The piece of plastic that covers the usb port has come off! I don't know what to-do? I still have it and was going to super glue it back on, but was wondering if I should use a different adhesive? I can upload a picture if it helps.

Is there anyway without dissasembling it?
No.

You can use desintegrator to destroy your current housing and teleport to fix a new one to it's position...
If my g/f can disassemble her Incs to replace a broken screen and digitizer I'm almost positive that you can replace the housing.

At a guess I would say putting it back together is like taking it apart... in reverse.
But how does the screen work? You gotta heat the sceen and lcd to take them off, then they just go back on?
Yes, they do just go back on.
They will go back on, however, the way your screen is held on is two sided tape. When I did mine my tape went to crap, so I had to apply new tape around the edges to get my screen to stay in place.

Does anyone have a link for replacement housing for the VZW Note 2? My housing creaks on the side and back and I would like to replace it.
Sent from my SCH-I605 using xda premium
Subscribed. I would be interested in this as well.
Won't any note 2 housing work? Be careful when taking it apart. I would just buy the back cover first and see if it fixes the creaking before taking it apart.

I have removed the battery cover and it still creaks. I thought there was a difference between the housings but I could be mistaken.

The battery cover is part of the whole thing. Removing it won't make a difference. If you keep it in its more rigid and less likely to creak.

I would go with an att housing so you can take advantage of wireless charging.
iirc that housing has the cut outs for that feature whereas the vzw housing does not.
as for doing the swap, explore YT on how to vids.
Be careful when ordering your new housing. As this guy found out the hard way they are different depending on carrier.

I didn't believe those that said smudges would be problem on this phone, but it definitely is. To top it off, grit is stuck in some of my speaker holes and I've no idea of how to get it out. It sticks out like a sore thumb when the phone is clean...

I have a xtreme full body kit on mine. Completely clear and has 100% clarity. You can't tell there is anything on the front or back. Takes a simple wipe of the phone with a cloth and it shines like new. No case needed.

I just installed xtremegaurd front and back. U can definately tell it's there(as far as the feel). I'm thinking about taking the screen protector off. The back I will leave because I am waiting on my atmosphere case which has a clear back to it so I still can see the back and not worry about debris getting behind and rubbing on the anodization.

Are there any recommendations for removing the scratches, or polishing them off? I have a tube of Displex that I bought for my PSP screen. Would this work for the camera lens cover on the phone?

Camera lens cover is made of some hard plastic material so probably best not to use any polish on it unless it is a plastic polish.

Displex appears to be some kind of plastic polish. I suppose this would suffice?

I am wondering if you polished the lens cover and if it was successful at removing the scratches. I have a few surface scratches on my HOX+ lens cover, and polishing seems like a reasonable solution. Thanks for any feedback.

This is the only reason I got a cover. When laying the phone flat on its back I felt I kept scratching the lens so now it has a bit more of distance between lens and table.

+1 for me. the lens of my One is always in contact with the surface it's laying on. Had the first scratches on the lens within an hour.
Today I dropped my phone for the first time
The so called aluminum frame was instantly damaged and to my surprise it was paint that chipped off.
Underneath there is just a hard kind of plastic.
I looked all over the place for a replacement frame but can't find any.
Anyone else with this problem?

First of all, greetings to everyone on this forum, this is my first post here.
I have a black Xperia SP (C5303), and have the same problem. Mine dropped on the street from my hand and although was in his leather casing, somehow dropped on the only side without protection. Was very suprised when I saw that 'alumium' frame was very damaged (damage looks like on your phone) from dropping only 1+ m of height inside of a protection case. The good news is that nothing else was damaged.
The phone is great for my needs, but I'm still not convinced with quality of aluminium frame. Probably this is the price of his weight. Before had Samsung Galaxy S Advance and dropped him accidently only once but without even a scratch.
I was very upset with the damage, but because of its black color it is not as visible as on your white model, so for now I won't be searching for a replacement frame... Hopefully won't be dropping him too much.
Greetings.
Yep it happens, even when I am charging, when the charger scratches the coat on the port, the paint will be chipped off.
Luckily I bought a black one, and the problem is not so bad and visible.

Bro i thinks its chrome finish that have came out take it to the service center tell them ur prob and btw i have dropped my sp today and voila nothin happens surprised to see this thing surprise..! but this thing wouldn't happen to me..maybe its because my sp is black..and keep it carefully now bro or its will ripped off by small pressure..
Quite a disappointment. My previous sony phones where solid as a rock.
It looks easy to remove though with the two screws. What you guys think

Same problem in my Spanish SP... Shouldn't this be solved by Sony? aluminium frame is not made of aluminum, isn´t it?
I have also the same problem on my SP. is it normal?? Sony has to replace our frame with a better one.
I'm very disappointed with this ****ty paintjob, my hpone is barely 1 month old and it already got chipped paint on a several spots on the frame. I thought the frame was aluminium because every review I've read said so.... even if it wasn't aluminium, the paint shouldn't have come off so easily. i read sony used water-based paint, maybe that's why.
