Hi. Just to give more details: issue is with case and without, on any mode with flash. Phone is factory software without any modifications. Pure stock. I'm bit disappointed with quality of the photos. S3 was taking better shots... Maybe whole camera is faulty.

[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lpachuong:
I have the same issue with/without case on. Interestingly macro pictures with flash is fine but landscape pictures are affected. I think it is caused by the reflection of the flash so I used Torch instead of Fill flash for landscape pictures. Of course it is not that good. .

It's ok if you've got a very big torch, or a lot of time.
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danw_oz:
That is really bad, mine does this very slightly, but only when the phone selects a high ISO. In both these shots you took in the OP, the flash is not really going to do anything, because all objects are well out of the flashes range.

If using superior auto start the shot in the dark as possible part, the will put the camera into low light mode (no flash), then recompose and take your shot. I was amazed with the details I was able to capture doing this in pretty much just moon light. Or you can just use manual mode turn flash off and select a high iso

To the OP take your phone back because this is not right.
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sovatha:
Hi All,

I also have the same camera problem when using flash with my D6633. I have noticed that my phone's back cover is kinda loose. I think the glue use to shield the covers in Z3 is not that good. The camera shown good picture when I put pressure on the back cover area around the camera and flash area. I have also taking off the back cover (since mine is already loose) of the phone to test whether it is cause by defected camera or not. Without the back cover the picture also show good picture when shoot with flash at low light condition.

So, I think the problem is cause by the sticker use to shield the back cover of the phone (at least for my case) getting loose. This may cause some light of the flash bounce inside the unit which cause image problem.

If you have this problem and still in warrenty, I would strongly to get it replace. For me, my phone have no warrenty. So, I decided to order the sticker tape from Ebay to replace mine. I am still waiting for my sticker to arrive. I will update here if that solved the problem.

I hope this could help.

Camera shutting down when getting hot?

Hi, I am in south africa. It gets quite hot here in summer. When taking photos on a sunny day using the z3 camera. It warns me in the camera application that it's getting hot and will shut down? only after 5 minutes. Not even using 4k video. So is this normal? anyone else having this problem. If i use a 3rd party camera app I dont get the same issue. Can anyone also comment on what the normal temp is when using the camera and when playing games. With my temp app it got to 65-70 degrees celcius is that normal? Idling is anywhere from 38-48 c%

I think the problem is in the back glass cover. I exchanged my faulty phone with a new one. pictures were fine with or without flash. but after a day back glass got shattered and i started to have the same problem in pictures with flash on. (the crack is in front of flash)
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jacekwarchol:
the green spot

The green hue is visible:

Macro photo with flash: no

Normal photo with flash: yes

Video with flashlight: no

So... What can it be? I gues that if it would be back panel's fault, it would be visible in macro and video also?

---------- Post added at 03:01 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:57 PM ----------

And more thing, its visible in photos taken with flash during daytime, not only in low light.
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Apaar:
Exact same problem here! this happened after my 2 week old Z3 came back from repairs, Sony service centres did a lousy job on top of that they look at these images and say "this is a software problem not hardware the phone is functioning properly" also they denied a replacement.

Also im not using any rear protector.

I suddenly started to get pathetic pictures at night in Pitch Dark room or outside in auto mode with flash on my Z3.

The captured photos are very foggy as if some spirit or ghost. But in daytime or indoors with minimum or adequate light and flash turned off, photos are wonderful. I'm on MM latest ver. My Z3C is capturing perfect shots though. My phone is out of warranty.

I tried factory reset and clear cam,era data etc but none helped.
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] -Happy Feet-:
I had the same. My repair service (not Sony) replaced the Backcover with an 3rd Party Cover. That was the issue. Then I buy an new one from Sony and replaced it myself. Now it's fine again.
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simionescupg:
This is not a software problem!

Hey guys! Regarding to this problem... The flash light is making the photos blury on Xperia z3.

The problem is that under the back glass of the phone.. The separation between flashlight and camera sucks! This allows light to go in to the camera lens! To fix this problem you have to close that gap or to put some thin rubber ring covering the camera.. So that the flash light doesn't go thru the lens!

I had the same problem!

So it doesn't matter if the phone is locked.. Using stock or custom rom! You just need to seal this gap between flash and camera!

I know is a pain in the ass to remove the back glass.. But is the only way!

Hi Folks

hope this saves someone some time.

Part number for HD+ battery (not the HD) is GB-S02-308594-0100.

