It was already on that. Turned out to be a hardware defect and returned the phone.

[Q] I changed touch screen and now I got a wierd error

Hello!
I have a weird error on my diamond 2 - I dropped it on the floor, so the touch screen got broke. I bought a new original one and replaced it as myself, which wasn't that difficult. The strange thing is that now when I move my finger up and down on touch screen the pointer moves side to side, and when i move finger from side to side the pointer goes up and down...? It's just like touch screen was rotated 90 degrees. Have tried to do a factory reset via a guide I found but it is still the same. Is it supposed to recalibrate the phone somehow?
Could this be a fysical connection error?
I tried to put cable in the other way but it was to short, and I can't figure out how to put it another than it is now. If i try to force it around 180 degrees it will be ripped off and break.
is your problem already solved? i replaced my cover as well. i think the connection ot digitizer is not pluged in correctly, it is not in the middle. it is also possible that your replacement is scrap

I tried to go maneuver via the menu but it was impossible. But I didn't give up and Google instead and found this - "You need to simultaneously hold down Volume Up and Volume Down on the side of the device, and while holding them both down, just tap the screen and it will go straight to the alignment screen."
This works and my screen is now aligned, but still I got it's 90 degree ccw rotated.
I forgot to mention that i have replaced digitizer two times - one before this one, reason was i thought first one was broken/faulty

Problem in the status bar

Has anyone had this problem of the status bar does not go down with the vertical mode screen on the Xperia Z3 compact? Only down after a long drag your finger on the screen, but the strange thing is that in landscape mode screen down normally. What can it be? Can someone help me?

are you sure the upper part of the touch screen is working properly? that was my problem and i don't recall dropping my phone too hard to mess up the touch screen....did factory reset and nope it was definitely the touchscreen
My already dropped some times, but there is nothing wrong in its outside and its functionality remains excellent taking this error now. And the status bar down the normal horizontally, so it's not the hardware. It's a software bug and also does little more than a year have the appliance. I've seen some reports of the same problem in the Xperia line on the Internet, just not speak the solution exactly. I took an original firmware and put one here too, I do not know if it has to do with the problem.
the top of the screen is the normal friend, as I said, the landscape mode screen functions normally, even when I'm playing a game, the problem is a software error, if the display hardware would have committed it all
Can I get rid of it, if I install any custom ROM?
It doesn't work... plz help me... my ph is sony xperia z3 model no: D6653
Anyone who cannot swipe down notifications or quick settings, due to a broken digitiser, can follow these instructions:
[emoji7]
Download 'All in one Gestures' app from the playstore.
Go to the 'SWIPE' tab.
Enable.
Under 'Edges' , select 'Top Area'.
Then via the apps settings, choose 'Personalization'.
Now under 'Swipe Area', go into 'Edge Preference.
Make 'Opacity' 0%
With 'Edge Sensitivity' start from 0% and keep moving the slide left until the swipe down works, mine is set at 90px.
'Edge Width' 100%
'Swipe Distance' 0%
Now under 'Touch Feedback' turn off both 'Toast Message' and 'Animation'.
Then turn down 'Vibration Intensity' to '0'
Done.
You now have the screen functioning as normal.

Stuck in weird screen after factory reset

I factory reset my phone to wipe all personal data and make it as new again. But as soon as it turned on again, It displayed the Huawei logo as always, then the logo of my carrier, and then got stuck in this weird screen (see photo) where nothing i press or swipe will give any reaction.
Tried the hard reset by pressing up and down volume and power at the same time. A different screen appeared for a second mentioning EMUI and below Installing update 5% and then suddenly an error appeared (see second photo).
Please dear experts here, let me know what is going on... I love this phone and was very happy with it until I decided to the factory reset which on other phones always helped me get original performance back.
EDIT: well this forum wont let me post links as a new member, i guess that includes images. so let me try like this

hope that works
No idea why but it's showing the smart cover lock screen when its supposed to only show with a Huawei P9 smart cover that is closed on the screen.
oh so you're saying it's showing the screen as if there was a cover on it? that would make so much sense because i've had the display replaced just a day before... so maybe they didnt do it right and now the phone has some pressure on the LCD and thinks it's a cover?
Yes, exactly as you said, it is thinking the phone has a smart cover on it.
How the smart cover works is phones is that they have a magnet on the smart cover that where if you were to put a magnet at the exact spot on the screen it will trigger the hall effect sensor (The spot where the phone would be told that the smart cover is closed).
Yeah sounds like something went wrong with the screen replacement but it's rather rare for this to happen as it would require an magnet to trigger the smart cover sensor.
so weird... i hope they can fix that issue it's still not working but i will bring it back today. thanks for explaining how the smart cover works!
do you know by any chance on which part of the screen those triggers are? or that trigger magnet, if there's only one?

did you manage to resolve the issue? i currently have this problem
smart cover works with magnet. One of the quick fixes is to take a magnet and pass it over the screen. As i believe because im working for huawei they send us some devices and seems like the microphone or the speaker was moved. Those two have magnet and so it conflicts with the smart cover. Try as i said to pass a magnet from the screen and see if that would fix it. I am going to highlight That, This is happening due a hit, drop or misplaced speaker or microphone.

then you are going to have a factory repair because its either the mic or the speaker in a bad position and its activating the smart cover since both of them have a magnet in order to work.

Animation around the camera hole when switching between front and rear cameras

I've had my US unlocked Galaxy S10 for a few days now and one thing I've noticed is that the animation around the camera hole doesn't work when I am in the camera app and switch between the front and rear cameras. Has anyone else had this not work on theirs? Is there a setting that might affect this? I like this animation and want it to work on my phone. Any help you guys can provide is most appreciated!
I was told that led has been removed for now because they made a galaxy case that does some led stuff or something like. They might put it back in an update but no telling when or that's at least what I was told.

Do you have the virtual bezel turned on? Because if you do, that turns off the animation around the camera hole.

I'm not sure what the virtual bezel is so not sure if it is turned on. Where / how do I check that?

If you don't know what it is, then you probably don't have. The virtual bezel is the black bar that covers the hole in the display and pushes the status icons and notifications down. It can be found in display -> full screen apps -> hide front camera

If the phone is flat it won't work you'll have to angle the phone a little for it to work

@droberto2021 check that you dont have the upper phone's part covered, i mean near the front camera where sensors are. If you cover that the tap will not work
