You'll only be able to properly comment on battery life after a few days of use.

When my Xperia Z is powered up, during the boot up screen can see a few white pixels, anyone else have this problem?

However when it's up. Everything is fine.

Like what they said in the other thread. Use PC Companion and do a repair.

Anyone has a Singtel and was unable to update to the latest firmware via PC Companion?

If you do, do you guys have a workaround to get the latest update?

After updating, the stamina mode timing went haywire again. Gotta force stop & add apps again.

I have not yet update because it will lose my root. I have added the white balance mod and other mods. Eventually will update...

I truly suggest those having issues or even no issues to do a pc repair for every new firmware update as some apps you have in your phone might be corrupted while upgrading the firmware.

Agree with what car lover mentioned. I noted the "werid signs' are so much similar to what happen to ACRO-s. After the new firmware settle in, it will run a process to "optimized" the currently installed applications and subsequently my phone went hay wired in terms of battery performance. So will start on Acro s to see if it does have further improvement with a recovery operations.
