Am just waiting to hear the review for battery guru after disabling stamina mode.

Only thing differentiating them is the Notification LED, which works with battery guru but not with stamina mode. Functionality wise both, should be the same

Hi guys i know this Qs had been ask before but i cant find a soloution..
My silent and Vibration mode is not working when i try to activate it via shortcut

Solution:
1. Do a factory reset
2. Click Erase all data
3. After reset log in ur Google account BUT DO NOT CLICK RESTORE GOOGLE APPS AND SETTINGS
4. DL each app 1 by 1
5. Profit

Does anyone knows why my estimated standby time suddenly drop (stamina mode off) under power management?

At 100% battery level, the estimated standby time is 14hrs – meaning if the phone is on standby (screen off), 14hrs it will drain completely.
I swore it was much higher than that before today.

I also used Battery monitor widget to confirm that.

Reboot twice still the same. Is there some where I can force it to recalculate?

hi guys quick question...is buying a docomo sw unlocked xperia a good idea ? not gonna use 4g anyway

You need to take note that it will never support 4G even if you want it to in the future, as it is Band 1, 19 and 21 only.
Also, if you want to root, etc., you may end up losing out as compared to the international sets with a bigger user base. I have the same issue with my docomo acro S (HD).
The other thing for me is that since it comes in the same colours as the international sets, it is not really anything special except for the docomo and Xi markings. My docomo acro HD came in an eye catching aqua blue, which is not available on the international models.

Seems like the Sony's stock launcher can't rotate the screen even after I turn it on. But Go Launcher can?

yes its due to the brightness levels too , most of the mobiles get hot at the back since the XZ is glass it liberates it easily out

also strangely i see an app in the app list called overheating hhehe so the app controls the heat

The more computing power the more heat generated. Think if there is anyone who can come up with a efficient cooling system for phone should be able to earn big bucks!!

more cores means more power efficient ehh

More cores is more power efficient in normal operation, but better performance + power hungry in heavy duty apps.

Less cores limits the performance for heavy duty apps = less power hungry.
