Xperia Sola "dead" touchscreen area - Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go

Some days ago I noticed that upper left corner of the phone was not responding to touches. I tested with Touchscreen test and it confirmed that that area was "dead" The reason why "dead", because some time after, this area started to work again. Is this possible? How did this happen? I dropped phone once pretty hard, but nothing was damaged and I made tests right away, everything worked correctly.
Here is the screenshot

So this is hardware issue right? Will this area expand further or it will remain at that area? I bought the phone from another person and its warranty is has passed long time ago. Also there aren't any Sony service centres in my country and if I bring it to private repair centre, they will sure charge me very high.

My guess is that it won't spread and yes, it would be expensive.

[Q] dust accumulation under screen?

I have noticed a large amount of dust accumulating under the top right hand corner of the screen.
Has anyone else noticed anything similar or know how to get rid of and/or prevent any more dust entering?
Thanks

Crack it open and clean it out.
Same problem here, but mine is under the screen, near camera button. I think the only way to solve it is send the phone back to the provider and ask them to clean it up.

Not really the only way, I'd try it myself or take it to a shop before sending it back to anywhere.
I think according to ur pic's it's just under the screen protector

speaker water damage

i dont know how but i messed up my phone speakers. i took the phone to the sprint store and they told me they have water damage. they sound very tinny and low. i guess they must have gotten wet inside. is there any way to replace the speakers? im out of warranty and my phone is useless without speakers. any ideas, suggestions? many thanks and merry xmas everyone!!

The part you need is the middle plate with the loud speaker it shouldn't be that hard to repair. The problem is finding that sucker and this site only sells to wholesalers.

You should go around in the cm7 thread (development section) and check the last few pages for thesian. He works for sprint and maybe he could sell you one or at least tell you where to get it. Send him a private message I'm sure he'd be cool enough to help you.

Did you used the phone in those 3 days?
Sent from my HTC One S using Tapatalk 2
yeah did you even use the phone in 3 days? because cell standby is on the top of the list.
most important thing is how many hours on screen.
Sigh..

He obviously didn't use the phone at all. Cell standby is 3rd from the list. No screen time in the list

Terrible Experience with Huawei Authorised Service Center

The free casing which came together with Mate 7 gold crack itself after 1 week. When to Huawei Authorised Service Center, to my surprise they said they are only authorized to claim for phone but not accessories. Online chat with Huawei Service Person, initially said will help me to check for it but later said their accessories are not under warranty. Those who plan to buy Huawei phone just be careful.

Wow, that blows. What cell service you're using the gold on, getting LTE?

Sorry, I didn't subscribe any LTE service in my country. I just feel pissed off with the Huawei's service center and also doubt their promise of 1 to 1 and no question asked exchange policy of Mate 7.

Xperia Z2 - Battery Cover Cracked

I was having a great day yesterday, until my phone fell off the kitchen counter and landed on it's back.
Thank god the screen is perfectly okay, however the back is smashed completely.
I obviously want to get it repaired, but DIY, since there is no Sony Service Center in Pakistan.
I know how to do it myself (had repaired the class on my Xperia Z).
So I know, however I'm confused.
Does the back cover (of the Z2) have an NFC chip on the battery cover, or is it in the battery?
I was thinking of ordering THIS off Ebay, any opinions? Is this okay, or is there supposed to be a different one with an NFC thing on the back?
Any replies will be greatly appreciated.
i took my back of today to change the battery and yes it looks like there is a NFC chip on the back
