[Q] Battery Problem - Sony Xperia L

I was wondering if Xperia L has battery calibration issues like some other Xperias which are solved by restarting to show exact battery left.Out of box, it was charging 100 percent and then i flashed my ftf (Uk which i made myself).After that I calibrated and it was showing till hundred again.Now after updating to 4.2, its again not charging till 100. I know battery calibration will solve the problem but why is it bothering me?
Anyone having this issue ?
On my other devices I didn't need to calibrate at all.
Have I got a defected battery?

I believe this is one of the issues from the 4.2.2 update.
If you want to revert back use FTF via Flashtool
You can also install a custom rom like Xperia Clean 'n' Tweaked

Cheers for the answer but I am noticing this behaviour since day one I bought Xperia L. And I rooted it the next day I bought it with unlocked bootloader. So I couldnot really check it out of box really. I remember I charged it till hundred first time so there wasnot any problem. Now It was on charge for three hours and it still showed 96 and volts were about 4300 which meant it was fully charged (kind of overcharged).
I understand your point about 4.2.2 and going back to another ROM but I am developing a ROM for Xperia L myself.
4.2.2 didnot show me any bugs really and I am quite thinking about using 4.2.2.
Plus I am waiting for device tree for making a ROM from source!
And my question only was, are you experiencing it?

you can't nor should use the tmobile update, it will brick your phone. if you don't have a ATT SIM to get it automatically you will have to do it all manually.
Beware the update break quite a couple things, including the battery life that gets all out of wack. I am still reading to check if it makes sense to update or to stay in a firmware that can be use as a daily driver with a good battery life.

I dont kniow what have you read but I have 2 weeks on 5.0.2 on my D800 and the battery is better, its true that the UI its a little bit in the laggy side but i have a lot of widges. The update its worthy, the things I miss from 4.4 are the wireless storage (accesible from the togle menu) and the album widget, everything else its ok for me
I update my D800 to 5.0.2 and I really love it.

I did the OTA (using AT&T sim) and hard reset a few times through recovery to ensure everything was clean to start with. Most things work great, but battery life has been strange. Last weekend it was around 80% charged and I put it down. Came back a few hours later and it was off because the battery died. This morning I took it off the charger after being on all night (showed 100%). Plugged it into my computer and it then showed 33%.
I also see odd things in the battery control panel showing estimated remaining battery life of 48 hours sometimes. If I were to guess I'd say it's an issue with battery calibration, but who knows. My suggestion is to stick to kitkat for now until a newer version of Lollipop is released for the G2. If you do go with the current OTA version of KK, a hard/factory reset is highly suggested.

You can try instaling (if you have not already done it) a battery calibration app, for me its not a hardware fault but a software one, hope you can resolve it!

Nthing, you can press the "thanks" button too!
Reviving an old thread but even I have the same requirement. I currently use an unlocked AT&T G2 on Lycamobile (Tmobile MVNO) and never get the Lollipop OTA. It always says the current version is already installed.
My question is, if I get an at&t SIM somehow (does it needs to be activated?), will the Lollipop update show up immediately? Are all the initial issues with Lollipop currently resolved? Is it better to stay off the Lollipop version?

[Q] The old problem comes back

My phone, sony xperia m2 d2303 4.4.4 18.3.1.c.1.15
I was so impressed by the battery s life of this phone. one charge could last 10-15days! however, recently, i have upgraded the softwair to latest version. the problem started it again. The battery leaks like a sink without a plug. I had the problem before, but sovled it by resetting the phone, but this time, nothing seems working! one charge only last less than 10 hours. What is wrong? I have tried everything suggested, but no use at all, and i am very frustrated!
Please can someone kindly lend a helping hand here? Many big thanks in advance.

Phone status? Root? Locked unlocked bootloader?
Have you tried a factory reset, or a complete fresh install of the ftf. I am on 18.3.1.C.1.15 myself and my battery life is as good as before I updated also it can take a while to settle down after a update. Also there's no way a full charge would last 10-15 days unless the phone wasn't used at all n it just sits there like a paperweight

Either software repair option in pcc or just flash whole ftf via flashtool.

Install some battery app like GSam to see what draining you battery, and if you have unlocked bootloader, flash ftf, PC Companion won't work.
Good Luck.

S4 mini LTE problem

Ok,first of all this is my third post so if it shouldn't be here please transfer it to another section.
I have this I9195 model and baterry started to overheat a month ago so I thought it was a baterry so I bought a new one but even with a new one baterry overheats I didn't know what to do so I went to my service provider to see if hardware(phone) is faulty but they said it was all great and that the phone isn't a problem so it got me thinking can it be this new OTA update I made to kitkat?
Can someone please help me? I really need to fix this even now while writing this post I can't hold the phone in my hands from all the heat it generate... :crying:

If you think there may have been an issue with the OTA then see if that same kit kat update is available in an stock .tar then flash that with Odin. You may have to boot to stock recovery and factory reset and wipe cache if the device bootloops after flashing with Odin. That should fix any software issues on your device.
I already did that but nothing improved so I am thinking going back to Jelly Bean...

xperia z3 problems

For the past few Months my Xperia Z3 dual is acting weird . The problems that i am facing till today are
P1. The phone gets extremely hot ?
A1. Before you comment any thing I know the snapdragon 801 does get pretty warm after heavy use but not as warm as i begins to do simple task like even just reading an article on 25% brightness . I tried different kernels reduced clock speeds but none of them did any work.
P2. random reboots and crashes
A2. This is confusing for me the phone reboots it self . It fist hangs and then power off to the sony logo than it gets stuck at the boot animation and the process starts again . It does limit on Custom Aosp roms but not much .
if any of the people around here could point me the directions for these problems or just tell me its a hardware issue not a software or vice versa . I would be happy and will thank you its being over 1.5 years since i have this device i loved it for its specs and rear camera but the annoying things it just keeps repeating and repeating I hate it.
Thank you
P.s : My Phone is An Xperia Z3 Dual (D6633) running on stock android 6.0.1
Just give any thoughts on this thread i will thank every one you will participate in this thread there is no nougat for my xperia and even if it hangs at marshamllow i dont know. Please help

I think then it's a hardware related issue. Take it to a Sony service center, probably they can solve the rest!
