Hello. I have recently found my old sony xperia Z3 phone from 2014 but its totally wrecked back glass is broken and fell off easily and screen totally wrecked to the point the enternal screen has broken lines and touch screen isnt working at all. I want to try and revive this phone for me to use for hacking purposes like android tampering and just in general having fun. I want a little spice to this phone and there comes my question. I have searched and searched but I never found anyone that sells back glass without any color and is transparent. Does anyone know where I can buy transperant back glass for the sony xperia Z3? and if not I can try doing it by myself scraping off the color and trying not to hit the NFC module but for that please link me to a buyer that sells back glass with no glue strips on the back glass. I need just the back glass with everything but without the glue. thanks in advance
Just do it by yourself - that's what I did.
If you want to make it more neat you may buy the front screen and scratch it. So you got upper & lower blackout covered.

Hi. I have a problem with a minor crack on the front glass near the "go back" button. (I've marked it with red line on this picture: http://i51.tinypic.com/10rpybl.jpg )
So my question is what is the cheapest way to fix it? I have been thinking about SGP Glass but I don't like how it looks, however if there is no option to replace just a front glass, I will consider it.
i have the same question,
Is it passable to separate outer glass and LCD ?
on ebay you can find only glass, no connectors, that means it should be passable to separate them, does anyone tried to do so?
I would like to know that also. Anybody has experience with that?
it is possible, i have the same problem...but ideally you should use a special tool to seperate the digitiser (the actual touchscreen bit) from the glass.
and you'll risk breaking your working touchscreen if it goes wrong..
if the screen functions and the crack isn't that big...and if you can't afford to go the whole way and replace the lot....i wouldn't bother (i'm not and i have a huge spider like crack all over my phone.)
I dont think so. Mostly the Touscreen is bound to the Display.
Watch this Video around 2:45. You will see that he nearly destroyes the glass.
watch?v=k6Y6an6D2P | sry can post any Urls yet
But i cant also explain to myself why there are only "glass" sold on ebay

hi everyone
to answer all your questions YES its possible but in-order to do so you'll have install a copy of the original glass which comes in full meaning the other half the your phone
this has happened to me, my phone slipped from my hand and fall to the floor the glass was shattered so i went to my friend a mobile phone reaper man and got the glass changed only and its was not that bad although there was no samsung logo i chose to install a glass copy because the price of the original is almost half the price of a new I9100
i hope this helps

That is exactly what I need to do.... Replace the glass only! I already have the glass but need to figure out how to replace it without damaging the digitizer.
Maybe your friend can help?
The whole glass/digitizer is very expensive!
Please help!

This could affect the touch sensitivity badly. If the repair is too pricy for you, use a screen protector so you won't get cuts and save money for repair.
Sent from my digital submersible hovercraft.
So it happened - my neoV fell on the ground. The screen smashed totally, however
the picture still seems to be clear behind broken glass, no bleeding or discoloration.
It's still responsive to gestures, however there is danger of cutting myself while touching the surface.
Now I need to know what needs replacing. Is it only the touchscreen - I've found some on ebay:
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/SONY-ERIC...arts_Tools&hash=item4604353c33#ht_2532wt_1165
however I'm not sure if this is only a thin foil that goes over the glass or this is the whole glass that I need to replace with.
The cover is slighty scratched at one corner, this is not of such importance to me, I just need a working screen.
if screen is entirely responsive, then touchscreen/digitizer is ok, no need to replace it.
you might be just lucky and end up with ONLY broken front mask.
Digitizer is behind the glass? I thought this is a one-piece component. How is this mask called?
EDIT: you were probably referring to front cover? I found those also on ebay. I'm not sure how NEO V screen is held together - digitizer can be separated from front case?
Front cover, front mask, front housing..different names, but yes we think on same.
Digitizer shoud be stuck with screen and front case can be removed without separating from digitizer or screen.
Google up for disassembly videos tutorials or pdf guides, you can even find it in accessories section.

It's danger for screen sensor if you direct touch,,,
suggest go to Sony center nearly
sorry my bad english
It's the digitizer. It's composed from glass + sensors and this part as whole can be detached from front case.
But I need a new front case too, I found one of the side panels to have broken support latches around screws. It's time to get a red one
Does anyone know if MT15i Mt15a parts are compatible with MT11i Mt11a?
Xpeia neo v front screen glass cracked
Hey buddy,
I have broken the screen glass of my xperia neo v and fortunately it is working fine still.........
All the gestures are working perfectly and there are no changes in color...........just like u've mentioned.........
Just wanted to know if you've got your screen replaced, if yes from where? how much did it cost you?
Could you please give me some tips for the same.
Thanks & Regards.
I did
You need a new digitizer and case if some important parts of it are broken. Mounting the digitizer is a bit difficult, since it's hard to close it without trapping dust between it and LCD. Look into the technical manual
Check eBay for prices.

