Hello,
recently I hear a tik tik when I push back of my phone, it's the area under SONY logo to xperia logo
Is it serious or a bad problem?
Thanks a lot
Had it for past 5 months, doesnt seem serious
WOW thanks, also my laptop had this problem (SONY again), but it fixed itself ) but for my phone, I thought it's a serious problem.
Read my thread, same issue
Same issue on my phone too, the online retailer rejected my warranty claim / said they didn't notice it at all!
My main concern is if this affects the waterproofing? Anyone with creaking back panel had any water issues?

Is there any news about the known problem about screen alignment or calibration?
Some people claims that is a software related problem. Some other people report it as a hardware problem. Any confirmation ony any side?
Any comment from the HTC support service?
Has anybody got it repaired with succes? Not?
Any information is wellcome.
I think it's been well documented by now as a hardware problem. I've traded two on warrantee and finally got one that didn't have the problem
I agree it is hardware issue simply because my Wizard is not having any alignment issues and i have owned it for a month. If it were software i should have experienced the same alignment issues that plague a lot of others.
I only have the issue when I get dirt, lint or other pocket goodies under the edge of my screen.

Which I would be inclined to say is the trouble. I have had this for the same reason.
I would say the wizard is re-aquiring the edges of the screen when there is some sort of crap pressing on it, and thus, skewing the screen off centre.
LOL, Thats my opinion and I'm sticking by it, LOL
Hi to all!
here in Portugal, some qtek 9600 (HTC TyTn) have trouble whith Screen Calibration and, HTC are reparing them.... so, if you talk whith QTEK, HTC, and all other seller, they sould fix this problem.
Sometimes a software cause after all???

UPDATE: REMOVED, WRONG DEVICE
it arrived yesterday at htc repair and ive been watching the repair tracking site. i had some pixel problems, like a quarter of my screen was darkened grey.
Keep in mind my phones bootloader unlocked, rooted, haha and i sent it in as is running the latest miui. Why? idno.
Anyways. I just checked the repair site and it says:
Ticket Information
Status: We are repairing your phone.
Service Type: Repair
Issue Description: top screen is darker that the rest of the device
I havent approved to pay for any repairs for an out of warranty phone. So i guess im off the hook right? I think im about to prove that htc repair people dont give a F***!
THought id share..
Uhhh, we have known this for a year now. It has been proven time and time again that HTC will warranty repair hardware defects, despite an unlocked bootloader.
This is nothing new or surprising.
Did someone has problems with the multi-touch screen: lags, do not respond or random reactions ...even when having a call ?
the solution for now is to push "shutdown button" and it seems to reinitialize the sensors for the screen ... isn't it weird ? It occurs 40% of the time ...
The menu for reinitialize sensors/calibration do not exist (for HTC Legend/Hero you can re-calibrate the sensors).
Do you have same problems ?
I will send it for repair soon...
im having the same problem, ive had it for a long time now, ive gone threw 20 Roms. so i know its not software related, or is it something the devs are over looking??
weird thing ....do Googlers have same problem when demonstrating navigation/goggles/phone calls/voice recognitions .....or do we fall on bad series ???
definitely hardware problem or something no-one has been aware of ....?

Sometimes it's worse than others, I think if the phone is running something pretty intense it happens more often. Otherwise, no, there's no calibration. Calibration doesn't make sense on a capacitive screen.
The touch screen issues have been known since the beginning, and the solution of quickly turning the screen off and on has been known for just as long.
It's part of the hardware, and most if not all Nexus owners experience it once in a while.
Getting a warranty replacement for that will not fix anything, it is a flaw in the hardware design.
Good thing to know that...but really weird for such a device...they probably think about it when starting/choosing next nexus.... ;-)

I'm curious whether they'll return it with a relocked bootloader and stock ROM
i've noticed that the only time i have touchscreen response issues is when i use my N1 without a case on it and it seems to be because some of my fingers touch or get near the edges of the screen glass. i have a silicone slip on case and when its on the phone it prevents me from touching the glass accidentally at the edges and i never experience any response problems when its on the phone. just my 2c.

yeah that would annoy the crap outta me as well, glad mine does not exhibit this problem.
i'd love to guesstimate how old mine is but i'm the second owner, it might be possible that they fixed this hardware issue in later build revisions or it could just be a random problem with the touchscreen/module, some do it and some don't idk.

was it amoled or slcd though lol
i have to make the call when i get up. today my usb port was gone from the phone when i went to plug it in tonight. i never used to have the screen issue, it slowly started happening and now it happens all the time, i lay it flat in my hand and i hit a button on screen and my menu pops up etc.
nice to see a recent time frame though, i'm dreading going without my phone and having a dumbphone replacement. would love to know if it was amoled or slcd you got back though, thats my one worry
I recently noticed in my galaxy s4 that the gap between the screen and the bezel gets thicker in the side where the power button is near the bottom corner(i added a picture so you will know what i mean) and i just wanted to know if you have this too.
i can't get this device replaced because where i live cosmetic issues are not covered by warranty.

