[Q] using phone while charging battery - Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

hey folks noob here sorry to say, first off glad i stumbled across this very informative site. will be seeing/ learning more here thats for sure.
i dont know if this a common problem or rooted to my own phone but, when on charge if you use the phone whilst charging the phone, it will not charge (id imagine charging the same level as whats being sucked from the battery) but i was always of the understanding when phones are on charge they don't really use the battery, surley this is a bug? The phone itself is amazing coming from an iphone 4. cant really say a bad word against it otherwise, loving xperia and my first android otherwise.
on a side note is 0.1m/ps the going rate for 3g or H as stated on this phone? im pretty sure i got 1meg with my iphone.
cheers for any input lads.

Anyone of you 39 thats viewed not charged your phone yet?

Yes that's normal to loose battery percentage using the phone while charging especially if you charge it by usb port.
How much your charger output in mA?
Mine is 1500mA

hey mate thanks for the reply, no thats with wall socket charging not via the usb port on comp etc. ill see if i can fine out the charger output. :good:

the Sony charger just can't provide enough power to hold up the thirsty quad core CPU when it fully loaded like playing games. My experience yesterday when it was low on battery ~5% and plugged in with the bundled charger, the battery level kept dropping while I was playing candy crush and eventually it shut off itself. I tried another charger from Note 2 and it holds up better and the output current is 2A for that charger.

Use a tablet charger ora note charger as said :thumbup:

If you use bigger charger and play games than the phone will heat up and will explode.

Paranoia?
Not too sure what games might cause that, but I charge using the Nexus 7 2A charger AND do compute intensive tasks (games, benchmarks, etc) at the same time - got a wee bit warm but if it blows up i'll definitely be the first to know.

Overheating

Hello
The day before I got my Lg O2X and am now experiencing overheating (I think). The app which I have installed shows 42C while charging the battery is a bit warm.
Can anyone suggest me a good app so that I can confirm it?
And yeah I live in India so temperature is a bit high over here 32C when I posted this.
Update: I just noticed as the battery reached 90% charging it started to cool down at the moment it is at 36.7C at 96% (with no change in placement of the phone).
Ya man..the battery of every device heats up while charging and yes i also live in India and if u use ur phone while recharging it goes upto 42°C..
Try not using while charging..
Cheers

Do note that heat is directly proportionate to the amount of power the phone uses. Generally I find custom roms/kernels to be more power hungry than the standard ones.

Mine overheates only while I'm playing and charging in the meanwhile, or in car, navigating and charging.. It's a lot of battery consumption and totally normal..
Leaked GB 20i (topogigi) has a good battery life, the only thing is a battery drain in data mode, but for instance wifi is going really well!

Most people say it makes their battery cycle longer and battery rarely goes to 40C!

[Q] Overcharging?

Quick question: If I leave my phone charging all night, when it gets to 100%, will it keep charging and make my phone explode?
And if it doesn't and somehow just stops receiving a charge once it's full, will any electricity be used?
I charged whole night and its safe and good.may depend on voltage. Wait for some better answer and check it.

When your phone gets full charged, device have cut off system, n will stop charging.
It won't explode.

LoL if it were only that simple... Anyways I left mine on the charger for almost a full day without use and no harm has come to it. Still has the same battery life as before.

You should have no problem with overcharging. I think the Note manages the charging at 100% by using the battery for a time and then charging again for a while. I often have the Note in my card dock for extended trips where it sits fully charged. My battery usage is still the same so there seems to be no problems.

I'd agree with this statement. To illustrate this, you can use an App to track the mV value of the battery rise and fall whilst still on the charger at 100%.

Losing battery with charger connected

Recently I noticed that my phone is losing charge while charging, yes im using it but I still think I should gain charge and not be losing it. Is anybody else have this problem?
I get this problem the most when using MHL adaptor, I can be watching a film, from the sd card, and lose almost 60-70% of battery (screen brightness at lowest, and stock charger) is there a way to turn the screen off and use hdmi that I have missed that can help?
Sent from my C6603 using xda app-developers app
Probably the MHL adaptor only accepts 500mAh input. The USB standard, instead of the rated 1500mAh the original charger provides.

Try that to turn off the screen. Needs root.
Thanks, I'll give that a go
Sent from my C6603 using xda app-developers app
If you use non sony cable, stock charger will charge with only 500mah.
Use proper charger and usb cable.
I have afew micro usb cables and, every one of them have different charging current. Find the best cable and charger with nova battery monitor application from market.

Wrong
Daniel ! You need to ensure your adapter isn't charging on SSM3 mode. This was the case with me, I disabled it and it fixed the problem.
Are you the guy that is **** at basketball ? thought so ...
What do you mean SSM3? Are do I know you?? Haha
Sent from my C6603 using xda app-developers app
losing charge can happen on a proper charger too depending on the use of the device - obviously, aside from trying to get the battery hungry screen turned off you can also turn all radios off that isn't used. kill very battery hungry tasks (normally killing tasks for battery purposes is no good idea, but if one have gone crazy, go ahead and kill it ) you can also try to lower the cpu's max frequency, but of course not so low that the movie can't get played.. hope this helped a bit

No.

No, it wont cause any damage.Also, leaving it connected to the charger overnight will do nothing. You can't overcharge a smartphone battery, they are protected against it.

You can read this info too on the XSP's user manual pdf, sony stated about the battery there
Just make sure you use original plug

Battery won't be damaged by much while doing this. It would just be slower charging if you're using the normal 5W wall plug, or even see the battery draining while charging through connection with computer (via USB).
im gonna say yes
hmmmmmmmm

There is no charger in the box... Just a USB cable! Using my old Samsung charger! Works fine.

You should never attend a call while charging and you should never touch your phone to you ear while charging
Many people died within last 2 years because of this...
And you should attend phone calls with left ear as it takes less radiations than the right ear

Yes it will increase charging speed.
But the battery life cycle will be affected,
So my recommendation is not to charge with any other charger.

When I'm far from home I carry my Samsung charger, as it gives away 1Amp. But when I'm home I always use my Moto's.
This way, I don't overuse the Sam's charger and keep things ballanced.
