[Q] Regarding self-cracking screen problem - Sony Xperia ZR

Does anyone know which batch of Xperia ZR phones have this problem solved?
I'm planning to buy this phone sometime in the future and would like to know if this "hidden feature" has been finally removed. The price of this phone is still considerable and I want to have a hassle free experience.

When a phone has/had 1 bug/malfunction people will do anything to bring that negative point up. You really shouldn't worry about it AT ALL.
Since 434 came out I haven't heard anyone about it. And even @ 350 I barely saw people that faced the problem. Imo it's exaggerated.
It's your choice if you are not sure go try it in a shop first or ask anything you would want to now forehand and we will try to answer it. I haven't heard anyone complaining about sod, only before .350 and some of them.
I think it's a great device. But take into consideration that the screen time is between 4-5h, if you want more you might want to look an Amoled screen. Also it's worth saying that standby battery is Great.

Screen cracked
After SOD now new dangrous problem occure. Internal screen crack. Now any one tell me how many hand sets affected with internal or back

I am going to buy the phone when i heard this problem. Now tell me should i wait to resolve this or this cracjed screen problem is on very limited sets. HELP me and suggest me. I am unbale to decide weather to buy this hand set or not. Because of internal
screen cracked problem. I am very affariad if this problem will occured, i have not much money to repair it. Very hardely to mange the money to buy this phone.
Since the 434 update and now even the 253 update the sod and reboots are fixed never had one Sony addressed the issue quickly and when u get a Xperia z make sure u update the software if it isn't already updated.

You're in the wrong forum mate.
This is Xperia z not Samsung...

Never had a SOD or a freze or something like that. Everything is fine with my C6603. I am running Stock Rom and use to have root on the previous FW-version. never had any problems.
SOD issue is solved long ago, the happen also minimum for this device. Nothing to worried on this, it is not massive issue like happen in Samsung Galaxy S III.
SOD issue had occur in Samsung Galaxy S II, S III, NOTE II, ASUS PadFone 2 also.
As for screen crack, that is user behavior cause, any phone can happen this.

first, be sure to have a pocket large enough for the Z to fit in
second, make sure your movement is not compromised by the Z in the pocket
third, either get a bumper protector(whatever you call it) or leave it as it is(this is what I did)

[Q] How to know if Z1 is fake or Original

hello,
I am looking to buy an Xperia Z1 from a guy and I want to know what are the differences between the fake and the original Z1.
How to know if it is not a fake ?
it is the 1st time I am going to get a sony Xperia Smartphone, is there any other thing that I should know ? concerning bootloader, etc ... (for example how to know if it is sim and bootloader unlocked or not) ? knowing that am gonna root and flash custom recovery.
thks
in my opinion you can tell by just touching it. I have never ever seen a fake z1, that aluminum is something that fakers don't want to spend on probably. Also, try dialing *#*#7378423#*#* it should bring up the service menu where you can see all the firmware and phone details as well as the option to test the sensors of the device. Also, IF YOU ARE BRAVE ENOUGH, bring a cup of water. Close all ports and SINK IT. should still work 100% after.
Never saw a Fake one and never heard about someone buy one as this kind of tech it cost to much to the fakers probably. So don't worry, the probability of buy fake Z1 are close to 0% but still the probability to buy a defective one. It will be good to test it in your hands first or if you buy on internet use Paypal and an Platform which work with them (eBay).

