How does it play on the Xperia Play? I am getting so tempted to by this device along with the Mugen 3600mah battery and 64 GB micro sd. Anybody else have this set up with extended battery and sd? How it is for daily use also hows the battery life? Hows netflix on it?

Battery life on the Xperia Play is not good. You can get a day of use with moderate usage. It drains a lot when using wifi and playing games.
When you play HD games like GTA 3, Shadowgun then your battery is gonna drain like hell !
I was expecting better.
Lol? I optimized my device so much that the stock battery lasts like three days. The battery life on this thing is amazing, just use it wisely and optimize stuff.

What do you mean by ' optimize ' and how long do you charge your phone for ?
And do you play games on it and use wifi heavily ?

I have wifi constantly on but use the the general mode on both juice defender and easy battery saver and don't even get a days usage really (although I did just reinstall easy battery saver today). I haven't even played on any games. That's quite bad I think so what could I do to improve this? Not rooted

Nothing too serious, i'm quite a noob at this stuff (first android device). I just rooted, cleaned the bloatware, frozen other stuff like the stock launcher, installed a very light launcher, disabled the boot animation (boots so much faster), did the adb setinstalllocation 2 trick, and a couple of other things. I mean, i always have low brightness and i only have wifi on when i need it, but i do play games. Of course the three days mark is only achieved when i don't play, but it definitely got even more awesome than out of the box (even there, it rocked, at least for me).
Anyone know if Ice Cream Sandwich update will improve battery life ?

I actually run the exact same stuff you wish to purchase, and i can kill the phone in 1 day if i play castlevania, symphony of night for about 11 hours straight, other than that for an average day of minimal use, maybe a half hour web browsing or so its drains about 6-7% in the approx 10 hours off the charger.
this is overclocked to 1.5ghz with a slight undervolt. the 64gb microsd works fine, i have aroundabout 10gb left free on it, as does the majority of psx emulation using fpse, n64 is a bit more spotty, everything older runs 100% perfect.
i cant comment on netflix because it isnt available where i live.
Confused...The title of thread is mega man legends 2.....so where is this game available for Xperia play? Is it on an emulator or gameloft?
Ios suckkss.
I just finished playing Asphalt 6 HD for 15 mins and I lost 16% !
So if was to play for an hour my phone would shut down right?
How about that right? How can this happen?
Why me?

Thanks are you running on the 3600mah battery?
And its a psx game ran off the emulator to the guy asking.
Also is there a compatibility list on this forum for PSX and N64 games?
I've searched and haven't seen one.
Most users who are saying that are saying that their battery lasts for 2 days or more are those who leave their xperia play on standby most of the time. Only use it a little bit here and there and a bit of gaming. Or are using a 3600mah battery.
In no way can you get 2 days of gaming full whack usage from the stock battery.
Played 9mm HD on stock GB 2.3.4 no overclock,oem stock battery
with 100% brightness,Wifi On,Multiplayer online,no data (airplane mode)
after 3- 4 hours of non stop playing,then it's shut off.

Your rooted that's why. I'm not.
You have deleted all that bloatware and stopped excess processes from running.

no,i didn't use anything to improve my battery life.
seriously,the battery are good to me,compare with my previous galaxy s2,xplay will give you aproximately around 30 min -1 hour more life.
i saw your post about battery life in another thread,but i forgot which is was.
seriously,maybe there is something wrong with your device/battery.
xplay does really have good battery life,at least for me.
Hi all,
I am using the international version of the G4 and the battery life is quite poor. I am not a heavy user, bit of social media, music for a couple of hours and a little internet. I need to charge at around 3pm or it won't last until 7pm.
I've previously been very active in the modding of Samsung devices, but kept this un-rooted until now.
I am considering either rooting or flashing a custom ROM to get better battery life. I am more than happy with the G4 UI, so this is purely for power purposes.
Does anyone have a recommendation? Is it best to root and tweak or just flash a decent ROM? I had my eye on the 7 HD ROM.
Would appreciate some help.
Thanks!
When you want to stay by the stock rom, than its my experience to do nothing...
The nice CTT Mod gives you a little bit more performance and less heat but more battery draining :/
A costume rom can help because less usage of the cpu. But the stock rom is so nice ^^
Do you use the original charger? When I use my old Sony Ericsson 0,7A charger I have the feeling that the battery doesnt have the normal power....

Thanks for the reply. Yes, it's the original charger, so no issues there. I think it's a G4 issue rather than my device as I had it swapped out recently and it's very similar on the battery life.
I am leaning towards doing nothing with Android 6 coming in December.
Buy the xperia z5 premium. Cant go wrong

- Tell us your screen on time and your run time at the end of the cycle iw when battery is around 5-10%. Look in settings, battery, look at the list for screen click it and it should tell you how long its been on. Better still, post screen grabs of the battery usage, showing the graph of your usage with the list below it, so we can see which apps are the top consumers.AND the one with the screen showing how long its been on.
- Are you using this on wifi only, data only or a mix of the two ? how high is your brightness. auto adjusts and isn't very meaningful. so put it on manual and tell us what figure you are comfortable with.
- how much screen on time you need as well as run time so we can tell how close or far it is from your expectations.
- how long have you had the G4, how many charge cycles has it had. If you've had it for a while, is this something that developed after some time or was it always like this since you got it.
There are a lot of reasons battery can be low, we know very little about your use right now.
Screen 16%
Android OS 13%
Phone 11% (haven't actually made a call today)
Android System 9%
Spotify 9%
Google Play Services 6%
Cell Standby 5%
I'm using it mostly on 3G/4G, but turning wifi on when needed.
The phone one is a bit curious....
Sorry i need to see time figures in hours and minutes. percentages tell me nothing.
when the battery is 5-10 % how long is your sot.
And how long has it been runnning.
How long have you had this device ?
3g/4g is going to take a toll on the battery depending on the signal, whether you are stationary or moving when accessing data.

