Amazing Battery life on my REDMI 1s..

Hi friends,I'm going to share my experience of amazing battery life on my Redmi 1s..
What I did to get amazing battery life and better multitasking on my Redmi:-
1)I flashed the latest Mokee rom (Release version-272 MB) on my Device.
2)Flashed the Powersaver thermal config Mod.You'll find it at the end of this post.
3)I installed Trickster Mod Kernel setting APK from the play store and I did below modifications to it
a)Set the CPU max and min frequency to 300MHZ and 1094 MHZ.Turned on the CPU frequency lock.
b)Governer set to ONDEMAND and schedular to ROW.
c)Turned on MP-Decision,Set Multicore Power saving mode to 2 and turned on temperature throttle.
d)Set the GPU max frequency to 320 MHZ and governor to ONDEMAND .
(Set it to 450MHZ if you game a lot however it donot cause serious battery changes as per my observations)
4)Install greenify from Play store and hibernate most of the apps That causes cpu wakes (I greenified all downloaded apps )
5) Thats it you are ready to get most out of your redmi's battery. Please comment your experiences here.

If you do a little more changing in governot you didn't need to underclock because doing that you transform a powerfull phone into a Red Rice and that's no good!

i think he means that underclocking this phone to 1000mhz would definitely slow it down, rendering the quad-core powerful device incapable to functions at its best performance possible. im running 1344 mhz now and i think its enough compromise between processing power and battery mileage.

The config file is at the end of the post as an attached file. I've been using the max frequency at 1095MHZ for about a week and I didn't face any sort of lag in the performance but I dont game.If u game a lot just put GPU to the max frequency thats it.

If u are a hardcore gamer Just keep the GPU frequency to 450MHZ .You'll have no issue I played games like Real racing,Contract killer and even Good old NFS most wanted on my device.I faced no lag and note I didn't touched the CPU frequency.There was no issues like overheating or frame drops etc.

No I just Did what I explained in this post try battery calibration by Neema before calibrating charge your phone to full and calibrate,Reboot.If you loose any juice after reboot just charge it to full again and discharge to 0 and charge again.Note dont interrupt charging or discharging process in the middle.This might help you.

lol these are all battery myths and rumours ... the so called calibration is to be done to old lead acid batteries which is a obsolete tech now and the LI-ion and Li-po batteries we use are much smarter and they dont need to get calibrated and get done all the things you mentioned in your post and allowing it to drain to zero will only reduce the battery cycles left and thus reducing the battery performance so dont spoil your battery by doing all those things just make sure it doesnt die ( drains to zero) every time you charge your phone or else your battery cycles will be reduced

Xthermal Mod - Fast Charging + CPU + GPU Tweaks

Original thread for Nexus 6P is located here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/nex...t/xthermal-mod-fast-charging-cpu-gpu-t3433784
Hi Guys,
After a very successful journey from Redmi 1s to Nexus 6P, I'm now here with my Xthermal Mod for Mi 5.
I'm personally testing the mod since a week and will be rolling out all the profiles soon.
Till then I need your help to test it out in different conditions.
Please join and help me to make it more better this time.
I'm attaching Fast Charge only profile as of now.
Edit: Xthermal Performance + Back to stock added...

1. Stock charger supports max 2000 mah.
2. Max Charging current is controlled by the Kernel itself.
As soon as battery level increases the charging current goes down.
You might have observed that if battery level is below 50% then charging is super fast but after 60% it is very slow.
If you (your apps) do not use the handset resources much while charging then you do not need this mod.
If you use your handset while charging (which is strongly not recommended) example for gaming, browsing or chatting etc then the temperature rises slowly slowly.
The stock limits are very aggressive and it starts throttling and your cpu, gpu and charging speeds goes down.
So this mod comes into play here and delays the throttling a bit resulting in better cpu, gpu and charging results.
Does it produces more heat?
Heat is directly related with performance. This mod itself doesn't produce any heat but yes delaying the throttling means the handset is able to use all your resources even if temps rises hence may result in a bit more heat + more performance.
The results are more amazing if you have a fast charger.
I believe there is no risk in flashing this but still don't blame me for all your actions.

Is there any requirements? Miui? Cm? Kernel?

Please upload the "back to stock" for mi 5. Thanks

I don't see "thermal-engine-8996.conf" file in my rom. Assume I can just delete the file (or re-install rom) to revert to default.
By the way, do you know what's default value for each before this mod? Hope this mod not increase the threshold too much. Worry it will boom.
I've read original thread, what I understand is our phone will charge faster but trade off with hotter while charging.

No need to flash both as fast charge is there in performance zip too...

