognizes my Z3+ as well as being able to connect to the update server (after PC Companion was updated too). You should receive the update eventually.

There is a way to check the bootloader's status but I find that to be vague because it tells you if the bootloader is unlockable and it feels like you're trying to decipher a puzzle. Just know that if your bootloader has been unlocked, your camera won't be able to focus at all. If you're interested in checking this vague bootloader status info, do this:

Dial *#*#7378423#*#*
Service info > Configuration
Look Under "Rooting status"
