STAMINA MODE Stopped Working

for a week the stamina mode works and shows more than FOUR days of standby time.

Last night i plugged it in at 35% left on battery. Wake up this morning and discovers that the standby time changed to 1 Day 2 Hours.

i tried switching the mode on and off,  tried restarting my phone,  tried HARD restarting my phone . Nothing works.

and battery seems to drop faster in standby mode,  the phone randomly heats up at times, but I checked all apps and all SYNC options are off, nothing is running.

Is this a bug?  I DONT wanna do a factory reset again, since I already done it once. ( I did it because Stamina mode failed last time as well)

Hi Guys,

I also faced the same problem, i did some R&D and found the app "Eco Mode Controller" in the APPS>ALL Menu.

I did a Force Stop, then i did a clear data and then restarted my mobile. Now i an able to see that under stamina mode, the standby time is 4 hours and under normal mode the standby time is 2 hours..

Go and check for your self once and confirm back..

Try clearing the data on the Power Saver (or whatever app is called, sorry I don't have Z) app...

Go to Settings > Applications and find the app, there should be an option to clear data...

It will remove all the corrupted settings and you can reconfigure the Stamina mode...

If it doesn't help, come back here Winking_Face

Fire it up,

Well clearing data is not a permanent solution. Beside you loose your data from your applications when you clear it.

For eg. if you you clear your data from watsapp then it will earse your all chat history and then again you need to reconfigure your watapps.

Hope Sony will solve this problem in their next update. Till then bear with it.

Are you saying this is a software bug? The battery also drains very quickly i've noticed when this option doesnt work. On a full charge it just shows a standby time of 20 hrs

I tried to find the correct app but only found a "Extended Sleep" something, cleared data in that, Did not help.

I then proceed to clear all data in Settings app, also did not help.

Someone mentioned that the battery management app "Learns" my use and suggest a more correct standby time, is that true?  Because It is actually similar to my real life use time when Stamina mode was still working.

So last night I charged the phone to Full, then turned on stamina mode, left my celluar signal ON and went to sleep.  7 hours later I woke up and it's still at 100%. So somehow, Stamina mode still works. and there's no random battery drain.....

I'm confused SONY...

This is known problem, as I have found some from other forums got affected with same problem.

I have been using my phone for 5 days, and when I toggle on or off, the stamina just doesn't work, figure for stamina mode still same.

For me, it changed... Just first do force stop the service and then clear data and then restart the mobile..
