Hello everyone , As Sony has release the Lollipop Android 5.0.2 for Sony Xperia Z3 , Z3 Compact and Z2 .

As many people are not getting the OTA updates / cannot update to Lollipop on their Sony Xperia Z3, so here I am posting a newbie friendly tutorial on getting the official Android Lollipop

This tutorial is only for Sony Xperia Z3 ( D6602, D6603, D6606, D6653, D6616 ) . Do no flash this on any other phone except Z3
