Hi everyone I`m new to this forum and new to all this stuff
So I hope I post this in right place,becouse I think it coul be solved with upgrading or so (is it really?)
So here is the fact:
I just got used qtek 9100.At beginning it didn`t charge at all.(but when I tested it it worked just fine,until the battery run out of juice)SO I charged it in other ways(my brother works with electronics so he just knew the way how to do it.)
And when I put it it my PDA it shows that it`s charging all the time....well some times-rare-it shows full battery.
And when I connect the real wall-charger-nothing happens
it don`t charge at all!even if the battery is fullcharged or compleatly empty.
So theres question-is it foult of hardware or can it be fixed with some soft?
Thanks for your help already
have a nice day.
.
Sorry for trouble,but i found the way-disabling the usb charging.
Sorry for trouble
No actually disabling usb charging didn`t resolve it.The battery isn`t charging at all!the only way is to take out the battery and charge it in other ways.
IS there any other ways?
i plug in my wall charger,the led light indicating that its charging turns ON.
after 5 seconds the led turns off and starts blinking
COLOR AMBER
ACTIVESYNC works
any clues?
someone please help
the only way i can charge is in BOOTLOADER MODE
which overheats my battery making me putting a fan infront of the phone
Plus its useless in bootloader mode so i am frequently changing the sims to diff. phones

I have this problem all the time. Ever since I started using 6.5 ROMs. Three of Abu's, and damn near all of TPC's gave my phone this problem. I tried some of Josh's and my wall charger started charging my phone again. I have six batteries and tried them all and two different wall chargers before I found out it was the ROM. Changing Hard SPL and radios didn't work. After I flash I test to see if it will charge. My phone just can't handle everything the chefs throw in there.
I have the same problem. my phone no charge any more than 30%, but the display indicate 100%. I have 3 new Batteries and i have the same finish.
I recently bought a used xperia z and have some strange problems with it.
I cant get it to connect to my computers. Ive got 2 that dont detect it but have no issues connecting my old xperia ray, so drivers are installed.
I cant charge the phone unless it drains completely. If i try to charge it while its on it will recognize the charge for an instant then not charge. If its off then itll show the battery icon and all looks normal, but will actually discharge, then charge.
Flashtool wont recognize it at all. No matter what i try, cant get it to connect.
Ive seatched and cant find any help. Im hoping ive missed something.
Thanks in advance!

Bro !! Many of us has this problem. I'm among them. First battery doesnot charge ( charges for 1 second and then shows not charging ) . After some time when battery drains completely it will not boot and not charges. At last u need to connect to charger to boot ur mobile. As soon as you'll remove charger ur device shut's down. It's neither battery problem , nor software and nor hardware problem. It's a charging bug .

I ordered a new battery anyway, it was cheap enough so why not... Anyway when it comes in ill try it out and report back. The problem has to lie somehwere, either mainboard or battery.

If your phone is not getting recognised in your pc... Try changing usb connectivity to MSC or MTP mode... I think maybe MSC mode will get connected to your pc thats ur sd Card only.. Try it and leme know
Your phone, like mine has a defective usb port. At least that is my guess from these symptoms.
replacing the port is difficult and expensive because it is soldered to the main board.
I got myself a dock for charging and make my connections to my computer via WIFI.
Hello!
Yes, it's right. I guess it's my turn to get the sudden death of my beloved Xperia Z1.
It's dead, but I don't think it's completely dead and I'm hoping for some help from tech navy's around here and from other people who got the sudden death issue so here's what happened:
I woke up early in the morning at around 8 am and the battery was at 9% and I had no time to put it on charger because I'm in a hurry, so I said I'll put it on charger in car same as always. I use the magnetic cable that I removed from the dock (cuz my sis lost my charging cable, I have to use my magnetic one every time) and I almost always charge my phone in the car with that cable. The phone was working perfectly so I locked the screen and connected the magnetic charger and the charging light didn't come on so I wanted to check if it's charging.... and found out that it's dead (no charging LED, not turning on, no Power + Volume up vibration, no nothing) so I went back to the house and put it on my mother's charger (Micro USB) and got a red LED light as if it's charging, but it's not. still doesn't power up and everything and yes, I've tried the reset button near the SIM card, nothing wants to work.
I took it to Sony service center later that day and they said it will take 3 days because of the traffic they're having, and I have no warranty because I bought it on release which is more than a year ago. After 3 days, they told me that it's a motherboard problem and it got water damaged (while the last time I put it in water was about 2 weeks before that day, and he saw that the white thing is red) and it can't be fixed pay some money and take a new one (just phone no boxing no nothing) and I said no thanks and took the phone to another shop and he checked it and told me that he can't fix it.
I cracked open my phone and I can't see any water damage in it, everything seems to be perfectly fine. I've tried everything I could think of, everything I read on the internet, but nothing seems to work, and the pc doesn't even notice that I connected my phone, I've tried connecting it in fast boot, and flash mode, but nothing works it just keeps the red LED light on. Disconnecting the batter didn't help at all.
I called Sony service center and asked them if I can buy a motherboard from them and they said that they don't even have replacement parts for any Z series phone because they're not authorized by Sony to repair the waterproof/resistant Z series phones (The service center here isn't Sony, but it's an authorized service center by Sony) so at that point I lost hope to get it repaired.
All that happened back in January, but now that summer is here, I want to fix it somehow. But I have no clue where to start, and I'm not sure how to confirm that it's the motherboard that's damaged. is there a way to find exactly where the problem is? I have a soldering iron and everything needed to repair the phone, all I need is to know where's the problem! I can buy parts off of internet, and I will if I need to, but I'm not gonna buy a whole motherboard from ebay because I simply can't trust that motherboard.
Sorry for the lengthy post, and thanks for any help you'll give.
Regards,
~J2C
Bump
Bump?
leave your phone for a weed and try to charge it . if your phone still led light I think your battery die not your phone .
Your battery is dead, if you have taken it apart already just buy a new battery or buy a micro usb lithium battery charger from ebay and hook it up to your battery (by itself) I posted about my experience here http://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-z1/help/red-led-flashes-charging-solution-t3141345 If you have access to voltmeter you can check the battery voltage, it is like 2.6v or there abouts. Your phone will not charge a battery this far gone.

