The battery was about 10%, and I was downloading a game. All of the sudden, it froze and after a few seconds it turned itself off. I triend to turn it on, but I couldn't, so I thought battery died, and I left it on the charger over night. In the morning, it still couldn't turn it on, and anything I triend didn't work.When I press and hold the ON/OFF button, it just vibrates shortly and nothing happens. If I repeat that, it won't even vibrate until I pull the battery off, than put it back, and try again. Won't charge on the charger, won't charge on USB cable, won't turn on. I don't know what to do, I already tried Hardwer Reset (with and without charger) - didn't work, tried connecting it to the USB and holding the BACK button - still nothing. Sometimes, when I try to turn it on, it won't vibrate, and the red light flashes (that means the battery is low, right?). Sometimes it doesn't react at all, no vibration, no red light, nothing.
a few days ago I bought my SE X10 mini pro.I now have a problem with my battery. A few hours ago, my battery level was around 35% A few hours later, it remained at 35% indication.Since this couldn't be correct, i restarted the phone. Now, my battery indication was 100%. False again.I turned the phone off. It wouldn't restart.I tried the 'flash device method' by holding back button and putting in computer USB. No help.I tried SEUS. After that, phone switched back on, with false battery indication back to 100%, which is impossible.I noticed that during all this 'fun stuff', my battery refuses to charge. The LED indicator remains green without flashing, the settings screen doesnt say 'charging'. I know that the phone won't charge below 95% battery.So, the phone thinks the battery is 100%, therefore won't charge, and I'm pretty screwed, especially since I fear that once my battery drops dead, the phone won't be able to charge ever since it will think its 100% full...
I have been having problem charging my phone. IT just would not turn on and the battery is not charging as well . When I try to turn it on the red light flashes. I have also changed the battery but it is of no use.
I have updated my SK17i to ICS from GB over the past weekend and now when I connect it to a PC without admin privilege, it prompts for admin login to install driver which wasn't required under GB. I can pass up on making a data connection to the PC (though it would be nice to have), but right now without installing the driver the phone won't even charge.
Until now I have been recharging every night but now the battery charging indicator does not appear when plugged into either mains power adaptor or a USB port. It is 5% charged and falling.
Everytime i plug in the charger or try to connect it to a usb it doesn't recognise the charger and remains the same. It doesn't charge at all, What do i do?
I bought Xperia Mini Pro last december and have been facing problems in charging the phone since last week. Whenever I plug in the phone to wall socket, it does not charge. With much difficulty, it charges extremely slowly when connected to PC. Can anyone suggest what could be the problem and how can I resolve it?
When charging my phone (xperia x10 mini), the screen remains off while charging, but when battery is 100% charged the screen turns on, and it remains on until you disconnect the phone from the charger, like telling you "I'm already charged".
Now I can't charge my phone overnight, or I have to put something covering it, so the light doesn't bother me while sleeping.
And of course, I think the screen light will eventually break if it's switched on so many hours every day. Have you noted this or it's an issue with only my phone?
I have a Xperia mini and it keeps periodically coming up with a black screen and unable to charge, also the speaker has gone really quiet so i can't hear calls very well.
I bought the official Blackberry Playbook mini keyboard a few months ago. It worked once. Failed second time ( I assumed I hadn't charged it enough). Tried again recently, and it definitely isn't charging. No lights; no syncing; no pairing; no nothing. I've tried different chargers and different outlets, and the darned thing is dead. And, I am very certain it is not due to any product abuse, etc. It has just died. I either have a defective product, or is there some trick or reset button or some trick I need to know to charge this device? Or, have I just thrown away $120 on a piece of junk?
I am using Xperia Mini Pro nd had updated my phn till version 4.0.2.A.0.58 via phone only but this time the new version 4.0.2.A.0.62 can not be updated directly via phone its says to use PC COMPANION, while using PC COMPANION and selcting the update process its prompting to stop WINIT process to start downloading the update.
My SI No. is listed in the site and I got the update notification also. But when I try to update using PC Companion, am getting the below error message.
Recently i update sony xperia mini to android 4.0 battery backup is worst i charged battery full a night at morning it shows 81% battery i a have turned of wifi,gps,data brightness 25% which app can give better battery backup
I've been having problems with my phone recently, it doesn't recieve some text messages or show my missed calls. A friend suggested that it may just need updating, which made sense because I'd been getting update notifications, just hadn't got round to hooking my ohone up to my laptop. So I did just that and installed the 'companion' but when I try to update, it's asking me to insert a memory card. I've never taken it out! Not once. So i've turned the phone off and on again, as you do.
