  • I use the magnetic charge "port" so you don't need to open the flaps. Also, it proved to be more waterproof than my Garmin Edge 1000.

    Old post, but it was the page the forum opened on...

    Are you still using the Z3 compact and magnetic charger? Does it work ok? I've tried using a magnetic doc on mine and it worked fine for the first few months, but now it charges normally up to about 80% before it gets stuck and begins flashing back and forth between charging and not charging. It's annoying and means I have to use the little door which is now beginning to fail.

    A quick google seems to suggest it's a known hardware problem in the phone and since it's long out of warranty there isn't much I can do about it. Unless someone knows of a fix?

  • Yep. In fact I have it in my bag today because I'm heading to a beer festival in deepest darkest Essex.

    Mine isn't a Sony one it's a Magnetec or something similar and it sticks to the magnet port quite solidly and charging hasn't ever been an issue.

  • Might be worth me trying a different charger... would you mind sharing a link to yours if you can find it?
