Waterproofing - Xperia Z4/Z3+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So how does the waterproofing of this device goes? Does anyone have problems with waterproof? Just want to know if this capless USB is really better than the old one.

simply works as advertised. just make sure the port is dry before connecting any usb device/cable as precaution.

Turtlebeach Setup Question

I have a 360 and I use the 360 wireless adapter which currently occupies the USB port on the back.
I see that the Turtlebeach requires me to plug this into the back USB port.
What's the best way to go about this? No, I will not use Ethernet cable or get the new Xbox.

Would a USB hub work?
Max. (From my Galaxy 2)
I have to look for a hub but I don't know if that'll work. This headset is hella complicated.

No it doesn't need to be plugged into the back port. You can use any USB port (even one from your computer). The back port is recommended because it only provides power thus freeing up the other USB ports for things that don't only need power for
Or at least I think so. Either way any USB on your Xbox will work for your Turtle Beaches.
Cool. I will try it now. This thing is a beast. I didn't think people took mics this serious. My GF got it for me.

What model is it?

Not changing

My Xperia Z doesn't charge as soon as I connect the charging cable?? I have to move the cable for a while before I get the suitable position for the charging! At first I thought the problem was at the cable but it wasn't due to the fact that it charges my brothers Galaxy S3 normally.! Does anybody else having this problem? My Xperia Z is not rooted.. Anybody know something?

You destroy your micro USB in phone.
sounds like an issue with the actual usb port on the phone might be damaged
Richy99, why you repeat what I said? You don't must repeat and refresh solved threads
Firstly Thank you for your answer. But I don't understand How can I destroy my usb port without doing anything?

The pins inside micro usb bent a bit so if u have the tools and knowledge u can fix that yourself otherwise go to.service. Its 5min job. If they want to.send it for.repairs you will wait

@ kcannonball before you send it off for repair try a different cable from another phone as sony's cable tend to have a bit of play in them, and if the other cable doesn't work then you will definitely know its the usb port at fault, i had problems on my old xperia x10 with the usb port/cable and using a different cable sorted it out.
Edit...after reading your post again it definitely sounds like the cable to me as I had the exact same problems on my old x10 the usb port has got a slight bit of play in it and a different cable will sort it out even though your cable will work on a different phone if you check with your friends phone you'll notice the usb cable is a tight fit and doesn't wobble about as they use a slightly smaller usb port that what sony use on there phone's.

I dont have enough knowledge so I am thinking of asking the sony center about it. However, today it started charging as soon as I connected it with the same cable. I couldnt understand whats going on??
I will check with another cable soon let me see if it works..
I have another question also: there is a white point near the usb port, what is that??
The little white strip is for sony to tell if water has got in as once it gets any water on it it will turn a pinkish red colour

Mine is pinkish red colour but I haven't used my phone in water at all. Does that turns to pinkish in every kind of water?

Loose micro USB jack anyone?

Hi, sorry I'm only just getting the hang of the app.
When my Z1 is plugged in, the micro USB feels quite loose inside the port.
I can easily wriggle it around, it does not feel as secure as the lightning port felt in my iPhone 5.
Could I please get some options on this? Is this normal or is mine starting to break?
I do handle the phone a lot while it is plugged in and the port is definitely in an awkward position once it's plugged in...

I don't have problems with USB port but I ordered magnetic charger cable because I will go crazy if I continue with opening those water protection caps every evening just to charge my device.
So... to save and preserve your port I would recommend that cable.
It cost almost nothing on ebay 5-10$ only
Sent from my Z1
Can I just bump this up? Ideally, I would like as many people as possible, nearly all of us own z1's, to just feel how their charging cables sit inside the port when the USB cable is plugged in,
Does it wriggle round a bit? Does it feel very secure?
Mine is somewhat loose in the port and I'd like to know if this is normal or if mine is breaking....

Thanks
How annoying for me... And for all of us, because I've had my phone 7 weeks and thought it started off firm...
But it's now loose and that is purely from handling the phone while plugged in. It's on a weird location the port... Awkward.
I got an idea it's not very well fitted... It may be just a one off tho,,,
Sent from my C6903 using xda app-developers app
mine too, i guess because using the phone while pluggined. better use magnetic charging
i might have use my micro USB port less than 15 times, most the time its on magnetic cable and its not loose.

No, search the z3c forum or google in general for loose headphone jack I think you might have a faulty unit.

No ATT doesnt cover that.
Also I cant say I have ever had a single issue with the cable. To be honest if they are failing it is because people are misusing them.
I've posted about how my cables have just started falling out Anthere have been others having the same issue I'm on my 5th cable in less than a year

Out of the dozens of people I know with this device not a single one has ever had to have it replaced. If you are going threw that much then you either have a faulty device USB port or you are being to ruff with it. Which is very common really. People just jerk the cable out which causes damage. Also make sure to official cables. knock offs are not made that great.
Ditto - still on my original charging cable.
If the port on your charger has become loose (in other words, your cable fits snugly on other phones, but not on your N6), you may be able to get ATT to fix it.
Same here. Original cable. Although my daily charging is wireless
