Xperia Z5c battery life diminished since 6.0.1 update

Have noticed a massive lost of battery life since doing the latest update. Use to get easily a day out of the phone, possibly close to 2 days. Now struggling to get to the end of the working day, with minimal use. ?

Here's my solution until it gets fixes by Sony. Revoke charge optimization, switch off STAMINA and set WiFi to scan of if charging. I'm not using my phone a lot and with these settings I'm back at a good level of 2 days+
Would like to hear if it works also for you.

A small change that saves battery.

Disable screen enable function with two touches

The screen of the Z5 is very sensitive, so who uses in the pocket of the pants, or even in handbags, the cell phone activates the screen, consuming a lot of battery.

I liked this function, but without it it improved the autonomy a little.

@XcrossfireX turn off location services for the Telstra app and do something about facebook and messenger. Facebook is evil. Use a browser to access facebook.

Let me know if you have problems. I have the Telstra handset using the Optus network.
