Hi guys,
So after a year of a broken screen, I fixed my Z2, after like 5 months of using it, she decide to broke again... It fall on the floor from like a meter height.
I do have a glass protection screen which is a bit cracked (thank god the screen itself is fine..) after it fall and also phone does have a rubber cover on it.
So it fall, at first I thought that my phone died cause it wasn't reacting to power button at all. So I thought why not try turning off the Z2 to see if its still alive by pressing the red button where the sim card is.
And here we are now, can't turn on my Z2 at all. Even if the power button was broken but I knew that phone is still alive I would unlock it by pressing the camera button (ups.. too late..).
So any idea if its the button itself broken like a plastic thing under the button that touches the connector on the flex or is it the entire flex that is broken ? I've no idea if the rest of the buttons are working as turn off my Z2 and can't test it.
Any idea what might be broken and is there an option to turn on the Z2 without the power button ? It does react to charging for sure as the LED lights up red for a sec and then its orange as the battery is 75% charged and screen is working too cause it does show the Xperia logo with an Android one and it does show battery charging level etc.
I don't know how to fix it but if you have recovery, you can boot to system normally.

Hi everyone.
I dropped my phone today, and the screen broke.
The phone still seems to work properly, but the classic signs of a broken LCD are present: purple screen with many many lines and nothing legible.
I have ordered a replacement screen already, but I cannot get the phone to shut down and stay turned off.
Since the screen is broken internally, it does not respond to my touch.
I can hold down the power button for 15 seconds but that does a reset, and the phone automatically turns back on.
Is there anyway to keep the phone off other than by draining the battery completely?
I need to keep it powered down so that I can disassemble it safely.
Any ideas?
Thanks!

I don't know of any way, but as long as you are careful while disassembling you should be fine. You should be able to pry the screen out enough that you can disconnect the battery before disconnecting the screen. I doubt disconnecting the screen with the phone on would damage anything anyway. I believe people do this iPhone screens all the time to test them.
Hey everyone,
So recently I had to swap out the charging ribbon because my pins got bent and wouldn't charge. Found a tf201 with the screen broken on eBay and swapped out my old charging ribbon with the new one. The Orange LED lights on and it vibrates when I hit the power button or attempt a Reset(holding vol down and power), but the display wont power on. I put everything back together perfectly and I'm sure nothing was damaged. Does anyone have any suggestions?
Also its been without power for about three months so I'm sure the battery is completely drained, I've heard you have to leave it charging for 8 hours before turning it on but I feel like the screen should power up with the dead battery screen then power off, but nothing is happening.
Thanks guys.
Guys, I am in deep worry for putting my Xperia Neo L into a bucket full of water. But I instantly took it removed the battery and made it dry for a day. Also I used hair dryer for it.
But still I cannot get it back alive. But when I press and hold the power button, the led light blinks white & turns to red and is stuck at that. nothing seems to be going on in the lcd screen. But when i press the power button again a small vibration happens and the phone gets turned off.
Please help guys. Is there any way I can do to bring it back, Will the Sony service center aid me in repairing a drowned phone ?

bro its ic is dead you need to swap motherboard
So, yesterday, I accidently dropped my phone... again
I noticed minutes after that the power button of my DX wasn't working. I tried to remove the case, and click on the real power button... Was broken too.
I said "ok I'll let the phone charging so the screen will stay on"
Today I tried again to remove the case, to see if I can still try to find a way to click on the power button.
And the battery dropped... again
Now, I'm stuck with this unfonctional Desire X. The phone is totally SHUTDOWN, and I can't boot it without the power button. Is there a solution to this issue since my problem doesn't seems to be rare?

I actually tore the felx cable that goes to my power button.
You can buy new flex cable that holds SD and SIM cards and has the power button. Its about 8 dollars on ebay, shipping included.

In the meantime this is what you can try:
- remove battery and put it on charger. Why on charger insert battery and maybe it turns on. If it does, install and set up Gravity button tool. You can wake your phone with proximity sensor.
- try a nail file to gently scrub the plastic coating off the thin cable that runs to the power button. BE PATIENT! Dont use too much pressure or you will wrip it. You should see 2 copper lines running in parallel. If you see them, use something metallic to short circuit it. (I use the blade of a pocket knife or scissors). Hold it there long for power on, shortly for wake and lock screen. You can easily access the cable by just lifting the power button off the case with a thin blade. Be gentle.
Other thing: anyone has an idea if the flexcable from the dual-sim version would be compatible with the single sim motherboard? I mean, is the only difference between the single sim and dual-sim version that the flex cable is different?
Has anyone seen a dual-sim flex cable for sale online?
[AT&T] V10 Screens won't power on but phone vibrates once when power button pushed
BONE STOCK ROM. One day my V10 screens were unresponsive. The mini screen was updating time correctly but wasn't responsive to touch, and the power button would not wake the main screen.
I removed the battery for 30 seconds then replaced, pressed power button. I had one short vibration then nothing. Neither screen comes alive. Removal of battery and replacement followed by pressing power button always gets a single vibration like it's powering up, but screen never comes alive.
Has this happened to anyone else? I am also wondering if in repair, someone could somehow access my data... I have sensitive information but the system is security locked with screen pattern.

Sounds like your LCD and digitizer has went out need to get it replaced . No they can not access your phone all they will do is replace the LCD digitizer and power it on to see if it comes on once it does there job is done . Replacing or repairing repairing screen will not erase anything because all your info is saved on the motherboard
