Waterproof headphones - Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So i wanted to buy a (wired) waterproof headphones like one of these ( http://www.x-1.com/store/sport-headphones/waterproof-headphones.html ) after buying a great waterproof phone but i have a few questions
Is it ok for the phone and the headset to be noth submerged in water? Knowing that it uses wire and a 3.5mm jack. Being submerged will it have any adverse effects in z1?
Thanks in advance

thr won't be any problem...

Aye, note that the waterproofness is sort of a gimmick... Many phones have pronlems with it.. Soo taking it for a swim on a daily basis is not reccomented...
It's more of a good to have in case your phone mistakly drownes....

i didn't test it but when there s waterproof jack and u plug in the waterproof headset it means they will remain waterproof and if u find any problem after that u can take it to sony service to replace it.

I swam with my z and and also my new z1 daily for weeks in both the swimming pool and the sea and also listened to music on waterproof earphones in deeper water than recommended as well.

LT25i XV Water Resistant

Hello, im a new xv user here, and may 1 ask about the water resistant of the xv? Do you recomended for the first time, to put the device in a bowl of water? Anyone has tried and have problem? I just want feedback, coz its still new. Im abit afraid about it.
Haha it is confirmed water resistant. Placed it underwater and it's okay with the flaps closed if course. The thing is for me, the flaps start being loose.
Humans have evolved to be smarter, but there's one thing we can't get rid off. It's human stupidity.
I got my flaps and metal rim replaced twice for free. Just a pain in the rear end to live without a phone for 2 weeks each time.

Yea. At least in Sony Singapore.The funny thing is that they only started fixing my phone after I made a complain over the phone and finished it in 2 hours. Why don't you yell at them to get them to expedite the fixing
thanks for all you reply dude.:good: ill put my device in the water as soon as i get it today! the reason why im bought this device just only for that water resistant since im a biker and the qualcomm chipset. by the way, Aaron_035 do singapore sony center sell the xv charging dock? coz here in malaysia is abit hard to find it.
If you are unsure, you can always put it in a sealable bag first before youput it in the water.
At least if the flaps are insecure that will keep it waterproof

If you want faster go to junction 8, bishan, their Xperia HQ. Keep in mind they will loan you a k 330. Be sure to tell them to finish it in a week or they would take their own sweet time v

Actually i meant the piece front the magnetic charger. This one
It's an adaptor for when using a genuine case. It should be slightly wider than the piece already in the charger, you switch them over.
CRAP. My C6906 was sealed with those Sony stickers... I'm wondering if that's why I don't have any headphones
Can anybody tell me if the packaging for the C6903 specifically mentions headphones?

Xperia z1 frame dent

Hello everybody, i droped my xperia z1 and now two corners have a dent on the aluminium part. Is this easy to replace? Prices? Any help is apreciated. Thanks on advance
Sent from my C6903 using xda app-developers app
Probably you are the richest guy on XDA to think to replace the aluminum frame. Sorry for my answer, I try to be polite but your question is useless. Is not easy at all and probably nobody will do that, it will cost you more than a new phone. You have to keep the phone like that now. To be sure just go to the store when you brought the phone and ask them. The last chance, if you can't live with the aluminum frame scratched, sell it and buy a new one.

Yep that can be an issue, if some glue broke off or something, be careful

better send it to sony center for repair... frame dents normally compromises water proofing... repairing it your self will definitely compromise water proofing...

It will die and you won't have warranty
It will have the same fate as my first XZ.
Death.
Luckily, Phones4u replaced it no questions asked, even though it was entirely my fault and therefore shouldn't have been replaced.

Maybe a bit of a dumb question?
They are there for a reason and when you open them the software notifies you to close them to preserve waterproofness

Showered, swam, snorkeled, taken lots of underwater pictures. Can't really use it for much in the shower though, as the water drops all act as touches on the screen

Yes, I showered it, soaped it, shampoo it, took underwater pics, took it underwater
And nothing went wrong
Safely take your phone underwater
If anything goes wrong, I personally replace my Z1 by yours!!
Perfect for a quick porn in the shower
Here is my shoot with Xperia Z1 underwater (Sea water).
Those are my nephew excited to have underwater picture with my phone
There is no damage on my phone, no malfunction, everything is perfect. Camera is not fogged and etc.
I wash it in clear water after using it in sea, and you only need to let it dry about 20minutes to speaker gets dry so i can play music.
You can listen music moment you pull it out of water, but its dimmed because of water.
Took mine in the pool, works perfect no issues. I was super nervous but glad I did. Love this phone.

If the break is just on the screen and it's just on the surface, it's still water proof
For example, using knife instead of pen, cracks your screen but it's still water proof
But if the screen is broken, for example fell from 10th floor, so it's no more water proof
Sorry for my bad English and bad telling
I wish you got my mean
Otherwise, I can tell you in another way

I wouldn't risk it with your screen like that tbh...
That's just my opinion though
I wouldn't risk it either. If water enters the phone and it breaks, it won't be covered by the warranty as Sony would blame it on the cracked screen and they would propably be right!
