Well, I actually think that looks pretty decent. Could you please elaborate the issues you're experiencing?

After 10 minutes i lost my battery to 72% after I post this post

From 100%? According to your pictures you've had the phone off charge for ~12h and the power is at 77%, which to me looks normal.

From what I can see, I don't think there is anything wrong with the phone. If it's a new phone it can take some time before the stamina measurement is accurate.

But my charging way is healthy yeah or I should charge it to 100%??

You can charge the phone whenever you like. The battery does not need to be at 0% to charge optimally. You can charge at 10, 30 or 75%, whatever fits you.

True,but make sure to never let the battery completely discharge. See this on how to charge Li-Ion.

Usually I am charging from. 40% to 90% but I want to know is it healthy to charge from 40% until 100%?

Any type of charging pattern is healthy,as long as you don't let it completely discharge.

Z3 dual future problems???

Hassoun907 — Thu, 09 Jul 2015 12:52:27 GMT

I have been searching blogs before entering this nice community that z3 dual has few problems like overheating and camera not opening and fast battery drain i am very worried so i want to take care of my z3 because I have been waiting 8 months to buy this superb phone

Re: Z3 dual future problems???

I own a Z3 Dual, and I assure you that phone may heat up to only safe levels, as normal. It did overheat once but that was because I used it to take pictures in direct sunlight in a very hot day (45 degrees). Camera works very well, starts in a second and very responsive. Battery depends on installed apps and amount of notifications/sync/calls/etc. I'm a heavy user and it lasts for a full day of calls and browsing with WiFi, GPS, and mobile data on.

Estimated battery time is surprising

Hassoun907 — Fri, 10 Jul 2015 06:40:15 GMT

Hey I got my xperia z3 dual sim running on kitkat last week .when i enter the power management it's giving that my estimated time is 24 hr without stamina but I think it should be more ????? I read on another community that the li ion battery needs to get after 5 or more cycles is it right
P.S when I bought my phone i turned it on directly to test my sim after that I charged it until 100%( ????)

Re: Estimated battery time is surprising

So you are still on KK? One thing to try that will reset stamina and the controller: first, make sure stamina is disabled. Then,go to settings-apps-all,scroll down to stamina app,tap on it,force stop,clear data. Restart your device.

Thank you it worked it gives 2. Days 15 hr that means my phone will last longer?

Re: Estimated battery time is surprising

Hassoun907 — Fri, 10 Jul 2015 06:59:35 GMT

Ibut I forgot to make force stop it will cause a problem?

Re: Estimated battery time is surprising

_alexdon_ — Fri, 10 Jul 2015 06:59:47 GMT

No it doesn't, from now it will learn your usage pattern and estimate according to that.

It won't be a problem if you force stop a process.
