Sony Ericsson Phone charging problem? Don't murder the charger 1st.

The old models.

The new models.


Have you ever encounter that your sony ericsson phone(any model) sometimes cannot charge or not charging at all??? Don't bang your travel charger against the plughole first! Most of the time the charging connector is filthy. Here is some tips to help you:



  • Locate the charging pin from the right(old models), 1st and 4th pin(new models).

  • Try to see if the pins is clean and shiny means contact still good.

  • If is not, get a sharp object and scrape the dirt out gently.(Do it at your own risk).

  • Now test again see if its charging properly.

If is not working after cleaning the pins, that means you can start banging the charger or the problem causes by other parts. Send it in to Planet Mobile and usually will cost about rm30 to rm80 depending on which spareparts is faulty. No worries if you have smash the charger, to get a new compatible travel charger is only rm10 with 3 months warranty at Planet Mobile.


* You can clean all the pins if you have the time but remember do it at your own risk!
