Magnetic Charging Issue(Blinking after reach 90%+) - Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So, anyone having the same problem here? I already reported this issue to Sony support forum. And yeah, theres alot of people having the same issue like this. The LED will start blinking right after it reach 90% above. Its very annoying to check it all time.
This is happened to me almost everytime i charge my phone. This is kinda software bug, or something to do with rooted or recovery installed? Since i have a rooted and recovery installed on it. Or maybe the problem is with the magnetic cable usb?

Nopee.. Nothing of that sort for me ...

My dad's got the same problem after 80%. He has Z2 running completeley stock, no root etc, so it must be software's fault.

Thats good for u.

Happens to me aswell connected via USB on my pc.

So, i bought a new brand magnetic charging adaptor called "MAGNECTOR X2". This solved the blinking charging issue. Yeah i was right, theres nothing to do with lollipop update or software. ROFL! I recommended for u guys also.
Stronger magnet
More stable
Can be used with all type micro usb cable
Easy to carry
*Search at youtube "magnector x2" for more detail.

No. Unfortunatelly he doesn't have any other charger.
The docking station isn't original, however it was charging fine on kitkat.

I suggest u try with another diffrent magnetic charger, if the prob still there, do a clean install by using flashtool. Hope that will help, since my problem already solved by changing the usb cable/magnetic charger it self.

For your information, charging your phone to 85% or 90% rather than 100% doubles it's battery life cycle (as in amount of discharge/charge cycles it can survive through).This is something you should care about as the back of the phone is not openable.
I'd want mine to blink after 90% :laugh:

He won't buy another cable due to OS bug, and also he won't wipe his data for sure. We will see if the next update changes something.

[Q] Deep sleep on charging

Hi all!
I have an hardware issue with my SGS2 - it always show 'on charging' even when physically not. Everything else working perfect. Everybody knows that phone does not go to deep sleep on charging so my battery drains faster.
Is it possible to activate deep sleep on charging or not? Maybe some kernel relating setting...
Have you tried cleaning the usb port.
What rom are you running?

CM9 for now, but this bug is connected with hardware. I tried MIUI Rom, Sammy - everything the same
Hi,
okay, I've found another thread on this: Phone stuck on USB/charging... very weird
As far as I can see they sent it in because of warranty, maybe you should try that?

AC Charging became USB charging

Not sure if anyone of you experienced this problem before.
It occurred to me that my charging from socket is so much slower than normal, thus I downloaded current widget to check the current that is charging, and it turns out that it is charging at USB speed, and in my Battery information in Settings, it is displayed as USB charging instead of AC charging. However when I unplugged my phone and plugged it back again, it became AC charging, and the current is back to normal at 999mA.
Had exactly the same, then a Rom flash or something changed it back again! No help I know, but at least you know you aren't going mad!
What do you mean? How did you solve the problem? Flash your rom again?

exactly as I said, I'm not sure when it started happening, or when it stopped as I flash quite a bit, and it also maybe linked to the fact that there did seem to be a dodgy batch of charger/cables, but for now mine seems ok, so really don't know if it was hardware or software
Haha yea it's quite funny. I don't know when it started happening too. Weird problem

try a bit of cable wiggling etc.....I have my old S1 charger and that works fine and always has, so in retrospect it may well be the lead/plug

Charging problem!!

From few days my phone got charging problem. Charger connect and disconnect. I checked my chager and cable. It's working fine. I connect other chargers, same problem. Some people said this is a software problam. So i reinstalled my software. But still same problem. Help me
Looks like hardware problem. But first check that there's no dust. Blow in USB once and strongly, but do not spit. If it won't help the only way is USB reparation
Some of sony phones that I had did have problem to sometimes disconecct from charging.You must to clean hole(blowing) in usb cable and next time when you connect phone to charger find one position in he s charging and dont move your phone much or dont move at all until he s full charged.
What to do,you have no better solutions.
Yeah i think so. Not the problem of the charger.
You didn't turn on your phone with charger connected right?

