It seems like a new update is coming to XZ. It may land on ZL as well in few days. It seems like a very minor update.

No, I welcomed that security fix is still alive in 4.2, I just want Sony to put 85% to future updates like the upcoming 4.4 Kitkat and the rest 15% in 4.2

Good, i hope this update fix the heat problem from the 2.67 version
Xperia blog mentioned the update listed on ptcrb . i checked myself for ZL but its not listed for ZL so i dont think it will come to ZL...also .307 update was skipped for ZL and directly 4.2.2 as seeded for ZL before Z...m crossing my fingers for 4.3 for ZL incase sony repeats history....

Ofcourse sony is working for Xperia S... They released it because we want to close our mouths...
It was just my 2 cents on those who thought Sony is over with XS... I was sure that Sony will make this update nice and smooth. Better late than never

Good news
Back in June, we reported of a new Sony Xperia S (LT26i) firmware update that was rumoured to arrive in early July. Well obviously that did not come to pass, but apparently a new update is still on the agenda for Xperia S/SL owners. Sony pretty much confirmed as much on the official support forums, saying that it will have build version number 6.2.B.1.XX. There’s no ETA for the update, but we’ll keep our eyes peeled.

Sure they will...most of Xperia S users only think that Sony will only fix the problems in their phone (Xperia S) only because they (Sony) did reply and respond inside SXS forum...talk about typical Xperia S user that think of their own importance and forget about the others (Xperia SL,Acro S and ion)...

Thanks for understanding.
And yes, this is keeping me away from flashing PROPER Custom ROMs, which means that some people (incl. me) will have to stick to 4.1.2 forever...
Envoyé depuis mon ONDA MID en utilisant Tapatalk 4 Beta
I actually prefer 4.1 ROMs on xs coz they're much more stable compared to 4.2. I have had battery issues with 4.2 ROMs on xs. Hope Sony release a faster, more stable and more efficient 4.1 rather than 4.2. Lets not forget xs runs on over 2 year old cpu.
[OT]My Wildfire S runs with CM10.1 nearly better than with Stock 2.3.5. But let's not forget it has a CPU that was already 2-3 years old when it was released (ARMv6 generation). [/OT]
Just saying...

But bro, if they give an update to 4.2.2, custom roms will obviously come good.. Atleast if they release sources, that would help devs to build a stable one soon.. But they don't.. And obviously i would choose custom rom over stock anytime.. And what XSP ROM(ported HTC) are u talkin bout bro??
Sony says new update rolling to Xperia Z series; brings numerous bug fixes
Sony Mobile has just tweeted that a new Android 4.2.2 firmware update is rolling out to the Xperia Z, Xperia ZL, Xperia ZR and Xperia Tablet Z. They have said the update brings “display, camera, battery fixes & performance tweaks“. No more information has been given, although we expect this to be firmware build number 10.3.1.A.2.67 that recently started to hit Xperia ZR handsets.

By looking at this pic, you can say that 4.3 will be available in just few day:good:
Hope so, buddy.
thanks man,:good:
its about time for an update. i hope we get a stable build.
it is just the update to 8.0.anything right?
And then gotta wait for OTA update or new root method.... so make it + 2 weeks

Agreed. My ZL is in for repair, oddly enough, but are we even sure that they don't mean TrackID is up to version 4.3? It's kinda worded that way in the app store screen-shot posted above.
I can't check, but seem to remember it hovering around v3.8 a few months back.
Sony's been ambiguous about their upgrade path lately. It used to run through 4.3, but now with 4.4 I'm not clear on the schedules...
