Worse batterylife with OOS 3.5.4 - OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers

Hey guys, is anyone also facing worse battery life in the newest version? OOS 3.5.3 to 3.5.4

I noticed the drop too....but with dash charge I don't care too much

just read..
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=70143031&postcount=67

I'm trying to test if using the 3.5.3 modem radio helps even a little. It does not seem to do very much.. The battery still seems to drain faster then on 3.5.3. So i am contemplating on downgrading it aswell..

Maybe I will try to downgrade. Seems to be the only possibility at the moment.

no change for me in battery life.
still 8h sot daily.
fix your setup.

Same problem here with 3.5.4.
Especially phone calls use a lot of battery power.
Is it possible to downgrade to 3.5.3 without an unlocked bootloader?

I don't know, I just downgraded, but you can easily relock bootloader after flashing. Idk the exact commands. As always Google is your friend.

NOTE: This should only be used if running stock, bootloader locked and unrooted. Haven't tested this downgrade procedure on any other configuration.

Yes it is definitely possible. I just did it because I noticed the battery drain. The process couldn't be easier. Follow these steps.
1. Download the 3.5.3 OTA Full Zip from here: https://s3.amazonaws.com/oxygenos.o...8_OTA_027_all_1611222319_884473ff95304c30.zip
2. Connect your phone to your computer via original usb cable.
3. In your phone's notification shade, press on the "USB for charging" notification and select MTP file share for Windows and Mac.
4. Open the phone on your computer's file explorer. (You should see your storage contents and folders on your phone)
5. Copy the previously downloaded OTA into the root directory of your phone. (Don't navigate into any of the phones sub-folders just stay in the root directory)
6. Go to your settings menu on your phone and scroll all the way down to "System Updates" and enter into that menu.
7. Hit the gear icon in the Upper Right-hand corner and select "Local Upgrade"
8. It should list the OTA that you put in the root folder. Click on it and confirm "Upgrade Now" (The upgrade dialog box also indicates that this method does not affect your data so you should be good to proceed and keep you existing data)
9. It should begin the update process, reboot the phone and complete the "Upgrade" (Really a "Downgrade")
10. Once rebooted go into your Settings on your phone and confirm that it downgraded to 3.5.3. in the "About Device" section of the menu.
11. Hit the Thanks if this helped.
NOTE: You will probably see a notification in your settings menu and also your notification shade advising you of an update being available. This will be the 3.5.4 OTA again so don't choose to update to that until they have released a better fix for the battery drain issue.

Thanks a lot!
Does this keep all my data?

I don't think it touches your /data/ folder so you should be good. Actually I just confirmed that during the process when you click on the OTA it says that it does not affect your data. Cheers

I noticed the battery drain too, so I downgraded to OS 3.5.3.

Yesterday I got reboot while charging ..
and it has Bluetooth connection drops. (regression to 3.5.3)
Gps need some more filtering... Loosing sightings in Pogo becouse of gps drift spikes..
3.5.4 is a mess.

My phone feels hotter when gaming with 3.5.4
Higher temperature = Higher energy consumption.
For me, SOT is worse with 3.5.4.

I switched back to 3.5.3 by downloading the full OTA ZIP and placing it in the root directory, then select it as a local system upgrade.

New upgrade Android 5.1.1 for P8

For those using beta B191 you can upgrade to B350. This is an excellent version, simply the best existing ROM today for our P8.
Remember: You have to be in B191 to upgrade.
Download is here: https://mega.nz/#F!bwQgUCAL!sYcyIO20Lmnv4bxnGX-5lA
Create a /dload folder on your microSD and copy UPDATE.ZIP (do not unzip it) into this folder and apply upgrade localy from "Settings" "Updates"
NFC bug existing in B191 is over. All bugs I had found in B191 are also gone. Battery is also better. I believe this will be the first official 5.1.1 version released first to betatesters.
I'm using it since November 13th and it's just fantastic. Enjoy it.
PS: TouchPlus is not available in this version.
This is interestng, can you provide pictures of your battery stats?

The graphics provided by my phone can help me but not others because everybody uses their P8s different.
I get a bit more than two days with 5 hours 20 minutes screen but all depends how you have configured your phone and what applications you use.
What I can tell you for sure, battery drain is better controlled than with B191 which was good already.

