Sudden power off - Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi I posted about power drain and sudden power off. I have ordered a new battery. But, more info I've just noticed that the phone only powers down when I connect the wireless charger. At no other points have I noticed it. Could it be a different issue rather than the battery?

Hey i have the same problem my phone turns off suddenly when i play pokemon go or when i open google earth app!! My battery level doesnt matter! İt just turns off! Doenst turns on till i charge it! When i charge it it becomes charging at 1% then when it is turned on it continues at 60-70%! İ changed my battery btw!

That's got nothing to do with the battery. That's your phone crying out for help. It doesn't want crap games installed on it.

[Q] Help!! Battery issue with Xperia TL?

Hey everyone. I was hoping that somebody could help me out with an issue that has just happened..Every night i plug my xperia tl into a wall charger, and turn it off. then i usually turn it back on when i wake up in the morning. This morning however, my phone wouldnt turn on. I unplugged it, then tried turning it on but still no luck. I plugged the phone back in and it turned the screen on showing the batter had 0%. I waited a few minutes then turned it on, and it worked, but i had like 1% battery. Basically i had my phone off all night, plugged into a charger and i woke up and the battery was dead. I've tried restarting it thinking it was a battery calibration error and that it might reset it but it still had a dead battery. Also when i restart my phone it usually resets the battery usage chart but it wont reset. Also on the graph it shows a sudden drain of the battery. the battery was at like 30% then went right to 0%..anyone else have this issue? And could anyone tell me how to fix it?? Thanks!
Okay, a little but later i tried unplugging my phone and restarting it again. When i turned it back on i saw a spike in the battery. It jumped from 40% to 55%...then when i plugged it back in it went back down to 40%...is there something wrong with the batter calibration? I just cant figure it out..
Another possibility is that the battery is damaged. Despite the charger being off at the wall, there is still a residual current. Connecting anything to an off socket for has always carried a risk, it's how many fires start
The phone actually warns you of this, think about the green message that says also unplug your charger from the wall.
I hope I'm wrong and it is just calibration error. Good job it's a tl with removable battery.
Should be able to get sorted under warranty though if it's not unlocked just say it wouldn't turn on.

TL doesn't have a removable battery.
I am also having issues w/ my battery draining very quickly after little to no use. when i check the battery usage it says the ebay app is using most of the charge but I never even had it open (I FC it), and now its saying the screen is using 54% of the battery even though the screen was turned off. whats the deal?

Xperia z Wont charge after battery drain

hi guys,
i have a xperia z c6603 with latest firmware. Last night i installed few live wallpapers after which phone got extremely hot ( especially from upper back side), I turned it off restarted it but battery still drained quickly. I decided to let it drain and i will charge it 100% after that. But when it turn off i could not turn it on again no matter what. The red LED light lights up when i plug usb cable but nothing more than that. its not heating up as well. i have tried power button + volume up trick but no use.
Please help coz i am damn scared if my 3 days old phone is already dead!
Connect the original wall charger and leave the phone for an hour then try to turn it on again.
If the phone boot,do a factory reset.

Ok th is strange. My xperia z Drains battery even if its powered off! can anyone explain me this why this is happening. now my phones battery is at absolute zero and i cant turn it on!
same problem with my Z

C6903 No longer charging.

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...

Red light and nothing...

Hi guys,
I have a very strange problem. My Xperia Z was discharged and when I was connect it to charger the I've got permanent red light. Even after disconnecting from the charger the red light still occurs. I cant turn on the phone!! Please help!!!
Just keep it on the charger for a few hours,it should spring back to life:laugh:
This happens cuz there isn't enough charge left in the battery for the screen to turn on(maybe,i think so) and show the battery meter.When it gets recharged to a certain level(around 1%) it will hop back to life.
Yes, true. Strange bug...

How do you guys leave your watch overnight?

So last night I left it on and battery drain wasn't terrible but I don't think it was good either. So I figured since I'm obviously not using it at night, I should turn the always on display off. Don't need it than so what's the point. Then I decided, why not disconnect it from my phone and than just tap the reconnect button in the morning. Wouldn't be an inconvenience at all either. So I'm sure having the display off will help, but not sure about the disconnecting part but still leaving the watch turned on. Anyway, just wanted to hear what you guys all do with your watch at night while you're not using it.
Mine sits on the charger. I don't turn it off or disconnect it from phone. When I wake up, it is fully charged.

I turn the always on display to off and turn flight mode on. However, it would be great if there was a scheduler that did it automagically.

To get the best battery life out of this thing is to charge it at night... Or else you might get oit of juice before the day is over depending on how much notifications you get...

thanks for all the responses. I guess I can just make it a habit of plugging it in at night along with my phone. And if not, definitely turning the screen off and placing it into airplane mode. Cause the watch charges in 2 hours and like 10 min. Tried it out yesterday so it's pretty quick.
Mine easily lasts two days, really only on charge when battery is nearly dead. Sometimes on charge if I decide I'm not going to be wearing it for a bit and there is a charge close by. Takes no time to fully charge and uses even less battery just sitting connected than wearing it while wrist action setting is on
