hey i am experiencing an annoying problem with my status bar, it shows charging when im not, if i have it plugged into pc and disconnect it, the connection icon stays on, various errors with it. not sure if its because i've installed so many roms so often, but i get the same problem with every rom i use, stock, cm7, cm9..... i dont know how to fix it. any help or ideas would be good as i don't really want to have to buy a new phone just yet
thanks

Hi all, just wondering if anyone else has had this problem...
Last week, on a very hot day in Australia (36*C), I received an SMS message whilst the phone was charging....
Anyway, this turned the Diamond on, and it connected to Wifi, and stayed powered up (for some reason) for a couple of hours....
Anyway, the phone was very very hot when I unplugged it, and since then it has been playing up very badly...
The problem has been getting worse and worse, and Now I am at the stage where the phone is almost bricked !
When I switch on the phone, I am presented with a white screen. (It doesnt boot up)
If I power up holding down the Volume Down, Rest, Power Button, I can get into the bootloader screen.
I can even reflash the phone with a new Rom....
If I reflash, the phone may run for a minute or so, then crash, and refuse to power on..... (Same problem as above)
Im reluctant to send the phone off for warranty, as they cannot give me an estimate of if it can be fixed, when it will be fixed, or what day of the week it is.....
Has anyone else had this problem, and if so, how did they fix it ??????
(Im hoping I just got a dud version... I love this phone, but I am hoping this is not a common problem !?!?!?!)
Cheers for any help anyone provides !!!!!
try removing battery for 10-15 and make sure your running a 1.93 rom because 1.37 and older are known for heat issues.
you may have already done this, but its not in your first post and there are order of operations to follow.
hey buddy even i hav the same problem..it just restarts after heating up..and after 2 restarts it doesnt even go beyond 1st diamond loading screen...dont know what to do....
Guys, send your phones back to repaired or replaced. Just explain to your provider what is going on and I'm sure they'll try to help.
yea buddy...i guess so...thats the best way i can get my diamond fixed..
I am facing the problem recently last 2 3 days
my Xperia restarts automatically
sometimes there is 30% to 40% charging left still its shut automatically and never been start.. i have to change new battery
any solution for this or anyway to find the problem?
regards
anybudy would like to answer this please?
I'm having a similar problem...my x1 sometimes shuts down while in the middle of doing something, like opening apps, sliding out the keyboard or even navigating touchflo. I suspect it could be a battery problem, as someone in the forum discovered, having also shut down problems, that his battery is loose and the connectors are not properly met so he stuck a bit of hard paper to fix it, but I checked mine and the battery is not loose. I don't want to spend on a new battery if these shut downs weren't really cause by faulty batteries, so yeah anyone has a clearer understanding on this?
Hi all
I am also having a similar problem the past 2 days and as of now i cant use the qwerty keyboard because just as i begin to slide the qwerty out the screen goes black and the phone need to be rebooted.
I have just changed to Valkyrie 2.4 yesterday thinking that maybe its was software problem with Touch X but the problem still persists. Only difference is that with Touch X the phone would reboot itself.
Anyone else having any similar issues and what would the fix be, or shall i be off to my nearest service provider for repairs?
Thanks
Uhm.. about that problem when you slide it out and the device turns off.. i had that too and i send it in to repair.. it will probably be fixed under warranty, and stock rom or custom rom doesnt matter the problem was still there... and it happend to me 5 days ago..

'When i slide the thing out it sometimes restarts'
I used to have that with the stock ROM so this all might be more software related...
yeah I am having the same problem, No Water Damage btw. i found that if i sometimes in portrait mode if pressure is applied to the top right region, it will shutdown and/or restart. When I slide my screen up to landscape mode it screen is just black. I'm going to contact Sony Ericsson to see what they have to say about this.

