Xperia Sola takes 2 and half hours to charge - Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go

My Sony Xperia Sola takes 2 and half hours to CHARGE. What is this? Soo long? I don't understand. My old 5320 would take 1 hour 20 mins to go from 1% to 100%.
Is there a fix to this?

Are you using the provided usb wall charger and micro usb cable? If so it shouldn't take so long, i don't have this phone but 2 hours doesn't sound right lol

USB wall charger itself. That is connected to the micro USB cable. I charge it uninterrupted and it takes friggin' 2 and half hours. I don't know what to do!

Yes! Of course Sony's official charger that comes with the SOLA.
What charger do you recommend I buy? Only the Socket to USB converter needs to be bought right? The USB cable need not be changed I believe.

Sony's one charges faster than others, this problem you're having doesn't sound normal, maybe its battery related, got a spare?

I don't think Charing via pc will affect the battery life.
Only stressing the phone while charging will kill the battery.

I can't see how charging via usb can do anything to the battery? The standard charger is only a transformer so its at usb voltage for charging
Sent from my LT26i using Tapatalk 2
thank you guys for your comments;
but anyone have an evidence for that? I mean: any one get a issue after charging its phone via USB all the day ? or it's just theories? ..... I'm doing that for many years, and I never get an issue! or maybe because I'm changing my phone every one year .. more-or-less! so if the impact of the charging can comes after 5 or 10 years, I don't mind! anyway the mobile is obsolete after so many years ...
if u read on ur charger (AC) : 5.0VDC , 850mA
while USB plug is 5V 500mA "in general"
this means AC will charge faster and USB will take longer time which may affect battery stats set by android OS..
i passed through personal experience with my arc S
thanks amfirbek92; ... so the problem is maybe due to Andoirdoid! because I started using android only two months ego! ....
I read in the XDA forum, (I'm not able to find the thread!) that android stop charging when the battery is at 100% and start recharging when it became at 90% again and again if the mobile is still plugged to the charger! is it the case ?
if yes, so if I'll keep my mobile plugged to the AC charger all the day, this will not afect the battery ! right ? ...
Something like rom manager, you need root, I'm sure has an option for resetting the battery stored stats etc, so i think it effectively has to learn again. Might be that simple?

that's right..if u use ur cell while it's 100% charged and still plugged into AC u'll see battery will decrease to 90% then restart to charge..anw cleaning battery stats u can find it by flashing a cwm recovery this is useful :http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1596285 here u must reflash back the kernel.sin (be careful to follow instructions)
or an easier way is to flash this one : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1729280&highlight=cwm it's an advanced kernel stock based and has DL recovery (i didn't try it yet )
thanks Ben, .... I've an old x10 pro, rooted that I'm using as a “guinea-pig” to learn more about android rooting, I'll test if ROM manager can offer this option.
thanks amfirbek92 .... for the moment, I'm not ready to root or flash my xperia S, I'm still a noob in android :silly: .... I don't want to break it !!

i purchased it 6 months befoe.
Bro battery charging time depends whether you are using the phone or not... because if you are using it continuously while charging screen n processor drains alot of juice...so it will take alot of time but if phone is in deep sleep it will charge faster...as simple as that..!!

Have you heard about undervolting and overvolting? and if you install a kernel like Siyah you can adjust the values needed to make your charging faster.

But the charging is still limited to 650mA, since the hardware only has three modes.. 90mA which is never used, 450mA which is for usb charging and 650mA which is for charging with an adapter.

[Q] NEO V battery health

Hi,
i want to know what would happens to my Neo v battery health if i put it in charge for a night?
does it get weak?
what about tethering?
what would happen to my battery if i connect my Neo v to laptop for 24 hours ?
my friend says that when mobile charging completes, the mobile switch to power and it's not using battery any more.
is it correct ?
thanks
If you keep your phone charging for that long,I bet your battery won't give you a good company for long!
Also it would get heated,and it can blast as it gets puffed up!
And as for the last question,
If you meant mobile switches to power saving mode,
Then I think yes... Once charging gets completed,it won't keep on charging!

all i need to know is how long time i could use my battery without any damage if i connect it to Laptop via USB cable? (for example using tethering)
isn't it harmful for battery health to connect my phone to a power supply for a long time?
i forgot to ask this , when I'm using my phone with data usage enabled, the back of my mobile get's warm.
is it normal ?
thanks
Yup it's normal as our phone gets a bit heated on continuous usage!
And keep charging only when it drops below 30 or say 15 percent!
A good charge can take upto 3 to 4 hours not more I feel!
(well,I doubt even that much is needed or not)
Sent from my MT11i using xda premium
thanks
but my main question is unanswered.
i want to know
if i connect my mobile to charger, and it completes charging and shows "Charged." message, is it harmful for battery health to remain charger connected to mobile or not?
sometimes if forget to remove the charger, and during nights I'm slept and can't remove the charger.
is it harmful if charger remains connected?
It would affect but not much.... But avoid doing that on a daily
Basis!

I googled a little around and I found this.
If your battery is based on an actual accu generation than it cuts off the charging. If the battery reaches 100 percent than it cuts off the charging process.
As long as it is than connected to power there will be no new charging.
But if you put out the charger and put it in again than charging will start again.

it should be something like this that stops charging when it charged.
my laptop is also the same as this and my battery health is almost 100% after several years.
i just wanted to make sure of that my NEO V is the same.
Charging stops when battery lever reaches 100%, but as soon as it drops ~98% it starts with charging again.
Download this app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=ccc71.bmw it's creating battery_history.txt log file. Check it after you charge your phone for a night.
p.s. I think you need to put widget on your desktop in order for it to save log. Not sure, haven't use it for some time..
my neo v is having weird problem from 3 days.. from 25 % battery is falling down to 1 % and switching off in an instant..i tried wiping battery stats..but invain..anyone having this issue??
How old is your phone?? May b its time to say bye bye to your present battery and get a new one..
Get it out n see if its in proper shape.. did you make any changes in the battery calibration?? Or uv or somthing?? Such changes if not done properly might cause such problems.. experienced it myslef.. so if your are using any battery stats or battery modification app, try removing it and see.. or If the battery is not fit to use then clearing battery stats wont help..
I hope this meets your need..

Open it and look at it.
Read what you(your friend) said in first post, and then check that log if it's true that it doesn't charge once its charged or it does charge every once in a while.

How long does it take you to charge?

about 2.5 hours here from 5%, but I normally just plug it in to the PC over night and that would take about 6-8h? at 500ma from near flat.

Here is a question for you as I brought it up above, would a slow charge from USB be better for the battery than a charge at ~1500ma on the stock Sony chargeror even close to 2000ma from a Samsung/etc charger?
I've seen about 1900ma peak on one charger
Mine take 3.5hours from flat to full.

Hmm, i know @hamdogg knows about batteries and stuff like that. I'm using the stock 1,5mAh(?) magnetic charger, and it charges my battery in about 2 hours. I don't dare using a third party (even Samsung) charger on it, since the risk of damaging the battery is too high. I'm willing to do it after 12 months though, since i have, and other have nothing to losen (warranty is gone).

It should take no more than around 2 hours with an original charger. Use either the original SONY USB (included in the package) or the original SONY 30DK DOCK. Are you using a third party charger? If yes, don't use it.
