my problem is that it charges the battery up to 100% and as soon as I get it off charge drops to 99% because it goes away? before updating the cell to 100% as I lasted lasted to the iPhone, is now impossible..! since I switched updating 253 I've this problem but they are not able to solve in any way, I thought it was a bug in the update and what not given much importance, but when I saw it, despite having done upgrade to 4.2.2 from pc compation i have not solved the problem remained .. how can I do to fix it?
The long awaiting LP is here.
Lets test the battery.Post LP Battery Usage here.

It charges very slow.. I used to charge using my laptop USB.. I kept around 2 hours and charge increased only around 20%.. It was fast in Kitkat.
Oh. Im glad im not the only one facing this. Any solution or we may have to wait for a bugfix?

I tried with Both USA and TW Firmware.. Even tried after full reset.. Still same issue.. I think we have to wait for bug fix or any work around solution ..
I am using the US version, not rooted everything stock. When I installed I faced very heavy drain, even with a charger the battery was going down. After a few reboots everything is back to normal. Battery life is nearly identical to kitkat.
Attaching the screenshots, I am getting more than 4 hours SOT easily with wifi on all the time.

Pretty Impressive Battery life on LP
Battery problem on C5502 (stock 5.0.2 Customized TW fw)
Hey guys,
I think I might have a problem here, I did OTA update over 10.5.1.A.0.283, got 10.6.A.0.454. Everything seems to be working fine, the system is quite smooth, yet battery life is worse than it was!
Cell standby and the OS seem to be consuming way to much battery, my reception isn't perfect, yet I checked in Cell standby and signal loss is at 0%.
I do have STAMINA on, yet according to CPU Spy the phone never goes into Deep Sleep. Isn't that suspicious?
You'll find a few screenshots attached to this post to give you an idea what I'm talking about. I'll try to flash the full rom today and see if it helps, while I'm typing this message FlashTool is creating an FTF file so that I can flash it later. I'll keep you posted.
Also, if anybody needs the FTF file, here's the torrent file link:

I have similar problem. For me the biggest consumption comes from google play service and android system. Really annoying...

From my point of view, it totally depends whether you did an OTA update or flash the new ROM. In my case, I have the Deep Sleep state active for a lot of time, and here's the screenshot:
Did you make a factory reset before/after flashing? Most time this helps.
Think the scan location when wifi is off option (in wifi setting) has effect on the google play service.
Also I am testing what exactly that stamina clock option within stamnia setting does. It seems it affects the battery in a not necessarily good way.
This is annoying. Sony includes all these features that are basically rubbish...

Hi,
I installed lollipop onto my ZR via the PC Companion a week ago, and I used a clean install (repair). My battery life is very bad compared to kitkat. I don't use my phone often, mostly it is in standby mode with mobile data enabled and stamina mode enabled (I added a few applications to stamina mode white list: gmail, facebook messanger, etc.). With kit-kat I had to charge my phone every 3 day, but now I have to charge it every day!!! this is 3 times worse than kitkat. If I check under power management - battery usage, I see a few apps have several hours of 'mobile radio active' (mostly gmail, chrome).
I have searched for this on internet, it looks like it is an lollipop related issue and not a sony related issue. Lollipop has this issue since 6 months now , and they didn't do anything to fix this (there are tons of forums posts about this on reddit, and on other places). I have the feeling Android is getting worse in every new version, and Google hire the most ****tiest developers of all time. They don't even answer to the thousands of user complaints of this issue. I will never touch an android phone in the future.

Just got my zr update to LP 2 day ago. For now seem like the battery life worse. Need to factory reset after this hopefully that help .
Did India LP update OTA two days back and was surprised see kit ain't charging fast and also discharging quickly. And the main battery consumption was by Album photo analyser services. .. have disabled it and seen significant difference. .
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.

