So our wait for the latest Firmware is over and hope that everyone successfully updated to Firmware 6.1.A.2.45.
Don't you friends think that it is the perfect time to write a review of the latest Xperia S ICS Firmware 6.1.A.2.45 ?
What all improvements or bugs that you came across when compared to previous GB / ICS Firmwares.
Lets see ...

Well I updated mine successfully in the UK. my first impressions are as follows. First installed without wiping data and the screen awake bug was there. phone would not sleep. always kept awake with screen turned off. reinstalled software with wiping data and although the issue is still there, its not as bad. Battery life has definitely improved. Handset and user experience is a lot smoother. Quite impressed actually. There is a wifi bug. Connection is fine but signal strength is not there so wifi will disconnect every few minutes. was fine before update. Quick launch button is okay. its a hit and miss affair. works 2 out of 3 times. Widgets load a lot faster. No new apps apart from Wisepilot is now called Wisepilot for Xperia. No other noticeable improvements. Will give it a few days to see if there are any more bugs or if anything else has improved. Really annoyed as I don't understand what is keeping the phone awake. I've done everything to sort this out but clearly its a bug that Sony has not been successful in resolving. This eats up irrelevant battery. Although its not as bad as it was on the previous fw I was on. Any help would be greatly appreciated in rectifying this problem. One more thing, camera focus has improved vastly as has face recognition and auto scene recognition. Focusing is a lot quicker and better

Flashed the .45 cz rom yesterday with complete wipe & factory reset. Everything works smoother/faster on this new firmware wrt previous ICS versions. But my biggest concern i.e quicklaunch bug is still there (although it seems improved than before). Bravia engine still doesn't work for me on any ICS rom. Still checking the battery backup on this one. I wonder why many still face these two issues on ICS (and not on any GB roms) .
how to install ?? like with flash tool s ?

you mean Home launcher supports landscape mode?
Anybody got root access to the latest firmware yet?
home launcher was also able to be used in landscape mode since GB. Usually this is only possible when connected to HDMI. But I also recognized that it also works without HDMI connected sometimes. Might be a bug that sometimes it is also possible to use it in landscape without hdmi connected.
At the moment i recognize a shorter battery life yesterday. Today it already seems to get better.

yes.. there is a thread in the general section about preserving root. And I think there is a zip Rom in the development section for those with unlocked boot loaders

It's a kind of screensaver service I guess
Remember old NOKIA symbian days where we used to get a clock always displayed on the screen for infinite
The feature is a good addon but yes it uses a lot of battery
Thank god we have a option to turn it OFF or ON on our will

Sorry if my statement wasn't 100% clear. What I wanted to say is, that I get this feature with the 4.2.2 update. I'm not sure if this feature was already implemented in the .253 update or the .307 firmware. And I like the preview feature a lot!

For the size of the battery, it seems fine to me. I had a Note and Note 2 before this phone, and they lasted longer but had bigger batteries. I see lots of people thinking they have battery issues, but it's got a 5" screen. LTE is a pig in my experience, so you have to look at things like that.

Well in that case welcome to SONY family I am a big fan of sony having used X8 then ARC then Xperia S and now the beast Xperia ZL
Yes Samsung Note series does definitely win in terms of battery but in many things they are far behind SONY
Hope you are enjoying being with SONY

wow thats a lot on battery.. are you sure when you say 50%?
What do you mean extend your battery? Do you mean so that it lasts longer?
It depends on what apps and settings you have running on your phone. Things tend to fluctuate for me daily. There's some tips you can do to make things better:
- I tend to disable location (tends to dramatically improve things for me).
- I don't use Google Now, turned that off while I can still use Google Search. Doesn't drain the battery as much.
- Monitor and see which apps are using the battery. There's a bunch of various apps that can give you more information and to diagnose things.
- Check your Account "sync" settings and turn off anything you don't need/use.

But i dont like the 3 soft keys at the bottom of CM. Is there any way to delete them? Its really stupid and unnecessary.
Really? When I installed CM 10.2, I didn't get any soft keys. It's really unnecessary, unless your capacitive keys/button don't work.

No, it's simple if you have hardware buttons and don't want soft buttons, just try to search in settings or search in CyanogenMod support on their official site.
i see. i'll try that. its just that theyre so annoying. i dont understand how ppl can stand those buttons at the bottom of their screen knowing that they take up vital screen space.. very weird.

You can make the argument that the Galaxy S3's screen is TOO big, and that having those buttons wouldn't really matter.
Personally, I just upgraded from a myTouch 4G, which has a 3.8 inch display. That phone was much easier to use with one hand and a whole inch really makes a difference. I find that I have too much room on my S3.
Regarding your original questions, I do a couple things to extend my battery life:
- Keep the brightness ALL the way down when I'm inside. The display is probably the most battery sucking component.
- I use Tasker and it that knows when to turn my wifi on when I'm at home, or turn auto brightness on when a certain light level is met. Stuff like that.
- Use Greenify to hibernate most of my apps when I'm not actively using them.

but having a larger screen does matter, otherwise there wouldnt be such a big demand for larger phones to type and see videos and stuff with greater ease. so having those annoying buttons is completely unnecessary as any S3 user with a history of previously owned smaller screened phones can attest. matter of fact i'm thinking of buying a note 3 or wait for the S5 which will have a 5.25 inch screen.
i'm not yet rooted but will be soon. i never get round to do it. but its a nust and on my to do list. i want to greenify my phone to freeze apps from sucking out more battery and memory than is needed. after i root my phone i'll try out CM 10.2 as long as those stupid soft buttons arent in the way. the dev that created CM 10.2 must be really ignorant not to have eliminated them or at least given the option to remove them.

