Sony why do you feel it's ok to ignore your customers on issues with your handsets, UK still has no unbranded xperia t update and no answers in the forums, and the nee firmware is bugged to **bleep** as you can see from all the posts here even though it ways delayed again and again, are you going to be sending out bug fixes in a more timely fashion if at all, or are you going to leave xperia t users high and dry and leave us on a buggy version of 4.3 and move on, I demand an answer as a unbranded unlocked customer, I'm your customer not my carriers, starting to get really upset, I will not be getting a Sony phone at upgrade time, and may shun your brand altogether

I was also going to post a similar question, I cannot understand giving customers the ability to ask question but then fail to respond it’s like shouting into the wind.

Why do some phone company’s offer all software updates (apple) and   if your phone is capable to run it then it is OK, or the likes of Microsoft who charges you for updates both models seem to work and keeps the customers happy.

From a UK unhappy customer

Before unbranded handsets can be updated networks in the UK like vodafone - Orange - o2 etc have to approve the update - Vodafone might approve the update and release it to their branded handsets but Generic have to wait - I don't know why it's just the way it is

Nothing is wrong with the xperias... A hard reset after update is mostly recommended, such as updating with pc companion.. Had updated the Z1 with OTA thru Wi-Fi and it works ok, but T was updated by PC Companion, and there are new ver. of Walkman, Track ID, menus and messages skins similar to xperia Z1.. Don't know if OTA update will give new apps, but it should, its the same.. download, install, reboot thing.. PC Companion also is downloading a package from sony server, so there should't be any differences.
If you didn't got new walkman app, and refreshed Chrome browser, propably something went wrong. Try to repair download now by usb cable and companion soft. 
REMEMBER to go first step to default Xperia Z1 like THEME, the phone can get a startup crash when loading an optional Play skins and loaders.. 
1. Screen tap - theme > Xperia Default or any Sony has made.
2. Restart.
3. Plug to Companion.
4. Update.
5. First Launch.
6. When everything loads restart again.
7. Hard Reset on installed 4.3 (power + Vol Up)
Made already on 3 Xperia T's and all three went well without bugs and errors of Walkman, charging death or other issues.
So that made the progress correct for update.
Yeah, still the didn't say you'll need to hard reboot, and change the skins, walls, to default, but... it seems it works the best on just sony Apps, and original themes. Hope that will help anybody.
Aaa... the date of sony "release" on the web is a starting tests date.. That would be normal to have an update after a month or two, from the date you seee on sony.com Patience is gold

Well i did a reset to my Xperia T and installed all again did the Power +volume up and now it does not turn on

as a really need a phone for work this day has been terrible i will have to go out and buy a new phone, so i can say for a client that for 5 years always had Sony this is the end of the line never again and i will tell every one about this.

the same to me. my tx is hongkong version and along with China mainland version, still got no ota till now.

What can I say, sorry for your loss... 
Seems that as many phones there are as many different procedures to make it work fine. 
Hmmm.... For update the phone was charged 85%, I did 4 hard resets just to make Wi-Fi run correctly, still my example doesn't show any other bugs... Hard to say, don't have any movies on it... will try to copy some to the SD and see if having the blue screen bug, but for now everything else works fine.
I guess the screen looks even better than the Z1 has... comparing them now T looks like a smaller sister, but the Z1 has some gray issue, feels like it's little too bluish in home screen, where T has greys and blacks, it's so overbrighted on Z1. Heh, stupid but like my old T even more now, it's so natural and doesn't kill my eyes from long watching it.
Out from subject a little, sorry for that, well.. will keep my T 4.3 testing for any bugs and keep you posted.