It resets when the phone freezes. Sometimes it freezes so bad you have to manual reset.
My phone is doing the same thing but when i slide it up. The screen goes blank and then it restarts by itself. I never flashed my phone so I thought it was a firmware issue. I finally updated to the R3A firmware and lo and behold the same results, but instead it didn't restart, it just turned off or the screen goes blank. I've sent the phone to Sony Ericsson and they told me that I would have my phone back in 7 to 10 business days, but they're liars!!! It's been 13 business days and counting and no word as to whether the phone can be fixed or updates on status other than it's in "work in process". So then I called again today and complained to SE and the result is that they are "awaiting parts and Xperia parts are on back-order". After further probing SE told me that they would call me on Monday to officially let me know what the hell is going and why it's taking so long to repair my phone. I paid $800 usd for the phone and I would expect that their repair service would be a lot better and quicker than what it is! During my wait time for my phone, my PS3 broke down, I sent it in, got it fixed and returned already. That was within a week. There is definitely something wrong I tell you! They just need to send me a new phone!
Sorry about my rant guys, but I'm pissed!!!
My damn phone has the same issue, Until now, this hasn't been repaired for it's crack. And I'm almost out of warranty days, I think I bought it 2md day after the xperia was released. I'll try testing abou the presuure point though. I give you update
I did have the same problem..

Hi guys.
I have a wierd problem my xperia X1 touch screen keeps "failing" every 3-4days ok more explenation:
The touch function on the screen is not working this happens like every 3-4 days then i take out battery over night and the next morning its working 3-4 days again. Now the screen is not totally "failed" when its going into power save mode (the screen darkens) and i touch it it lights up again. Any idea what can be causing this? Oh and ive tried many different ROMS im now on the swedish stock R3AA....something rom and still the same problem, ANY help or ideas would be greatly appreciated.
I never turn it of (see below for explenation) can this be the problem maybe?
Oh and another problem i´ve had since the beginning is when i put in charger and the phone is turned off it emties the battery, seems like i have to charge it turned on, is this normal?
Hope somebody can help me
Sorry if my english is bad
Sounds like a hardware problem.
I'd flash the stock ROM and SPL and send it back to sony for repair because if this is happening everytime you flash then its unlikely to be a problem with the roms your using.
Give sony a ring and they should be able to help.
Yeah, definitely sounds like a hardware problem. I recommend contacting SE for repair. I hope your phone is still covered by warranty.
It is a badly problem,but I never have this problem,so I can't help U,sorry!
I bought a galaxy note n7000 from a friend. It has android 4.1.2 installed. build number is n7000XXLSA.
the problem is wi fi doest turn on.I mean whenever i want to switch it on it seems its trying to get on but fails. The green light never shines on it.
The problem i cant understand lies with hardware or software.
Sometimes the wifi gets connected and then it works like a charm. But most of the times no matter how hard i try it never gets turned on. Ive tried factory reset, restart, removing batter and memory card nothing seems to work. I tried wifi fixer app but nothing happened.
I am not very technically aware of rooting, and how to modify it. But i think from what ive learnt is it is caused by updating from ICS to jelly bean 4.1.2
I dont know whether my phone is locked or unlocked, rooted or un rooted cause im totally new with phone.
Please someone guide me how can i rectify this problem, I dont mind taking risk with my phone but wanna know what all should i do to solve wifi issues.
Plus i also would like to update to 4.2.2 kindly let me know step by step starting from basics how should i go about it.
regards
Go to settings and wi-fi and there when you turn on the wi-fi it should show the your network which is remembered and show read something as authenticating obtaining ip addreas and such.. Just select your netwirk once and click on forget and then try to connect again putting in your network key.. To check if you are rooted or not: you must have an app which saya superuser or su.. You can also download root checker app from market to see if you are rooted or not..

have xactly same problem...upgraded to jellybean but atill prob is same .plz help
I suggest you move on to stunner rom instead. It has all the features of the Rom you are currently using. Stunner is, if I've got it right, built from parts of PA.

Solution found
sorry for the long post but this will work
After three months of dealing with the same problem on my GT N7000 as nashbloom i have found a fix to this wi fi problem.
And I mean WIFI problem. this is not a matter of obtaining a connection, this is a problem where the wifi wont switch on at all.
It trys, to switch on (sort of transition phase) than freezes or fails and turns off again.
Just as I was preparing to back up my phone and take it in to samsung the next day I found a post on a you tube clip saying to clean corrosion built up on wi fi antenna.
Desperate, I tried it,
1. remove 9 screws (dont worry they are all the same size) on back and remove cover
2. with a cotton tip/bud wipe corrosion in top left hand corner (looking at the back of the phone)
3. not knowing what a wifi antenna looks like and having seen no corrosion i wiped everything including the cover.
4. i removed a few connectors and put them back in place.
5. put everything back in place and problem was instantly fixed
I did this two days ago but have had one time where the same problem reoccured, otherwise, perfect.
P.S. This is proof that this is a hardware problem not a software one, but i kind of knew that when i changed every wifi setting on the phone several times
will try these today
I will try these today as soon i get home.. i been looking around for a fix.. I hope these will resolve it

