Ok, I've enabled the Stamina mode to kick in all the time... after one full day of running, it seemed to sort itself out. Battery life has automatically increased by about 30-40% for me. From my usual 6-8 hours I can now get 10. Quite happy.

Another HUGE battery saver, display brightness... disable power save mode and just lower it to about 25%. This should give you about 3 more hours.

Hm, that's strange. Well, I'll keep my eyes open and if I find a solution I'll be back.


Many thanks

In contacts, when you press on the picture of your contact you get options to call or send an SMS right but does anything happen when you press the name of your contact because nothing happens on mine. How do you check the phone number of a contact without long press then edit? Never worked on my Xperia P since ICS, does it work on the JB update?

For me, it opens the contact's details.

Not sure I fully understand what you mean. Singel press on the picture will bring a small pop up windows from wher you can see phone numbers and also make phone calls etc. Single press on name brings you to the contact info. No long press required in JB.

Nothing happens when I press the names, nothing comes up so now if I want to see the number I have to edit the contact. Its a bug unfortunately, that needs fixing and I need my camera flash back! Hopefully the JB update should sort it all out.

New factory reset and now is ok
I think that Astro or ZD box has been in the origin of the problem!

Thanks

Manually updated to JB, most of my bugs are gone i.e. contacts, camera. Phone is running really well but I've put a custom launcher on to make it smoother. I like the look of the menus but not the white dialer and contacts. Wish you could make it black, same goes for the e-mail. Notification LED does not work with stamina mode which is something I couldn't turn off for my needs. I really wanted to have Dashclock widget but that's 4.2 and I have 4.1, bit of a bummer that. I'm very tempted to go for a Nexus device but would like it if they gave Sony phones with clean Android (plus fast updates) like what Samsung did yesterday, that would be ideal.

Ok, battery performance was hit/miss for a bit until Stamina Mode found the culprit:

Swype Beta prevents Stamina Mode from kicking in every now and then... even though I replaced it with the new version of Swype. Reverting to the builtin keyboard helped. So far getting an average of 10 hours with Stamina Mode on, vs 6 on ICS. Still looking for ways (other than disabling my data) to increase this.

I also traced an NFC issue I had with Automateit App. Smart Connect blocks NFC requests to any other app, uninstall updates and disabling it fixed issues with Automateit.

When I last had the Xperia P it was stuck on O2 network and I could not get it unlocked. I loved the phone and camera is one of their best. Picked up another new one today for 179 sim free in black!! Happy so far but one thing,is Jelly Bean out for all now?? Mine says it's upto date via Sony Update Service.
