ok so last night my NBD crashed and is stuck on the NBD splash screen..this is happened before and i just had to reflash it....
the problem this time is my battery is empty...i can jump start it (red and black wire from usb) enough to start the phone, but since i cant load the OS i cant start charging the thing....
1. is there anything i can do short of buying a new battery?
2. how long do u think it would take to force charge it with the black and red usb wires until its full enough to flash?
This happened to me, I plugged my phone into the wall charger and left it for about a half hour, it started taking a charge and I was able to boot it long enough.
however, im using an old razr charger, which the phone doesnt take a charge from unless its on....:-/
Do you get the red charging light when you force charge it? Try different miniUSB charger. Something similar to this happened to me just yesterday and I got it jump started with an iPod wall charger adapter with a normal miniUSB cable.
well by jump starting i mean...i take the battery out..take a usb cable connected to the comp, cut one end off..take the red and black wire and put it to the positive and negative battery ports..since the battery is out f the phone...no lights..
how else can u forcecharge the bat./
Stolli,
with the wall charger you should be able to re-charge:

(especially post no.11 and following)
"Normally" also with a USB connection as mentioned by ND4SPD.
Cheers!
Sorry, I didn't know what you meant. What I meant to say by jump starting was just force charging the battery in the Wizard.
I don't know if this was understood properly, but when I meant a normal miniUSB cable was that I stuck that cable into the iPod's wall charger adapter.
Keep trying and good luck!

post no.9 may help ..
Hi,
Can't seem to figure out whats wrong with my i780 so was wondering if anyone here has experienced similar problems.
My i780 don't seem to charge anymore when using the charging plug (plug it in, no charging light or charging symbol.. etc..)
Plug it in through USB, phone charges fine (charging light comes on, charging symbol displayed)
Now, I thought, oh must be the plug, so I tested it using the charging case... charging light comes on battery charges fine!!??
I would just forget about the plug but I can't seem to get a full charge just through USB.
So if my phone charges by USB, plug not working on the phone, but works with the charging case what could be wrong???
Anyone have any suggestions?
my i780 always show charg icon after upgrade...what the probem??????????/
i had the same problem as you. i sorted it out though. Do you mostly charge through the external charger?
i just kept on leaving it on charge for about an hour or so. Soft resetted the phone while on charge and then it worked fine. LED went on and the whole lot.
Try to charge your phone at least once a week with the battery in the phone. I can't prove that charging almost exclusively through the external charger does this but i have a suspicion. That is the only unusual thing about my usage pattern.
Has anyone had the same problem
Hello, recently I'm having a problem with my Galaxy Core with charging!
This occurs randomly, few times only! Not always:
When I plug in the charger, as usual, it shows battery charging! Even after charging one hour, when charger is unplugged, the battery meter doesn't increase! I've tried restarting, cooling down battery, charging again, and it charged normally 100%. So, basically it does not bother me much, but just wanna know if this happens to anybody else, and as, I think, its a hardware problem, so I worry about it?
Another thing is if I connect my APACER B120 Mobile Bank, the phone doesn't charge, does not even show its plugged in. Other phones charges perfectly, even with the same cable. Has anyone tried charging with this, or any portable charger? Thanks!
sound like hardware problem man
Make sure your usb cable is working and use the cable you got with the phone.

I have only one cable, and it is the one I got with the phone. Cable works fine even on Tether/ReverseTether!
These past few days a strange thing has been happening to my phone while charging. First off let me state the type of charger I am using this is the one:
http://www.amazon.com/Tenergy-Charg...F8&qid=1459750097&sr=8-8&keywords=quickcharge
Now when I charge my xperia z5 overnight it never fully charges. It charges so slow and stops at 66% or so however when I turn off my phone it charges properly. The charger I use has a blue light on when plugged in however when you connect a quick-charge enabled device it turns green. I noticed it no longer turns green with my Z5 however when I plug in my Xperia Z2 tablet it goes green straight away so the problem is not with the charger.
When I restart the Z5 while the charger is plugged in the light changes to green however when the phone is fully rebooted it is not charging and when I plug unplug the charger the light goes to blue and the slow charging. I tired going into safe mode and that did not change anything. I really need help with this as this is a new phone and this issue is frustrating I even cleaned the charging area with alchohol with no results
You didn't post your results with the stock charger,
What happened?