I just updated my Xperia Mini Pro, but after the update, a) new text messages appear at the bottom of the list of texts (so annoying!) and b) the newest text message does not appear on the list when I reply to it.Is this a bug? I really don't think it's a feature.
I have looked online everywhere for a replacement battery and am unable to find one! Can you please direct me in the correct direction, and the battery required is as on the url supplied [URL] 3.7V 950 mAh Li-Polymer battery Measuring 40 x 35 x 5.5 mm and weighing in at a scant 18 grams?way of China or EU as it has already been four weeks that my battery crashed and would only work if plugged in continuously and now just does not work full stop!
Just wanted to share my experience. I did the update on November 8. I didn't bother to do the backup. The only real important is the contacts and Google have them already. I used the Update Service tool and it worked like a charm. After restarting the phone I had to go through the setup wizard, which by the way is much improved. I now realized that I had lost all my downloaded applications. I downloaded them again from market. Most of them had all the old data, nice. Some games lost all history, no big deal really. My contacts, mail and calendar was downloaded from Google.
I realy like the fact that it is possible to send contacts by SMS. The images from facebook also works very well.
The one thing that I am still not used to is the unlooking. The habbit of pressing the menu button twice is had to kick. I think the new way with the slider is somewhat safer.Now I am waiting 2.2 with tethering. I hope this will be available for X10 mini some time in the future.
I have searched long and hard for an answer to this - perhaps it is obvious to everyone else.I want to put a larger sd card in and X10 mini. Is this the correct way?
1 select sd card in settings on the X10 then select unmount sd card.2 take out the card with the phone still switched on since I can't remove the battery there is no obvious way to depower it
3 put card in my pc's card reader and copy its contents to a folder on the pc (using copy and paste?), I have seen some mention of hidden files - is there any trick here?
4 put the new sd card in the pc and copy the stored contents onto it
5 put the card into the X10
6 what now - how do I get the x10 to accept the new card?
I'm just got an Xperia X10 mini pro, and I have a probably dumb question on how to use it: I can't seem to dial anything once I'm in a call
If I am calling a customer service line, or my voicemail, I need to enter keypad entries. However once the call begins there is nothing I can do to be able to press anything, unless I pop the keyboard out and back in again. I understand there is a proximity sensor but head isn't that big. Am I doing something wrong? I just updated the OS to the latest version of Android 2.1
I just upgraded my mini pro to ICS, it works fine in the first few moments until I realized that my phone can't:
1. Show any album art/cover from the music player. I've tried using the Sony Media Go to add the album arts to the file properties, still it didn't work. Only the 'default' songs from the product i.e brett5000: Globalization, missquerada: Far from love, and 2 others, can display their album cover
2. Update songs. Any new songs that I put into my phone through Sony Media Go aren't shown in the music player, only the old ones are present (though I've deleted it). I found the files when I opened it using a file manager program from the Play Store, but when I played it, none of its properties are present except the title of the song itself. It's not even present in the music player
I have a small problem. I have no idea how to install the apps on the SD card. I run out of memory very fast and I have to uninstall some old apps every time I fing some new ones. I don't know where to go and change the setting.
Since some time ago i've noticed that my X8 stopped charging from USB. When i first got the phone, it charged fine. I've charget it from USB couple of times, but mainly used the outlet charger.Now when i connect the USB it starts to drain battery even more and continues to do so untill i restart the phone. I've tried different cables with same result. When i connect the phone it shows an usual popup asking what i would like to do. regardles of what i choose i get the same result.
On some forum i've encountered a tip to remove the SD Card and try to charge the phone. I did that. At first it looked like it really started to get the charge. (level 72%, I'm using battery monitor widget and it showed that the current changed positive.But after a few minuted it stopped doing so and turned negative again. (Level 66%) i've restarted the phone, and the level dropped to 62%...Some time ago i've changed the stock 2GB card to a 16Gb kingston card.
My phone won't charge at all. I've plugged it into various devices with usb slots, and it still wont charge.Also when I try to use pc companion to attempt to repair it, it says no phone connected
