Original USB cable issue ! - Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
I'm reporting that my original Sony made USB cable have some issues:
first charge - all fine new phone was not turned on before i plugged usb cable to do a first charge
second charge - plugging usb cable has no effect on the phone at all i unplug it and plug it again no reaction then i decided (it was very late) to plug it to my nexus charger and nexus cable - it charges fine !
third - i decided to check if the Sony charger is any good so i used nexus usb cable with original charger - all fine phone charges, then i tried Sony usb cable with other devices - nexus 7 is charging, HTC One X is charging then i tried to flex that cable at every part - no effect
now I'm afraid that it is dangerous to use it - i put it in a cabinet and waiting for response from Sony support...

Battery charing issue - pls help!

My motoroid xt720 is having problem with battery charging and usb connection with PC through the phone USB small port:
-2 days ago I restored to original EU rom through this port successfully. Before this point of time,battery charging and usb connection with PC through the phone USB small port was OK.
-then I can not charge the battery and or connect to the PC through the usb cable via phone small usb port. However, I can now still use the same usb cable and port to restoreoriginal EU rom for the phone and use the same charger to charge the battery with external charging pad (not through phone.)
I use another charger with small usb port to charge the battery through the XT720 phone but it still can not charge.
Installing the new customed rom CronosX, but the same problem happen.
So I guess that the USB port on the phone has hardware issues or software issues with the phone.
Can someone give me advice how to check or fix this error? Thanks!

[Q] Wall Charger not charging

I bought a HTC One charger from Amazon, and when I try to charge my phone it connects but does not stay connected. Any ideas what I can do to get the charger to charge my phone?
Well. If it's a 2 piece charger, usb and converter unplug the Usb and connect it to ur pc. Does it connect? Or try a different wall outlet. Try it on a different device. Most likely it's defective if nothing works

Z1 4.4.2 (.757) Won't charge via USB

Hi guys,
I've been running Z1 4.4.2 (14.3.A.0.757) for some months now and have been working around this issue by using the connection points + adapter to charge my phone. I thought i would come and see if there had been any updates but .757 still appears to be the latest, so my hopes of upgrading to fix are pointless.
When i plug in the standard Sony cable into the phone via the connection under the flap; the phone will constantly "wake" - If i try to turn the screen off it will constantly turn back on. The phone will not charge.
Phone charges without issue using the connectors on the outside.
Summary-
Phone won't charge direct by cable (standard wall adapter)
Phone charges fine using connector points + adapter
Any ideas?
If you connect the Phone to PC vie USB you can transfer data without problems? ..and it charging from PC?
Plugged into PC
- Screen wont sleep
- File transfer fine; 155mb Transfer in <5 seconds.
- Does not appear to charge

Then is the USB port defective, send it via warranty or something.....oor.....use the Dock DK31 to charge the phone aand FTP Pro for transfer files, at last a good solution.

EDIT:
Or don't waste your money and just use the wall for charge if you need juice.
Derp. That huge oversight. Sorry about that.

The problem is that the OP cannot charge it via USB with wall charger so he have to use the magnetic cable or dock.

[Q] Z3c won't charge on DK48 dock

So, I have the official Sony DK48 dock for my Z3 Compact (no case). The phone will recognize that it is connected to the dock by giving the notification sound, but the battery will not charge while on it. I've tried wiggling it all sorts of different ways, and tried at least 3 different USB cables, but still no dice.
Is anyone else having this issue?
Have you used original cable? I had this problem with some poor quality cables, they were too thin inside for the designed current
plug it in the mains...

With 'mains' you can mean so many things.
I guess you mean plug the cable in an electrical outlet, rather then in a computer. I believe that I had the same issue. (Worked fine in an outlet)
The DK48 will only charge the phone when power comes from the mains. It does not charge the phone when connected to a USB port of a PC or laptop.
Use the original charger and the original cable that came with your phone and the Z3/Z3C should charge just fine in the DK48; that's at least what my does.
Yes all of my attempts occurred while plugging the dock into the AC adapter that came with the phone.
I guess then it seems like its a faulty DK48...
It should work with the original cable, adapter and electric outlet (not a PC).
Why wouldn't the DK48 charge through PC? How does it know? Amperes?
The input from the computer is too low even when you plug the USB to 3.0 port... Unfortunately you MUST use wall charger for the DK48 to be working.

I am a bit late in this thread, but I will post it anyway in case somebody has the same problem. Dk48 won't charge phone while connected to PC, because it checks if data lanes in Micro USB port are used. If they are, charging is stopped. If someone wants to charge phone using dock connected to PC (I for example connect it to my active USB hub, which is connected to my PC) it is necessary to use Micro USB cable, which doesn't use data lanes, just charging ones.
I hope it will help somebody.

2012 Nexus 7 doesnt charge

I have a 2012 Nexus 7.
Previously the usb socket was damaged and when the charger was plugged in nothing happened.
I replaced the usb socket and for 3 months it's been fine.
This week though, it's not been charging.
When i plug I the charger cable, the tablet recognizes it and indicates it is charging - the tablet though slowly goes down in charge.
I have 50% of battery left.
Any ideas?
1) Running what version of Android?
2) Wall charger or USB port from PC?
3) If wall charger - original?
Fixed it. The connection to the battery wasn't secure.
