Updating your device

You should update the software on your device to get the latest functionality,

enhancements and bug ﬁxes in order to ensure optimal performance. When a

software update is available,

ID: ICN-SONY-STAT-NOTIFY-SYSTEM-UPDATE appears in the status

bar. You can also check for new updates manually, or schedule an update.

The easiest way to install a software update is to do it wirelessly from your device.

However, some updates are not available for wireless download. You then need to

use the Xperia™ Companion software on a PC or on an Apple

Mac

computer to

update your device.

Before updating your device, consider the following:

•

Ensure you have sufﬁcient storage capacity before attempting to update.

•

If you are using a device with multiple users, you must log in as the owner, that is, the

primary user, to update the device.

•

System and application updates can present the features on your device in another

way than described in this User guide. The Android™ version might not be affected

after an update.

For more information about software updates, go to

www.sonymobile.com/update/
