Hi guys! Do you know where I can buy motherboard to replace the one I have in my z5 dual? It got water damaged and I sent it to the repair shop and their asking me to pay almost the same amount I paid it brand new. (Is replacing the motherboard that expensive? I'll not continue if it is...) So I'm going to try fix it myself or let someone who knows better do it while I'll buy the parts. I hope someone can help me. Thanks!

hey man, apparently my motherboard needs a replacement. I sent my Z5 E6653 to SONY but they didnt repair it due to "bend" on frame. I then sent it to a different service, they found that the Baseband IC and Antenna needs replacements, I paid the additional payment but they couldn't repair as the motherboard is broke apparently .
Did you sort your issue out? where did you get a new motherboard/was it worth it?

hi,
is there any problem with replacing the motherboard, such as the fingerprint sensor is somehow tied to the original motherboard? i'm thinking about buying a z5 with broken display on ebay and using that motherboard. thanks for any help!

Who ever is thinking that their motherboard is not functioning, you have to try at mobile repair shops.
Sony service center people tell you to change everything but they are wrong.
My Z5 is water damaged and Sony India wanted me to pay 25000 Indian Rupees (convert it).
I've taken my phone to mobile repair shop(Delhi) and paid 5000 rupees for repairs including screen replacement.
Ofcourse screen is not genuine but mobile is working 100%. Fingerprint etc....

If your phone is even vibrating without anything on display, it is not motherboard fault. Get your screen replaced. It will do.

Hello Guys. I too have a Sony Xperia Z5 E6653 Single sim version. I accidentally dropped my phone into water and then the screen started behaving strange. After switching off the phone to avoid damage and turned it ON after couple of days now I found my screen dead. When I touch the fingerprint sensor the phone vibrates, when I press the camera button the LED turns ON and I can hear the click sound. I couldn't put the phone in rice as I was traveling. Giving the phone to service center the technician said that the display IC is gone and he cant do anything. I took the phone to local repair shop and guy told me that display is gone and he can try replacing the display, but still not working. Is there any store in India - Mumbai where the chip level repairs are done, any hopes in resurrecting the phone?