[Q] ZR > Bluetooth > MotherBoard Replaced > Again Bluetooth

Hi Guys,
Its really frustrating and headache with ZR Bluetooth issues. I have posted the below on Sony official forum regarding the same issue.
I need your valuable advice. Please suggest asap, because Warrantee of my phone is lapsing in 10 Days.
Any Possible solution please:
Shall I try Custom rom?
Shall I give for again replacement?
Shall I downgrade Firmware?
Below is the stuff I posted on Sony Forum. It will give u clear idea.
Code:
I got my Phone's motherboard replaced (God knows with a new one or old) due to the issue of Bluetooth and Wi-Fi wasn't working.
First of all, Sony Authorized Customer Centers in India are handled by so illiterate people. They don't know how to handle customer. I don’t know why they are always in hurry with listening properly to customer.
So when I asked for the issue with Wi-Fi and explained her that this can work if I put pressure under NFC it can work. She wasn't at all interested to listen and told Motherboard will be changed.
After 10 days they gave me a new set, I can clearly recognize it was a new out of the box.
So my Bluetooth worked for 10 mins and again its dead.. After two day it again worked 10 mins and again dead...
Wi-Fi is working fine....
So shall I again ask to replace it/motherboard replace/or fix or Whatever the **bleep** they want to do with it.
I feel its worldwide issue with this phone. How promising it will be that it will work even after going to them?
Sony Listen please:
Is it a s/w, driver, ROM issue?
If its S/W issue> release a statement that you can't solve the issue to your all customers and stop producing ZR units
Is it a H/w issue?
If its H/W issue> How WiFi and FM are working fine? Without a glitch?
Clear your thoughts in official statement.
For my phone warrantee is only 10 days to go and after this voila.
So please suggest shall I go with again one more replacement or the solution they will do. But I'm pretty much sure they don't know WHAT EXACTLY THE ISSUE is. Bunch of losers hired by Sony.
And Sony: Lesson learnt.
I will even go for Nokia 1100(if it comes back: P) instead of going any phone with you. I have been frustrated a lot from your junk of electronic piece.
If your authorized member can comment on this thread, a bit of hope to provide?
Thank You,
Urgent suggestions please.
Thank You,

I don't know whether this may sound new to you or not but Xperia ZR can not be repaired.... It can only be replaced with another Xperia ZR from the service center. If someone claims from the service center that they have changed the mother board of your phone then either they are lying or they haven't don **** to your phone. As this phone can only be opened in special environment. As once opened in normal environment, it loses the most important feature. It won't be waterproof anymore. I researched a lot before buying this phone. I have got my phone replaced already. And even my girl friend has this same phone. She also got it changed because of the same WiFi issue....
My suggestion to you would be, visit the service center away from your place. Do find the service center receipt from the last repairs as they may ask for records. Ask them to simply change it....
Relax bro. As I suspect, they didn't even open your phone and simply said they changed the mother board of your phone. This handset would be replaced with a new one.... Do write about your experience.... So that other people from India also get to know about it.... :good: :good: Wish you luck.... :good: :good: :good: :good:
Was living with the Bluetooth issue, postponing the resetting, which was reputed to solve it. 4 days back, got the wifi issue too. Factory reset did not help. Also noticed that sd card did not mount as mass storage device. Since the issue is almost a month after the 230 upgrade and the. 0.20 mb mystery upgrade, any chance that the issues are related to 230 firmware?
Have not yet triedmass storage mode after gactory reset,
Any body with wifi issues tried downgrading from 230? All my upgrades have been through OTA.

MY Bluetooth dont work since a month... Been working on and off for 6 month...
Wifi had assox reject error for a few month but now its solved. Wifi works great, better reception than my xz1... Dunno wth is wrong with this phone, but bluetooth and wifi issue are unrelated.
Found the right spot to excite Wifi works now. Bluetooth is still dead.
Update -- looking inside the backcover, there is a ridge running inside. Thinking of making a washer like round to maintain the pressure on the g spot. Any ideas?

Recently bought Z3+ this early november, reason why i bought this overheating phone because it will get Nougat update(likely, unless Sony drops the support) and couldn't afford Z5 or any of its younger bros, anyway i have a "deffective" flap, since it gets loose often and easily, been googling this..... youtube that..... no info regarding changing flap of Z3+, don't wanna send this to Sony Service Center since it's in city far from my house(really far) and it's the closest SSC I've known, plus don't know how long would it take just to repair flap.....we all know Sony is bad at customer service....well mostly, so i decided to just buy replacement part, anyone can tell me how to remove and install the flap?, just write it down in the comment, video is much more appreciated though..
