Screen Dead after 30sec in 10cm Water

Hello after I tried to do some pool photo shots, my screen flickered and died and now it stays black. The phone is still working, at least I can boot it and shoot photos. Sony Service Center in Bangkok denies to accept my phone because I bought it in US, even I agreed to cover the repair costs. Any Idea how I can convince Sony to accept my case. No one in Pantip wants to repair Sony phones either. sad situation imho ..and very unfriendly customer service on Sony side

Sorry to hear this but you need to either return your device to the place of purchase or contact Xperia care http://www.sonymobile.com/global-en/support/contact-us/

  • Is my iPad 2 screen dead, or is it worse than that?

    My iPad 2 has suddenly stopped responding. I had put it to sleep by closing the cover, and when I opened it, the screen was black. There have been no drops or other obvious mistreatment.
    So I held down the power button, ostensibly to shut it down. No response. Held down the button again, ostensibly to start it up: no response. Tried that many times with same result. Charged the iPad overnight. Still no response (and no little chime sound that usually happens when I plug in to AC power).
    iTunes can see the iPad, so maybe the screen is dead. But with the absence of all responses of any kind, I'm wondering whether it's worse than that.
    I'm running iOS 7.0.4, so I suppose I could update to 7.0.6 and see if that helps, but since updates can be dodgy, I thought I'd save that as a last resort. (And yes, my AppleCare coverage is history.)
    Any thoughts?

    Ralph Landry1      Maryland Re: Is my iPad 2 screen dead, or is it worse than that? Apr 14, 2014 6:11 PM (in response to gyandev) Placing your iPad in recovery mode erases all content and settings, why you would do that in your case is a total mystery.  You lose everything doing that.
    There are alot of problems that could have caused you to have to do this. And no you do not loose everything is you have made regular backups.
    Here are some reasons
    1) itunes makes a new update for your device, there system is so overloaded with people downloading it that some people who downloaded it our missing packets of information this causes an incorect installation and leads to many pieces of hardware malfunctioning
    2)usb conection will sometimes turn on and off during some updates, the program itunes dosent seem to check to make sure all the information went through to complete the installation
    when either 1 or 2 occurs it is typically in my expereice that a traditional plug it into itunes and do a recovery will not work, you need to bypass several glitchs the IOS update has caused, which may appear to be hard ware glichs IE battery, screen or even after every attempt the update will just stop.
    Their are several key components that make up electronic devices
    Ram and catch, they require power or electricty to store data, you either need to drain or remove the battery (sometimes residual charge is left in electronic devices... or you may be able to by pass it or in some situations cause the device to ignore the miss writen data.
    The battery may say bad on a basic diagnostic test that apple does, but in fact its perfectly fine.
    another piece is the storage media, flash and rotaional drives do not need power to store information only to read/write. Individual sectors will go bad over time, and sometimes falsh data that wasn't caught before this point will be written here.
    some batters actually have memory,, HDD and storage media and cpu's all have catch which may need to be wiped clean to make a device functioning the method for doing this is differnt for every piece of hardware and sometimes you do not need to take it apart to do it.
    There is also ram, which again needs power to store data and will also make bad sectors over time..
    if there your device is fully functioning but seems to be a bit slower/ not as good than when you first recieved it, you may need to consider a complete reset. You might notice when your done that the ram size is different that the storage drive has decreased, those are some of the bad sectors that the computer with its long use produced.
    In most cases where there is some type of glich that cannot be solved simply by plugin it into Itunes, you might just need to do this. There are several methods posted, and i have tried them all, and most of the time when i needed them they do not work... I had to think, about this..
    I needed to do a full recovery, itunes will crash half way through/ will not do the recovery, i need to provide power while placing the device in DFU mode(what i call a hard rest because its like hitting the master reset), because there is a problem/ glich when i try it pluged into a computer I need to use land power, than i need to conect it to itunes..
    IT always works, the other methods do not account for the multitude of malfunctions an operating system can cause. This helps to ignore any catch problems, when you conect to itunes it will finish it without a hitch. than you can place all your apps, photos songs ect back in there.
    I have had to do this for my own IOS device as well as several others. I typically do this even for random people or i tell them how to do this. Most of them come to me after being poorly disapointed with what the apple tech said.. for me its like if i took my car in for inspection and they said we had to replace the head piston, headmanifold ect, when whats wrong is just a loose wire...
    This method should be done prior to doing any expensive fix's as some of the problems you have "fixed" where never really there..
    when i was 8 my farther gave me a SCSi hdd that the technitions at his work couldnt fix/ get to work.. He though i would take it apart and see how it worked.. I read the manual, and power scematic, and i came up with my own fix.. plug a jumper into the - and the + jumper to clear the catch while power was going through.. it worked I had a working scsi.. that thing was bigger than an airport extreme curently on the market. I have always had the ability to trouble shoot sense i was alittle boy... I have fixed garmiin GPS as well i wish they still had the physical power switch and not the analog (it was so much easer to reboot them... I was an aircraft maintainer, i have fixed several other computer problems network issuse, hard ware and so on.. Although i have never taken classes in any of it i have learned on my own, and i understand how the device work rather than being told steps to fix it I can find solution where others cannot because i know how they work.. I think that is better than any colledge grad with no reall world experience in true problem solving.

