Hello everyone, I have a problem with a LT25i of a colleague of mine, in practice, fell and broke the display.
On the net I've seen different models, some of you have experience on this? is there any tutorial to disassemble and reassemble everything?
If you have any suggestions on where to take and what I'd be grateful.
too expensive imo... i would just buy a 2G dumbphone and save up to buy a new phone altogether... that is unless your friend is a diehard Xperia V user.

on the web I've seen them even at 50 €, it is easy to replace?

If the LCD is OK and it's just the front screen/digitizer that needs replacing, then this 'could' be sourced for around USD15-20.00
I've replaced an Xperia X10i digitizer myself and that only cost around USD18.00.
It was more an exercise in science to see if I could do it, than a requirement/cost exercise, thus practicing on an old unused phone in my case. :fingers-crossed:

Hello community,
Im just disappointed! Why? I'll tell you. I bought the Xperia SP 4-5 weeks ago.
I found some processing errors like:
1 small dead pixel on the right side of the touchscreen. (It sucks!)
The back cover doesnt fit 100%.
The back cover creaks sometimes, when I push on it.
I got the white Xperia SP and the aluminum frame got also an error. The color of the coating spalled in some places.
Picture: (made by another user with the same problem)--- http://s7.directupload.net/file/d/3352/taq33t6j_jpg.htm
I didn't drop the phone or something else.I always handled it very well.
Btw. that WLAN range issue sucks also a lot.
I will never buy any shi* from Sony again.
Sorry, but Im just angry! I paid 350€ and then this...
My questions: Got anyone else problems with the SP like me? Could I reclaim the phone because of that processing errors and the wifi error?
If under warranty I would send back because of dead pixel/screen probs.
Sent from my C5303 using xda premium
Just wondering... Always thought, that Sony is a premium brand, which stands for quality, lol.
Maybe they are, but not on smartphones.
I`ll contact my provider and describe them my problems, hope, I'll get a new one without any errors.
Ty for your answer!

You must be under warranty!!! take it Back dont even think about it and demand for a new device. I paid 290 for it and i live in Greece (the most expensive place on earth) so i would not like it either if it sucked as a phone.
As for Sony not to be a fanboy but all my phones were bought from Sony (and Ericsson) and i was pretty pleased with the construction quallity.
Dead pixels suck, go get a new one since it should be under warranty. The back cover creaking is quite a common problem (I have it too), so I guess you can either get a hard case that fits, or just live with it.

Yea, you're right! The camera is also bad, but the cameria isn't very important for me.
I already contacted the provider, where I bought it, via E-Mail. Still waiting for an answer.
Hi I got my xperia z in March and on new years day the phone screen broke in my pocket with a hairline crack and became unusable. I have a very nice phone case to try stop things like that from happening. Anyways I sent my phone in to repair and they told me it would cost R3500 to fix (321.69$). I live in South Africa and when ever I try phone around to get more help they just redirect me to the next person who can not help me. What can I do any help thanks

You can repair it yourself, I think that's the best thing you can do if you don't want to pay that much.
Only downside is that there is a big chance that your phone isn't 'waterproof' anymore after you've fixed it.
Here is a tutorial:

And a place where you can buy parts:

Pretty pricey, but by far not as pricey as getting it repaired.
There are more places you can buy prats like Ebay.
Hello
Hi. I am from Romania and i bought 3 weeks ago a Sony Xperia Z3 from Germany. I have guarantee. Yesterday i saw that all the back glass from my phone is crashed. My phone didn`t fall down on the floor or something like this. I read on network many problems like this and i know that the problem is from my pocket. I don`t know that guarantee will repair this thing. What do you think?

I have seen same issue with T2 ultra in my friend's phone .. The display cracked inside pocket.... I thing that some kind of force applied to it while my frnd handling his bike with the phone inside the pocket....
And here in India it cost around Rs. 10,000 to fix it...
Well, this is my first thread, if i got this in the wrong section, im really really sorry!
Like the title says, my display isnt working like it should, i can use the touch (even play music and stuff) but i cant see anything, do i need to buy a new display? If so, i searched for it and its selling like one piece, display and touch, and i dont know if im going to get scammed with the "repair" in a local store and just re-connect the display or something like that, i wanna know before i take the xperia to that place, a quick help guys! :good: :silly:
And again, im really sorry if i screwed this forum with a misplaced thread
(It got wet, then i just left it in the car with a ziploc filled with rice for a week, and powered it on, everything works but the display the soul of the xperia :/ )
Thanks for reading!

I had the same problem too bro, but let me tell you taht your display is fine don´t spend your money buying a new one, i tried mine with another cellphone i bought just like mine and the display was good then i send it to repair and the guy told me that one of the five cristals of que mother board that gives the video signal was burned and that´s easy to fix but the problem is to find the spare, it´s a very tiny piece and the only solution i see is to find a damaged tx and take that cristal to repair mine, while that happens i´m using the one i bought is just the same and newer but i would like to repair the other one to sell it and recover some money you know.

