[Xperia Z5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] a00r:
So I bought my z5 in November, everything has been working fine, up until recently.... first I noticed after I charged it the battery was draining rapidly. like a % every few minutes, charged it from 100% and it died on me in less than 6 hours. Now I charged it again and the battery drain issue is still present. Now it won't even charge I pluged it into the phone it vibrates the charge light goes on but then it goes off and refuses to charge... Turned the phone off tired to charge it nothing, turned it on tried to charge it nothing, plugged it into my computer it vibrates, then nothing, it won't even show up on the computer:crying:

Seems a bad usb cable?
[Xperia Z5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] a00r:
nope tried multiple cables it refuses to charge
[Xperia Z5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] a00r:
ok unplugged it and re plugged it, now it is charging, but I can't go 5hrs without it needed to be charged from 100% last thing I remember doing was updating apps, but still that should not affect the battery and usb cable connection still won't show up on my pc, it's taking forever to charge and it's on quick charge

bad cable, i have this problem too yesterday, and it was the cable from my power bank.
[Xperia Z5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] a00r:
I tried other cables and it refuses to recognize on the PC, also the battery cannot last overnight it drains from 100% to 0% in less then 6 hours, might as well RMA this crap or wait till marshmallow see if any thing changes, if MM doesn't drop by next monday I'm a RMA this sony crap
[Xperia Z5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheTecXpert:
Charging the Z5 with a PC will charge slowly even with quick charge set on on pc..

But here's the interesting part that I have noticed. When you plug the device in to the usb on the pc and set the phone to charge only mode.. It charges damn slow. And I mean slow. But. If you plug the device in to the pc and set the device to MTP mode and just leave it to charge. The device actually charges a bit quicker.. I find it weird. But since usb output is 2Amps 5Volts, I use a 2.1Amp usb charging DC adapter and a thick usb cable and my device charges fast as he'll. 1% to 100% in 45 minutes to an hour.. But once a week I give my device a full charge (charge completely while device is switched off -usually when Im going to go to sleep I leave it over night).. Charging a phone when it's on only gives it a quick charge, hence why when you turn off the device even when battery shows 100% while it is on. The device only roughly shows around 70% - 80% charged, depending on device maybe even 90-95%.. So u can fast charge it, then turn it off and charge the remaining amount of battery while it's off.. Don't charge past 70% while you're using the phone. Or it Will get hot which can decrease battery life..

Hopefully this information was useful to some of you..

Have a great day guys :)

Not charging any more

My Z5 does not charge any more. I tried different chargers and cables, that worked until yesterday, but now it´s not charging.

When I plug in the cable in the empty phone, the red LED on top goes on for a short time, the Sony logo appears, than the big battery symbol. But then it won´t charge. Any ideas?

I think i can remember getting yesterday an update from Sony. But I don´t what it was. I had just the Symbol for System/What´s new update in the icon bar on top.
[Xperia Z5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ABAndi:
I downloaded the Sony Companion Software reflashed the firmware with that (connection and update worked) but charging is still not possible.
[Xperia Z5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheTecXpert:
Doesn't make sense.. That sounds so odd. It probably is charging, but just not showing it??

Quite bizarre lol. Have you let the phone die completely, then recharge it and start it back up, after around 10% charge??

Another alternative, use a third party app to calibrate the battery (if youre able to boot in to the os that is).

Removing the battery is another method (requires opening the device)

Last method I can think of but im not sure if it will do anything is to hold down the power & vol + & vol - keys altogether until device vibrates 3 times (while plugged in to a charger) keep holding all 3 keys until the phone vibrates (power cycles) 2 more times (3 vibrates followed by another 3 fast vibrates)..

So like.. While holding all keys, phone will vibrate once.. Then it will vibrate 3 times(rapidly).. Keep holding all keys.. It'll vibrate another 3 times (rapidly).continue holding all keys for 1 more cycle of 3 rapid vibrates, then only let go of the vol down key, but keep holding vol up and power key for another 10 seconds (or until you feel 2 more power cycles of 3 rapid vibrations (6 in total). Then leave device off. Observe the charging icon see if it charges..

Good luck

I have had same problem exactly, phone seemed dead after getting same charging problems, do hard reset (lock button + Vol up button) for about 20 secs i think, i got a blue light now, nothing else but better than nothing. will update if i get any progress.

For anyone experiencing these issues, please clean the usb port with a needle. I was having the same problems and noticed there was a lot of dust and fibers in there from my pockets. The micro-usb also stays in a lot better!
[Xperia Z5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lemowill:
I held down my power button, volume buttons and let it vibrate three times. It worked! Apparently it had been charging just something was off with it.
[Xperia Z5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ohdev:
This may help others,

My neighbor's sony turned off on 1%, and does not want to charge, it gets warm, and when I plug the charger, the led turns red, then green and then it turns off with no signs of charging.

I tried the Power+ Vol Up trick but it did not work,

what worked for me is the following:

plug the charge cable, and as soon as the led turns red, plug and unplug the cable rapidly untill the screen turns on, then keep it plugged, this should trigger the phone to continue charging.

PS, try to avoid letting the battery reach 1%, sometimes the battery depletes without the backup needed to trigger the charging state, and on some phones like the htc sometimes causes the onboard storage to break, which will cost you a new motherboard!

