no, if you do, then the stamina mode won't be as good, but also, keep in mind that keeping the screen on like I can see on the screenshots will drain your battery, after all its a HD 5.2in screen

Indeed, there's nothing wrong with your phone.

Hi guys first post,
My contract was due an upgrade so I moved to android with the new Z3 and I am very happy. The phone seems all round a solid choice and initially very stable.
Where I come unstuck is on general set up - what should be set to on or off so as to ensure I'm maxing the much announced battery life.
I have it set to sync, GPS is on, lifelog is on and have accepted most of the Google content as and when I have opened them. Generally Bluetooth is switched off but I'm not sure what should/should not be on?
I'd say I'm an average user with a combination of browsing streaming downloading listening to music taking photos..... Oh and nearly forgot making calls 🙂

When I first charged the phone it was showing 4.5 days with stamina on and around 2.5 with it off, and it stayed this was for a couple of days then for some strange reason went to around 2 days with stamina on and a little under 1 with it off. I am still very happy with this but just wondering if in those first few days it adjusts to your usageand that's why it dropped?, as all I really done in this time was add a few pretty installed widgets to my desktop and generally use the phone as intended.

I would have uploaded the screen pics but don't know how lol....or what the lines mean in the battery usage section!

Thanks guys

Yes,the Stamina mode adjusts your battery consumption and cleverly estimates the battery time.

In my Z1 case,i have around1-2 days battery without heavy use,but onced i played games for around 3 hours straight.The estimated time quickly changes to 12-18 hours left.

However,if you want your phone to re-learn your power consumption,you could go to Settings > Apps > Swipe to the right until you see All > Search "Extended Standby Mode Controller",click it and press "Clear Data" and restart phone.

The lines meant in the battery usage section meant the Mobile Data/WiFi/Screen Awake/Charging usage throught yout battery up time.