Better to get it running normally under stock first. And i don't know if thats the case right now.
Really appreciate the help, thank you. Let me get some screenshots up.

Android os sounds like autosync+GPS
Phone sounds like fast dormancy
Android system looks normal at 9% but still need a sot / time the phone was on for the period u recorded those stats.
Might wanna have a go at BBS and give us something solid to look at, that alone will help a great deal in solving the issue

This was yesterday
Full 100% brightness, with adaptive of course
Location services on high accuracy
WiFi on all the time
Mediocre data reception (2 bars mostly)
Heavy browsing.
I'd say it's pretty good considering the battery hogging 4k screen and SD810
My screen was 73% on battery stats
I am happy with SOT and in general the battery performance (note I used stamina few times only just for the test). It is much more better compared with my sg note 4 exynos. (But camera is not )
my first day with my z5 premium and big disapointed about the battery ... heavily dropped down since hard using ... will be testing stamina mode ...
I have to say the battery life on my Z5P is awful! I'm lucky to get half a day and I used to get at least a full day with the same usage on my Z2 and Z3.

Never expect the same battery life you had on Z2 and Z3. Z5P has that 4k screen and the power sucking black hole, aka Snapdragon 810

Well yes I will expect the same battery life if not more as that's what Sony are advertising! A two day battery life, same as previous models.
The screen is only 1080p unless you're watching video.
Half a day is NOT what I would consider satisfactory.

I can agree on the part about 2 days battery life like advertised, with that lovely "*" at the end of the claim.
The screen however, even though it runs mostly at 1080p the pixel count is 4 times higher than a genuine 1080p panel. Those extra pixels will still need power to work, no matter the resolution.

Playing Candy Crush for 22 hours straight can take its toll on your battery (and your marriage). Rate this thread to express how the LG G5's battery performs under heavy use. A higher rating indicates that it lasts a long time even when playing games, streaming video and audio, and doing other CPU-intensive activities.

5 HR SoT, LTE, Loc. Off, 40-70% Brightness, Music all day.
This thing performs really well compared to last-gens. (Note 4)

Yeah but the battery get's really hot when charging while using . Don't want a bomb going of on my eear
Played NFS No Limits for 6 and a half hours straight, wasn't very hot. Great battery life imho, sleeps like a baby, i lose 1-2% over night. Mine is h860, 6.0.1 v10a. Should i upgrade it to Android 7 because I've read that many people have a huge battery drain on Nougat?

ive noticed this too
but at least it throttles properly. it might get hot and charge slower, and work slower, but it wont cook itself to a bootloop like the g4 would.

Nope, h860 can't be rooted because the bootloader is locked, unlike h850

hi guys, so no one can inform us about the battery life?
I'm quite happy with my screen on-time. I get between 6 and close to 8 hours of use during the day, sometimes a bit less, depending on my usage. All in all, I'm very happy [emoji4]

Battery life is decent. My last phone had a 4000mah battery and this battery lasts the same or maybe a little bit better! I get betwwen 5-9hrs SOT with my usage.
Great SOT on this device. I constantly get 6+ hours. I can get at least an hour and a half or even more SOT with current battery level.
I get 6 hours+ with my moderate heavy usage.

So it's been quite a few months since my last post, and just more than a year of owning the phone, and I'm currently getting between 3 and 4 hours of screen on time lately, and have had to charge my phone a lot more often.
How is everyone else's battery holding up?

i play pokemon go and i cant go out without my powerbank now, im lucky if i get 3,5 hours of on-screen time, but without playing pokemon go; i will replace the battery next week (about 30€ legit battery) but may be due to a kernel bug on latest builds (remote chance)

I've been playing Asphalt 8, and now Asphalt 9, but my battery only started going down after the last update or two. Maybe it could just be the kernel, like you said. [emoji848]

Finally, I will try to replace it this week by myself, 17€ legit battery on Amazon, and yes, I'll tell you how it goes with the new battery (but my drain issues started with the 2 latest builds) (latest build B370)
Go to custom ROM. I am using Elemental V3 and I get medium usage battery life(always on, GPS_on, data_on, WIFI_on) for 1.5-2 days. Around 8 on continuous usage(internate, fb, netflix, GPS_on, data_on, WIFI_on). I am very pleased till now. I was using the Official one and got around 4 hours of battery life on high usage.

I'm on stock ROM, latest b168 build and SOT is still perfect. I have over 4 hours now, and battery is still around 40%. Wi-Fi and mobile data are always on, automatic screen brightness is also set. I don't know why you get so bad SOT.
Sorry, my P10 lite fainted on 28/09, just few minutes after the battery change, It literally passed by RIP, i bought a Xiaomi MI A1 for 144,30€ on AliExpress Plaza with disccount coupon, i can easy obtain 7-8 hours of screen on time now playing Pokemon go sometimes, can raid 2 times with a 4% of power consumption
