So I use WiFi for about 95% of the day, and it appears the verizon models suffer from cell standby... I have smart network switch turned off as well. My screen on time at the moment of this picture was 1.5 hrs. Here's a picture
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] joshrbux:
Not sure it's an issue

Cell standby is also the main cause of battery drain in mine, but I'm not actually sure this is an issue. Something has to have the highest impact on battery and it makes sense that it's cell standby because that's the only thing that's on constantly (unless airplane mode is on). The actual battery performance seems to be as advertised, so I'm not complaining.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] magneticzero:
It makes sense... 2 radios drain the battery faster than 1. WiFi is only to save on your tiered data plans imo.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] xcsdm:
I believe I saw that if you disable VoLTE or Enhanced 4G that this symptom goes away.

I was reading through the AT&T S6 Edge forum. I'd post a link, but I wasn't able to locate it again.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] Syflox:
Isn't VoLTE disabled by default on Verizon phones under the alias of advanced calling? I haven't seen a menu for enhanced 4G either...

End of the day stats are hovering at around 3 hours and 20 minutes screen on time with 12% remaining, auto brightness with cell standby at a whopping 54% while my screen is at 8%. The hell?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] johnnynapalm:
VoLTE has nothing to do with it, tested 3 days of VoLTE on, and 2 days off. No difference, and my Cell Standby usage is up in the 40% at the end of every day.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] juancaperez2000:
I noticed that as soon I conenect to wifi stand by start to raise, disconect and stop, is kind of weird
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] listentochris:
problem fixed!

The fix was this:

1) turn off phone

2) hold volume up, home button, power button until it boots into recovery

3) wipe cache partition

4) reboot

5) turn ON advanced calling

I was able fix my battery drain problem. Most forums will tell you to disable hd calling but on the verizon model it is off by default. Turning it on and clearing your cache fixes the cell standby issue. When you turn it on it will ask you to activate. Don't worry, its free. My battery life went from 6 to 14 hours with heavy use. Thanks to the original poster sonoflopez in the reddit forums.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] humblesheep:
how the heck do you have that many hours left? mine can't get past 10 hours showing right after I take it off full charge? Is my phone defective?

This doesn't wipe the phone or make you redo anything does it
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] listentochris:
No it does not affect internal memory (pics, music, etc.) or apps. @ humblesheep I was pretty amazed by how much of a difference it made. There are a couple of other things you can do as well such as disabling location services and bloatware apps that can increase battery life.

You're awesome

I just wanted to say thank you. I have been trying to figure this out for days. Can't wait to have a good battery life!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] ztahoez:
Fix for cell standby bug is to go to Settings > Wi-Fi > more > advanced then make it look like this.

This is for the people that are having issues with the battery draining while on wifi only.

Setup like image below and it should fix your issues.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] chrdavis:
worked for me, I think

I did this an dumped a couple apps that I had downloaded. But I think this is what finally did it. Standby was at 50% most of the time and I couldn't keep the phone charged, and charging took forever. The standby has been at 1% all day. I didn't do the advanced calling part. I couldn't figure out where that was, but it still worked.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] falcon589:
I've tried this several times but it doesn't seem to help. Could it be because I'm rooted? Cell standby is completely murdering my battery. Today it used 41% of my battery. Any other suggestions?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] swimming3:
i did this and my cell standby got worse but a lot (went from 5% to 20% after that process) any suggestions on what happened? i followed all the steps
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] falcon589:
I think I'm in the same boat as you, I'm still looking for a solution. battery is still awful.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] birdman1852:
I had this issue when I first got my phone. The battery was terrible when on wifi at home and great with wifi turned off. Eventually I signed onto wifi while at the office and the issue was gone. Once I figured out my home router was the issue, I created a guest network on my router where devices couldn't talk to each other. After I joined that, battery life was then good at home.

I did a network capture and found that my Plex server was constantly sending out broadcasts, which may have been keeping the phone from sleeping properly.
[Xperia Z1 General] CappyT:
I make this thread in order to help nailing down the problems with Xposed and new stock Sony Lollipop.

As everybody knows, Xposed is out in alpha for LP (5.0.2)

Some testing on Sony based stock roms reported that it will mostly brick your rom, forcing you to clear ART-cache every time you want to boot the phone.

If you won't clear the cache, the phone simply bootloops.

This happens only on SOME situations, on some other works.

Once you bricked the ROM, removing Xposed doesn't seem to help, you will have to wipe clean and reflash everything.

So be careful while testing Xposed.

You can post here your results or suggestions regarding this serious issue.

Any kind of log about the problem is appreciated.

EDIT: POSSIBLE FIX FOUND

** As always... TAKE A BACKUP FIRST! **
[Xperia Z1 General] beniamin24:
It works ONLY if you deodex your rom
[Xperia Z1 General] CappyT:
I heard of problems even if rom is deodexed in the z3 section...

Anyway, since no deodex is already out for Z1, we can't test it.
[Xperia Z1 General] mati865:

C6906 on stock FTF clean flash of 5.0.2.

