https://community.sony.bg/t5/m-series/how-to-check-if-my-phone-is-original/m-p/3437693#M13337 Sorry, iam not so good in English. ithink it's firmware (like: 18.3.1.b.0.18), so if I get notification that there is an updat for it, is that means that the device is original (for sorry I can't contact xperia car from Syria). And if you know is it true that xperia devices that made in China will hangup alot if I updat its firmware, Or android system (I read that m2 will get lollipop soon or later).<BR />Thanks alot Thommo.
