Has this sorted the Stamina mode bug? My battery is lasting ok too, but Stamina mode is still not sorted. To be honest, I'm going to try without it on now, as the battery has got a lot better.

Also did you lose your App data doing the repair?

Thanks
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AntonyStark:
I backed up App Data to SD Card, but I think Google Play messed up a couple of the back ups as it started to Download a couple apps before the back up had added them, but I did it again. Battery is still to normalise but right now Stamina Mode looks like its working. I've let it do its media stuff all day without bothering it so once it's fully charged im gonna unplug and test it.

[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] schaggo:
Brightness low, middle or full makes a HUGE difference. Always include this information. As well as any other power consumption related information if you want any usable feedback.

Are you sure it's only POP3? Not even IMAP? It's standard for mail servers to at least provide IMAP since years, or it should be standard. IMAP can work as a quasi-push protocoll, miles better than POP3.

If you stay on POP3, your device will wake up 4 times per hour and stay awake for as long as it takes to open a connection to your server, poll the mail, download new mail, close the connection and go back to idle. POP is always pull, POP does not support any push functionality. Consider lowering the frequency to 1h instead of 15min, do you REALLY need to know about your email every 15 minutes? Say yes, sacrifice the battery. Say no, and maybe not lose anything at all.

So no, given theres no other energy whore on your system, you can hardly improve the situation. I recommend to install Better Battery Stats (theres a free version in the xda forums) and let it run along for a couple days to collect some data which helps in finding out what is draining your battery.

left my phone overnight for 8 hours aeroplane mode on, drained no battery yay.

then i turn off aeroplane mode and mobile data was enabled, in 15 minutes, 5 percent was drained....

then i listened to 10 minutes of music and it went down to 91 percent.....

thats pretty quick draining.....it has never drained this quick before.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] schaggo:
This is kind of expected. Let me explain a little how this works:

The remaining battery capacity is calculated and displayed based on battery voltage readouts. There are fluctuations in the voltage readout depending on the current use of the device. If you do something which puts a lot of load on the battery for only a short amount of time, the voltage drops severely but recovers afterwards.

Hopefully plain English example: at the start of the following scenario the voltage of your battery equals 90%. You stress your system for say 1 minute. The actual battery state will be 89% after this, but the current readout suggest otherwise, let's say 80%. Over the course of a couple minutes, the voltage will recover to the actual state of the battery, the 89%. This is physics, no way around it.

Now, to not make your meter jump up and down like crazy every time you put some load on your system, the percentage is calculated from averages over a certain amount of time.

What happened to you is this: at the beginning of the night the battery reported a certain voltage, over the course of the night the voltage was lowered only very slightly, this slight change was not reflected in the reported percentage stayed at 100% although very little energy was of course consumed. After you started to use the device, the relative drop of voltage was high, thus a "drop" of 5% was reported, which was probably calculated slightly too high but on average makes sense. You now actively used the device, starting to continuously suck energy, the relative drop compared to before became even bigger, but easier to calculate, as the differences in voltage can now be much better measured as it's a distinct difference and not only a very very slight difference, which could come from god knows what.

This makes total sense if you think about it: a device in flightmode standby consumes no energy at all? Guess not. A device in flightmode standby uses some but only very little energy and just enough to make the system smooth out the reading and thus report a slightly off value? Seems much more logical.

So it didn't drain much more in a short amount of time. The reporting was simply off a little. And yes, 5% respectively 8% really only is a little compared to a scale of 100 ;) even though your brain tells you it's a lot...

Been reading the Nexus 4 Forums as one of the Kernel wakelocks is the same as the one keeping the phone out of Deep sleep the most, and it was only partially fixed when they got 4.2.2. Hopefully Sony are working on this and if that 4.2.2 leak picture is to believed hopefully it is fixed in the 3.6 kernel build anyway.

[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AntonyStark:
On the Sony Mobile forums, there is a work around for the Stamina Mode incorrect times, when it stops working you have to go to the Eco Mode Controller and force closeout and clear data. Hence why it works when you reset the phone and then stops working again.

