Xperia z1 compact won't charge using USB, magnetic dock works fine!

My Xperia Z1 Compact suddenly stopped charging while using a regular charger connected through USB. But the same charger and cable works fine if connected through the magnetic docking station. Is there any logical explanation to this weird behaviour? Is there any quick fix? Is it possible to repair? Shall I send it in for repair?

Hi and welcome to the community! Since you're new please be sure that you have checked out our Discussion guidelines.
There might be something faulty with your USB-port. If you have tried several chargers but you experience the same behaviour, I would suggest that you visit nearest service center to have your phone examined by a technician. You can contact your local support team for further information about nearest service center and/or how to proceed with this in the best possible way:

  • My iphone5 wont charge with usb port but works fine with wall plug... Infact computer. Doesn't recognizes the iphone

    Battery not charging with usb port but works fine with wall plug.. So the prob is computer is not detecting the iphone5 . This problem started after upgrading to 6.1.3 version

    Try to see what happens on another computer. If it works on another computer, the issue is not at the iPhone.

  • Xml pages won't load using latest Firefox 7, worked fine in earlier versions

    A web app that loads and displays xml files using javascript and xsl stylesheets is breaking since upgrading to Firefox 7.
    These pages load successfully using Firefox 3 and 4, and all versions of IE.
    I can't figure out why, bit it breaks when returning to pages that have already been successfully loaded.
    Error console shows:
    "Component returned failure code: 0x8000ffff (NS_ERROR_UNEXPECTED) [nsIDOMXMLDocument.load] ... data: no"
    but this is occurring for a file that had been successfully loaded previously.
    Additional info:
    I am getting the following warning for pages that do load successfully:
    Warning: Use of Document.load() is deprecated. To upgrade your code, use the DOM XMLHttpRequest object.
    I know I will need to deal with this issue sometime in the near future, but the structure of the data means that I need to load stylesheets from a directory above the directory containing the xml data being loaded, and the security features of XMLHttpRequest won't allow this. So a move to using XMLHttpRequest means restructuring the data, which is a major overhaul.

  • My sony xperia z1 compact won't turn on.

    My sony xperia z1 compact won't turn on. If i plug it for charging the phone would light red and will vibrate and continuetp be like that. What will i do?

    Guys, I am soon going to try this, and many said this worked.
    Equipment required:- 
    - Sony Xperia Z/ZL/ZR/Z Ultra/Z1/Z1S/Z1f/Z1 Compact (Sorry, I am too detailed)
    - Magnetic Charger
    - Micro USB Charger (in basic terms, your normal charger)
    Reason:- 
    Sometimes, the device seems to 'forget' how to charge, thus this method shall work
    Instructions:-
    1. Leave your device to charge with the normal Micro USB charger for 2 hours, and try to do volume up + power on method
    2. If Step 1 doesn't work, connect the magnetic charger to the device and leave it to charge for about 30 - 45 minutes
    3. If your device seems to react by turning on, then leave it to charge for a bit longer
    4. If it seems to be working completely normally, then you can go back to using the Micro USB cable
    If:-
    The device doesn't do anything differently after leaving it to charge on the magnetic charger, leave it for longer than what I stated previously (maybe 1 - 2 hours) and if nothing happens, then try and contact Sony, or take it to a local shop.
    So guys...
    So guys, I hope this works for you guys, as this may/may not work for me. Alternatively, you can try and get a test or something done, so you can ensure it isn't a hardware problem (water damage, dislodged battery etc...)
    Kind Regards,

  • Zen Micro wont charge using USB

    Hi,
    Can anyone help me. I have just purchased a Zen Micro and a Zen Touch. The Touch works fine. My wifes micro on the other hand is not - there was no charger in the box. I was under the impression that it can also charge using USB, but my machine (which is quite old btw - P4 650mhz Gateway) does not recognise it. Is it a problem with my machines USB, or is it more likely to be a problem with the Micro? I have purchased a Charger which should be around in the next couple of days (thinking it may need to be charged using a charger on the initial charge).
    Any help would be appreciated,
    Thanks in advance,
    Steve

    Do you know what firmware your wife's Micro has? (Check System > Information from the Micro's main menu to be sure.) Also, what Windows version (and service pack, if any) do you use?
    Do you plan to use "to go" subscription services with the Micro? Current "to go" services include:
    FYE Download Zone (US only)</LI>
    HMV Digital (UK or Ireland)</LI>
    Napster To Go (US, Canada, or UK)</LI>
    Rhapsody To Go (US only)</LI>
    Virgin Digital (UK only; US version doesn't support "to go")</LI>
    Yahoo! Music Unlimited (US only)</LI>
    For the Touch, did you install the drivers from the CD, or download the latest drivers from here? You probably should download the new driver (unless you have 2.x Micro firmware with WinXP SP or 2) to be sure it will support the Micro too.
    Are you connecting the Micro directly to your PC, or thru a hub? If to the PC, is the USB connection you're using on the front or the back of the PC? It's best to connect to a USB jack on the back of the PC if possible, not to a front jack or hub (especially an unpowered hub which won't charge the Micro). It's also possible that the Micro has issues with your PC's USB configuration; you may need to buy a separate USB card (preferably USB 2.0--you probably have USB . jacks).Message Edited by RBBrittain on 09-05-2005 07:09 PM

