Battery change, missing piece or not? - Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello, i ordered a new battery (this).
But when i got it i noticed something, the battery is missing the "black plastic thing" that connects between the camera and the flashlight.
As you can see on the image in the link, there is connections on both sides. But not in reality when i got the battery. See the attached image for a better explanation.

Do i just remove the plastic thing from the original battery to my new one or what? I cant find any battery on the internet with the plastic thing on it, except the one i bought. But in reality it was missing.
Then i have another question. I ordered a new adhesive tape but i have not got it from the company yet. Can i use some 3M doublesided waterproof tape instead that i cut by myself?
Thanks

Dude, the "black thing" is the NFC antenna. Just remove it from the old battery and stick it to the new one. Otherwise your NFC won`t work.

NFC Antenna
Hello.
when i try to take off the NFC antenna from the battery, accidentaly brake the antenna. i can find the z3 compact Antenna. Does anyone know if will work on a Z1 compact? Thanks

HTC disassembled and assembled but not correct...

Hello,
Yesterday I replaced my MB of my HTC so I needed to disassemble the P3300.
After replacing the MB, I reassembled the P3300 but now I see I have forgotten something. Can someone tell me where I must put the plastic? (right on the photo, left is just to show the size of the plastic)...
Thanx

I don't see the part as a replaceable component on page 61 of the manual:
http://mikechannon.net/PDF Manuals/HTC Artemis Service Manual.pdf
That does not prove anything though.
I wonder if it has snapped off the casing somewhere? Any sign of a snapped off edge on the part?
Mike
no nothing, When I removed the backpanel it came out...
It looks a little similar to the piece mentioned here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=474911
(Yes, I know it's a different phone, but it might have a similar purpose/location)
Just a thought
Mike
im guessing you will have put it back together now but it boes at the bottom of the back casing directly opposite from the little vibration module, i think it is a redundant bit of plastic
No no, you have to put this plastic inside to housing on place, where is stylus insertion hole. Without this plastic, when you put stylus to artemis, the tip will be inserted frequently inside the Artemis, not to stylus tube

Case separation?

So I bought my nexus 7 release day, excellent piece of hardware. I have a folio faux leather case and screen protector. I pulled it from the case today and noticed this... Never dropped thrown damaged Etc and I really baby all my devices. No idea where to start. Warranty coverage?? Happened to anyone else? Hope I'm not screwed on this one, pretty bummed out.

Looks like it would just click back together.
I have a Moko case that clips on the bottom corners, and sometimes when I remove the case from the corners of the tablet the back of the tablet starts to come off something like you pictured, but not as much. I simply snap (or press) the back, back on to the tablet. Are you not able to do that also? The backs come off rather easily as some people have removed them to fiddle with the wireless charging contacts. Everything else seems good on my tablet, so I will just be more careful when removing the case.
I finagled the case back on however one of the clips seems to be broken off unfortunately

Resurrection: Gnex mainboard button cell battery

So my Gnex went black over a year ago, I tried all the guidance at the time with combinations of plugging and battery pulls. It just plain would not respond in any way to any stimuli. I got a new Nexus 5 and lived happily ever after until the discussion of Lollipop on Gnex resparked interest.
So, I gutted the Gnex, everything looks good, but that little tiny button cell battery on underside of mainboard screams guilty.
BUT the little bastard is SPOT WELDED in its holder 6 places. 3 on top, 3 on bottom. Really? Yeah.
I manage to carefully sheer the welds with a tiny flathead. It reads ML414H.should be 3VDC, It tested out at 2VDC. Enought to keep phone from booting? Charging?
Anyway, I'm over here in Norway, and lets say getting on of these tiny batteries would apparently requires some creative logistics. (They dont even have Radio Shack )
I need help tracking down one to see if its a legit fix.

This battery is simply a backup battery for the system clock. The problem is not with it.

Has anyone replaced the volume buttons? No guides show this part

This is the only part, the entire ribbon cable connecting the buttons and either the sim or SD card slot(not sure which is which) to the motherboard, that is not shown in any guides I've found on how to replace it.

It looks to me like you might have to fish the whole thing through the opening for the card slot but I just wanted to double check. Anyone?
Never mind. I was right. You gotta peel back the foam tape on back back to reveal the SD card slot, which turns out as you can see connected to another part, some sensor in the front I guess related to the front cam. You gotta carefully pry it upwards as it's glued down. thin razor blade. Idk, at this point I barely know what I'm looking at lol. This phone is the worst to dig into. Get yourself some near sighted glasses or something. Recently learned this phone has the worst score for repair ability. I do confirm this. Good luck if you're planning on replacing anything in here.

Google Support says its normal.
The gap shown in the picture shouldn't be there.
Best Joke ever: Google Support says its normal.
I agree, that gap should not be there. Not on mine. Call them back, tell them you went to Best buy or a VZ store to compare and you have this big gap that they don't.
You said you just got it, return it to where you bought it so you don't get stuck with a refurbished from Google..... assuming you bought it new.
Reading the chat history in the picture, the employee might think of the speaker cutout. You could try to highlight the gap in some color.
This slot is normal, try gently using a clean soft bristle toothbrush to sweep it out. That's what I do. Works great for the speaker grills and charging port as well!
You are right but this was the Beginning of the Chat. They know now what i mean but says the Photos are not enough and want a Video or more Photos.