So its a little piece from the motherboard?! ): i was thinking that only a display-related stuff, not a tiny cristal from the motherboard ): that means everythibg in my Xperia v is going to get lost? ): the store told me that the fix of a new display is $600 in my country, (like 45-50 usd) but i wanna open it by myself and rebuild it from scratch, the thing is that i dont know how and i dont have the tiny screwdrivers xD
So, your advice? Remember, its a xperia v (lt25i)

Well you didn´t say that it was a v, but i guess that is the same problem but is wear cause v is water resistant unlike my tx, my advice y that you try out the display on another cellphone in my case the display wasn´t damaged so don´tspend your money without knowing well what´s wrong
Xda members, please help! share your experience if you had a similar or the same problem with your xperia v, i wanna fix it, im using a crappy phone while the other one is in a necessary vacation :crying:
Help a bro, and a bro will help you too :good: :laugh:
Hi! I have had my device more than two years now so I'm not super sad, but yesterday when I took it out of my pocket it had some cracks in the screen, not very visible cracks, but apparently enough to destroy the touchscreen functionallity. I think I know what caused the cracks and it was my own fault but that's beside the point.
It will cost me $150 to get the screen repaired, and I'm wondering if it's worth it for that cost? I have looked at new phones and it seems hard to find anything that beats the Z1 in terms of hardware for 150 USD, or even 250, or even 350..
So maybe it's worth getting it repaired. What do you think? Thanks.
how about the c5 ultra or m5 aqua?

Both of those phones seems to not be available like anywhere here in Sweden where I live. And 6" screen is too big for me. I didn't look up the picing of those phones, but I assume that they cost way over 150 USD.
Maybe it's worth sending it in for repair, otherwise it's a bit sad to throw away it when it's hardware is fully working, but just that I can't use it because of the broken touch. There are some downsides though, that they can't guarantee that it willl remain water-proof, and that the Z1 probably isn't going to get Android 6.
I have compared the hardware specs of Xperia Z1 against some other phones and it seems to be holding up pretty well, despite the fact that it's a 3 year old phone, or am I wrong?
If you don't want to spend money on a new phone then it would be worth having the screen replaced.
While you're at it, I'd also replace the battery with a quality replacement too, and shouldn't cost much more because that would have to come out anyway to get to the screen.
I've just replaced the battery on my Z1 because it wasn't holding charge anymore.
The Z1 is a good phone. I wouldn't bin it because of a broken screen.

Thanks for your answer and thanks for the advice of replacing the battery at the same time. Then it will be like brand new again
Ok, the total cost for Screen replacement + Battery replacement would be 218 USD, perhaps I'll get a discount because I'm already replacing the screen, but if not, 218 USD is not too bad.
I can't find any phone that has faster CPU, more ram, and overall better specs for that cost so.. yeah
1) Even now a new z1 will not cost any less than 350$.
2) You can never get a decent phone under or near 150$
Some midrangers can be bought in 250-350$. But don't compare them with recently demoted former flagship.
3) The only hope of getting a good phone with cheapest rates is with chinese oems

Guy's, question my Sony Xperia Z1 back camera is just showing black
screen when trying to take a photo… I think the people who fixed my screen damaged my camera or I damaged the sensor….
Since I have a AT&T LG G3, do u think I should replace the Z1 camera or unlock the LG G3 for T-mobile… Screen replacement is $100 I've paid, a camera replacement is $70 is it worth it…
Thinking That I can just use the $70 to unlock my AT&T LG G3 instead…

You can always buy a screen from eBay, just for 50$, not a big deal. I have changed it myself. good experience!

You might want to complain the guy who fixed your screen or by making him check if your camera is connected to the mainboard? It's not easy to damage the camera I guess, but the thing is that you don't even need to touch the camera sensor to repair the screen...
To OP, I think 150$ is too much, sadly :/
By the way, mine broke too ! I will be getting this probably: http://www.ebay.ca/itm/LCD-Display-...630061?hash=item1e97e8b86d:g:TycAAOSwDNdVn3z3

Sure but all parts inside like speakers, headphones port etc. are removed. I checked local post and if they accept it as letter not package, shipping will cost around 5$. I can give You frame that looks like new for another 5$.

well, i was trying to prey under the LCD , excited for replacing the new frame that i'd get from you, but the lcd cracked, i think i didn't heat up well. i know using a hairdryer was not the right solution, so i checked the prices of LCD's and it's too much to invest for a replacement, so i decided to let go about it... well the PCB is still functional and i'd sell it for you, but i need to check how much the shipping fees, if you wait me until monday because the postal office doesn't work tomorrow, then i let you know. concerning the price of the mainboard, since you were generous with me i would ask you to suggest a price and i'd sell it for you
until then, wait a respond from me for shipping and all stuff
thanks for all and sorry for my late responds. just busy at work!
