I was wondering if anyone else has had problems with their charging port? Just tonight mine has started to not allow the cable to click in and has started to give error messages. I've tried a different power block and a different cord. Seems okay now but just worried it's the USB going already
Same for me. Sometimes nothing happen. Sometimes there is a "warning slow charge" message. Sometimes it writes "fast charging" but I don't use a fast charger !! And it is really slow

Hi guys, I have a Tilt2 with the EnergyROM...
My phone recently started acting up, and wont charge the battery when plugged in (oem HTC charger)
The orange light turns on, and phone says charging but battery level doesnt change, in fact it drains as usual. Yet sometimes if I leave the phone plugged in it will start charging?
I also get the current charge isnt enough switch to AC charger or close applications error sometimes when plugged with the AC charger...
I'm leaning towards a bad battery but wanted to see if anyone had this problem before?
Thanks in advance!
That sounds like a charger problem. try a different one.
thanks for the response...i tried a charger that had the usb plug to it, i tried a charger with a usb end on it, and two car chargers and i get the same effect...i did hard resets and even installed a new ROM to see if it would help. but no luck

It's the the charging points , look at the middle bar is it staight across try bending it just a little , a smidge left or right , I had this issue before and also on my original tilt and it fixed it.
So when I first got my phone, beside plugging into my laptop, my phone use to charge at a normal rate (which was pretty fast) but recently I've notice that whenever I start charging my phone, a message in the notification would appear saying something along the lines of slow charging due to low current in TA. I hope there isn't a malfunction in my phone.
Can anyone help?
Unless I use the charger that came with the phone, I get that message. I think it's a software thing.

But I am using the charger that came with the phone.
Try a different usb cable.

Make sure the plug is all the way in, it's possible your case (if you have one) is block the plug from fully connecting. I noticed that if I don't push the micro usb plug all the way into the charging port, I will get the notice that I am in slow charging mode.
I have the slow charging issue when my phone is in ##DIAG# mode. Turn off diag fixes the issue. If not using diag, maybe try changing usb mode from charging only to mtp.. or something?
My problem is that my charge port was jammed full of pocket lint. I used a flashlight, pin and a plastic straw cut to a point to clean it all out, there was just about a small animal in there. The cable went in about a mm further and back to charging full speed.
For some reason, I was charging my phone and it just stopped. It was only the second time I decided to charge without "fast charging" ticked and it is puzzling me. After testing a combination of all my chargers, I found that the problem seems to be the fast charging adapter. It does not even stay plugged in all the time... Is it normal for them to stop working after only a few months? Or could the problem lie within my phone?
Okay, I am pretty sure the problem is with the adaptive charger and maybe the usb cable. Would Best Buy be able to exchange my charger for a new one since I bought the phone in like October or something?
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.
