I have created a small tool to check the current firmware-version of our Xperia's in many countries based on the information of the threads on XDA: For example:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2355985

It is coded with VB.Net 2008 und the .Net-Framework 3.5 have to be installed.

Enjoy and give your feedback.

I hope you realize that this may cause serious server overload if many people start using this. The fuas.sonymobile.com server is already terribly slow at times. If Sony notices that this is the cause, they may change to a more complicated system and then we might have no possibility anymore to keep lists like these updated. That's my main concern with programs like this.

I don't know, if the list of XZ receives updates. The tool was formerly created for the XL (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2355985) and this list wasn't updated for months. My intention was to give the users more transparency. The lists (XL) are useless atm.

Can you add one download button aswell?
Sorry, i can't. You have to download it with pcc.

@Levered

Ok, i have updated the tool with some data for the C5303. The information is out of the general section of the XSP here on xda.

Have fun!
