In my phone I can also hear this noise.

Can anyone else confirm this little issue on your phone?

Yes, I have it as well, but I don't think that it's a problem. My nexus 7 sounds like that almost on the whole backside.

I talked today with my friend whos got z1c and he said that in his phone Xperia logo isnt clicking but left side of his back panel near magnetic charger is clicking and he feels like there is no glue or is empty space between back panel. I decided to go tommorow to sony center and compare to brand new z1c

[Q] [HELP] Spots on display. DHD in snow

Two weeks ago I fell and hit my smartphone snow. Today I found it and I thought that I will not work. I started my parts and it dried up. But it has started to stain the display. My question is how to get rid of them?
Thank you for your help and sorry for my English
Dwa tygodnie temu wypadł mi smartfon i wpadł do śniegu. Dzisiaj go znalazłem i myślałem że już nie będzie działać. Rozkręciłem go na częśći i wysuszyłem. Uruchomił się ale ma plamy pod wyświetlaczem. Moje pytanie brzmi: jak się ich pozbyć?
Dziękuję za pomoc i przepraszam za mój angielski
What kind of spots we are talking about? Better just take the photo of them and show it for us.

Probably water damage. If so the best solution would be to remove the aluminium back cover and put the device in a bowl of drie rice. Let it sit there for a day or two. It is your best bet to remove the remaining moisture.
Goed luck.

This happened to me as well, I still currently have the spots in the bottom corner of my screen, in cold weather it gets pretty annoying because the display shadows and there is loads of motion blur, the guys at the shop explained that a simple LCD change will fix this problem (as predicted)

Lets put it this way, the shell stops liquid ingression, as long as the particles aren't smaller than regular water then they won't make it inside. What will happen in seawater is that the salt and other chemicals in the seawater will start corroding your O-rings, and eventually they will fail. After exposing your phone to seawater I would recommend washing it in clean water and cleaning the seals with a damp piece of cloth afterward.
I wouldn't, for example, recommend you go swimming in the ocean with it every day for a month.
Aha got it, and what about like 5-6 days for about total 30minutes a day?

As long as you clean it like I mentioned earlier after each exposure.
Is it worth it though? You won't get any reception in the water, you can't use the touchscreen and the speaker will sound like crap. Yeah it's fun for a while, go take some water photos, just be careful with your expensive phone.
Oh, and don't hold me responsible if it breaks due to my advice.

Actually in ocean water there is a chance of getting short circuit through magnetic charger pin.. So sony dont recommend to use it in ocean water but I saw someone in xda reported that z1c survived ocean water...

In order to actually cause any damage the current must be pretty large, that's not going to happen in ocean water. What could happen is dock mode being triggered, and the phone might think its charging, but I doubt it would cause any permanent damage.

I have read it somewhere that sony officially warned to not to use in ocean user.. It is better to be warned than blaming the phone later..

I doubt Sony have said anything official beyond what they state in their IP58 certification where it specifically says "clean water". Meaning water with a neutral pH value. The reason for this is the salts and other chemicals in seawater start to corrode the O-ring in our seals, eventually causing them to leak.
well i will report in a first or second week of july if phone survive salt water,ill test it while shooting vids and pictures of the ocean reff,like i said ill try to use it 5-6 days maximum 30 minutes a day in a several times
I would say that it can survive, provided the flaps are closed and the phone is still waterproof.
like few posts above, the salt in the water may actually damage the loudspeaker and corrode the rings. don't forget its made of metal.
i think its ok to use it for few pics for quick video but needs fresh water cleaning after to clean up the salt in the headphones jack or the speakerphone.
also if u take a macro pic of the camera lens, there is small gap between the back cover and the glass (check my posts i posted some nice macro shots of the camera lens) so things might get inside.
think about the waterproofing as a protection, not as a feature.
so get a call in the rain, but don't go swimming / snorkeling every chance you have.
Didnt understand this with macro pics

Spare part Displays without anti shatter film (ASF)?