Hi
Is there any way to retrieve my contacts as the phone screen is totally not working
Does anyone know how to replace the digitizer only?
I checked youtube how to replace the lcd + digitizer front panel set but I cant find anything on just removing the digitizer from the lcd.
I checked aliexpress and found
"Touch Screen Glass lens Digitizer Panel Replacement For Sony Togari Xperia Z Ultra C6802 XL39h Original free shipping"
for $90.
Do I need the
"5X Digitizer Touch Panel Adhesive Sticker Rubberized For Sony Ericsson Xperia Z Ultra XL39H C6802,Togari,Xperia L4,Xperia ZU"
on aliexpress to make the digitizer stick to the lcd?
Or should I just fork out $150 for the lcd and digitizer set for an easier way?
But I would prefer just doing the digitizer way cause its more cheaper.
Any input would be great guys. Thank you.
AFAIK is almost impossible to remove it as they were bonded with good adhesive....
Some professional equipment are available to remove them but it cost quite a bit to do so...
Even if you managed to pull it off. You cannot water proof it anymore.

Is it the same as the "Z" ?
I saw this youtube video " watch?v=1TFFHFHUJjc " and I feel like I could do it. Search "Sony Xperia Z Separate Touch Screen (Digitizer Glass) Scotle PR-1000 "
Clamps, Heat gun, UV LOCA glue, and Molybdenum wire. I think I could pull it off.

U can try but is not that easy like what they said...
It take alot of patient which i dont hv...
Good luck and pls do update us...
I fixed it already. BUT! I dont know if the digitizer is defective or I messed up the connections when I took the old one off and the new one on or maybe it some how bent or the gule is somehow uneven and it is making the touches off point.
i.e.
I turn on show visable pointer upon touch in developer options.
When I touch the top right it clicks on the bottom left. vice versa.
When I drag down it drags right. vice versa.
Or maybe I need to calibrate the touch screen? I actually trying to search it now how to do it.
Any suggestions guy on any of this?
Please help.
How did you do it? only heat gun?
My Z cracked long time ago..and now my xperia L too So I guess I could try to repair my xperia Z, but I don't want to pay for a whole LCD.
Only heat gun and wire worked?
Besides can you remove the digitizer and LCD and then remove the digitizer? Or it has to be when still glued/connected to the phone?
Hey guys my z ultra just slip from my hand
It fall onn small size stone nd now I just got a small round deep scratch there
Screen is working fine no issues but I think the protector need to be
Removed but as it vill be removed the Sony logo vil also be gone so there is any one cancelled.me what shd I do now plz
What you should do:
Calm your tits and remove the damaged protector, then put another one on.
But, unless you really love brand names, then don't remove it and have it like you do.
Simple.
Hi. There is no problem. On US You can order new ASF. It's hard to put on screen and cost is 10 $ but if you want ori ASF its no problem
I removed the plastic film because it's damaged. It's been a hassle to tear it off bit by bit, and I have to remove the residue glue, and I put on glass plate afterwards.
I have been wary about losing Sony logo, but it doesn't matter anymore and I like the plain black look of the front.
Hello guys & gals,
So as you all may know how fragile this phone is & with the lack of a full surround case (and brains) the top of the phone is essentially asking to be smashed.
So it finally happened, as I was walking, the phone slipped out of my pocket & landed on the pavement, the top right hand portion of the glass is chipped & there's a very small hairline crack on the glass itself, the digitizer itself is fine, however the front glass absorbed the damage causing it to crack & chip, I was wondering if it's actually possible to just heat the front glass, remove it & stick on a new glass like the one available in the link: https://www.ebay.com/itm/Display-To...202764?hash=item3d793f64cc:g:B7oAAOSwhJFb5xgu
Or would I have to go out of my way to get an entire screen & tear down the phone to replace it, there aren't many videos on this phones repair, plus I can only seem to find the front glass. Any information & help will be appreciated.
Here, they sell it the screen

Hey were you successful in replacing the glass? I see some on Amazon for $30. I'm in the same boat now. If i have to replace the whole display for several hundred dollars I'd rather just bin the phone and buy a different brand.
