Hey guys, I broke my black Xperia Z's back glass and I was wondering if you guys would have some creative ideas of what to do?
One example, though it would only work on white ones, is this:

Except for being annoying when putting the phone in its dock for the night, this is such a cool idea!
Ideally, though, you should just avoid cracking the glass

could you not put a mirror like screen protector on the back? Not the most creative but probably the only one that will cover the cracks on the purple or black phones.

It might work if you use acrylic paint, like they paint models with. That rubs off quite easily, but you'd have to work fast, as it also drys quite quickly.
I used white acrylic on some airsoft guns I had, to highlight the lettering on the body, and it was very hardwearing.
Hey,
I've found different Ultra Thin cases for the Xperia Z(see HERE), which are just 0.3 milimeter, it will keep the paint on the phone and keep it from scratches probably but not much more. Does anybody know if they are available for the Xperia SP?
I would love to know
Greetings

Any link? I'd love to buy some for my SP
I need some help. I wan to buy a screen protector or a tempered glass cover for my Moto Z play. It already has a few small scratches over its screen and I would like to prevent more. So please give me links to some which buy online in India. I did found some but the reviews made me doubtful, particularly the fact that some part of screen is left uncovered. so please help me.

The gap is necessary.
I think all 3 Zs can use the same one, a theory of mine, not yet confirmed.
Look at the other forums.
I too am ready to buy.
as i compared tempered glasses on ebay for Z and Z Play, the difference is upper part - they both have flash and front camera but switched between models
Crap I am looking at selling my Moto g4 plus and buying this phone. Are you guys saying that this phone doesn't like tempered glass screen protectors and doesn't have a bumper case that is compatible with the Moto mods?

Incipio and Verizon (in the US) do a bumper case you can use with Moto Mods.
I use tempered glass, just that the edges are beveled and it will show a slight 'edge'. Same for other glass protectors.

Would you mind linking the tempered glass screen protector please? Based off what I am reading in the other threads it looks like the screen protectors take away a lot of the screen responsiveness.

I picked up a pair of Omoton brand tempered glass for $8 on Amazon. They are "meh" at best. First one I missed a spot of dust mid screen, tried to pull to reapply, and cracked the corner. Not totally unusual. Second one went on clean, but had 3 big bubbles - worked their way out after 3 days. Because of the 2.5d taper of the device screen, there's an unattached "ring" around the edge of the screen (maybe 2-3 mm wide) where the protector doesn't fully attach. Screen responsiveness is mildly diminished - rarely causes any serious issue, but missed touches/swipes do happen.
Tempted to pull and run naked, but it's tolerable for now and I like the added protection, since I don't have insurance.

Same one as the poster above

Two pack. Screen responsiveness seems fine, and I'm happy that the screen is safe.
try this one, it covers almost all (made for z force but fits moto z play too)

Does anybody know if there is a tempered glass privacy shield for Z Play? Like the ones that prevent people from seeing the screen when they look at it in an angle.
Sparin is fabulous

I just got my Sparin screen protector on my MZP, and I couldn't be more satisfied. It's a perfectly molded glass screen protector, and comes with a top notch installation kit and tools. Patience and applying in as dust free place as you can find are key.
I didn't even have bubbles to work out after applying, and the edges stared to stick after just a few times of pushing on them.

I was able to pry mine up, wipe off and put back on. Lol
Update l rinsed sticky side with distilled water, any caught under glass goes away in a week or so
Thanks to those of you who suggested the sparin screen protectors.
Got mine a couple days ago, and installed today. Definitely a slightly smaller coverage area than the Omoton I replaced. The sparin does give me a halo of unattached edge still, but it's smaller than the omoton, and most importantly almost nonexistent on the bottom edge - so hopefully won't hook on my pocket and peel up like the omoton.
Nicely packaged, good install kit. Install went fine - 2 good sized bubbles toward one edge initially, but they both worked themselves out after a couple hours.
Screen sensitivity is a little better than with the omoton protector, but still slightly diminished from naked.
Overall, would buy again.

I have just receive the second one.
Good:
- no halo effect.
Bad:
-Does not fit properly, the black part at the bottom is to big and it covers the screen
- Camrea and flash holes doesnt fit either, I had to sacrifice a tiny part of the flash in order to have the camera visible (not a big deal, flash works with no problem and pictures look good)
Here is a picture using a game as reference, on the right part, you can se I have 1228 coins, but in fact I have 12280 so... well a part is lost.
As you can see I tried to place the glass as closest I could to the bottom and you can also see the camera and flash holes, that part its really making me nervous because I really need that to be centered (despite it works great). I have a problem with that, maybe I´m crazy :laugh:
Well.... for 3-4 euros I paid its not that bad but this glass its not for Z play. I dont know If someone tried on a normal Z.
oh! about the "feeling" its not as soft as naked or using the omoton but its OK (Im just an average user maybe someone find it worst than OK).
I wanted to try the sparin one but here on Spain I cant find it, only Omoton.
Sorry if i made any grammar mistake (I´m still learning! )
EDIT: Added game screenshot so you can see how much screen is lost, not much to be honest and now the navbar looks smaller! (you can see 100% the buttons and its fully operative, maybe this should go the "good" part )
Thats something I really miss from gravity box, making smaller the navbar, the centered clock and the traffic monitor. Im 100% stock right now.
@drvoje : Did you tried the first screen protector you mentioned? how does it look?

Like like that screen protector was made for the Moto Z/force, which have different bezel sizes on top and bottom than the Moto Z Play.
sorry for late reply, at that time that was best protector because it covers most of the screen and its not that expensive... i said that is made for z forse but it can fit at z play (ofc they are not same phones and its not 100% perfect but still better option then most of protectors - which have whole mic/speaker side opened)
now for camera glass protector, first of all i want to say when you install it it stays flat, you will never even notice its there
but when i installed it, dust was bellow and i did not do it right on first try, so now when i take pictures with flash turned on they become white...
now i ordered 2 more, and im expecting them to come soon, so i will install it again and i will let you know
there is no point to send you pictures because you will never know its there on camera
UPDATE for screen protector: I oredered this one, seems like best option:

I also received it today! Indeed it is thin. Did you order any covers / screenguard for it ?
Nothing good is available for Z2 force as of now. I ordered one tempered glass from Flipkart, yet to reach me. Since the display is plastic it is not scratch proof. Need to apply a screen guard ASAP. Covers I think you can go for any Z2 play cases, not tried though.

if you want to use a moto mod verizon makes a bumper case that you can use while using a mod like extra battery, which i keep on all the time. BTW as for screen protectors, xtremeguard in ebay, #1 source for all my screen protectors
