<description><![CDATA[<p>Hello friends, I want to know what is the best thing to clean the phone, in the past I used warm water then I started using vinegar then ethyl alcohol but I do not really know what is the best thing to clean the phones, I mean cleaning is cleaning the phone from outside like the screen, headphone jack and micro usb port, and from inside like logic board ?</p>

<title><![CDATA[Sony Xperia Z3 Dual: Loudspeaker Antenna low volume]]></title>
<description><![CDATA[<p>Hello,</p>

<p>I had a problem with Xperia D6633 loudspeaker. So I disassembled the phone and tested the speaker.</p>

<p>The speaker sound and level is fine, but as soon as I place the small plastic antenna part (the one that clips over the loudspeaker) the sound becomes very low.</p>

<p>Has anyone experienced that problem, and if so how did you solve it?</p>

<p>Thanks</p>

<title><![CDATA[Sony Xperia Z3 Dual: There dust on camera sensor, cannot get rid of it..]]></title>
<description><![CDATA[<p>Hi! Very helpful video! I have dust on my camera. I tore don the phone, cleaned the lens and used a rocket blower to blow the dust but it stays there. When I remove the main camera and move it around, still connected, the dust particles do not move with the picture , therefore the dust must be somewhere else inside the phone... Seems its on the sensor and the sensor is not part of the lens. Is this correct? Any ideas where this dust might be? Thanks for any help!![http://file:///Users/oisingormally/Downloads/DSC_0001.JPG]</p>

<div class="clearer"></div><div class="headerContainer"><h3 id="Section_Update_12_07_Num_2017" class="header">Update (12/07/2017)</h3></div>

<p>Thanks again Scott!</p>

<p>Here is a quick video. The camera is still connected but is out of the phone so I can move it around.</p>

<p>YesterdayI was convinced the dust spots did not move with the camera and I thought the dust was somewhere else than the little camera module.</p>

<p>But now I think you are right, I will order the replacement camera !</p>

<title><![CDATA[Sony Xperia Z3 Dual: Screen is not turning on despite replacing the LCD, Main flex cable]]></title>
<description><![CDATA[<p>Hi there, This is my first time here at this forum but I really need help and I'm hoping somebody in this world will help me get my phone out of its coma :)</p>

<p>So the last September I got myself this used Z3 dual ( d6633 )  from a guy I know, The phone was in a descent condition, only changed the back cover and main flex cable as his previous owner stated at the time (which turned out to be a lie) , but after 3 days of using I noticed that the screen is a little bit out of the frame and I decided to open it up and put the double face adhesive in a different way under the screen in order to make it well glued to the phone. Of course when I opened it up I found that the last person who fixed this phone had actually put adhesive under the middle of the screen not only on the frame which upon trying to get the screen out it completely was torn apart and I had to get a new one.</p>

<div class="imageBox imageBox_left"><img src="https://guide-images.cdn.ifixit.com/igi/ZjmfAnnn5hCtKPDR.standard" width="169" height="225" class="hasMenu hasLarge" alt="Block Image" onclick="window.open(&quot;https:\/\/guide-images.cdn.ifixit.com\/igi\/ZjmfAnnn5hCtKPDR.huge&quot;, '', 'width=900,height=1200')" /></div>

<p>So I bought a new screen, new main flex cable and an antenna plate cover . <strong>I noticed that there was no antenna plate cover in the phone and it was working fine but I thought I should buy it anyways.'''</strong>bold text'''</p>

<div class="imageBox imageBox_left"><img src="https://guide-images.cdn.ifixit.com/igi/MA5uJP51wvbvaa2Q.standard" width="169" height="225" class="hasMenu hasLarge" alt="Block Image" onclick="window.open(&quot;https:\/\/guide-images.cdn.ifixit.com\/igi\/MA5uJP51wvbvaa2Q.huge&quot;, '', 'width=900,height=1200')" /></div>

<p><em>Now </em>I connected the new flex cable and attached the antenna plate to the little board down there in under the battery and connected the new LCD, but no hope!</p>

