exuse me for my english
i bayed a new x8 phone before 5 days !
i think my phone is draining battry
so please how much days can you x8 phone can work without charging !
It depends My record was nearly 5 days without charging But I wasn't using it at all Just to check what time is it. Now it's more than 2 days (200+ SMS, phone calls, WiFi).
If You think Your phone is draining battery - turn off gsm data, use only 2g, turn off GPS etc Smartphones are not old phones, like Nokia 3310
+1
right answer
Agree for the above Answer..
Tipont charge too often..charge only when it is <5/10 %
every think is ok , evry think is desactivated ; i can use my phone only for one days , making normal thinks
like checking time or opening some apps ( not games)
please tell me how to solve this problem
my phone is new !!
for exemple my phone is 100/100 charged in 01:00 am
now it is 11:24 am , my phone have only 80/100 in charge ; and i have using it only for a couple minutes ; making one call !
What apps did You install? Download any task killer / task manager / ram manager. It should help.
im using advanced task killer latest version !
GingerDX on Stock Kernel with smartass CPU governor at default min/max CPU speeds (no overclock) and occasional usage - up to three days.
Now the question is ...
- Did you turn off GPS as recommended?
Turn off "Mock Locations" if it's enabled - it's a known bug in Gingerbread that having this setting enabled can cause battery drain.
- Do you turn off Wifi when not needed?
Since most people set the "Wifi sleep policy" to "Never" because of connection issues this can also be the source of your problem.
- Do you turn off 2G/3G when not needed?
Like with WiFi it should only be turned on when you need to access the Internet. Letting either WiFi or 2G/3G "sit there" because you have to be logged into Skype/GTalk/MSN/... does not help battery life.
If you're on the Stock ROM - that beast had a worse battery life for me than any custom ROM.
im sure that all off thinks are turned off
i turn WIFi only for some times then i turn it offf !
i still get the battery drain
!!!
what is the solution !
Turning off *Background data* and not just only *sync* provided a boost to my battery life.
I suggest the above
Actually,I think that you must dimmer the backlight of your phone~~
My battery has lost 10% in one night。
Battery drain is normal for our x8
Sent from my X8 using XDA
overclock your phone. you can set to lower cpu speed when the screen turn off. this help my phone not drain the battery at night.
Highly variable but
- battery capacity
- ROM type
- kernel
- 3G/HSDPA
- WiFi
- Android version
- screen-on time
- apps
- overclocking
to mention a few. Not to mention the inherently variable nature if X8 hardware.
My xperia 8's battery takes for 2 days max. And without wi-fi. This is smart phone, it's normal when battery charges out fast. Becides between the price and quality i think it's the best choice.
that's weird...
if you already turned off data, wifi, GPS, sync, bluetooth and everything else, it should be last longer...
please make sure again you already turned them off and only turn them on only when needed...

What firmware is installed on your phone?
Sent from the bathroom using the toilet
Hi guys,
I have the Razr I since 3 days now, i orderd it via ebay on a german website. I really like the phone, its amasing fast and works really great. I've compared it with the Galaxy SIII and Xperia Z from friends, and the Razr I wins on almost every thing we testet (loading webpages, opening apps, scrolling etc).
But since i use the phone, there's something wrong with the battery (i think!). The phone just randomly shuts down for about 40 till 60 times a day, my record for keeping it on is about 1 hour.
This is what I know for now, by observing:
- The phone is working correctly (on of off, doesn't matter)
- The battery gives an empy signal (but isn't)
- Due to the empty signal Android thinks the phone is empty and starts the automaticly shutdown process
- When the phone is off, i can just turn it on and the battery level is where it was before
- This cycle happens randomly, in 1 minute til 1 houre...
What i've done so far:
- Searched on google, a few similar problems, but no solutions
- Caliberate the battery
- Factory reset
- Disable apps that may couse a restart (but i don't think its a software issue tough)
- Playing with different settings, profiles etc
All those things doesn't change the randomly showing cycle that i've wrote above.
I also send an e-mail to the company where i orderd the device, so i maybe can return it and get an other one.
By the way, the phone was on JB when i received it.
Does anyone have any idea what the problem could be? Or is it just what my own conclusion is, a broken battery?
I hope someone can help thiking about my problem!
Cheers
Could be a bad flash...
A friend got almost the same problem with his SII. Or faulty battery
Check with that company and demand for a change

