Hey people,
My phone had sudden death at 38% battery life.. I started to freak! I tried charging it with a few different chargers and no luck! This is what seemed to work.. I plugged it into the USB on my computer.. Waited a bit... held down the power button + volume up + volume down all at the same time for 6 seconds and then it vibrated and went into charge mode.. Never had to do this ever before. Electronics though... sometimes they fuck up its been a great phone for the past couple years.

same thing here, just noticed today there Is a white led light flashing about every 7 seconds , I tried charging it but to no success also tried to connect it by usb to my computer , with no avail, it wont turn on I tried holding the power button for a few seconds to see no change in its condition, its seems to be asleep , it was working just fine in the morning and I knoticed a few times that the wifi would turn off by itself when battery level was more than full it would happen randomly , it was different than the low battery mode .
sure wish they could come up with a solution quick or give us a new product . I paid a lot of money for this phone and I'm not letting it die on me now

I bought my Sony Xperia Z3 Compact last June 2015, and last November 2015 it experienced sudden death. I had it fixed at the Sony Service Center. After a month from the repair, it happened again. It would just suddenly turn off and wouldn't charge. I had it fixed again and this happened for the third time already. Now, it won't turn on or charge again. I tried to hold the power and volume up button. Sometimes it would vibrate and sometimes not. Afterwards, I charged it but there's no light indicating it is charging. What to do? My phone has been going back to the service center three times already...is there something wrong with the unit itself or the system? I don't understand why it keeps on happening and the unit hasn't been with me for a year yet.

I like to thank you guys for helping me to access my phone which was frozen. Thank to your expert advice got my phone running in seconds. After trying for 4 hours. Used your battery simulate. And it worked like a charm. Thank again for a brilliant back up.For the guys with similar problem just hold yourpower key and volume down button. It definitely worked for me...

My boyfriend has been using his Sony Xperia z3 for over a year now and yesterday it just suddenly turned itself off and nothing is working to turn it back on...
Someone told me that sony has promised that if the device bought from them breaks in the first 2 years you are free of the repair charge, but is it true? If not, does anyone know how much the repair costs? Like is it worth repairing or should we just buy a new phone instead?
