Hi,
I chipped my outer casing on my phone and now want to do a shell swap.
I've looked up guides on dissembling the phone such as: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1577554
but they involve taking out the camera, various boards and circuitry.
I'm wondering if it is possible to lift out the majority of the internals and screen and transfer it to a new case, digitizer and all.
Any help or input would be appreciated
Thanks.

what is lt26? if sola, you only need to remove 2 screws to pop off the bottom chin
Sony Xperia S is the LT26i. And I wanted to know if I could lift out all the internals. Not just the bottom

Re: Case corner and sound.
The top left corner has slightly lifted allowing when phoned squezzed from side edges towards each other the sound goes, if I hold the corner that's slightly dislodged the issue doesn't persist have searched but not found a strip video "no pun on words" any ideas as I'm thinking remove front panel bossing clamping.
Any ideas as no warranty.

Then remove putty edges.

Hello guys.
Got mine SGS3 as a present 2 weeks ago. At first I didn't notice this, but now it makes me wonder... Btw this is mine first touch screen and Android phone.
1. Friction between finger and screen oscilates. In one moment, it is super smooth, but in other there is some additional friction with different intensity. The screen is still usable, of course, but this issue is quite irritating. What is even worse, I just can't see any pattern in these screen changes. Even when I clean the screen with microfiber, wash and dry my hands, problem is still present sometimes.
2. Back cover. I noticed on 2 spots that plastics clicks everytime I touch it. Everything seems perfectly fit, except on those 2 tiny spots, although it is not noticable when you just look at it, just when you press it - it clicks. One spot is right besides camera flash and other above USB/charge cable slot. It doesn't bother me that much, I'm more interested if there are other people with similar issue.
I don't have receipt and the phone is bought in another country. Therefore, it is quite a problem for me to return it and ask for replacement. On the other hand, since it is quite expensive toy, it would be ridicilous not to claim it, unless this is "normal" (?!). I want to hear what you think and about your experience, just in case I'm doing something wrong and/or missing something obvious.
Thank you.

Bump.
1. It seems that I'm an idiot and those increased friction between my fingers and screen is caused by my sweaty hands/fingers. It is pretty humid and hot these days, so it's understandable. How can I solve this? What do you think - can screen protector help in my case?
2. Remains. Does your sgs3 plastics clicks time from time or it is perfectly fitted?
Thank you.

1) Put anti-fingerprint screen protector. You will have a bit blurry screen but should solved your issue.
2) Put a case on it and you are good to go
Else, get an exchange....
Enjoy

Thank you very much, Arsaw!
Do you or other sgs3 users have some recommendations for screen protector and case? Some specific model?

Hello everyone
I didn't have screen guard installed but only the protective covering. Now it is scratched a lot and I wanna change it. Can I simply remove it and then install a new screen guard? And do non-stickey screen guards come for our phone? Even with least amount of sweat, screen gets sticky and its impossible to move finger over it. Any suggestions?
By non sticky I meant kinda ones we have on s3 and iphones
Yeah, You can simply remove it. Xperia x10 has something like plastic screen, so it will always be sticky and will stop responding with water on it

Dont we have some non sticky screen guard? I asked some people but they said no...
I never changed that but I think there's no non sticky protection for our screens. Even on my sgs2 it's still sticky

It becomes very annoying if you are playing game without ac in summers when screen starts sticking. I am a hardcore gamer and whenever ibsit for gaming, 2 hours easily pass
Buy iGloves
Nah, I'm just joking, You can't do anything. Maybe there's some special screen protection without this effect but I don't know. If Google doesn't help You then nothing can

(I know that image is NOT of the charger or even of a z ultra..but I am just trying to give reference to the black plug I am talking about)
Thanks a lot!
Hi you got the water seals around the connector, so the phone still water proof. If the cover is broken replace it by a new one

Hmm okay..thanks.
Where can I go to buy the connected then? Also, how would I install the connector? It is installed inside the phone...
If the connector is broken you need to open the phone for replacing

Well, the connector isn't physically broken...just the seal inside the connector. What must I do then?
Also, where would I buy phone pieces for the z ultra?

Hi could somebody tell me if I screwed up my screen repair? This was stuck on the phone and then I tried to get all the glass off of it but I don't know what the cable does. I bought the screen lens off of eBay but does this now mean that I've screwed my lcd digitiser now?!

Those are the lights for the bottom soft keys. I suggest you find a YouTube video on how to proceed before you go any further.