[Q] Weird battery issue, Razr i, after Jelly Bean
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2198774
Hi. I've updated my xperia t to Sony's official JB 4.1.2 9.1.A.0.489 firm.
I'm noticing that the battery life is no as good as expected. If I charge it up to 100%, and leave it locked all night, in the morning it has 80% , sometimes 75%. Some days, i can let it locked for 6 hours, and it's still in 100% ( strange at all). Of you look at the screenshots, it looks like it's always awake!
I've also tried with Battery Guru app, but I feel like it wastes more than it saves.
A friend has a Samsung galaxy ace ( i know, i cannot compare) and the battery literally doesn't go down if he doesn't use it.
Thank's guys.
P.S: Any idea about 9.1.A.1.138 firm? Changelog? availability?
Odp: Xperia t JB Battery Life
Battery problem is already known for this .489 FW. It's just a very first public release of JB, don't expect it will be completely bug-free. We just have to wait for the next releases with fixed this and that so the battery life would be correct again.
I have the same problems like you but I got used to them. For the first few days I was really pissed off and thought about flashing back ICS .195 (which had incredible battery life) but number of the advantages of having JB on my phone was the main factor of not going back to ICS.
That happened to me also lost more than 15% during sleep.
I disabled google search, facebook, android wakeup, etc and turned off auto sync and i lost 1.3% per hour.
In ics, i'm losing less than 1% per hour. So this is pretty decent to me. I'm still getting 3 hours of screen time.

I have everything possible running on my phone but don't know why the battery isn't lasting.
How?

The Sony Alarm is Fast Dormancy
The other one is most likely the combined total of a number of apps - to see them you need to be rooted, then you can access "Alarms" from the dropdown menu.
How do I use:
adb shell dumpsys alarm > AlarmDump.txt
What app..cant find anywhere how to do this?
I have a V but generally same things apply.
I think there are simply too many items switched on that would not allow the phone to fall into deep sleep.
Also, a battery usage of 1.3 % / h when idle would hint to that.
I have around 3000 wakelocks, too, but under normal day usage and not during sleep. During sleep there a few only, wakelock time over night is 0 %, and the phone uses close to no battery. Straight segment is the night time usage.
Compare with the pic from above, that phone was used lesser than mine.
Hello together I have startet this Thread in the ZL Forum as well but there are way more Z Users than ZL So maybe you guys can help me too? first my specs:
Model: Sony Xperia ZL C6503
Android 5.0.2
Build: 10.6.A.0.454
Kernel: 3.4.0-perf-g8fa3dae [email protected] #1 <- Vanilla Kernel I beliefe
Root: Yes with kingroot following this HowTo Link I now got SUperSU 2.46 installed
Bootloader: Locked - I didnt unlock it and I think the rooting didnt unlock it either
Apps: ~95
I have the following problems:
1. Ever since 4.4.4 my Sony ZL is somewhat laggy. With 4.4.2 I had a really smooth experience but since 4.4.4 its been a dirt road. I am happy that Sony still brings us the newest updates with Andorid 5.0.2 and soon 5.1 but I hate that my user experience drasticly decreased. Not only do games lag since Lolipop, now the UI interface is lagy and my browsers (Dolphin with Jetpack) lags. Its just a big **** up! Its not smooth anymore and it doesnt make fun to wait several seconds (3-5) before apps open or close. I have no longer any task killer, with my last it felt to decrase performance instead of increase.
2. I have a heat issue with the phone somtime it gets really hot really fast.
3. Battery doesn't hold a whole day anymore. Could be casue the phone is 2 years old already but sometimes I have really bad battery life. If I turn on GPS I can forget to use my phone cause battery dies within 3 hours and apps just collapse under the heat.
I have Stammina tunred on and @30% Low Battery kicks in. @15% Battery saver tunrs on.
Battery drops from 12% -> 0% and turns off phone. Sometimes I get to 8% and then 0%
I would like to fix those issues and I need your help and advise. Yesterday I was almost to the point where I threw my ZL out of the window but I decided to give it a last chance with some help of the XDA community. So for my phone you are the last chance otherwise I will throw it out.
My Problem: I dont really want to completly start fresh and install all apps and configure everything again. I have Titanium Backup insallted (but I dont really know how to use it). If I have to completly start fresh I will probably get a new device casue there I will have to do the same legwork anyway. Only if money is thight next month I will stay with the ZL and do it all over again.
So can you guys help me to fix my problems? My biggest problem is the lag issue. I can life with the allright battery life and the heat issue but the lag drives me insane.
Edit:
In the past I already tried to root my phone while I had 4.4.4 but at the time there was no root available yet and some tasks failed. Not sure if that had any impact.

