Connect your phone to a wall charger > press and hold power & volume up for 10 seconds > let it charge for 2 or 3 hours

Did it worked ?

Guys, I am soon going to try this, and many said this worked.

Equipment required:- 

- Sony Xperia Z/ZL/ZR/Z Ultra/Z1/Z1S/Z1f/Z1 Compact (Sorry, I am too detailed)

- Magnetic Charger

- Micro USB Charger (in basic terms, your normal charger)

Reason:- 

Sometimes, the device seems to 'forget' how to charge, thus this method shall work

Instructions:-

1. Leave your device to charge with the normal Micro USB charger for 2 hours, and try to do volume up + power on method

2. If Step 1 doesn't work, connect the magnetic charger to the device and leave it to charge for about 30 - 45 minutes

3. If your device seems to react by turning on, then leave it to charge for a bit longer

4. If it seems to be working completely normally, then you can go back to using the Micro USB cable

If:-

The device doesn't do anything differently after leaving it to charge on the magnetic charger, leave it for longer than what I stated previously (maybe 1 - 2 hours) and if nothing happens, then try and contact Sony, or take it to a local shop.

So guys...

So guys, I hope this works for you guys, as this may/may not work for me. Alternatively, you can try and get a test or something done, so you can ensure it isn't a hardware problem (water damage, dislodged battery etc...)

Kind Regards,
