I have a question regard this option.
I have stamina mode enabled and this option is enabled as well, but sometimes this option will turn off by itself and I don't know why and what I cause for it.
I don't think that stamina mode will cause it because I turn the option on again and live the phone on standby in stamina mode for a few hour and didn't turn off but sometimes it will do it by itself and it's noting that you can guess about time or what it cause for it.
If anyone knows why, please let me know.
Same here, I decided to automatically use my finger to tick on back the
X-Reality.

I recently purchased this phone and I am moving from a Nexus S, which had auto brightness however I can't seem to find it in the options of the Xperia, I did remove a few apps when I got it so I just wondered if anyone could confirm if the phone has the feature or not?
Thanks
Yes it has, but you cant confiqure this by your self without root and some mods.

Thanks for the prompt reply, I'm going to hold off rooting until I get my unlock code from my network.
Its on by default.

I used "Quick Settings" to turn off auto brightness but it's good to know it can be turned off without installing anything
Using xperia arc over 6 months so trust me, it work very well. I will explain to you via PM when i get to PC

Just tested the auto brightness in bright sunlight. It is working fine. Put my hand over the sensor and the screen got darker. Removed it an the screen got brighter again.
The brightness changes are very slow though. It takes the phone a few seconds to adjust. Which actually is pretty nice since you don't get abrupt changes.

Guys I have problem in auto rotation, while im charging my phone, the auto rotation is like turn on automaticly although I dont turn it on. Even the launcher is able to landscape.
Sent from my LT22i using Tapatalk 2
If you have played some game or opened some app which it has landscape option, than its ok otherwise make sure you have the latest fw.
Sent from my LT22i using Tapatalk 2
So the problem came from the running apps which need landscape rotation?
Sent from my LT22i using Tapatalk 2
lots of apps running in landscape mode have problem release from phone memory.. i have these issues after unpluging headphones followed by calling anyone..
also check your setting on Smart Connect settings just in case...
upgrade your firmware if required if its lastest try using fast reboot apk still not then use memory sweeping applications still not see if a restart can sort out this issue if still noooooooottttt then flash the os again or factory reset...
These issues are temporary and are resolved automatically...

Not only XP, your problem is bug stock rom ICS, I experience with my phone XU
Sent from my ST25i using xda premium
Maybe your phone thinks that you have connected it to dock, try to find some option to change that in smart connect.
Same problem with my Sola ICS, Auto rotation is on for SystemUI, so much annoying
I have been reading in many threads in the Xperia Sola/P/U sub forum that one should turn off auto rotation to save battery if that feature is not being used.
I used to do that. Until yesterday evening while playing Temple Run, when a doubt came to my mind.
Since auto rotation is turned off. But the guy in the TR2 picks up movement from tilting the phone also. Which means the gyroscope (on whatever device that is used to measure angular movements) must be running even after auto rotation is turned off..
So if gyroscope is still on, is there any actual battery saving?

By turing off auto rotation means
Screen will not rotate while in normal apps, gallery, brpwser etc
It doest mean it will completely turn ur senor off...
Games require gyroscope so it will run while playing
Sent from my Xperia U using xda premium
That will turn off sensor for screen rotation but not for games.
But if you arent playing game and you have autorot turned off you are saving battery
Ps sorry for my bad english

If Auto Rotation off disables sensors, how are games still able to sense movement.
If auto rotation off does not disable sensor, how is battery being saved?

It does disable the sensor, but when you install some apps (games in paticular that use the gyroscope and stuff) they have the permission to turn it on, but outside of that app it will be off. Very simple actually

Turning off autorotate will not save your battery.
Also factor in the negligible savings from cpu not polling sensors, or processing animation for rotation.
It will NOT save your battery at all...

See my previous post. However small, a saving is a saving.

Hi guys I have a problem with automatic Network selection. Whenever I go on roaming or the state changes, the network doesn't come up until i select it manually despite of having selected AUTOMATIC SELECTION FOR NETWORK. Please Note the Stamina Mode was On every time i went on roaming, could that(Stamina Mode On) be a problem for non-selection of network???
Now i will try with Stamina Mode Off after then the problem will be correctly diagonsed, right guys??
Or should i add network selection app to APPS ACTIVE IN STAND BY mode and then try it???
Every peny of help will be deeply appreciated...
Thanks in advance. I am from india and currently on the latest . 475 firmware( Purely Stock Android)
Please reply..... Guys ...

Guys i have found one alternative... just add the network location app in APPS ACTIVE IN STANDBY in stamina mode and everything would be fine..
But this has to be fixed Sony. I didn't have this problem in my Xperia Z.. Please fix this Sony in the newer fw update. fingers crossed.

I had a similar problem, the phone will randomly connect to my office wifi network, home was fine though. Then I decided to disable Stamina Mode and all wifi connection problems are gone

Hello guys,
A happy and lucky Z2 owner here. I just wonder if there is any chance to keep the screen on while charging it (on the dock)?
I tried to find that option in Settings but couldn't find it. Any help would be appreciated.
Doesn't sony have an app called Smart Connect for this type of stuff? If I remember correctly, you can open Smart Connect and set a condition (attaching to dock) and an action change screen time.
I can't test and give you specifics as I'm on AOSP right now.

Tap on your build number 7 times to activate developer mode. Once in there, there is a setting to keep screen awake while charging.
