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...

It looks about right, considering you've hardly used it. Now get 3 days of using the thing and that WILL be impressive!
I get about 4 days out of my SGS2 if I hardly use it, which is quite common since I'm at a PC all day and have my tablet at night (if I'm not at a PC).

I'll bet you if I took my Touch Pro out it would turn on.
Wait, nvm, I forgot the battery expanded. I should check if it still works. I need a new battery for it, but it should work. I should go check how android development is going for it.
The fuze forums are pretty much dead now. lol. I should buy an HD2 again and make sure I don't destroy it like I did last time.
I bet it works just fine. My first phone, a Panasonic GD-450 is 13 years old and it still works, but the battery only lasts for about 20 minutes

A new battery would cost me $1.30, but since I can only run android from Haret then it's not the same as flashing on the HD2 with NAND

Turn off all the lights in your house make it as dark as possible. Then ring your phone and look for the flash when it lights up. If it doesn't work go to another room and try again. This is always my last resort strategy before messing up the house looking for it. It's normally in my pants or shirt pocket.

This is why you should use a "Find My Phone"-thingy, so when you do lose it, like now; all you need is to press a button on your computer, and listen for the BEEEEEP (yes, that works in silent mode to)

Here's a new scenario. How much battery did it have when you lost it x hours ago? May be dead and that means you'll have to find it the old fashioned way.

BTW i am using ProxyDroid over wifi...
q&a?
I hadnt noticed it myself, I will have a look soon though
Same issue here..
Almost 200mb via 3G and 2GB on wifi.
It was done during the 1st week after flashing JB, it did the same after flashing another JB ver.
Hmm I never had this issue...1.5 GB for one month is a lot! Looking at the graph I think some app or data was downloaded in one instance (looking at the vertical leaps). And this was repeated at least 3 times within the month. Judging from the leap sizes the downloaded content was about 150-200 MB?
I am having this issue as well, the difference is that in my phone takes 8-10 megabytes per day. Using the better battery stats this is what I found
Do you have any idea what can I do?
Thanks
Sent from my C6602 using xda premium
My phone seems to have this problem to, android system seems to be using high volumes of data but I think it's doing it of a night when my phones in flight mode I have no apps running or widgets and so far within a few days 20% of my monthly data has gone
Does anyone have any ideas as to what this can be?

Just disable back up my data, i'ts under back up and reset in settings.
Mine uses very little, don't use wifi very often though. Have a 2gb data plan and wifi in the house is poor
Same here. Every rom has crappy battery life with data on. A lot of wakeups. On wifi everything is ok. Probably a ril problem, maybe some devs will figure it out.

I don't have the high android OS usage anymore but i still have crappy battery life with 3G on. Last night i worked 3 hours, didn't use my phone and it went down 10% o.o. Every forum has the same answer: 3G is a batterysucker, but this wasn't the case with my Xperia Arc and my Nokia e71, those phones gave me a great batterylife on 3G. I really hope someone can find a solution for this, because now i can never make it through the day with 3G, while with wifi i can make it through two days.
I posted a thread on Original Development area. Please post ideas there. Thank you!

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.

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.

About 10 mins agoMy battery was 60% off charger and shutted down. I plugged the charger and turned it on. It became 17%. I just opened xda on taptalk and wrote this topic, then suddenly noticed it became 88% and charging very faster than usual. It's 88% and says 4 mins until full charge.
Now after writing this it stopped at 95% saying 2 mins until full charge

Did you try to flash a .ftf file with flashtool? I'd give it a try, backup your data first, and make sure to completely wipe it
OK I'll try that as soon as possible, But now I don't have enough time to do that. I will probably do it after two weaks because currently I am having some exams.
Is their another solution that doesn't take much time to test/try until then?

There is nothing like something stopped working or app affecting the phone as I tried it with clean stock system.
OK luckily I didn't remove my first backup after I did the pcc, so no need to backup again. I will try with the flash tool when the ftf download complete.
