I guess there is a new update certified on PTCRB. I guess it's today.
It's surely a bug fix since it's only .236 from .216 changed.

Guys,
Check out my guide here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-zr/general/rooted-ota-update-failed-10-10-5-1-0-292-t2948116
You need to find what is the modified system files that cause the setup to fail. Most like Kingsoft changes the root settings in the config.
Just removed root and install was succes.

It was through PCC mate. I had my tablet connected this morning with no update, so it's obviously only been out for an hour or so.
Just installed, and I'm actually rather enjoying it! Alot better than what screenshots have shown.

Thanks. I'll try Emma again soon. Ironic really - Emma is a Sony developer tool which is meant to give updates a bit sooner than the usual methods
For those of us that are on Cyanogen, is there any way of finding out if the FTF has any important firmware updates in there?
I can rename the .370 FTF to ZIP and see all the sin files, but the vast majority I am unsure about.
Otherwise, I can always nandroid and do it that way

Relock your BL or wait for a ftf.
The problem is not using a custom rom and update with pcc (the rom doesn't matter but the kernel yes), it's when your bl is unlocked you can't update via SUS/PCC no more.

Once the FTF is out and about is there a way of knowing what we need to flash (and perhaps how) to not affect our existing custom setup?

When you flash a ftf file with flashtool, deselect DATA in the wipe section (box in top right corner). That will preserve your data when you flash.

Ok, sounds like a good compromise
When someone uses PCC to download the firmware, is a local copy stored?
Just wondering what the chances of getting this file are!
I like everything is this update, except the recent apps tray. Swiping away should always be 'swipe across' not 'swipe up or down'.
Few new features might have been nice, but can't complain. At least it's arrived!
It also has the thumb keyboard!

I think you'll still can get an OTA update if you just root the device
I don't know for sure, I didn't have time to try. Update in my country is at very slow pace, and after I root my device I haven't get update while the newest update rolling out at other country but not in my country, so I decided to install custom ROM to get latest update asap

Yes, I'm using titanium backup too for backing up and restoring apps, it's very usefull and it's worth to buy the pro version.
I think you'll also need OTA Rootkeeper to protect the root if there's OTA update so you can root your device easily, still, haven't try these yet because I already use custom ROM, but I still have it just in case I'll need it sometimes in the future. Me, I use voodoo OTA rootkeeper, the first one I found in playstore, don't know if there are any others.
Still don't know many much since this is my first time using rooted android and still learning about this device, that's least info I know and can share with you.

this update came out one week ago. if you are on stock ROM, you can update it. otherwise you need to restore to stock ROM to update and then root and install customized recovery. these process can keep your user apps and data.

You can't update through OTA anyway if you're already on a rooted phone. I'm also on NUT's rooted firmware and received the OTA notification and the update won't work due to root or custom recovery.
So what if I want to update?? Can I? (rooted xperia z1...)
Have also just got the update through, it's a very small update, kind of reluctant to update, but it's so small I can't see it removing root either way.
I'm in the UK and am on EE. Running Monx's rom 6.0.3
Tried it, wouldn't install, cannot verify.
Need to get rid of this bloody notification now.

If you are rooted using NUT's package then you can update following this
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=53037526&postcount=114
Just clear the icon, it's not going to be installable if youre on a custom rom, so monx = no, i'm guessing most of the other rom's will be the same too.
Just go to settings / apps / all / update service and update centre and stop notifications.
Gets rid of it but obviously the update is still there.

did you convert SuperSu in a system app (with the special function of SuperSu app) before the OTA firmware update?
First we get told that this is an operator specific update for France and China, then there's a certified update ending with 769, and now we get this 761 update worldwide.

You can always GET an OTA but you won´t be able to install it in some scenarios.
Your system partition has to be mostly untouched, but root and Xposed Framework won´t cause any problem. You can use stock or Philz Recovery.
Also got the update but the installation is failing due to unexpected changes to build.prop. I have removed xposed and anything else I can think of that may have changed the system partition but still no go.
Any ideas? Maybe someone could post their build.prop?
I'm also getting the update in The Netherlands. Bought my phone online amazon.de :laugh:

Yes, you have the right version of firmware for this OTA, don´t know why it´s failing for you, there´s too much variables, it´s hard to tell.
As to where the file I posted comes from - it´s right from my phone. Until today morning I was on French 4.4.4, then I flashed the German 4.4.2 firmware to look if I could catch the OTA and it really came, I pulled it from my /cache and posted here.

Why so sceptical? Apart from a different dialer GUI, there´s not much difference you can really feel on 4.4.4, basically there are just some bug fixes.

Perhaps you need to uninstall and remove the modules and the xposed from the system before updating. Xposed and the modules add / modify system files and other sources in the device. Make sure you unroot as the last step as well. Stock recovery is required to install the OTA successfully