Picture (from http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2094006): [IMG="picture"]http://dl-1.va.us.xda-developers.com/1/6/3/5/9/5/0/IMG_4644.jpg?key=Aey6o3j6zaK81LWmApcXoA&ts=1416001841[/IMG]

There seems to be 1000s of posts out there from people with broken batteries, and no consistent info on suppliers.

If I find a supplier I will post again, but I'm not holding my breath.

that's what's inside of mine, HD+, anyone have someplace that sells replacements for HD+ in europe? the battery is bust, other than that it works great even though tablet is a tad slow, plenty great for movies and reading stuff... seems a shame to need to bin it just due to battery :(
[Nook HD, HD+ Accessories] digixmax:
The only on-line place I can find through Google search that seems to even carry the battery is portatronics (http://www.portatronics.com/index.php?cat=c535_Barnes---Noble-Nook-HD--BNTV600.html), but they don't seem to have very good customer reviews, e.g., http://www.yelp.com/biz/portatronics-new-york-4. :(

Power99 appears to have good feedback from XDA members but have not had the HD+ battery in stock for quite some time.
[Nook HD, HD+ Accessories] un4tural:
well, i wasn't ready to bin my perfectly working tablet just because the battery gave up, so here's my solution http://imgur.com/a/QqihT turns out sony makes almost exact same size and capacity cells to replace the pair that is in the nook, with some DIY elbow grease. if there are enough people ill make a tutorial or some more in depth information on the matter. Long live my NOOK HD+.
[Nook HD, HD+ Accessories] tj2003:
That battery is only 3000 mAh the Hd+ is 6000 mAh.
[Nook HD, HD+ Accessories] digixmax:
Hence [MENTION=3865843]un4tural[/MENTION]'s solution used 2 batteries.
[Nook HD, HD+ Accessories] un4tural:
Thanks, thought that was abundantly clear from the pictures. Sony cells are actually a bit smaller than the original, so i had some room left over, same capacity (3000Mah x2 cells) and even Li Po exactly same as originals. it works as new, lasts as new as well. super happy and easier than it sounds, just need to be careful not to short it out, touched the battery contacts together a few times, those LiPo cells pack some damn amperage, sparks are pretty scary. other than that a good soldering iron helps, as those terminals are huge heatsinks. Tossed out the encasing as it made things easier to just use some thick tape to insulate everything, with some adhesive to hold cells in, they're nice and stuck in there. Contacts didn't quite align, few terminals did so i soldered those directly while jumping others with a little wire (a fairly thick one, just in case). could do it better and tidier with current hindsight, but I'm too lazy to redo it when it works perfectly well as is also put together everything and all those screws + bezel adhesive... not ripping all that apart without a good reason.

also need to make sure both cells are fairly close in voltage as they might get damaged, they dish out some decent amperage and since they're connected together, can potentially end badly.

Anyways to update, it works perfectly fine, i noticed a boost in performance, i guess old cells couldn't deliver stable power causing issues. It lasts as new, i didn't do a weight in, but doubt it matter. Sony cells were 4.99£ each on ebay, so 9.98£ total.

all in all happy not to spend 60$+shipping+possibly import tax on the replacement battery which is likely a used part anyways. It's a great tablet(albeit slow) and hopefully will serve me well for my movies and reading needs for a long time to come. If anyone is looking to do this, feel free to PM me i'll be happy to help. Love my HD+, I'm probably not alone :highfive:
[Nook HD, HD+ Accessories] digixmax:
A link to your source of the batteries would be helpful, and (it might be too late to ask but) an even more close-up picture of the wiring connections would be great.
[Nook HD, HD+ Accessories] un4tural:
http://imgur.com/a/P32hD

batteries came from ebay http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/100-Genui...056770?hash=item20ea5f2282:g:8dgAAOSwDk5T5NQ0

The wiring, is pretty simple, + to + and - to - . all marked on batteries, if you don't make note before you undo the terminals of original cells, the 2 contacts closer to middle are positive terminals and 2 further on each side are negative.

had to strip off the plastic casing and a bunch of tape off the ultra z batteries, had to use wire to jump 3/4 terminals as the contacts didn't align very well compared to originals, but again, it's just a few jumper wires and unless you keep the super long there is enough room in there to leave them, but not if you want to keep the little black plastic enclosure, then it'd be troublesome as that leaves no room, that's why i went for the tape things up approach.

