I wont have the time to check .253 soon. But the script and the file list for .224 will most probably work with .253. There was a few changes between .185 (Android 6.0) and .224 (Android 6.0.1), but as .253 is still Android 6.0.1, Sony may not have changed many .apk filenames, possibly none...

Just tried another app that also does the job : Super Backup : SMS & Contacts https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.idea.backup.smscontacts It exports a single .vcf file, with embedded 720x720 jpeg (unlike the standard Sony contact apps which exports a .vcf file with only 96x96)...

I asked myself the same question yesterday, did a search here and found your post. Digged a little more, and found some app : Contacts Backup Ultimate https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=at.specsoft.contactsbackupultimate Small, free, and it does indeed backup contacts as a XML file...

If you mean the list of recent opened apps on the side of the drawer, it's part of the launcher (/system/app/home-release), and you don't want to remove the launcher : ) , so no. (It would need hacking this package - there are other threads about modded sony home to install and replace this one...

Here it is (changes from .185 to .224 described at the beginning of the list file).

uid=2000 means the pm command was executed by user "shell" (the one you are in adb shell). So you were not root. You should have a # in front of the command line instead of a $ when you are root. Perhaps you missed the supersu prompt, or you previously denied it. pm hide itself does not need a...

I don't think there's really much wakeups to fight. I'm quite sure you don't have many less on your Nexus (I checked on a friend's htc10, and he had a lot more than me, with all the google location stuff activated - and he got 2% drain a night...). I think Titanum backup freeze just does some...

No need to reboot. I did quite a bit of hide and unhide without needing a reboot. Android does things well when hiding : packages appears to be removed, other packages are notified of that, alarms triggers are cleared... I tried 'disable' last night instead of 'hide', and got 1%/h. Although it...

If you're rooted, you can try it in 3 steps (what I did, i just guessed the one line adb shell, may be it doesnt work without su) : adb shell (get a shell) su (becomre root) pm hide com.google.android.gms Similar paranoia for me. Waiting for some feedback from the 0.3%/h people ! (no...

Thank you Tobias for your work ! Very clean and understandable script. I learnt a lot of things while reading it, and browsing thru the extracted ramdisk. (Thank you also for the silent ipacm policy fix - it was adding noise to logcat for weeks !) Just wanted to report something about SuperSU...

No, nothing else (just a backup before !) To unhide : adb shell pm unhide com.google.android.gms (Tried hide/unhide a few time this morning, without the need to reboot.) Looks like my /data/data/com.google.android.gms/ has not been cleaned by my 'hide"s, there's lot of things in it from a...

I installed .224 (debloated) : still 1%/h. With Stamina always activated : no change. With UltraStamina : 0.3%/h (but the phone is so limited that it's no option). It didnt work that well when I tried it on Lollipop. Went back to normal mode, and tried a night with bluetooth activated (like...

It did not last ... Lost 5% over 22 hours, with an estimated battery life of 11 days ... Then this morning, I enabled wifi, did a few things, disabled it, and it began to drop 1%/h again. Surprisingly, I didn't have any com.google.* activity in logcat for the 22 hours. I have observed that in...

87% just now (too early yo rejoice, and it will probably not last). An other thing I did this morning after reading http://forum.xda-developers.com/z5-compact/help/rooted-z5-compact-battery-life-t3371250/post67131957#post67131957 was charging from 51 to 91 with the stock Sony charger (been using...

Thanks. That has shorten my list of sony only suspects : /system binaries, running on Sony stock, not on Nexus : adsprpcd apfd audiod brcm-uim-sysfs fidodaemon idd-logreader iddd illumination_service javadumper kobjeventd mlog_qmi_service (nexus alt: /oem_qmi_server ?) ta_qmi_service (in CM13)...
