As we anticipated a few hours ago, the Japanese company Sony is currently working on a new security patch for the most popular mobile phones in the Xperia range. After the certification that the Sony Xperia Z2 has starred in, this time it is the Sony Xperia Z1, the Sony Xperia Z Ultra and the Sony Xperia Z1 Compact which have appeared in a new certification in which it has been revealed that in the coming days will receive an update with the denomination of 14.4.A.0.133.
This update will reach the Sony Xperia Z1, Xperia Z Ultra and Xperia Z1 Compact from all over the world that currently work under the version of 14.4.A.0.118 (in some cases 14.4.A.0.108). As can be seen by looking at the last three figures of these updates, the new certification that these mobiles have carried out corresponds to a small, minor update that will only incorporate security improvements. And precisely those security improvements will be focused on the Fake ID security flaw that was detected in the Android operating system a few days ago.
On the other hand, there are also sources that indicate that the Fake ID security flaw has already been completely solved with previous updates, so in that case we would be talking about a new update that would incorporate small bug fixes. Among the most common errors in the Sony Xperia Z1, Z Ultra and Z1 Compact is the problem of spontaneous restart, some other problem with the camera and other small performance glitches that affect random users around the world.
Whatever the purpose of this update, owners of a Sony Xperia Z1, a Sony Xperia Z Ultra or a Sony Xperia Z1 Compact should wait to receive the corresponding notice on their mobile phone that will inform them of the availability of this new update. Anyone who does not want to wait for any alerts can manually check the availability of the update by following these simple steps:
- We enter the Settings application.
- Click on the " About the device " section.
- We enter the " Software update " section and click on the " System " tab. Next, click on the arrow icon located at the top right of the screen. From here, the mobile will automatically perform a check to determine if there is a new update available for download. This process must be carried out using the WiFi connection, in addition to the fact that it is also recommended to have more than 70% autonomy on the mobile in order to avoid the risk of suffering a blockage in the terminal during the installation of the update.
