Battery drain 3x on 23.5.A.0.575

[Alper77]

I loved this phone with its two day battery life, even after Marshmallow .570.

Few days ago did the latest xperia system update, and now the phone, charged in the morning barely makes it to the eve, with normal usage.

In idle it loses around 5-10% per hour, when I take the phone in my hand, I can see the battery countdown.

Is there a way to get back to .570 firmware?

Same story here. Two days ago I updated to Android 6.0.1, buildnr: 23.5.A.0.575. The battery used to be great and one of the best on the market! Now it's so extremely bad and actually one of the worst on the market. Recharge every day and within 3 hours of average intensive use (whatsapp massages and searching the web, screen on for approx. 2,5 hours), only 50% left. Is Sony already working on this big issue? As I read, there are a lot more people having issues with the battery after the update.....

Same here. Fixed by uninstalling (returns to basic version of) Google Play Services. In this state the draining stops. A lot of Google-based apps and services do not work at this point. After reboot and update to latest version of Google Play Services (Play Store does this automatically) the Google-apps work again and the battery consumption remains normal. You have to log in to some of the Google-apps again, or re-enter an extra account if you manage other Google-accounts on your phone. In my case this went without any problems.

Used the Gsam battery app, and it showed me an app that was taking too much battery,

Removed the app, and now the battery life has increased.

Still testing, but at least now I don't watch the battery countdown

I spoke to an Support agent called Jason on the chat about the battery drain problem. He said he hasn't heard about it.

Is there a solution for this problem? My battery dies every 6 hours even if I don't use the phone.

I have to charge the battery middle of the day.

Jason said I should run the software repair and when asked how he said instructions will be e-mailed. I am yet to get a e-mail