Hello,
a few weeks ago, I received a spare part as my display cracked and I wanted to exchange it myself. I ordered it in the UK via eBay.
As the display arrived, everything was okay - it looks the same as the original one, it is just as bright and brilliant.
But one thing confuses me. The anti shatter film that is usually part of the display unit is not there.
The dealer told me that there are no ASFs on the displays.
So far, there is no scratch on the screen and everything else is still okay. Except this detail.
Can anyone confirm this or is the display a fake one?
Thanks in advance!

What should the picture show? The display is now glued to my device and the difference is not really visible.
Usually, you can use your fingernail and feel the ASF at the edges of the glass as the film does not cover the glass completely (maybe half a millimeter is uncovered). This is not possible on my device as there is no ASF.
Do you have a Sony logo on the new display? On my phone this logo was on the ASF, not on the display itself.

Yes, the logo is on the display. On my old display it was on the ASF, too.
I thought I could remove the ASF again to get that clean look, but no.
That's sounds good... Because the Sony logo is printed in the glass... Could you post the link of the spare part?

It seems to me that most of the displays sold on eBay are fake ones as mine. Yesterday, I got another one from another seller in Germany. Same thing. You are right, it is a good idea to print the Sony logo directly on the glass.
After a few weeks with the fake display, I cannot recommend it for the following reasons:
When the display gets dirty or wet, you get crazy input immediately. I have to switch off and clean the display when my device starts to do stuff without me. Absolutely annoying.
Another detail that I noticed during my vacation is that the fake display is not usable in landscape mode when you use polarized sunglasses. The original display has no problem here.
The Sony logo is also printed a bit thicker than on the original.
Well, I got no answer from the German seller so far for my accusation that the display is fake.
And as nobody answered that he got a display without an ASF, I assume that only fake displays do not have it.

Does your Note 7 rattle?

Just received my Note 7.
The first thing I noticed is that every time I touch the screen or shake the device gently it rattles as if there is something loose inside.
Some of this is the S Pen. If I remove it, it doesn't rattle as much but is still there. It appears to be coming from the bottom part of the phone but I can be sure.
I rang Samsung and they kept putting me off saying this is normal and may be the optical stabilisation in camera. I don't believe this to be the case.
The phone works fine other than that. I'm probably being a little fussy but when you spend $1345 on a so call "premium product", you don't expect it to rattle.
Anyone else have this issue?
Wow I would exchange it quick fast and a hurry... Have not received mine yet may I ask what variant or model and carrier it is?

No rattle at all on my att variant.. with or without the spen..
go as fast as you can to have it replaced, no way a rattling can be normal, hurry!

Do you find that it rattles when you type or do anything that requires a really short 'pulse' vibration?
Makes a really tinny rattling noise..
Guys open the camera app and try shaking again it might just be the sensor
It is optical stabilization mechanism. That's normal.

my note 4 has this too.
I always assumed it was the metal buttons rattling, but it's definitely the camera for me.
it becomes almost unnoticeable when the camera is active, but is pretty loud when it's off.
That rattle is your warranty. Calling you to exchange it as fast as possible. Mine doesn't rattle. No phone should

I have the Verizon variant and it rattles. When the camera app is open, it is very faint but still there. I just got this yesterday. Should I exchange, or would I be running in circles? Out of curiosity, I checked my older S3 and S4. They both do the same thing but not as loud as the note 7.
I hear it as well right on the camera, seems it is indeed the stabilisation
I just got off the phone with Verizon and they noted my account as (DOA) and are letting me go to my corporate store in the morning and get it replaced. It is probably normal but I'd rather go on and get it replaced.
Thanks to everyone for the responses. I have the the N930F purchased directly from Samsung Australia.
After a bit more testing it looks like it is the camera. If I start the camera app the rattle goes away. Samsung is saying this is normal and are refusing to replace it. Not sure weather I should be worried about it as some of you are saying you don't have any rattle at all.

Curious about the price you paid - $1300? Really? What does that equate to in US Dollars?
Mine rattles. Around the camera. I've heard other phones with optical stabilization do the same
That sound is normal even in my Galaxy s5 it comes
Its not that much noticable

I bet its the plastic home button that rattles, it has happened on my older Samsung devices as well. Buttons can rattle, check the power button and volume rockers too.
I have to be in a quiet room and put the camera right up to my ear to hear it rattle and even then it's still very faint. If it's any louder than that I would say that you have a little bit of a Problem.
