Xperia Xz`s battery drains very quickly (Build No 41.2.A.2.223)

Since I updated to the latest version (build No 41.2.A.2.223) my phone battery drains very quickly and the phone faced heat problem.Moreover sometimes apps not responding and lack of response at home.When dailing the `do not distrub mode' automatically come out. The most facing problem is the battery drains quickly in standby mode even i haven`t use the wifi, mobile data,GPS.Also facing in camera apps when taking picture in slow shutter speed,very hot and not responding.

So how next update will brings these bus fixes for us .I hope so.

Hi @Thiha, I am sorry to hear you're having difficulty with your battery life.

As a test, could you please try your phone in safe mode and see if you experience the same issues?

I am also facing the same problem, power does not last more than four hours on a full charge since I upgraded to the latest version of Android two days ago.

Please do something quickly as I am tired of lugging a power bank everywhere I go.

Thank you

I am experiencing the exact same thing. Good to know I'm not the only one experiencing this. The battery life was bad before, but now it's abysmal.

I've experienced a lot of downside on 7.1.1 compared to 7.1.

Lag issues:

- While playing games (even on a casual games which doesn't use too much resources) 

- While browsing on Google Chrome

- While watching videos (used MX Player)

- Basically the whole phone lags up when the phone is warmer than usual

Battery issues:

- Drain out much faster than 7.1 (seems like a 40% increase in battery drainage) 

- Battery charging takes like 70% longer to fully charge

Heat issues:

- Phone now heats up faster than previous update 

These are the issues I've experienced so far. Pls fix them quickly. It gets worsen after the update.

The mobile suddenly no cellular signal after i restart it.

no problem for WiFi.

Build number: 39.2.A.0.417

i have tried this article (https://recomhub.com/blog/how-to-fix-no-service-on-sony-xperia-xz/)

for `Run Ping test`, the result is 

IPv4: Fail(2)

IPv6: Fail(2)

HTTP Client test: Fail: IOException

for `IMEI Number`, i can see two IMEI Number items when i dial `*#06#`

Screenshot (8 Jun 2017 11-26-47 AM).png

And i found that

- on Settings > More > Mobild networks > Preferred network type,

i can see `WCDMA only`, `GSM only`, `WCDMA (preferred)/GSM` and `LTE (preferred)/WCDMA/GSM`.

it is selected `LTE (preferred)/WCDMA/GSM` but i can't change other items even if i tap to select others.

- on Settings > More > Mobild networks > Network operators

it shows `Select a network operator`,

i want to click to enter it but the page will be showing "Searching..." continuously.

Please advise.

Also, have you repaired the phone with XC >>> Xperia Companion

hi @uliwooly

My mobile is Xperia XZ, Android 7.0 (Nougat)

And I'm trying to use `Xperia Software Repair` but it cannot detect my device on the step 5.

5. `Wait until the application automatically proceeds to the next step`