Nope, you must go first to B170 (full ROM) and the B191 and B350 (both partial OTA updates). Here you have all what you need:
B170: http://download-c.huawei.com/download/downloadCenter?downloadId=49884&version=118243&siteCode=hu
B191: http://dl.free.fr/vYjCHxg8K
B350: https://mega.nz/#F!bwQgUCAL!sYcyIO20Lmnv4bxnGX-5lA
As usual, you create a /dload folder in your microSD card and you put inside UPDATE.APP (B170) and UPDATE.ZIP (B191 & B350) uncompressed (zip file) and you do a local update from "Settings"
P8 gra-ul00
Is this ROM compatible with GRA-UL00 version ?

Thanks man. I downgraded to B170 and Updated to B191 then , Updated to B350 WORKS like a charm. Thanks again
i have a problem! at first I was on b120 from Vodafone I decided to install b170, I installed b170 and after that I installed the 18kb file from the CUSTOM folder. finally I reinstalled b170 and everything was working fine and without any error. But I am not able to install b191 it always gives me an error at 3% I decided to install b200 and everything is working properly. But I´m very interested in Lollipop 5.1.1 although i can´t install it!! do you know what could be the problem! thanks!!!
pd: I also tried to downgrade from b200 to b170 and i tried again... but nothing.. and I installed the 18kb file on b200 too.

Questions:
1. Did you unzip UPDATE.ZIP? You should NOT unzip UPDATE.ZIP
2. How do you install B191? You should do it locally, from Android "Settings" menu. Not using the three buttons because it's a partial update.
To go back from B200 to B170 you have to do it using the three buttons method (*), not locally.
Everything will be fine if you follow these instructions?
(*) Three buttons method (Force upgrade/downgrade)
Step 1. Format the Micro SD card (This operation is optional).
Step 2. Copy the Software: main package to a directory named dload.
Step 3. Copy the entire dload folder (with UPDATE.APP in it) to the root directory of the Micro SD card.
Step 4. Make sure your handset is power off. Insert the Micro SD card into the handset. Press the VOLUME UP and VOLUME DOWN key, and then press the POWER key to power on the phone and enter the Software Upgrade Mode.
Step 5. When the progress bar stop, the phone will restart automatically.

What he means is - in 5.0 roms there is a Mobile Standby/Mobile Radio On bug which is a big battery drainer...

Besides, I don't understand well your request. If that happens with all ROMs, that shouldn't be a reason for not upgrading to B350. In the worst case, it will be the same than other ROMs, won't be?
this is the bug, it's prezent in b200 and all others roms till now
i don't have time to update, i'll wait for o stable version but was just curios if this bug is still prezent thanks

Verizon Galaxy S8 Android Oreo

Hey guys! I just got a Verizon S8 to check out and would like to try out Oreo on it. I noticed the official OTA leaked and is listed here: https://lifehacker.com/how-to-get-the-galaxy-s8-android-8-0-oreo-update-ahead-1821878689
If I install the build in that article, would I still get OTA updates over the air and not have to sideload everything? Also, I'm not sure if I'll be returning the device or not so would I be able to restore to stock software at some point? Thanks in advance!
P.S. If you've used Oreo on the S8, how's your battery life?
CRA1 is awesome battery life from what I have seen every build that comes out requires us to go back to official before installing the next Oreo build. I would think when official comes out you will need to flash back... Nothing like last year's beta where we could update incrementally

Really? I'm flashing back to 7.0 because battery life has been worse for me. I even deleted cached partition.
Did a full factory wipe after install and battery has been great.

Can this resolve the fingerprint problem? My verizon S8 fingerprint sensor didn’t working, i can’t add any finger and it always show an error message “sorry bla bla bla”
I still on BQL1 and I tried to factory reset several times but it still didn’t work ;(
Amazing battery life for me,pretty impressive!
UPDATE: Installed Oreo on my device yesterday and am noticing it feels snappier, more responsive. There's subtle changes to the way things work that makes Oreo definitely worth it on the S8. Have yet to test battery life but I'll let you guys know how it goes later today.
Does it still ask for consent when you switch on location or switch off mobile data?
UPDATE 2: Battery life stinks on S8 with Oreo just like with Nougat. Not noticing nearly any difference so far and it's been a few days. Really unfortunate since I thought things would improve. Any tips for better battery life?

Hardware?
This could very well be the last beta/final release. Here is a link to go from BQL1 to CRAG without having to jump through the extra flash hoops of the initial CRAG post.

You need to downgrade to BQL1 with Odin. Right before it finishes hold volume up and Bixby button to where you enter straight to recovery. Once in recovery. Flash the update. Zip from the root of your SD card phone will reboot and you will be done

Update 535 C00 has been pushed officially

If your HiCare region is not set to China, set it to China, then search for an update either in HiCare or Settings -> Update. You will then be eligible for the push.
Haven't tried other Asian regions, but it wasn't pushing to my device with Europe set in HiCare.
Speed, battery life and network performance seem to be significantly improved.
Thank you,
works very well your tip.