Xposed worked fine for me, up until I flashed the "5.0.2. Memory Leak Fix" found on the repo in the Xposed app. Boot loop after enabling this and rebooting. Cleared both caches, got all the way until "starting applications" after it counted up the list of installed apps, then froze, and rebooted. Repeated the process forever. Could never get into a stable working environment to disable that hook.

Tried to remove the conf files in data/data/xposed/conf, but no luck.

Had to FTF Flash again, which I'm waiting on booting right now, to see if that fixed it.
[Xperia Z1 General] CappyT:
Same here. Tried in the same manner.

If someone is able to deodex the rom, I can provide the full system dump.
[Xperia Z1 General] nemesisexsp:
Before flashing the xposed framework i advise you guys to make a backup (recovery) of your system. This way if anything bad happen, just restore your system and you're good to go.

I suggest not to install xposed.......I bricked my z1 3 times.......now it's ok without xposed, maybe it's better if we wait for a more stable version for lollipop

Been running Xposed all day with Gravitybox Module & Unicon. Tried lots of modules and rebooted lots of times. No bootloop issue. May I ask, are they using the latest version of Xposed? And how did the install Xposed? These Qs may lead to answers.

I am using the latest version both flashable zip files and apk. And I installed the apk first after first boot and the did a restore using TB then flashed the files on the flashable zip. I don't recommend installing mods before first boot.

I'm on a C6903 and using prerooted HK flashable zip with dual Recovery.

[Xperia Z1 General] iedafarha:
xposed worked find on my phone.

follow this method,

1. flash xposed-arm-20150308.zip via recovery

2. clear cache / ART

3. Reboot system , install XposedInstaller_3.0-alpha2.apk and soft reboot.

4. install xposed module and enable module.

5. go to framework menu and soft reboot

*** If your phone get bootloop , no need to flash whole firmware. just force shutdown your phone, ( hold Power button + vol up 5sec) , go to Teamwin recovery ( power on phone + vol up) , mount system - advanced - file manager, go to /system/ framework folder and delete XposedBridge.jar .
[Xperia Z1 General] CappyT:
Note that some modules work, out of the box.

Try installing Intelli3g for example... if someone is able to do it and actually reach it without wiping cache, I will pay him a beer!

Well, gravitybox is known to be working....

[Xperia Z1 General] Aaron_035:
Do share how you got it working :)
[Xperia Z1 General] Snaqejack:
Installed the apk, rebooted and flashed the zip.

I think i might have cleared the ART aswell.
[Xperia Z1 General] Aaron_035:
Hm... How did you clear ART, which apk did you install and which zip did you flash?
[Xperia Z1 General] gioiellino:
i have installed apk and flashed zip.

Xposed now is working. Gravity box is working.

and all phone funcions are working.

the only problem is when reboot... go to bootloop and i must go to recovery and clear cache and reboot.
[Xperia Z1 General] iiD4x:
i have weird issue .. everytime i try to install GravityBox LP .. it says app not installed ..
[Xperia Z1 General] Fiso:
Here's the file. Also I never cleared any form of cache. Just flash and reboot.
[Xperia Z1 General] 1xinfusion:
The state of things as of now..

From what I'm seeing so far:

If you have problems with bootloop that only cache clearing fixes:

xposed problem that rovo89 is trying to fix. Current workaround is use a deodexed rom or debloated rom. See github issue link here, xda discussion link here

If you have problems with force closures and play store issues after flashing deodexed rom (no xposed modules enabled / installed):

deodexed rom is incompatible with certain apps? (Seems like some force closures happen after play services updates itself?)

Either way, this is a problem with deodex and the stock rom. Correct me if I'm wrong on this.

If you have xposed working, and some modules dont work:

they are either incompatible with lollipop or selinux needs to be set in permissive mode. (I've noticed as most working builds require you to set SELinux to permissive, I'm aware while thats a requirement for dualrecovery, certain modules have been mentioned to fail without selinux set to permissive)

Other things I've noticed but feel like not to really matter in this problem are, 23.1.A.0.726 roms have "working" xposed builds while the 23.1.A.0.690 ones don't. This could be attributed to the differences in each person's debloating / deodexing routine. Correct me if I'm wrong.

Thats all I know of at the moment. I feel like at this moment, if you have a working build and have working reboots, post your configuration (if different from whats written above). In order to check for working builds, install a simple testable xposed module (20mp superior auto works) instead of your favourite modules and update all play store apps, then try rebooting. It complicates things when you have too many things installed.

EDIT: I'd like to add that having a locked vs unlocked bootloader doesn't seem to change the results, tested through unlocking the device and locking the device on "working" and non working builds.

4. reboot to system and install xposed apk then soft reboot.

5. install modules and soft reboot.

[Xperia Z1 General] iiD4x:
i rebooted twice after installing .. told ya, no bootloop here !
[Xperia Z1 General] Mobfigurz:
The difference may just be whether or not it was a dirty or clean upgrade from KK to LP.

I for one did a dirty upgrade and have been unable to stop the bootloops once Xposed is installed. I have a locked boot loader.

If someone has the time and has a backup, who performed a dirty upgrade and cannot get Xposed to work can perform a clean upgrade and see if Xposed then stops looping, it would be useful.
