A neighbour( a woman) gave me this phone today to help her unlock it, she said her son set a password and the phone stops accepting it, I thought it was a small something and took it from her, I tried everything I could but no way, I could have flashed it for her but I don't know the model, asked her she said she doesn't know either, asked for the receipt she said she lost it, omo I come weak, so I told her I could help maybe if I put it here, I know someone might be using the kinda phone,


I first thought it was Xperia Z2. I don't know if it is., so please if you know the model kinda post it, it uses a nano SIM card.
Sorry I don't have a solution for you. Goodluck. I just hope it's not a Chinese fake.

Oga go to settings and click about phone. Check in the sun menus you should get the model number there. From there Google Sony xperia model put the model number you got from the settings -about phone menu

did you read the post, I said the phone is password locked, her son set a password to the phone and this morning the password becomes an incorrect password, she gave me to unlock it for her, but I need to know the phone model. I can't access anything in the phone.

Have you tried accessing the system? I don't know how to get there on the Xperia but I'm guessing holding down power and either up or down volume key. Google it, you should be able to get the model from there. And NO, you don't need the password to access it.

Is the back made of glass or plastic?

Plastic sir, the case is made of plastic.
Re: ... by Nobody: 7:36pm On Jun 20, 2016
Since the back is made out of plastic that rules out Xperia Z2 or Z3 since those are made out of glass. But just to be sure kindly let us know if the phone has speaker grills at the buttom and top. We are left with 2 options, Xperia Z and Xperia Z1. Xperia Z is ruled out since that one does not have a camera button while this one has. So I am 85% sure this phone is Sony Xperia Z1.

Now if u really want to confirm, open the sim card tray, gently remove the tray u will see the serial number and model number. If u don't find it there then open the memory card slot, u will definietly find it in one of those 2 places. Goodluck.

Dat looks pretty much like my Z2 but it's slimmer so I'm assuming it's a Z3.. I think there's always d Google Gmail option for when password or pattern lock is forgotten. Jus swipe down from d top of the screen and switch d data on then try d email option
Re: ... by freshcvvs: 8:15pm On Jun 20, 2016
Z1's back isn't made of plastic. it cracks just like the screen at the front. so Z1 out of it. too.

Actually all Sony xperia z phones have dragontail glass back. I was just suprised when the op said it was made out of plastic. I still think this phone is either z1 or z2.

There are low budget Xperia phones.

Try gsmarena to learn more about them.

Not all comes with a glass back.

Re: ... by MightyPee: 9:12pm On Jun 20, 2016
greenhulk, it has a speaker grill at the bottom, a rectangular shaped. it has a plastic back. I can't find any trays. although it's supposed to because I had to use a pin to pull out the memory card and SIM out because of the ports lack friction.
Re: ... by freshcvvs: 9:15pm On Jun 20, 2016

Connect it to a PC as mass storage, it should display the name.

I hope you have evidence it's not stolen?

I used Xperia z few months ago and it uses micro SIM not nano SIM, so it's definitely not Xperia Z,
BTW: Xperia z back is made of dragon tail glass, not cheap plastic like Samsung s4

Mightypee, Have You Been Able To Unlock It?

Most Xperia Phones Doesn't Come With Stock Recovery,so The Key Combos Won't Work.

If You Can Fastboot,then Flash A Custom Recovery, You Should Be A To Wipe Or Flash A Mod To Bypass The Lock.

Well the OP didn't state it was a Z series phone, my comment was to point out that xperia is not just about Z series alone.
