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'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.

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.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI 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).

View 10 Replies View RelatedMy 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.

View 5 Replies View RelatedJust 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.
View 2 Replies View RelatedIs 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.

View 7 Replies View RelatedHow do i take the battery out of the x10 mini
View 1 Replies View RelatedOk people, I have found a way to extend your battery life enormously, to the extent that it is what it was advertised by Sony. Some of you guys may know that I have helped on a lot of other minor issues when the x10 first came out so am not lying on this.In the battery life thread, I have mentioned that last week, my battery was amazingly great where overnight, it only reduced 3-5% of the battery and a good days use only drained about 30-40% of the battery. I did not know how this happened but I have finally found out now after testing it 3 times.
My solution:
I turned off my phone, then turn it back on, used tasks killer right away because the phone when turned on, activates a lot of apps and then i killed all apps except my beautiful widgets and settings. And that is it, battery was amazing and you can use your apps as normal and battery life was as good as mentioned above.
Now, the problem that kills the battery where you will have to restart your phone again for the good battery life: When downloading a new app or updating from the market, the battery became horrendous again. When I did this, the battery overnight drained 25-30% and a days use drained over 60%.But all I did was restart my phone after installing a new app or updating and did what I mentioned above and the battery was back to it's amazing self.I have tested this 3 times and it works for me. It is as simple as turning off your phone and back on again so go and try it to see if it works for you.
I noticed a lot of people making posts asking the same questions time and time again, so I thought I would make a post for people to list all common problems and how to resolve them. I will edit the list below with every common problem, as they are posted. Problem List:
Keyboard
Problem: The default Keyboard is too difficult to use!
Resolved: Download the HTC keyboard from the link below, it is much easier to use than the X10 and default android keyboard! Alternatively, you can choose from a selection of keyboards in the Android Market

You can also customize your own HTC keyboard to your liking here:

Battery
Problem: The battery does not last very long!
Resolved: Doing this has worked for with every phone I have owned, just follow these instructions. Wait until your battery has completely drained (so the phone will not turn on). Then charge your phone to 100%. Repeat this process as many times as you want, until you feel like your battery is lasting long enough. Also, the more often you charge your battery the longer it will last, over time
Call Volume
Problem: The call volume is too low, even at highest setting!
Resolved: At the moment there is no setting or app that can further increase the volume, but there is something known as the "Sweet Spot". The sweet spot is a spot on the area of the phone, circled in the image below, that enabled you to hear better. Keep trying different spots of the call speaker to find the sweet spot.
This sunday (10/10/10) my X10 mini said an update was ready and I went forward at updated my phone (Firmware = 1.6, Core = 2.6.29, Version = 1.2.A.1.174). After this update the battery consumption is more than horrific. Even at standby the phone doesn't last more than 24 hours, this was NOT the case prior to the update. The phone itself and its functions works fine.
