[Sony Xperia XZ2 Compact Real Life Review] faelnor:
Coming from a Z3 compact, I can't help but feel this is a huge step back in terms of battery performance. I am really, really disappointed.

Woke up today at 7:00 with a full charge, watched about 40 minutes of YouTube which took me down to 68%; now it's 3:30 PM, the phone has barely seen any use and the battery is at 52%. On the Z3c when the battery was brand new, with this kind of use I would still be around 80%.

I really don't know what to say :( This is now a one-day-lasting phone like any other.
[Sony Xperia XZ2 Compact Real Life Review] sev8:
That's disappointing. I've got a Z3C that I use very lightly, mostly just 10 minutes of web browsing, 20 mins on WhatsApp and a bit more general screen on time. Maybe 45 to 60 mins total per day. I still get 3 days of battery life from my 3 and a half year old phone.

I'm considering either a XZ2C or Google Pixel (2016), but not really sold on either of them, both for being larger and the battery life being poorer :(
[Sony Xperia XZ2 Compact Real Life Review] FcukBloat:
xz2c upgraded to 5" full hd screen, that's why battery life isn't as good as z3c. you can't have everything unfortunately.

still, I'm very happy with battery life of this phone, i get easily through 2 full days with one charge, and 6 hours sot, average usage.

it depends from your usage pattern of course, btw with same usage i used to get half the battery life with my previous S7.

not to mention size of this phone is perfect for me! very happy

ps. pixel 2016 is bigger than xz2c and battery lasts shorter.. and it is 2 years old phone.. wouldn't suggest it
[Sony Xperia XZ2 Compact Real Life Review] sev8:
Yeah, I know the Pixel is bigger and older, but I'm not too concerned with the performance difference and the both have 4GB of RAM, which is more important for me. also wonder if my light usage could stretch the Pixel out to 2 days too.

For the Z3C, community support for ROMs was OK, but I expect the Pixel will have a larger community and will continue to get updates for a longer time.

I think the sensible thing is for me to stick with the Z3C until it breaks, but we don't always make the sensible choice...
[Sony Xperia XZ2 Compact Real Life Review] Dxue:
light use endurance is pretty good of this phone. if you just bought the phone, don't forget that the battery might need some time to adjust itself. and in my case it needed to drain the battery with some unknown usage after a system update.
[Sony Xperia XZ2 Compact Real Life Review] optimummind:
My light use endurance is great. After 1 & 1/2 days being off the charger & 1 hr of SOT, I still had 70% left. Blows my Unlocked Galaxy S9+ (965U1) away in terms of both standby & in-use battery performance.

To be fair on the GS9+, however, that phone is connected to a Gear S3 Classic 24/7.
[Sony Xperia XZ2 Compact Real Life Review] yas87:
loving it, it's one week of use and i end everyday with battery at 50-60%

i use it for browsing, instant messagging, share and take photoes, waste time on 9gag and various networking configurations.

if you have battery drains check for installed applications. Disable facebook!

Ya... it's a pity that the market apparently wants Full HD also on small screens. To me, dpi>300 doesn't make sense apart from VR (which I never use), but the market wants 430dpi+ apparently. Yes, there is a tiny difference between my Mi5S (428dpi) and my previous Moto G 2014 (294dpi) in terms of sharpnes - but I'd always take the longer battery life instead.
[Sony Xperia XZ2 Compact Real Life Review] lettereacaso:
Hi,

I recently bought this phone and it's awesome but I noticed that when I unplug the phone from the charger, it drains quickly battery even in stand by. Right now it has 18 min SOT and it's 89% (most whatsapp). Not quite like yours. Since I did just 2-3 cycles, do I need to calibrate it? If so, how should I do it exactly?

Thanks a lot!

The msvoicecmd in bepe's rom is only for English user, I prefer to use cyberon voice commander 2.0 for Chinese command support. but the msvoicecmd is prior than cyberon when I press the talk key on the bluetooth headset each time.

