battery problems lollipop.

Mrcrown — Tue, 28 Apr 2015 05:20:43 GMT

Lollipop made my Xperia z3 compact worse. When my Phone is fully charged the battery is dead after 8 10 hours. Even with the stamina mode on at 100%. Charging the battery takes 3 hours. With kitkat it was less than an hour. And my Phone whas on for at least 2 days. Now i have to recharge 2 times a Day. I made a factory reset, install lollipop again with bridge.
Kitkat is so much better. Thank you Android for my Phone, Thank you Sony for giving us an update that decrease the Phone en not Letting me downgrade to kitkat. When i search on the internet for this problem, i see im not the only one.

The battery on the z3 and z3 compact from 0 to 100 takes almost 3 hours even on kitkat.

Reinstall lollipop it will smooth things out. And do mind the language

I'm sorry to hear that.

It sounds like you have something using alot of battery installed. It may perhaps be an app that's not fully compatible with Lollipop.

Have you checked Settings -> Power management -> Battery usage to see what's using the battery? It's best to check this menu when battery level starts to get low to get good statistics.

But it's not possible to charge the battery from 0 to 100% in 1h. As uliwooly says, it takes longer (2.4h if you don't have anything using power while charging)

Stamina will not enable itself when you have a charger connected so Stamina will not have any effect on charging.

Sorry for the language, but it is frustrating that everything workshop fine and after the update not anymore. Sometimes the powermanagement says that the most battery usage is in stand by mode. And the apps i have closed are still making mobile radio connection what drains the battery. now i have always stamina mode on and the battery saving option.

Cell standby is battery used for communicating with the mobile network. When you're not using the phone, it's normal for this to be one of the apps using most battery. But make sure to check the battery usage menu when battery level starts to get low. It's shows usage since the last charge, not current usage.

But if you can't see apps causing it, try holding the yellow button next to the SIM-cards for a few seconds and then let it charge the battery full and see if that helps.

Does it matter if my on screen battery indicator shows 48% charge, and when I hit the button next to the sim card and connected my charger, it read 73% charge?

Uliwooly, it seems like that it fixed the problem. Battery life looks like much better now l, even with stamina mode off. What is the different between the yellow button and the factory restore option in the configuration menu?

Re: battery problems lollipop.

Mrcrown — Sat, 02 May 2015 10:03:39 GMT

@ goateye
Where you can put your simcard is a tiny yellow little button

Re: battery problems lollipop.

Uliwooly — Tue, 05 May 2015 00:04:00 GMT

@Goateye like @Mrcrownsaid under the SIM card cover/flap

Since I installed Lollipop, if I try to charge using micro-USB cable connected to a PC, it takes 6-7 hours !

Very disappointing charge times.

@Jono_z3c

That's normal, you have to check the voltage output on the USB port. also it will always take a LOT longer to charge a phone through a computer. again, that's normal

Hi guys,

do U have some idea about battery calculation method in Lollipop? Is slightly different from kitkat, or something is with my phone. The Android Operating system and Messenger is the biggest consumer under lollipop, thus these were some % before. Currently Screen is 8% (40 minutes on), AOS is 13% Messenger is 26%. I'm running on .726 via OTA (before I've updated via PCC for .690 and done factory reset after..) Any idea? Thanks

I still think that the battery is decreased by lollipop.
Butt there are some things what you could try like i did.
1# the yellow little button like uliwooly said.
2# go to your wifi settings, advanced options and turn off scanning always available.
3# go to your active
apps and look wich apps are on, the one you dont use disable it.