Just flash performance zip.on miui 8 6.9.29 i feel the phone faster then before,fast charging work good,just for test from 20%to100% 50min.Good joob

Just flashed it too. Phone seems much faster will see about charging and battery drainage but I prefer faster phone over battery always

Would you mind explaining technically what those mods do? e.g.: governor, upper and lower frequency limit, etc. Some of us like to know the geeky details

Heat

Some phones are great to take camping because if you play Asphalt 8 long enough, the back warms up to the ideal temperature that can bake bread. Rate this thread to express the extent to which the Lenovo ZUK Z2 (Plus) stays cool under extended heavy use. A higher rating indicates that even when playing strenuous games for long periods of time, the phone doesn't get uncomfortably warm.
Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!

Phone gets HOT when charging and even playing some mid-spec games :/
The heat can be felt outside of the back cover too

Is this a stock ROM issue ?
Sent from my ZUK Z2132 using Tapatalk

On AEX 4.5 there's no excessive heating even at long hours 3d gaming while charging. Many ROMs have heating issues even while the phone is idle

strange but i noticed that clearing apps from memory frequently resulted in heating on my phone. didnt clear a single app since 2 days and it didn't heat at all. stock rom.

For me, AEX 4.5 is the greatest ROM for now on all aspects for the device (Great battery, many customzations, smooth and bugless).
Volte is working on most of the ROMs including AEX (there's no Volte in my country but other people have confirmed it)
(If you really care about security you could try Jaguar [it's targeted to slightly more advanced users] and i THINK most features come with Resurrection Remix)

Chill Bro
Am truly satisfied with this device
Sent from my ZUK Z2132 using Tapatalk

Of-course this device has heating issue. I can certainly feel it even over the back cover. I am a light/moderate user, never play games. So, I can imagine how hot it will get if engaged in gaming.
Taking no credit from independent developers, but in my opinion the stock ROM is the best. There used to be a time when Android wasn't mature enough and these developers helped bring more options to the plate with custom ROMs. But now, it is not required. I used to be a active rooter/tweaker of devices but I have stopped doing them a year back.

Cool phone, cooler than most phones under load. Especially, cool during calls. A bit heating when using data

Got my heating issue resolved by capping the maximum processor speed at 1920MHZ. On stock room, after running 2 benchmark tests continuously, the temperature on the back was 39.8 degrees. On Aex v4.5, it touched 38 degrees.

I have noticed on my phone with different roms that some utilize or interact better with the baseband than others. On some roms my phone will run on H+ and not change to 4G/LTE. When this happens my phone starts to heat up, and I have to reboot it. After reboot it will connect to 4G. On other roms it will connect to 4G automatically. Just an observation that I have seen over the past couple of months. I am running baseband 9-00026-M8996FAAAANAZM-1.63821.1. Does anyone else have this issue?

Aex 4.5 EAS 2.5.1. Eas 2.2 has slightly more battery life, let's say 15%.

I am planning to buy a used Z2 Plus. I it is only phone with Snapdragon 820 in my budget. Do you think it is a good idea? After all, it has the best hardware considering the price and good ROMs are also available here. What do you think?

How did you do that? How to under clock CPU?

Underclock

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Well, first you gotta have a custom kernel which supports cpu overclocking. I've had DarkMoon and Jaguar.... though I prefer DarkMoon.
Then there are two methods to actually underclock the processor:
The first is to use a software to underclock it directly...like set cpu, kernel adiutor, etc. This is a pretty safe process, without the risk of bricking the device.
The second way is by manually setting the clock speed for the "big" cores using something like termux/terminal emulator. This method is what I used for underclocking my device. This is a very direct method, though it has a HIGH RISK of bricking the device.
Before you type just check which cores are big.
In termux shell with root permissions, type:
echo "1920000" > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu2/cpufreq/cpuinfo_max_freq
echo "1920000" > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu3/cpufreq/cpuinfo_max_freq
And reboot!
Don't try 2nd method unless you are ready to risk bricking your phone!
P.S. : You can do the 2nd method using a root browser and a text editor as well. Just go to that path and open the file "cpuinfo_max_freq" and change the value to 1920000.

Remove the back cover, let the heat dissipate. It will cool down on it's own.

My heating issues completely solved on aex5.2 after I installed kernel aduitor and enabled thermal throttling. Performance impact is only a slight bit, 152k antutu 7 vs 172k with it off, but the phone is completely cool to the touch now. It's a Snapdragon 820 thing, and that the heat dissipation mechanism is a little budget oriented in the back. Still a solid device!

Chek ur device it has some kind of fault thats why u get so much heating
Anyway no heating here

Best ROM?