Two months now with this silly wifi issue. Did this trick help with your phone?
I did everything possible trying to solve this problem but to no avail.
Wiped anything that could be wiped on the inside, replaced the USB port board, but wifi is relentlessly disconnecting at random times.
Any idea?

I found something weird.. when the phone is without the back cover wifi works perfect. when I put it back the wifi goes off. ???? I really do not know was wrong with the phone.. (i do not use it anymore).. the only guess is that the back cover pressure something to the board and disconnect the wifi.. I really do not have a explanation.. take care..

Like everyone here, I was having the problem with the greyed out WiFi and also got some practice with flashing firmwares and doing factory resets, backups and restores, all in vane.
I found this post and decided to give it a try, also checking a YouTube video about how to open the GT-N7000
My phone did not have any corrosion, but after reconnecting, i.e. taking out and plugging in again, all connectors to the main board, the WiFi came back to life. That was two days ago. I cannot say it works like a charm, after a couple of hiccups, I just don't trust this phone anymore and I think I had the greyed icon once yesterday when I tried to switch off and on the WiFi.
This experience led me to believe that there is something with the connectors that got loose after my phone has fallen off my pocket a couple of times. If you wear pants that were not designed to carry phablets, this might happen to you as well.
Anyway, a big THANK YOU to atchya for the idea of opening the phone.
Cheers,
[Possible solution]Follow the link how to clean up the connectors
Yeah above solution works. This Is the only way I got my wi-fi to work. Tried re-flashing Rom (downgraded and upgraded) even re-flashed Radio. Finally cleaned up , unconnected and reconnected cables, so far works fine (no greying out of menus etc.) . Will keep you posed
edit: Open the photos in different tabs to see the antenna connectors, they are tagged you will know exactly what to clean
Hello all,
My Xperia was in a serious bootloop that I couldn't fix, not with pc companion not with flashtool flashing stock roms. So I gave up and sent it to the closest Sony Mobile certified repair store, it took them one month to tell me they couldn't fix it, they said they opened it, changed the battery and it still had the same problem so they also gave up and gave it to me, they did say the problem could be the motherboard. I'm now living in Brazil and getting a motherboard for the c6602 is impossible first of all because the phone was never commercialized here (and importing is impossible, it'd take 2.5 months and they'd charge me 200% of the part price, unfortunately that's how Brazil works ). Something interesting that happened is that when I got my phone back they had solved the bootloop issue but they created another issue, the phone starts makes all the sounds the screen turns on BUT all you can see in the screen is the black color, so the backlight is on but nothing shows up.
Could I be able to fix this via software? or the only option is changing the motherboard (or maybe fixing something on it)?
If any of you knows how to fix this I'd appreciate an answer.

How do you know it isn't a display problem?

Because I sent it to sony and they said the problem was the motherboard and the problems the phone's been giving are pretty random, for example at the beginning the problem was that it had random reboot each one with more frequency, it when from that to just work with the ac adapter connected, it went from that to a bootloop of just showing the sony logo and restarting, after I got it from sony the problem is that it boots app (without needing to be connected) it makes all the sounds like it was working perfectly but the screen is ON but black. So because all this I'm convinced it's the motherboard.
I see changing the battery didn't fix your problem.
I think it's so sad that this phone with just more than a year of life are getting this serious problems and sony isn't doing **** to help us. They keps my phone 1 month just to tell me that it couldn't get fixed, they said they changed the battery and all but still the same problem. I've reached a point when I just don't trust sony anymore, I'm getting a galaxy s4 on monday but still I wanna fix this crappy-phone.
Well, in my case it happened out of nowhere, I wasn't doing anything special with the phone..., I'm thinking maybe restoring the TA partition would fix something? I don't know... I found the motherboard for 80 euros in aliexpress
