My phone committed suicide in the toilet (never put it near it, someone called me and it moved with the vibration and fell) . I was able to dry it, but there is a pink dot indicating this water damage, so I guess my guarantee is broken Everything seems to work well, except that people can't hear me when calling.
There are 2 mics on this phone, so I guess it is the main one under the buttons that got damaged. I can still use voice recognition apps like Google translator, but I guess that uses the second mic.
I have seen a piece for this phone in eBay that is the 3 buttons part, and I think this part includes the mic, so maybe I'm lucky and I can repair it, all I need is the service manual or some guide with pics, and advice to be sure about it.

Thanks a lot! But those docs didn't solve my doubt, some time ago I think I saw some other pdf with much more details and pics about the parts, but I can't find it.
I'm still wondering how to fix the mic. I'll get a picture of the 3 buttons part where I suppose the mic is. Maybe you can advice me
I found this part in ebay, do you think this will include the mic?
I searched mt15 keypad

I just searched "mt15 keypad" or "xperia neo keypad" and selected origin from all countries. I found this piece cheaper in my town, so I hope I can get it there. I just need some advice to know if I should replace that piece, those manuals that taaviu linked don't explain very clearly

Look and find red or pink colored papers in your phone.
One is right in back side battery.
If they are white, then all ok.
If red or pink..then your phone have some water damage.

Did the repair work?
Hello devrruti,
I've a similar problem on my neo and I was wondering if you managed to fix the mic problem and/or got the appropriate service manuals?
Problem description: Phone went in washing machine and now people can't hear me on a call. However, when I put the phone on 'speaker' mode then I can be heard! (Perhaps that's related to the presence of the two mics).
Thanks!
Same Problem with my phone too...

I finally bought it on a local store, I was about to fix it, it just requires patience and take a look at the pdf our videos about disassembling it. It is a tricky part to fix.
But my phone got stolen, so for the greedy person that didn't want to return it to me, it won't be very useful
I never got to try this solution. I still have this part, maybe if sending it is cheap I can sell it to you. If you are a bit skilled you could fix it yourself.
Hi guys and gals,
I posted that on q&a but went unnoticed. Just want to check if there is hope...
My primary microphone is gone (water damage). It sits on the "UI board with vibration" under the home button.
Could only find it in two online shops, but not in stock for a month.
Now the developement part: is there a way to make the secondary microphone default -as ti is I see it is only used with camera. -This is for the time I wait for the new part.
Anybody has access to a new part quicker than in a month? Will settle for a used one.

Only thing I found was a micswitch, and all it does is changes the a1026 value in build.prop -or ment to change it, doesnt quite work here. Gave me an idea though, so I changed it myself, but makes no difference.
Since the primary stopped working I hear myself in the speaker, comming from the secondary, but for some reason that sound from the secondary mic is not feed to the remote phone...
Sent from my ST18i using XDA
Ok, we'll try it from another angle.
Cant get the part anywhere. Its still on warranty, I kight send it off, but not sure I want to waste time.
Is there any warranty seals that I didnt see when stripping the bottom plastics? As in, will it show at the service that I opened the phone? Also, wil they see "water damage" as they usually see -I didnt see any traces.

Have you try to clean it with this: http://www.amazon.com/CRC-05103-Quick-Electronic-Cleaner/dp/B000BXOGNI
or a similar product?
Thanks, I think its the lowest price cleaner I seen. Localy at my usual electronics shop they go for about 20.
I havent really noticed any moisture residue. Got the phone stripped right after and "hair dryered".
I'm just wondering, have they got any fancy x-ray os such that would tell them anyway?

