stamina mode?

Hi, i got the xperia z recently. Have noticed that at times the stamina mode doesnt work properly. When you toggle between it the battery life doesnt change. I then have to reset the phone post which it works fine. This has happened 3 times in the last 5 days.Does anyone know how to fix?

repair it with SUS, that's the first thing I did when I got my phone

Update Service (SUS)

I've noticed one issue, I don't use stamina as I like to keep my data/wifi on but when I check the phone in the morning stamina was on, it seems that after few hours on idle the phone enable stamina, its a good thing for users who like to save battery, but it is bad news for users like me who want to keep their data on (sync on)

Well my stamina mode doesn't turn on automatically, though it gives me message suggesting me to turn on my stamina mode every morning. Here what I don't understand is, everyone is facing same problems but in different way. Lol. Dizzy_Face

I think it takes a while for your phone to work it out?

At first I didnt notice much changes between the estimated but now if I toggle between the options I see the changes.

I can run my phone up to 2 days with wifi/mobile network on 24/7. I'm a heavy user of social networking, texting, emails also calls now and again.

Battery is brilliant

STAMINA mode will constantly re-evaluate your usage and update the expected standby time accordingly.

This standby time will completely vary depending on your own personal usage. You may see that when you first start using your handset, the Standby time will be higher than what is expected after you have used the handset for a few days. This is due to STAMINA mode having no previous usage history to estimate from.

If you have a very high usage level, you may only see a slight improvement between having STAMINA enabled and disabled. STAMINA mode is more effective the more often the display is turned off as this is when the power saving features kick in. If the display is rarely turned off, you may not see much improvement in the battery performance.
