All versions have same physical dimensions so u dnt have to worry about them not fitting.. U can buy any version..of z3 back plate..
Thanks unmaskedfalesh for replying
Will I lose my warranty if I replace it my self or let some replace it for me ?
And the water resistance, will it be gone ?
I also found items that come with NFC chip which is more expensive, If my NFC is working now with the broken glass will I lose it with the replace of the broken glass with new one that doesn't come with NFC chip?
Since they refused to fix it under warranty, at this point I would assume it is void (physical damage) so it does not matter where you get it done.

As far as i know the nfc chip is glued to the back plate so u can easily..take it out and stick to ur new back plate...
Yes warranty is void..and also as another member quoted they refused to repair so u dnt have to bother about warranty being void..imo
If u stick the cover properly u will retain ur water resistant feature dont worry..the cover comes with glue..band that u have to stick very carefully... If u need a tutorial there is one on youtube feel free to ask the link if u cannot find out..
U can check the video and make up ur mind whether u can do it or get it done on a repair shop!!!
Gud luck
Check out this thread:

A few people have already replaced the back on their Xperia Z3 and posted the results, part used and method of completing the repair. If you do complete the repair yourself, take some pictures and share your story in that thread.

No such replacements that I know of, physical damage is never covered under warranty. As they are already quoting a price for that, you don't have any choice. In the beginnin, they might replace phones due to no parts availability but I highly doubt that is going to happen here. You can try calling other service centers though i highly doubt they would do anything about it.

thans for the reply ... am trying to seel it and buy a new one
Does sony repair front screens cracks? My back camera is not working either for some reason.... the crack is only on the front, back looks normal.
I have the Dual Sim version.. and live in the US.
How much does sony charge? I can't find any local shops that fix the z3 here.
Thanks.
How
Probably be anywhere between $150-250.
My G2 screen replacement was ~$240 at GopherMods when it was 3 months old in Dec 2013. Fixed for free as they messed up 3 times. You are better getting it fixed by Sony itself instead of some of these third party shops where they learn their job on your phone.
If you can do it yourself probably be around $100-150 for the LCD/digitizer assembly. If you want to replace just the glass/digitizer it would be a chore but be even less, not even Sony would do this as it's too much work.
At least $200 if you send it to Sony for repair, but it would cost much less if you want to repair it yourself.

You think they will guarantee it to be waterproof still if I send it in? Still IP68 certified?

The phone I got back from warranty is waterproof. (I sent it in because it wasn't waterproof, touchscreen stopped working after taking pictures underwater)

They should, or they would be at fault and liable to replace it again, unless they detected chlorine or salt residues. So basically if it fails in "fresh water" with flaps closed its not your fault.

Hello
Just replaced my z3 touch screen
Tested just before assemblying and apply glue ( the oem adhesive )
It was 100% functional
But after finishing all and booting up
A bar of screen not responding at all
See screenshot
That's a perfect rectangle... You should take it to service centre or repair...
And... What are you doing there, again?

I'd guess heating the glue to harden it.

Wait i explain it well ( excuse me for my bad english)
I dropped my phone 2 months ago
Went to a repair shop to change the screen ( LCD + Digitilizer ) ( total cost = + 200 USD ) ( fully functional )
They changed it but used some ordinary adhesive to stick the screen to the frame
After 2 days the screen began to come out of the frame
I googled and saw you need to use the "original adhesive for the z3
Bought it on ebay and got it yesterday
Opened my z3
Took the old glue off and installed the Adhesive i bought
Before i put the back cover i turned on the phone and checked everything - All was working even the touch was 100% functional
I put the back cover
And heated the adhesive to make it get its full power ( like stated on videos )
After that i turned on the phone
All is working except that bar on the screen ( it displays but it dont respond to touch , it dont even sense the touch in the service test !! )
I hope i have been clear enough
Thank you a lot for helping me
And also i dont have any more money to spend on this phone
I need to use it for at least 3 years before buying another one ( financial prblem)
What kind of adhesive did you use? I've got the same problem than you.
Try to buy a new lcd screen on ebay, you can find a non original one arround 40$.

Hi all my problem is i bought my Z3 off ebay it had a faulty screen. The screen is not displaying anything so i bought a new screen fitted it but its still the same so bought another thinking it was the part but its still the same. So i need some advice wether its the zif on the board thats faulty or the flex ribbon. the zif connector looks to be ok. And the back light still works and i can hear the boot sounds and notifacations. I just don't want to keep buying parts willy nilly
why did u buy two new screens? why didnt u take it to service center?

Because Sony service center is terrible I sent my z1 there in the past for screen flickering and they tried to charge me £315 to fix it. I have replaced the flex ribbon since and still the same no picture on the screen just cant see whats wrong with it
Dont waste your hard earned money. Buy some other brand phone
My Xperia z5's corner has been dent , I do have a warranty but I saw on a thread on sony care website on z3 forum that I need to replace the whole frame and this is very costly as am conserving money to buy Huawei watch so I can't buy it , so my question is will this affect my phone's waterproofing capability ? although my phone pass the pressure test but i need to make sure , and can i replace those corners by myself ? or i need to get my phone to the sony customer care ? will this void my warranty ?