I'd also like to know this.
Also, if the bootloader locks again when doing/flashing an update, can the same old unlock code be used or do I have to request a new code?

Hi Letschky! How are you?
I'm still using the Honor Note 8 and love the size.
I was on B538 happily but something happened. I had to relock and unlock the bootloader (To write a new recovery. Seems after a few years it relocks while still showing "unlocked" in fastboot. So weird.) and I didn't know it would factory reset the thing. Then I couldn't unlock the bootloader because Find My Phone got turned on somehow, and the thing was bootlooping. So frustrating.
Anyway. There doesn't seem to be a way to get back to B538 anymore. Hisuite Proxy doesn't work for me. Have you tried it? With official Hisuite you can go to B359 and B528 then B539. I couldn't root B539 so had to settle for B528.
Now I'm contemplating updating all the way to B555 or whatever the newest is, and try to extract the boot.img and patch it with magisk. The only problem is, how the hell do I get a hold of boot.img? It seems TWRP for Oreo broke after B53X somewhere. They must have switched to a different partition configuration.
Now I'm on B528 and battery life isn't great but I did get root and xposed to work.
I can't figure out where official Hisuite is downloading the firmware update. Do you know? It's not in /data/media/0/HwOUC/ which some people report.
Cheers! /Mike

You sir are a life saver! Is this on 555?
I would like to share something I found with you, if I get it to work on 555. On B538 I used a custom stock rom wanmei, and in it there's a config app called Mobile. There are TONS of features but for me only ONE feature that's been really freaking useful to me. It's to disable the temp sensor. It enables full speed charging. Stock charging often slows down to 1200mA but with this it blasts 2700mA until 80% (I use BatteryChargeLimit anyway to stop at 80-85%). I've been charging like this for years and no battery degradation. That's why I want to stay on B528 or B538 where this app works. I want to try it on B555 too.
Also. I have found that the default CPU governor isn't "interactive" on the slower cores. Only on the faster ones. Setting this to "interactive" gives a nice battery and speed boost compared to performance/conservative/ondemand. This app Mobile can set the governnor too. Mobile requests root access upon first launch. I hope it works on 555 too, after I extract it from the system/app on my B528. I remember after B538 it became a PAID app. You had to pay the developer like 20 usd to activate it. Sneaky. Anyway, I have the free one I can share with you.
Here they are if you're interested.
These are all the custom folders I could find in system/app. The app itself is only the Hwsystemmobile folder but I don't know if it has dependencies in the other ones.
Been using this for years. Took me a long time to translate. The setting I love is at the bottom of the screenshot. ”核心温控“ turn that on. From the main menu you first need to enter the sub page ”其他功能“ (other functions).
In ”其他功能“ you can also set the cpu governor etc.
Yes for 555.
Have you a Link or can upload the wanmei rom?

It actually works to flash this over a stock B528 even though it's meant for B538. The system remains B528 but Mobile works normally without bugs. I've used it for a week now as a daily driver.
It's possible to revert to B528 using official Hisuite. Gotta go to B359 first.
Let me know if you manage to get anything to work. I used to get 8h screen on time on B538. I miss that. With B528 I seem to get like 5h. Terrible.
How's 555?
Other features Mobile has are things like enabling VoLTE, enabling RAM compression, gaming modes, hiding status/nav bars, disabling automatic updates, etc.
I do seem to have more free RAM on B528. I never saw 2.4GB free on B538 but on B528 I did. I'd still take the better battery if I had to choose one.
ok thank you, (Downloading)which Twrp to use to install this Rom?The is Multilanguage?
555 is not bad,i use it since the Update..4,5 Hours SOT in almost three days of use
Ok i flash directly via DLOAD Method from 555 to 528.The next Update is 539 and not 538.You say it works on 528?Works this rom on 539?

Hi! I live in China so sorry for the late reply.
You flash that wanmei firmware in fastboot. There's a bat file (to run the bat you need to set windows language settings "Non-unicode" programs default language = Chinese simplified). Yeah it works on B528. I don't know how but it works. I'm using it since a few days.
In B539 if you try to flash it fails when flashing system.img. I suspect the names of the partitions changed around B539. Boot.img is flashed to "ramdisk" now, not boot. This is also why twrp doesn't work right I think.
Are you using a working twrp in 555? I tried flashing one oreo twrp.img dated July 2018 (the newest I could find) and it can't get write access. The log is just full of errors.
4.5h SOT on 555 oh nooo. I'll still try it and see what I get. If this is really the case i'll pay a chinese shop to get me back to B538. They said they can.
How about available RAM? After a reboot, can you see more than 2.0GB free in Recent Apps?