you might have a faulty battery try to RMA it
In my experience I would never say "The problem is not with xxx" just because another device works with xxx. That is the equivalent of saying just because your freezer works on such and such power outlet It does not when plugged into another outlet but the plug fits both outlets and your kettle works in the other outlet so the problem isn't the outlet. There is this thing called electricity and amperage it's not as simple as that the only thing you're doing wrong is presuming that output is the same on both outlets which may not be the case.
Anyway as stupid as my analogy was this is exactly what you are doing with your charging issue. Before calling foul on the device we need to know what happens when you use an official charger and official quick charger. For reasons of warranty you want to be sure they also do not work otherwise you will end up fitting the bill for a non fault when if do send it back for RMA.
Hi, I am a novice in phone repairs though I have successfuly replaced the screen and charging ports on a samsung s6 and note 4.
I am requiring some expert advice on this problem, I was given an XZ from my friend with a cracked screen and charging problem, the charging port became temperamental and failing (at least I think it was that) and eventually wouldn't charge at all. The charging port was handled a bit harshly toward the end, for example the charging cable lifted up and down to try to get a charging response.
Anyway I ordered a screen/digitizer and charging port flex for it, and fitted them, following a guide. Before this, the phone had around 2% charge. After the repair, I switched it back on and conncted the charger, the screen was fine, however there was no response from the charger. The phone then ran flat and eventually ran flat enough to not be able to show the "low charge" symbol when the phone is off. Then after plugging and unplugging the cable (via USB in the pc) it would charge for what seemed a second then stop, the red charging notification light was lighting up. The same happened with a wall charger. I then stripped it back down and back together again. This time there was no response if I remember right, then I connected it to the wall charger and left it for 3 hours or so. I went back to it and it had charged up to 15%.
Now i'm at the point where the phone is working, it's on 90% now, but it charges very slowly, around 60-350 mA per hour on Ampere app. So a full charge is around 12+ hours. This is in the wall socket with a fast charger. Additionally, it takes 10 seconds for the phone to recognise the charger after is is plugged in and that is consistent each time I plug it in. The phone now isn't recognised by my PC via USB, and also won't charge that way also, it just doesn't do anything if I plug it in there. Other than that, the phone works and it holds its charge well.
Any ideas? Thank you.

pick up an original sony charging cable - no idea why it makes such a difference, but.........
Hi, thanks for the reply, I bought a sony charger but it's still the same, drawing about 50-300 milliamps from wall charger, not recognised by PC and takes 10 secs exactly for the phone to recognise it's being charged. It's just odd how it stopped charging before the "fix", now the new flex lets it charge slowly. Can a battery problem cause this? It still holds its charge well. Maybe this problem is recognisable by some phone repair experts around here? any ideas?
Thanks
Noticed the phone only draws charge from a 3amp charger, anything less isn't recognized. And the power drawn from a 3amp can be 30-1000ma but averages around 300 ma. Can anybody point me to a hardware forum maybe? I can't find any, i guess it need taking to a phone expert but it's gonna end up costing more than its worth with the stuff i have done already.
Aukey Quickcharge 3.0 is working fine. It is cheap too.
I have just purchased a aukey charger, but my XZ seems to be taking longer to charge than the UH20 charger that came with my XZ. Any suggestions guys?

Have you tried cleaning/replacing the charging port itself? As i see, you replaced only the flex cable.
There's probably extremely weak contact somewhere in the charging hardware i think, because you need 3.0 A charger to get any kind of charging response. Weaker current probably gets lost at that 'weak contact'.
Buying new chargers won't fix that if you ask me
I have exactly same problem with you
I am about to buy a new charger, yet I saw your post
At first I thought it was the cable. Then my cable work normal with other phone. So does my charger, it connect perfectly with other phone (xperia xz premium and xiaomi mi5)
It seems that our phoneis the only one who can'y charge normally.
I am quite depressed, also looking for solution. Mind if you share if you have succedeed? Thanks before

Try plug in and plug out. My phone sometimes charge a normaxl. But need a lot of effort
Solved
Use the the detect usb in the notification keys before connecting the charger,, this will solve the fast recharging issues
Did you solved problem? I have same issue. Changed battery, usb-flex, no luck
Hi,
I have bought an used XZ.
The owner sold me this phone because he need new battery. I have replaced the old one after a week of test. The old battery works only for 6/10h and drain totally during night even if the phone is turned off. The new one have the same problem. I try to solve with an other battery, and nothing same problem. 12h of standby, after is totally drained. The strange thing is that I have the same battery life even when the phone is turned off, but not only this. If the phone is in 0% he charge without problem. If we have any % of battery I need to connect and disconnect the charger from a wall plug many and many times before he start charging. Phone give me the charge icon for a second and after nothing until I disconnect the charger from a wall plug(I have tested different charger and cable). During my investigation I have found that this phone results every time a little bit hot even if turned off. I have try to disconnect all is possibile, but the heat is from CPU! Now I know that this is the cause of fast discharging in all conditions.
Now I need to know if anyone with a "normal" unit feel the phone heat while turned off and while is on wich temperature have. Mine is every time on 34/35° in standby. Let me know,
thanks
i have same problem . sony xperia xz and sony corp is very very Rubbish
Hi Guys,
I found a way to charge my Xperia XZ with the same loop problem.
Try to push upper volume pad together with power button and plug in the charging cable.
Hold the buttons for 3-5 minutes - you will feel vibrating signals like 3 short and 1 long.
so hold it and then simply leave it for a several minutes and it should start to accept the charge.
Alex Kutikhin
Yes - I had this problem...fixed it by holding in POWER UP and OFF button for 120 seconds.
Do not let go...you will feel vibration (1 short, 3 short). Keep holding for 120 seconds.
Device should now be powered down. Plug in charger cable and leave device off until 100% charged.
Still no fix for the original post’s problem? Having the exact issue with my xzs right now.

Old Thread, I know, but I encountered this issue today on an Sony X compact - F5321. Fixed it and want to report back for the next guy.
Same symptoms, noticed first a slow charge, phone was drawing low current and only responding to cable after 10 seconds of plugging in. I than checked for data connection, couldn’t get any. Opened it changed the USB port - BINGO - that fixed the issue, everything working nice.
TLTR: no Solution in Software, it’s a faulty USB-port. change it.
Have a nice day.
