My Sony z keep turning itself off randomly

Did you expose it to water recently?Do you get any messages to appear before it shuts down?Did you try and check if this also happens in Safe Mode?

Now this is where it gets super weird....... The small pin on the micro USB port which connects to the charger broke on my phone. I had gone to the Authorized Service Center of Sony and they simply refused to touch my phone stating that since its a Z series phone which is water and dust resistant, the company does not allow them to touch those phones. Spoke on their online customer support who echoes the same thing and suggested me to send the phone to the company itself via the service center. He told me if I decide to do that, i have to pay a handling charge irrespective of whether my phone gets repaired or not.  So i decided to find another solution. I got myself a Sony Dock Charger for Xperia Z which was specifically launched for users like me whose pins have broken. Now that Dock charger does not connect to my laptop no matter what I do. As in my laptop doesn't recognize the phone when its connected.  So, PC companion is also not possible for me.

  • My ht-ct80 sound bar keeps turning itself off every 15min.

    4 days ago I bought a htct80 sound bar and it keeps turning itself off every 15min. I serched the internet for a solution to no avail. So I need a answer from sony. Its a great sound bar while its on. Please give me a solution or i will have to take it back for a refund this weekend. If anyone else is having this ptoblem. And i know there are many please reply to this post. The more that reply the more likely we will get a rwsponse from sony.

    Hello everyone,
    The Sound Bar turning off every 15minutes is related to the Auto Standby function due to the Sound Bar not receiving an input signal.  Unfortunately, there are two conditions where the sound bar will recieve a low input signal that results in the Auto Standby triggering incorrectly.
    The first case is when the TV’s headphone jack serves as an audio output jack.  This is not a recommended method for Audio Input for the Soundbar.  If you are using this method, check the TV’s audio output settings. For details, refer to the TV’s operating instructions.  If you can not change audio output setting, set up TV volume which is strong enough to prevent it from entering Standby mode.
    The second case is when you are using a set-top box (Cable box) that has a volume setting.  You can either change the Audio Settings on the set-top box for Fixed Audio Out (if available) or increase the volume on the set top box(Cable box) to maximum setting and then adjust the volume on the Sound Bar itself to obtain the desired actual volume.
    Thank you,
    ---Chris

  • My ipad2 keeps turning itself off and On

    my ipad2 keeps turning itself off and on. I can be playing a game or looking on the Internet and it will just turn off and restart all by itself. I pulled up and hooked it up to itunes on my computer but I'm not really sure what to do there either.  It's so annoying, especially when it's used daily, or all day, by me or my kids and it's constantly shutting off in the middle of things.

    DId the rebooting start recently after doing an iOS update or installing a game? 
    There could be several reasons for your iPad randomly shutting down & restarting. 
    Sometimes low memory (RAM) can cause the issue. 
    First, restart the iPad by holding down the home & sleep/wake buttons simultaneously until the Apple logo appears then let go and wait until the iPad boots up normally.  This can help clear the cache & free up memory.
    If that doesn't work, try a general reset:
    Settings->General->Reset->Reset All Settings.  You will not lose any data but will have to log back into your Wifi networks.
    If the issue occurs while using a particular app, try uninstalling the app to see if it continues.
    As a last resort try restoring the iPad back to factory settings.  Be sure to backup your iPad first.
    Use iTunes to restore your iOS device to factory settings - Apple Support
    Unfortunately, it may also be that your battery is starting to fail but try the above to see if the problem persists.

  • My iPhone 3GS keeps turning itself off all the time for no reason every time I put it on silent or just get a Facebook message I have a broken sleep/power button anyone know how to fix this problem?

    My iPhone 3GS keeps turning itself off all the time the power/sleep button dosent work so it's quiet annoying having to plug it in all the time dose anyone have a fix for this?

    The "fix" is to get the phone repaired.  There's no magic solution for a broken phone.
    Bring your phone ant $149 to Apple for an out of warranty replacement, or find a 3rd party repair shop near you.

    My iPad mini keeps turning itself off and then the apple logo keeps flashing constantly, i have charged it fully and restored it many times. what can i do?

    If you have restored to factory settings and started as new, there is nothing more that you can do on your own. Make an appointment at an Apple Store and ask them for help. You might have a hardware problem and the Apple Store techs will be able to determine that.

  • My nokia 5300 keeps turning itself off

    Help my nokia 5300 keeps turning itself off. It won't let me read my messages. Everytime I press the key to read my messages it just goes off. I only had it about 6 months!!!

    Hi,
    The phone software of your N5300 got corrupted or messed up. It's either you can update it (by yourself) or send it to the Nokia Care Centre for a reflash.
    Try updating your phone's firmware by clicking to this link below:

    Make sure you meet the system requirements before proceeding and backup some of your important contents.
    Good luck

  • My iPod Touch turns itself off randomly

    My iPod Touch turns itself off randomly. I will be doing something, and it turns off. It gets so bad that it turns off right after I slide to unlock it. Sometimes it flickers off and on as well. It works fine when plugged in to a power source. I haaven't done anything traumatic to it either. It just randomly started. Has this happened to anyone? If so, did you fix it? If you did, How? Please tell me, I'm at the eand of my rope with this.

    Depending on the usage and age of the device it could be the battery.
    To make sure it is not software related, reset the iPod by holding the sleep and home button until the Apple logo comes back gain. You will not lose data doing a reset.
    Next step after that would be setting it up "as new device" without using the latest backup: How to set up your iPhone or iPod touch as a new device

    After updating my iPod 4 and my iPhone 3gs to 5.1 it keeps turning itself off whenever I'm trying to load a larger web-page, or doing some hard operations. Is there anything I can do to fix this?

    Have yu tried the standard fixes:
    - Reset. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iPod touch:  Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears
    - Restore from backup
    - Restore to factory defaults/new iPod.

  • My iPod touch keeps turning itself off

    My iPod touch keeps turning itself off. My iPod is fully updated and charged. When i try and turn it on the apple symbol comes on but a bit later turns itself off again (even when on a charger) what should i do?

    Try:                                               
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on           
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try another cable                     
    - Try on another computer                                                       
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • My LG Lucid keeps turning itself off

    I haven't had any problems with it, until recently. I've had it about three or four months, and now it just randomly turns itself off. It just started doing this yesterday, and today it's happened six or seven times. I do use my phone a lot, I listen to music when I go to class and I use it to keep track of assignments and club meetings and such. I also text and use the internet a lot. I charge it every night, and sometimes during the day because the battery drains so fast sometimes. I don't know if it's something that I'm doing that's wrong, or if it's my phone.

        long7489, I'm sorry your phone is powering off and on. I understand how frustrating it can be to have issues with your device. The community suggestions are correct, please try safe mode to find out if an app is causing the issue. If you continue to have issues, you can perform a hard reset back to the factory settings. Please keep us posted. If the the phone was physically damaged or damaged by water, you will also continue to have issues. ^KH
