Is my battery life normal? - Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Questions & Answers

I just want to know if my battery life is considered to be in a good margin. I wouldn't be asking if I hadn't unlocked my bootloader and tried out 3rd party ROMs and then eventually settled on a stock MIUI. I don't think that screen on time is bad, it's just that standby seems to drain battery more than I remember from when I used it with locked bootloader.

3 days with almost 9 hours screen on time is amazing. That's pretty much as good as your going to get .

Okay, thank you for replying. It was probably bad experiences with flashing ROMs on other phones and then having bad battery life that led me to believe that something was wrong.

miui is way better than those custom rom if you know how to use it the right way

Best battery rom

Hi,i have just tried CyanogenMod 12, PacMan Rom and none off them last enough the battery for me.
I have just installed the Stock Rom debloated and it's much better.
Any recomendations?

Yes stock battery is pretty good, but I recently decided to try Blisspop rom with the 777 kernel and battery has been better than stock for me. Left my phone at 100% before I went to bed and woke up to 99% battery, that was a 9 hour sleep for me and when I saw how little it discharge over night I was very pleased. With stock for some reason my phone went from 100% to like 95%. But then again bad battery life can be caused by an app that is causing it to wake up, so user experience may vary.

I haven't measured that yet. just started to use Blisspop like 3 days ago, but I will test it soon enough and let you know
edit: well just checked I'm getting about 5 hours of on screen time, which is pretty decent. I'm not what you call a power user so mileage will vary of course.

Well that's pretty decent. Just a couple of hours ago i flashed BlissPop. Seems pretty decent, smooth, fast and battery friendly.
I think i'll be staying with this one for a time. Battery is pretty impresive too.

Nope it is not baked into blisspop, blisspop is running Tootsie if I'm not mistaken which is the stock CM12 kernel. But here is 777 kernal here:

If you really want to run a stock ROM you could always invest some time into patching up the whyred device and vendor trees.
The two devices are mostly identical and essentially just need a blob swap.

Works fine for me. Whatever the issue is, it must be something you did wrong, or something the seller messed up with your device before shipping it to you.

Can you explain what wasn't good? Did you try resurrected kernel with it? That eliminated lag.
No custom rom yet probably because pocophone just came out. Development has already started for that first than mm3 even though it's released later and I don't think many people like big phones the same as us

If you go to the thread - use my settings for best battery or tweak the max frequencies to your liking for performance. You can also choose between Performance, Balanced, and Battery for governor tuner in L Speed cpu tuner section.
Well biggest difference, 117-119K antutu to 130-132K - big enough reason. Aside from no lag and better battery. Plus, more tweaks are coming with better governors.

i have got 13h of sot on eu
@opasha stop lying. Battery is worse, up to 10h sot and your settings do not work. Ondemand governon works so bad with this Kernel. Interactive + noop + OC gives up to 10h sot. Stock Kernel 13h-15h.
But performance is visibly better.

Go take a chill pill and come back after you've collected yourself. No need to call me a liar for no reason. I never said to use ondemand with noop on the latest kernel. Go check the resurrected kernel thread. My recent settings are there. What works well for me and others on 8.8.9 eu rom may not be the same for you since you're not even on the same rom. The newer eu roms have more battery drain - it's noted even in their forums from members. Everyone's SOT is also different. You stated the most useless information. Grow up, man. If you've got nothing productive to say, move along.

Which Custom rom gives more screen on time ?

I need a suggestion of custom rom which gives me more screen on time. It may be any android version but what i need is. I need more screen on time and as well as dash charging supported. So that i can flash and use it without any low battery.

Depends on your customisation, usage and apps. That being said, in my opinion, sky dragon is the best pie rom, you can give it a try.
And go to havoc pie rom thread and search for "jamal", the search results will have a long af post by some user whose name starts with p.
It's a battery saving guide. That will help you get a lot of sot.
I have been using skydragon since 4 days.

I have been using skydragon pie rom since 4 days. But is there any way to get more screeen on time on any other rom.In skydragon the active drain is more in my opinion. It may be due to the usage of the phone i think. Ok Anyway thanks anything more guides or roms pls reply.

As my view, I just don't advise Havoc...
and I just feel that, maybe All Aosp-based rom is better than Lineage-based.. I tried Nitrogen, Omni, Havoc, AospA, AospExtended, Unicorn, from N to P, I could see Lineages is not well at SOT.
for my personal opinion, I support Aospextended & Nitrogen(bad temper dev XD)
just waiting for stable Aospextended pie. coming soon!
I like the elemental X kernel. You can still use OOS while increasing SOT.
Could you please share your highest sot?

