Flash bleed through the phone's camera Z1s

I have had this phone for less than 6 months and it has been one problem after the other. The last straw was the flash issue on the camera. Every time I or my wife would take a picture the phone would either freeze and I would have to restart it, or the more permanent problem which is the bleeding through the flashin enclosure to the camera which causes a haze at the bottom of the picture. This phone has been replaced twice and to no avail and Sony is refusing to admit that there is a problem!!!!! I didn't want to pay $600 for a phone this cheaply made...if I wanted that I would have gone to LG or Pantech....

  • My iphone 4s is dictatating everything. I can no longer scroll through the phone. I have to double click all icons How do I turn this off?

    My iphone 4s is dictating everything. I can't scroll through the phone. I have to double click on everything. How do I turn this off?

    With Voice Over, you highlight whatever you are trying to select and then double tap anywhere on the screen to select.
    So for your password of 1234 you have to
    "Highlight 1, then double tap the screen, Highlight 2, the double tap the screen,... etc."
    In order to remove you have 2 options:
    Option# 1 – Turn off Voice Over
    Go to setting by, highlight "SETTING
    Double tap screen to go into settings
    Use 3 fingers to (swipe) scroll of down and highlight "GENERAL"
    Double tap screen to go into general
    Use 3 fingers to (swipe) scroll of down and then highlight “ACCESSIBILITY”
    Double tap screen to go into accessibility
    Once you are in make sure that EVERYTHING in that section are shown as “OFF”
    Option #2 - Reset your Phone
    Go to setting by, highlight "SETTING
    Double tap screen to go into settings
    Use 3 fingers to (swipe) scroll of down and highlight "GENERAL"
    Double tap screen to go into general
    Use 3 fingers to (swipe) scroll of down and then highlight “RESET”
    Double tap screen to go into reset
    Select “Reset all setting” and continue to follow the instruction
    (When you reset, all of your data and music WILL NOT erase. So don’t worry about that)
    Hope this helps.

    Im having problem setting up my Hotmail account, it used to work fine until few days ago. It says ive entered an incorrect username or password which i can sign in fine with them details if i use laptop or safari through the phone, Please help..

    I Sugges you to log into your hotmail acc and go to security and password change bit, then you will see two-step verification.. turn that off and you will be able to set it up on your iPhone/iPad or even Mac.
    Give your phone a restart before trying to set it up. Thanks

  • When I purchased my iphone and ipad last week they told me I would connect the ipad to the internet through the phone but can get niether the phone nor the ipad to see the internet?

    When I purchased my iphone and ipad last week they told me I would connect the ipad to the internet through the phone but can get niether the phone nor the ipad to see the internet?

    Connecting the iPad to the internet via the iPhone is done by setting up a personal HotSpot, but you have to have that supported by your carrier and have to have established the account to do so.
    On the  iPhone, Settings > General > Network > Set Up Personal Hotspot

  • Strange email problem; it started only loading unread emails, but from 3 months ago. It is now loading new emails too, but no emails in the past month, read or unread. It's gmail, set up through the phone, I've restarted restored

    Strange email problem; it started only loading unread emails, but from 3 months ago. It is now loading new emails too, but no emails in the past month, read or unread. It's gmail, set up through the phone, I've restarted restored and updated firmware, deleted the account, anything I could think of, but it's just not accurately downloading the most recent emails.

    The answer is very simple: You were not the original owner of the phone. Target sold you a phone that had been returned. You can verify the date of the original sale here: Apple - Support - Check Your Service and Support Coverage. I suspect you will find that the warranty expiration date is not one year from the date that you bought it.

  • I recently downloaded the 5.1.1 and all of a sudden the contact icon has disappeared. I can still access my contact list through the phone icon, but I want the contact icon back. How can I reinstall it?

    I recently downloaded the 5.1.1 and all of a sudden the contact icon has disappeared. I can still access my contact list through the phone icon, but I want the contact icon back. How can I reinstall it?

    You can't delete it.  Look on all your screens and inside all your folders.  If you still can't find it go to Settings>General>Reset>Reset Home Screen Layout.  This will restore the home screen to its original configuration but may move other apps around to do so.

        backpack12,
    Voicemails are a vital part of having a working phone. We do suggest that you look at the contact and then the number to make sure that it is *86. If you are needing to get your voicemails until then, please dial *86.

  • Why are my masked layers bleeding through the background layer?

    Hi All,
    I'm working on a composite images using multipal layers and masks to create a collage. For some reason, I'm getting unwanted parts of layered images bleeding through  the background layer.
    I've trying using inverted masks which stop the 'bleed' but then I am unable to see it under the transparent background layer to edit it. Clipping mask doesn't seem to be helping either.
    I've done this sort of thing many times and have not had this happen. I seem to have forgotten a step. I'm using Photoshop CC, btw.
    What am I doing wrong? Ideas?
    Thanks!

