Heavy battery consumption by dialer :(

Dialer consuming 96% of battery, so battery drains within 5 - 6 hours after full charge.
Anyone knows the fix..? Tried disabling settings >sound> disable quiet ring on pickup, pocket mode and flip for speaker but no use.
Using rooted stock ROM, data2ext3

Dialer for what little knowledge I have is for the phone signal. Might be you haven't got good network.

if you know your in a bad signal area, switch to Airplane Mode, seriously saves battery

No chance for that I guess... Also using only 2g...

ok ive looked into this, that list show the usage not the total drain in the phone so its not a true figure.
there's a app in the market which is free and it show the breakdown for the entire phone inc cpu usage, battery used and expected life of phone etc, as im not sure this is the dialer that's your problem here.
ill have a look for the app and host the link

[Q] Lt25i Xperia V - battery drain issue

Hi all,
I am new to this forum...just quickly asking if there is any Lt25i user on this forum having the same issue with the battery. I've been using it for about 8 months with a stock rom (4.1.2, all updated). It is good device in generally apart from the battery which drain itself in about 8 hours or 9 hours of normal office worker use (you know, reply 20 or 30ish msgs or a couple calls total 30 mins tops, play around during lunch time, on a HSPA+ network, not LTE, about 20 apps installed on the device and no games at all).. and sometimes you can see the battery percentage drops down by one or two percent when you have been whatsapping continuously for about 10 mins..That's so much quicker than the other phone that I have (Galaxy S4). any one experiencing the same issue? what would you recommend? I am planning to flash the rom but not entirely sure which to choose. Your response is appreciated.
Ray

Youre not alone buddy. Although to many causes frustrations, if I'm just texting (whatsapp) I just leave it on Edge, or disable mobile data when im not using the phone. It's when I'm surfing the net that I'll leave it on HSPA+.

A lil battery optimization even on this 'tiny' battery by 2014 standards could have gone a long way.

To be quite honest, 5.5 hours of screen on is pretty darn awesome for any Android phone except behemoths like RAZR MAXX or Galaxy Note models.

However, with HSPA+ always on I can only get around 3.5-4 hours SOT at 15 plus hours on battery. The OP should install BBS and check what eats his battery on the background. 8 hours is pathetic.

[Q] Kitkat upgrade regret

I am starting to regret my decision to upgrade to KitKat 4.4.2
My Z1 C6906 was almost flawless but now there are major issues:
BATTERY DRAIN- The phone is running down at a much faster rate then before the upgrade.
CAMERA FREEZE- The camera takes longer to startup and often locks up right after initializing. This is random but very annoying.
There are also various minor issues but I would appreciate any suggestions on how to fix the two major ones first.

We know that, we love that, we know that, we love that. ..lol..

No fix for that...
We all know Sony is using different parts in their phones (lcd, memory chip's and obviously many more parts) and "half" of devices are working great on 757 (like mine) and "half" of them are working...well not so great on same firmware...
Sony is preparing new update but I really doubt they could fix something like that...
I mean...if you have lousy screen or digitizer that's something software can't fix - it could make ut a bit better but it'll never fix it to work without problems...
I'm reading all that threads where guys like you posting all their problems and I could be very happy with my luck...
I have had three Xperia devices and all were extremely good...
I would never buy anything except Sony...
I'm buying phones only from t-mobile (if I want locked bootloader) or in Tele2 if I need unlocked.
Never online (clove, ebay...) and never used...

It'll end with 30 hours and 6-7h screen time.
Camera, from locked screen, is up in a sec, so no problems there...

Nope, I'm on NUT ROM 757, deodexed and rooted.
I keep brightness up to 70% ( between 60-70% when I'm out) when I'm out (I have to, can't see the screen otherwise) and on 20-30% at night and I'm always getting between 25-30 hours of battery life plus 5.5-7h of screen time...

3. Not sure if batteryguru is usefull at all
4. 18 hours is decent if u ask me
5. I see 17% on phone. Call alot?
Is ur auto sync on?

@Riaes
I know it's not going to help you a lot, but for comparison's sake, with a screen time of 4 hours, sync on, wifi on, location reporting on, stamina mode on, after 39 hours, I got down to 18% battery level. But, there is a catch, I am still on 4.3, not KitKat. If you want, I can also post some screens, but this is pretty much it.
So, by the looks of it, your KitKat is a bit of a battery hog, at least for now.

Hi,
After I uninstalled Battery Guru it had a better life, also, I saw that you played some Nintendo DS emulator there, heavy emulators like this one consumes lots of battery, that's one of the motives for this "low battery life". Also, I don't think 18 hours with 4 hours SOT is that bad.
I'll see further later to see if there's anything I can do to help better .

Battery draining while on WiFi

Hey guys,
Take a look at what is happening to my battery while on Wifi below. This keep-awake only happens when on WiFi. I tested it yesterday by being on LTE all day and got 20+hours with 40% battery left. Today it will be drained in half that. Having WiFi on seems to keep the phone awake and it drains steadily in the background. I have keep wifi on during sleep off so I'm not sure what is up.

Wifi does tend to use more battery and have more wakelock

Thread moved to Q&A as the OP was asking for help.

Apps will usually sync more often if they see that you are on WiFi.

is there to make the phone NOT scan for new networks once you have connected to a wifi network?

You have Always Allow Scanning unchecked, right?

Sure I get that, but since when is battery life on LTE 5x better than when in WiFi? It's always been the opposite for me.

Tried turning off Wifi based location services?
Under Settings --> location.
Since you have Wifi location services off when Wifi is off, could explain the difference in wake locks.
Location services feed into a lot of other services, like Google Now, which ramps up the more data it gets.

I am having the same problem, more consumption with wifi on than mobile data, did you find a way to fix this?
