Well i am talking about 100 to 1%
Nothing much...
Just use single sim
Clear off ram frequently
Use earphones for media coz speaker sucks alot of power
Optimize all apps under battry optimization
Turn of AI boost
Just make sure battery is not being used in other unwanted stuffs. And there you go.. you can easily get 7 to 8 hours straight atleast.

Use single sim only.. use a network that can provide 4 or 5 bar signal. Turn off AI BOOST.. optimize all battery settings. Turn of AI Charging.. instead of it use the time duration for which you actually sleep. Clear your ram through period. Instead of speaker use earphones. And make sure to cut off every irrelivent power supply. And there you go.. you can drag atleast 7 to 8 hours on normal usage. From 100 to 1.

Download and Change theme from factory app.
You will have to customize app icons and wallpaper. Coz i am sure you wont gona like it anyway.
I can suggest you my personal fav. "Our own darkness". Its a black theme with yellow and orrange highlight.

Edit 1 : Oops didn't see the next page.
Some bugs in PIE
I have noticed some bugs! Lockdown is not available even after turning it on, and the power button menu still looks the same! It looks so old and pathetic. Also no sliding gesture available in multitasking pil. Quick icons and setting icons are still same (which is still okay but anyway the update is here) ,and anyone got any pixel like theme? which will change the notification panel quick icons and all?
Asus site says WW update, but TW SKU only?
Which one is it really? Using WW 8.0 atm, thinking about updating, should I wait for next one this month?

As far as I can tell there's no settings on these phones to change the notification panel. The only way is using the built in Themes app for ZenUI. That's how I got dark theme for it and the Asus apps.

Better you wait. I have updated to Pie and didn't realize that it is TW version. I have an Indian 5Z. Now I am wondering what if I found some strange bug and have to go back to Indian release and if it'll be possible. Asus haven't helped at all and if I can't update to the Indian version my only option is to downgrade and then update again. Plus, this TW build has some bugs. So better wait for official version of your respective country.

Just received an update through OTA, haven't done the update yet, has anyone got this, Sony has forced people to do the update, as you can't hide it or disable it, it will just stay in the status bar and as notification.
I updated but have no idea what was delivered. Firmware version remained the same.

That would be the first time one is forced to update/upgrade. Usually you can select something like "Always", "Only when connected to WiFi" or "Never". Isn't that no more the case with the Xperia X series? Hope it is...
yeh, I found out you can prevent the upgrade, but you have to do it before a upgrade pops up in the upgrade section.

I got no overheat, thank god.
The bionz is too aggressive, too much noise on pictures.
Stamina mode is a joke compared to before. It just slows the phone down.
Battery life seems OK, and it charges fast if gone dry

hey karrouma,
Do you need to be rooted to use Flashtools?
I show that my phone is up-to-date, but I still have the Contacts app issue (I don't care anymore cuz I use Contacts + app, but still). I've been having an issue I hope is gone now where phone randomly restarts on its own. I cleared all the preferences (or cache?) at once and restarted. So far it's good (knock on wood), but I wonder if doing what you did would help? But if it requires root forget it. lol
Also, on your box, on the side.......... what country/language codes do you see? Mine said ZH, EN which I guess was China and English for US/UK (or maybe England?? lol). HK would be Hong Kong, so still China. TW would be Taiwan. I've been told the Taiwan int'l version doesn't have the Contacts app issue.
Please let me know.
No root , u canuse flashboot safely if u know how to install your phone driver
Tw phone the dual with 64gb
Nice phone and nice size in pocket

Ok. Wait it's called Flashboot or Flashtools??
Not sure. I've rooted and unlocked bootloaders before, but I don't know the exact procedure for what you're talking about. Are there instructions somewhere online? Where did you go to get the FTF file? Is THIS it?
Ok you got the Taiwanese version. Cool. Mine's Hong Kong. I don't think the TW version ever had the stock Contacts app issue though.
Yeah I LOVE my XP!!

