PCC now.
OTA next Wednesday.
I have no affiliation whatsoever with O2 or any subsidiary companies. Comments posted are entirely of my own opinion. This is not Customer Service so we are unable to help with account specific issues.

Currently using:
Pixel 7a (O2 & Lyca), One Plus 6 (Sfr), iPhone 12 Pro Max (Vodafone)

Yep, i have in visible on pc companion and downloading as i type.  Going straight from 4.4.4 to 5.1.1 so fingers crossed.  Been enjoying lollipop on y N7 (2013) so updating this to round it all off slight_smile

My z3c has no update according to PCC. It's on 5.0.1. Is it just the z2 that is updatable at the minute? I'm hoping for improvements in the camera as the update notes promise. This is the one and only big disappointing thing about my z3c. It's much worse than my 2012 HTC one x!

Opps, well i updated and it's gone to 5.0.2, which is fine but after connecting to PC companion again there's no update available as yet 😞  Sounds like i'll need to wait a bit slight_smile

Thanks @Cleoriff. I'm going to do the old IT fix of restarting both PC and Phone to see if makes any difference wink

It can be multiple reasons, where phone bought from is high as it will be different if bought from CPW etc.
However, it may just be that the z3c hasn't rolled yet and the z3 and z2 are first.
I wouldn't stress too much, it is coming and it will bring the improvements.

Well restarting didn't help (which i didn't think it would).

 

Thanks for the update @viridis, mine was purchased direct from an O2 shop, so like you said just a matter of waiting and hopefully I'll see it in the next few days.

Yeah, O2 and Vodafone are the only UK networks to not have it uploaded for the Z3c at the moment:

Is XperiFirm frowned upon here? It's free and legal. I know you can use it for dis/re-branding your phone if you know what you're doing, and I understand why that's frowned upon in an O2 forum, but just using it to check what's what is harmless and helpful. For the record, I've always stuck with the UK O2 updates with my Xperias.