trickiest part was alighting everything and placing tape on top of terminals so they don't short out, rest is straight forward soldering a few wires to terminals. keep in mind to get some alright flux and solder as i'd imagine it'd be quite hard to tin those without it. then again no clue what they're made of.

also lower capacity cells should work fine, i was looking for something of larger capacity to be honest(who wants worse battery life!?), but couldn't really find anything that would fit nearly as nicely as the sony cells, or not be china no brand things with 2 wires sticking out of them...

hope it helps :good:

Thank you for posting the "tutorial" for installing the 2 Sony Z batteries. Scoured the net for hours in search of the elusive GB-S02-308594-0100 and, as a previous person posted, only found it available for $69 plus shipping (USA) from Portatronics out of NYC. However, a quick search of consumer reviews for this site turned up the lowest rating I've ever seen on the Better Business Bureau site .

Then I stumbled into your solution, un4tural. THANK YOU for posting this! It is the only solutions I've found in days of searching. On Ebay I found the batteries here in the U.S. at $24 for 2 plus free shipping. I know you've already installed your battery, but if anyone else reading this plans to do the same, a short video tutorial would be greatly appreciated! My HD+ is less than 3 years old and the folks at Barnes & Nobles were kind enough to offer me a new device to buy. WHY WOULD I TRUST another machine from them?! Plus I do love this Nook, when it worked!! I'll post a follow up on how the install went & will include photos & possibly a video if all goes well.

Were they Sony LIS1520ERPC? Does anybody know if the Sony LIS1525ERPC or Sony LIS1558ERPC will fit.

---------- Post added at 10:26 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:44 AM ----------

I have a question about fit of the batteries. It seems the Sony Lis 1520 battery is 98x82x3mm. Would the Lis 1525 at 75x62x5mm or the Lis 1558 at 79.05x60.26x4.26mm fit?
[Nook HD, HD+ Accessories] un4tural:
[MENTION=7319632]EPell13[/MENTION] its not hard, just need to remove some tape and stuff then a little soldering, not sure if it's allowed to post links to other forum, sorry if not but I've posted here as well http://www.eevblog.com/forum/repair/bn-nook-hd-battery-replacement/msg857055/#msg857055 there are measurements etc. too for what you need, plus some more info. i guess ill try and compile it all into a single post and put it out there, it's really not difficult as long as you can do some basic soldering etc. any battery would work, of larger or smaller capacity as long as it is within the size constraints.

[MENTION=5393473]tj2003[/MENTION] the cells are around 3mm thick, whole package 200x85x3 mm. now with replacement, you want something 190x85x2.5-4mm maybe 4.5 thick, as there is some room to spare thickness wise, but not a lot and original cells are 3mm thick. with the ultra z cells i used, i can still bend the case inward on where the battery is, so i'd say another 1mm on that shouldn't be noticeable, but i am eye balling.

the battery you mention should fit, if not you can get creative and move the control circuit elsewhere, it around 1mm wide between the two cells as you can see in photos. keep in mind lipo cells come in kind of baggies, so you might be able to get away with slightly bigger ones if you tuck everything inside neatly.

It's not exact science, but it's not too difficult, the battery contacts are huge, so even if you have hands of ham you should be alright.

glad it helps someone, will gladly answer any other question you might have. also make sure the two cells are at roughly similar voltage, those bastards have pretty huge amp output, as i mentioned they produce some proper sparks if shorted, so they could get quite hot from charging each other cause they're basically just shorted together, so try and keep the voltage difference minimal. mine were within 0.1volts, had no issues. charging them right after might be a good idea too to equal out the voltages.

Kicking up an OLD thread here, but I wanted to put it out there that the LIS1558ERPC batteries do work. They are about as thick as you can go though, so now we know the max. My nook fired right up with no problems upon plugging it in, and all my battery issues are gone. Thanks again [MENTION=3865843]un4tural[/MENTION] for the idea! I got mine from Amazon for a total of $17 usd.

Udate: battery still working flawlessly, and as a bonus, on paper the lis1558 should give me approx. an extra 40 minutes of use. Its a peak 4.35v battery so nominally .1v more and 200mAh more in a smaller, though slightly thicker, package. Keep in mind this is calculated off the specs sheet of the ovation showing that it does 9 hours of video playback with 6000mAh making the draw at .66mA and the upgrade adding 200mAh to the same numbers. This makes for 9.39 hours of video play. For the price, I am happy. Antoine else try this yet? How did it work out?
