Sony Xperia Z3 Compact: battery replacement

Sony Xperia Z3 Compact is the company’s “small flagship”, which officially appeared on store shelves on November 19, 2014. The increased size (in comparison with the previous version of the “baby”, Xperia Z1 Compact) to 4.6”, as well as new body materials, coupled with reduced weight, immediately attracted buyers. The popularity of the device was also justified by the price tag, which couldn’t help but rejoice. Despite some “childhood illnesses,” the model turned out to be more than successful. One of these problems is the battery, which after a certain time can begin to swell and lead to quite unpleasant consequences in the form of a cracked back cover. How to avoid such an outcome?

Reasons for battery failure

Sony produces batteries at its own facilities for its devices, which means one thing - they won’t do anything bad for themselves. True, it is Sony batteries that most often swell when they become unusable. There are several reasons for battery failure. Which of them rendered the battery of your device unusable - our engineers will help you find out when conducting absolutely free diagnostics of the device. What could be the reasons?

    • Failure due to expiration date. Each battery is marked with the date of its manufacture (marking type w, where XX is the year of manufacture, where YY is the week of manufacture, “w” is the separator). If your new device, for unknown reasons, was left in a warehouse before sale and was not in demand for a long time, then the device’s battery may, at a minimum, lose its nominal capacity, and at a maximum, it may fail and even swell.
    • Failure due to wear. Sony provides a warranty on batteries equal to 300 charging cycles or six months of use (for new devices, stated as a separate clause in the warranty card). During a year of use, your device is charged at least about 400 times. Lithium-ion batteries are quite sensitive to the number of cycles and this sooner or later leads to their failure. The symptoms are standard: shutdown under load with a positive charge, rapid discharge, possible bloating.
    • Exposure to moisture. Despite the fact that the devices of the “Z” series have a degree of dust and moisture protection according to IP65 / IP68 standards, over time the plugs (or rather the seals on the plugs) wear out, and one of the “childhood diseases” can also affect the lack of moisture protection » models - peel-off display. A short circuit on the battery control board can cause it to fail.
    • Short circuit or power surge. Sony Xperia Z3 Compact, in addition to the standard connector, has a magnetic charging connector. If a non-original charger is used, the charging unit itself may allow increased voltage to pass through, and if the power controller misses this surge, the battery will fail. The second option is to change the polarity of magnetic charging. Reversing the poles is quite problematic
    • due to the fact that the contact pads have different shapes, but devices that fail after polarity reversal are handled monthly and this is not an isolated case. Most often, when there is a voltage surge missed by a non-original charger, or when the magnetic charging connector is reversed, the motherboard first fails, but in rare cases the battery dies.
    • Manufacturing defect. The situation is more than rare, but it does occur. A good example is the Sony Xperia M5. A fairly large batch of devices of this model were covered under warranty service and battery replacement. When the phone started working in LTE networks and there was a certain load on the GSM amplifier, the battery was turned off and the device could only be brought back to life by connecting to a charger.
    • Damage due to poor quality repairs. This is not a common cause of failure, but, unfortunately, it also has a place on this list. Failure to carefully disassemble and reassemble the device can lead to damage to the control board or battery cable, and in the worst case, to damage to the battery itself. In this case, battery replacement is strictly necessary.

How to change the battery on Sony Xperia Z3 Compact?

Replacing the battery on any Sony model, as well as on this model, in the absence of care and knowledge of the device’s design, can lead to bad consequences. Let's describe step by step how to replace the battery.

    • Opening the device. Disassembly of the phone begins through the back cover. To properly open the device without damaging the phone cover and frame, the back cover is heated (due to this, the adhesive base partially loses its properties). The cover is removed using a specialized tool.
    • Partial disassembly. To replace the battery, unlike the younger model Sony Xperia Z1 Compact, a deeper disassembly of the smartphone is required. The so-called “chassis” is dismantled, which combines several functions at once: fixation of internal elements, additional support for the back cover, as well as amplification of various signals of the device (the chassis contains a group of antennas responsible for the operation of Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, mobile networks and GPS). Damage to this part will almost certainly lead to a deterioration in the operation of a certain type of network on the smartphone.
    • Removing the battery. The battery on the Xperia Z3 Compact does not have a frame and is fixed to the motherboard with a special adhesive tape. For correct removal without damaging the motherboard, a special tool is used, as well as a special liquid that weakens the adhesives of the adhesive tape.
    • Testing the device, a new battery. The phone itself is connected to the LBP (Laboratory Power Supply) to check the functionality and correct operation of all components of the phone. Meanwhile, the new battery is being tested on a special device - Cadex. If the battery passes the test, it is installed in your smartphone. Next, the complete charging/discharging cycle of the phone is tested. At the end of testing, the device is assembled in the reverse order.
    • Re-installation of the back cover and crimping. Before the device is closed and handed over to you, the frame and cover are prepared for installation. Both parts are completely degreased, and the remnants of the old adhesive base are also removed. A new adhesive base for the back cover is installed and, after installing the cover, the phone is sent under the press to better set the new adhesive base.

  4. We remove the back panel carefully, moving along the left side of the device; on the right, we also unhook the device from top to bottom.

  8. To prevent a similar malfunction from happening again, we recommend: do not use a charger from another company, so as not to damage the gadget.
  9. Monitor the condition of the charging socket; a loose connector leads to insufficient power supply to the phone.