    Good day!
    Could you please post a screenshot with the Layers Panel visible?
    Are you sure you paint with black and white?
    When you view the Layer Mask by alt-clocking its icon in the Layers Panel and measure the area that is to be hidden is it truly 100% black?
    (Resetting fore- and background colour by hitting the key D can also be helpful.)

  • My iPad has red bleeding through the screen.

    My iPad has red bleeding through the screen. The background is solid red behind everything on the page. What causes this?
    Is there a fix for this?

    On a different thread, someone suggested dropping the iPad on its back onto a carpeted floor. I did this from about two feet high with no effect. Then tried from about 3.5 feet high, and VOILA the red disappeared! Many others reported same miraculous fix. Hope it works for you!

  • My ipod app on my iphone 4 will not let me listen to music through the headphones it came with.

    It is quite annoying. I plug in my headphones that came with the phone into the jack and I can hear the instrumental music just fine but the voices sound like they are very far away. I have had my phone for two months and it has been doing it since I got the phone. I tried different headphones thinking that was the issue but it wasn't. I like working out and I have had zero motivation lately b/c I can't get the stupid headphones to work on the phone! I have tried EVERYTHING. If anyone has had similar issues please please let me know what you did to correct it. Thanks.

  • Does push ONLY work through the phone network? 2G & 3G?

    I have an iPhone with EDGE.
    Can contacts and such be pushed to my phone through my local computer network (WiFi)? Or must I ping the phone network by dialing out or otherwise do a cradle sync?

    I have a Gen 1 iphone and Mobileme and push works equally well on my home Wi-Fi network as on the Edge network.
    There is no need to attach the iphone to the computer at all for contacts or calendars using push.

  • Any way to price match something online without going through the phone system shuffle?

    I ask because right now Amazon has the original Star Trek series 3 season boxset on Blu-Ray for $59.99 on sale. It's $135.99 on the BestBuy.com website.
    I already asked in store if they could order it from the website and then do some sort of match that way while ordering it. But apparently that isn't possible.
    The page for the product on Amazon is HERE: {removed per forum guidelines}
    As you can see the price is clearly marked $59.99 at the moment. 
    I just know what kind of a phone system menu dance I had to go through the one other time I tried getting something matched from an online price for something that wasn't available in store for pickup. It took no less than 5-6 reps, getting hung up on 3-4x and having to re-explain what I wanted multiple times to those multiple reps before it finally got processed.
    Anyway, any ideas on how to do this in an online form without requiring doing the phone system shuffle for 2 hours?

    Good morning CheapestGamer,
    Thank you for posting your question to the forum!
    As RealGeorgeW mentioned, you would need to call into 1-888-BestBuy (1-888-237-8289) to request a price match when a BestBuy.com order is involved.  Depending on the time of the day or year, there could possibly be a slightly longer than normal hold time when calling in; however, it should not take two hours to reach the correct department and make a price match request.  If it ever feels like you are having a difficult time while trying to request a price match, please feel free to post to the forum and we will see what we can do to help.

    I hope you have a great day.

  • My i phone 4 is dead after i tried to update the operating system to io6 through the phone while it is connected to WI FI, Please advise, i have no Back up

    Hello
    I had IOS5.1.1 on my iphone 4.
    i connect my phone to WI FI to upgrade to IOS 6.
    while downloading the 599 Mb, i notice that battery is 39%
    i connect the phone to USB charger connected to PC, and it shows that charge going on.
    after downloading the 599 MBs, it started the long restart.
    after, it start the short restart, then (Please connect to I tunes) appears on the screen.
    this was strang message, since i did the same upgrade to other devices, and it shouldn't ask for this.
    i thought may be because the device is connected to Pc, so, i um plug it from the Pc, but it keeps asking to connect to i Tunes.
    i switch it off, and on, and again it asked to connect the iphone to I Tunes.
    i open the I tunes and connect the phone to the PC.
    then i got this message on i tunes: Error happened, please click Ok to restore.
    I clicked Ok and it took me to this link:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1275
    and i do not know what to do, i did restart PC, and reconnect, but nothing new.
    the Iphone just showing the APPLE sign only since that time.
    friend adviced to wait untill the battery is empty and them charge the device.
    i did, but still the same.
    all what i care about are my pictures, i had no back up, and it is my honeymoon photos.
    could any one help ????!!!!!
    the device now is just showing apple sign, even when it is connected to I Tunes, it dosent appear.
