You said "washed the phone in warm water", that doesn't suggest you only spilled a bit on it. If I drop my phone in a sink full of water, in the toilet or puddle and water gets in then I would have every right to complain, but I do find it hard to have sympathy for People who have "tested" the water proof capabilities.

If I buy a parachute I buy it not because it is nice looking or cool ... I buy it because I expect it to keep me alive after I jump from an airplane ...

If I jump from an airplane and my parachute will not open but I'm barely alive because I was cautions enough to have a spare one, then I have all the rights in the world to complain ... right?

The phone has IP58 certification, dust- and waterproof ... so it MUST sustain water on it, submerging totally in water, heavy rain or simply tap water. That why it had that certification in the first place.

Look at the OFFICIAL commercial: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9j_fJeTtuz0
[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SXUsr:
I feel your pain, I do, however...

That to me suggests you had a bowl/sink of warm water and washed it like a plate or something, if the Phone has flexed then in may have sucked it in, who knows. I think too many People put too much emphasis on "water proof" and get burnt in the process.
[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ro_explorer:
It was tap water ... warm, not hot, not cold .. room temperature ... not jet, spray mode. it was like a heavy rain if you want to associate the physical "impact".

No bending, not rubbing ...

God damn it ... I'm an engineer .. I know how to handle this crap :).

Your right.

My underwater camerahousing is Waterproof too, but only if i care about the cleaning/maintain rituals, they make the housing waterproof.

Same with the Parachute, yes it can save your life when you jump from the Plane, but only if you pack it right, maintain it and ensure that all ropes and the chute self are under good condition.

The phone was barely 1 month old. The seals were greased with silicone vaseline from day 1. I used a magnetic charger connector all the time.

More than that, I'm pretty sure the water did not got inside on the flaps but more through the ear piece. We'll see what the guys from the service will say. I'm very curious.

hi im having so trouble just like you i guess. My phone hasn't damage but i notice that the back cover started to lift and i think this could be the reason of the damage to your phone too. i will add some photos (taken with an iphone 4s so don't be harsh on them :p )

Pls post the answer from the service. In the Tablet Z section i have read a case, where no problems accrued. (they changed the Tablet)
[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ro_explorer:
Back with some feedback. Today I received an email from the service company. They basically are acknowledging the defect and they said they are replacing all the defective parts and soon will be sending back the phone. I'm curious to see when that will be :)

[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theprince1991:
Same situation with the XPERIA Z. The backplate was coming away from the casing. I think this happened because the processor became too warm for the adhesive and starting coming away from the casing. I never had water damage because of this but water could definitely have come in.

I have a Z1C now and I'm hoping this doesn't happen. You are WELL within your rights to complain, even if it was just to test it.
[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ro_explorer:
I got mine on contract, from Halebop Sweden so it is under local warranty.
[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ro_explorer:
Update:

Phone is back. it is the same phone - repaired.

They've changed the display assembly and a lot of other small accessories (probably damaged during dismantling the phone).

On the paper it is also stated that they tested the unit for water resistance (after being repaired) and it passed.

The screen is slightly misaligned but I will just close an eye on this.
[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jiayit:
There is also a slight gap between my plastic (back) frame and aluminium frame... You think Sony will get it fixed for me? I don't want anything to happen to my phone :(

I'm afraid they'll just say that it's 'normal'.
[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ro_explorer:
That's not "normal" so you should go under warranty with the concern of water proofing. They will most likely change the adhesives on those parts. It is no biggie (or at least it shouldn't be). As long as they are stating that the device is ip57 or whatever standard that means water tight, that should be an aspect covered by warranty.

Post result after replacement. Tks.
[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] infinitylook:
Hi, did you already replaced the back? Was it easy and did you maintain waterproofing?
[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rekoil:
The waterproofing around the camera depends on the back cover sitting flush against the camera, if there is a gap anywhere there's likely a slight gap there as well. I had an issue with my first Z1C, unfortunately it was after I had flashed CyanogenMod hehe, but I sorted it out and got a brand new phone.

I've been considering the back replacement with glass myself, not only because it looks better, but because I feel it should stay waterproof better as well.
[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] uristic:
Back cover a bit lifted

Hi guys, I just want to share my experience with the "loose" back cover.

I bought the phone yesterday and I noticed the little gap between back cover and the frame (identical as the photos few posts back). It's not really a BIG gap and it doesn't bother me at all but I was concerned about the waterproofing so I went back to the operator and they took out few brand new phones and checked and it was the same on them. So they said it's stupid to change it as it would be totally the same and they just wrote a memo that I was there in case something happens. They also suggested sending the phone back if I want to so the service checks it but I really don't like the idea for waiting 2-3 weeks to get my brand new phone back so I just decided to keep it and see what happens and then send it back if it breaks as it was recorded I was there.. does anyone have the same "problem" and the water actually came in? If not it's not really a big deal :P
[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] infinitylook:
My back has also that very little gap between the back and the frame. Do far so good with Waterproofing. I always go on lake to swim. Just avoid seawater and you'll be fine
[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] uristic:
Yes, I have just called Sony Mobile Support and service for Slovenia and they said it's totally normal like this and it's just a cosmetic "issue" and most of the devices have the same as they even checked those that they had there. And even IF something happens to the phone Sony will cover it. No worries :)
[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sdam87:
update

yes i did replace it ... but i fu#@$ it up. Once you put the back cover do not remove as the adhesive can only be use once, i did try to remove it for something that i forgot XD and then put it back and right after i did it i also tested the phone in water and it went OK but after a few days the gap problem came back and even worse so i ordered a black cover some new adhesive and will do it again. hopefully this time i will do it right.

