I am in the same boat since doing the OTA update to Lollipop. Is Sony going to admit there is a problem and commit to a date to issue a release that fixes recharging troubles? If not how do we downgrade to 4.4?

ease, find us a way to get back the alast Android version "kitkat 4.4.4" because I have been facing alot of problems with the latest version "lollipop", the battery dies fast and it takes alot of time to charge!! Plus that I can't use my mobile when charging, is there is any way I could have kitkat instead of lollipop?!!
Please contact me soon because my device driving me crazy since I have updated it!!

Hi everybody... i had the same problem.. slow charging and high battery consumption, and most of it because of AndroidOS and Cell standby....

but by disabling the backup & reset from settings, the problem got partially solved and the power consumption got better...

hope this would help until Sony gets us a real solution.

Hey there,
I'm in Marshmallow now.
My phone charges but takes around 4 hours to charge from 15 to 100%.
It was around 3 hours max.when I was in kitkat.

Thanks

i recently also started having a lot of problems with my xperia n i already checked any possible solution to those, its like the phone has a life of its own n seriously hates me! lately i keeps going onto slow charging mode n i cant do anything about it, the last time i tried to charge my phone (20-30 minutes before this post) it said that it will take 17HOURS!!!! what is that about? im not using anything in my phone for the past day and my battery life goes from 100% down to 1 in between 7-10 hours that is some kind of a joke! n to top it off it constantly overheats im getting sick n tired of those issues now, i even tried changing the charger, the cable and even the source of power but nothing works, if anything it's only gotten worse!
