Most of the time it will solve itself. Its the glue they used that needs to dry for a few weeks. I take it your manufacturing date is fairly recent? You can find it on the box.
You can use a UV lamp to help cure the glue properly. It has to be a specific type though, go to a nail salon and ask put your phone under one of their lamps. You only need to do it for ten minutes.

I saw a utube video which says it works with both UV and also keeping it under direct sun for an hour or two? is that correct?

Its on the back of the white thin box. It will say man date I think. But for sure it will have month and day format(maybe year too).

It really doesn't matter anyway, it doesn't change the fact that you have yellow tinting. Just use a UV lamp as suggested and hopefully it'll clear it up.

Some users have reported that sunlight helps, but it'd take quite a few hours because the UV isn't concentrated. Don't you have nail salons anywhere near you? Nothing bad will happen if you keep using the phone.

I am from Bangladesh and here as far as I know there is no such saloons. There are beauty parlors but which are restricted to female entry only and I also dont know what kind of services they provide, but probably UV is not among them.
But we do have good sunlight. I can keep it under direct sunlight for 2-3 hours if that has the possibility to fix this issue and while not harming the phone.

Hi,
Just wondering if any devs will come across this thread since I was hoping that they can make somehow a touch screen calibration app for the z1 since it really has touch issues. You may refer to the thread found in the sony forums and youtube to see how worse is the issue.
Touch screen fails to recognize touches and its really annoying that it affects the daily use and you cant use your phone when gaming..
I really hope someone kind will help me out as this will also be a great help to other people who have the same exact problem.
Many thanks.

Is there a difference between your flashable zip and the one here in the forums? my model is c6903 LTE. will it affect my phone since I'm using what's designated in my country. Or if that did not solve the issue can I use SUS to revert back to my original firmware?
EDIT ADD: so you do have before the touch issue when using the phone during games and when its flat on a surface in which the phone stops registering touches?

I just merged 259's system in flashable .257 zip.
You can uncheck all "Wipe:" and uncheck Kernel only and check all others in "Exclude:" to prevent overwriting your system or baseband.
I'm using C6903 UK LTE, I flashed my zip and kernel only and I can still use LTE on .259 with no problem.
Yes, you can always use SUS or Flashtool to reverting back.
My issue was during games.

Thanks for the detailed explanation mate, I'll send a pm also to you later. I'll try what you have said by the time I got home. I hope it works. For the mean time, may I ask a favor? can you please try placing your z1 on a flat surface and try running the service test to see if the problem is really solved since the issue is very hard to replicate. Several tries/attempts are needed.
First try placing your phone on top of a paper, then on a pillow and last is on a flat table.
Sorry to trouble you but you really got my hopes up for my ****ty z1.

Thanks mate, been waiting for your reply as I'm refreshing the page once in a while. Have you tried continuous lines or scribble since that triggers the problem when you're using the screen continuously without lifting your finger.
Sorry if I'm really bothering you but I really just have to confirm and once this fixed the problem, I can share your tip to the guys at the sony forum so that they will be freed from the touch screen curse. I really appreciate your help and effort.

Yep, that's my main gripe with the touch issue as it loses touch and returns again. I'll try what you have told me at home then if it works or not I'll get back to you.
I'll be holding on to what you have said that the touch problem is not there anymore since you flashed .259 :good:
users on .259 reported that their touchscreen issue was not solved even after updating to .259
Really sucks since my problem gets from worse to worse day by day

So your saying that flashing the 259 kernel alone would be enough to eradicate the touch screen issue? Don't really want to flash another rom but it is annoying.

If you get it then put it out here, let the community benefit.
As for customer support, i emailed them about the bootloader issue with people who have a status of No and the response was just like i was speaking with a robot, i asked is there a way around it and that the previous response was neither helpful nor educational and I got another of the same responses, i've sent a third email asking if they just copy and paste an email from a list and if I don't get a human response with at least a glimmer of hope then i'll be boycotting Sony for life and i'll make sure everyone knows how poor their services are.
I've never asked them a question in my life, I did mention that and this is the response I get, lol forget that, I've learnt a few lessons from getting this phone, first one being never buy a sony again and second, always check if the bootloader is unlockable and not locked because of a networks request.
Hey guys, I'm trying to theme my signal icons and the style I'm going for means I need to colour the data connection but I'm struggling to pick a color, given the status bar is often transparent, black out white.
This is cell and WiFi

Which works well and i like it. But even with an outline, the data connection is hard to see so I have decided that the only way is a different colour. White and black are obviously out. As is an semi-transparent colour, like the grey no signal bars.
Here is a screenshot
Anyone have any thoughts or advice please?

