your warranty doesn't cover this, but you can take it to a sony repair center, and they can fix it

if you take it to some other place or if you repair it yourself, your warranty will be voided

i asked customer service and he told me, there is just only one sony repair facility, and it is in Bloomington, Indiana. i should sent my phone to indiana, and maybe they can repair it for $185 or not and i have to pay $25 for the evaluation....

yeah it's a shame here in the US that there's only one service center, if I were you I would do it myself but $185 can buy you 2 Xperia Ion with AT&T

you are right... why do they have just one repair center? for that huge country? i doesn't make sense... i have to try to do it myself... it costs just $39 and some scary hours that i ruin it more... the video is not about my modell, that is an older one , on my phone the menu button and the back button are not really buttons, they are the part of the touch screen. Is it any difference inside the phone or how do i need to replace the screen?

is any difference in the hardware between sk 17a and sk17i? And one of the videos says that the glass and the lcd can be separeted, the other videos says that they are glued together... which one is right?

Re: screen

Uliwooly — Thu, 05 Jul 2012 17:58:12 GMT

SK17i it's the same as the SK17a the only difference is the 3G frequencies they work, you can use either or software/firmware w/o affecting anything at all, as the 3G frequencies its based on its antenna not software

Re: screen
