Hello, I bought a second hand xperia z5 for my dad but it has one problem: the nfc doesn't work.
I also got the src42 cover and it can't pair with it now since it uses nfc.
The diagnostics test in the settings of the phone say the nfc works.
I have tried a factory reset and a software repair with the xperia companion software but no luck.
Restarted the phone, switched nfc on and off multiple times, tried 5 different nfc devices, tried switching Bluetooth on and off all no luck either.
Any suggestions of what I can do?, am I looking at a hardware problem?
I can order a new nfc chip for 6,40, but I don't like to break open the phone
It appears the phone has a back protector of what appears to be tempered glass, it's about just as thick as a regular tempered glass for your screen.
Can this protector really be that strong that it is blocking the nfc from making a connection?

Hello. I don't know if it is working or not working. Or if it should work actually in that way but...
Here's the thing. I bought this case - http://www.ebay.com/itm/Genuine-Lea...hash=item3f51037847:m:mx72xhE-EjvIAifVs0AYS-w
And I previously had a LG G3, which I sold, got this beauty of a phone. I had the Circle view case for G3 and when it was put on, when I opened the cover, the phone automatically unlocked and turned on. But that doesn't happen on my Z3. Is it due to some sensors or due to to a bad case? Something with magnets in the case or the phone itself. It would be fine, if a sensor would detect wether there is a cover on the screen or not. But it does simply nothing, I have to unlock the phone by myself to wake it up. Or there are no such features on Sony phones?
Thanks in advance.

Two weeks ago I broke the nexus glass. When I saw some pieces of circuits on the right corner of the glass, I decided to simply putting some attack on the glass in order to use the phone for some more months. Yesterday data connection stopped working without any reason. SMS and calls are still working . Do you think can be Vodafone fault ? I tried the network resetting in the settings without success .
HI everyone
I have a problem with my z5 dual e6633
When I put a screen protector the touchscreen act wierd and I cant use its like its to sensitive, I dont know whats the problem I have tried a lot of screen Protectors when its new its OK but after it gets some scratches it became hard to use the touchscreen and I have to remove it
Have any one experienced any of this?or im the only one who have this issue?
Tempered glass is working great on my z5 dual, tempered glass tend to have a better scratch resisitance and might solve your problem.

Try turning on or off the glove mode in display settings maybe this can help.
Hello, I've had this issue for about 3 months now. Insurance company wont help and phone repairs cost a lot.
Let me introduce you to the problem, my honor 8 thinks that I have one of those flip cases with a magnet on. It only shows the upper center of the screen.
There are no magnets on it/close and it doesn't matter if I do a hard reset or how I bot it.
I have no touch while it's in its frozen state.
I can't update it either because the package always fails and at this point I've tried everything to fix it, even bought a flip case to see if it will fix it...
Here's a related thread I found, but this was with a magnet close: https://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-8/help/honor-8-screen-freezes-phone-magnet-t3702651
And here is a screenshot: https://scontent-mxp1-1.xx.fbcdn.ne...=fbeeb02448cf1ac26c1726a1cbff1bb0&oe=5B607A49
In the last two months or so I cracked my screen with the shatter/cracking starting in the upper right-hand corner of the phone. I still have not found a suitable solution for fixing the screen, I was hoping to get a solution to an issue this seems to have created where the display will not turn on.
Simply put, the screen no longer turns on unless initiated by the software with activities like "Hey Google", receiving a text/call, or plugging/unplugging the phone. The majority of the time I cannot get the phone to turn on with normal methods such as media gestures (double tap), any buttons (volume/power), fingerprint sensor are all unable to turn on the screen. Strangely, many times I will receive haptic feedback that senses the physical method I am using but the screen still fails to turn on. Squeezing the phone also doesn't work but is not desired any more as a concern for making the cracking worse.
It's a US phone, rooted, 1.30.617.2 with Magisk and Xposed. I have tried a variety of possible methods with no success including gravitybox hardware tweaks, Cleanslate kernel options, and a variety of stock options that were all unsuccessful.
My best guess is that the cracking on the screen starts in the upper right-hand corner where the proximity sensor is. It is completely shattered there and I have a clear screen protector as well. Is it possible that the proximity sensor is causing this? If so, any suggestions to disable it somehow. If not, do you think it is a damaged product or something else?
With the difficulty of getting and swapping the cracked screen, I am hoping someone can help. THANK YOU!!!
I recently just swapped the screen on mine and it was a bit of a challenge but not too difficult that I wouldn't do it again, for someone else. LOL. Anyway it might be possible to disconnect the prox sensor simply by removing the back cover and a few screws at the top of the device. Not 100 percent sure it will still work or what reaction you might get by disconnecting it, but if you're not going to replace the screen it could be worth a try. I found a couple of sellers on Ebay shortly after Christmas and considering what the phone cost, to me it was worth it to replace the screen but maybe not twice, thus my little joke earlier. There are tare down videos on YouTube if you need that kind of help.
Just checking in to see how things were going and if you tried anything? When my screen cracked I put a tempered glass screen protector on it to prevent any further damage and to prevent finger damage from the small shards that develop in the cracks. I had another phone I used tape on to pull the shards out and it ended up ruining the digitizer so this time I just covered everything up and moved on best I could. Looks like the seller I got my replacement still has some if you're thinking about replacing yours. It says New Condition but mine had definitely come from some device but whom ever removed it did an excellent job because it arrived very clean and ready to install. Getting the old screen off was the hardest part, well and finding the right adhesive to glue it back on. I wasn't able to find the G7000 glue but used F6000 which I found easily. I haven't had any issues with it since. If you want to know more about how I did it check out my thread in this forum. Here's the link to the seller.
