Have you tried pdanet drivers? They work well.

You need to delete the lg drivers from device manager.

Then install pdanet and reboot your pc.

Try connecting that way.

[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iamthatmattguy:
Hi, I have a Sony Xperia Z1 running cm12 nightlies. I've been getting this problem where the phone shows 40% battery but turns off at this and on restart shows 1%

This was okay, however, recently it has started turning off at 70%

I don't really want to replace the battery, as my warrenty is voided (isn't it) and it's not the easiest thing to disassemble.

Thanks.
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] v7:
Can you try to calibrate your battery once?

100-0% and then 0-100% in one go :)

Thanks, could I not just simply flash it with the recovery?
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] optimumpro:
Don't waste your time on flashing and calibrating. You have classic symptoms of a dying battery. Soon, the phone would shut down at 90%, because your battery capacity is 6-7 times less. Try to run a youtube video and your phone will die in less than 20 min.

If you read this and general threads, you would have found similar complains. You need to replace your battery.
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iamthatmattguy:
Ugh yeah that's what a quick Google search told me as well

How easy would you say taking apart and replacing the battery in a Z1 is?

Edit: If it's the battery why does it suddenly cut off instead of quickly decreasing.
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] optimumpro:
Because battery is measured by voltage and when voltage goes down to a certain level, kernel shuts down the phone. If your normal battery has 20 cells, yours has only 3 left and voltage goes down rapidly under load, because the other cells are dead. Even if the battery has 1 cell left, when it is charged, the phone will show 100%, while there is a real capacity to hold just a few percents.

Watch youtube videos on how to change the battery. You may or may not break the back pannel (I did). So, get a replacement back glass too.
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] roushan84:

I had same issue with my z1 since last 4-5 weeks. Thinking that battery is dying I changed it yesterday with a brand new sony battery. Now even after changing my battery, the problem persists. Phone switches off suddenly with 45-60% charge left.

I am on PAC Roam running 5.1.1 . Prior to this I have tried MX rom, Ressurection remix and few other ROMs running 5.1.1 however the same problem wa there as well.

I think it is not only to do with battery but with something else. Please help :confused:
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] optimumpro:
You probably have a random reboot issue (thanks to some recent dumb kernel/rom improvements), as opposed to switch off. Look for what your battery shows after reboot: if it is 1%, it is battery related and you got a bad replacement. If it is close to the value before reboot, it is your rom/kernel. There is no third option. And by the way, battery drain has nothing to do with bad battery. Most drains are caused by Gapps and social apps. Also, if you install a new rom or battery, you have to give it a few charging cycles.
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] roushan84:
Sometimes (like just 10 mins back) my phone goes off and when I reboot it, it comeback with same battery percentage but most times it needs charging to reboot and when it comes back alive, battery stat is 1%

Same was the case with my last battery. Now I am even more confused as to what is the exact cause :confused: Should I lock my bootloader and flash Stock 5.1.1. ftf and see if problem still persists?
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] optimumpro:
If your phone boots on its own after switching off, then it is not the battery issue. CM roms are becoming worse and worse for several reasons: too many devices; bad sources from google and incompetent software guys (both at CM and Google). I don't like apple and their products, but when one entity controls hardware and software, you will have fewer bugs. Google pays their engineers for introducing more and more ad related things into Android, as opposed to making Android a full blown operating system.

Go to stock and see how long your new battery lasts: if it dies after 20 min of youtube, you have a bad battery. Period. If it is not, then find a custom rom that does not have random reboots, which unfortunately there is only 2 or 3...

For any measurements to be valid, you need to give your battery at least one cycle on a current rom (from 100% to 15-16%).

P.S. You may have both issues. If you paid $10-12 for a new battery, then most likely, you have a Chinese fake that only looks like real Sony...
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] roushan84:
I bought it in Rs 1500 (approx $30) from authorized sony service centre which also gave me a warranty of 6 months. Worst case I can return it to them but just want to be sure before I try and do that.

My phone switched on once after going off and it was with same battery stat (last instance). there have been couple of times when I could turn my phone on but it showed only 1 or 2% battery.
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] optimumpro:
Just do what I recommended in the previous post: go to stock, fully charge and see how long the battery lasts on youtube: in 20 minutes, you should lose no more than 13-15% on a new battery, as opposed to go to zero. Some Z1 batteries have a problem: Mine died about 9 months ago. My old Xperia ION (which is a 2012 phone) battery is still going strong (lasts for at least 2 days on Jeallybean).
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] roushan84:
I just recharge it to 100% and ran YouTube for 35 mins and from 100 it went to 93%..!!