V12.0.2.0.QFAEUXM Beta or Stable?

Hi all, I see there is an update listed on this page link V12.0.2.0.QFAEUXM.
Can someone confirm if this has been released as stable already? And if you received it, how is this an improvement over V12.0.1? I am holding on to V11 as I heard V12s initial release was not that well polished and strains the battery.
Thanks!
it's only security update for August

- I have received this OTA update and it's stable.
- Everything work's more or less stable, at least I didn't find any issue until now.
- What I have noticed is that Weather app is replaced with G version in his name and now one can update this app manually without previous notorious "authorisation" issue.
- Mi Global Browser is still there and still can't be uninstalled ( Failed [-1000] error in adb shell during uninstall).
- In Indian Forbes site I have seen that they will release update which will allow uninstalling MiBrowser and few other apps because Indian government have banned all of these apps.
- Battery life is a little better from previous ROM.
- There is no more stuttering in Chrome browser.
- That's my humble experience so far.
Thanks @Jehonan I think I may give it a shot then.
Cannot flash the update
I am on miui_CEPHEUSEEAGlobal_V12.0.1.0.QFAEUXM.
I did not get the OTA yet and my battery life is very poor so I am eager to upgrade, I tried to update manually from the updater to either files:
- miui_CEPHEUSEEAGlobal_V12.0.2.0.QFAEUXM
- miui-blockota-cepheus_eea_global-V12.0.1.0.QFAEUXM-V12.0.2.0.QFAEUXM
but I always get the "Sorry, flash to this stable version is not allowed".
Any ideas what is the problem?

I am on miui_CEPHEUSEEAGlobal_V12.0.1.0.QFAEUXM.
I did not get the OTA yet and my battery life is very poor so I am eager to upgrade, I tried to update manually from the updater to either files:
- miui_CEPHEUSEEAGlobal_V12.0.2.0.QFAEUXM
- miui-blockota-cepheus_eea_global-V12.0.1.0.QFAEUXM-V12.0.2.0.QFAEUXM
but I always get the "Sorry, flash to this stable version is not allowed".
Any ideas what is the problem?

Which update procedure did You follow?
Did You make folder on root of the internal drive, copied appropriate downloaded ROM inside this folder and start upgrade from there?
I went to the Rom version in settings. Cliqued on the 3 dots. Select rom to install. Then tried to import the files from download, root, dowloaded_roms folders. Same result: "flash to this stable version is not allowed".
With the same procedure I am able te reflash miui_CEPHEUSEEAGlobal_V12.0.1.0.QFAEUXM as much as I want. But no way to upgrade.
I also tried from recovery. But there is no option to flash update.zip.

Did You tried with OTA version of this update?
Same procedure, in root of the drive in downloaded_rom folder copy OTA update and start update from there.
Here is a link to ROM's.
P.S.
I believe that You must first go with OTA version of the firmware because of the downloaded ROM decrypting procedure. After that You can go with recovery type of ROM (full ROM upgrade).
Yes, I tried the update file as well.
Both files give the same error ("Sorry, flash to this stable version is not allowed"):
- miui_CEPHEUSEEAGlobal_V12.0.2.0.QFAEUXM_44dcb66933_10.0.zip
- miui-blockota-cepheus_eea_global-V12.0.1.0.QFAEUXM-V12.0.2.0.QFAEUXM-789914bb83-10.0.zip
I am able to flash V12.0.1 from the same site so I am sure to be on the right ROM:
- miui_CEPHEUSEEAGlobal_V12.0.1.0.QFAEUXM_4d28c84f58_10.0
Something else is preventing the upgrade.
Well, I found out that I needed to change the region settings from France to Belgium... now it updates.
How stupid!
Hi all, I'm having a strange behaviour after the update: the quick charge ( using a wireless charger ) isn't working anymore.
Does anyone have the same issue?

Nope!
Mine is working as it should, without any issue what so ever.
Strange!
Did You check wireless charger itself?!

Excellent!
I'm glad it worked for You!
Good luck in the future!

There is nothing stupid about this so don't blame yourself!
I would rather call this Xiaomi's stupidity and theirs mumbo jumbo with all of these "special" update procedures !
What is yhe exact solution to this problem
I already tried to change my region it didn't work for me im using redmi note 8 pro Indonesia rom

Question Battery usage percent in thousands, not tens

I have misplaced the solution for this problem. I am on A13 crDroid 9.3 so no ability to dump Dalvik or cache in the limited recovery. Here is a screenshot. (Plus, Mobile Network is almost always the top app despite not using mobile data)
It's exactly the same for me. I am also with crdroid 9.3.
The excessive battery consumption problem happens because for some strange reason there is a wakelock related to the mobile data network, which causes the phone not to go into deepsleep when it is idle. In fact to me it literally marks 0% deepsleep. And perfectly in one night I can go 30% of the battery without doing absolutely nothing.

