Xperia z5 32.2.a.0.224 6.0.1 battery graph question

Clicking on the battery graph no longer shows your signal strength and awake and WiFi and GPS. Is this a bug? And also the built in battery saver has just been renamed to stamina mode. Does exactly the same job. Stamina mode used to turn data off when the screen was off! And still the same ugly battery icon from kitkat!!!!

After the upgrade I charged my phone to 100% after unplugging it went straight to 94% and now a few more times after charging to 100% and as soon as unplugging it's dropping to 97%. I've done a software repair and still the Same. Never happened prior to the update,

At this point there is no information on battery use. Until I start using my device for 10min or so then screen appears at the top of the list

first I'd like to know if this update has been received by OTA ?

or it is a beta ?!

how you install it ?

it sound likes a big BUG, because it is the first thing that the quality depertment should check!!!

Use that website to check if an update is available for your phone model and region.

It's not beta it's the official 6.0.1 for Z5

About the battery level dropping instantly from 100 to 94.. This bug has been present in the last .185 release. The battery level gauge i reported previously is apparently still present in the current . 224 release... Sometimes the phone charges to full and stops but the android battery level only reports 87%.. Still no response from sony on this bug after so many reports from users

i dont think many people realise that when you charge the phone, even when it says 100% full its not actually fully charged/full unless you check the About / Status page and see what the charging status in there is.

I always wait till it says Full in that part of the phone. At the moment i'm very suprised at the battery life of my z5 compact with 6.0.1.

Im getting around 5 days (with about 3-4 hours screen time)

but as mentioned, i would like the battery graph to be normal android one.

The problem is actually not with the battery life.. It's actually with the battery gauge in android. Sometimes when charging from 30% to full overnight, the battery level will be stuck at say, 87% even when actual hardware wise, the battery has finished charging to 100% and stopped. Thus when using the phone, the battery level will stay at 87% for a very long time until the actual battery level matches up with the software level and begin dropping.

I have Z5 compact.

High System Android usage IMHO usualy means that something keeps phone awake. Unfortunately with this new update you can't see the graph of some parameters (awake, gps, mobile signal,...) - sony please bring this graph back.

I had this bug in the previous version and I hoped that it will be fixed with this update. Well it is NOT.

If I restart the phone it helps and it is possible that this "awake bug" will stay away for days, but sumetimes it occours after just a few hours. I read somewhere that this was related with bluetooth - for test I stopped useing bluetooth all together and it wasn't much better. Anyway this bug keeps phone awake even in airplane mode during the night when noone touches the phone.

I suspect (but I have no real clue) that the problem is in : com.sonyericsson.android.wakeup and com.fingerprints.serviceext (I am not useing fingerprints senzor at all, but this process shows high battery usage)