[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Xyaren:
Hello,

can someone confirm, that the following is a general problem?

Enable Energy Saving (Via [quick] options)

Turn on Google Maps

Start Navigation to X

Wait for GPS Fix (GPS Symbol in statusbar stops flashing)

Turn screen off

Wait a few seconds

turn Screen back on and quickly watch for the gps icon

On my just-resetted M8 (6.0 Sense 7 - international - full stock) it lost GPS Fix while the screen was off.

As a check, I did the same with Power Saver disabled. Then it kept the GPS fix even when the screen was off.

Now, why is this important:

When using my M8 in my car, Android Auto will turn the screen off when connected to the entertainment system. So when Power Saver is enabled , navigation in Android Auto is broken because it will loose GPS Fix as soon the screen turns off.

Again, with Power Saver disabled navigation and Maps are working as intended.

Does anyone got a workaround ?

tl;dr: Power Saver breaks GPS when screen off
[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
So my friend's Z3C is damaged. The phone is working but the touch isn't. So I can't back it up via PC Companion because he needs to give permission.

He's on stock. No root no nothing.

Is there any way or software to backup the files via PC?
[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jack_R1:
Use OTG cable for connecting mouse. That'll solve most/all of your problems.

If you still need backup SW - then Helium Backup can do part of what you need (it encompasses Android's ADB Backup), and if you know your way with ADB backup - you'll be able to restore the backup without spending $$ on the program (though you might consider paying anyway, plus it's more comfortable).

[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] killerkuk:
Afternoon guys,

Before anyone says anything, I have googled this but found nothing, so this is my last resort.

I bought an S6 from japan, on the DoCoMo network. Running android 5.0.2. Model number: SC-05G.

It is unlocked (from a phone shop, unlock codes don't work) and I have rooted it with TWRP recovery.

This comes preloaded with Japanese bloatware that I really want to get rid of. I've checked some cyanogen and other roms but the build number is not supported. I wouldn't even mind english stock firmware.

My question is this, are there any roms that I can use on the SC-05G?

Yay or nay?

Thanks a bunch.

[One (M9) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] natali_ay:
Hello!

I bought a brand new HTC One M9, GSM factory unlocked and I'm wondering if I should root it already or are there any downsides other than voiding the warranty? I had Samsung Galaxy S3 i9300 before it and I had it rooted for 3 years so I'm used to having a rooted phone. On the HTC I'm not planing on changing the ROM (which I did constantly on my previous phone), I want to root my HTC so I can use Xposed and TWRP or CWM recovery (Still uncertain which is better).

So should I go for it or nah?!
[One (M9) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shivadow:
Nah. And this is my reasoning..

I was in the same boat, I9300 to m9, rooted to non rooted. At the time it was known to be dodgy to root and mess with an m9 and i also figured I'd wait till i could afford s-off.

I postponed it for about a year and a bit, absolutely no issues, didn't need to root for any specific reason except i had root on the samsung and missed messing with xposed.

Bought a new car and decided to upgrade the stock radio to a fancy pants pioneer sph-da120 for a reasonable £350. Then i found out about ARunchained for screen mirroring my phone on the pioneer and needed root so i could control the phone from said pioneer radio. Ended up sending the radio back as it kept overheating. No longer need root to control phone from the car radio.

THAT is the only reason i rooted and s-off'd.

So, xposed doesn't work with s-off phones and I'm not going to s-on again as it'll be a waste of money.

Xposed can easily brick your m9 if you use the wrong mods.

No other reason to root.
[One (M9) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] natali_ay:
Thanks for the reply, I'm still a noob when it comes to HTC, but do I have to pay extra for s-off? And can't I just root it and keep security on?
[One (M9) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shivadow:
Yes you can. But be careful what you mess with as it's super easy to brick the m9.

Unlock the bootloader, flash twrp 2.9.0.1, flash supersu 2.65, install busybox.

You can only flash roms that you have the base for. Marshmallow roms can only be flashed over a marshmallow base. Lollipop over Lollipop. To change roms as you please and not worry about base roms is where s-off comes into it.

S-off is only available via an app called "sunshine" which you have to get from their homepage. You must be pre rooted and it costs $25/£18 via paypal or credit/debit card. Very easy to do.
[One (M9) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] natali_ay:
Thank you! :) I'm not planing on changing ROMs, I used to do it on Samsung because, well, Samsung's stock ROM is **** lol

Anyway, I think I'm gonna wait a bit until I root it.
[One (M9) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrstabs:
Is there a clear step by step guide on here to rooting and flashing?
[One (M9) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shivadow:
Yes there is.

Just look for it.

Hi,

I just purchased a manufacturer refurbished ASUS Memopad HD7 ME173X tablet running on Android 4.2.2. I believe it was functioning perfectly at the time I purchased it. However, I manually checked for update through settings and followed instructions to install. During installation reboot it is now stuck on "Installing System Update" for at least 5 hours. When pressing power button a message "patching remaining system files appears". I cannot access the recovery menu/bootloader using the button combination.

I believe that the tablet was not rooted etc. However I really need your help to help get this tablet back?! :(