Ive noticed it before when i had a s3 took it back got another and it wasnt there just try and take it back and ask for a replacement if you say you cannot because of where you live cosmetic issues are not covered by warranty say there is other problems like hardware issues etc.
Thank you very much, but still , if i tell them that i have hardware problems they will send the device to the lab and they will send me a new one only if they will find an issue and won't be able to fix it .
S i'm asking again: do you have the problem i noted in the thread too?
for the past week my screen has been going whacked out on me.
the on-screen buttons would start clicking on their own, and sometimes the screen becomes unresponsive,
BUT
when i turn it off, and back on, it would work perfectly fine .
so i basically get a 50/50 chance if the screen going crazy on me...
now if it was the Digitizer, wouldnt the problem be ALL THE TIME?
as opposed to being random, could it be a BUG ?
Can anyone please help or advice, thanks !
If a factory reset doesn't fix it it is probably hardware. I have seen intermittent problems with digitizers before.

not really,
but my problem is as follows...
i purchased the phone from T-Mobile, FULL PRICE $500..
so theres no insurance from anywhere...wonder who would do any work on it for me ...Google or LG ? i know it wont be T-Mo
Have you called them? I don't understand why they would not honor the warranty.

Read the book that came in the box. Manufacturers defects pretty much always have a 1 year warranty.
Oh and LG.
Sent from my Nexus 4, running Carbon Nightly + Matr1x Kernel v10

I have a similar-sounding issue (on-screen buttons flashing wildly, et al.); I am thinking of opening the device to check on connection
Is it more or less likely, in your experience, that the connection between the display assembly and the board is loose from impact or whatever, or that the digitizer itself is just defective?
Thanks for your help.
I had the exact same problem on my device and it can be due to two reasons.
1. If your phone get extremely hot during use then the screen starts behaving abnormally.
2. If you had dropped your phone then there is a slight chance that you have damaged the digitizer.
I had the second problem and I have replaced the screen and it is working normally again.
The phone has been out for most of us just little over a month and there have been many reports about front/rear glass cracking, so now I made this poll to see how many people actually have/had problems with their device.
Please note that this poll is only about hardware problems, so don't vote yes if you only had software related problems, thank you.
To be clear:
Vote yes: If you had glass cracking (with/without) a reason, flaps not closing properly, phone not being waterproof, etc
Vote no: If you had no problems, software related problems
Bump!
Don't forget to vote!
I voted yes due to a way too sensitive touchscreen - putting a screenprotector on however solves the problem, but I take it that it is the out of the box product we have to vote about...
(To the - right now 13 persons - who have voted no - does this also mean that you don't have the popping issue when pressing the screen? Or is this looked at as a feature...? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9JrfMjiNB9E)
Nope. I've had nothing wrong with the phone, no "popping", no "glass breaking" even though I accidentally did drop it today.
Nothing. I'm convinced most of you are playing baseball with your phones, or just being extremely picky.
Not any problem at all. This phone lives up to its expectations but i also keep it protected with case though.
i had the phone for 3 weeks. i bought a magnetic charger and was using that. last week i went to take the charger off the phone and the whole magnetic charging "module" came out of the phone with the charger. it's currently back at sony for repair - i'm really hoping they just send me a new one though. that was a fun discovery. anyway, no problems with glass or anything like that in the time i had it, though.
Not a single problem so far.
Btw, good initiative!
However, I think that since only people with glass issues post that on the forum, it's not surprising that it looks as if it's a major problem.

Yeah, that's the main reason why I made this poll, due to so 'many' people reporting issues with their phones it might scare people off that intend to buy the phone.

Hmmm could there be a connection between the popping screens and the very sensitive screens? Mine has the popping and also a screen that sometimes during internet scrolling has a life of its own speedscrolling up to the top of homepages when lifting the finger from the screen - an issue I have never ever had before on any of my many previus phones...???

Yep:

And bump.
I would assume that more then 42 people have this phone on this forum.
The plastic frame is so weak, i drop once and inside the frame its cracked . After that i use a case then dropped again this time between part of the plastic frame n front glass a piece of part came out. Rest is very good. No prob at all.

hello,
"Z3 Compact" bought the 28.09.2014. The phone is turned off itself in the middle of the day in my pocket. The battery level was approx. 75% => Black screen, not even light on the charger...:S
The Sony support told me to send them with charger and usb cable.
I am waiting for news... approx. 10 days...
NO issues so far... put a tempered glass screen protector on the phone pretty soon after buying it, but I never saw any screen popping or "life of its own" syndrom while I had the screen unprotected.
no issues so far , i had some bad experience with singapore firmware , but its all good now (using latest brazil firmware).
i did drop it a week ago , tempered glass cracked abit , phone also got abit of a spank on the top right corner, still water proof.
all good just no ****ing root
Sudden Death after two weeks.
Had this awesome phone since October 3rd. All fine and dandy till now, the vibration would work sometimes. It comes and goes but it's no biggie, I can live with it!
Gyroscope defect
Yes.
I had the phone for only 3 days and the phone suddenly stop rotating. I did a factory restore and even trying running the system test. Compass test tells me function is not available. Sony says it might be a hardware issue so I had to send it to Sony to get it fixed.
My mic has become strange. People say that I sound like I'm a mila away from it.