There is either one of these two, in settings/app/"All" tab. Differs following country/model probably

EcoMode Controller

Extended Standby Mode mine is asia c6603, and found this one

If listed one of them, click the app to "Force Stop" first, then "Clear Cache".then immediately, press Vol+ and power buttons together until the phone shutdown and reboot. U can recheck stamina mode calculate properly after that, u shd see changes from 2days++ to 4days++ if 100% charged and toggled stamina mode. Hope helps. Goodluck and cheers :)

Its not quite that easy im afraid.

there is a thread in development about geting ubuntu running on the prime. Other distros are possible but require some extra work. You need to you a custom patched kernel and special drivers and firmware files to get it working on the prime.

Any suggestions on things maybe I could try. I dont use a big assortment of apps.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scream4cheese:
Try a custom kernel. There are a lot of great ones here. Don't ask which one is the best for battery life or performance because everyone will give you a subjective answer or bash at you. (Just kidding) Try them one at a time for a day or two and make your choice.

A great application I recommend would be "Greenify". You need root for the app. Check it out.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chrisrozon:
Turn off auto brightness and manually dim your screen as far as you can. Turn off things you're not using (Wifi, gps, bluetooth) until you need them. Don't let apps auto sync unless you really need real time updates from them.

Rasbean + Trinity

Battery life combination is to root -> install rasbean jelly by rascarlo, the install morfic's trinity kernel -> keep brightness always at 50% or less, and battery life will e around 15 hours that with 4 hour actual usage... But ofcourse as time progresses and you install thousands of apps that require your internet and push notification they will eat battery, for those apps life facebook and nonesense use greenify the app it trully helps

[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] rh09:
I just bought a used DINC2 with the intentions of using it on Page Plus. I've factory reset the phone and it's running stock Gingerbread 2.3.4. I've noticed that the phone is always showing the roaming indicator. (I currently use an LG VX5500 flip phone on Verizon and it is never in roaming.) So, I've tried dialing *228, option 2 to update the PRL as I've seen mentioned but it's always unsuccessful (it dials but then comes back with a message that it was unsuccessful - probably because the phone isn't currently activated). I'm afraid to activate service on the phone if it has a problem and I can't call Verizon support to help because it's not activated with Verizon. Will activating the phone likely fix the problem? Any suggestions?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] FordNate:
So the phone isn't activated but you see the roaming symbol because possibly it's trying to find an active Vetizon signal. Once activated n it knows the signal I'm 94.6% sure it won't be roaming anymore.

[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] rh09:
I went ahead and activated the phone with Page Plus and roaming is gone now. The phone must have lost it's programming because when I activated it, there was a list of things that got programmed (including the PRL). I activated another phone and it didn't do any of that on activation. Anyway, long story short, activated the phone and roaming is gone!

You can save it as a bitmap of jpeg file which can be read by the image viewer if you transfer it using the activesync. These are resized to the screen size, so if you want to view it full size or as a different file type you will need to get a some imaging software.

And I'm working on new themes already...;)

The themes are not yet released for Jelly Bean, but I hope to update it soon :)

Here are two screens, what the first theme (View attachment 1794092) looks like:

View attachment 1779631

View attachment 1779634

2.: (View attachment 1794279)

View attachment 1794280

Now it's getting serious:

I don't take any responsibility for loss of data or for bricking ur phone! So before installing, make a backup of the system.

Installation:

1. Backup the old 'MusicWidget.apk' located in /system/app/ into a safe folder. (Just in case, u wouldn't like the theme, so u can put the old apk back...)

2. Download the new MusicWidgetv0.0.0.apk (attached) and name it only: 'MusicWidget.apk'!!

3. Place the downloaded apk in /system/app/ from where u took the old apk and replace the old apk.

4. Reboot.

5. Add the music widget to ur homescreen. (If u had a music widget there before installing, it will be gone after the reboot...)

6. Enjoy!

7. Hit thanks.

You may upload these themes to other websites, but u HAVE TO put ME into the credits!!! Thanx 4 understanding... :)
