Battery full charge takes 5 to 6 hours - Sony Xperia ZL

Hi all
How much time does it take for you to fully charge your xperia zl from 0 to 100. Mine takes more than 5 hours. This is unusual. Dining send it for replacement.

Are you using the wall charger or just through USB on the computer?

I use the charger+cable which came with the phone, and it takes like 3-4 hours to charge it completely.

I use wall charger I even got a fast charger with 1500mA rating still it takes more than 5 hrs
Sent from my C6502 using Tapatalk

Are you using it while it is charging, or do you leave it with the screen off to charge?

I have left it without using still it takes 5 plus hours. Tried multiple such combinations

After market cable can cause this because it has low amp output, I also faced the same issue if I use 3rd party cable, using original or cable that rated atleast 1amp output will shorten charging time.

I am using Sony ep880 charger and ec450 cable.mine takes 2.5 hrs max.

I am using ep850 charger. The cable doesn't specify the rating how do u guys know the rating of cable. However the cable came with y ep850 1500mA charger

Might be value in testing charging while the phone's actually powered off... (might be some significant power drain from a running app...)

Hello everyone
I also noticed that my device takes a while to load
However I noticed my charger shows the model EP-880 1500mA
I believe that may be a firmware issue

I was using another cable that originally came on my Xperia Mini which are both different models (using was to be longer)
So I started to use the original (Cable Model EC801) and now loads faster
I noticed that the cable Xperia Mini has two boxes (which would be a resistor or something?) In the middle of the cable, and ZQ does not have any of them

What are the specifications of the official Xperia ZL charger as I bought my phone without the charger and I had to buy another Sony charger separately and I don't know if it is the official one or not, if any one can post a picture of the charger, that would be very helpful.

ZL charger has 1.5amp output, just search for any charger that has this output or more. You can charge with 1amp charger also but it will take a longer time and ur charger will become too hot once it charge in a longer period. It will shorthen ur charger lifespan.
Other than that, ur cable output capability also play important role, search for atleast 1amp output cable, more amp more good but a bit expensive. Just google the spec of the cable or ask the seller.

Guys I confirm that mine was also because of the cable. I took Samsung cable and put it in my charger head. Now the charging is ok

[q] long battery charging

Hi
Is it normal that my xperia arc s takes over 4 to 5 hours to complete a full charge?
I mean, I`ve read here that some people said that they have a full charge in around 2 and a half hours.
Does the fact that my arc is international and im on America? Here the voltage is around 110-120 V
Or is the charger itself? It saids something like ECO FRIENDLY, and if i charge throught my computer i dont see any difference in the charging time... and its suppose to take longer this way.
Could be my charger? Need to buy a new one? And it is safe to buy a generic one?
Thanks
It's not normal for me, as it takes up to an hour and a half to fully charge. However it may the regional differences in voltage that may be the cause. The voltage we have in Astralia is double yours, at 240 V.
As for the generic charger, it'll be fine
Thanks
But the voltage zone only affects the charger or the phone and battery too?
I mean, sony made them different for each region or just the charger?
Check electric current on your charger also.
My charger has output 850mA and I also have fake charger with output 500mA. Charging using fake one makes my phone touchscreen crazy and charging takes ages.
USB also has current 500mA.

lol, my charger has 1500mA output . I have 220 V in my house, and the phone charges in ~1 hr 45 min
Check the o/p value of charger mine is 5.0vdc takes 2 hours for full charge.. Input value differs from country to country.. That's 100v to 240v ac.. Here in India 230v

Charger?

The charger which Sony provides has a really small wire so is there a genuine long wire charger available for z1 as it is impossible to use the phone while charging. So I m looking for long wire charger which is equal to the oem charger.

I just use a USB extension cord. Or another charger (usually a 2A one so it charges quicker)

you just need longer usb cable.. i use my samsung usb cable and charger, it works perfect
Dies in effects the charging speed.?

Any good USB cable shouldn't affect speeds, that depends on the maximum current that can be supplied by the charger (until the device starts limiting that).

[Q] What charger are you using?

