Been having some issue with my Xperia 5 II with wall outlets. Phone does not charge with wall outlet and portable battery. Tried different wires but does not charge. I did notice that when I plug the phone to the wall outlet the phone detects it cause I feel it vibrate but just doesn't charge. However it does charge with the same wires to a computer.
Anyone having this issue or have any solutions?
My phone was dead one morning and when I plugged it in I got a vibration but the LED light that indicates charging did not light. I tried everything and as last resort I went to the manual. It said that if you drain the battery when you start charging it gives no visible clue, none, until it hits around 15%. That was true. I plugged it in and read a book and eventually the red LED came on and the phone charged and all has been well.

before this happen when i charge my phone either below or above 15% it shows the charging icon on the battery and the red LED. And like I mention plug in to charge on the computer under 15% i see the LED on and charge icon on the battery. Nonetheless i will try your method and try plugging it in under 15% to see if it charges.
Tried charging the phone at 0% and also inbetween 0% and 15% still not charging. The only way for it charge now is on a fast charger sony usb c cable.

OK, this is a noob question, but here goes.
The galaxy beam2 (i8530) comes bundled with a desktop charger.
I have a question regarding this charger as it isnt explained on the owner's manual.
When i leave a battery in the charger, the LED would first show RED because it is charging.
And after few hours when the battery is fully charged, the LED would show GREEN.
So far so good right?
OK here comes the good part. If I delay in removing the charger from the power outlet,
the LED would then turn from GREEN to flashing-ORANGE (or blinking orange)
What does this means? I havent been doing a lot of charging on the charger till now.
But there was once when I removed the freshly charged battery from the blinking-orange charger,
the phone shows only 96% of charge and not 100%
Hello.
I have a new Moto g 4g and sometimes when I plug it into the mains to charge the charging battery icon appears and the phone says charging on the lock screen. But as soon as the % number should go up (i.e. after a couple of mins on charge), the battery charge icon is still there but the phone no longer says charging on the lock screen, and it doesn't charge no matter how long it is plugged in for (although the battery doesnt drain either).
I turned the phone off and plugged it in and when it got to the charge screen it kept flicking between a question mark, and the percentage charged amount.
It seems to always charge fine when I plug it into a USB on my computer (although slowly).
Has anyone else seen this? Is it worth completly draining the battery and charging from flat, or would this do more harm than good?
Thanks for the help.

did u try a different charger?
When I plug my Moto G into the charger, the bolt icon would show up but the battery settings would not say that it's charging. I tried to restart the phone but that made the charge drop from 13% to 6%. I've also tried to clean the port, change cables, change outlet, and the phone is still not charging up. It's been plugged in the charger for an hour and the battery is stuck at 3%. What do I do?
few days ago, my phone stopped charging, then i switch off charging logo starts blinking but no battery percentage was showing. but i kept the phone plugged in, maybe after 30 mins it started showing percentage, i turned on my phone and plug the charger again to check if it is fine, then i showed the charging icon and started charging slowly. but i discover that when i unplug charger , charging icon was still there. i keep using my phone for 2-3 days, shown no problem but the charging icon always on even without charger, i tried other charger and also check usb cable by connecting to a computer. after 2-3 days suddenly everything is fine. no issues for next 2-3 days, then the charging icon and slow charging came back as i fall sleep at night keeping my charger on. but this time when i plug charger, no charge icon, i switch of, usb charge logo start blinking after every 10-12 seconds without battery percentages, i kept the charger on, when i turn on phone, it was charged, battery was fine, but still when i plug charger no sign , but when i switch off it starts blinking , it,s been going on for days. and i,m concerned. Is this hardware issues or is it software... i want to go for repair but i am not sure how should i address the problem to them

Try a battery replacement.
Hi everybody,
it's a few days I have weird problem with SuperCharge.
I apologize for the lenght of this post, but I don't want to miss any detail that could help in solving my problem.
I recently replaced the battery with a new original one (I hope) bought from an eBay seller.
When I switched-on the smartphone, battery level was 58%. So, I used it normally and, when battery level lowered at 30%, I plugged-in the charger.
Completed the recharge, I used the phone as always.
At night, with 30% of battery level, I plugged-in the charger and I went to sleep.
The next day, in the morning, I turned on the screen and the battery level was 32%. I was confused... So, I un-plugged the charger, plugged it in again and the phone needed just few minutes to fully charge at 100% (very weird).
Then I normally used the phone for the entire day.
At night, with 30% of battery level, I plugged-in the charger and I went to sleep.
The day after in the morning I turned on the screen and again the battery wasn't fully charged. It was only 34%.
This time I unplugged the charger and I restarted the phone. After that, it showed 100%. So, in reality, the battery was fully charged!
This made me think it could have been a software related problem: so, I performed a Wipe-Cache-Partition and a battery re-calibration process.
After that, I noticed the charging process was slower, although the phone shows "Super-Charge" in the lock-screen.
So, I wanted to monitor the charging process with Ampere and this is what happens:
- as soon as I connect the charger, for the first few seconds the charging rises to about 4000mA (as it should);
- suddenly the charging stops, as if I disconnected the charger. At the same time, the battery temperature rises for one second to 44/45 ° C and then quickly returns to 32/34 ° C.
- after a few seconds, the phone starts charging again, but at 1600/1700mA.
- cyclically, therefore, the phone tries again to increase the charging to 4000mA, but, as soon as it reaches the peak, the same phenomenon described above is repeated.
I noticed that the charger overheats while charging.
I replaced the USB-C 5A cable, but the problem persists, so it's not cable related.
If, on the other hand, I use a non-5A USB-C cable, the phone recharges in FastCharge mode (2A) without interruptions and the charger does not heat up.
So, the problem exists only with SuperCharge.
Do you think the charger is defective?
Or is the new battery defective?
I thank in advance anyone who will help me. :fingers-crossed:
I noticed a similar problem with super charge.. When plugged in for charging, super charge doesnt show.. It takes super long to charge to even 50%.. So i tried other cables as well and same issue.. I restarted the phone a few times and then switched it off.. Plugged charger in and left it over night. I noticed the next day super charge was functioning correctly