Think my SOT is increased by 100%. I used to get 2-3 hours, now 4-6 hours. You should accept that the gaming performance is decreased though. But I think it is a vast improvement

Best rom for battery(SOT)

Hello everyone.
I was wondering what ROM you guys are using for the best possible battery results? (SOT)
I used to be a gamer and recently quit all games I've been playing. I'm currently using a mi globe rom.
I also changed my battery like 2 weeks ago but the problem still persisted.
The battery drain is devastating.
Even with the screen off, it drains like mad.
I want some recommendations about a ROM that will give me good battery results, be it official/unofficial or MIUI/custom, it doesn't really matter for me.
I like both.
I think ur battery is dying, and U should replace it. Check for few days battery status by AccuBattery from google store.
How is my battery dying, man? Did you read the post? I just changed my battery 2 weeks ago with a brand new one. It's just the ROM that drains the battery.
Oh, i'm sorry. I missed it...
Hello, my gf's mi6's battery seems to be going downhill but she's had it for about 3 years so it seems normal, I'll have to change it soon - one thing that has helped is flashing Paranoid Android ("Quartz 3") to limit drain on the OS side. Since you seem to be playing a lot of games, your battery running out quicker than usual seems normal to me, but give Paranoid Android a try, it's better than MIUI roms imo (I've got a k20 pro on Quartz 3 as well).
Hmm, I see. No, I don't play games anymore.
If you see my post above, I said that I've quit all the games I've been playing in the past.
I'm just using normal and social media apps like Facebook, Instagram etc.
Guess I'll give that a try. Did you change the kernel to a custom one or something? Also, what firmware did you flash before installing Quartz?
Or did you just flash a fastboot official ROM then wipe data + cache, and installed Quartz?

I am in your situation, have you found a ROM with low consumption?
i think i will install:
- Evolution X
- Rev 0S Miui
- Paranoid
- Pixel Experience
I'm just looking for low battery consumption and having Gcam.
I have literally tried countless things for my phone and I'm honestly left without options anymore. Even though i love MI 6, this battery issue has led me to think about buying another phone. Charging your phone 2 times a day has destroyed the purpose of a "mobile phone".
I've tried Android paranoid, epic rom, havoc os, pixel experience etc, yet no rom left me satisfied as far as the battery is concerned.

I have again obtained a better battery result with the original ROM, changing it for a NOHON. But I think that the latest version of original ROM has excessive drainage. I think a Nohon + custom Rom battery can solve our problem. Have you changed the battery for a Nohon?
Of all those ROMS you tried, did any give you better results?

I'm pretty sure the results were almost identical with all roms I've tried, sadly.
I've changed my battery like a month ago with an original one, not NOHON, so it's practically brand new. Yet the battery still drains like mad even with the screen closed. It's just unbelievable. I really have no clue as to what to do anymore.

Xiaomi does not have original batteries for sale, they are all fake. Fortunately with this brand of battery I can give this mi6 more life. I in your case would try this brand.
I edit:
From this moment on I will test 1 or 2 days each ROM that I have mentioned above.
Yeah, i see. Then i don't know what battery i have because i had a technician change it in a shop around my area. Haha.
Then I'll be waiting for news from you. I will also try some other things i guess. It can't stay like this anymore, definitely.

If you wanna use Miui, install Xiaomi Eu Miui 11 stable for mi6. It has the best battery life I've seen on mi6.
Else if you wanna use AOSP/CAF, just wait for Paranoid Android Quartz 4. It's the best daily driver for mi6 right now.
I'm using Xiaomi Eu miui 11 stable right now and I'm so happy with it.

i seem to face bounce jitter on all roms while scrolling especially in the browser. in simple terms the bounce happens because the screen skips/jumps a few frames. is this an issue on arrow too? happens mostly in chrome. btw does this have dynamic refresh rate and how's battery life , sound whats your camera setup like... describe more ''' <

How did you hardbrick it, did you literally smash it with a brick afaik these phones are 99% unhardbrickable
That's what i like to know as well.
I've flashed roms for about ten years or so and i never hard bricked a device.
And i can count the soft bricks i had on one hand.
I will also settle in a MIUI modded Rom. Because we hate Miui but our phones needed at least to work as intended, I know with a pair of bugs but at least we don't have empty pockets. I care about battery and SOT, I mean what I look for in a ROM. And with this one is what I got.

i have a oneplus 3t bought it new when it first came out, still run perfectly fine never opened, i have done all kind of experiments with it finally flashed PE about a year ago, i have all my authentication apps for work and personal accounts on it + banking apps and so on, flashing ROMs do not affect and longevity of a phone.
Arrow and Syberia are the best two roms right now. Syberia has more options than Arrow but both are stable and I haven't had any random reboots or glitches. The one plus side to Syberia is the ringtones actually play through both speakers instead of just the bottom one. It's the only custom rom with that feature which means they actually took the time to get that working and that's a good sign to me. I also like having Face unlock and any rom that doesn't have it I stay away from. Also basic things like hiding the battery icon and just showing the percentage and customizing the quick settings columns and rows are options I think all custom roms should have.