  • Bluetooth-dead after coming out of sleep-have to shutdown/back on with switch-then all is normal again-help please

    Intel iMac-bluetooth seems dead after sleep.  Screen will come on after pushing power button, but wireless keyboard, trackpad, and mouse are dead.  Shutdown using power button, push again to turn back on and all is back to normal...any idea what is going on?

    There's a long thread here about this problem (and I think I've seen several others):
    https://discussions.apple.com/thread/2223188?start=345&tstart=0
    Seemed to start as a Snow Leopard issue but seems to have morphed into a Lion problem for some.
    I have experienced the problem myself since updating to Lion, although only a couple of times. My workround is to set computer sleep to 'never'. Hoping that 10.7.2 will address the problem whenever it is released.

  • Left USB-Port dead after wake from sleep. Just restart helps.

    I hoped Apples keyboard-Update today would solve my biggest hate-bug in this buggy POS called Leopard. It didn't.
    As usual on my Leopard-Macbook Pro, no device will work on the left USB-Port after I waked the computer from sleep. Just a restart helps. I hoped this update to solve this, because it replaced among others "IOUSBFamily.kext".
    Terminal gives a timeout error for the internal USB-Hub after wake from sleep. I assumed this should be related.
    I'm really angry now.
    When will Apple solve the most urgent problems in Leopard?
    Was 10.5.1 just smoke and mirrors to make (fool people into...) people upgrade who intended to wait until the first maintenance-update?
    Was Leopard Apples attempt to make Windows-Users more comfortable by putting in some heavy extra-bugs and blue screens?
    FIX IT FINALLY! And f... don't wait for Macworld to release 10.5.2. It's desperately needed and the current state of Leopard will leave some people very sad at christmas after getting their first Mac. First impression counts and many more peoples first contact with the Mac will be at christmas...

    Apple knows the problem and for some reason they are stumped on fixing it. this is so bad I can't believe it. On my macbook pro with Leopard installed, USB left port is dead after sleep. Only restarting can power it back up. I have to restart every day to use my external hard drive for time machine or when putting my flash drive in the port.
    Come on already Apple. This is a SERIOUS, SERIOUS problem.
    Fix it.

  • My iPod Nano is ,,dead" after formatting it

    Hi. I've got a big problem
    I bought an iPod Nano 2GB yesterday and i had problems with updating it, so I've formatted it (not restored- formatted using the right click in My Computer and ,,Format") And still the software didn't want to install... So I've restarted computer and unplugged iPod.
    And now, it doesn's want to turn on (I think, that battery's full, beacuse I've charged it about an hour earlier). Maybe it's the fault of format? I've plugged an iPold and nothing happens... it's dead... ;(

  • T61p dead after BIOS flash

    Hi all.
    I own a T61p (Type: 8891-CTO) which had its mother board recently replaced due to the well known GPU error.
    Now today I updated the BIOS with the latest available under Windows XP. After the reboot the laptop showed the "Lenovo Thinkpad" screen. After a few seconds the fan started running on it's maximum setting but otherwise nothing happened.
    I tried to turn off the laptop using the On/Off key but to no avail. I ended shutting the laptop down by undocking it from the dock and pulling the battery pack.
    Now, the laptop won't turn on again. Pressing the On/Off key are not giving any reaction. Also, when putting the laptop back into the dock or applying the power supply the small indicator LED with the plug does not turn on.
    So, I'm now in the unfortunate situation of possesing a completely dead T61p.
    What can I do now? Is it possible to revert the BIOS update by Lenovo support, or is there another way short of swapping the main board or buying an entirely new laptop?

    @benwon:
    I have actually tried to contact Lenovo support on this matter, but since my warranty ran out in January they couldn't really help.
    The support person I spoke to sounded rather pessimistic about this matter. He denied the option of restoring the BIOS by "hard flashing" it right away and suggested a planar replacement. The probable cost for this small operation would be as high as buying a brand new laptop.
    Since buying a replacement planar on the net and replacing it myself is way cheaper than a new laptop this is what I will do. If I get lucky and can get the BIOS of my dead planar "restored" and thus getting it working again (assuming that the errored BIOS hasn't destroyed any of the hardware) I can still use it as a replacement part or for a secondary PC.

