[Q] Question about x10's battery problem - XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So today, I am trying to wake my x10 again one more time and I try to plug my old x10 to the wall plug and it's not even charging at all. No red blink. Then, I try to plug to my PC and the red blink turn on, taking forever to charge. I did charge this morning before I leave to school and when I came home, it's still doing the same thing again. I don't know how I can fix or turn it back on like I did before. Please help and the charging problem too.

Did you try to wipe battery stats in order for the phone to refresh the battery percentage again? Did you try a different wall plug?

Yes, I did try the different wall plug. Also, I can't turn it back to recovery to wipe the battery stats because it start to take very long time to charge.

Hi sir, do you have time? I cant figure out what is wrong with my x10. When i try to flash those Generic Stock Rom, i get to have errors flashing. It aborts sometime when flashing system.sin and other sin depending on the tft file... i dunno what version my phone is but my pc detects it with flashmode. When im using Seus, it fails flashing in about 90% of the process... when booting my phone, just a quick vibrate with green flashes once. Do u have skype account? Hope u have time and can help me. Most of the links in xda our outdated. And i know my phone is outdated too. Thanks and more power

[Q] What does three red led blinks mean?

Hi all.
My phone seems to be broken. It's almost completely dead. When I press the power button the led blinks red three times. When I connect it to power it blinks red once every other second. Anyone knows what this red blinking means? I'm sure it's a code for something...
I've tried removing sd and sim and also disconnecting and connecting the battery cable with no result. Anything else I could try or is it just a matter of sending it away and being without phone for some weeks?

Battery is completly drained. Charge it about half an hour and should work.
Yeah, I've been pretty scared too when this happened for first time to me. It is really weird behavior. Atleast it is working again.

Yep, you're right. 20 minutes and the phone came alive.
Is it just me or did they completely miss this out in the manual? Could have been worth mentioning if you ask me...

i've had this too... is it ok to charge via a PC or does it have to be directly from the charger?

HELP
my phone can´t charge anyway.... i let it charging in the wall during all the morning and "nothing"... even a minimum led light...
so i connected to the usb in my pc and the led started blinking once in each three seconds...
blink + 1 + 2 + 3sec AND REPEAT
so... i let it in usb for maybe 40 minuts... and.... nothing again... nothing changed and the led continuous to blink at the same way.
so, i tried to plug again in the wall, and no led light, but suddently led blinked this way:
blink / blink / blink + 1 + 2sec and repeat three times so stops, no more lights, and it happend again if i tryied to power on the phone...
and now, nothing happens.... no lights... even i fi try to power on, even if i plug in the wall...
mini pro is dead.
i don´t know what to do
tried pressing home + power buttons for minuts and nothing
tried pressing back button for minuts and nothing
tried to connect to PC companium and nothing, no phone connected
tried using SEUS but it can´t connect to the phone as it has no battery charge
any ideas.... please?
and let me know... is this any issue from the ROM? i just installed CM7Mini V7... it´s the first time i had the battery drained... so i ask... if there is a way to awake my mini, will the same issue happen again ????? I can´t forget the battery draining?????
HEEEEEEEEEELLLLLPPPPP
3 blinks mean not enough battery energy to boot. Maybe your USB port is just brocken...
Try using FlashTool to flash a stock ROM to see if it works, because with SEUS first you have to connect your phone to be recognised and afteerwards updated or repaired. Maybe FlashTool is the solution...
I have made a post with instructions and links to flash with FlashTool. Just search for
2.1.1.A.0.6 GREEK .ftf
Another possible solution is what guys have mentioned above... To let it charge while it seem dead and it'll be alive in some minutes.

(you probably meant no offline charging)
It really doesn't matter... I have tried almost every single ROM. And dryed the battery completelly, but I was always able to charge it.

I dont know what was wrong but phone now works like a charm. I dont have that phone but my friend does and it didn't happened again

Not sure if this did the trick, but after I had the battery out for about 5 minutes, it started after inserting back.

Phone bricked, cannot charge, need help ASAP

I need help with this NOW if anyone can. I figured I'd go ahead and make a thread for it so it would get seen. I was trying to update to 2.1 and something went wrong. Long story short the battery drained and now even when it's plugged into the wall all it does is flash its little red light. If I can get it to charge I think I can get things working again but as it stands I don't even know if it is charging. If I have it plugged into the wall and remove the battery the led turns green. If I put the batt back in afterwards it will go off after a bit and eventually "turn on" (in this case that just means that the screen comes on but is completely black but backlit) but there is no led indication at all so i don't know if it's charging or what. It doesn't seem to be. I really need help asap. Thanks in advance.
Silly question perhaps.. have you tried putting it into flash mode for SEUS (phone off hold back key, plug in USB cable)...?? does it register the phone?
Open pc companion hold back button and insert the micro Ian until it says stop it should then tell you your software is already the latest but if there's a problem you can use the repair option. Hth

Tried it just now, nothing.
My suggestion would be to plug it in for a few hours then try again. Or take battery out completely and try the back button without a battery. Might work. Might not. Sorry. Doubt the phone is bricked tho.