Hey everyone.
I noticed a lot of people have been having battery problems.
Not poor battery life, but the issue some people are having where they can only use their phone while its plugged in.
My question is what charger, more specifically, what charging cable is everyone using?
I've noticed that if I used one of my Samsung charging cables to charge this phone, it takes FOREVER! Where the Sony cable that came with the phone charges it literally 3-4 times faster.
The charging cube or block doesn't seem to matter as I am using a blackberry cube with both cables.
I have a feeling that using the wrong cable could be causing people issues with their battery. Like its not providing the battery the correct voltage or something, causing a malfunction.
I don't really have any proof or specific knowledge to base this on, its just a hunch.
So what'd your charging setup like?
Mine = Official ZL cable in a blackberry power cube.

yeah it charges much faster in sony charges than a samsung charger for me.acually your device wont accept power more than its requirement but unless the chargers and cables are faulty (defective)it may cause battery issues
Have that problem, and I'm not using the original charger; Using Motorola with motorola / nokia cable; Still...today you have 1 thousand different options to charge usb units, and as long as they're not defective, they should charge ANY certified product with no problem at all.
What I mean is I don't have any other cellphone who had trouble with that on past; if charger is 0,25A will charge slower, if it's 1,5A will do faster.
Official ZL cable and charger and no battery problems so far.
Note 2 charger, sometimes HTC sensation charger, powerbank and laptop with BlackBerry Bold 9700 cable sometimes htc cable...so far so good...

I had a zl charger which used to take forever to charge the phone. I both an 1amp original charger that also took about 4 to 5 hrs to fully charge so I bought Samsung note 3 charger with 1.5amp rating and it charges in e hrs approx. Yes cable matters it has to be high duty one

No problems so far!
Any charger available actually I lost my original charger I loved that charger and one more thing samsung micro usb doesn't stay attached for long little movement and its unplugged

Original Sony charger here. And yes the use of multiple charger with different voltage will reduce the battery life and cause some malfunction. Search in Google there is a lot of confirmed info of this issue

Looking for good charger

Hello,
The charger i've received with the phone seems to be cheap and not good enough, someone can recommend a good one?
Thanks
I'm using a blackberry original charger with 5v and 800mAh and this gives me ~3 hours of screen on during in ~ 40hours of usage.
In this time I make phone calls for ~1h ,I keep data on only in needed.screen brightness is set to auto75℅.I don't play games too often.WiFi stays on for about 20h.
I observed that using a lower amperage for charging,battery drains slower.original charger has 1.2Ah and charge the battery in about 2 h.this 800mAh blackberry charger does it in ~3.5-4h.
Try to charge your phone from a USB 2.0 port.it will take longer,but you'll notice some increase in battery lasting.
I use about 4 different chargers and they all do the same job for me. I generally look for USB chargers that can do more than 1Amp and that seems to work fine for my Optimus G.

i tried a cheap 2amp Charger (Russian copy or something of a Samsung Charger) and it worked oki for like 2weeks, but what i noticed was that it didn't charged my phone faster then the original LG charger (I am running CM11/Android 4.4.2)
Can someone suggest a decent car charger?
I have tried several types but they barely keeps the phone from discharging when screen and GPS are active.
Use a charger which has 4.8-5.0V output with 1-1.2A or 1000-1200mA rating. My phone charges up in about 2.5hours and lasts more than a day considering I use little amount of wifi, more of texting and less of phone calls.
Up
I was using amb charger of 1 ah and it was good . Yesterday i bought hama twin port charger with original Nokia cable . Thats also a good combo . What matters most is keep phone temperature to minimum during charge . I ve noticed one battery temprature reaches 35 degree celsius or + , it would not charge and just drain .

sometimes I plug in and I see slow charging. When I check battery status it's written Charging (USB) there. I unplug then plug in again and : charging (AC). What's the reason for that?
I'm using stock ROM and stock charger.

Wall Charger Help

The Motorola charger charge is very slow and wanted to buy different one. I live in India and want To buy new adapter, please post the name of the charger u using so that I can buy online

Try Apple 5V 1A wall charger for iPhone 4S (be sure it's 1400 model, not 1300). Maybe not the cheapest solution, but tested and working well.

You can try Nokia AC-20, AC-60N or AC 50
Search on Flipkart or ebay there are a lot.
The Moto G charges at a maximum current of 1.5 amps. Any USB charger of that capacity or more will charge it as fast as it's capable of charging. If the charger has a higher capacity, the Moto G charging circuit will still limit it to 1.5 amps. Nothing else about the charger matters, unless the construction quality is so poor that it breaks too easily or gets so hot that it catches fire.
Cheap quality
The charger and earphones supplied with moto g is of cheap quality It wont even last 6 months!
Btw you can try any nokia charger AC 20 AC 50
seems to be working fine when i tested
SONY CP-AD2 Output is 2.1A it will charge the mobile quickly available offline through Sony brand stores
only downside the included cable is very short just 50cm but you can use any other micro usb cable with it
