Hi everyone

Execuse me for idiot questions

I accidentally removed completely IMEI label tray.

Can it damaged my device?

Thanks in advance for replies!

It could void the warranty, but only your local Xperia Care can answer that question, as for functionality it shouldn't, as long as you are able to firmly close the flap/cover.

Contact your local Xperia support, they will be able to answer that question.

The main question is can this label damage the plastic/metal part where he was mounted when I pull it out?

the plastic label itself was torn from the edge where it was fixed

You should contact your local Xperia and request a vacuum test.

I get a reply from Sony UK:

Dear *****,

Thank you for contacting the Sony Xperia support centre in regards to your Sony Xperia Z4 Tablet.

We understand that you took the IMEI label out of the tablet and you want to know if that damages the device. We can advise that although it may not damage the device but the warranty that you get with the tablet has been void because the IMEI tab is not supposed to be taken out since it identifies the device.

We apologise for the inconvenience caused.
