- Pics 1
It's a similar crack issue I had with my old Xperia Arc.
u can ask if the service will take care of it, will it go as under warranty?
Did u drop it?
no
The u shoulda ask at da shop if they can do something about it.

Do you know if is it hard to change it cause I heard that the display is attached to a part of the housing..

I've this issue too . But I think it's just a reef of anti-dust coating paint, not a cracking plastic housing. Trust me, U can see another reefs between back camera and led light too.
Hello to all,
First of all i wanna thank you for any help in advance.
I have a mentioned phone for a litle while but the problem appeared when Xperia fell on the ground. Now my mobile looks like it went tough a war.
I decided i will change the housing, but i have few question.
When you buy a new housing is there the front screen protector, or this is allready the screen? i needto know if sony xperia housing has someting over the screen or is it the display allready?
And if this is changable i would like someone to describe the procedure.
You can se pictures below. All the dots on the display are deep dents.
Thank you for all of your help

Hello.
Can someone upload a video showing how to change the housing cover of the Xperia S, or tell me how to do it?
I dropped my phone and now its got a chip on one of its corners which I want to remove immediately.
I have damaged my xperia s too
i know where to buy a housing kit from but, im too scared to just dive in and dismantle my device... I have had a look at the disassembly guide but it doesnt really talk about talking the screen off or anything.
Really interested in this please get back to us :fingers-crossed::good:

Thanks, that would be helpful.
It says in the manual, when we remove the bottom cap, "scrap, not to be reused". Is it talking about the bottom cap? Will I have to buy a new cap once I remove it ?
U can reuse it but be careful not to broke it

Herro.
Well, because its so big and lumpy, i've dropped it a few times. And that causes the sides to snap off. And im talking about the "chrome" side.
Anyone knows an easy fix?
What do you want to know here ?
What things you want to fix ? Tell here please clearly..
I just did a quick search on ebay and you can replace the bezel for under $13.00 USD
Here is just one auction:

Here is a video on how to dismantle the phone to replace parts:

Fine. I will do it..
Hi All,
Got mine today after a long battle with the M8 and its many problems. . .
I have noticed mine has a gap in the top right like many others have but has anyone been in for a waterproof test yet?
In all honestly i'm just curious to know rather then it being a problem for me as I dont have the desire to be dipping into water or swim with it.
It doesnt bother me although I know its not nice having it there but again it doesnt look as bad as the way the original HTC One had gaps open round the metal.
So yep anyone concerned or even taken it to a Sony centre?
Cheers
Mine doesn't have any gap. Well not that I can see. I will not risking trying to dip in in water. Even though it is supposed to be waterproof I am not sure they will cover it.

yeah i dont have the desire as I say to be dipping into water . .its seems more ppl have the gap then others . ..
coming from the M8 with multiple scuffs and marks on the metal out the box its really pleasing that its just a gap i have as it doesnt look bad but still the waterproof protection and dust may still be affected by this.
plus I plan to put a case on mine in the end so the gap will be covered up anyway . .I know I shudnt ave to cover it but Im never gonna be carrying a glass phone naked!
Where did you order yours? Maybe you can get it exchanged and hope to get one of the newer batches?
It was phone's 4 u in UK so not the best place to get phone's in my experience so far.. I have been advised to go into store so staff can have a look...

Has it ever been proven that the 'gap' is actually a problem? People seem to get them replaced without ever testing, could be all for nothing?

I believe due to the scarcity of Sony stores in certain areas that people just decide to not bother testing and just sent it back.
Don't know if this is related but anyone who has the gap issue, is the camera lens slightly off centre too? Mine is (although it doesn't affect the camera quality).
I'm not sure what I should do because I've only recently realised I have the very minute gap at the top right but I got my phone on the 22nd of April through mobiles.co.uk so I wonder if I can simply go to a carphone warehouse shop to discuss it or if I have to do it through mobile.co.uk.

But i don't think this small gap become cause of water damage!
i mean this gap is in surface of phone and it s not like hole that connect outside to inside of phone!
so it s just ugly...
:good:
I have the gap issue, there is a slight gap on the front top right & a more noticeable one on the front bottom left, I didn't spot it at first but a mate that was admiring the phone did as he spotted a small bit of tobacco trapped between the gap & the bezel.

Alright, I thought **** it, put my phone under water with the small gap, everything was fine no problems.
As i mentioned i did ask if ppl had taken to sony fot testing .. It bothers me as some ppl say they dont have gaps and its more noticeable because of the left side bring flush with the galss

Yeah I know what you mean, I want to go to a Sony Centre but nearest one to me is Leeds and I don't like going into Leeds at the best of times but I will go not next week but the week after and have a chat with them.
Im going back back into shop tomorrow to check their other Z2 stock and see how they r.. If theres no gaps then its getting exchange... Thought i cud live with it but it makes the screen at top look angled as left top side is fine and right side drops down

What about your camera lens? Is it off centre too?
Seems fine the camera just gap.. If other side had a gap i honestly think id be ok bout it as they wud match.. But at minute it looks silly

I know some ppl have said this doesnt effect the waterproofing but my problem with this is the lool of the handset as it looks badly made
