Hello!
I have a big problem with my Xperia Z...
I put it in 'Flight Mode'...
I then threw it into the air.
Rather than flying away (as expected), it came down onto the concrete.
Both the screen and the glass on the back are shattered.
The screen doesn't work and has a blue line down the centre.
Anyone have any suggestions?
Simple
Just pour some HCl on it
It'll bind the cracks back together
I'm not sure why it landed on the ground though
Maybe rom problem

Damn... But I use my own ROM...
I must inform my users at once, to stop this from being a problem to other XZ users!
Hydrogen Chloride? That sounds so ridiculously, stupidly insane that it might just work!

May be it's hardware problem?
when you put your phone into flight mode, did you see any wings coming out from it?
If not, then Sony should have to look what they've just made

Hmmm
Editing a few xml lines might get flight mode working
Does your phone have working drivers to support flight mode?

Now that you mentioned it... I didn't see the wings... But for my Xperia T it would just hover around itself. (Magically powered by the souls of otters).

So I went to look check my phone, and it slipped from my hand, tried grabbing it, Felt like slow-mo, and just missed it, and watched it fall into the deep fat fryer, So I then had to watch it cook for 4 mins at 240°C.
Obviously turn of the fryer, and tried to dig out with tongs.
The interesting thing is it still works! Tad greasy, absolutly EVERYTHING work, Apart from the speak, So its now useless as a phone :/
Is the speaker user replaceable?

well, that's a pretty interesting story, man.
do you mean the speaker is broken or the microphone? you'll probably be able to get it repaired by samsung assuming you have a warranty on it.
With respect, would you really trust a phone, even repaired that you DEEP FRIED for 4 minutes? Be lucky you can get your data off it and buy a new phone!

Do you really think so They'll see you coming from miles away. You caused the damage yourself, it's not like it's a design fault.
i mean what were u thinkin man..........just cant beleive it u actually fried ur phone..............4 mins in fryer , u might as well eat it like a gingerbread dessert or something

Hmmm deep fried Gingerbread...lol
In all honesty, funkyblue is right. Get what data/contacts you can (if not backed up to google) and get yourself a new phone. If your headset port isn't caked up with grease then maybe you can use it as a glorified MP3/music player.
How on earth did the battery not die?
Forget the speaker, I think the main thing we are all curious about is...do you eat a deep fried SGS with ketchup, or malt vinegar?
Post the pics
BAHAHAHAHA (sorry!), this is the funniest title since someone deep froze their sgs (iirc).
But as to your question, I wouldn't be surprised if the speaker is replacable, iirc its a modular component!
EDIT: wait, was it 454 or 240 degrees? Big difference
or you can keep it and use phone with bluetooth headset???
Pictures have now been added, Sorry for the delay!
The speaker is now working albeit very quietly, There is this greasy ring inside the camera when taking a picture, Guessing oil is trapped in there.

Love the simcard
May I respectfully suggest that coating the phone in batter next time will offer a degree of protection, and add immeasurably to the taste and texture!

It belongs to my 9 year old son, and when we make a call with the phone,
And place it to the ear, the screen goes black and sound disapears!
We can only make calls with speaker on...
Anyone got the magic trick?
I have tried a factory reset, but no dice!
The screen goes black due to the proximity sensor and is normal behavior.
As for your volume issue check your in call volume level.
As for your 9 year old having a smartphone I'm going to say ground zero zombie infection.

Maybe a little piece of rubber from the GPS antena...
I don't have any strange sound, and I shake it like hell...
The only thing that I saw that can get loose when I open my phone was that.
Or maybe its normal.
Seems u have an extra feature on ur phone. That's cool. Should be happy about it.

THe vibration Device Is like A little motor With A too big case (badly explained) and That gets power And shakes wildly To make The phone vibrate. I Think its that
Almost every newer phone has that problem, some say its because of the autofocus on the camera, other say its the result of a too big external sd card slot...
Fact is, that it's no problem for the performance of a phone, but just a small cosmetic fault...
If you look in other threads of different devices, you will see many of these posts, so just don't think about it.
Sorry for my bad english

Well "apparemtly" Nik tried uploading the Rom 3 or 4 times about 2 weeks ago, but I'm not buying that excuse.

Alright lol. Yea im not buying he tried 3 or 4 times uploading it...... Im thinking he needs more time for the ROM. Lets just hope its as great as all other ROMs Nik's made or ported.
You guyz are putting too much pressure on nik.
Remember this is a privelage, nit a right. He is not obliged to supply roms to us, it is volounteery

Why must he make excuses then? Why can't he just tell us straight.

Have a heart guys, Nik's just moved to Italy for higher studies. He already has enough on his plate (new country, strange lingo, inadequate funds, restricted to public or free (read limited) college WiFi /no internet etc). You think he needs to care more for the flashing needs of you guys, than what he's facing now? Stop whining at his heels like noisy puppies at mealtime. Put a sock in it and do meditation or yoga, it improves your patience quotient.

Well I supported Nik when he said that he had difficulties uploading the rom, I still belive him for the fact that most connection has 50kb/s in upload..
BUT
Another guy offered to upload the rom for him; I suggested him to split the rom in 2+ files so that he could upload the files without getting interruped by timeout ( every 15-20 the campus's connection ask to relog-in)...
He accepted an IncS (without battery) from someone and disappered from his facebook page for 10days...
2days ago said that he was sorry because he was busy...
He could behave differently, I don't know what to think...
probably if I had my phone rooted and still s-off'ed I would be under his home pretending the rom xD

Well im just asking what happened. Cuz Project X v4.1 from the index of stuff, the download link disappeared and plus he said he would do upload it... never did..... and im currently using dla's Unofficial CyanogenMod 10.1. I really dont have much need for a new ROM right now (CyanogenMod 10.1 got CRT-OFF XD). Just I was wondering...

Hi,
your answer is here!. Seems to be a hardware short circuit.
maybe putting your open device close to a warm source to dry it will give you 15.031969% to save it...
Else, I fear you need Samsung service..
I don't mean to be rude but why did you open a thread here on XDA about this?
This site is for mobile phone/tablet development.
You have bought a faulty device, it happens.
You need to take it back for a replacement, simple.
I hope you get it sorted! It's never nice buying something and it not working properly.

i believe it got something to do with calibration or something related to software
as phone was flashed earlier and it might be something to do with flashing
i was thinking of writing NV calibration data from another phone to see if that may help, but thought of getting more ideas first.

Oh right, fair enough then. I thought it was brand new and you'd just taken it out of the box.

as good as new, only a few days used, sending it back would be costly
so i thought to get some ideas if it could be calibration data or something, as i have already flashed it but it didn't yield any result..