The problem with cell is it's already a white layer on top of a semi transparent layer, on top of any colour you can think of layer. In the original configuration (not mine, google's) the data type is in the same location as my first attempt, but there is no white or transparent layer behind it, so it works.
I actually like what I have now. I just wasn't sure before doing it how easy it would have been to move it, otherwise I would have done anyway. I did move it to centre of cell as black but I still found it quite small and hard to see, with all the lines causing an optical headache

It looks gorgeous, but the fp placement ruined it
I prefer the front fp placement because of unlocking from the table right away without lifting the phone. The Huawei phone with rear fp, will have on screen navigation keys (= less screen estate) as Huawei barely uses Capacitive ones. And i think this shape takes least space compared to the round iphone or on the meizu phone. So ease of use and maximum usage of front bottom bezel.
The best fp placement is on the side (in the power button)

Make sure you get an unlocked version and see if setting up english language works for you as changing the system language is easy but apps still shows chinese. And also, you may need to work and put some effort in getting google work. ( no google framework or playstore).
Do check properly and get some hands on rather ordering online or checking a dummy handset.

Yep. I know about phones in china, no phones are locked in china, unless sold from dedicated carriers, but some carriers request a dedicated sim slot for there sim, but from the information in huawei's site, both slots is opened to all network, but one will be locked to 2G, if the other is using 3G or 4G.
and yes, play store is not available in china, it needs to be modded into the phone, some will work, whiles some don't, I'll just have to try, otherwise I will just have to side upload apk.

and yes, play store is not available in china, it needs to be modded into the phone, some will work, whiles some don't, I'll just have to try, otherwise I will just have to side upload apk.
Thanks

It is CyanogenOs 12.1,not Oxygen Os.And please get a better carrier/network provider.
Also,to answer your question,no,it is not normal for that drain to happen that much.Consider moving to another rom if that drain increases.

May I ask: what do you mean about the carrier? What made you have insight into my carrier? I don't see my carrier showing

I have eyes.I can see the faded out network signal indicator.That effects your mobile standby drain by a great amount.

Oh right. That last picture
Thank you for that. Oddly enough though - I downloaded an app for monitoring the signal since I was surprised by the lack of signal illustrated by the status bar icon. And it seems that the icon is wrong (?).
Here:
what are your thought on this? Could this just be a big in software of the CyanogenOS?
Thank you
Showing no/very-low signal:

I beg to differ.If there's anything wrong,it's your network provider and that app showing that you've better signal.

Hi again.
I downloaded another app. While the notification cell symbol look "empty" (at times), both apps report Good Signal (at around 88 db).
So I am inclined to believe it's the status bar symbol/ icon which is off.
You still don't agree?
Very curious about this.
Thank you

Thank you once again!
You are very helpful. I do appreciate that.
Since you want me to flash to a new ROM, can I flash to LineageOS 7.1?
If I am going to change ROM, I would prefer going with something more up to date. Unless you think otherwise.
Thanks!

May I ask: why don't you like this rom (CyanogenOS)? Why do you suspect it to be the culprit in the cellular signal?

Why do you think I hate Cos? Lmao,I was using cos12.1+xperia ui a few days ago.
As per about the cellular signal,you might be using an outdated cos12.1,not the last stable one.When I migrated to Cos12.1(last stable version),I didn't had any kind of issues like you're facing with cos12.1.So,it is unlikely that it is a bug.Anyhow,I'll recommend you to use LineageOs,as it is updated regularly.
Hello, and apologies if this is the wrong section or topic etc beforehand.
Ok, my dilemma began after going on holiday and the s6 got splashed by sea water. The only help I got was a tub of rice from my Turkish compatriots. by the next day it was charging and working perfectly, but I had lost service and wifi.
when I returned home I did all the troubleshoots, mess around with network settings, and then the recovery settings delete cache, and in the end, the factory reset to no avail.
so my next step was to order 99.9% alcohol and give everything a soak and good clean, there was some minor corrosion under the hood, but this device has never been opened from new and everything looked like new, so hardly anything going on that looked damaged whatsoever. After piecing it all back together and switching the device back on, I'm still exactly the same everything working perfectly but no network or wifi?
I have exhausted all ideas and avenues and I'm now wondering if flashing the firmware or trying to downgrade might solve it in any way, the problem is I haven't flashed a device since my nexus 5 original.
It is currently factory reset to 7.0
Build:920FXXU6ERC9
Baseband:920FXXU6ERC2
Any ideas or help to get this back up and running would be amazing and appreciated greatly.
Im stuck,
Many thanks in advance

I already cleaned it all, connections the lot, motherboard,
not sure which bit IC is? but I pretty much cleaned it all over, I might strip it down and again tomorrow and target the wifi area again......
I'm seriously out of ideas, but everything else is working flawlessly

Am I replacing it or just cleaning it? and does this antenna act for both wifi and network signal, as its both connections that are failing, infact I think bluetooth is also a culprit, basically anything that uses frequency.
Many thanks for your solo efforts in supporting my issues,:good:

only other option is I have an s6 motherboard on eBay at 29.99, I know for certain everything else is fine LCD and other connections in my current device, would swapping my board to a used but tested from a trusted seller solve the wifi, network carrier and Bluetooth issues?
id basically be swapping a board with potential issues for one without, and just attaching my LCD and daughterboard over
