Charging problems

Strengert — Wed, 17 Jul 2013 10:36:48 GMT

Hi all,

My 3 weeks old Sony Experia Z will not charge itself anymore.When i attach the adaptor noting happens and when i connect the phone to a computer, i've tried different ones, is does connect, and i can up/down load my files but is does not charge.

As i read on different fora i have allread tried to switch the phone off and on again. or hold the on/off button. but without the disired effect.

Offcourse i have not done any things out of the ordinary with my phone.

Does any one have an idea what the problem can be?

sounds like a faulty cable or a broken or bent pin on the usb port on the phone

the cable connects a 5v supply to the phone usb from the charger and as you have tried both the mains chager and computer then the above seems likely - a docking port would give you the answer - maybe take it to a shop and try the docking port or an alternative cable

Thanks Geoff, Do you know if this can be repaired under the guarantee?

if it's just the cable then ask them to replace it, if the USB is damaged then you might have a fight on your hands - should be ok though

hope it works out