Is there a way to remove or disable the msvoicecmd? I mean some registry modify, not modify the rom(it' hard to me), uncheck the "Enabled" option in the msvoice setting no help to call out the cyberon vc.
[Touch Cruise ROM Development] petr.kolar:
remove the msvoicecomand from the windows/startmenu/programs folder and it should work...

I did exactly the same to remove the Voice Speed Dial (rom default) and since then my Voice commander started to work...

Petr
[Touch Cruise ROM Development] Mahmood:
go to \windows\startup\

and delete msvoice cmd from there and restart and the ms voice will not start thats the easiest way
[Touch Cruise ROM Development] windirt:
it is no helpful, after I deleted the msvoicecommand shortcut in the startup folder.

msvoicecmd not popup again when I press the key on bluetooth headset. but the cyberon voicecommander not popup either.

you can't uninstall them but you can disable them from settings i hope?
[Sony Xperia XZ2 Compact Real Life Review] Dxue:
yes you can disable them. but it just doesn't feel right that apps that are easily downloadable from the playstore can't be uninstalled. but I can't remember if that was also like this on the old phones. I immediately rooted my z3c and only had some sony apps left on the device
[Sony Xperia XZ2 Compact Real Life Review] FcukBloat:
thanks! yes sure better to uninstall them but at least if I can disable them I am fine... for now! I too had z3c and also like very debloated sw, so as soon as we will get root (hopefully without loosing drm keys or similar!) I will start preparing my usual debloating script like I did for z3c lol :p:D
[Sony Xperia XZ2 Compact Real Life Review] FcukBloat:
got the phone and disabled many apps i don't use, I'm fine, but one i can't disable and that's pretty frustrating..! swiftkey keyboard.. why the hell i can't disable it? i installed another keyboard and set it up as my default first of course.. :(

but still can't disable swift key so every time I'm typing i see in the navbar the keyboard notification switcher..!

I'm disabling things from app settings.. i could maybe try also with pm disable command from terminal or adb..?

EDIT: fixed! done via adb.. could get rid of swiftkey keyboard and annoying persistent notification in navbar while typing great!!! :victory::laugh::good:

it is faster than a z3 compact, with 405Mb/s from 1000Mb/s with one wall inbetween tested on a fritzbox 5490 with a theoretical 1300mb/s max. (on a pc i get up to 950mb/s)

a little bit further away (about 10 meter and with a floor and a roof inbetween and some metal) i get 191Mb/s. not that bad.

speedtest done with the speedtest.net app and both devices are connected on wifi ac and they are on the same spot when doing the speedtest. (and yes only one at a time and not 2 at the same time, so no interference)

[Sony Xperia XZ2 Compact Real Life Review] Dxue:
compared to the z3compact it can get a lot louder. it sounds more full, like you are listening with your headphones in. tested with a youtube video called: music sound test for high end system hd version. but the bass is lacking (but then again it is a phone)
[Sony Xperia XZ2 Compact Real Life Review] Silver-slim:
The speakers are good but I want to address the headphone socket controversy. I was unhappy about losing the headphone socket but since using it, the dongle hasn't been an issue for me anymore. its tiny and easy to forget its there when listening to music. I get some good bass from both speakerphone and the earbuds and being more of a music listener than a gamer or movie watcher,, sound quality is a big deal for me.

So give this video a listen and tell me what you all think of the sound from both the speakers and using the dongle and earbuds. i'd like to hear everyone's opinion.

https://youtu.be/S3Rd462HcbM
[Sony Xperia XZ2 Compact Real Life Review] vinuneuro:
The speaker quality with music is ok, nothing great. BUT the quality when using speakerphone during a call is horrible. It's like someone turned the bass all the way down and the treble all the way up. Sounds hollow and tinny and crackles. Not sure if it's my particular unit or a software issue. Unfortunately the equalizer in the sound settings only has any effect for music and not for calls.
[General Topics] the cheshire cat:
first off, major props to the xda community, you guys are the best!

