There are no sensors that can detect if a flap is not firmly closed. However this can be shown after you have used some accessories where you need to open the flaps, for example the charges. When disconnects from the chargers you can get this message. If you don't want to see it again you can tick 'don't show this again' and press OK.

Sorry to dig up an old thread but was wondering how to reenable the popup warning the flaps are not closed and the phone is not waterproof. I clicked "Do not ask me again" by accident and cannot find how to reactivate this.

Thank you

Thank you very much naciomclen!

I knew it was one of those but there are so many that I couldnt establish which one of them was the right one to clear

Is there any other way to check the waterproof status? I don't want the warning popping up, but I do want to explicitly check the waterproofing before using the phone in a scenario that would require it.

You should be able to see if you open the lids.There should be some squares,check if they are pink or white.Pink=water has entered,white=water has not entered.

Oh I don't mean if water had already got in the seals I mean an app or something where I can check if the phone is currently waterproof _before_ getting it wet

Oh,if the seals are closed,there is a high chance.I suggest you visit a nearby sony centre for that.

I don't think there is an app for checking wet or not.

Don't forget to close the cover and check the joint completely tight or not every time you put it into water.

That's all.

If it gets wet in inner, it will work wierd. You don't need an app to tell you if wet or not.

Water gets in from the back where the flash light is located, but it doesn't pass through the orange rubber part where the battery is located, will that damage my Xperia ZR or is that the way it works, i need help, thanks

Alexander you are wrong, there are no Water proof sensors, all my flaps are closed and every time i turn my z1 on, i get the message, "please close the external connector covers to secure waterproofness" every time, when i click ok, then open a flap, i never then get the message again, no sensors, only some squares that go pink if water enters,

Hi,

Sorry, there was quite the typo from my side. There are no sensors, not there are now sensors which i accidentally wrote. Sorry for misleading you.

However as I also wrote, this massage are triggered from the Smart Connect app when you have used an accessories like the charger. When disconnecting the charger you will get this message the first time, since you have to open the flap to connect the charger.

I get that it is a basic or standard message that pops up if you charge your phone because you need to open the cover but is it normal even if I am using the magnetic charger dock that the message pops up even I remove it?
