yes, im using theAre you using the original wall charger that came with the device?
first my english is worseI had the same problem, my phone was charging for 5h. and discharging very fast.
Solution:
1. Hard Reset your phone
2. After hard reset just wait till your phone discharges.... Charge your phone to 100%, when done disconnect the charger, connect the charger one more time only to ensure that the phone is 100% charged! Disconnect the charger for the last time.. Now you need to turn OFF your phone and withdraw the battery. The battery needs to be unplugged for 10 hours.
After 10h. you can put everything back and turn on your device. Charge time should be back at 2h. - mine was 1h. 48m. after this procedure. I dont know if it works without hard reset... you should do it just to avoid software problems. Sorry for my english
first my english is worse
and im not sure if it will help. i have slow charge since i bought the phone [15-20%per hour]
i did once hard reset but i never tried to do this stuff
also i have to say the battery life is long as f**k it took me almost 4hours to drain the last 50% of the battery with very heavy usage [once in a while i drain it to 0 and recharge to see how long it will take xD]
i don't want to hard reset :\ anyway i have slow charging since i bought the phoneJust try it
..
.
or you can buy a new charger, battery... or a new phone... is this a better idea?
after 1 min it locks the phone.. so nopeDo you leave the screen on when charging, I ask this because I noticed that my phone would charge slower with the screen on due to it having to power the display as well.
ok i tried to check the current trough the diagnosis tool and i found that the orginal usb cabel giving me 400-500ma and sony cable gave me 895ma i guess my orginal cabel was defected
Open diagnosis>*#0228# and it will show you the battery indicatorsHow do you do this because I have very slow charging through the original cable too?
