hi guys,
I have a weird problem with my Xperia Play, when I put the battery it gets very hot even when the phone is off.
Anyone got this problem before?
No mine gets hot if I teather and charge at the same time. What temperatures does it get to the battery can stand temperatures up to 60'c before damaging the battery
Sent from my R800i using XDA
actually the heat doesn't come from the battery but from the motherboard, and it gets very hot even when the phone is shutdown.
I sure that it's a hardware problem but not sure how to fix it.
Do you think that if I reflow it with a hot air gun, it fixes the problem?
if your phone is still under warnty i would get it fixed by sony erricson before you go opening it up. you dont wont to end up with a paper weight
Battery heat can be dangerous and you should remove the battery until you fix it.
I had similar problem, mine heats when i turn it on and drain battery fast (electric circuit problem).. i sent it to repair center and i advise you to do the same.
so, ... anyone got it any idea what's wrong with the phone .. WHY IS IT GETTING HOT, even though it is switched off..
I've never heard of a device getting hot when it's not even on. While charging, playing games for a while, or while overclocked, yes. While it's off, no.
Sounds like some sort of strange hardware issue to me. Time to send it in for warranty.

Hey guys my phone keeps turning off all by its self and then i have to hit the reset in the back. I've owned it for about a week and this has happened at least 6 times now. This can't be normal can it?
Mind ZL currently away for repair as it under warranty but have you tried installing new firmware via pc companion or flashtool and backup first. If the problem still persist the likely a hardware or battery fault then you no option but to be examined for repaired.

Re: Xperia ZL turns itself off
I am also having the same problem. last evening i was playing nova 3 game on my xperia zl c6502 when suddenly it turned off . i thought its because mine battery was dead. i charged it and when i again started playing the game it turned off in between of game just 5 min when i started it. this problem got even worse after that whenever i opened any app it turned off after staying alive for at the most 5 min. But i didn't experienced any problem when it was connected to charger. what to do! my parents are too strict if i tell them this problem they wont spare me. And also i don't get enough pocket money to do any repair on my own. any solution would be greatly thanked!!!!!!!!!!!
I had a similar issue where my phone would only work while plugged in. I had to replace the battery and it fixed it. You can get a new battery + tools on eBay for ~$15.
My ZL is suddenly dead..not bootloop.
I try Pc companion but it can't detect my phone even when i press vol down when I plug it via usb
same story happen when i try to fix it with flashtool when i try to flash it firmware but still pc can't detect my phone
I use original cable data for samsung s5 since my sony ZL's was broken. Need help please!!!!!
what were you previously doing that caused this issue? do you have a recovery installed?

nothing..just taking pictures then it's off..as the symptoms I mentioned above..
U have a dead battery I suppose.
I also had a similar experience while I was browsing Chrome. Suddenly it tuned off.
If you have it under warranty, go to the service centre and get it replaced. They replaced my phone too with a new one.
If not, then you are in trouble. Search in ZL forums about this battery issue and you will find many.
Also there are some tutorials on replacing the battery. You will find that there are links for a new battery too.
Good luck.
I have a similar situation in that I bought a used ZL. The person selling the phone said he was using it as a GPS and the battery drained. The phone died and, after charging, it would start and reboot at the Sony logo. When I brought it home, it will not even power on. I connected it to a power source, the red LED comes on, and goes off after 5 to 10 minutes. I ordered a new battery and hope that solves the problem. If not, I wasted money on a replacement battery and the phone
Got my battery in the mail today. In replace the existing battery and everything works except for the external speaker. When someone calls me, the phone only vibrates. I wonder if the ROM has anything to do with it. It's running the latest 5.1.1 for the c6506.
Z5 Premium not turning on
hello everyone,
PLEASE HELP ME!
My z5 premium was working fine.. battery was charged too, and suddenly it turned off, and it didn't turn on back again. I've tried all the different ways and solutions that should turn it back on:
hard reset didn't work
2 minutes hard reset didn't work
hard reset button didn't work
plugged it in using it's OEM charger and usb cable didn't work either and LED didn't lit up
plugged it in to the computer nothing happened, wasn't detected with no sign of life
I had to take off it's battery cover (using professional tools) unplugged the battery, connected the phone to the charger while the battery is unplugged, and nothing happened reconnected the battery back, and plugged the phone again to it's wall charger, and no sign of life.
i left it there all night long since the afternoon. and when i came back in the next morning to check if the phone is charging and the LED is lit up, but again NO SIGN OF LIFE!
(BTW, the phone is in mint condition and it was never been disassembled or repaired)
Please if anyone have an idea what this could be?
if anyone has encountered the same problem and went through the same of what I've been, and was able to repair it or find a solution PLEASE LET ME KNOW!
Now, I'm thinking of 2 things: either the battery is completely dead(damaged) or it's the mainboard which I don't hope to be.
PLEASE LET ME KNOW YOUR THOUGHTS ABOUT THIS!
Now, forget about any sort of software repair, as I explained above, the phone didn't succeed in that.
So, any help or suggestion would be so much appreciated.
Thank you all for taking time in reading and participating in this topic.
Have a good day.

Not happy reading this thread. Why so many issues with Sony Android... Anyway;;
- I recently had the same issue - or an issue in the same ball park. Phone Just died and refused to charge, but would show a red LED and try to boot when plugged in.
- Sent it to Sony, Hoping it is only a dead battery
The OP sounds like a they have a USB port issue or a board issue, also OP phone will no longer waterproof after removal of cover.
Unclear as to whether you have tried the following;
- Turn on whist holding camera button instead of Volume up/down. it is worth a try
- Try to grab an official sony charging cable- basically impossible to buy nowadays, maybe a PS4 controller cable? try it
My stock unrooted Z5p died like this in April. Have the same issue as the OP and tried all the same solutions. My Z5p had only been used indoors for months with WiFi before sudden death. Replacing the charging port did nothing. Using the OEM cable and charger with a new battery gets a 2 sec red light when connected to power and starts booting up until the swirls (gets past Sony Xperia and powered by android screens). Then the screen goes dark and shows the big battery for a couple of seconds.
I didn't realize there was a sudden death problem with Sony phones until I started trying to fix this. What's even crazier is that I had (have) the Xperia Z, Z Ultra, and the Z2. The Z2 was used in the rain constantly and even survived an ejection from a handlebar mount at 15mph onto asphalt. (All these phones were rooted and using custom ROMs/kernels.) Seems like Sony has a serious QC issue they're not taking about.
Hi everyone, I just want to ask for help from you guys. My Xperia Acro S does not boot up nor does it charge steadily. When I charge it using the USB cable it just won't show the sony logo before the battery charging symbol. It actually got drained I think but it should charge properly because it was missing for 2 years then I found it and it charged and I still got to use it. But after a few months that it has been hidden again, it will not charge it is like turning itself on without the sony logo. Flashtool can detect it but it cannot flash a ROM. So I hope I can fix it soon or if you guys have an idea or solution that would be very appreciated. :crying::crying::crying::crying::crying::crying::crying::crying::crying::crying::crying:
Have you tried with a new battery?
