What should I do? I have a SE K750i and when I connect it to my PC it shows me a pop-up message: "Charging, Alien Battery",every 10 seconds even though i didn't changed the battery.

I am a little worried... where is the problem ?

There is no problem, the battery in your phone may be a non-genuine SE battery, maybe one of those off-the-shelves chinese ones.

If your battery is original, and despite this you get this message, then it may be defective.

Usually the phone charges slower in this mode (alien mode).

That message show many SE phones when non-genuine battery is inserted. I think it is a good feature to recgnize if your battery is genuine or not .

If it bothers you turn off USB charging in the service menu! I think you can do that on the K750?

@Paul_C - you cannot turn off USB charging on K750. Not at least using the service menu...

Anyway it's not a problem you should be worried of...

Ok, i am sure that the battery is genuine. I just bought the phone a month ago!
But i Forgot to mention that I am a software maniac, and I tried many softs on my phone.... even if it's one month old. Couldn't be that a problem ?

Maybe it IS ! With those add-on-softwares . . . I guess even your fone is NOT genuine anymore

@bogdan0, I think I've read about someone else on Esato who had this problem. According to what he mentioned, it could be that the contacts are dirty, so just clean the contacts on your phone as well as battery and see if that works.
