Sat, 28 Oct 2017 14:03:20 -0700

I recently replaced the LCD screen and after putting it back together it doesn't turn on when the battery is connected. When i disconnect the battery cable the screen lights up and the battery icon shows up. When i plug it back in the LED light flashes three times and nothing happens.

Sony Xperia Z2: Why is my phone turning off by itself?

Sun, 15 May 2022 23:19:39 -0700

My phone turns off by itself any time of the day. Sometimes it starts using the power button. Otherwise, I have to plug into the charger to start. Also, note that phones battery is fine because that is already charged when I plug in. I think it has some hardware issue. Any help will be highly appreciated. Thanks.

Sony Xperia Z2: Top of the screen does not respond to touch?

Thu, 10 Sep 2015 18:56:18 -0700

I took my Xperia Z2 to vacation with me. I took a few photos underwater (pool), not too deep tho, the problem was when I came back, a week later the top of the screen didnt recognize the touch, just right in the notification area, it is the rectangle on the top about 1 inch so I cant check my notifications unless I turn the phone, and this is becoming so annoying. I ran the test for the screen and indeed it does not recognize the top of the screen. I read in a LG G2 forum that sometimes this happened and it was because some cables were disconnected. I dont know if this problem can happen in the Z2 but I wanted to ask if someone had this problem and how did you solve it, otherwise I could buy a replacement, they are about $80 but I rather connect the cable. The LCD is fine, the only thing that doesnt work is the top of the touch. Thanks in advance and sorry for my english.

Sony Xperia Z2: Stuck in boot loop

Mon, 14 Mar 2016 12:07:22 -0700

This morning my phone was vibrating for no reason, so I restarted it and instead of booting properly it got stuck in a loop. Now nothing I do makes a difference. It starts up normally and before prompting for a PIN it goes back to the beginning. Does anyone have a suggestion as to what I should do next?

Sony Xperia Z2: My wifi has very bad reception

Thu, 06 Aug 2015 12:30:52 -0700

I received this Z2 back from Warranty Repairs. The repair process took to long, so i got another device, and was allowed to keep the repaired one without warranty.

Now the only problem i have, is when i want to connect to a WiFi network, i have to stay REALLY close to the Router.

When walking like 3 feet away from it, the signal drops and i cannot connect.

3G/4G work fine. Bluetooth seems buggy aswell.

any ideas?

Thanks in advance,

Maurice, Netherlands

Sony Xperia Z2: Poor battery life due to water damage

Sat, 16 Jan 2016 21:30:17 -0700

I've got a water damaged Sony a2, that's the Japanese version of this phone. It's been water damaged due to use in the shower. The phone seems a bit buggy apart from short battery life but I think this may be due to a broken power button. Is it worth trying to fix or will the water damage effect other areas?
