As I suggested earlier, it is due some "bad app". With stamina mode you should lose no more than 5% overnight. Few days back I installed Snapdragon battery guru on my phone. I lost 30% battery in just 1 hour. Imagine !!

Some apps can really screw your battery life bad, you need to find what that app is

Hmm,Let's see maybe Android 4.2 will fix it :)

Install this app

*play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.vertiform.android.app.batteryspy&hl=en

And check what app is eating your battery

Sony can't fix it, it is due to some app u have installed. So you need to find that app and uninstall it

And also do you close apps or leave all apps running even when not using the phone ?

Yes I do, I have seen whenever there is a misscall "PHONE APP" uses the most battery.
Anyways that app looks confusing :p

Yea, it is slow. I don't know the exact time as I usually charge it while sleeping but it is longer than other phones.

Yea, I charge it in night only. I am not a very heavy user though. Mostly WiFi and Data are on all the time, around 50% brightness and whatsapp running mostly. Also use camera to click 3-4 photos daily, and am left with around 20-30% battery. Watched movie on it with 60% battery, with WiFi on in background and switching to whatsapp in between multiple times and had 20% left.

Hmm... Thanks for the info.. would post my observations tomorrow..

Guys last night i just was totally surprised and shocked to see my battery drain from 94% to 82% while on standby in an hours time...
I tried to do some R&D to put some brakes on this draining. In my observations i saw an app "MediaServer" taking up almost constantly 50% of my battery's life... second was "Android System" on 24-25%.

I restarted my phone, cleaned the running apps.. Cleared the Cached apps... but still this app isn't bulging... Yes in the process i managed to get its consumption down to 35% and then it kept going down (Now its at 23%) but its still present. Now the android system is at 39%. Some other apps are below 5%.

I'm not pretty sure how i can control this app as it keeps sucking the power as we remove the pulp from a fruit...

Now in the morning it was 75%(drain in standby isn't normal but fine can manage 7% drain for 7 hrs)

Any Suggestions/Idea's... Help!! :D

You people seem to have some serious issues with the battery life.
Do turn on the Extended battery mode/Stamina mode...it significantly extends your standby time. Then you shall lose as much as only 2-3% in 5-6 hours :D
Those power saver modes indeed are not gimmicks, I can confirm it from my experience :)

@Random ... i forgot to charge it for 8 hours the first time from 0%... Now again I have brought the battery to 0% should i keep the charging on for 8 hours this time(this would be second time charging), so that it keeps charging even its 100%..

And i can use the phone while its charging right??

Yes you can do that, and no it's not a myth. There is an entire thread on XDA about the benefit of doing what I mentioned.

Ok, thank you... will do that... As there's no harm in extending the time of charging as its not gonna harm in anyway... ;)
