Sony Ericsson Xperia X1/X2 :: Battery Use And Charging
Jul 12, 2010
I've just started using my X2 as a music player and as expected that uses more battery than how I normally use the phone.I've plugged the phone into my laptop (with a genuine SE cable) and stopped everything I can in the task manager.The "backlight and power screen" says the phone is charging but the percentage is going down not up.The phone is just sitting there in standby with nothing running (as far as I know) - certainly no bluetooth or wireless.

My X10 doesn't like charging to 100%, whenever I leave it charging for long periods of time (ex. overnight) the battery will never be at 100%, it will stop at around 95%, then it will stop charging (the icon still shows charging but the battery life slowly goes down). The only way I can get it to 100% is if I unplug the charger for a few seconds, then plug it back in, then it will charge up full.

I have a feeling my my X10 USB port is somewhat broke. It won't charge whatsoever via the mains or via PC USB cable. I have had to purchase a plug travel charger with the 2 prongs in order to get it working. Would the software have played any part in disabling the USB port on the phone - which a software upgrade or flash would solve or would I be looking at a complete USB port replacement on the Xperia?

I'd like to charge my phone with the power off.However, while it charges, no matter when or how many times I power it down, it automatically powers back on.Because I normally charge it while I'm asleep, I don't like hearing any notifications, etc.Is there some way to turn it off and keep it off while charging?

So I left my x10 charger at a friends house and I won't be able to pick it up till friday, so I tried using my families b;ackberry bold chargers (they all have blackberry bolds for some reason O_o) and I keep on getting the same result, it wont charge past 2 percent... :l Maybe the issue will be solved when I get my x10 charger back but until then im using a flip phone from 10 years ago (y)

I bought my xperia x10 in tehran on 2nd july and after 45 days found that it is not charging. i took it to sonyericsson support and guarantee representative '' pars COMTEL'' on 23rd august, and they say the charging IC and the usb connector is faulty and they dont know when they can repair it.
is it right that when we trust a name like ''sonyericsson'' they treat their customers like this? weeks without knowing what they would do?

Previously my Xperia used to turn in by itself while charging i figured it out as an Intelligent Charging Circuit system,then i updated my phone and it stopped turning on while charging, even after 2.1 it is not resolved.although it stops charging when its powered on and fully charged but it dont when its off it neither stops charging nor turns on by itself, is it a problem if it is how can i resolve it.

I have recently encountered a problem with my Xperia X10, where I activated my MMS setting to receive MMS but in so doing, have apparently turned on the Internet access as well. In other words, everytime I turn on my setting to receive MMS, it appears my X10 automatically connects itself to the internet. If I turn off the internet connection, I end up not being able to receive my MMS messages .
My dilemma at this point is that when I received my last bill, it turns out that my phone regularly connects to the Internet on it's own (even in the middle of the night) and I got slapped with a large charge for Internet usage that I did not initiate. I was told that either I turn off the MMS Setting (to turn off the Internet) or I would forever be charged with internet access. Worse, I was told that whenever I need to access or receive my MMS messages, I would automatically be charged with connecting to the Internet aside from the regular charge of MMS.
I would like to know if what they told me is correct? It seems unfair that I will be charged 2 fees just to access only the MMS feature. Is there a way to be able to access only the MMS without accessing the Internet in the same breath?

While charging my X10 mini pro, the touchscreen becomes unresponsive. This happens when I connect to PC or power outlet.
Everything else works fine. All the 3 hard keys work. Touchscreen does not work even a little.
When I get calls, I cant attend. I cant even switch off as I have to tap the power off button shown in the screen.
Everytime I charge, I have to remove the cover and pull the battery.
Do know what to do. Having the phone for a month and I have this prob from start.
It leaves me red faced in front of all my friends as I have to pull battery everytime I charge. Very pathetic.
Alteast is there a way to attend calls without need to move the slider?

I try to shut down the phone to charge it but it keeps re-starting itself. I plug it in, power the phone down and it restarts. Same when I plug it in when it is already off. Is this normal?

Something strange happened a few days ago.I fully charged the battery in the evening.Then the next morning the phone (X 10) had switched itself off because the battery was completely empty.And I hadn't used the phone at all after charging it.I hope it's one of those things that happen only once but it was very strange how the battery could empty itself like that.Anyone have any idea about how it could happen?

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 just ordered the Xperia X10a. Customer Retentions gave me a great deal on it (Great deal = entirely 100% free, I figure I really couldn't beat "free" :P) and so I said "Yes, that sounds lovely" (not an exact transcript of my reaction). I now await its arrival in the mail. So I've been pretty damn excited about it. But then I did the ONE thing I told myself not to do: go trolling on the internet for all the negatives. I knew there were going to be negatives, that's the nature of smartphones, there's always going to be something if not multiple somethings. But I have to admit I was unprepared for the sheer amount of complaints over the battery life. Now I'm depressed (not really, but you know what I mean). Did I just order myself a lemon? I mean don't get me wrong, you still can't beat a free phone I suppose, but is it a free mobile phone, or a free "I need to get to a wall outlet so I can charge this thing because it discharged after only an hour and a half" phone, which isn't exactly all that mobile (ok, well it's mobile, just not mobile + useful at the same time -- I admit I was sort of hoping for the latter. Pipe dreams, what can I say).

I found this in a blog, and thought I would share it with my fellow X10 users Most people complain about the battery life...well the people over at xperiax10.net have tested 2 mugen power batteries along with the stock battery. Check the link for the great results Mugen Power Xperia X10 Battery Review ? Part 2 | Xperia X10 Blog. I thought this may help some people that may want to purchase a battery that will last longer, but are unsure which to buy.

I've been playing with my phone since the update to 2.1 and I suddenly noticed, by looking at the notification area, that my battery was getting critically low - but I hadn't had an alert, either onscreen (I don't think) or audible to tell me so Could I have switched it off accidentally, and if so, where can I switch it on again?

Just curious who has it and how it's working. After the firmware (20) update and the 1800 battery, I was getting about 3 days of battery life with light use (an hour or two of wifi, couple calls, Bluetooth on the whole time) and was very happy.The last 2-3 days, my battery is draining crazy fast. After 2h45m, it went from 100% to 50% without doing anything. I checked what was draining it and 52% was display. The thing sat on the counter in sleep mode. This happened yesterday as well. I don't have any power hungry programs running an I use Juice defender and task killer regularly.

Is anyone else having serious problems with the battery life? After fully charging the phone, I can't get more than 12 hours usage out of it, even if it's on standby for 95% of the time. I'm guessing something is seriously using up the battery somewhere but I'm not sure what. I've been to Settings --> About --> Phone Usage and it says where the battery has been used, but 40%+ is on Phone idle, and 40%+ is on cell idle (I'm guessing signal), but surely this shouldn't be happening, the figures on the Sony website give standby hours in the hundreds not less than 10.

Alot of x10 users seem to be using apps that are eating at their battery, but most people do not know which apps are causing this. So I created this thread for all X10 users to list any apps that they know eat battery very quickly, thus helping others, so they can remove the app(s) and gain more battery life

After a firmware update for the x10 adw was acting funny so i went back to SE home. after a month of use and getting used to the battery drain, i just went back to adw, and let me tell you OMG it saves battery. with SE home i would unplug at 7 am, and by 9 am i have 25% missing, this without touching the phone. today with ADW luancher installed it is now 12:55 pm phone is still FULL. AMAZING recommending it and reminding all of you its a MUST HAVE. its not laggy its fast and its beautiful.