Apparently this thread was referring to a previous f/w and not the current one, also I can't find a thread that was posted before this.
HellRoot,
Ok so it dealt with overheating issues (I haven't had that happen as of yet) and the camera. So what, it made the 23 MP in Superior Auto mode better somehow??
Cool. I didn't see it. Thanks!

Stamina mode has been ruined and instead of my regular 54hrs at 100% battery, I now get 27hrs with the. 238.
Battery to me is everything, thats why i was very happy with my Sony Xperia x performance.
But not anymore.
Also i just checked, my batt was at 70% i tried turning off stamina mode to see how much the change would be, ONE HOUR difference with stamina mode on!
ONE!
VERY ANNOYED!
---------- Post added at 10:47 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:41 PM ----------
Is there a way to revert to back my system update?
Also, I posted on sony forums about it.
Posted in software section, for some stupid reason it was moved to xperia x section as a reply to a topic about 8hr battery.
I clearly stated it was xperia x performance and the system update 35.0.a.1.238. Yet when I went to check it was gone and move.

"Regular 54 hrs"? The XP just came out a month ago. What do you mean regular?
I tried leaving SM on overnight last week for about 7 hours, and the battery STILL goes down, but only 4%. It's not like the SM on the Z3, which was better but also to me quite buggy. Without SM overnight my battery went down 7%. I only activate SM when I'm gonna be out for more than a few hours, or else it's not worth it.
Note: Make sure if you use the "Visual Voicemail" app that after enabling then disabling SM that you go back into the VV app and re-enable it. Or else calls that go to VM will only show up on Notification Pane (VV notif won't show up) and you'll have to re-enable it later anyways, so might as well just remember to do it after disabling SM. Other than that it works pretty well, just not AS great as on my old Z3. But at least it's not buggy, and by buggy I mean super annoying MMS and random battery drain issues. MMS messages wouldn't always come in and randomly the battery level would free fall, and I'd have to FACTORY RESET the phone to make it ok. I'm so glad Sony finally fixed it, just wish it didn't lose any battery power overnight. Oh well.
Hello, did somebody got the beta in the beta app ? Because I have a P20 Pro and nothing appears in available projects in the beta app :/

EDIT : Same on my GF's Honor 10 C432
Not sure what to tell you. It's the same for me in the UK. It shows nothing is available. I'm sure there was only 100 slots. I could be wrong.

Yeah, I saw a lot of websites that said it will take a moment for the project to appear in the app so.... We should wait maybe :/
I also remember last year with my P10 Plus I wanted to go to the EMUI 8 project but it said it was full, so full or not it is supposed to appear
Beta can be installed using FunkyHuawei now https://funkyhuawei.club/flash/CLT-L29C432
I am signed in on my phone using Huawei's account, but every time I try to sign in after agreeing to the terms on the Beta app, I get the message "login failed", could anyone help me please?

I anyhow only see CLT-L29 8.1.0. FWs and not 9.
Nevermind.. Found. Pretty expensive to get a copy of FW that they do not own.
OMG I actually remember I have 1 credit since I rebranded my P20 Pro from C33 to C432 so I can install it soooo lucky ?
BTW if I get stuck or anything like that... How can I rollback to EMUI 8 ? Pretty scared now :/ If someone could try to see if it's safe it would be cool ?

So I charged my P20 Pro to 100% and now it's discharging so i'l tell you when it's gonna be fully discharged BTW the battery is not displayed in days but in hours now ( like 36 hours remaining). So there is many bugs, like some animation lags but it's not important at all, also some lags with the blur in the multitasking, but it's not important. EMUI 9 is really smooth, and I ran an Antutu benchmark, and it scored 125K, 15k more than EMUI 8 wich was at 110k. So yeah, really smooth.
I bought my device a couple of days ago.. First day I used AnTuTu benchmark and scored 205k. I updated to android pie yesterday and I now score 140k only. Why does this happen? Can I rollback to Android 8?
Me too

There is a really small one but I found what's going on. Honor was making device run at max in benchmarks and normal in all the other apps. Now they made a "Performance Mode" option which uses phone's maximum performance whenever you want. With max performance it almost hits same benchmarks as before..

