Thanks , i pluged it and now i'm waiting...
It's still dead after 20 minutes.
It doesn't anything when i press the turn on button.
No leds blinking...
Any suggestion?
I don't know what to say, I woke up with the exact same problem!
It's not turning on, not showing any sign of life and the AC adaptor heats up but the phone doesn't do anything. I'm pretty sure my battery wasn't in low level, but it's not turning on at all.
SOLVED!!!
I press Power and Vol+ untill feel three vibrations (about 10-12 seconds).
Then you can start it normally.
Sorry for double post guys, I think I have found the solution:
Hold the volume UP and press power button at the same and you should feel a vibration.
It will reset your battery and start up your phone. Hope it works for you.
HAHAHA, one minute late that's hilarious.
Anyway, great to have to problem solved.
xPERIA p doesn't ON after complete discharge

Good to see you happy . i have xperia P and i faced the same problem last night when my phone turned off because of dry battery, then i couldn't able to power it ON, My orignal charger is dead beacuse i was using my charger on UPS, consequently the capacitor inside the charger burst and started to smell. then i bought HTC charger 5V 1000mAh output, but i took alot more time about 3 hour for 100% charge, then I returned that charger back to shopkeeper and replace another one that is 5V and 750mA and amazingly it works awesome, take 1 hour to charge my battery 100%. well i was telling about my phone it was dead last night, i put that HTC charger wire into my phone for half an hour but still it was dead, then i took out charging wire and then I connected my fone with pc for about 15 minute still dead i was very much disappointed last night, suddenly my fone screen ON and charger icon appeared on my screen, i was very happy that time, you know what happened, i wait for atleast 15 minutes but the charging percentage was 0% and didn't increase. Then I press power and volume up button (HARD RESET) and after hard reset my phone charging percentage was 16% from 0%. What will you say? Isn't it a company fault, SONY mobiles are very less stable, even in XPeria P I cannot remove the battery. GUYS IS THAT A HARDWARE PROBLEM OR SOFTWARE, DO U THINK JELLY BEAN UPDATE WOULD RESOLVE THIS PROBLEM NOT ONLY THIS I CANNOT EVEN LISTEN TO MY RADIO AS IT DOESN'T RESPOND AFTER A RUN. AND IT DRAINS MY BATTERY VERY FAST, EXCEPT THESE ISSUES XPERIA P IS AWESOME . BUT NOW HTC HAS INTRODUCED HTC ASPIRE ITS HAVE SAME NOT ONLY SAME BUT MANY MORE UPGRADED FEATURES INSTALLED FOR JUST RS 25000 COMES WITH WARRENTY WHERE AS SONY XPERIA p IS 27000 RS WITHOUT WARRENTY. AAHHH!! COMMENT PLEASE

Coming from an iphone 4s to sgs2 and now to xps... Man... Charging is a pain for andriods phones... Xps is a great phone.. But got to get use to the slow charging and lousy battery life...
How many time since you first turned on your XS?
If you say something that is less than 2 weeks, man, you gotta be kiddin me.
I'm gonna create a topic with capital letters to everyone who is complaining about the battery. You're making storm for nothing.

Mine is fine and i have had mine for 2 days
I got mine a week ago and the battery life has improved and it charges up quicker over the week.
Just use for a while and it should get better.

My phone takes about 2 hours and 20 mins to charge from 5% to 100%. That's pretty decent, isn't it?
It does charge slowly if you keep the screen on and use its multimedia functions, as I suspect the drain is substantial, but if simply on standby, mine charges reasonably quickly.

lol i used a tablet usb port and it charges from 15%-100% in around 90mins

I use the bundled charger and it takes 1hr 15 minutes from 0 to 100. MUCH faster than the iPhone4 I used to use.
For the first week the charging is very slow, then it will go faster, same for the battery duration, I think it' just a battery calibration ^ ^
I charge XS with 2A-output charger
and Modify Micro-USB Cable ....D+ / D- 2pin short
The Cable only have Charing Function
now XS can enable Quick-Charing...Charing with 1.4A

SE EP850 Charger
Ya, mine no longer charges from PC USB when PC is sleeping. When PC is awake the charging is way too slow. My old HD2 could charge fine from PC and this saves me from having to plug in its dedicated charger to power socket.
Hmm, im reading that most of you get a full charge, from 0%, in just about 1 hour. Mine is taking 2 hours, why is that? I've had the phone for a week.
EP800 charger maybe?

