Help! Want to Update Rooted Xperia Z

Klaus-Mikaelson — Sun, 15 Dec 2013 16:41:11 GMT

Hi!
I rooted my Xperia Z a few days ago using Flashtool from XDA

my bootloader is still locked

Now i've read that the 4.3 Jellybean update is available, or will be, soon

my query is - will i be able to update my device through the OTA update? If yes, would there be any problems with the device? i mean.... it won't brick, would it?

and if NO, what are the alternate methods to upgrade to the latest firmware?

No issues if i lose my root .... i just don't wwant to brick the device!

Any help would be deeply appreciated

Thanks in Advance! 🙂

As long as you haven't unlocked the bootloader you can update your phone (once the update its available) through OTA, PCC, SUS or Bridge, or you can flash your phone with flashtool either or will work w/o any issues. Your root access will be gone.

STOP SCREAMING (all caps = scream)
your internet might be too slow or an antivirus is causing this issue