Every smartphone have a water indicator: i don't know where is in the ray,but is a small piece of special paper that change color when get water.
sorry fo r my english...
Inviato dal mio ST18i
There is a water sticker on the battery and all over the insides of the phone. The bottom panel including. If even one of them is red, the warranty is not valid. My ray got dipped in water too, fortunately i managed to open it up and clean in fast enough, so no damage(except the lost warranty).
K, so I guess thre million dollar question now is where tyat sticker is oj ray. My phone only got the dipped to the top of home button (standing).
I'll chance it, since I cant find the replacement parts anywhere
Sent from my ST18i using XDA
Well, well well... just got the phone back from the shop. Warranty was a keeper and the Ray is fixed and good as new... or... as new. Lost root, toggles, and all the work done previously. On a bright - I can have fun doing it all over again and best of all - I don't have to rush unwinding the headset from the pocket just to answer the phone anymore.
Happy days.
Thank you Sony
My xperia p home button is getting pressed backwards as well. Like if I rest my finger at the back of the home button then it gives feedback wtf? The home button works fine from the front as well. :S
There is no such problem with the back and menu key. What has gone wrong is it a hardware problem? Has anyone else experienced?
The xperia p is just over a month old and this problem only happened recently.

Actually seems like it can happen with any button. Just rub your finger at the back of the transparent strip and eventually a touch will be registered. I have a feeling this is not a hardware flaw but merely a ridiculous design flaw from Sony.
Can I please have more people who can try this? Maybe this was the way it is from the beginning and I just didn't notice it before as this phone hasn't been used much.

I've had a similar problem, exept it wasn't similar at all. I had haptic feedback enabled on the softkeys, but when I pressed a key, it vibrated twice. Doesn't happen in cyanogenmod, though. Sorry if I'm offtopic or something like that, I just feel like typing something (and raising my postcount so that I could post in the development forums).

I had this problem, but reboot helped(press and hold both the volume up key and the power key for few seconds).
I have this problem from the beginning. In my phone back button is creqzy. Even if I try not to touch anything, it goes back. When I browse web sometimes it immediately presses 5 times, so im 5 pages back. Its getting worse when phone is warm. Never going to buy sony anymore.

I had to make an account just to reply to this when I was finding solutions on google. A bit late, but yes, i'm having the same problem too. I've only had it for a month as well and i'm starting to get really frustrated. The buttons on the transparent bar automatically 'responses' to itself. Don't know what's the problem. I can't lay my hand or hold it on the back of it either. It gets all 'spazzed' up.

Ya it does seem like a general problem with the xperia P, maybe some devices are more sensitive and some arent. I have just decided to live with it.

If there is no known solution, and you've already decided to live with it, why not buy a case for your xperia p? one that covers the back of the soft buttons. Without being able to touch it from the back, you won't have the problem again, and even forget about it.

I have just been careful these days and it doesnt always trigger the buttons from the back, its just very random. If the problem becomes impossible to live with then yes a cover is the solution.

I have two Xperia P (mine and my wife's). My wife has no problems with the phone. I have two months of use there was a problem with the key "Menu" (which is triggered randomly.) But I noticed that if you turn your phone off for a few days, the problem disappears temporarily. Maybe it's a hardware problem with overheating phone? (Sorry for my English, I used google translate )
---------- Post added at 12:49 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:56 AM ----------
Guys, I blocked "Menu" key and remap the "Focus" (short press on the "Camera") to the menu. So the problem is solved for me.
how did you remap it?
Because I have the same problemm since today.
Everything I tried results into nothing.
I just can't use the home button anymore.
That's really driving me crazy :silly:

As for touch sensitivity issues, the latest .55 firmware fixed it. I updated my firmware the moment I got my device.

Yeah it sucks. I'm taking it to a guy I know at sprint today. Does anyone know if they can swap out phone models rather than giving an exact replacement? This is the 3rd G2 I've had in the past few months and I'm kind of getting fed up with it. ( The other issues I had weren't related to physical damage)

Its awesome that lg has created that kind of feature so they are thinking also about its customers. I still wonder where the sensor would be located
I saw this feature when I got my first G2. At that point there were no cases because it was so new. Of course I dropped it on the way to work and cracked the screen. Unfortunately I couldn't ever get the hardware to work because it killed all areas.