I believe you can pull from 100 to 400 mA from the USB port on a computer.
And the wall charger should put out at least double that. So ofcourse a charge will be slower when you can't pump as much juice into the battery as you can with a dedicated wall charger.
You can on some mainboards let the USB ports stay alive while the rest of the system is a sleep. But sure it's only logical that when you put your computer to sleep, so will the USB ports.
HD2 is able to get charged through USB when PC is asleep, but not XS. For those who're interested.

I'm not. But maybe the HTC HD2 users will care.
So I took out my sd card this morning and realized I had been using my replacement battery not the original one that came with the phone. (They are both the same official samsung battery, I just marked them so I know which is which) Later on this evening my phone was at about 45% and I decided to switch batteries because I had opened it back up to reinsert my sd card. I start the phone back up and my 2nd battery, which I always keep at 100% as a backup, was showing only 81%...
I thought this was odd since I put it on the charger for about a half hour every few days to make sure it's fully charged before I start the day just in case I need it. Anyway, I forgot about that quickly and set my phone down on my desk. About 5 minutes later I get a text message, unlock the phone, and low and behold the battery says 83% (and no it was not plugged in all day and had not been charging!) Has anybody ever seen a phone "charge" while it's not plugged in before? It went up to 93% and then finally started to die. Slowly increasing every ~10 minutes give or take. I even have the screenshots to prove it was "charging" while not plugged in.

The only time I've seen a battery increase it's charge is when the temperature of the battery changes rapidly.
And perhaps if a cell bridges over ..
But that's usually reserved for lead acid type batteries....not lithium ion cells..
You have taught me today ....as this is a first for me ....
And I wouldn't be surprised if the battery is starting to fail ...so watch it to prevent any possible device damage.....g
Um. No. What you're seeing here is recalibration as the phone adapts to the other battery.
So you changed batteries while plugged in ??
Ah yeh, that explains the battery charge increase, as the new battery takes over, and the cycle record was not reset because the phone still has power...
battery is fine......my bad....g
I've had that happen before, and I only use OEM batteries with my phones. Like somebody else said its just a software hiccup where it's recalibrating. I've had times where I've pulled a battery to flash something at like 50 percent battery, when I boot back up I have like 10 percent showing, and it will slowly increase back up to like 40 percent. Its happened a few times and there's nothing to worry about.

No the phone was not plugged in. And I've switched batteries before without this happening. I know its not a problem I've just never ever watched a phone "charge" itself

Sounds like a battery stats "hiccup" to me, when you rebooted after swapping the batteries it thought that the battery was the same, so it just kept polling like normal and reporting the "new" status. But i think that when a battery is inserted like that, I don't think that it can instantly report what the exact new voltage/Mah so it pretend charges like what you reported. AT least that's the most logical thing i can think of. My extended battery would "charge" like that sometimes if I battery pulled for some reason...

XDA is no longer worth my time.
Hi guys,
I have had my S3 for 2 years now and noticed this problem for the first time around 5 weeks or so ago. Basically i noticed that it would not charge much after a long period of time charging, and also when using the device the battery would deplete a lot more quickly than what I am used to.
On investigation it appears that I am losing power while charging. I downloaded the application 'galaxy charging' which lets me know how many mA are being drawn etc.
Via mains the reference is always 1098 or around 1amp as it should be and via USB it is 466mA. This app monitors the average current being drawn while the device is charging and i notice that EVERY time i charge via either mains or USB the device NEVER charges at its max capacity (1098mA via mains and 466 via USB)
What i see which happens is as soon as i plug in my charger to mains it will start off close to maximum, around 800mA and then after 10 seconds or so it will slowly come down to say 600mA, a further 20 seconds or sooner we are down to 300mA and eventually it will either settle around this figure if i am lucky so i actually charge my phone (all be it very slowly) but much more likely it will always drop off to 100mA. At this power the phone drains more battery being on than power being given to it to charge so the battery goes down while charging.
Does anyone know what could be causing this?
Troubleshooting attempted:
I have replaced the battery with a new one. I still get the same problem
I have replaced the USB lead, i *might* get a slightly higher stable mA on average on one but maybe this is probably just coincidental
I have tested via mains and USB, the error occurs on both, I have tested mains where nothing else uses the socket and USB on a PC where the only USB port being used is the phone.
I have changed my ROM, I am now using ArchiDroid. I thought doing a complete reset and putting on a new OS might fix this but apparently not.
Right now I am out of ideas and am left thinking this is some internal hardware error, but can anyone else offer any suggestions or has this happened to anyone else?
Appreciate any responses,
James
You could try a custom kernel which allows you to override the charging current, but you may find the charging circuit inside the phone is damaged.
Easy solution if so is to get a desktop charger and second battery.

