Slow Charging - Sony Xperia Z Ultra

Idk if anyone else encountered this problem. The matter is my Sony Xperia Z Ultra was running perfectly. But recently from 2 days(last), it is charging very slowly. Previously it used to charge up 1% every 1-1.5 mins but now it takes about 3-4 mins. Looking for possible fixes.
I thought the problem might be with installed apps so I switched it off and then put it on Charging. Still the same prob. :'( Im feeling like Crying
Help me plz
Thanks in advance

I'm not sure whether it's related but my phone has been having problems with intermittent connection with the USB cable. Charging and USB OTG flickers off and on.
I'm considering using this http://www.mobiledeviceworkshop.co....-l36h-charging-port-repair-service-1633-p.asp does anyone know if they're reputable? Might also help if your problem is also related to the USB port.

Battery percentage wrong

I have a strange problem with my Xperia s.
Charging used to take ages. But all of a sudden charging from 4% to 100% only takes around an hour. Really strange but I didn't mind since everything seemed to be fine.
But a few days ago I used my phone while charging and I noticed it "skips" while charging. Like, it's at 20% and suddenly says 40%.
Now when I use my phone, everything is okay till it goes down to 16%. It will say 1% and suddenly shut down. When I plug in the charger, it will start again at 17%.
I tried a software reset with seus and battery calibration, both things didn't help.
What could be causing this? What else could I try?

Now we are getting somewhere.
I am using the charger that came with my Xperia ray since I lost the Xperia s one. They have the same output (5 v / 1 a) so I thought it was fine.
Cable is the original s one.
I already tried wiping the battery stats, didn't help.

ok well do you use any ROMS? or do you use stock
if you used a ROM and flashed it not so long ago under 24 hours
just give it some time and charge it to full and see if the issue is still there
if it is i realy don't know what to do for you mate

Even I changed the cable and chargers everything would solve the problem for couple of days then again back to square one...one peculiar thing was there was no knowing when it used to charge and when it used to stop there was no pattern to it...

Dude, i have the same problem as you. When my phone is plugged in, it takes forever to charge it and if i am using it when charging it will quickly discharge. Really annoying.
Slow charging
I think i have the same problem.
when i charge my phone over night, the battery is in the morning only 40-50%
I tried my old htc desire charger and the normal s3 charger, but it does not make any difference.
What can be the problem? my charger, battery or my phone itself?
FYI, I did a Kies update and that fixed my battery problem. Try it. It may work for you to.
it happened to me too
what I did was u changed my USB cable
it solved my problem
try this
Sent from my GT-I9300
a different good quality cable will solve the problem. I had a slow charging issue .changed to a Nokia sync cable .nd voila charges in the required speed
Sent from my GT-I9300
yes.. i guess whoever is encountering problem should try using the original cable and see if solve the problem.. mine does.. no choice..

Use Original Samsung cable or Nokia cable - that fixes most charging problems.
3rd party cables give a lot of problems...
Galaxy S3 Charging problem-disappointing and annoying
Dear All......HELP !!!
I bought a new S3 and i loved it.....everything was perfect...it was on ICS>
Now i have this problem since few weeks back....suddenly my S3 will not charge....sometimes only 3 to 4 % up whole night....very very slow.
Even the LED light is dim when charging.....
ALSO ...sometimes it is not charging then i unplug the cable from cell phone put it back.....its charges but after a few seconds it stops charging....worse when i connec to PC.
I tried twisting the cable....first i tought some problem in the connection point of cable to my phone....i changed cable nothing.....
is it hardware issue of my phone where it connects to charging cable or is it Jelly bean????
im really disappointed that how come a new phone (only 1.5 months old) can have this problem.....
PLEASE HELP ME.....I CANNOT CHARGE MY MOBILE.......from wall or USB....im starting to hate samsung ...although i used Galaxy S Plus...and loved it.....
Also my screen is less bright and yellowish than my wifes S3. i mean the white is not white is yellowish white (off white color)

Most likely the Samsung charger, many faults reported.
S1/S2/ BlackBerry and many others work on the S3

For quite sometime I notice that at times when i put my phone to charge, the battery would be stuck at a particular % for quite sometime like for eg 50% for more than an hour. But when I restart my phone it would say it is fully charged. I dont really understand what happens. I am using slimcm on my sola. Any kind of help would be appreciated,

[Q] Having phone issues

Hello people, I have a rooted s3 running super nexus ROM. I decided to charge my phone last night at 83%. This morning when I check, I still had 83%. I have changed all my chargers and cables(charger and cables are original) before this happened but unfortunately I still can't charge. I don't know if its my Hardware or software problem. Anyone else have the same problem as me?
I have uploaded my phone info as well.

that might be some software bug rather than a hardware problem. did you try removing the battery and re-inserting it?
Yes sriram. I did remove my battery. As a matter of fact, this is my second battery.I tried resetting battery stats and factory resets but problem persists.

you mean the battery isn't charging again? at all? or stopping at some point?
Is you are using the supplied charger and cable they are naff and known to fail/be unreliable.....worth checking

then this might be a problem with the charging port i guess! better return to stock warranty and give it in the service center.

[Q] Xperia P brick

Tonight my Xperia P has died. Without any warning, while being charged. I woke up to see it dead and refusing to turn on.
The only sign of life is the battery indicator going red when I plug the charger. Resetting with power+up doesn't work.
I've tried flashing it, and once even succeeded connecting it in flashmode, but that was accidental and I can't reproduce it.
Is there a way to flash such a brick? Any way to put it into flash mode?
I somehow managed to flash it with stock firmware. Didn't help though.
That was usually cause by bad charger or usb connection that depleting your battery. Charging it on working charger and cable for about 30 minutes while the red led appear might help your battery revive. (Based on personal experience though)
