Hi! I just bought the LG-ND5520 dock (Dual, for Micro USB and iPhone connectors), and when I connect my Xperia T it doesn't charge the battery at all.
In other side, it charges perfectly a LG Optimus Hub and a LG L7, I supposed because of the brand, but, doesn't it have to use an standard current to charge android phones? or is a problem with some Xperia configuration? or Sony personalization?
The dock only charges the phone, it doesn't use the connection for reading files or anything else, it uses Bluetooth for pairing, and that's why I would like to be able to charge the Xperia T when docked (BT really drain up the battery).
I've tried letting the Xperia plugged in for a while and the battery only goes down. When I plug it on the dock nothing pops up or sound, it looks like nothing is connected. I also would like to be able to program actions in the Smart Connect app, but it doesn't recognize the connection.
Xperia T LT30p, 4.1.2, Official Sony JB, compilation 9.1.A.0489

I have a Captivate with AOKP m5. I can not get the phone to charge while in the car dock. The phone recognizes the dock; as soon as I plug it in the phone goes into car mode. I know the charger works. I was able to charge fine while using a gingerbread ROM.
Does this seem like a ROM issue, ICS issue, or kernel issue? I'm not really sure what tells the phone to charge, etc.
Any ideas?
The car charger that came with my phone does not charge it too, the red light turn on, but the phone does not recognize, the connection feels loose.
But the charger from my Samsung Jet (same connector) works ok, and the connection is not loose at the other charger, it's almost firm.
Both chargers are generic.
I would try another charger.
Hi,
I have had my Xperia Z a while and a few months ago I bought a pioneer app radio for my car to use with ARLiberator app.
For those who dont know: This basically makes use of MHL to mirror screen of phone and then bluetooth to take touch inputs from the stereo's 7" touch screen and control as if you were using your android phone.
Everything is working great. However I have major battery drain issues even with apps like screen standby to turn phone screen off.
I installed Doom kernel which enables fast charge, the fast charging works with normal usb on my pc however when I try to activate fast charge with the MHL it just shows "Charging (USB)".
Anybody got any advice to get fast charge working with MHL?
thanks, Will
I have two questions about charging dock:
1) Exist any charging dock for xperia z1 which I connect to USB and can use phone with computer while charging?
2) How about battery, if phone is in dock whole day and many times will be take out and put back - can this shorten xperia z1 battery life?
HI all,
C6903 would previously charge using an official Sony dock cord. Yesterday, however, the phone started making the 'phone flat' beepjng noise (it was close to flat), so plugged into the dock to charge. The beeping continued every few seconds, the screen rotation started playing up (I do have a screen rotation lock that hasn't been a problem) and the phone won't fully charge (the charge symbol is there, just keeps dropping. The error message "the connected power source is not sufficient. The battery is draining faster than it is charging. Minimise device usage while charging" popped up. It does charge VERY slowly if the phone is off airplane mode and the screen is off (it charged approx 30% in 10 hours, this way).
No rogue apps, etc. I reset to factory settings and the problem is still there. Phone charges fine using standard micro-usb.
Here in the NL, the carrier (KPN) send your phone away for minimum 2 weeks (& will not give you a replacement), and they will likely just test with the standard USB charger, which is fine.
Anyone experienced this & any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Adam
sounds like the cable is faulty, probably only one way to find out if you know someone with a dock - or just send the dock back to were you purchased it declaring it faulty
I've had similar issues, I solved it by rebooting the phone and plugging it in using sony usb charger until the charge is over 30%, after I got mine to 30% using usb, it then was able to charge using the dock.
you could check the dock with a multimeter, but there's not really much to the dock itself, so unless it's a broken wire, the problem is with the wall charger which the docks plugged into or the phone
Thanks all. I will check if it is the dock/cable or the power plug when my wife gets home - she also has the Z1.
Thanks again, will keep updated.

Yeah, sadly the cables don't last too long - went through 2 cables up until now and many more to come.
Hi people
I have a Sony xperia SP C5306.
When I connect it with my LCD with a MHL adapter, it works fine except for one thing:
I connect the adapter to the phone, connect the charger to the adapter, and the battery begins to receive charge.
But when I connect the HDMI cable to the adapter, the battery stops being charged (the lightning bolt on the charging icon disappears), and I receive a message that the battery is not being charged.
If I disconnect the HDMI cable, the battery restarts charging.
Have you guys any idea about what's going on?
You need a charger with more mA, maybe 2500mA
