Hey guys!
One day I woke up and I noticed all the pictures from my camera were weird.. they couldn't focus bright light properly and had a bit of a "glaze" to them. I attached some pics for example. I looked at the lens and after cleaning it found its coating was coming off. Since the Ion is my main camera, do any of you know how to fix this? It would be greatly appreciated!!
Im having the same problem. The only way to fix this is buy another back panel for your phone. Dont use any wet substance or chemicals while cleaning the lens.

nope.
I ended up calling AT&T and they'll send me a new Ion since I'm still under 1 year Warranty and this isn't considered "Physical Damage".
Right now though, I feel like selling my Ion for a HTC One Nexus Edition though... Decisions, decisions..

I have the same problem. My lens has few light scratches and now it takes glazy photos
Actually, I opened up the phone and removed the lens. No side effects, as of now.

You mean using without lens?
I had Xperia S for almost a year and didn't have such problem.
But the Ion has got this problem just in 3 months

It is not because of software.
It is due to the coating that has scratched off.

Hi folks,
I am new here. Yesterday, my smartphone accidentally fell on the ground, and on the bad side. I did not have a protecting case on it, and the display cracked. The weird thing is that the display is still functional, works as good as it worked when the screen was not cracked. Since I used ezSEMC to unlock my phone, and I have also rooted my phone, my warranty is voided. Thus I am wondering what part should I get, and where to buy it online.
Thanks,
Sanil
I had the same problem and mines currently off getting fixed. Most bank accounts have mobile insurance included or optional so i got mine sorted that way. It's an expensive fix otherwise!

Hi everyone,
My wife's side cover that covers the mini usb and hdmi fell off and we do not know where. Is this something that can be replaced? Is this something that is pretty useful or will she be ok without one? Thanks
Sent from my Sony Xperia Ion using Tapatalk 2.
Personally, I have been tempted to remove mine. It's not as annoying as the one on the X10, but sometimes it gets in the way...particularly in the smart dock. Does the missing cover detract from the aesthetic appeal? I would imagine that it would be more hassle than it is worth to replace.

Try the Sony service centre. They might give you the answer why your phone isn't working. Free of charge.

Wow! You repaired it in one day The fastest fix I ever seen... BTW. When I was on practice(school practice, one month) fixing phone l(ordering i.e.screen + touch, and replacing) takes one week. Good to hear that you repaired it so fast and next time hold your phone harder

Well, yes but I can't find any. I need a link.
I'm thinking of getting one on a 2 year contract, will the phone last for 2 years? I mean it's glass on the front and the back right?
And is the reception and call quality good? Can anyone tell me their experience with this phone so far?

You can post here, of course, but I'm not sure that you have a good answer to your request.
It was just a suggest
I think Xperia Z can last longer than Samsung and LG
I always fould people have their samsung screen cracked (some people say LG is weak too)
Sony phones are usually harder compared to most other brand (maybe not as hard as Nokia)
still, people usually found that XZ can be scrached easilly.
One problem of XZ is that the battery cannot be removed normally by us
Since you said u're going to use it for two years, i'm afraid the battery may get bad, then u need to pay sony for expensive replace

Yes, it's scratched easy but it has a pre installed screen protector right?
Yes, there's screen protector that can be removed. But some found that removing the screen protector will also remove the SONY logo
I actually dont mean that the screen is easy to be scrached, but some other parts of the phone
(Some people tell me about it, I'm not sure which part is it exactly)

Removing the pre installed screen protector is the stupidest thing you can do .. It releases all the pressure of the shatter proof glass so now it can crack with the slightest drop ...

You already took it down?? (Well, this is your personal preference. I wont be like u...)
That protector actually have another function...
Sony said that it can reduce internal reflaction of the screen to give a more clear image.
Still, I would recommend u to buy a screen protector yourself.
