Battery suddenly empty - phone turns off

[shirajzl]

hH, I've had Xperia E1 for a few months and noticed the problem above.

Every once in a while, when the battery is nowhere near being empty, it just drains out almost immediately and the phone shuts down. I can't turn it on again unless I plug it in and it starts charging with a red, flashing light.

I don't have many apps running and what I have I've tried switching off, but it doesn't matter since the battery drain doesn't happen regularly, but randomly.

Is there a way to fix it?

I was late for work recently because it died like that in the middle of the night and the alarm didn't go off.

I suggest that you try to repair the phone software using PC Companion..

Before repairing your device you may want to backup your information first. Check out this topic for more information on how to.
How to backup?

If the issue should still remain I think that this needs to be examined and fixed at a repair center. For more information about how to submit your phone for repair and where, contact your local support team.
