Hey Folks. Try charging your Sony T3 with a 2 amp charger, rather than a 1 amp charger, which is common for all regular USB wall chargers. In time, I would expect to see more 2 amp wall chargers become the norm. For those new to electronic devices, it is the common power/amperage for tablets. How can you determine what the charging unit puts out? Look for the "Output", or "O/P" info; the suggestion should read the watts as well. Eg, "O/P: 2A 5W MAX" With this charger I'm now see the little red light on the power switch lighting up, and the corresponding charging icon found at top right of screen. Hope this helps some of you.