Oddly, I always (and I mean always) see Mobile Network on A13 (or Cell Standby on A12) as the top battery app, and no suggestions worked for me. Saw in multiple custom ROMs, but not everyone sees it. I do not even use mobile data, only wifi. This "thousands" bug is sometimes part of it. Even putting the phone in airplane mode for a day does not change the battery stats at all for me.
I already found out what is the wakelock that causes this thanks to betterbatterystats. And the culprit seems to be IPA_WS or any other of the IPA family. These wakelocks indeed seem to be related to the mobile data network.
I just flashed crdroid build 9.5 on my phone. Despite being a nightly (beta) version, it fixes many bugs present in crdroid 9.3.
According to the developer the next stable version will be released soon. But in the meantime, I'm going to try a few days the 9.5 to see how it goes. And so check if they have corrected the failure of battery consumption.
In fact I have already checked that they have fixed some small bugs that were present in version 9.3. So so far so good.
UPDATE: the latest MIUI firmware update seems to have helped me. I was on the .08, and this stable is .12. My battery percents are back in the tens. Good, since there is no known optional kernel yet.

Is there a way to flash just the kernel from the latest firmware? I don't want to reinstall everything again..

That is firmware, not kernel. There are no kernel install options for spes yet. It even says "firmware" in the links.
I see the official crDroid site (https://crdroid.net/spes/9) now links to the A13 V14, which has updated in the last few days from the A12 V13 version. I'll install it myself.
My deep sleep has returned to the 90's again.
Oh lol, I misread your question.... but why you need to install everything again if You install the firmware only? the firmware is just the firmware and has nothing to do with data.. or do I miss something here?

I just flashed the firmware. You thought I rebuilt everything else from scratch too?
I am installing the A13 firmware that just came out on the 6th of June now.
Hm, I still dont get you.
Why You need/ask for seperate kernel to flash when there is the firmware, which doesnt change any of your userdata?

Ye, thats what I linked and installing that firmware wont mess with Your userdata. So there is no need to reinstall any apps or whatever. Its the just the firmware (contains drivers and boot stuff) and not the whole rom image.

RN10P has kernel downloads available to fix battery issues, etc like this, in ADDITION to firmware provided by MIUI. There are no kernels for the RN11 as of today. The RN11 firmware from MIUI just updated to A13 as of June 6, but had only the A12 version from April of this year before that on their "firmware" download link. Both files are just 1 zip files that get installed via recovery. I hope that clears it up.
Ignore any suggestions about removing/reinstalling anything else; I never asked about any of that.
(added P to RN10 to correct error and not confuse with any RN10 users)

So I can flash this, and I won't lose any data? For the naming of the firmware, I thought it was just a word for "official rom"

Just firmware. Firmware size is extremely small, while ROM size is extremely large. ROM and firmware are 2 different things. You could say the ROM is the house and the firmware is the land, but post-updatable land. No loss of data, except when something borks and the firmware has issues within it, causing you phone headaches.

Thanks I just flashed it. But I still see the battery in thousands. How can I check the firmware version on phone?
BTW where can I download the nightly?
On https://crdroid.net/spes/9 I don't see anything besides the April b uild

Really? Hunh. Mine popped back to normal, but I did fully charge it and reboot it too. The deep sleep number (look under About Phone) jumped back into the upper 90's as well (good), and it had been stuck at 0.
I use Device Info HW which SHOULD (but does not even with root enabled on it!) show it on the 3rd tab, System, for the value of Description, but mine keeps showing just a dash! You'll have to locate an app that reveals the installed firmware.
Are you in India?

I just checked on about phone, and deep sleep still at 0%.
I also fully charged it, and rebooted and wiped battery usage data, but still shows thousands.
I also get a dash in that app.
No, I'm not from India.

Look at the firmware link on crDroid again and try the A13 MIUI V14 firmware released on June 6. I installed it via adb sideload since my phone temporarily won't read my external SD card. I do not recall anything else to try. Good luck.

I flashed again via adb sideload, but still nothing. I even updated to the latest crdroid 9.5 build and still nothing

Then you are not speaking about the RN11 spes. There is no 9.5 update for this phone. This forum is for RN11 spes. Look at Device Info HW again and find out what phone you are actually using.