  • Satellite U400-22n and Win7 - screen hangs after 5 min

    Hi, This is my first post
    Ive purchased a new U400 with Vista preinstalled, last week ; 2 days ago Ive upgraded to windows 7 32bit professional when I stared Installing it windows prompted me that it requires a full installation , so I done a normal full install, windows 7 installed normally .
    Now my screen hangs after 5 min and windows gos black and reboots after 3-5 min, Ive downloaded all the drivers from the Toshiba site Ive used the auto detect, and installed the drivers one by one and tested if the reboot stops , Ive reinstalled windows now 4-5 time returned my copy to the shop and got a new copy of the windows DVD, its the same,
    Please has some one any advice for me. As the shop Ive perched this from will not upgrade to windows 7 for me.

    hi Mather,
    any bluescreens visible?
    win7 32bit i guess...
    you have to install all the drivers for win7 provided by toshiba in the right order!
    first chipset and patchfiles if available...
    i think a clean install will do the job!
    make sure that the hdd is error free!
    you can upgrade from vista 32bit to win7 32bit
    but no chance to upgrade to a win7 64bit when a vista 32bit is installed...

  • Satellite L670 - Hard Disk Dead after 8 months only

    Hi,
    this morning I had to retunr my laptop due to bad hard disk problem. After 8 months, it's dead already.
    The positive points are: I am still under warranty and second the toshiba software hilighted me on time, allowing me to back up my data before the crash. Tks Toshiba for this tool, very usefull.
    The question is, how can a hard disk die that quick after just fews months ?
    Bad luck or bad use ? I am wondering.
    I wish to have a feedback from those who owns same model, L670 (windows 7), to understand if this problem is commun or if I was unluckily concerned.
    Also, if there are possible solutions to avoid HD stress in the daily use ? Like for example, reduce writing on it (back up of blu-ray using AnyDvD HD ON hd, then cut&paste to external HD), or to not connect too often external hard disk to avoid electricity surcharge if any ?
    In future, will I have to perform chkdsk more often ? Defrag ? If yes, at which frequency ?
    This is my 3rd laptop dying, Sony VAIO = mothercard dead after 1.2 years, Fujitsu Amilo xi = explosed after 3 years, and now Toshiba HD after 8 months.
    From 900EUR up to 1600EUR, I do not see a significative resistance of one of those models, Sony was the badest ever in terms of video card longevity and compatibility (games unplayable after 2 months, no driver update), keyboard "painting" was a mess with deterioration after fews months compared to Fujitsu and Toshiba (no pb). Toshiba L670 more recent, was the best in terms of game compatibility.
    What to do ? Stop buying laptop or use it only fews hours a day with a PC on top ?
    For time beeing I can't afford to have a PC + a laptop as I am unemployed, surviving with 10EUR/day,
    time to find a job again.
    Despite this situation, I managed to buy new Zelman notebook cooler for my Toshiba at around 40/50EUR, but, it didn't help apparently.
    Tks for feedback about L670 duration life, and particulary HD problem + best use to protect it.
    Guillaume

    You're not the only one.
    I bought an L670 in September last year. It was strictly for home use as replacement for a desktop PC, so it was never moved.
    Just after a few weeks things started to go wrong: boot fails, programs crashing, Windows 7 crashing...
    It's almost 7 months now since purchase and I'm writing this message on the very same notebook with 'Hard Disk Sentinel' running in the background, reporting more bad sectors every day. It tells me that hard disk health is now down to only 9% and that it has an estimated 14 days to live.
    Since the notebook is technically still running fine, I don't think I can have the HDD replaced under warranty or am I wrong? Does the HDD have to cease working alltogether before I can have it replaced under warranty?

  • Mid-2010 battery dead after 629 cycles?!?

    Hi,
    My mid-2010 Macbook Pro 15" battery is seemingly dead after only 629 cycles. It says that the condition is "replace now" and the green indicator lights flash when I press the button on the side. It was working fine, and then I didn't use the computer for a little while, and now the battery doesn't charge and it has to be plugged in.
    I'm hesitant to think the battery has just failed, because like I mentioned, there are only 629 cycles on it, and it was working prefectly before, and it seems very sudden.
    Any help/thoughts/suggestions are appreciated!
    Thanks!

    Make an appointment at the genius bar.  Have you fully discharged and recharge fully over the battery's 2 yr life?  This is good to do a few times a year.

  • My MacBook Pro will turn on and get to the login screen. After I login though it goes to a white screen.

    My MacBook Pro will turn on and get to the login screen. After I login though it goes to a white screen.

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
    Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a Fusion Drive or a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually login automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
    After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

    OK. If you believe that.
    When the disk is starting to die it can be bad for a moment and then be good for a while. If there was no problem while you were checking it of course it shows up good.
    I tell you those are the signs of a disk that is about to die.
