The OTA will fail, because your bootloader is unlocked.

Better flash ftf with flashtool or use SUS and always backup you data before try them :good:

Use Helium (Carbon) or titanium backup to backup your apps.
Settings are also saved?

make a backup atleast before you try if you are concerned
i went from the 4.1.2 tmobile branded to .67
it seems to have broken the tethering portion of settings (i didn't wipe data)
probably going to do a fresh flash to .67 before 4.3 or 4.4 comes out.
I think I will wait for the newer android update, I know there was a flashing method to keep your apps and settings. I got my backup so try it later when 4.3 or 4.4 is released.
Thanks for the quick replies!

Download the firmware ftf file that is in the general section, download flashtool - the latest version which is 0.9.13.0 and flash the firmware.
So you mean guys is ftf update? Not android firmware update?..

Is it just me or UK-cust Z1's didn't get Kitkat yet?

Hello all,
I got my Z1 through Amazon, my customization number is 1276-0875 (Customized UK). It took sometime to get the 4.3 update, like 3 weeks later the official release. Till now I didn't get any update notification on my phone or PCC for Kitkat. Is that normal? :|
It's not out yet

You should need to thank god that you didnt receive 4.4 update. Because this update is full with bugs
Sent from my C6903 using xda app-developers app
I got it on mine. Unlocked Z1. But as other people have said. Just use flashtool. Doesn't alter anything its as safe as houses.

Individual carriers will be working on the update, testing/fixing etc. Probably better that you wait seems as there was so many bugs in the last one.
