I am using Xperia ZR . Recently this handset was dead due to water ingression, Sony service centres refused to service it.Then I did my research and was successful, I found one local repair store.
Now my handset is working but I lost the camera.:(
Due to water contact battery was also affected. After repairing the repairer put some crapy duplicate battery.
This Battery drains very fast.Discharges instead of charging while using on 3G mode/gaming.
Is this battery problem or handset(motherboard) problem.
Will this problem solve after putting original battery BA950?

After water damage this might be both - if you have a short circuit somewhere on the board from water deposits (salt), it might be draining your battery. In addition, replacement OEM batteries are 99% crap.

Sometimes after restarting the phone battery level indicator drops down like 20-30% or even more.i.e before restaring phone,say battery level is 30% and then after restarting it drops to 7%.Sometimes it suddenly restarts on its own.
Should I purchase Battery from Sony service centre or not?
