My NFC sticker became scratchy and ugly.I was thinking of removing it.
Anyone did this?

I took mine off straight away, I dont think it has a use other than letting you know it has nfc. It came off pretty easy. Pretty much fell off.

I think Sony should have etched the NFC logo in the same way as the Xperia logo...

Thanks for the tip. The sticker became ugly after only 2 days. Nice to read that I could take it off. The back looks a lot better without.

I really don't understand why sony puts those ugly stickers on the back. Ok, it has NFC, we got it
Maybe they thought it was too damn sexy without those?
I think it's better then embedding the nfc logo into the phone.

Same reason why every company thinks it's necessary to put all those stickers on laptops in front of the keyboard... Very annoying for sure!

+10, yep I though this had something to do with the workings of NFC, because it is hardly a sticker . When and if I remove the rear screen protector I will remove it.

No. The NFC unit is built into the phone, removing the sticker doesn't cause any problems.

Yes you are right! NFC has a pretty low range than Bluetooth and placing it at the right spot should trigger the beam, slight movements can cause connection termination (i mean even a slight movement) so it's appropriate to show people where the chip is actually placed so you need not touch everywhere and see. That's what for the sticker is and after you know where it's placed, you can remove it safely.. I did too, no probs in that!

I'm glad they didn't, the NFC logo is one of the worst logos ever. I would have been very unhappy if I couldn't remove it
Hahaha wtf, for about 2 months I used to think that the NFC sticker on the back was the actual NFC chip and I was panicking because it kept getting scratched, then just about 5 minutes ago it sort of moved to an angle and I was like 'wtf, pretty sure a chip isn't meant to move like that'. Then I knocked it with my nail and it just fell off. Now I feel like an idiot haha, for the whole time I was doing the best I could to take care of it, now I've realized I've spent 2 months looking after a sticker...

With some sort of scratch-proof magic coating. Maybe we should just ask specifically for a titanium cover.
I'd like a backcover with a proper clear class for the camera, so the pictures won't come out all hazy and greyish as they do now..
As for colors:

Anyone know where we can purchase an original black/brown one? I dropped my phone on the pavement and now it has a nice scratch on the corner...I had literally just put it in a leatherette case not 10 minutes before so I guess I was lucky....

I removed almost all of it and applied duct tape in the interior so that the camera wouldn't be filled with dust...

Just mask the middle up give it a light sand and paint any colour you want, just put plenty laqure on so it doesn't scratch easy.
Then custom colour it any way you want
My local LG just drop me a voice mail during holiday, it will cost US$11 for a replacement which I can pick up from LG service centre.

When we got our phones on the back there is a a small square where the NFC is, before i start peeling is that a sticker or is that something that needs to stay on?

Dears,
just curious, does anyone have some idea abt what the small opening at the bottom is intended for? not sure how to describe what i mean, so pls see the enclosed picture.
I dont think it does anything, if you look close enough its just nothing.
and the paper says nothing about it: Xperia Z Parts Name

I always just assumed it was a noise cancelling microphone to filter background noise in calls.

The noise cancelling microphone is the little hole next to the camera, btw I always had the same question about this little thing on the bottom

Hmm is one of those things which is probably the most simplest
Sent from my C6603 using Tapatalk 2
the answer is simple
If you guys review all the side design
the bottom is the only side where both ends is ambidextrous (or something to that effect)
with each end have the same roundness
the sides and top have this plates that can only it a certain way,
one side is rounded while the other is flat
the bottom, without the key and hole
would mean possibility of reversal/wrongly stuck onto the unit
thus the hole (not exactly a hole,more like a key and hole)
is for installation process
I always assumed it was for this purpose? (Lanyard)

Theyre talking about a different hole, see picture in 1st few posts
So? Any conclusions?
I think i once heard that this is the hole they use to inject/remove pressure into the phone to sort of create a vacume, one of the things that make is dust/water proof?
Took a picture earlier and I noticed there is something odd looking towards the top part of any pictures I take. Even shows up when I have the camera up.
Time for warranty I suppose.

Crack in the lens cover?

Get it replaced. Seems like an issue with the magic eye of the lens. It's probably damaged or a dirt got inside your phone and made it's way to the eye.
Or could you try to lightly tap the phone in your palm? It might get off the eye also but of course it's still there inside so kinda annoying.

Hi,
I just bought my Sony Xperia Z1 two days ago and everything's been great. I love it! Feels great to hold, pictures are great when shot in manual mode, looks great, etc. But, while taking pictures in my room, I noticed a white line on the edge of the screen right next to the volume rocker. I thought it was the picture but it turns out that it wasn't. This definitely was not here when I first turned the phone on so now I'm scared that the line is actually a crack and may worsen over time. And no, it's never been bumped into anything.
Well sorry for it happened same with me and I got my phone replaced thanks to ADP and it looks the same phone I sent for replacement...
