My z1 compact is not charging through the usb connector and whenever I charge it there is no lightning bolt indicator indicating that its charging and also the stamina mode icon beside the battery disappears whenever I plug it.
I never submerged it in water nor it was dropped or had any kind of damage, the only thing I suspect is the charger I am using, I am not using the default charger rather I am using a samsung charger, 1st I had it checked to a friend of mine who is a cellphone technician and a very good one, he told me that xperia phones especially z series are prone to this kinds of damage when using other charger or class a replica chargers, then I recalled that I was indeed using a fake charger and remembered that during that time there was a sudden disconnection of electricity or sudden blackout and sudden reconnection of electricity, fake charger cant handle sudden electricity changes so it might had and impact on my phone, so I sent it to sony center and waited for 3 weeks (minimum waiting time) then I received a call from them to pick up my phone but it was not repaired because the problem is in the board and it would be xpensive to repair (I have no more warranty) like buying a new unit they said,my phone still connects to my pc and I noticed that when I charge it my battery is not discharging but also not charging fast enough because I was charging it for 24 hours and it only went up for 1%, from 7% to 8%, then I left it for another 24 hours but the percentage is not moving up, I can still connect it through my pc though, who does have this kind of problem?
also will my phone charge when I charge it through the magnetic dock?I dont have any friends who have a magnetic dock so i cant check it and if I will buy one and it does not work then its another waste of money,since sony cant fix it anymore does that mean that my phone now will just be a paper weight,i am really disappointed,hope somebody could help me..tia