Only 7 battery loss for 30mins YouTube on 240p and full volume

I hope the issue was there for first few cycles. In case if still persists, will try and flash FTF tomorrow and see what happens:fingers-crossed:
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] optimumpro:
That means your battery is fine and you have random reboots related to the rom you use. Here are custom roms that have no reboots: slimrom; tesla, DU and Jaguar. The last 3 are mine. LOL. I am not promoting my roms, don't need to (just look at the number of downloads, especially Jaguar)... In case of Jaguar, you have to flash November 1 kernel on top of the latest release. It is in November that they introduced changes that cause reboots...
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] roushan84:
Haha..

I know you don't have to plug-in your roms. I guess I will hold it for a day to see how my phone behaves. Major battery drain is when I play Clash of Clans. I am on CoC to check endurance. If not, them will move to Jaguar with Nov kernel on top.

I have realized that it's somewhere in November since there random reboots and battery issues started
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] roushan84:
I flashed latest Jaguar with Nov 1 kernel and c6902 modem (Version 4). Have also flashed 5.1 gapps (Micro version) and restored all my apps. have created Zip from titanium backup.

Phone still went off from around 75% battery. when restarted again, it came back with 45% battery, just to die within 30 seconds :crying:
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] optimumpro:
Did you install the battery or Sony? When the phone died, did you get any message on screen (like shutting down the phone), did you see battery reading go to zero? Did the screen freeze before dying or shutdown was battery related?

Don't install titanium in system or via flashing. Try to install your apps straight without titanium. You can use titanium to restore data, if needed.

Jaguar does not have random reboots. A new battery should not lose 30% after reboot, although phone is doing more work with newly installed rom and apps...

P.S. Well, if you restore 200 apps, on an unsettled rom with a new battery that had just a few charging cycles and saw nothing but flashing different roms and titanium restore, I guess strange things could happen...
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] roushan84:
Battery or Sony?:confused: - Do you mean that Did is install a new battery? Yes I did

Yes I did see battery % go 45 from 75 and then to zero in 2nd reboot attempt. Screen froze and then flicking for few seconds.

Titanium is installed normally however I have all my apps backed up in titanium and I have created zip of all those apps (via titanium app only). Everytime I flash a new rom, I flash these apps. Helps me save time of restoring all app one by one

Can you also suggest the recommended Gapps for Jaguar. Gapps may be one of the culprit for crazy battery drain
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] optimumpro:
I don't use Gapps, but you can look in the Jaguar/DU threads, as someone was recommending suitable Gapps (miniGapps?). I also use Titanium for backup/restore, but I always restore one app at a time. So, to be on the safe side, I would do a regular restore, especially that Titanium has several ways of restoring apps.

Well, if that continues, you might want to reopen the back door and see if the battery cable was connected all the way. You might want to remove it and check that all pins are fine, as they are delicate and easy to bend.

P.S. Try Slimgapps: http://xdaforums.com/slimroms/general/gapps-official-slim-gapps-trds-slimkat-t2792842

Try to reset battery stats via recovery
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MickieH:
My Z1 would charge to 100% and seem to drop normally to about 60% or so, then it would drop straight to 1% and turn off. It got worse and worse.

The phone was running a pre-rooted, but stock 5.1.1.

I got a new battery, and replaced it. The old battery surface wasn't nice and smooth like the new one, it was fatter, and lumpy if you looked closely. Obvious signs off a duff battery.

New battery fixed the problem. Wasn't hard fitting it.

Heat the back up, and use a flat blade, carefully, to get the back off. See the pic I attached.

Remove the screws in the mid-frame and warm that too, and remove it using the flat blade.

You can then get to the battery connector.

Swap batteries.

Put it back together, and warm it up to reseal it, although you may have damaged the seals now. You can get new ones off eBay, but I didn't bother. I didn't intend taking my phone swimming anyway.

Works like new again.
[XDA Assist] XDA Visitor:
So this phone was decided to get CM12 ROM, and everything was downloaded and ready to install. The only part left was CWM recover installation.

Two ways was found to do that- Using ADB, or Flashify. The choise was Flashify.

So there was two different packages for CWM- for ADB and for Flashify, and package for ADB was installed via Flashify.

Results:

Hi,

Thanks for using XDA assist.

I found a helpful thread that may be useful to you:

[REF] LG-L70 D320n - ROOT/unroot -Unlocking bootloader - CWM recovery

The D320N is similar to the D320, so the methods described should work (D325 reported working with methods described as well).

Alternatively, you can post in the Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting forum as your phone doesn't have a dedicated forum. Please note that in order to post, you will need to create a XDA account.

So, I have my old galaxy nexus getting full bars with the same sim card in the same place as my note 3 gets like 1 bar or almost goes off network. Even old Nokia and my mom's G2 have full bars so the problem is with my note 3.

I had a problem with my usb port so I replaced it with this one: http://www.aliexpress.com/item/For-...Charging-USB-Flex-Cable-Dock/32270903770.html

I am using SmokkieRom v5 (Note 5 port) but I renember I had bad signal with DarkLord S6 and his Note5 port too. I never used stock so I can't tell because I hate ugly samsung stock theme enough to want to stay away from it.
