display - Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I just got my xperia z last week from Sony and I love everything about it. I just have a question; is it normal to have a slight yellowish tint at the bottome of the screen?

No,go replace it.

Thanks for the reply. Just wondering will it go away over time? Will the calibration app fix this issue?

I would do what gm007 recommends. Replace it. Had the yellow tint problem on the xperia s. Related to overheating behind the screen. Got it replaced by Sony.

Definitely not normal for the Xperia Z screen. You better send it back asap to have the highest chance of a direct swap.

Thanks guys I setup a RMA with sonystyle. Hopefully everything will go well

I don't think anyone from the Netherlands got them. Unless they ordered from another country.

Most of us pre-ordered and got an extra item instead.
Some got the Sony MDR-1R
Some got the DK-26
Some got bluetooth speakers etc etc
Maybe that's the reason. I don't think people can still get those items anymore when they buy the phone, but these without the protector included are still from the old batch.
Who knows...

Column on screen at wide angles

I've searched on this forum but can't seem to find an answer to my situation.
If there is a double post please post link.
Anyways, When looking especially from the top or the bottom of my Sony Z at wide angles there is the transparent column visible on the screen. From top to bottom.Not noticeable when the screen is off.
See picture. It's on the left partially over the skip forward symbol.
Looking straight at it is not a problem.
Is this a tft design weakness or hardware problem?
It seems hardware problem but you can try another firmware just to make sure it's not a software glitch.

It can't because it is rooted right?
Bootloader still locked though.

I don't think so but who knows,best way to find it is to flash a stock rom.

Mist on the mirror of camera

Mornin'! (at least here in PL)
Yesterday when i was in jacuzzi i decided to take some underwater pictures using my Z. Ive heared it isnt designed to be submerged, though of course SONY promotes it as it does. Ok but lets move to a problem. After first picture taken accuracy gone bad, the water was clean but pictures of even close localised things were blurred. I remember someone here on forum showed his underwater pictures and they were great actually. Mine were not worth a penny... After bathing i had swab the water all of my device and then i saw the mist on the interior site of mirror of camera. Now its already gone but had been there for few houres. Camera still works perfect after mist had gone, no problems there, however mist is an evidence of water coming somehow through. All of the indicators are white, so its not where the problem comes from. So my question is are you guys facing with such a thing after bathing, is it normal or is it as i said evidence of malfunction? Next question if i bought my Z from polish network Play does it mean warranty is ensured only by them or i can take it to SONY Center and they can fix up this issue too?

Some people are def. confused. XZ was never designed as underwater camera. Keep it safe and out of water.

I hope so, anyway Im going to take it under warranty to check whether everything is ok. And back to my question: can I take it directly to SONY Center rather than taking it to local network provider who sold me my phone?

Probably. Along as you have proof of purchase. But if there's nothing wrong theres nothing they are going to find. And probably charge you for wasting their time

Liorcifer that occurs when the glue holding the lcd down is not layered well. Take it to a service centre and they should be able to fix it in 10 mins. Its nothing serious, they haven't sealed it up properly. Do not try to pressurize the screen as it will not help in sealing it. It has to be removed and re-pasted. Hope this helps your query!. Cheers.
