Xperia Arc Software Upgrade

Anonymous
Not applicable

I want my sandwich! I have a Sony Xperia Arc which I got from Carphone Warehouse but with an 02 contract. I have yet to get the software upgrade to the latest andriod sandwich/4.0 Cat Sad

 

When can i get the upgrade please? It is my understanding that 02 are blocking it for whatever reason and I think that is unfair!

It's on the official Sony site so I would think so.

Thanks to all for the info and updates. I'm disappointed that my Arc won't be getting the latest software; but it's still a fine phone. Maybe my next will be a Samsung Galaxy Note IV  slight_smile Now that'll be a phone and a half!

All depends on if the handset is unbranded & running generic software OR if it's O2 branded.

 

Unbanded should get the ICS 4.0.4 update from Sony

O2 branded your basically stuffed / stuck with original Gingerbread