Those buttons AREN'T there in CM 10.2 for the S3 (I'm using the stable version), so don't worry.

Hi All I am Posting my results, I need a few ppl who could help and see if this is going to help everyone or only me
And to the critics, I will be doing a screen on time (SOT, ppl are asking and not getting answered) test, I am as eager to fix this so if you would like me to run anything while the screen is on, please let me know
An hour ago i put brightness at 100 while battery was at 50% been browsing the net with chrome using mobile data and it dropped to about 10%. Much less heat than expected although brightness was limited to 84 at some point. Will do a 50 brightness test tomorrow from full charge but wont be touching the phone much
Steps to Follow to give me info
Hi Guys,
Had a bit of time, this is the info I need, hopefully I will get responses from a view e98x variants, even other LGs would be great but please specify the details of your phone.
Download Battery Doctor from the Play Store google dot com/store/apps/details?id=com.ijinshan.kbatterydoctor_en&hl=en
Get it running , opened, etc and then look at the app usage info (scroll down) for the last 24 hours (seen in screenshot attached)
When opened please send me the screenshot or the the list of draining APPS, I have hidden my top drainer that consumed 98% of my battery in the other attached screenshot. At the time of my screenshot I have not uploaded, it has used 34% of my battery and has been disabed for 19 hours. I cannot yet suggest the name or anyone to do anything with the service yet as I am still attempting to find out what breaks (so far nothing.)
I will send battery updates as far as I can.
Another Test
So the next thing I have done is charge full again, set the brightness to 50% and played Hearthstone for 3 Hours, I am personally pleased with the results as i could not achieve 3 Hours with the Phone before.
i get 3.5-4.5 hours screen from 100%
with [ROM][5.0.2]STOCK LOLLIPOP G.PRO V1.5 of bountyman334
with few modification mostly removing system apps
hello
Can you explain me what should I do to improve the battery life?
I never could have more than two hours of charge with brightness set to 100%.
sorry for my bad english

Can you follow post 2 and send me the details, The item I disabled eventually disabled my MTP and USB Tethering, as it doesnt bother me yet, I am yet to attempt tpo fix it. I would Highly recommend 30 - 60% brightness, anything more seems to not have a major impact on brightness, it just reduces battery life and cause heat, which reduces the maximum charge of the battery in future

Hi brunosp7, the app I expect to see is not listed, this is a good thing, however viewing the list, it appears that some apps remain open after use. do you have an app that keeps backround apps in check, something like this battery doctor or clean master?

right now I'm not using any app to stop background applications.
by the way, I think the application you want is not listed because the battery doctor app disabled many programs and services the first time I started.

Hello all,
As the title says, what is your opinion about Nougat? After reading so many bug related posts here and in reddit, im frustrated to update to the newest version of android. How does it compares to marsmalow in terms of battery, performance and bugs? Is it safe to update now, of do your suggest to wait a little longer for a bugfix update? And finally, if your suggest me to update, do your recomend any custom rom/ kernel?
Thanks in advance.
Fine, I love my 5X, but there are some bugs that I have:
*In Whatsapp audios or call if I put my face in the phone (or simple if I cover the distance sensor) the screen goes black and I can't turn on again...maybe if a press the power button 3 times the screen turns on. that is REALLY annoying!, I dont know if is a software problem or if my tempered glass is the real problem...
*The screen rotates very easy...sometimes I move my phone just a little and the screen rotates...
*When screen turns off it doesnt fade "slowly"...its something cosmetic but I dont like it haha

Hm, i dont use whatsapp so i dont mind if there is a bug about it. Do you have the same problem during calls too? Also, what about battery and performance?
I have these bugs:-
1. I have a problem with the battery percentage toggle, i change it to like "everytime" but sometimes it auto switches back to "only when charging", in 6.0.1 there was only an option to show percentage which worked fine.
2. I also have a problem after sep security update the swipe up from overview to open multiwindow doesnt work, it is on in the settings tho, it worked on the first 7.0 aug security one but now it doesnt.

I used it since 12 september. Yes, good launcher, but I installed it as apk, so google now doesn't work.

I think i can live with a few bugs. What about the more important things like battery life and performance? How do they compare to marsmalow?

I recently reverted back to marshmallow, I was getting horrible battery drain. Like 10℅ an hr while in my pocket. I had to leave it on battery saver mode if I wasn't going to be near a charger. But besides that it's awesome, love all the new features.

For me, unlocking the device harder. I have to swipe further in order to do it, and it also happens when I want to swipe a notification at the lock screen.
In addition Spotify song playing from google now through an Android Wear does not work unless the Nexus is unlocked.
Finally, battery life is not really god in my case.
After reading your replies, i decided to stay in marsmalow for a couple of months. Thanks everyone
It's only been a couple days for me but everything is working well on the stock OTA update so far.
I like the new features and Doze is working brilliantly again so there is a noticable improvement to battery life.
