Sony Xperia Z5 Premium: My Phone has died

Fri, 07 Dec 2018 05:38:25 -0700

Had my phone on charge overnight the same as I always do. This morning it would not come on and appears to be dead. One strange thing though there is a small white dot of a light which flashes periodically in the top left corner of the screen. Tried charging further on a different socket, tried turning on/off but can’t tell if it is on or off now. Phone has been working ok until this morning. As far as I’m aware I haven’t done anything silly with downloads or applications. Any ideas?

Sony Xperia Z5 Premium: Is the proximity sensor meant to be loose on a Z5 premium?

Sun, 31 Jul 2016 06:16:23 -0700

hi i am replacing the full screen unit on a Sony Z5 Premium. I have removed the screen but it seems that the proximity sensor is loose and not soldiered to the board. Is this meant to be the case? if so which way round do i put it back in? Seems odd to me but its the first Z5 premium i have worked on although i have done many other Sony xperia phones before. There isnt any sign of soldier either. Very strange. :( thank you.

not sure if you can see in these pics.

Sony Xperia Z5 Premium: Internal screen damage from fall

Tue, 05 Jan 2021 23:59:42 -0700

I have a Sony xperia z5 premium (dual sim). I dropped it, and. Is the screen went black with colored lines, nothing else. Won’t boot up that I can tell anyway. It’s not cracked on the putter screen at all. I’m looking around to see what I may need to replace, where to get it and how to fix it myself. The phone repair shop here in town wants $115.00. And I don’t have the money to spend on someone else repairing it.

Sony Xperia Z5 Premium: Built-in vibrator stopped working

Fri, 13 Jul 2018 09:47:10 -0700

My phone was ok, but one night it fell from my bed (50 cm high) and after a few hours I realized the vibrator stopped working whenever I was texting, then I asked someone to call me and it rang but not vibrated, and it hasn't ever since.

I don't want to take it to a technitian because in my city they are not very reliable.
