Sony Z1 (new phone comes with no bluetooth speaker but free software issues)

[taw6]

Hi Voadfone NL,
 
It seems the Sony Z1 has got more than few software issues, it turns out at least one of the really annoying ones is fix in firmware release 14.1.G.1.534. This issue being that when you push the button to answer a call it does not work correctly). 
 
Do you know when it will be available?
 
I have had my phone for 4 days and checked using the phone and PC software and gives the Build 14.1.G.1.518
but also says its on the latest release.
 
Cheers
Tim

Hey taw6,

We don't have any information about the release of these updates unfortunately.

Is there someone else I can ask at Vodafone?

I am amazed no other Vodafone NL customer has this issue.

If you use the Sony PC companion software the update is now avalaible to fix this and a few other issues. Maybe you should make this is avalaible OTA on new phones or at least warn customers to make sure its installed.
