Anyway i bought a spare battery (Mugen), i always have it in my bullet so now i never think about battery.

Besides, if you underclock the processor to 702 you could have even more juice.

      Charge your device often. This will not affect the lifetime of the battery.
      • Downloading data from the Internet is power consuming. When you're not using the
      Internet, you can save power by disabling all data connections over mobile networks.
      This setting does not prevent your device from transmitting data over other wireless
      networks.
      • Turn off GPS, Bluetooth™ and Wi-Fi® when you don't need these features. You can
      turn them on and off more easily by adding the Quick settings widget to your Home
      screen. You do not need to turn off 3G.
      • Use the Extended Standby Mode setting to minimise battery consumption when the
      screen is inactive.
      • Set your synchronisation applications (used to synchronise your email, calendar and
      contacts) to synchronise manually. You can also synchronise automatically, but
      increase the synchronisation intervals.
      • Check the battery usage menu in your device to see which applications use the most
      power. Your battery consumes more power when you use video and music streaming
      applications, such as YouTube™. Some applications downloaded from Google
      Play™ may also consume more power.
      • Close and exit applications that you are not using.
      • Lower the screen display brightness level.
      Turn off your device or activate the Airplane mode setting if you are in an area with
      no network coverage. Otherwise, your device repeatedly scans for available
      networks, and this consumes power.
      • Use a Sony original handsfree device to listen to music. Handsfree devices demand
      less battery power than your device's own loudspeakers.
      • Keep your device in standby mode whenever possible. Standby time refers to the
      time during your device is connected to the network and is not being used.
      • Disable any live wallpaper.

Extremely bad battery, very bad frontcam, Sleep Of Death issues, low user available internal storage, not smooth performance due to only 1GB RAM.

                  Xperia V is a lemon, dont let its beauty fool you.

                                      My phone doesnt have the overheating problem. It only gets a little hot when i use streaming. Underclocking could be a solution. Anyway all smartphones have this problem.
