How To: Official Android Jellybean update for Sony Xperia TX

Few days back, Sony had promised to bring Jellybean updates for most of its ICS Xperia devices. Till now company has rolled Jellybean update for Xperia T and Xperia V models. With these two timely updates, Sony users were sure about Sony’s word that they will also receive JB update for their devices in coming near future. After Xperia T and V, now it’s time for Xperia TX to get the power of Android Jellybean.

According to official sources, Sony is rolling Jellybean update for TX from today. This new update firmware is coded as 9.1.B.0.411 and it brings all new JB features at one place. Here I am going to discuss completely about this firmware update from Sony. These types of updates keep any company to survive for a long time in this competitive world. As it is an official update so you will not have to un-block your bootloader which means you can directly apply this update with your un-rooted phone. But in case you have rooted your Xperia TX then don’t worry you can still apply this ROM without un-rooting it.

Features
This new ROM comes with all Jellybean features which include:
• Responsive and completely new UI
• Project butter display
• Google Now added to system
• Better notification system
• Fast
• All previous bugs are fixed
• Improved battery

In a nutshell this firmware update introduces all desired features in Xepria TX. So if you are stuck with that old oily interface (sorry for using these words) then it is a must have update for you. According to tech gurus, Sony should have launched this update bit earlier as Xperia T and TX are almost similar phones with minor differences.

How to apply
This update is rolled out through OTA method which means you will automatically receive Firmware update notification on your TX screen. Once you got the notification, follow all the on screen steps carefully. In the end you will be left with complete new interface and all new features like Google Now etc. though this ROM update should be available in most of the regions but in rare case if it is not available in your region then please wait for some more days (better to contact Sony Customer Support).

TIPS
This update requires you to download a heavy ROM file so please try it in presence of some strong Wi-Fi network. Don’t try it with usual 2 G network. Also please backup all your important docs through some backup app. In case you haven’t received any notification then go to Settings>>About Phone path and check for update option there. Now after Xperia TX it’s time for Xperia S model to get official Jellybean update. So keep waiting.