I see. I suspected the same.
I have the same in my p20 pro i had 201,000 i antutu no after pie a i have 150000 ? waht to do ?
I am getting 207604 from AnTuTu V7.1.3 on Android Pie.
Do we really wanna upgrade to Android 9 then? Not that's available on Europe but soon it will be. Android 8 runs perfectly fine.
Score lower because cpu speed is around 1,5 GHz and only use 80% CPU performance based on stress test antutu
I'm sorry, I know I'm probably blind but for the life of me, I can't seem to find that performance mode option. Can I ask a kind soul here to point me to the right direction?
It's under the battery settings I believe it appears when you're above certain percentage.

Same issue with me i didnt see any option for perfomance mode.
156 build and I have button with battery at 38%
L29
it's only present in build 156.if you update to 157. you'll lose that option.
So Guys I'm having a really poor battery life on my Note 9 on Android 9. I get aprox 5 hours screen ontime, I used to get 8-9 hrs on beta pie or oreo. I just use my phone for social media apps, YouTube and stuff. Is there any one else who's having this issue? Can anybody recommend something to me for improving the battery life?
...........
Its a serious concern guys, battery life was the main reason I bought this phone for and its a real shame that the battery is so damn poor on latest update!

I used to have the same issue, but for some reason it's stopped after I disabled software updates. Now, I get close to 10 hrs.
Also, check these two in the screenshot out in developer options. Read on them and see what you can disable. They have a huge impact.

Google has everything you need. That's how I found out. I'm no expert.

Don't disable the first "software updates", it'll break your galaxy store apps. The second one is what you're looking for
For anyone wondering about standby apps and what the categories mean. Facebook is a big one for me so that's going into rare status

Same here, but i have noticed one thing.
After putting into rare status, it automatically goes back to active state after some time?

I just checked mine and you're right it is active again. I wonder.... So what's the point in having these settings if they just reset at an unknown point or with a restart anyway?

I wouldn't exactly say it's effed up but I will say I think isn't it just OneUI 1.0? It's the first build they have some stuff to iron out and tweaking to do. Battery usually gets fixed with an update here or there not a major one but one tailored for it. I'll give it time myself

I wasn't able to update any of the Samsung apps through the galaxy app store. Specifically "good lock". It always threw an internet connection error for me. It just messes with the galaxy app store in general.
Hmmm odd both of mine are disabled and mine update just fine. Agian was just curious.

Each region receives OS updates at different times. You should receive yours soon. The android 10 OS update release for the N960N was a few months behind the German N960F release date

Hi what font is that please? Really like it.
Canada should get it sometime before the Note 20...
hi guys. just received the wonderful update
but looks like not so wonderful
some apps are not fullscreen (you could see a space at th botom) even though full screen was already optimized or activated
also the new gestures only works on one ui and not on other launcher

gxfonts to install a font
but for the sony sketch font, you can google it
anyway i uploaded it here. extract this and use the ttf file on gxfonts
Thanks for that. appreciate it ?
I don't think it's meant to be though.
I've extracted your zip and upgraded gxfonts, rebooted my phone, but gxfonts refuses to build a custom font using the TTF file. Tapping the build button does nothing ?
mine is ok
can you try this? extract the ttf file
click Regular, and choose the extracted ttf file
bdw you too on android 10 right?
does your phone really goes full screen?
mine shows a bar at the bottom on every app
Hi, thanks for the assistance, though I've just managed to get it installed. It looks like the file name gx fonts was trying to save was too long, and didn't work until I shortened the name.
I'm not on 10 UI2 I'm still using 9 UI1, as I want to keep fullscreen in everything. If Samsung could sort that out I'd update. But I'm staying put at the mo.
hmmmm. so i seems im not the only one having this fullscreen issue then?
so you manage to install he font? nice

bdw I am no sure if this would help. I am on Android 10... and full screen working after factory reset
So you can turn on full screen and leave it on 24/7 without seeing the notification bar, nor the navigation keys at the bottom (using gestures of course). And the entire screen is used by the app you're using? No bars, spaces, blank areas?
I've heard different from other users, but it would be great if fullscreen immersive works like I have it now ?
