hi all,

i was comparing my xperia  c camera with other models like t2 ultra and t3 in a shop. then there was xperia c phone with which i compared my phone's camera and i was shocked to see the result. it was giving more clear picture in low light. then i checked its software version again i was shocked after seeing the version. it was 16.0.B.2.21.....!!!! never heard that  version before.  my  phone's software version is 16.0.B.2.16. anyone got update to 16.0.B.2.21??

Is your phone locked to a carrier/network branded?

[Avinashrao]

no its not locked to any network/ carrier.

You can manually flash another country's firmware however to answer your question - Before generic handsets get the update the networks have to all authorise the update, I'm not saying they have to release the update but they do have to authorise it - Then Sony will be authorised to release it to generic devices

How to flash manually to other country's firmware?
I do Use my phone constantly to take photos.
Does it voids my phone's warranty if I flash ?

Is this authorised version. Any negative outcomes?

I don't have this phone to test it myself BUT you can use the search bar (top right corner) and look up for feedback or issues on that update