I used a hair dryer, a suction cup and some opening tools. The procedure was hard, but it is doable, just buy some extra adhesive and if you can buy an extra back frame

[HTC One S] asdfasdfvful:
Is this your first time flashing? Assuming you are s-on, please remember to flash boot.img afterwards. I have no idea why you are rebooting an ruu and firmware if you are going to a maximum (which is a custom Rom right?)

If you are flashing a Rom, also make sure that it is compatible with host 2.16.

You can find a lost of other HTC one s roms in the link in my signature
[HTC One S] 92Lucio92:
Ok maybe i know where you failed...before installing the firmware.zip via fastboot did you install the Maximus HD? You need to install it 2 times: one before the hboot upgrade (from 2.15 to 2.16) and one time after that.

If not you need to downgrade to 2.15, install Maximus HD via recovery, update again with firmware.zip, and install again Maximus HD.

Tell me if you need help with donwgrading.

I am in s-off as you can see in my details. i was rebooting RUU because i had a boot loop.

[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] muzz3256:
So I switched from Sprint to Verizon on Friday and I picked up the LG G2 after having decided on the HTC One. I'm loving the phone but the volume is really low, I can't hear the ringer half the time and I almost never hear my text message notifications. I've rooted and done the volume mod, but that really hasn't helped. I also installed an app from the market called the LG G2 Volume, but that only works for the headphones. When I had my GS3 I was able to flash an update that increased the speaker volume by 25, 50, 75, or 100%, but I've not seen anything like that for the G2. I really like this phone, but I work in a place that I have to be able to hear my phone, and I'm on call 8-10 nights a month, and have to be able to hear the phone ringing. Does anyone have any solutions?

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lokoid:
I've hit a brick wall on this and really need some help.

Last night I unlocked the bootloader on my HTC Desire HD.

I proceeded to the steps on Team Android page

Up to setp 10 everything was fine but when I went to RECOVERY, I just got a red exclamation.

ClockworkMod Recovery was not installed. I can't proceed with the JellyBean setup.

The phone cannot boot up as normal. I just get a blank screen. However, I can go into bootloader mode.

I tried a factory reset - no joy.

What should I do now? From hours of reading I've seen advice about flashing recovery and flashing rom. I don't have a recovery.img or a boot.img (other than the jellybean boot.img).

I don't want to mess this up any more. Would really appreciate any help I can get.

In Bootloader it says

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJeamy:
firstly you must download this TWRP recovery .img file..then turn on your phone into bootloader mode..then select FASTBOOT..then connecting your phone to pc until indicator in your phone is "FASTBOOT-USB" then copied the "openrecovery-twrp-2.6.3.0-ace.img" file to your adb folder..that are the same place as your adb.exe and fastboot.exe file on your pc...then open cmd from there..

and then typing "fastboot flash recovery openrecovery-twrp-2.6.3.0-ace.img" ..after that you can continued typing "fastboot reboot-bootloader" done...now you already had custom recovery on your phone..

now you can install/ flashing custom rom from the recovery but don't forget always flashing boot.img that are extracted from the rom.zip that you are installed through FASTBOOT..with typing "fastboot flash boot boot.img" then type.. "fastboot reboot"

done...

hope this help..

Is it that time for a moderator to post a 4.4 related sticky including all the updated methods and apps ( SELinux enabled twrp for one) I just figured it would reduce a lot of redundant posts. Even though I agree people should read the @#$%ing OP's in every thread... Maybe a sticky would get their attention since OP's apparently aren't? Just a suggestion. Im probably just rambling..

Moved out of Dev into Q&A.

If such a thread does not exist in General or Q&A or Dev and you want to post up a really good collection and keep up with it, then we might look at making it a sticky.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] jamesb85:
Too true!! Shame really..
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] jamesb85:
Hell yeah.. I personally wouldn't consider myself qualified to be writing stickies, as I'm no expert at this stuff. But then again I guess all you have to do is read OP’s. The devs do a pretty good job explaining how to install these ROMs safely and properly. I've been installing ROMs no problem since I joined xda. No prior knowledge of coding and/or Linux at all, just a mere power-user of Windows OS. But when I read some of these posts my jaw drops... It makes me feel like an all knowing god of installing ROMs.. Which I'm far from.. Lol. I was inspired to make the initial suggestion of a sticky after reading the 100,000th (sic) post asking which twrp to use for 4.4 KitKat. But it would be in vain as the non researched curiosity of fellow xda posters will continue..
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] mvmacd:
Actually I think a sticky is a great idea.. I just got this device and when trying to decide what ROM to get, most of the OP didn't specify exactly how to install the ROM.

I tried 1 but it didn't work in twrp, I looked it up on Google and found a post about philz CWM. So I ended up going with cm11 nightly, but yeah..so if anyone out there can't figure out how to install the new roms (SElinux based), use philz cwm. (And don't forget fastboot flash boot boot.img if s-on)
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] jamesb85:
I personally think people need to start going all the way with s-off if they are going to flash custom ROMs. The current recommended method is rumrunner I believe.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] jamesb85:
That will change soon though!! As 4.3 OTA update is coming out soon for us.. Actually... If a sticky was compiled im sure it would be best to wait after the 4.3 update.. As that is obviously the end of the line of updates for the glorious life the Jewel has had since being released..
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Magnum_Enforcer:
I wouldn't mind putting something together. I was thinking of something that included both TWRP & CWM recovery options, along with links to all the current KK builds for our device.

The biggest issue I've seen is that users don't read (or don't understand) that you specifically have to use a recovery that is SE-Linux enabled, and that the standard TWRP recovery available from Goo or TWRP's site won't work.
