X8 stops charging if in use - XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

My X8 will stop charging if I am using it while it is being charged. If I have it on charge with the wall charger or PC and then start to browse the net or use an app, it will charge for about 10 minutes and then stop. The charging battery icon reverts to normal and the phone discharges as it normally would if not being charged.
Is this normal for the X8? I notice that the battery is slightly warm when it stops charging. Its like there is some sort of heat sensor that causes charging to cease when the battery heats up a little. If I just stop using the phone charging recommences after it has been idle for about 10 to 15 minutes. Charging recommences even without disconnecting and reconnecting the cable.

Battery problem HD7

Hello everyone ....
I have a problem with charging the battery on my HD7...
When I leave the phone on the charger overnight ... the morning shines green light 100% battery, but after a few minutes show a lower value ... eg 90%. During the day, the battery drain is normal.
When the phone on the charger during the day and when the battery is charged (quickly turns off the charger) ... there is no effect of the rapid discharge of the battery. The battery is drained properly.
I concluded that the charger charges the battery to 100%, and then turns off. The phone starts to use battery the rest of the night. The phone is still on the charger. I think that is not normal behavior of the phone. My Trophy has not worked in this way
I use Nextgen 2.0 rom. and battery status v4.1.0
I wonder, the battery is bad or the software or something else.
thank you

No need, look at the bottom of his post - he fixed the problem with a new charger.
I had similar problem, changed to new one.
when u leave the phone on the charger overnight, what happens is that th ephone fully charges. to 100 % and then the charger shuts off. but the phone runs on fthe battery especially if u have the radios or wifi on but the indicator thinks that its still on the charger ...but the wifi radios ect is using the power
when u unplug the phone, the battery drains down to actual level aka rapid draining
I think battery or charger should be the problem but probably battery. pretty cheap on ebay

charging problem

So i've had charging problems on and off for a while but last night was weird. So I charge my phone on my 2.0 car charger but the battery percent goes down, then i get home and attach it to a 1.2 wall charger that usually will charge it. I wake up and my phone is completely dead, i did check the icon and it was charging when i sat it down.. I then disconnect the charger and plug it back in, after about 10 seconds the screen changes to a charging icon on the black screen.
I can maybe understand an app draining my battery or maybe my car charger not putting out enough, but for it to not charge when it dies is strange.

Check what mAh it is pulling in when charging. Download "Ampere" from Play Store. It will also tell you how much mAh is draining when it is not plugged in.
I had the same problem when I had damaged (cheap) usb cable.
try to change it.
Also you might have dust in your phone port. try to clean it carefully. (youtube videos should help with ideas how to clean it)

Phone and charger damaging data cables

My phone is behaving weirdly.
Whenever I use the original fast charger to charge the phone, the data cable stops working from next charge onwards. It's damaged 4 cables so far.
Sometimes it doesn't charge despite being on charge and showing the same status. In fact the battery keeps discharging (e.g. put on charge when battery was 57, it becomes 53 despite showing charging status)
I know going to service center is the last resort. If anyone has any suggestion, please share.

Please observe the attached screenshot. Despite the battery showing plugged in on status bar, the CPU Z shows battery is not charging.

Charging issue

I always put my cell phone to charge at dawn, and when I wake up, my phone is around 75%.
Fast charging is disabled when it reaches 70%, but if I reconnect the cable, the phone charges completely.
Does anyone have this problem?
PS: Arround 2 week of use, charger and cable are the original ones.
Try replacing the cable
About charge percentage maybe it's kind of reporting mistake. Let the phone reach 1% then charge it to 100. Check if there's an app running in the background constantly.
If the signal strength isn't the best in your area try enabling airplane mode before you sleep and watch the battery usage then.

Question Battery Charging problem after recent update

I recently updated my phone to CPH2173_11_C.48 (April 2022 Security).
When the phone is on the fast charging shows but the battery % does not increase, in fact the battery drains when used.
The only way I can get it to charge is by first connecting the charger and then turning off the phone. After it starts charging (and the charging % increases), I can then turn the phone on and it charges properly even whilst using the phone to watch videos.
The only thing I have done recently is to update to the latest firmware.
Any ideas what the issue may be?
If you do the above process then unplug and plug straight back in, does the problem replicate?
Does it only happen below or above a certain battery%?
It happens on low and high battery %. If I unplug and then plug straight back the problem replicates
Noticed something a bit weird, I connected the phone to my PC and it is charging slowly (normal charge, not fast charge). When plugged into an outlet, it shows fast charging but the % does not go up (unless the phone is off).
Could this be a software issue with fast charging? Any way to fix other than to try factory reset?

The culprit looks to be fast charge at lower battery %. I can slow charge at lower battery with the phone on and fast charge at higher % ( around70% +). Whilst off, fast charge works at any % battery.
Could this be software or hardware issue. Problem persists even after factory reset.
