I'm having the same problem with my Z2 phone and Tablet. The phone has been changed with a new one by Sony but after 3 week the prblem start again.

Now every time the problem is present I have to hard reset the phone/tablet for 2/3 times then connect directly to the USB port to start charging normally.

This problem is never püresented with my Z3 phone, so I think is a software related prblem of the Z2 line.

Connect charging dock with phones original charger and cable, should work. It flashing because it needs more power. If charge from PC try 3.0 USB, or those what is in PC back.

I had the same problem on my Z1s phone. I think the problem was that one time i connected "inverted" the magnetic charger and because the charger had polarity, maybe some diode or other electronic component broke.
Could be this possible?
Someone could solve this problem?

Tks!

I had the same problem also it would blink connected then disconnected with the USB and never charged past 80% on usb. I could never get the magnetic part to work but a factory reset and using only very tight fitting USB allowed me to charge it to 80% with the USB.

The dokcing station worked fine in the first 2-3 weeks without this problem and the next test for me was to turn te smartphone off and try to charge it the result was : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rem9Oi4Wiiw
