Other build fixed this problem..?

.580 works well
[Xperia Z2 General] gerarKIA:
As far as I know there isn't a fix yet, this is a bug by google.

It isn't always there, I was switching on and off the mobile data, then one day I forgot and left it on and it hasn't drained the battery yet.

You could try an app to switch off data when on wifi, and then switch it on when no wifi is active.
[Xperia Z2 General] alinghi100:
This is a ridicolous bug...how can this firmware contain a bug like this? :/
[Xperia Z2 General] gerarKIA:
Non lo so, but it's a bug that affects all devices, not only sony's

It's a Google issue, they didn't patch it correctly. Nexus line will get the bug fix in their September security update, we should receive it shortly after.

After upgrade 5.1.1 and downgrade 4.4.4 many time, Sadly to say that 5.1.1 use much more battery than 4.4.4 :( Maybe [MENTION=599722]niaboc79[/MENTION] will mod the rom, and fix this for us. Waiting....
[Xperia Z2 General] Rajeev:
I am using it for my personal use. U need root and deodexed rom.

Facing "device overheating camera needs to shut down" problem.. Happened today while i was taking some shots in superior mode..[emoji21] [emoji20]

Anyone else?

Solutions please
[Xperia Z2 General] Rajeev:
Its happening in D6503 German version too
[Xperia Z2 General] EthanDev:
Yea..read that..any solutions? Did u face it?
[Xperia Z2 General] Rajeev:
Yea i also facing it. Don't know solution yet.. Sometimes its irritating..

It's happening to every digital camera, nothing new here. It's overheating just like any other device.
[Xperia Z2 General] tOrNadO™:
I'm on Indian FTF pre rooted, no such problems.. I took like 50 to 60 shots just yesterday and i never got any warnings or FC's..
[Xperia Z2 General] EthanDev:
I have moved from Samsung to Sony.. Never faced such issues on any phone..
[Xperia Z2 General] doministry:
Well, me either actually.

Besides continuous 4k video recording, but that happens to dedicated cameras too.
[Xperia Z2 General] EthanDev:
4k i agree.. But its happening while taking photos.. And that too on superior auto..
[Xperia Z2 General] doministry:
Well never happened on mine.

Do you take like 200 shots in a row?
[Xperia Z2 General] EthanDev:
No man.. Thats a lot[emoji23]

I took 4-5 photos on my roof of flowers

Used Camera 360 1st..then switched to stock camera.. Noticed that the device was hot after using 360... And suddenly the warning appeared...
[Xperia Z2 General] Rajeev:
I don't have any force closes. Just warning. But we can disable that warning.. :D
[Xperia Z2 General] doministry:
Well I use only stock. It may be Camera 360 problem too.
[Xperia Z2 General] EthanDev:
Hmm.. But it popped another day too..while using stock only
[Xperia Z2 General] slatt01:
I have to agree with all comments re power consumption. Rom 546 does make my z2 last about half as long as previously did.

I just had the camera heat warning this morning as well. Took some pictures of my garden around 10am when it wasn't even that hot out, after about 5 minutes taking pictures (manual mode, auto mode, and background defocus) I got the warning message. Using 546 USA Unbranded

[Xperia Z2 General] EthanDev:
Whats the latest firmware for D6502? I am on .546

I face the heating issue when i take photos outside.. Expected good support from Sony after moving from Samsung..[emoji20] [emoji21] [emoji17]

All is good except this annoying issue of camera..
[Xperia Z2 General] Rajeev:
Latest is 546. Some regions got 570 or 580 but its just a small update..
[Xperia Z2 General] EthanDev:
Thanks bro..
[Xperia Z2 General] doministry:
The new FW is really good so far.

The battery life seems on par with the previous FW.

The screen + data seems taking a little bit more juice, but sometimes I

have an impression it lasts actually bit longer.

Today I hit 48hrs on one charge plus 30% left with 3hrs35mins screen on time.

So far so good.

It seems there is a bug in Music - when I'm offline and I want to change the Album artwork

and I download it from the device, after selecting SAVE the idiot starts the downloading process (from the Gracenote..)

However, once I connect to the net, it all goes as it should.

Hmm :eyes:

Going back to 5.0.2 .... too battery drain for me.
[Xperia Z2 General] dex87xda:
Going back to 4.4.2 :)
[Xperia Z2 General] Monipeev:
In fact one of the things that make me stay of previous version is exactly the battery. 4.4.2 is the version in which regularly achieve up to 8 hours screen. From there, always been around and 5 - 5.30 hours.

But definitely the endurance of my battery is necessary and is in the first place.

stock camera...
[Xperia Z2 General] sandulea:
I'm really disappointed with 5.1.1. As with 5.0.2, it initially feels like it'll last as long as 4.4.4, but by the second day after charging, and all following days, it drains about 10% per day just in standby, and in battery history cell standby always fights its way to the top of the battery drainer list. This happens no matter the network, 2g, 3g or 4g.

This and the dialer usablility compared to kitkat are the only problems as far as I'm concerned, and that's actually the reason why I'm disappointed. I like everything else: the design, the lockscreen, the notifications on the lockscreen, the quick settings and notifications now that there are xposed modules to make them properly useful, the camera which improves sharpness overall and contrast in shadowed areas and the slightly increased performance and fluidity of the apps and interface, to name a few.

