Hey everyone, i have accidently dropped my Xperia P some time ago and the screen cracked ....
Today i am buying a Xperia P phone with a broken motherboard so i will use the display from that Xperia to replace it with mine.
Has anyone before opened/disassembled a Xperia P, is it hard and are there any pic or video tutorials?
I am not afraid to open it by myself but i want to inform myself first, i am also doing PC, PS3 and laptop disassemblys and repairs (not working but i know it) so i think that it won't cause me too much problems opening a modern smartphone?
I've looked a few videos and pictures of how to open a Xperia S so i think it has not that much differences ....

Thanks, i followed the video and dissasembled everything, but it doesn't show how to take out the screen, because i am stuck at the last part and don't know what to do next, no more screws or anything and i don't want to try it with force :/
Look at Xperia u disassembly on YouTube, the guy takes the screen out, it may be the same so maybe it can help you, cant provide a link but it's not hard to find

Hi, I am just posting this out of frustration and to share my experience with Sony. I bought a non-contract, sony Xperia Ultra Z outright from the Sony store in the middle of October and a month and a half later the touchscreen became completely unresponsive. I could see that I was still receiving text messages however, so I assume the other functionality of the phone was still working. I called into Sony and over several hours of troubleshooting and repairing via PC Companion it was determined I had to send in the phone for repair, which I was quite reluctant to do but had no other choice. I sent it in and had the case escalated to a supervisor level and was ensured that the case would be expedited with the repair facility... three weeks later and still nothing but the runaround with Sony representatives and supervisors. Furthermore, it took numerous calls to Sony to convince them to send me a loaner phone while my Xperia Z was being repaired. Once the loaner was received, it would not even connect to the internet and consequently, I'm sending it back to Sony. Though the supervisors are polite and empathetic, they have promised numerous times to call me back with an update on the status of my repair (RMA), but don't. I'm frustrated firstly, because the phone stopped working so quickly after I purchased it. Mostly though, I'm disappointed with the way Sony has handled the situation. Its been disorganized on Sony's part. Now, i'm still stuck without a phone and no status on the repair for my phone... I doubt I will buy a Sony product ever again. I even doubt I'll see my phone again, it's absolutely ridiculous, especially given that there was zero water or physical damage to the unit. It boggles my mind why it's taking so long as I have been told the repair center is 'looking at it' for two weeks now. I've read about Sony's evaluation process online somewhere, and in my judgement it should have been completed already and a decision rendered. Ridiculous.

Well i don't know if it exists in your country but in mine, we have separate ori set that's from manufacturer like sony, htc etc and ap set that's an original part but some of the main part is built from other factory so its cheaper than original....and also the warranty also not covered by manufacturer because they are not build by them.....maybe my explanation may a bit wrong but you can Google it....

Still no progress with Sony. They tell me that the repair centre is still "looking at it". Which is clearly b.s., it doesn't take two weeks to evaluate it and render a decision on their next step. Who even knows if anyone has truly even looked at it yet!
I am wondering, does anyone know what obligations Sony has in regards to the manufacturer's warranty? Things such as max. time for repair? Loaner phones and the type of loaner phone provided? Just looking for information to help me get them to expedite either a) replacing the phone or b) sending me a loaner that is a XZU, or c) fixing mine and sending it back asap

Sorry for hijacking thread
I am having dead or stuck pixel whatever it is called in the middle of the screen. Its greenish in color and clearly visible on Sony startup screen on the black background. So wanted to know whether Sony will entertain it and change the handset?

Thanks. I read somewhere that there need to be minimum 2 dead pixels to get the phone replaced so was asking as service center is about 10kms from my home.
On my previous xperia z there were 8 dead pixels so they replaced without asking any questions.

Hahaha.... hope dont get need to. Well its not visible in daily usage as I keep low brightness ,its just visible in start up screen so doesnt affect the usage.
So if I ignore this one pixel is there chance that this dead pixel will result in more dead pixels? As you cant be sure replacement device will have more dead pixels.

No, they don't multiply
If the replacement device has one, then refuse to accept the replacement. They'll have to get you another one.

Got new replacement same day but screen on this is yellowish compared to my previous zu which was pure white.I didnt went to pick the phone so didint check on the spot.
Now I am regretting replacing the phone. Would have lived wwith that one dead pixel instead of this yellowish screen. Any way to convince service centre people for yellowish screen?

Ask them to compare the display on your device to another display. Most probably they will have the old phone lying around - ask them to compare with that one if possible or another one. Insist on checking, they will try to say that the display is like that only and nothing's wrong with it!

Went to service center they didnt have any device to compare and said it looks fine to them. They were not ready to replace so what are the options left as this yellowish screen is really frustrating me after using pure white display earlier.

New Flagship & new issues!
I. Gap Between Glass & Frame >> Hardware
II. Over-heating (when Recording 4K) >> almost Software

To those who feel their panel looks yellowish, try changing the white balance settings.
I put blue a notch up and my screen looks white just the way I want it
As for touch sensitivity issues, the latest .55 firmware fixed it. I updated my firmware the moment I got my device.

Well, I don't have any touch issues.
A lot of peeps in our local Singapore forums mentioned that a new firmware fixes it, so the first thing I did when I got the phone is to connect it up to the PC Companion and updated the firmware.. and it works. No touch issues.

You were unlucky and lucky at the same time!
i got a lot of touch issue.
1. the upper side of the touch screen isn't working most of the time. therefore i cant access the status bar.
2. sometimes the entire touch is getting crazy. i press on one place on the screen, and other icons get presses too.

Man I have EXACTLY the same problem with that shi**y device as you, EXACTLY. I'm sending it for a warranty in a next few days...

Well Done Sony
Hey guys
So now with black fridays deals I can buy a xperia z2 for a good price. But I am really worried because i've read that the glass on the back cracks by itself..its really worrying and sometimes sony repair it for free and othertime you get to pay and its not an small amount. Is this problem fixed by Sony?
ive had a Z2 since it came out and ive had no "self cracking" glass
that was a batch spesific issue though and some people did lie to claim warrenty.
it can be fixed by sony, under warrenty i dont know

its not that common of a problem at all and it seems a large amount of the users who had this issue lied because when they posted pictues you could see impact areas from where the phone had been dropped
But not all phones were dropped. I hope I don't get this problem

Is it really only an early batch that is affected by this? Since Z3 and Z3C both have the same problem with self cracking screens, it seems weird to me that later batches of Z2 Sony got rid of the problem, but didn't quality check Z3 and Z3C.
It really amazes me that they haven't fixed this yet. And won't admit it is a manufacturing problem. It's outrageous to be honest.
Hello Everyone!
I bought that phone at Jun 10. I got a shoddy m4 aqua (It was always frozen under lockscreen, and it's submerged)... The company changed it to a new for me, it was at jun 15., but I've again a problem with this phone. When the phone begin to warm up the rubber seal at nano sim begins to open... That's why I can't use this phone under the water, and sometimes the flash(light) isn't work properly... Example: I've always to charging the phone at every night and that rubber seal always opening in that time... I don't know what's the problem, because I've never opened it before I got this phone, I noticed it a few days ago... I feel the m4 aqua is a series flawed, I guess... May I ask a new phone again? Because I can't wait for 3 weeks to I get it from the service... I think I'll ask a another SONY XPERIA, because the m4 aqua all are sh*t... Why is it open? Is this a shaddy m4 aqua again?

Hi, I understand what you mean,
although M4 aqua seems great in the first place, i also found out that it has lots of flaw during daily use.
