Motorola Moto Z2 Force: Can Shattershiel be replaced on Moto Z2 Force?

Wed, 12 Jun 2019 00:14:49 -0700

Mine is scratched in just few weeks of careful use. I’ve also seen that peeling is also quite common. Can it be replaced outside official service? e.g by me? Is just the Shattershield available for sale (not the whole screen+digitizer) and how hard is it to replace?

Motorola Moto Z2 Force: Screen went black but still has feedback and navigation

Thu, 14 May 2020 17:05:11 -0700

The screen on my Z2 Force flickered for a while. Then one day went completely black! i attached the projector motomod to it and it shows tht while the screen is black i can still navigate, it reads my command(selection of icons/widgets, texting, email) it just doesnt display. Could this be a loose faulty ribbon or the LCD?

sidenote ive had the phone for about 1.5 yrs. prior and ofcourse it worked perfectly til this incident

Motorola Moto Z2 Force: Moto z2 Fore shuts off randomly.

Wed, 06 Mar 2019 23:09:05 -0700

My phone shuts off randomly even with full charge. It will just shut off and then won’t turn on unless I smack it really hard. And then will only stay on if it is charging. But the second I unplug it, it turns off. It just happened all of a sudden with no warning.

Motorola Moto Z2 Force: My Moto z2 force won't turn on, at all.

Fri, 16 Oct 2020 08:09:17 -0700

Okay, so my moto z2 force was on 16% so I decided to plug it in accordingly as I was still browsing the internet. In turn it shut off, then would display the moto welcome screen as if it was turning back & vibrate then turn black, this repeated for about a minute until not it just will not turn on at all. This happened before which I had gotten a new phone and put this one in my drawer for a few months… my “new phone” broke so I decided to check for some reason if this phone (moto z2) was back working and to my surprise IT WAS! So I put in my new sim card and it worked for a few months and now did it again. I really need some suggestions as to what I can do to fix this. I need to access this phone as it has all my court information etc. on it. And I unfortunately am without a job or income so a new phone is not even an option. Please HELP!

Motorola Moto Z2 Force: Tape used to secure ribbon cables

Mon, 29 May 2023 07:27:59 -0700

There is a thin, black, flexible tape used to secure the sockets that the ribbon cables plug into. The tape keeps the cable from pulling out as well as holding down the release lever. The tape is very delicate and conforms to wrap the object it is attached to.

Motorola Moto Z2 Force: Problem with fingerprint sensor

Wed, 10 Aug 2022 23:05:10 -0700

After changing my screen the fingerprint sensor is only working very sporadically. I even tried entering new fingerprints and it kept giving me an error message saying that the sensor was dirty, so I cleaned it off with an alcohol wipe and it still didn't work.

Could it be that I just got a faulty screen/sensor?

Motorola Moto Z2 Force: Does the screen replacement in the aricle fix the digitizer issue?

Sun, 31 Jan 2021 03:28:11 -0700

According to a repair shop my Motoz2 force screen frame separated which also caused the digitizer to mess up. So my question is simply if this artice resolves that issue or do I need to buy a digitizer replacement part and look for further help?

Motorola Moto Z2 Force: nothing come up like die after bootloop

Fri, 16 Oct 2020 08:04:07 -0700

g'day mate, not sure if anyone got this issue,

my phone seems dead after bootloop few times.

I've tried hold down power button and

tried vol down+power for a min, still nothing happen on screen, there is no vibration after i press power button, so I think it wasnt about the screen issue.

it has current from my portable charger to the phone, and ive tried to charge the phone with moto z mod, so it shouldnt the battery drain issue, so it has high probability of mainboard issue, not sure if the connector goes off because of the heat issue, anything else i can go for investigate?
