So, My diamond woke up me this morning, as usual. but problem...
my Diamond's screen didn't respond. and seems like under screen there is like vaccum. whole digitizer is pushed down, haven't had this kind of problem before. How can I get rid of that?
Last night things worked great.....
You can`t get rid of this problem. It`s a HTC known issue.
A friend who ownes a Touch Pro has the same problem. If he puts his headset to recharge during the night face down , it will cause the interior of the touchscreen to vacuum wich renders his phone operable , but without touchscreen capabilites ( for a short while ).
I replied thinking you left your phone face down during the night. If not , then my solutions is invalid.
well i left my phone charging whitout pouch onto glass table, so that screen was down.. yes the problem disappeared but about 2-3 weeks my phones screen was dead because here(in estonia) january s temperatures are as low as -30C and screen needed heat to come out of vaccum. it happens occasionally(never happened before). to conclude it I bought new screen and changed screen myself
Alright so basically 5 weeks ago I had my phone in the pool with me, just a shallow backyard pool. And somehow water got into the flaps tripping the water indicators.
I felt it overheat and the camera button being held down, so i basically turned it off and drained its battery. For a few days it was fine, but couldnt hold a charge and everything was fine, but some water in the screen. And then it decided to invert and flip itself. From then on it hasn't been turned on.
I sent it off to Sony but they send it right back to me unfixed, which kinda confused me, because i got a message saying the Claim was approved and they'll be sending a new device out to me. And then when i recieved it, it was my phone, with the loudspeaker grille nowhere to be found.
So now ive decided to take things into my own hands. Where do you guys think the problem is?
Currently its like this
No Water In Screen
Phone Works Perfectly
Screen Mirrored and Flipped
Top of Digitizer not responding so cant pull down menu
Ill be opening it up pretty soon so Im just trying to get an idea of where i should focus my search.
The speaker is also where the screen/digitizer is connected at.. so if there is no loudspeaker there you may have a problem because of that!
Also opening the phone is very tedious and I advise against that.. they should fix it!
There has to be some kind of app that can flip the screen.....
I have had trouble with my z3 compact after using it under water. Initially the phone's touch screen stopped working after a few minutes of taking it out of the water and after repairing it with PC Companion it started working only for an hour and then it stopped responding again. I did the same again and now it is working fine. After running diagnostics I found out that some sensors including gps, accelerometer and gyroscope do not work. I can see something like a red square in the inside next to the sim card port and i do not remember if that was red before the phone went under water( it was not the first time). The flaps were closed properly and i doubt water went in since there were no signs of any. The only problem was that the touch screen was unresponsive, and has happened before briefly so I did not take it seriously but now I am worried if the sensors can be fixed under warranty if the indicator is indeed red and water has gotten in the phone.

That red square should be white, so unfortunately your phone is water damaged
Fortunately for you, if you are positive the flaps were closed you can get it repaired under warranty (If you want to make sure do a pressure test in the service menu)
Hi everyone,
I have an Xperia Z, and yesterday I've dunked it twice in a swimming pool for like no more than 5 sec. all the laps were closed but the water got in anyway, it stopped working for a while then after one day It dried out and I used Hair drier to dry it more now the phone works just fine but the power button doesn't seem to respond. instead, the volume up button can now start the phone and the volume down can shut it down, the speaker does not work anymore, when I plugg it to the charger the power indicator doesn't go on. And the touch screen is working but the brightness on it is too low barely can see anything, and yes I checked the brightness options and evrything is exactly how it's supposed to be.
So, did anyone had this problem and will the screen regain it's britghness in the next few days or I should maybe replace it.
Help me please.
Thank you
Hi.
Well, coming from a similar experience, I'll have to tell you that I had my display panel replaced. Though, mine wouldn't work at all. The phone would turn on and even give out notifications (with sound) but with no screen. And it was only after the replacement that I found out I don't have vibration anymore (someone said, however, that my vibration panel is dead due to the overuse of glow for closing the back cover).
Well the vibration on my phone works just fine but the speakers are dead though
My OP3 was kept in a bag (water resistant), during a heavy rain, I thought the phone is safe in that bag. But some water got leaked into the bag and the phone was kept in the bag for almost 1hour.
When I checked the phone after reaching home, it's got turned off(enough charge was there), I tried to turn it on, it did light up for a while and then turned off. I used a hair dryer to dry it and kept it in rice for 2 days. After that, it turned on normally, I tried to charge it. I got a call after few minutes of charging, spoke for a minute, but after the call the screen didn't light up. My phone is working fine except the screen. touch is working fine, I can unlock using the touch screen (It has a pattern lock), I can use google assistant to make calls, play music. But just that screen is not lighting up.
I am not sure what to do now, I think the issue is because of some short circuit. I don't think it's a right question to ask, can it be fixed without the whole screen replacement? (I think screen costs too much for my budget), also please share me if you have any links for buying the screen.
Thanks, everyone, have a nice day.
It's very likely that there is "only" some corrosion by the display connector because of the water. This probably causes the short circuit. If you can see some corrosion inside the phone (especially under the display connector) on the board, clean it carefully with a soft toothbrush and Isoprpyl alcohol (from the pharmacy).
Worked for me on my old Xperia.
Good luck!

Open up the phone and clean it out.. Might be some corrosion indeed. Watch JerryRigEverything, he explains it very well. I wonder, how much water came inside?

Yes mate, this is your only option, to open up the phone and check for rust. Be sure to dissconect the battery, and use coke in case you find any corrosion or rust. Googd luck