<p>when I booted up I heard the opening sounds but the screen wasn't working.  Also I can use the camera button to take pictures (knowing from the sounds) but the screen is not turning on!</p>

<p>Also worth mentioning that</p>

<p>1. There is a little wire coming out under the Main board (See pics)  That I don't know if it is important or not but I assume that it had a thing to do with the down board or something, I don't know!</p>

<div class="imageBox imageBox_left"><img src="https://guide-images.cdn.ifixit.com/igi/AVOcPxxEJHTbBcWI.standard" width="169" height="225" class="hasMenu hasLarge" alt="Block Image" onclick="window.open(&quot;https:\/\/guide-images.cdn.ifixit.com\/igi\/AVOcPxxEJHTbBcWI.huge&quot;, '', 'width=900,height=1200')" /></div>

<p>2. When I watched assembly videos of my phone on youtube I noticed that there is a thin metallic plate that is put under the small board (see pics) this plate I don't have in my phone!</p>

<div class="imageBox imageBox_left"><img src="https://guide-images.cdn.ifixit.com/igi/uRshoWKj6q6fIlI2.standard" width="282" height="132" class="hasMenu hasLarge" alt="Block Image" onclick="window.open(&quot;https:\/\/guide-images.cdn.ifixit.com\/igi\/uRshoWKj6q6fIlI2.full&quot;, '', 'width=1349,height=633')" /></div>

<div class="imageBox imageBox_left"><img src="https://guide-images.cdn.ifixit.com/igi/XRPOeReOu2BJ1nxB.standard" width="282" height="211" class="hasMenu hasLarge" alt="Block Image" onclick="window.open(&quot;https:\/\/guide-images.cdn.ifixit.com\/igi\/XRPOeReOu2BJ1nxB.huge&quot;, '', 'width=1600,height=1200')" /></div>

<p>3. As I mentioned the phone was working without either the thin plate under the small board or the antenna cover over it ( That's why I think that the thin wire coming out of the main board actually had a role to replace them)</p>

<p>Please if you had a similar situation tell me what could possibly be the reason why the screen is not turning on! and Is that wire really was intended to do something or not? If I buy another screen will that work or is it something else that is making the screen not go on?</p>

<title><![CDATA[Sony Xperia Z3 Dual: Why is the device booting itself every 2-3 seconds?]]></title>
<description><![CDATA[<p>I was using my Sony Z3 Dual at 12% battery. I opened Snapchat and then suddenly the screen flashed and started <strong>rebooting on its own every 2-3 seconds.</strong>  I have contacted Xperia Care and they suggested me to charge the phone up to 80% and perform software repairs using their pc companion.</p>

<p>However on charging the phone i have found an issue that the charging LED (red) is <strong>blinking with the screen </strong>and does <em>not remain on</em>. I charged for approx 1 hour and was expecting the red led to stop blinking and change into orange led (indicating battery% above 15) which did not happen. On removing the charger the device stops  rebooting which i assume that it ran out of its juice implying that no charge got in  and the charge that got in was used to boot the device for the instant.</p>

<p>Please help me in finding a solution</p>

After 2-3 hours of listening musing, cell stopped generating heat, and become cool. However, there is problem with cell range (GSM, data transfer and WiFi). Cell needs to have strong signal to get connected with the net (GSM, data transfer, WiFi. Bluetooth was not checked). Cell phone works properly, the only fault is very weak signal. Which component is affected?</p>

<title><![CDATA[Sony Xperia Z3 Dual: Memory card resets phone]]></title>
<description><![CDATA[<p>Hi</p>

<p>I have changed the frame on my Xperia z3 compact. Got frame delivered with new LCD.</p>

<p>took every bits and pieces from the old one over. Everything with the LCD touch and software seems to work fine, but some how the  memory card stoped working :/</p>

<p>when i take it out, and put it back in the phone restarts.</p>

<p>i think something is wrong around where the card is read. And i think maybe it is the camera bracket as people say its called.</p>

<p>What is the meaning of this &quot;bracket&quot; can i take it away? or is there another solution?</p>

<p>thanks for all help guys! greatings from Norway</p>]]></description>