  • Ipod video 60 GB won´t charge from USB

    Hi my ipod won´t charge thru usb cable instead it will deplete the whole battery, I have tried connecting it in several ports, several computers and with 3 different usb cables with no luck, I noticed it will only charge thru my old firewire charger and dock, what can I do? When plugged into the usb cable it says "charging" but it does not.
    I have resetted everything with no luck.
    Thank you

    I have changed it from usb ports I have putted it in different computers and nothing, when connected to the usb port of any computer back, front sides or wahtever it doesn´t charge it actually drains the battery, I have also drained the battery fully and let it off for 2 days and no still won´t charge from usb after 5 hours connected to the usb, it will only charge via a firewire charger or my monster cable.

  • 3rd Gen iPod won't charge with USB connector - Is that normal?

    I have the above iPod, and I noticed that when I tried to plug it in to charge it with a newer USB connector it will not charge. It will however, let me update my iTunes music. Is this normal for an older iPod?

    I believe that is correct. That iPod was often called the iPod with 'dock connector', and as this chart shows, won't charge via USB.

  • My iPad won't charge using the charger brick

    My iPad won't charge using the charger brick

    you can try giving your device a reset and see if that helps. Hold down the sleep and home keys, past when you see the red power down slider and until you see the silver apple. Let it reboot and try. If that doesn't fix it, then time to move onto other trouble shooting.
    Usually if an iPad won't charge (presuming you're using the supplied charger plugged into the wall), it's:
    bad brick
    bad cable
    bad outlet
    bad port on the iPad
    you can eliminate the first three by swapping out chargers if you have another, swapping out cables and trying a different outlet. If you do that and eliminate the first three, then it may be the port on your iPad. If so, and your iPad is still under warranty, make an appointment at your local apple store and take it in.

  • My ipod won't charge with USB or AC adapter - only Firewire

    I recently bought a 3rd gen 20 gig ipod of ebay and it won't charge through USB or AC adapter. When I charge it through firewire, it loses its charge fast, so I am assuming the battery is dead. This still doesn't explain why it won't charge through USB or AC. Does anyone know why this might be? Please help!

    good to know that 3G ipods don't charge through usb - but I still don't understand why an AC adapter wouldn't work. I can't even figure out the charging patern - it seems that when I plug it in through USB it drains the battery, but the battery life varies. One minute it will have full charge, then the next it will turn off and say it is empty, then the next it will have half life, all without plugging it in. Frustrating...

  • My MacBook Air won't charge using the power cord and it's not the power cord that's malfunctioning. The battery is now exhausted.

    My MacBook Air won't charge using the power cord and it's not the power cord that's malfunctioning. I went to Radio Shack and tried two new cords. The battery is now dead. Any thoughts?

    Unfortunately, my battery has died as a result of not being able to charge with the power cord. Not sure what an SMC reset is but I have made an appointment to bring my laptop in to the Apple Store. Thank you for your response. Very much appreciated.
    Warm Regards,

  • This an IPOD I bought used.  Everything else works fine.  It syncs to my computer and plays my music but will not connect to the USB interface in my car. My wife's IPOD, which seems to be identical, works fine.  Any ideas?

    This an IPOD I bought used.  Everything else works fine.  It syncs to my computer and plays my music but will not connect to the USB interface in my car. My wife's IPOD, which seems to be identical, works fine. I should say it connects but then immediately disconnects.  Any ideas?

    Then my last suggestion is to Reset it, while connected to the BMW Audio.
    Toggle the Hold switch, make sure you dont see the red mark when you do the  next step
    Reset the iPod -> Press Menu and Center button simultaneously for about 10 secs or till the Apple Logo comes ON
    Then release the buttons
    Select your preferred language.

So it's not just youtube for me its all videos!

    haven't tried it myself but saw this earlier in a blog somewhere:
    "try retro installing FF v3.6.3",
    makes sense 'cos I've only been experiencing the same problem with mozilla & realplayer combo since updating to latest FF v3.6.4
    noted that under IE realplayer plugin still works fine, button to 'download this video' comes on as before.....
    from what I read retro install will pick up all your bookmarks etc. do no worries there
    naughty, NAUGHTY mozilla people! you were 'bombproof' until today....what happened? good luck sorting it out though!!!! I still luv you!
