Unable to update firmware to 10.1.A.1.434 - C6602 India

Hi Tech team/fellow members,

I bought an Xperia Z (C6602) last month in Chennai, India. I checked for any available update in the phone's update center and received an information to update to 10.1.A.1.434 which was released on 25 march 2013 for the screen of death issue (i think!!!). The notification area also showed the same  (New system update available). I was instructed to have a PC to install this update since this cannot be done thro' OTA (or am I missing any piece of info???).

I installed the latest PC Companion in my laptop (runs in Vista Home Premium). Even the PC Companion mentioned that an update for my phone is available. I started the update and waited for upto an hour and 15 mins but still no progress. The screen was showing as downloading something but the PC Companion was not responding. I had to end the task thro' task manager.

Is the update information correct for my model C6602 - meaning is this updated released for the models in India? If yes, why am I not able to update the firmware thro' PC Companion? Is there a OTA available for Indian market? Anybody who know any related information kindly let me know. If any other way to update the firmware also let me know.

BTW, when could the Indian models get an official update to 4.2?

Regards,

Prakash.J

I'm having major problems updating my Z! I tried using PCC and that failed. Saw on here to use SUS and installed the program - now that's failing. I cannot check to see if my phone is charged over 50% and it won't start up - just get the SONY logo lit up for a few seconds then  nothing. When it's plugged into the charger the status light is red despite having had it plugged in for several hours.
