I have an Xperia T (for fixing) and It seems not charging the battery, every time i plug it in the wall charger the red led notification show up, then blink, then shows up again. the battery is cold and it doesn't charge
the weird thing is that I unplugged the battery off of the phone, connected the phone straight to usb (without battery) and phone turned off of course. suddenly Sony logo appeared then charging icon appeared as it's charging! but there is no battery, also sometimes it shows up even when the battery plugged in but the battery doesn't charge!!
Please anyone familiar with this issue let me know, if its a Hardware or a Software related.. or something to do with the charging circuit or some components in the mainboard?
thanks for any respond!
i appreciated so much!

Edit: thanks to this post, my problem has been solved. Thanks!
So last night I went from stock motorola 2.2 to this wonderful-seeming version of CyanogenMod on my UK milestone - the install went flawlessly, but now I have a problem - my battery is not charging at ALL.
While the phone was on last night after I charged it, it was plugged in, first to my PC and then to the wall socket. In both cases, the battery indicator had a ? (question mark) on it.
I thought it might have been some weirdness with battery calibration so I left it and plugged the phone in from the wall to charge overnight. This morning, my phone was telling me to connect my charger (despite it being plugged in) and on removing the power cable, it died due to no battery power left within 10 minutes.
While plugged in from the wall, the battery indicator comes up but again just contains a ? on it. The little white light next to the power socket never lights up.
If I plug the phone in to my PC via USB then if the handset is OFF, the white light comes on and around 10 mins later it gets enough juice to boot up. The problem is that when the CM7 software starts, the little white light disappears, the phone stops charging despite the cable being present, and it then dies 2 minutes later.
I know the battery is fine because it was perfectly fine before I installed CM7.
Anyone else experienced this problem and/or know how to fix it?
One thing I did manage to do before it died was install a battery calibration app that I found on xda-developers - this told me that the battery was running at 3267 mV - any idea if that's good or bad?
(and yes, I'm using precisely the same cable/charger I was using before I put this version of CM7 on, so I know they are fine - they charge a friend's SGS with no problems)

Try plugging the phone into the wall charger, without the battery. Try and boot it up and let it boot. Once it's booted up, give it a bit and try and put the battery in and leave it to charge.
What happens if you turn off you phone and plug it in a wall charger? If the problem isn't in your battery it will charge fully.
When you phone comes up, try to disable the 1% battery steps in settings. I got a problem with it, and after disabled/enabled it worked fine for me.
Hope this helps.
On plugging it into a wall charger, the phone comes up with its special battery charging screen (i.e. a fullscreen battery level indicator) - no amount of pressing the power button seems to get it to boot properly (with or without the battery).
I'll see if I can get in and get rid of the 1% steps thing later, thanks for the suggestion

Dude, that was PERFECT.
Managed to get enough juice into the thing to get into the menu for a moment and was able to disable the 1% battery steps option - soon as I touch that tickbox, the battery indicator switches from a ? to the charging symbol and the phone starts charging. Thanks a million!
Nop dude, you are welcome
Looks like my battery is dying. Its not charging, with both power and USB. Orange light is on, charger is working for other phones but mine. Is it a battery problem or the USB connector problem. On the bootloader while phone is charging it shows error that the voltage is low. Please advice
Hi XDA community, i open this thread for know if anyone have a similar issue.
When i connect the USB charger to my Xperia Z, nothing appear, no led and no vibration, seems totally dead, this occur with an original wall charger or with a PC-USB connection, but just when i disconnect the battery of the phone with the USB cable connected to USB PC or wall charger, the red led blink 2 times and become blue if i press immediatly vol+ or become green if i press immediately vol-, obviously immediately after battery disconnection.
With the battery connected no signs of life, seems that if the battery is connected the USB connection refuse to activate, but the strange thing is that without battery i'm able anyway to flash any firmware without problem, but after a correct flashing without error no signs of life and no boot.
I think there something wrong with the battery management, but the battery works 100% because i tested with other phone and work, and i tried to use other working battery but always same problem.
Anyone have this issue or know something about it?
Note I have replaced the battery (battery worked but the unit wasn't charging which tells me bad cable.) Today I had gotten a cable after a long dry spell of not having any money to spare. Plug it in. Unit light turns green, then orange, shows charging icon, then screen blinks and shows empty battery + wall plug Icon. Then turns off.
I suspect the battery is just so dead that it isn't registering as charged. Took the unit apart to plug the charger in with the battery unplugged which caused a red light and blank screen. Plugged battery back in. Same behavior as before.
Do i just keep flicking it on whenever it turns off to hope enough charge trickles in so the internal controller perks and goes 'oh wait I need to do something'?
Edit: Turns on now but it says it's at 11% and not charging. Do i flash cyanogenmod and hope thatdoes something?
So like the title said i have replaced the battery in my P9, with an original battery. It has the same part number and all that. I have noticed that the phone won't charge the replacement battery, i have returned the new battery in warranty and revived another one. Same thing, the phone starts up as soon as you plug in any kind of power source to it , like a charger, but no charging notification. The notification light pulses in rare intervals (some thing of 10 secs or more) but it's not steadily on like when normally charging. And the most vexing thing is : if i replace the original battery it charges. Unfortunately the the original battery now has the bad habit of cutting out on me at random from anywhere 47% or bellow .... The phone is nearly 3 year old now.
Have you given the new batteries some time to charge? Maybe they were delivered to you fully discharged.
First one was on 85% the second on 60% or so. I kept the 1st one on charger for a whole weekend... Still nothing
Have you tried to callibrate the original battery (you say it suddenly drops if below 40%)?
Yes, I have allowed the battery to run down to 3% and the phone turning itself off. Then fully charged it while being off. So the original battery is just plain old, nearly 3y old. The problem is that the phone refuses to charge the new batteries regardless of original charge. Also it turns automatically on when you plug in a charger, not just showing the charge animation. That is not normal behavior.

I've done that after reading you'r message , but i have already done the steps not req root. And i'm not willing to root my phone.
P9 also not charging
Did you manage to find a resolution to this issues? I'm having the same problem with my P9. I changed my battery, and it now won't charge. It turns on ok, and everything seems to be working. When I plug in the charging cable, it makes the sound it usually does, the battery symbol flashes green but instantly turns white again. When the phone is off, plugging the cable in switches it on, but no charge. I've had two replacement batteries, both have the same issue. Also, the original battery is now doing the same. I'm wondering if I damaged something while removing the battery.

I think it's problem in charging IC or port.
Hi all
Had same issue with replacement battery
After replacement battery isn't charging. Problem is in bad connections
(probably from long shelf storage connectors got rusty)
Voltage was fine but temperature reading was way off (very low -2) and phone didn't charge battery
Problem is that there was no error message about battery temp.
After cleaning the contactors battery reading became normal and it started charging
Anybody ever had any solution to this problem? I have the same issue. Battery replaced - not taking any charge. If micro USB charger plugged in - the phone turns on. If it is already turned on plugging in the charger the screen flashes the % of the charge and nothing.