i had this same problem but simply replacing the cable solved it
i tried nokia cable and now it is fine ,
if that also dosent help than you can try googy max kernel or boeffella kernel and check for "ignore unstable power option"
Get one of these bad boys

Hi everyone, thanks for all your replies. However it was this one that fixed my issue. Since i already had the boeffla kernal on my phone i found the setting to 'ignore unstable power' and since having that checked i now charge at a constant 460mA via USB and 1098mA via mains. Thank you so much!!
Hello everybody!
I have the following problem. Some time ago I hadinterruptions during the charging process. This has become noticeable that in between the screen was flashing up and the lightning symbol as it normally is when its charging was not on the battery symbol. This problem has been getting worse to the point that the device has only loaded temporarily. So almost by luck. Sometimtes it didnt work for hours and then it charged the whole evening. I even had the feeling that it has charged, even though my phone has not shown. The battery capacity increased after few hours. The end was that the phone no longer charged at all. Then I ordered a new charging socket and installed it. Since then everything works fine and I was satisfied.
Today, however, to be exact half an hour ago, I had that bad feeling again. The screen flashed up and the charging interrupted. It was now three times. What's going on here? I hope that it does not become worse. I ordered a new battery on the internet before all these problems came up, which was touted as original. Before changing the charging socket I have tried this with both batteries. Same problem. The power adapter was able to charge the phone of a friend of mine but not my phone.
Does anybody have an idea and can help me? Thanks alot!
Same here mate, now it stop charging completely... Have you found any solution? Tried replacing the charging port, but I was told that it is the motherboard...
If anyone have any idea would be helpful. Thanks!

I have same problem. Phone seems to charge well till 80-90% then, charging interrupts. Before my warranty has finished, I have contacted with Samsung. They advised to restore phone to factory setting, what I did. Nothing helped. I have changed chargers ofc for original one, bought new battery, luck of improvement... What is more I have noticed that my phone consumes battery a way faster than before – I have to plug phone every 6-8h with 3g, GPS and BT on. When I use google maps in my car in spite the fact phone is connected to charger (2A Samsung original one!) phone runs down slowly :/ I am rly disappointed with this phone… Guys did you find solution?
I have two of these phones, and both have developed charging issues after a year or two. I bought two OEM batteries to replace, and still does not help.
Tried various chargers, various cables. Intermittent charging at first, then nothing. 2 bricks.

May be the problem 's in the connection between MicroUSB port and mainboard. I suggest you supply 5V to 2 pin and waitting for full battery. If this solution working, buying wireless charging Pad .

hey all, i got this phone, i was told just a dead battery. put it on the charger and it never charged up. the screen just showed that i needed to charge the battery. i did the power & volume button trick, and the at&t logo showed up, then went back to dead. so i pulled the battery and tested it for charge. it came back 3.5. then i checked the charging port, and the contact part was broken. put in a new cable & port. still showing battery needs charging. got a different battery, still shows battery needs charging. only booting to at&t logo. what can i check or do next? thanx!
@chowceal
May be battery's calibration is wrong. If your phone's Android is rooted then you can try to re-calibrate it. I use "Advanced Battery Calibrator" app - what is attached - to do this from time to time.
the phone is not booting up to be able to use any app.
@chowceal
The phone tries to charge "by hardware" from whatever you plug it into. Then after some time it tries to boot, and part of the boot process will run off the internal battery.
If the charging happens from a slow charging powersource, the charge in the battery will be insufficent to bridge the "no charging" part of the boot process, the phone will shut down again and not resume charging!
So, if you charge from a "faster" charger, that can provide more current, then by the time the boot happens, there will be enough charge in the battery to bridge the gap.
My advice: Use the factory charger and/or a wall charger and not USB.
That is what I would do:
Plug the phone into the factory charger and cable.
Hold down the power button for several minutes (like 4-5 minutes) - The phone will cycle through several booting/charging screens.
Release the power button, then press the power button to make the phone boot.
Plug the phone into a computer or other non-factory charger; it should begin to charge, albeit slowly.
Finally after it has charged over 10% or more, plug it into the factory charger and see if it charges normally.
Important: Never charge over 80%, always start charging when 30% reached.

both batteries were charged up to capacity. but the phone is not recognizing that. so is it a hardware issue, software issue??

My POV: As you are not willing to do as suggested, it is best to take the phone to the repair.
since both batteries were at capacity, i dont see a need to charge them. yes, i could take it in for repair, but im trying to learn to do this myself. o, and thanx for your POV.
and im still looking for an answer as to what i need to test for.
