Sony Xperia Z5: Il mio z5 una volta spento non si riavvia se non dopo...

Fri, 15 May 2020 05:36:41 -0700

Buon pomeiggio , descrivo il caso curioso di uno z5 che funziona normalmente in tutto e per tutto ma se lo spengo non vuole saperne di riaccendersi, connesso al caricabatterie non va in carica , il pc nn lo rileva , nessuna combinazione di tasti funziona è completamente morto……….ma se lo metto nel Congelatore per 2 minuti o poco meno si riaccende normalmente e torna a funzionare come se nulla fosse la cosa mi fa sorridere ma non riesco a capire da cosa dipende , ho anche testato alcuni componenti della scheda madre con il mulitmetro ma è come cercare un ago nel pagliaio e ttutto sembra ok, qualcuno ha avuto esperienze simili o mi può aiutare

Sony Xperia Z1 Compact: rottura del connettore della batteria presente sul pcb

Mon, 18 Jun 2018 23:38:47 -0700

Buongiorno,

ho sostituito la batteria del mio smartphone ma si è staccato il connettore della batteria sul pcb, dove posso portarlo a riparare? E' possibile by-passare la batteria ed accendere lo smartphone senza di essa?

Grazie

Marc

Buongiorno,

grazie per il suggerimento per la ricarica della batteria.

Purtroppo il connettore è composto da 2 pezzi, uno fissato al pcb ed uno sulla batterie che si inseriscono l'un l'altro. Nel sostituire la batteria invece che 'sconnettersi' si è staccato il pezzo saldato sul pcb.

Non sono interessato a ripristinare lo smartphone, desidero accenderlo per copiare i dati e poi buttarlo.

Purtroppo senza batteria non si avvia e cercando in internet non ho trovato nessun modo per by-passarla con qualche 'cavallotto'. Se collego l'alimentatore tramite connettore usb il led rosso lampeggia ma lo smartphone non si accende.

Grazie per il supporto

Marc

Sony Xperia Z1 Compact: Flat Touch Screen si scollega

Mon, 01 Jan 2018 10:35:21 -0700

Salve a tutti, avrei bisogno di un suggerimento/informazione, ho da sostituire il display di un Sony Xperia Z1 Compact ma ahimè il ricambio che mi è arrivato (essendo commerciale) ha un difetto. Il FLAT del touchscreen ogni volta che viene piegato si solleva e scollega. Volevo sapere se esiste qualche tipo di colla particolare che si possa applicare per tenerlo fermo e non rovinare il connettore. Vi allego anche una foto del connettore.

Grazie in anticipo.

Sony Xperia 10 VI: Screen glass broken, touch and display working

Tue, 11 Aug 2026 04:38:31 -0700

Hi. I dropped my phone and the screen glass is broken now even though I had a glass protector on. Anyways, I do not want to replace the entire LCD which costs as much as the phone itself. I have seen replacement glass on AliExpress for like $5. I could not find any guide on how I can do this or is it even doable.

Sony Xperia Z5: Cameras and the Flash Don't Work

Tue, 21 Jul 2026 23:41:50 -0700

I've been facing this issue for months now, Whenever I tap camera app or any other third party camera app like snapchat, candycamera or camera in the whatsapp or facebook or instagram, the system hangs for 5-10 seconds and the respective app crashes and there's no cameras and no flash. When I ran the system diagnostics using *#*#7378423#*#* the rear camera diagnostic also gave the same black screen and gave a message that the camera not connected whereas the flash test said that the flash should be on whereas it wasn't and finally the front camera diagnostic crashed the system diagnostic tool completely. Now any advises on which camera should I get replaced?

SONY Xperia XZ3: Temperature of reflowing the WiFi chip

Sun, 12 Jul 2026 01:01:53 -0700

I bought a secondhand Sony xz3 (Japanese model SOV39) and immediately after charging it up it began to lag and restart itself. The WiFi wouldn’t turn on and the SIM card didn’t work. I did a software reset and somehow it fixed itself. So I happily used it for a couple of days but after about 8 days it started to freeze then restart itself and refuse to turn on WiFi, and a software reset and common methods like turning on airplane mode didn’t stop it from rebooting. Bluetooth is fully functional, resetting network would result in a reboot, and rebooting in safe mode didn’t help.

After some research I now suspect that the WiFi IC has failed/desoldered itself, and is now planning to reflow or replace it if I have to. However, I don’t have a lot of experience with microsoldering and last time I attempted a similar repair I ended up cooking my hand and tearing half of the solder pads off.

Can anyone recommend a temperature I should set my hot air station to? Thanks in advance

Sony Xperia M2: Touch Screen not working proprely

Wed, 24 Jun 2026 02:17:25 -0700

After replacing my broken touch screen and display I noticed that the touch screen isn't responding correctly to my actions. For instance the back, home and minimize buttons don't respond or when typing a message it presses random letters. Do have any ideia why? Is it a defectuous touch screen or some other hardware danificated?

Sony Xperia M2: The phone doesn't prompt for "Network unlock code"

Fri, 24 Apr 2026 09:04:54 -0700

Simply i am stuck!

A couple of services for unlocking locked devices rejected me because my device doesn't prompt for unlock code.

When i insert non supported sim card the device reboots and that's it, no prompt for entering unlock code, nor when i inserted another sim.

I tried with force USSD code to show me the unlock menu but that doesn't work either.

Sony Xperia C: Sony Xperia C4 Dual won't power on after 2 years of storage – no respo

Mon, 20 Apr 2026 22:10:22 -0700

My Sony Xperia C4 Dual was working fine but I bought a new phone and left this one unused and uncharged for approximately two years. It was stored in a normal room temperature environment without any physical damage or water exposure.When I tried to use it again recently:I plugged in the original charger but the phone showed no response at all (no lights, no vibration, nothing).

I took it to a phone repair shop. The technician replaced the battery with a new, fully charged one.

The phone showed a green charging indicator light, so it appears to be receiving power.

However, when pressing the power button (or any button combination), the phone still does not turn on – there is absolutely no reaction, no logo, no vibration, nothing on the screen.

The repair technician suspects the problem might be with the motherboard (main board), but I would like a second opinion before proceeding with an expensive repair.Additional details:Model: Sony Xperia C4 Dual (E5333 / E5343 – dual SIM version)

The phone was not dropped, wet, or exposed to extreme heat/cold during storage.

No visible corrosion or damage inside when the battery was replaced.

Has anyone experienced a similar issue with an Xperia C4 (or similar Sony Xperia models) after long-term storage? Could it be a simple fix like a faulty power button, corrupted firmware, or a deeper motherboard issue? Any troubleshooting steps or repair guides would be greatly appreciated!
