network problem.

I dropped my Xperia z a few weeks back and cracked its back glass panel. since then the network has been very bad until recently I dropped it again and magically it started working fine again.
then I dropped it again (facepalm) and the network is bugging me again.
Does anyone know where the antenna is located so I can try to hit it slowly on antenna again and hopefully get it working?

[Q] [HELP] HOLI ALERT ! Xperia Z water damaged

Hi all . Wishing you all a happy holi.
Well as the thread says and since its holi (no explanation required) my phone seems to have shutdown after my friends and I were playing with a water pipe and I (for kicks) hosed my Xperia Z full of water.
After reading a few threads I came to understand that there are damage strip indicators on all panel flaps.
The micro SD flip is still white but the charger/usb cable and headphone jack flaps have turned pink,
The phone also crashed sometime after I hosed it with water and is not powering up.
So what should I do now?
Currently I'm on the advice of 3 friends using the rice method. I have opened all flaps of the phone and submerged it in a bowl of rice so that it dries out all the moisture. I intend to keep it the whole night and try powering it up in the morning.
Options:
1. Try the rice method and hope it works (yay)
2. After failing point 1, keep it in the sun/blower/hair dryer method and try again to power it up,
3. Take it to the Sony Service Center in Lajpat Nagar (I'm from New Delhi) and give it for repair.
P.S - My phone is rooted and running cyanogenmod. Will they charge me extra If I happen to give it for repair when they find out I'm running a custom mod.
I'm asking because Sony does weird things. When I bought the phone last year I dropped it on the ground and scratched a corner. Not too much but the phone was only 3 months old and I felt bad about it so I thought I get the body changed for a small fee.
Turns out Sony does not replace the phone body instead the executive simply told me to pay 50% of the price and I could get a whole new phone since the Xperia's body cannot be changed.
Kindly help!
Thank You

same here though my power button is ****ed up right now.... i have it dipped in rice and would let it be there for 2-3 days...
P.S even my headphone jack and usb are pink now.... i never had it removed from my pocket but had a lot of water splashes...

THIS THREAD SHOULD BE CLOSED. PROBLEM HAS BEEN SOLVED.
My gratitude to the people who were kind enough to reply to my private messages.
Point no. 1 worked.
I covered the phone in rice in a plastic bowl and left it for a whole day in my car where it got heated.
After that I tried powering it on. Seeing as I had already pretty much destroyed the phone I decided to give it one last shot on charging the phone which I hadn't done in case it short circuits and voila! The red light turns on and my phone is charging.
No problems detected.
Network/3G is working. Tried whatsapp, sms and used the camera and music player. Speakers are fine too. Same goes for the screen. Seems no damage done to the phone at all. Will need to change the screen guard though. Its become moist. I'll use the phone and reply on how the battery has been performing.
I'm sold. This is a SOLID PHONE. And I was worried that I'd have to shell out 15-20k because the damage indicators on the 2 flaps had turned pink.

Yup same here.... Although as I had water in my back camera.... It's left dust on my camera lens

[Q] Display problem on xperia Tx

Well i hope i can find a solution here so this is what hapenned. My Tx went swimming i left it aroud the bath tub and someone was calling me but it was on vibracall so i didin´t listen it, then it fall into the water but i saw it and as fast as i could i take out of the water and it was still ringing, but the very first thing i dit was take out the battery and the screen was still visible when i dit that, it was also vibrating untill i take off the battery so, i disasemble it and take out all the parts to dry them with a hair blower, then put it all back together. Well the cellphone turns on and it works as normal but screen is black, i mean only backlight is on but with no video at all,
so i conect it to my tv using an mhl adapter and all the info is on the tv i mean i hav image on the tv but not on the cellphone, i try the display with another motherboard of a damaged tx that i bought and found that the display works well on the other cellphone but not in mine so the problem must be on the motherboard of my cell i guess i hope someone can help me with this.

wow less is more lol, I'm going to suggest a stupid but most probably, the correct solution, recheck the cables inside the phone and make sure they ain't broke, or are in tidy

[Q] poolparty :(

Guys I have a serious problem. I went to a poolparty today and as it is expected I took my Z1 for underwater shots.
The phone was working perfectly but when took it in the land the screen would go mad. After this I rebooted it after a while and everything was okay again. I closed my phone and I continued parting. But when i took it again I noticed some bubbles in the camera glass. I booted my phone everything was working but when it came the time to write my pin the screen went black(but still working). I rebooted and the same thing happened.
I took it and dried it but nothing changed. Any ideas what do please???? (when the phone was in the water it didnt pass the 20cm and the ports were firmly closed)

Unfortunately, common issue on Z1 - if you still have warranty - use it.
Camera lens will dry eventually but you should ask for your warranty rights.
Only thing what's important is -
Open bith flaps and check those water markers, if they are still white you have every right to demand new device.
If one of them or both are red, then you are screwed...
Water passed here and flaps weren't closed right.

Poolparty...? Σοβαρά ρε Μήτσο ?
Warramty should cover this.

Touchscreen broken

Yesterday I tried to take some pictures under water in the pool. (I always check the pressure test before dip the phone). On the evening I noticed the touchscreen wasn't working properly.

Water indicators are ok and it doesn't seem water has infiltrated in the phone. I thought it could be a software bug and I resetted the OS but it didn't work. What did it happen?
P.S. Phone is already in the rice

I would instantly send it back to sony if FW update did not solve it and get it replaced. Seems like water got it somehow still.