I don't think that the battery is dead, because:
1- I get a STABLE red light when I put it on charger or connect it to PC.
2- I've tried a method that's said to revive a dead battery on a Z1 (or Z series) and it didn't work.
3- If it was really the battery, then this should've worked! But no, When I connect the motherboard with test point properly connected, the PC just doesn't recognize the phone.

I followed all those methods as well and none worked for me either. Measure your battery voltage with a voltmeter, it is the cheapest way to verify if the issue is battery or something else.

Hello!
I finally got access to a multimeter today and checked my battery's voltage and it was about 3V so I can confirm that the problem is not the battery.
It must be some kind of hardware problem, and I don't think that you really did try the test point fix and you just said yea yea bla bla YOUR BATTERY IS THE PROBLEM! No, it's not.
Any other suggestions?
Thanks!

3v is still to low in my opinion

I've charged it, and still not working.
Bumping cuz I want my good ol' Z1 back
I've experienced a "sudden death" once, it was really scary to me.
I've flashed a custom rom, rebooted and went to bed directly without waiting "android is upgrading" or whatever.
The next day I saw that my phone was not opening. There was no red led to indicate low battery, I plugged to charger for some seconds and didn't see a red light to indicate "charging" so it was weird to me. The solution was to charge it for more than 30 minutes and afterwards it went to 1%! Maybe you should try to charge with the cable like normally and wait for a while

Hope it works! 30 minutes was so long and worrying though :silly:

Nope!
You obviously had a dead battery, and I've already left it on charger for 2 continuous days.
I clearly have a hardware problem. Probably a dead chip as the phone died the moment I connected the magnetic charger.

If u disasassembled your phone then simply disconnect battery, connect phone to pc (with disconected battery) with pressed volume button down, if phone working u should see blue led light (flashmode)-if this happen then your battery is fault (maybe not, try to flash stock rom if u see flashmode), if not then it is mainboard.

I don't think that you actually read the first post, but no problem.
The computer doesn't recognize the phone at all, with or without battery. And I've posted a link a couple of posts back that leads to a "hard brick fix" thread and even that didn't work for me.
Anyways, I just tried what you told me to try, but no. No flashmode, no fastboot, no nothing.

Yes i actually read your post but sometimes phone will not be able to connect with pc if battery is fault, it happens when user have Sleep of death, thats why i say to connect withouth battery to pc.
I have an xperia z1. had it for like 3 months and yesterday all of a sudden the battery started showing like 50 % 4% 90% random numbers. Then it got stuck on 50% and i couldnt charge it. I left it all night the battery was dead. I meassured it and it was 2.78 Volt. I tried to charge it from the dock port of the Z1 . I meassured the voltave coming to the battery when the charger was connected and it is 1.7V . Tried with many charges the voltage doesnt change. What is the faulty part here ? I tried volume up + power button, it vibrates 3 times but still black screen. My status LED is dead so i cant say if it is chargin or not. Also if i press the power button it vibrates 1 time but doesnt power up. What could it be ?
Thank you all
I charged the battery outside of the phone and its working perfectly. Now i know the phone aint charging the battery. Why is it so low on voltage ? Neither usb or dock do charge it normally ? What is it ?
i think charging electronic is broken. maybe it got wet inside somehow or someone has connected the magnet charge cable wrong and damaged it
Battery level change randomly because the batteri cable is loose.. Or u need to change the battery as if u let it be like that it may cause other hardware problem

It is sealed and im very carefull with it. Both charging ports do not work. ITs 0.62V and its too low to charge it. Charging electronic u mean the IC chip ?

I cant find a battery to test it if its the battery fault. But i dont think its the battery cuz if i charge it the phone boots up normally. The problem is that the % is stuck at 50 and does not show charging when i plug it in.

Im saying this because mine and one of our TeamDevElite already experience this issue a few months ago... When we moving the cable the battery level change.. Until spot to one place that it become normal..

could be just the "cabel" (in german its flexband) from charger slot to battery. this is sensitiv to liquids.
but it could be the battery itself. got the same problem while ago with my own Z1, on restard it dropped from 80% to 14% and charging doesnt rly helped.
Im searching for a new battery . Kinda hard to find here in Albania. i will reply here with the solution in case i find any. Thank you guys
