stamina mode led fix

Hi i just found a fix for the led not working in stamina mode

go to this link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2240888

it works like a charm

And i think if a dev on xda can do it even sony would be able to fix it

Actually I don't think it's a bug, if you guys see the LED carefully, you should find that it's not a LED but a OLED just like a small display. Maybe it needs more power than we expect so Sony turn it off when STAMINA online. But I'm not totally sure, we need a official confirm.

even if it is an oled it wont draw a lot of power from the battery

i think its a basic 101 feature that every phone should have and the led should work always with or without stamina mode

It wouldn't be real smart to find a work around to make the LED or OLED work by yourself....just sounds like trouble really. In a conversation i've had with a sony rep they said they're well aware of the issue and a fix will be released within a future update...it's just a waiting game =/

Yeah true it may be trouble

But when i pay over 600 euro for a phone i expect it to work perfectly

Sony should have though about this and fixed this bug before releasing the phone

But now they just want us to wait without any news about when would it be fixed

Re: stamina mode led fix

I agree wholeheartily - lost important family news due to using Stamina mode with silent the first weekend with ZL ($624 dollars).

Read on Sony developer site they extoll this "accomplishment" yet vibrate is enabled?!?!?! WTF - activate a motor over an LED?

They've taken enough heat so hopefully a real fix is implemented - Wonder if Stamia ROM/OS upgrade or standalone SW push? Warranty keeps me from Flashing phone for a while so reliant on Sony to "fix" stuff which is so painful!

XDA also have a mod to increase intensity of LED Flash - How amazing would that be! Put that into the phone, fix Stamina and give users something!
