Battery life with MIUI 9... - Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers

Hey there.
Since I've upgraded myself and my redmi note 4x/snapdragon to MIUI 9 I'm experiencing strange battery life. I can't get more than 3 to 4 hours on SOT. It was the same with MIUI 8.5.
Is this normal because I've red about 7+ SOT on this phone?
Im attaching two screenshots.
btw I'm on battery for 2 days or so if that matters. Many phone calls and almost no screen usage.

Yeah. And also Android Oreo Roms are stable enough already.
If you want more customizations and stable Rom then flash RR or viperOS, PA etc.. Otherwise LineageOS, slim etc..

OK. Currently I'm on LineageOS 15 and I've got 5hrs SOT with 40% batt left.

Here is mine on LinageOS 15
everything stock and for me great battery life.
Probably in this 30 percent left i will get 3 hours sot more

Well that's great I get around 5 SOT with heavy usage and my battery lasts 2 full days. My best is 4 SOT 4 days but I guess idle uses alot..

Xiaomi.eu 9.0.4.0
Stormguard 2.9

What about 5 hours SOT, 4 hours talk time and 3 days uptime with AOSP extended and stormguard. Is it normal? I talk alot

Looking for a nice rom

I've been trying a few rows but there are so many that I don't even know where to choose.
I'd like a stable Rom with good battery, preferably on Nougat, but can also be marshmallow.

Battery life = FrancoKernel
Performance = Stormguard Kernel.
However...
Battery Life is inversely proportional to Performance.

Go ahead.

Also if you feel the device is laggy, turn down the animations to 0.5x

Rr, aoscp, aex and liquid remix are definitely worth trying.
Kep in mind that rr, aex and liquid remix have same features tho but rr is most stable. And aoscp really stands out of crowd with its own minimalist features.:good::highfive:

So i am using rr with oreo now...but very disappointed with the performance...and battery backup

Asking about most stable rooted ROM for RN4 MTK

Hi, asking about most stable rooted ROM for daily use for my RN4 MTK!
Thx in advance
I rooted my phone in order to try some customs roms...
Ended up with messed modems,region and whole bunch of sh*t.
At the end,i instaled Global Stable Rom MIUI 8.2.1.0 as this one has the best battery life for me (7-8 hours of SOT) and evrything else is really good for me...
Latest MIUI9 (9.5.1.0) is ok with battery life as well but MIUI8 is better for me and my use...
Hope this could help you ☺

Its mine on miui pro 9.5.2.0
This is my SOT with aosp on redmi note 4 mtk
But if u tell me that the miui 8.2.1.0 can do 7/8 of SOT i install that
Pls tell me if this news is true
Both screenshots are from MIUI 8.2.1.0 for Note 4 MTK...
Second one is my personal best from few months ago where i did 6.5h SOT and still 18% of battery...
No additional charging in between...i take it out in the morning from the charger when i go to work and plug it in charger in the night when i go to sleep...
If the day is "weak" sometimes when I go to sleep i still have 60% of battery so in that case, I don't plug it in for charging...

Its good bro. Mine aroound 4hours sot
20% down and 100 minues of SOT...by constant use it should be around 500 minutes which is roughly 8h of SOT...
My phone is around 18 months old,so battery is not brand new [emoji4]

usually using more mobile networks how many hours of active screen can you do?
I tested a lot of ROMs: the 'original' from en.miui.com, Xiaomi.eu, AOSP, Epic, Multirom, MiuiPro... in my tests the more Stable was Xiaomi.eu based on a Stable ROM, it's the 'original' with some tweaks to improve the system at all (including performace, battery and remove a lot of chinese things). The better in battery use was AOSP, but some apps doesn't work (BW Ruler for example) and is based in a old release, so I think was almost unsecure to use if you are a heavy user like me.

Not sure because 9-10h a day i spend at the office where i have wifi... recently we built a completely new building and mobile network reception inside the building is very low (some of the time i'm completely without any signal at all)... that's the main reason of 70%-30% ratio...this 30% is when i'm out of office or home...i use both sim slots (one for private and one for business number) so all emails are going through this phone...including viber,whatsapp,facebook,Instagram, LinkedIn,gMail etc...

I have tried a lot of different ones as well... even mesed up something (mostlikely modems) so sim2 was not functioning at all for some time but at the end, original global stable suits best for me.
And i prefer MIUI8 over MIUI9 [emoji4]

Don't have much time to try out both
Please give suggestions [emoji120][emoji120]

DotOS. Tried 20 or more custom ROMs. DotOS is more reliable at all times.
