Hi. Till a few days I have all the time the connection of earphones message. It says they are connected and after it says they are disconnected many times as like off on off on and so on. I see it every time I rewake the phone even if I don't plug them. But when I plug them they work correctly. What could this be?
Try to wash out jack connector. Maybe dust or something.

Ok, so this just started happening the other day, when i plug my phone in to charge (or transfer data for that matter) the phone will start charging then stop, then it will start charging again. It does it like every 10 sec, not really consistent, but it keeps cycling. The cable is plugged in all the way, and i have tried 3 different cables, also tried car charger, pc, and wall charger. still getting this. anyone heard of anything like this, or is my phone just taking a dump on me?
Actually I doesn't even charge with the car charger anymore. :/

Did u try cleaning the pins of the phone where the micro usb plugs in it ?? Try rubbing alcohol with a piece of gauze stuck over a toothpick.
Sounds like some dirt or corrosion may be in there or maybe a broken/loose pin.
I cleaned them this morning, and so far so good... I am hoping that might have helped. We will see as time goes on, but thanks!
I charge my phone via magnetic cable that attaches to the dock connector so that i dont wear out the seal on the micro usb door etc. But I've noticed that if i turn off the screen it comes back on within 5 minutes while charging. Does anyone know of a setting I can change or is this a bug?

I think you can change it in the Smart Connect app
I noticed something else.
I hooked up a MHL cable (Bought long ago for the HOX), to test some response times etc..
And I could not turn of the screen when it was connected (well it turns off, then immediatly turns on again).
Would be nice to know if anybody knows a way to turn it off to conserve battery.
Also I have never used any wireless methods, and am keen to know if one can stream something with the screen off.
This is however a question for a different thread, sorry OP!
I have not changed anything in smart connect, and my screen lights up when put in the dock (just like the Z did).
When I turn it off, it does stay off though.

Most probably it does not snap in fully. I had the same with my DK30 for the Xperia Z Ultra with one of the 3 DK30 docks. Just wiggle a little bit and then it might work continously.
Generally I fear the copper pins will wear out with the time or get slightly corroded so that there will be no full contact anymore. I had this problem with my LG-Smartwatch 5 years ago after 2 years (YES, they had a smartwatch-phone with sim-card and mSD ! already then ! )
Looks like i had to enable smart connect for the dock connection but change all actions to do nothing.

How you do change actions to do nothing?
I'm currently using my magnetic charger to charge, but slideshow on photo album always starts.
My smart connect has been disabled.
Yesterday my phone dropped from about 2 feet until the back cover and battery "opened". :crying:
Then today I realized my USB connection does not work anymore (bye bye mtp, adb)...at least it charges.
And sometimes my sdcard get "removed" for unknow reason, so I had to power off, pull out, put it the sdcard again and reboot to make it work.
....the durability of this device is not that great....
You should buy a case.

My Z1 has started playing silly games, it no longer charges properly! It will be fine for a while, typically ten minutes or so, then it will pop up a warning message saying the connected power source isn't charging the battery. It will then drain faster than it can charge. Last night for example I put it on charge around 7pm with 67% and took it off at 8am this morning, but it's dropped to 3%. I've tried various chargers and cables, the dock, all 3 of my magnetic cables (how I normally it charge anyway) and tried all the usual methods of reset such as holding the red button under the SIM port down. Nothing works. It started around two weeks ago, since then I have flashed another firmware but the problem persists.
My phone is currently plugged into a 2 amp capable magnetic dock plug with the Sony plug that comes in the box. Just typing this message it's drained the battery 9% while on charge, wifi on and network off, screen brightness down and no other apps open.
I've spoken to Sony and they won't do anything, my rear glass is cracked so they won't even look at it and they seem to think it's water damage! The phone hasn't ever seen water so that's a load of BS from them.
What can I do?

Use the normal USB charger

That doesn't work, the problem still persists. That's the first charger I tried when the handset started not taking a charge.

Looks like you need a new device as it could be when the back cracked the battery got moisture (not direct) infected

Greaaaaaaat. That's the last thing I need :-S I've just tried my girlfriends iPhone charger and it seems to charge it, very slowly. I will have to dig my Blackberry out as a back up and see how the Z1 goes.

I have the same problem after updating to KitKat. I'm using dock station too, but not the one that came with my phone (I didn't got any with it).
I put my phone to charge, and after 5-10 minutes it starts to show the message. One time I found my phone drained till 0% in the morning. So, I found a simple solution for my phone. Before I put the phone to charge, I turn it off, wait 2-3 seconds then turn it on. I immediately put the phone to the dock in the boot process. That's the only way I can properly charge my phone.
Hope this will help you...

Hey guys. I've had my gs6 edge for 4 weeks and one day the usb port started to act up. I tried using other usb cabled and it worked sometimes but I couldn't move the phone or it will discharge. And now the phone says power sharing mode is turned on but there's no cable plugged in!! Should I go to verizon and have them replace my phone and has anyone had this problem?
