Black spots on camera experiance.

My experience.
My backplate had cracks and needed to be replaced so I taught I look at the camera that has black spot syndrome.
Tried to clean it with compressed air.no use.
Dissembeled cameras lens part (needs soldering) and cleaned sensor.
Looks like some spots are gone but most of them are there.
No thinking that the problem isnt sensor but lenses.to be exact between lenses part that cant dissasemble easily.
Has enyone tried to fix it by himself?

No. I've simply returned it because it's not my duty to fix it. This shouldn't happen in the first place (no cracks, never put it in water, always had a case etc).

anyone knows how much it cost to fix the camera blackspot problem? coz my Z warranty period is over

[Q] Waterproof Temperature?

Is there a limit to the waterproofing temperature of the Z1?
I get that I can dunk it in a freshwater pool, or clean it off in the sink, but what if I spill my glass of tea on it? (It being near boiling point)

I have try it in an Swimmingpool at my work. It works fine.

While I have no idea about limits, sudden changes in temperature are bad to anything, whether waterproof or not.
Think of it the same as how a hot cup can shatter when placed on ice.

It would be best to just ask Sony. Second hand information for something like this is a terrible idea unless someone can point directly to data published by Sony.

ist guess it wouldn`t be good to drop it in hot water. not because of the waterproof. my thoughts are about the glass. as we all know that glass cracks easily in sudden changing temperatures.

I can say that I use my Sony Tablet Z and my Z1 in my hot tub set at 104 F with no issues. I have dunked both but typically mount the tab just above the rim but it has fell in several times.

Hmm..
Maybe if u just spoil ur glass with hot water i think it wont do any damage..
But its a different story if u dip it on a hot water..
And like posts above, sudden temperatue change is very bad for materials..
Well its just my opinion..

Questions about screen replacement for cheap

Hey guys. Today was the day i broke my S7 Edge its screen. Its the first time i broke a phone screen. It looks very bad even though it was in a case which held up the screen from the ground. Anyways, i want to let a phone shop repare it. But the phone shop is not a Samsung partner. What are the cons of this. Will the phone still be water resistent and is there a chance that the screen might not be original. Is there a chance that the new display isnt even 1440p but 1080p. Is there a chance the replacement screen wont be an AMOLED screen? I have mixed feelings about it. Anyways I would like to ask you guys for help

Well for one thing, what you're thinking is highly unlikely, if not impossible. If the screen replacement wasn't the same resolution, or wasn't AMOLED, it won't work, because the circuits, drivers, firmware and software will be different. The water resistance may be a problem though. Even if repaired in a Samsung partner, there is no guarantee that it will still be water resistant.

Thanks for your help sir. But i have got another question. Does samsujg sell its parts to shops which are nkt authorized by samsung?

Honestly I have no idea. I never go to non Samsung authorized centers.

They have procedures like factory, so you won't notice the difference - search for OCA or LOCA screen. If your screen is ok, then replace glass only. LCD is easy to replace, but it'll cost about 300$ just for the part. Glass replacement in my country is 120$ with replacement and 12 months guarantee.
Remember that in factory there are also humans, who assemble that magic

My LCD is also damaged. Have 3 sets of dead pixels. But my phoneits guarantee will not be valid anymore if i do it at a non authorized samsung shop. Thanks anyways for your help. Will look on youtube about the OCA and LOCA

Cover sensor stuck 'activated'

So I broke my Note 3's (N900W8) display at some point last year and let it sit for...a long while.
I replaced the screen about a month ago and I've noticed that the cover sensor is...well, stuck. It always thinks there's a cover attached and it's 'closed', resulting in an unusable device.
Occasionally it'll work fine for a few days, then go back to this state.
Does anyone know what I can do to fix this outside of recompiling my AOSP ROM of choice and disabling the cover support?
I definitely don't have anything magnetic in or on the phone.

For disabling the cover I would do a hardware trick. Remove your back cover, use Tesa Film on the chip in the back cover. Put cover back. No it should run like without S-view cover. You should also dial *#0*#0 to go to the service menu and check all your sensors to see which is damaged.

Well, that's the fun thing.
I don't even have an S-view cover. It just acts like the magnetic sensor is on all the time...
