Xperia Ion battery power drops from 20% to 1%

Hello, I've got my new Xperia Ion phone.

The interesting thing that i've noticed that really bothers me that when my battery power reduces to 20% of power it drops to 1% after few minutes.

After that the phone shuts down.

I couldn't find any setting in my phone that do that, so I believe the reason is not the settings.

Did anyone experienced such thing and can help me to solve this issue?

Thanks

Vlad.

hello Ashok,

I'm having the same issue...my battery drops to 1% suddenly. I would like to try out your suggestion.

So...1> I need to turn off the built in power saver, and then 2> install battery saver pro

will this fix it?

Thanks in advance...

Hi urstrinath,

If you have sudden drop issue..then follow Nabeel's instruction:

http://talk.sonymobile.com/thread/128862

Do it when it is 'ON'...

although the vibration happens even when the phone is 'OFF'....note the battery percentage before doing the procedure, and observe when you switch on. If there is significant drop in battery percentage...your problems are over. If not..try a few times more.

Let us know whether it solved or not ...

hello friends,,, I also experienced the same problem, I've tried various ways but all to no avail ...

the problem is the battery no longer hold a charge, and the solution is just to replace the battery, and the problem is resolved, I've tried and 100% successful ...

so, for those of you who still have warranty take it to the service center, and if it is not under warranty you have to spend money to solve this problem ...

for sony to be able to think again how quickly defective battery xperia ...

I followed below steps

On Xperias with built in / embedded battery

Note the battery %. Force shutdown your phone by following this key combination

Press and hold the "Power Button" and "Volume Up" for 10 seconds until your Xperia vibrates 3 times. Now switch it on and observe the battery %. See if there's any significant drop in % ( 5+ % or more ). Also there should be produced a gap in the battery graph like this Battery Screenshot . Then most probably the problem has been corrected.

=====================================================================

when i was doing it my battery percentage was 29 after i turned my device again my battery percentage was 60

insted of drop it increased (a lot )  any thoughts 

 

would  it be fine as because battery  % increased or is it no good

I just tried this method. It was at 5%, went up to 39% after the method then started dropping down at a decreasing rate of speed to about 24% where it has stayed for the past 10 mins. I have no clue what is going on, if the phone is fixed or if i'm going to have the same problem again after charging. Please help as this phone has been a nightmare with battery problems for the past 3 months .

Hello All
Even i have the same problem with my z1
Initially the battery started dropping off from 39%, then from 49% and then 59% and now its dropping off at 80% to directly switched off
I have done the software repair,still it is the same
I couldnt find power saver app in running apps,it never comes up do no chance to select and turn off
So what do you think
Replacing the battery is the only solution

Got a Xperia T. At first my phone used to drain battery life rather quickly, within 3 hours of usage, it would go from 100% to about 30%, and as soon as it got to around 30% , within a few minutes the phone would die, and the meter would go from 30% to 0% in a matter of about a minute or so. Recently, it has started to die at 50-60%. Is there any solution to this? or is it something to do with the battery?

I've faced the same issue,  even the battery power droped from 40% to 1% couple of times.

I'm able to solve the problem partially. 

The main reason for this issue (in my case) is charging the phone from 20% battery level onwards.

Charge the phone fully and restart it couple of time. From next time onwards don't charge it untill battery % reaches below 10%.