I would have lived happily with the dialer, but the battery feels at times to drain twice as fast and sometimes slower than on kitkat, and I hate that uncertainty over how long it'll last me, especially when I'm out and about for days at a time. The fact that cell standby is always at the top of the list is also strange, because baseband updates should have improved signal and battery drain, not worsen it. I also live and roam around the same area, so there are no changes in signal over my kitkat days.

I'm going back to 4.4.4 for now. Given the update history for the original Z, I have high hopes that we will see Marshmallow some time from now on our devices. I'm pinning my hopes for a better battery life on that one until then.
[Xperia Z2 General] Franco203:
[MENTION=3505109]sandulea[/MENTION]

Same here mate, I've downgraded my Z2 to 4.4.4 for the exact same reasons, and I will stick with it until Google solves the battery drain issue that made Lollipop eat every phone's battery in a matter of few hours. I've had similar issues with other phones I had on lollipop (LG G3, G Pro 2) before the Z2. Sony did a good job with the updates, and it's not their fault if they have to deal with a bugged software from Google. I actually love the performance of the Z2 now that I'm back on 4.4.4

I hope we will see 6.0 Marshmallow very soon too, and that it brings the best of kitkat (battery life and stability) and lollipop (new graphics and more reactivity) together.
[Xperia Z2 General] adamgraver:
Everyone is complaining about battery life.. For me when I first updated to 5.1 it was terrible, but now I'm getting 8 hours of screen on time with Stamina Mode off and screen brightness set to halfway!
[Xperia Z2 General] antkalaitzakis96:
The battery problem of 5.1 isn't about SoT but with the standby time. It keeps draining even if you don't use it.
[Xperia Z2 General] doministry:
Cannot confirm this at all.

It bahaves almost identically to 5.0.1.

Almost no drain, like 1% max 2% through the 7 - 8 hrs night.
[Xperia Z2 General] Farooq95:
Which rom,region?
[Xperia Z2 General] derjaeger:
Me too drain at night is really little

[Xperia Z2 General] doministry:
Yes I did! But it doesn't matter, I just show what consumes the battery life.
[Xperia Z2 General] berkeaydin:
My Z2 also wastes about 10% overnight. Which was not happening on 5.0.1

Using my own region's stock rom or somewhere else's does not change anything

I wonder if we can extract the modem firmware from 5.0.0 and use it on 5.1.1
[Xperia Z2 General] sandulea:
And I forgot to mention, the minimum brightness, both manual and auto, seems to be higher than before. I may have seen it during the day, but at night, when sorting through the day's photos, is when I really noticed it. I'll be waiting for an xposed module, AndroPlusMod, which has an option to lower the minimum brightness, to be updated for 5.1.1, because it doesn't seem to work on this version.

I'm tempted to have a go at it again, maybe for a bit longer this time. I'll be leaving on a trip next week in poor signal areas, where I'll keep it mostly in airplane mode, so that'll give me a chance to see if it fares better when taking cell reception out of the equation. Also, the camera will be really important, so I might as well use the version that I think makes the best of what's available.
[Xperia Z2 General] knoxploration:
I've been having several problems on the latest firmware: My phone's sound stops working and requires a reboot, the user interface becomes unresponsive so I can't switch apps or get to the homescreen unless I reboot, and bluetooth audio connectivity stops working until I tell the phone to reboot, then audio comes back right before it powers off to reboot. Anybody else seen these?

---------- Post added at 02:19 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:15 AM ----------

If your camera button didn't work, most likely you have an intermittent hardware problem. As I said, it has worked perfectly for me on every single release to date. The chances of a bug like that having gone unnoticed by everybody except you are zero.

Flashed the Customized DE yesterday and did a factory reset. Performance improvement, phone looks more faster and RAM management looks better (killing less background running apps). Didn't check battery performance yet, but by now looks worse than 5.0.2. BTW, this battery graphic is so wrong, in the 5.0.2 was quite accurate.

Great performance, perfect battery life, 7 hours SoT min.
[Xperia Z2 General] sandulea:
Did anyone use the Android's Battery Saver mode in addition to Sony's stamina modes? I haven't noticed it before, it's in Battery Usage, in the overflow menu. With it on, it appears to climb up to 2.3GHz less frequently than it does just with Stamina mode on, according to System Monitor lite.

This bug does NOT keep the mobile active, it simply forgets to tell the battery stats that the mobile has already been deactivated.

Battery life will not change.

You're not the first person to say that, so I don't know if you and others were looking in the right area. At that time I was refreshing ptcrb on a daily basis. It was certified before release. I even phoned Sony asking them how long of a wait between certification and release because it was certified weeks before the rollout actually happened. No games just facts.

I don't what you're trying to proof but it's very clearly shown it was certified after Sony's rollout

Date of certification - March 17th

Rollout began with Baltic and Nordic regions yes. But it was still certified beforehand. I don't even care, I remember pointing this out at the time because someone else said the same thing as you. Meanwhile I saw the certification on PTCRB the whole time. Many people on here were complaining about it because it was certified weeks before the rollout. I was one of them.
