If you are a Verizon Xperia Z3v owner and are sick and tired waiting for an update to Android Lollipop, then you’ll be very glad to hear that official Lollipop firmware has leaked and is available for you to download right now. Android 5.0.2 Lollipop build number 23.1.D.0.485 is an official firmware build for the Verizon Xperia Z3v.
We’re not sure why Verizon has held back the Xperia Z3v Lollipop release, but as things stand there is no ETA on when Verizon will officially release the update. While you wait, the leaked firmware should easily tide you over. The leaked FTF file (found below) can be flashed using Flashtool – there are links for both a stock FTF and a pre-rooted file too.