You could try to change the gouvenor of your CPU. I use interactive. It saves battery and the phone doesn't heats up so much (its still really hot sometimes). You Phone also becomes more efficient, because it only clocks fast if you need the power. You can do that with the PACPerformance Application or Antutu CPU Master as example.
If the interactive gouvenor doesn't helps, you can still try performance, this will give more power to your applications, but degreases battery life.
The heat comes from the old Snapdragon S4 Pro Processor that needs to clock most times at the maximum clock speed and it has no real thermal throttling. One time my Phone was at 100°C. Then the Android Operating System started to shut down the phone. The screen also started flickering.
After you got the 5.0.2 Update your Phone should feel much smoother.
maybe can with lollipop 5.1.1 :angel:
Hi I will try that! Thx for the answer.
Hello everyone
I recently bought a used Xperia Z1 (C6903), which came with Lollipop 5.0.2 installed (Build .270). It has a defective screen, which is going to be replaced shortly. I mostly use it with a mouse via USB. Other than that, it is perfectly fine.
On Thursday, I inserted my SIM card on the device and installed the latest build available for this device, which is 14.6.A.1.216 (Lollipop 5.1.1) via Flashtool, making sure I did a factory reset. On Friday, I rooted it using KingRoot (promptly replacing it with SuperSU) and, as I did my research first, installed Wakelock Detector to compare the battery between each Android version. On 5.0.2 battery was pretty good, maybe because the phone didn't have the SIM card inserted, but still used WiFi and had a lot of apps which were left by the previous owner (Such as Facebook and FB Messenger, which both are battery hoggers). Even then, the phone had tremendously good battery, managing to reach 3 days on a full charge (I observed that before buying it). The only problem was that the phone overheated a bit.
Now that I have installed 5.1.1, things got worse. The only good things are that the overheating problem is gone and the performance seems a bit better. However I saw that for many, the battery was way better on 5.1.1 than on 5.0.2. This isn't the case for me. The battery drops approximately 1% each 30 minutes, with the screen off. I don't have mobile data on, as I always use WiFi, so the radio active bug doesn't affect me (right?). I have disabled most, if not all useless apps or things that would keep using the phone's resources. I disabled them, not uninstalled them because the phone has a problem with root permissions, saying that system is not mounted as R/W but still giving apps root access and they can disabled apps just fine. Currently I have none of my apps installed with the exception of Wakelock Detector, thanks to the battery drain and the defective screen which prevent me from doing much. STAMINA mode is on, but I don't notice it working too well, as it doesn't turn WiFi off when the screen is off, even though that option is turned on. I cannot deliver an exact screen on time as don't use the phone that much, but it is average 3-4 hours.
Wakelock Detector tells me that the phone has been awake by 12%, even though there aren't any wakelocks nor apps that would take batery. I would have tried with BetterBatteryStats but it is a bit confusing to use for me. Most people here on this phone's XDA forum complain about the battery in Lollipop, but Kitkat has provided them very good battery life.
Is there any way to fix this? I will provide anything that is asked, such as screenshots of Wakelock Detector, etc.
Should I downgrade to 4.4.4? (Build .157 or whichever you recommend) or perhaps install a custom rom based on 4.4.4, like iHackers? I would test them myself, as it is the best way of telling the difference, but I have a very bad connection and downloading files over 1GB+ takes 5 or 6 hours, only if it doesn't disconnect automatically. The most important things for me are the performance of the phone and the battery life.
Thanks in advance, and sorry for my bad english.

Right. I will use it, thanks for the tip. As you have to downgrade to KitKat in order to install custom recoveries and the like, I already did so. And I discovered something new, which wasn't on Lollipop. KitKat's battery stats show that 39% of the phone's battery is used up by the screen, even though I barely use it and it is on the lowest brightness possible. Other than that, another culprit is the mobile signal, which shows a high usage of battery.
EDIT: I have now installed the rom and indeed, the battery problems seem to be gone. Battery isn't dropping as it did, and Wakelock Detector says that the phone is now 1-2% awake
At 1 point, 5.0.2 had a lot of battery problems and performance issues
Are u facing any on MX now ?

So far, battery has been perfect the phone easily lasts 1 day and still has 40% left. I guess that could be better, but I am satisfied with it
One thing I have noticed is that even though the ROM has much bettery battery management than the stock rom, it feels somehow slower. In developer options, the "Force GPU rendering for 2D" option is enabled. I disabled it and weirdly, the phone seems to be faster and smoother, like it was before. The opposite of this should be happening, as I've read that it instead makes the phone smoother than having it ticked off

Why did you change? I just installed mx rom now! Seems pretty good so far, but still too early to comment on the battery
There's no such issue with this update.
I'm sorry to say this, but things are now where they were before I flashed MX Rom
Three days ago the battery started draining like before, with high usage of the process "Android System", approximately 30%. The screen also has high usage, but really shouldn't as screen on time is barely one hour. I also learned how to properly use BetterBatteryStats, and it reports that the device has 100% no or unknown signal. The phone also is doing weird beep sounds around the camera area. I've factory reset the device, but it didn't do anything. In fact, it is worse now. Battery drain is approximately 3% an hour. And that is with WiFi, Mobile Data and almost everything else off. I also don't have any apps installed. The same happens with Android Kitkat. A lot of apps are also disabled.