Just out of interest how long have you left it on the charge for? Because the red light flashes while charging until 10% and I remember once when my battery fully drained it did that for a few minutes until phone turned on again. Leave it for a while if you haven't done so.
The reason I ask is, incase you saw red light flashing and took it off charge straight away thinking its faulty? Like I said it sometimes takes a while to turn on fully when battery has died.
Edit: I know this is unhelpful, but that's why when you update via SEUS it says to ensure battery has 50%

I got he same problem 3 weeks ago. i could not get the phone to boot anymore even after trying all the unbrick method available here. so i sent it to sony ericsson service and they changed the motherboard.
okay, been charging for a while now and still have the red light. Pretty confident it isn't charging.
Plz try another usb cablr. I know about 20 people whoms usb cable accidently died and the phones cannot charge anymore ....

But the phone won't even boot. Will the battery charge while it's off? or when it's on a black screen? I know 2.1 lets it charge when it's off now, but the OP said the update screwed up.
Other suggestions that may take some time:
1. Find someone else who has an X10 and charge it in their phone.
2. Bring it to your phone provider and ask them to charge it.
3. Bring it to your phone provider and exchange the battery (temporarily?).
4. Buy an external wall charger (one that lets you charge the battery directly, not in the phone).
I ended up bypassing the phone and charging the battery directly via a macgyvered usb cable. Don't ask. lol. But I got it charged enough to use the se update tool and restore it back to the original rom. I'll try the update to 2.1 later after I get this thing charged all the way up. Thanks guys.

i experienced the same issue last week...
now i recovered the phone.
First recharge the battery by wall charger. led will turn green instead of red... beware,,, insert battery after you plug in power cord.
second open the back cover, unscrew the screws, you can find the video from youtube to guide you... in my case, one of the connectors was not sitting well.
try it again... it will flash smoothly normally only takes 4 mins to done the whole processing... make sure you have full charged battery during the update.
i am recharging my battery with battery charger now
and i just finish unscrewing my phone and reconnecting all the connector and cleaning the USB and the battery connector
lets wait and see
fully recharged battery and all well connected connector and nothing
so tomorrow i will go for serves ????
I ended up buying an external Battery charger, works well.
I have the same problem here!

[Q] Xperia U Hard bricked (I think) need help :(

~Help~
I plugged in my phone to the wall charger (because my phones battery was low not dead..) and when i checked whether it had charged after about 30 mins.. My phone DIDN'T respond.. my notification LED was flashing (Which means that my phone wasnt dead.. I pulled out the battery and put it back in right away.. My phone didnt boot up.. :crying: i pulled out my battery a couple more times thinking that it was a lose battery fault or something but no.. A few hours later i tried searching online for help.. I read some posts which had been posted on XDA saying that if your phone is soft Bricked u have to flash a new kernel and etc... i tried to boot my phone into Flashmode, it didnt respond. Not even fastboot mode.. When i connect my phone to a USB cable.. the notification LED gives out a red light and after 10-15 mins it goes off.. Its been almost a week now.. And Yes i've unlocked my Bootloader and rooter my XPERIA U. If you guys know something that i could do to get my phone back up and running again.. please tell me.. thanks in advance
I need to know which kernel were u using... may be kernel doesnt supports offline charging...
I am not sure whether its a hard brick... coz phones just dont brick themselves
Okay u can do some crazy things..
Try charging the phone via a wall charger... keep it for atleast an hour...
If it doesnt works...
Try wid a usb charger... connected to a laptop or so...
After this pull off the battery... keep it out for 10seconds or so..
Insert battery
Dont try to swtich on ..
Try connecting in fastboot mode ....

I was using Unofficial_StockJB_XU_V6 :good:
I tried charging via a wall charger for about 7 hours now :silly:
i'll try to charge with a USB charger connected to my pc.. Fingers crossed.. BTW
How long should i charge it i mean.. Do i have to wait for a sign?
(Like, the red charging light from the notificaton LED)
(the Red LED just turns on when i plug in the Wall/ USB charger and goes off after 10-15 mins)
or would the phone turn on by itself?

Remove the battery and leave it that way for an hour and then press and hold the power button for 60 seconds (without the battery)
and then insert the battery and try to enter the flashmode and report you might get it if it is not hardbrick.
prepare the stock rom in flashtool before you try to enter the flashmode in your phone....:good:

This happened to me today. Last night I left my phone charging on my PC through the USB port. PC was off, but USB is still powered. Phone was on.
The next morning, after I woke up I noticed that when I pressed the power button nothing happened. I plugged the cable off my PC, then back on, and the led was staying lit up red. Nothing when I pressed the power button again. No fastboot, nothing.
Finally, I plugged the phone using the original Sony adapter to the mains. It showed the Sony logo and it started charging. At least, so I thought. After a couple of hours, I checked the charging progress and nothing, battery was showing empty. So I tried to power the phone on while still charging. It booted Android and it was showing charging, but 0%. I powered the phone back off, it immediately started charging and battery progress was about 80%.
My guess is that somehow battery stats files were corrupted/deleted. Luckily the phone did not get bricked. I am on Android 4.0 ICS.

It seems XSola has issue with this. My previous phone which is Xsola did suffer from this issue multiple times though. On my ex-XU (too) never had this problem and in my current XP i've had once.
