Sony Xperia III - Android 12

holy…
Just for information in case someone has the same problems -
in short read the current thread + this one

just got my xperia 10iii this weekend and didnt expect it to be that time consuming to get sailfish working…
Runs Android 13 - so i had to unlock using sony instructions and a usb-2 port (usbc to usb-c didnt work).

And now im confused.
Emma shows me:

Software:
Model:
XQ-BT52

IMEI:
xxx

Software:
App-Sw: 62.2.A.0.533
Android version: 13

Selected services shows a list of 3:

  • XQ-BT52 62.0.A.3.109 GLOBALEEA-A2 User-Live COM CustomerId(S20000234) Software Update Content Erase Developer_World

  • XQ-BT52 62.0.A.3.17 GLOBALEEA-A2 User-Live COM CustomerId(S20000234) Software Update Content Erase Developer_World

  • XQ-BT52 62.2.A.0.525 GLOBAL-A2 User-Live COM CustomerId(S20000234) 13 Software Update Content Erase Developer_World

For the first one i can find a forum entry from August 21 sayin its Android 11.
What was confusing that it says XQ-BT52 62.0.A.3.109 instead of the mentioned 61.0.A.3.109.

The 62.x downgrade with Emma worked for me.
