as it`s said in the title, my touchscreen in Xperia Arc S is getting crazy during USB connecting. sometimes it just doesn`t work, sometimes behaves like I`ve putted two fingers on it, but I`m holding only one finger, sometimes just some area on screen works and some not. is there any way to fix that? i`ve got bootloader locked, so i can`t get root. I found this problem in every bulid I`ve tried.
I think this is a charger or Voltage or usb-cable's problem. you can change a usb-cable to try it again.

but if I`m putting my USB cable to a wall socket`s charget it`s ok, only during PC-USB charging this problem is appearing
and BTW I`ve not got any spare cable to try it. will try it tomorrow with my mom`s, dad`s and sister`s cables and let know is that ok or not
edit: I`ve tried with another USB cable and still got this problem. normal charging is ok but PC-USB charging causing problem.
HI, I have the same problem on arc S. Is there any solution yet?

Mine's on reverse. No problem when PC-USB charging, touch screen gets crazy the other way. I have this problem since I bought the phone.

If this problem happening only when phone is connected to pc and sd card mounted then I guess its app2sd bug something.
If only in charge mode then you cable is maybe "old"

I'm guessing it's internal current leak. There's nothing you can do about it, other than getting another phone.
Its probably because your laptop/computer has an "unearthed plug" (a plug with only two pins) whereas,your phone charger has earthed plug (3 pin plug).
The 3rd pin is to push out the excess current/voltage from your device to the ground and that is the reason you dont experience multiple-touches when you connect your charger directly to sockets. Simple as that.
Or because of capacitive touch screen nature reaction on different voltage ?

ya it happens only through the power supply and voltages problem..
it happens many times often...
i noticed that problem in indian trains..that when i did charging in train.it happens
and sometimes the battery also gets severly damaged through it..
so BEWARE..!!
I found the best solution ever....... just sold my Xperia and bought HTC Sensation
but for other people, I just had pre-beta version of Windows 8, which has a looooooooooooooooooooooooot of bugs, I reinstalled Windows 7 and all problems gone. And ether USB devices was getting crazy as well, so that must be something with USB port, not phone.
Howdy guys,
I found that there was a small amount of "noise" on the 5v line comming from my charger. and that was causing the touchscreen to fritz.
i tested using my osciliscope.
you'll prob find that the 5v line from you laptop is dirty. and the arcs internals cant filter it out. i dont know if prolonged use can cause dammage tho but i would advise against it.
so charge it from a stable source.
Pvy.
The same problem happens only when I connect my phone via HDMI to a TV! And it's annoying!
i have the same Problem too if i charge my LT15i with the Charger from a HTC Wildfire. At First i thought it has something to do with CM7 but now , on Arconium its still the same.
Fortunately my phone charges normal on the USB Port of my PC in the Company
I would say that if you get this problem using the original charger in any wall socket, try another charger if possible otherwise have both your phone and charger examined at a repair center.
If you get this problem charging via USB from a laptop or connecting via HDMI to a TV, check if the same problem appears during charging through a wall socket.
Basically you will have to check if the grounding problem is located in the charger, phone or other devices like a laptop or TV.

Hi, do you work at SE?
And I tried now and I also have this problem when conected to TV. So my problem is connecting to TV and to PC, but not when charging over wall socket.

Yes I work at SE.
In that case it seems that something changes the ground in your TV and PC.
Do you have any problems when the phone is not connected to anything?
Because if it works properly when connected to the charger via wall socket I don't think it's a problem with the phone or charger.
You could try to disconnect some other equipment from the TV when you connect your phone to see if this might be caused by some other equipment like antenna cable, sattelite dish, DVD or Blueray players etc.
Something seems to be wrong with my charging port, lately its been charging at a slower rate and at times when I use my phone while charging, the percentage actually drops. I am using the standard OEM charger and also once in awhile it wouldn't charge and I would either have to fiddle with the plug or restart my phone. Anyone know what the issue is?

Some basic stuff, just to eliminate the usual suspects before going any further:
1. Have you tried another USB cable?
2. Have you tried another charger?
3. Have you tried another USB cable AND another charger?
Of course, it may indeed be a problem with the port on the phone. But in my experience, USB cable is the most typical reason for weird things going on with charging, as well as data transfer...

Yes, I've probably tried over 5 different usb cables and chargers from friends and around my house, still the same problem. I'm thinking it may be the port.
So far, in the past months or so, my phone started acting up with the charging, then my battery died and could not power up my phone unless charged, replace the battery, charging issue was still there and now recently charging slower plus my microphone is dead. I wonder if how hard would it be to replace to port. Trying to prolong this phone until Z4 is out.
Hi everyone!
When I connect my phone to the charger, it doesn't always start to charge the battery. Only about every 10th time it succeeds.
I tried 3 differnd usb cables, all original sony. It's the same with all of them.
I tried to move the cable in the phone, but it's stable. Also if it charges, I can't stopnit by moving the cable.
For me it looks like a software error, as if the phone doesn't allow to charge.
Does anyone have the same problems?
Any idea how to solve this (in best case without wiping the phone)?
Thank you in advance!
This is a recent problem or have you always had it? You think it's software so does it do it with different roms, or have you tried? I read somewhere the usb port on the phone becomes faulty easily, this seems more your cause, if your certain it's not the cable.
Not Charging as Well
My ZL is not charging as well i plug the AC charger and it gets bootloop.
It stop bootlooping after 1 hour and show the charging icon, but it does not charge.
Do you guys think it is the baterry or some issue with the power management.
I tryed to Charge the baterry with and old Universal Battery charger it hold a little power.
The Cell works when i turn it on with the wall charger but show only 1% of battery
Please guys help me with that.

I don't think it's a hardware problem. I used 3 different cables, all original sony. Sometimes they work, sometimes not. I'm using USB otg a lot (got my videos and some mp3 on a stick), never had problems with usb connection.
I didn't have those problems for a long time, but I don't remember any special apps I installed in the last few weeks.
Didn't try any custom roms yet, I'm very satisfied with my current setup (except for the charging problem ). I'm using latest stock with google crap and bloatware uninstalled.
Hopefully the lollipop update is coming soon. If it's not too buggy I will give it a try.
Hey there, just for a month im experiencing slow charging issue with the stock charger (qc3)...my device is 1 years old...what can be the problem?

Try cleaning the charging port on the phone and see if it helps any.
With the stock charger, I have found that sometimes it doesn't want to quick charge so I have removed the cable, flipped it over and it works fine. Not sure why, but it works.
Outside of what I've mentioned, a new cable and/or charger may be in order.

thanks for the reply.. im gonna try to clean the port...but also im cleaning my device constantly =( hope its beacuse of the charger...
Hi all,
I have a ~2 year old RN5 Global. About 1 week ago, I noticed that it won't charge anymore. When I plug in the charger, the charging icon switches between on and off every second.
After the battery died, I was able to charge it to 68%.
I already tried different chargers and USB cables. I also changed the USB charging port.It doesn't look like the original, however, the problem remains.
Does anyone have an idea what I can try?
Update: I just replaced the battery. Still same behavior as before.
Does that also mean at the same time, that is it not a software issue?