Please anyone can suggest best ROM with great battery life and good performance and no heating (tired of heating issue)?
Kernel Tweaks and custom kernel suggestions will also be preferable.
Thank you

Try AEX 24th July build for starters. Then move on as per research & development.

Along with AEX ... U can try AOSPG ROM... Best SOT out there and good performance too
Flash Jaguar kernel in both the cases for extra sweetness

Tried AEX 24th July build, AICP, Cosmic OS, Pure Nexus but in every ROM I'm facing heating issue some ROM have good performance with less battery life and some have good battery life but weak performance.
Currently using viper os with Jaguar kernel. Antutu score is just 110000.

Go for citrus CAF 3.5

Thank you for your support
Using AOSGP-X with Jaguar kernel. No heating issues. Underclocked to 1.92GHz battery life is great. Performance is also good.

Pardon me for being a noob, what does it mean to switch kernels and how dangerous that is? I thought it would be better to choose ROM and stick to kernel bundled in the same package. I'm willing to explore if difference is noticeable.

AEX is the best with stock kernel.
Gives Everytime 6:30-7:00 hrs of SOT with YouTube chrome movies texting calling and gaming.
Use greenify.

Kernel is the bridge between the software & the hardware, it is a fairly simple process to change kernels, you simply have to flash the zip from the recovery. Read thoughrouly about the kernel you wish to flash, if it gives any extra features you would like then proceed

AEX 4.6 + Heliox 1709
I get 6+ hrs of SOT and the deep sleep is always around 97%.

Getting the same SOT with the Stock AEX Kernel.

No Rom is good for this phone here...i dont understand what's going on! is this some kinda race?, isn't it a devs job to complete the project before he/she moves on to the next one?
On one hand, we have 7.1.2 with so many bugs yet to be fixed in most of the roms, but these so called "devs" just abandon the project and run away to fix oreo which has 100 times more bugs than the prev ones.
It just goes to prove that there's no guarantee Oreo will be completely stabilized before you move on to Android P, there's no purpose for people to choose custom ROMs, instead we can stick with the stock...
On the other hand, I see devs fighting in each others thread....ridiculous!
Trust me, 90% of the rom can be build in short period of time, anyone can take the source code and build a rom, yes i said it, anyone can do it....but only a proper dev can build a stable, bugless rom...the remaining 10% is the pain in the ass...
I request every dev developing ROMS for this phone to complete your project before you move on to oreo...

Hi can you share details of your setup? and some detailed review of how it is working as daily driver. I am interested in this underclocked low heat setup.

Can you point me to the correct thread for this ROM. Can't seem to find the official one. Is it still in UNOFFICIAL status?
Also, does this ROM comes with CAF kernel? I see it mentioned in the change log in the ROM thread.
Also, I don't see any mention of underclock on the ROM thread. Did you underclock it yourself?
If so, will underclocking in AEX ROM give similar benefit of less heating?

How did you underclock the ROM? Using kernel auditor or it is underclocked by default or has some option to do so?

Can I over clock CPU?

What I have to do to over clock my CPU from 1.8 Gz to 2.2Gz I'm on bootleggers unofficial ROM , any one who knows ?

Flash a kernel that supports overclocking. Then use an app of your choice to set the max frequency.
I assume you know the risk.

Overclock your cpu and watch your device die faster due to overheating.

Faster as opposite to what..like 2 years vs 5 years? Haha!
Max thermals reach 46-48 which is only 2 or 3 degrees higher than stock & the temps/cpu clock anyway get limited by the thermal engine automatically after that.

It depends. If you do a full overclock you can risk killing your motherboard faster.
Slightly overclocks don't affect with nothing if the cpu temperature increases with 1-4°c.
Still, getting better cooling on your phone is a much better choice. Changing the thermal paste etc etc.

This is irrelevant to the op's request/question.
I dunno why a simple question thread couldn't be followed up by discussion of simple answers?
Look, It doesn't matter even if it destroys the phone cuz that's not the point of the thread but if you were insisting to be pedantic then that still could have been added in the end but only if you'd chosen to atleast answer something relevant at first = being relevant.
Ultimately these types of posts/replies are no different than spamming say a redmi forum with lenovo or iphone related questions..
Regardless of the above, oc on current kernels is not dangerous as such because there is no alteration/upping of voltages manually.
*** There is also a fixed "setpoint" of temperatures, frequencies,voltages etc in the inbuilt thermal engine profiles which no simple oc of frequencies is going to get past through unless one decides to disable it manually . If the temperatures reach even the lowest thresholds of preconfigured "high" levels then the chipset will start to downclock at once in fixed steppings***
