Sony Xperia V new update 9.2.A.1.210 released

Sony has released a new update 9.2.A.1.210 for the Sony Xperia V. Looks like Sony is gradually rolling out the new firmware. This is the second update to the disastrous introduction of 4.3 Android on the Xperia V. Both the 9.2.A.0.295 and 9.2.A.1.199 firmwares, created major problems for alot of Xperia V users.

Some users even resorted to rooting the phone and reverted back to the previous firmware (9.1.A.1.140) or Android 4.1.2 which is proven to be stable and gave little problems. I'd prefer a problem free phone with less features or options that is the 4.1.2 version, to be frank.

Let's see if Sony can make amends for the disastrous updates before it.

So far only two region got the update; Baltic and Nordic region.

*An update: Hong Kong seems to have the update as well according to Xperia Update Checker Tool by Macmol from the Xda forums.

*Update ( 18 April 2014 ): 9.2.A.1.210 firmware rolled out to many regions and countries. There is no word from Sony on what bugs were fixed. Video recording still has the 'ticking' bug when camera is re-focusing. Camera Superior-auto mode is still at 9MP. Volume bar bug when a custom theme is used has been fixed.
