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
:silly:

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

Water detecting strips under the flaps RED

Soo, my xperia z fell in a sink with water, the flaps were closed, etc. The phone wasnt damaged and everything is working, etc. But one of the strips has turned red :l
Warranty lost if the strip is red but phone not damaged? How to get it back white? Other suggestions? Anyone had this happen to their phone?

Now that's pretty odd. Hmm, maybe its nothing. Try this,if you are running on an old firmware install the latest from the update centre,if you already are using the latest firmware try resetting it,not just the settings but with the data being wiped as well.

I said it was a software problem caused, you said "The phone wasnt damaged and everything is working, etc." or did you forget? Now that I know you got water in the phone it really is water.

Yeah saw that. You are right now he knows that his hardware is damage and not his software.

Dude I think u will lose ur warranty if the strips change colour from white to red. U have to fight with service center asking them its waterproof. Or ask them to check it because water damage can be solved before it starts to rust.

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.

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

The socket itself is waterproof, which is why there is no need for a port cover. You should be fine/

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!
