When you update your phone with PC Companion or SUS, you flash your phone, in theory. Same exact thing, just a different source/tool.
Aren't updates region specific? That updates for US phones may not be fully compatible for a UK phone, for example. Probably just some minor differences, plus the inevitable bugs. So, your choice guys, if what I said was true though.  |

The diferences from regions are: The bloatware included, the time it takes ot get to the phones, and, in some cases, the baseband. I'm not sure how it works with T and the variations, but with S is a universal Baseband.

When I had my S I unlocked the bootloader and flashed everything but what I found was that once I did this my phone became buggy as hell.
Now I know that you don't have to unlock the bootloader to use flashtool just to flash another region firmware I think for once I just want to keep my phone as is because it's working brilliantly at the moment, so I can wait................................Or can I?

Again some nice pics there Sean  I can't wait for the summer months, to get out and use this camera in the sun
As for jellybean, I tried pcc and sus but no joy  but while I was installing sus I looked on my laptop and found the fastboot folders still there just in case I want to play

Fast boot folders?? I do fone occasionally the T has a slight focus issue but nothing major. Today my battery seemed to hold up well even in cold weather. I hammered it with about 100 photos,browsing the web on and off,What's App,texting etc but no calls and by 3pm had 50% left. Not bad really

You use the fastboot folder to unlock the bootloader and then you can flash custom kernels ect from it to your phone 
I can see what your saying about the battery, over the past couple of days I've left both data and WiFi on constantly and my battery has been great I took it off charge this morning at 8 and I have 63% left right now

I think your right, I must be a light user compared to you Sean
No seriously, today has been a lighter day as I've used my tablet a bit more but I am quite a heavy user anyway, always online checking things so for me the battery seems great so far

A quote from someone who has the update on Xperia Blog
My review so far: you can really feel the butter experience, the phone just responds better than with 4.0.4.
Camera app got a huge update too, hdr photo and superior auto.
new launcher looks good too and is alot handier then changing widgets and or themes. Also boot screen is same as Xperia z. Lots of new audio options too

Hey, guys, do you know if Sony's flash tool erases contacts, apps, game save files etc.? I'd love to flash my phone to JB, seeing as it's not yet available on the PCC and I'm having some shutdown issues.

You can flash using flashtool and keep your data intact, or do a full wipe
Here's the link to flashtool on xda
