hi, so I was fixing the screen of an xperia neo and all is good apart from when I put it back together I can't seem to get the silver side strips to click in. I have spent ages trying but they don't want to go into place.
I just now fitted it all back together but the side strips are still sticking out.
can anyone who has experience opening the phone share any advice on how to fit these back?
thanking you! :laugh:
i opened my neo v once. i too cant get the side strip on right place. but i put on a cover so it works fine.
I glued mine
I saw by me is one broken where he get stuck with the silver strip inside

Hi people!
My Xperia Neo creaks when I press the left side (the side that has no buttons).
-Is it normal?
thank you
Mine too, the left chrome panel can be pushes about .2 mm's to the inside.
Mine too,
I thought I was the only one, 'cuz my aunt has the same phone and it didn't _creak_. Why?!
It does not matter but I just wanted to know if I have a conception problem only on my Neo or not, apparently no.
Same here :/
Cheap ass plastic :/
Same here...but creaks from three sides- left, right and back(very little sound). And this same problem Neo v is facing also. I think its because of the green heart eco friendly thing.

You can easily remove the chrome side panels, so maybe put some glue on it/a little bit of oil and no more creaks.
got same here with my Neo V...
got the same here but placed a small piece of paper between the chrome panel and the phone body ... and no more creaks
Yes i have this problem too and i solve this problem like fire-warrior and now everythink is ok =))

Oh gosh... I just did the same as you, thank you! Bye _creaks_! <3 Well, the volume buttons creaks as well, but, it's different..
I did exactly the same about a week after I got my Neo Every little place that creaked is stuffed with small pieces of paper, result: totally creakfree Neo

OMG dude!!! Thank you!!!
This phone is amazing for customisation!
200$ - Unlocked(able) bootloader - Ice cream Sandwich in 2012!
And with this video... in 2 minutes I have the 2 chrome sides in my hands and the touch screen glass!!! SO EASY
The Neo will be the new HTC Desire

humm.. I dont remember having creak sounds on my neo (altough i use a silicon cover so maybe it isolates the problem ), shouldn´t you guys use something like rubber or electrical tape instead of paper ?

or just glue it with some paper glue (so you can still disassemble it when necessary).
try to remove the back cover, you will find 3 screws at the right side facing your battery...
unscrew it the press the side which causing creaky sound then tight the screw not to much....
i also have that creaky, but when i did this any thing is fine... but no issues about this thing.....
Smart asses
I shall do that xD
Merci
It's such a relief - in a weird way- to know my Neo V isn't the only one making sounds ^_^
But inspite of (un)screwing around with it ,i also got a rubber case for, which also makes a little bit easier pressing the power button and makes it look fancy too!
Odd. I haven't noticed mine creak, especially now that it has it's protective hard plastic cover.
Hi All,
Just got back from Phones4U with my new white Xperia S.
However I have noticed a slight gap between the cover and the top at the back (see photo).
Is this the norm or do I have a dodgy one?
Thanks for any replies.
Gary
Looks normal to me.
Looks the exact same on my Xperia S

Mine is like that and that's normal.
Thanks guys. Put my mind at ease.
Same here too.

I think if they would made it a super tight fit, it would be very difficult to even get the cover off.
True that....HaHa

I bought a new housing for my neo V as I have several scratches on the body of the device.
A video helped me dissasemble the device, but it did not show how to detouch the touchscreen glass and the front camera/sensors/speaker from the face body.
I found another video that shows by heating it can be easily detouched, seems like it is glued.
Is there anyone who tried that and could help?
Same problem

Hi,
I have the same problem. Did you solve this, if so how did you do it?
Looks like no one here has tried this. I ordered a new housing for my old Neo (S3 owner now) in order to sell it cuz the old plastic is full if scratches. When it ships i'll attempt to change it and give you an reply how that went.

Why don't you go to service center and request them to change it for you .. Or else go to any local mobile service stores..

I just changed mine and got stuck at the same step.
The whole thing is glued to the front case. You can carefully cut the glue and remove the camera/sensors.
I had some problems with my neo and 2 corners of my cover are damaged, the back cover is kinda blurry, the buttons are really ugly (with almost scratches or something )
so.. i want to change it, or paint, or something (just 1 of the corners are half-broken)
thx if someone have any information on where to buy it D
@edit
Got it at eBay, only place i found that (cheap)...

Hello. I have recently found my old sony xperia Z3 phone from 2014 but its totally wrecked back glass is broken and fell off easily and screen totally wrecked to the point the enternal screen has broken lines and touch screen isnt working at all. I want to try and revive this phone for me to use for hacking purposes like android tampering and just in general having fun. I want a little spice to this phone and there comes my question. I have searched and searched but I never found anyone that sells back glass without any color and is transparent. Does anyone know where I can buy transperant back glass for the sony xperia Z3? and if not I can try doing it by myself scraping off the color and trying not to hit the NFC module but for that please link me to a buyer that sells back glass with no glue strips on the back glass. I need just the back glass with everything but without the glue. thanks in advance
Just do it by yourself - that's what I did.
If you want to make it more neat you may buy the front screen and scratch it. So you got upper & lower blackout covered.