Charging problems with Redmi note 3 special edition (global / pro)

Hello,
I think this is really weird.
After a few days I´m not able to charge my phone anymore.
not on: Aukey QC3, IPhone 5se, motorolla, no name charger, original, my work notebook USB port.
Nothing charge it.
Until I plug it into my home desktop PC.
Can someone explain what is happening?
I think it is a ROM bug, since I could open fastboot and the mi flash tool does detect it. And it is now charging (again) ... this happened the second time now...
Any tips?
strange....
realista87 said:

Yup, very strange. I think I read something somewhere about a similar issue.
Most people think there USB port is broken. But I think they have the same issue but just no PC which works (as noted my work notebook does not work, but my desktop PC does...) it was also detected in in fastboot mode on my work PC (just to low on power to try) ...
I had a simmilar problem (well, I still have). I removed the back cover and removed the battery cables - and plugged them in again. After a couple of tries it started charging again. But yesterday my phone fell and since then I can charge it only via a huawei charger. The Xiaomi one doesn't work. One thing is for sure... If you get a red blinking while the phone is turned off and charging, you must let it rest for about a minute in order to plug in an other charger and start charging again ...

Exactly, but I dont have a huawei charger... Just my desktop pc... which produces basically the same result. So I guess it is a Kernel / ROM issue?

it should be a hardware related problem. I managed to fix it for about 2 weeks, till yesterday when my phone dropped down ....

Hi ,
Some people got this issue fixed by returning back to stock ROM.
You can try that.
In my case the charging port was busted so I got it replaced from service center
Thanks

I was on stock, after the second time I switched to global developer version. Let's see how it goes...
But why should a buster charging port only work on PC? And after that normally? (for a week or so)

Yes in my case no charger was able to charge my phone only USB was charging.
So I went to global dev ROM using EDL mode and then went to service center. They replaced it in 30 mins. Also my charger was not working so they replaced charger as well.

Can you try with MIUI stock ROM and tell if you are still facing the problem? This should mostly be the ROM problem like you said.

Supercharge gone? BLA

Had the BLA-09 8.0.0.148 (C432) and noticed that I seems all my super charger are not that super anymore.. Neither my huawei car super charger nor the provided oem supercharger show up as supercharging when plugging in. Anybody else having that issue?
Same firmware here and Super Charge is still active (Huawei original charger). Do you use the original provided USB cable ?
The superscharge seems to swich on for a while when plugging in, but after a short time (minute, perhaps a few) it switches to normal charge in car and on charger. Also happened on previous firmware.
yep both times it's original Huawei cable. (though I should mention that usb c seems to lose it's catch and pops out easily since a few days)

I have the same problem with 148 with original huawei cable.
Didn't experiment that before.
Holy ****
What can I do?!
Edit : hmm strange it seems it ok again I plugged charger again.
Guys can you tell me how long you charge battery for 50 % please?!
Thanks a lot
Cheers
Your phone is probably overheating.

No it's not
When the battery is is almost drained I charge 55% in 30 minutes. It slows down after battery hits 70% but that's normal.

To prevent overheating the phone may charge slower (like when you use it for gaming and charge it the same time, it's very slow)
It would still display it as supercharging though

A guy on the italian forums is reporting the same after updating to B148!
I would try with a factory reset and eventually a new cable.
Cache wiping worked for me. I now got the car charger we eking again. Will check the home charger tonight.
Quick update. Cache wipe fixed the issue all super charger are now super again.

I experienced this multiple times with my device and it will come back, cache wiping has probably not fixed your problem but time has.
I will bring my phone to a service center tomorrow, I'm sick of this happening over and over.
If this happens once, chances are high it will happen again (and yes, I wiped cache multiple times).
Update to this:
I visited a Huawei service center today and the technician told me that this happens with a lot of Mate 10 Pro devices.
What causes the problems is dust/dirt.
The technician used a metal tool first and then compressed air.
Supercharge and headphones now work again.
So, if this happens to you, you probably have to clean your port, but be careful since you could break the port.
The technician also advised me to buy some sort of dust cover for the device so that this problem doesn't happen so fast again.
Wow! I have never seen my phone explicitely says it's in supercharge mode in 5 month or so I own it! Oo
But charge was quick at 2A

I cleaned mine too now and I can certainly say that I now have much tighter sitting usb c cables. So cleaning it out is certainly the way to go, wether supercharge works or not.
Hmmm. I have had this issue too. My phone stopped supercharging but it also stopped allowing me to transfer data with a cable to my computer (or to my drone remote control). I cleaned it alot, but no effect. I ordered a new port assembly and replaced it. Now, it will supercharge for about a minute, but then it goes back into normal charging mode. While looking in the battery app, it would fluctuate between charging modes until deciding to charge normal. I've wiped the cache, but still doesn't help. Any further input??