now for an interesting problem/project:

It's been a month since I've purchased my Motorola S9 bluetooth headphones http://www.motorola.com/motoinfo/product/details.jsp?globalObjectId=177 and have been amazed by what I can do when combine the S9 with my HTC touch and cyberon's voice dialer which is a voice activation program

I use it to:

listen to stereo music

launch programs

stereo music remote control

speed dial

raise and lower volume

teach iphone users the meaning of envy

just being able to do that with with the a2dp remote and microphone of the s9 makes it feel like it's 2030 where people are wired to computers and technology is transparent and everywhere. The s9 feels like sci fi technology... almost. the s9+htc touch is a great no hassle way of getting the information you want pumped into your ears

so as a tech enthusiast I've asked myself,

why the hell can't my computer do this?? i mean, it's 2008 and I'm still using a keyboard and mouse for everything?

I'm trying to make the S9's work on my mac book pro running windows xp+bootcamp drivers but windows doesn't even support a2dp much less handsfree wireless mic profile

i've an online tutorial by katy hxxp: www.djkaty.com/drupal/vista/bluetootha2dp but installing broadcomm's bluetooth stack gives me an error telling me that there is no bluetooth radio device detected which is total bull as i've been able to send files to my HTC touch via bluetooth. I've also tried installing another bluetooth replacement stack called bluesoleil; with no luck

I've also am about to start trying adding widcomm using this guide (http://www.dev-toast.com/2007/01/05/uncrippling-bluetooth-in-vista-rtm)

but in the guide said a2dp doesn't work with widcomm

anyways how do i make bluetooth a2dp work and my s9's mic to work via bluetooth on pc? is my ultimate question

also, if you could recomend a voice activation program that works as well as cyberon's voice dialer I'm looking for the type of functionality where I can press the voice button issue a command and then good stuff happens I bet lots of other people thought of doing the same thing like this

could you please help?

A step by step guide would be aprechiated
[General Topics] the cheshire cat:
update: I've been able to install widcomm drivers version 5.1 and everything works... except the a2dp UGH! :(
[General Topics] Menneisyys:
BlueSoleil, with some external BT dongles, does support A2DP. It's just that the BT dongle itself must support it in hardware.

That is, shop for an external BT dongle if you do need A2DP.
[General Topics] the cheshire cat:
thanx but i'm trying to get my internal laptop's bluetooth to use it I've heard good reports that i'm just using the wrong version of widcomm drivers.... time to reinstall everything...again

besides who wants to carry around a laptop with a dongle flopping around? i'll try to avoid the dongle solution if i can
[General Topics] szefte:
A2DP and bluetooth stack

Having same issues here. My goal is using BOTH A2dp and Blackberry wireless sync via bluetooth (just a serial port).

I find it impossible as Blackberry will only work with native xp drivers and A2DP is not supported in xp.

Currently i gave up wireless sync and am using A2DP with Bluesoleil, which works fine for me.

Anyone ever tried using A2DP WITHOUT switching to a different bluetooth stack?

[Pixel C Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chekhwastaken:
Hi,

We are developing a Kiosk application using Pixel C as the kiosk device.

To achieve the kiosk mode for application, we first root the device, then use "dpm set-device-owner",

granting the application device owner permission.

Devices operate 24/7.

All of the devices run same Android 7.1.1 version (build number N4F26T) and supposedly same security patch. Supposedly because Android patches won’t apply to rooted devices, because system is unable to verify checksums or something.

After some time (~ 6 months), devices started to behave strange, i.e., not able to receive/send network requests, automatically disconnect from known Wi-Fi access point. Some devices event stuck in boot loop after rebooting the device using the built-in “reboot” command.

We think that this is some kind of hardware issue, because Pixel Cs weren’t supposed to operate this way besides internetz are full of complaints about Pixel C, or a software bug, which with our operation mode (rooted + device owner) has lead to this state.

Did anyone come across to this kind of issue with the tablet?
