New Xperia Concept release adds improved tap-to-wake and battery fixes (MOB31E.Z1.3657)

Sony Mobile released a new firmware update for Xperia Concept users last week, moving the build number to MOB31E.Z1.3657. The update fixes a long-standing issue that many Concept owners have had in the past, where the phone would wake unintentionally if double tap to wake was enabled. An example of this is if the phone was in your pocket, constantly waking the display and draining the battery. Now, the proximity sensor will be checked before tap to wake is enabled, which should avoid any unintentional activation.

Other changes centre on fixing some of the battery info issues. So, now you are able to turn off the battery percent value displayed through the System UI Tuner. You can find the System UI Tuner in your Settings menu, but it needs to be activated first. To do this, swipe down on the status bar and long-press the settings cog until it starts spinning. You will then be able to toggle “Show embedded battery percentage”.