Hi,
I would not worry to much if your device is 30+ it's normal. Now if its touching eg
50.. 60 + C start worrying.
My phone is at moment 31.2 C
Just remember...
Temperature, also depends on "other" factors also.
eg.. If you have an phone case /cover,
Temperature of your surroundings can play
a role.. etc
What workload it's doing. fo long period of time.. eg games, movies, music etc
But 30 C plus, is normal.
I sometimes let my device run over 40 plus.
Good luck
Is this something related to marshmallow??
Only when wifi connected then temp gOes up otherwise its normal below 30
i am getting same amount of heat, residing in Karachi and updated to MM. ?By the way, how is your battery life? for me it simply sucks as compared to Lollipop. I even factory resetted.

As far as battery life concerned.. my battery is not draining.. i am getting the same amount of battery as on lollipop but performance is much better now
Hello.
I'm having trouble with the newly replaced battery on my rooted Xperia Z1 (with android 5.1.1).
2 months ago i replaced the battery because the old one overheated. The new battery has been fine untill a few days ago when it told me all day that it had 50% left. I found that weird so I didn't charge it to let it run out of battery so I could charge it to 100% and recalibrate it.
After the phone suddenly blacked out the battery wouldn't charge any more, so I took it out and messured it's voltage to be around 2.5. So I jumpstarted the battery back to 3.5 V and was able to make it charge again. Even though the battery functions like "normal", it still says 50% all the time with few exceptions which does look to be the correct battery level. The power management app disappears from settings whenever the battery shows 50% and reappears when it shows the correct level.
The battery indicator shows the correct percentage when charging, but not otherwise.
My theory is that there is something wrong with the software regarding the battery management and that it let the battery use too much of it's voltage. I've seen people with similar problems (50% battery indicator and disappearing power management), but the only solution there was to replace the battery. It doesn't seem that likely because of the software being buggy and the battery is only 2 months old.
Here's some screenshots of the weird behavior:
imgur.com/SXSMdzi

(Couldn't include image because I am a new user)
As I were writing this, it began discharging while hooked up to a charger. Seems to be a bit unstable.
Would appreciate all and any help
Hello!
I also got similar issues. I've read and try anything to find what happened with my Z1.
First, in my experience, some says (on internet) it's Android problem called Sudden Battery Drain Syndrome. I've tried apps like repair battery etc. and calibrator to fix it. Still the same the battery drain badly.
Second, so I am continuing my investigation on internet. I read from xperia care etc and I found that android Lolipop (5.1.1) terribly sucks for Xperia Z1. Many Z1 users confirmed this. Not just the battery problem, there are bugs also, like touchscreen, screen flickering etc.
Third, after knowing this and read like 2 hours to find the solution, I found in this forum that it's better to downgrading the android version back to KitKat or JellyBean. So I installed JellyBean firmware. Just now finished. I hope it'll be good again. I'll inform you.
NB: Factory reset also won't work
Hello, nice to get some response on this thread.

I tried battery repairs, calibrators and so on. Did not do anything for me. After reading up on Sudden Battery Drain Syndrome, I'm inclined to say that it doesn't seem all that similar to my problem.

That is interesting to know. I have experienced alot of those problems. I was thinking about upgrading to a custom unofficial Android 7 for xperia z1, hearing this might be the thing that makes me do it. It's always such a hassle to download apps and set up from a new install, so I've put it off for a while.
Some days after starting this thread, I ordered a new battery. The old one started to do the same thing. Seemed like I could jumpstart it again, but I don't see the point in doing that every other day.
The new battery has been working great for almost 3 weeks now. I still have the Lolipop problems you mentioned, but the phone works as it is supposed to. It acts up from time to time, but I suspect that being because I use Greenify and CPU tuner to make the battery last longer. I might be upgrading to Android 7 and if that fails, I might downgrade.
I'm hoping I was unlucky with the last battery because it lasted so short and that the problem was only related to the battery. I will post updates here if the new battery also suffers.
