What sucks the Battery? Pls Pls Pls Comment??? - Xiaomi Mi 5 Questions & Answers

The below stats represents 82% drain within 16 hours while fully standby and with agressive doze..
it is obvious the drain is over 5% per hour..
İt is Lineage OS now but, this situ is, with many stock and custom roms, do not differ much..
Please comment what sucks my battery so much?
Thanks thanks in advance..

Check in stock battery app mobile signal, constantly switching or force specifying network type with low signal will drain battery a lot.

I live in downtown. İt is same with two different GSM operators.
2G or 3G I prefer...
Even it is same airplane mode on...

LineageOS 14.1 here, I also noticed an incredible drain in flight mode, almost 3% each hour.

if ur phone heating thats cpu load always on max. try using kernel adiutor then choose kernel, hit cpu. then set max cpu load to under ur cpu max load

Ths for your comment.
Thou I am familiar with Kernel Adiutor some but, I did not understand what I sould do. I think you suggest me to limit max CPU load less than exists.. Correct? Is it a kind of undercloaking?
My battery never gets hot..

You can set a maximal frequency for the cpu, you can also untick some cores if you want. You can change the cpu hotplug ( search cpu hotplug Android on the Internet ).

OK so if with all of this it's doesn't work there is another solution, install and do a calibration with an battery app calibration (there is one on XDA).
And if calibration doesn't work maybe you can buy a new battery?

I already started to use a new battery but result is the same.
I also calıbrated the battery but better to recalibrate with the one you suggest.
Thou I am beginnig to search but could you kindly give its link to me if you meet again.
Ths a lot..

If you already try to calibrate your battery, doing it with another app will be the same thing...
Maybe try the method 4 and 6, it seems to be the most effective methodes...

im not one to say I have used all 3, ive only used CM7. it was good. actually even MIUI is good but u gotta know how to find your wakelocks with betterbatterystats. that way you can optimize battery life regardless of whatever rom you're on.
I could go 1-2 days on my MIUI currently FR rom, moderate usage, all my syncs are off, i manually refresh for notifications.

What do you mean "but u gotta know how to find your wakelocks with better batterystats" ? I usually dont have anything running in the background...
I have used CM 7, all MIUI, Lewa, and Mokee, and Ice BlacK too
In my view
1. CM7 have better battery life (but as I use to play 3 D games I won't prefer)
2. Second is Galnet MIUI, built by elol, decent battery life with good performance.
3. Third is Mokee, It is the best ROM for gamer and for others too who don't use to play game. It almost serve me for whole day with games, music and all mail, FB, Linkedin sync on for 24 hrs.
For me best choice is "Bumblebee" it's really a stable ROM and give's really great battery life, Best in which i have used.
In term's of Gaming this ROM is really great, it give's games extra smoothness to Game's by increasing FPS with help of it's new GPU derive.
This all make this ROM as my daily use ROM.

google xda betterbatterystats. download the app and follow the thread, those are uber battery sensitive people in the community.
so you manually sync all your apps as well? even calendar? and leave gtalk signed out?
wakelocks are what keeps the phone away from entering deep sleep. from the betterbatterystats app, if u see ur device entering 96% and above Deep Sleep after a night's full charge and allowed to idle, then good job, no matter what rom ur running u should be doing it right.
wakelocks are what cause a battery drain even when your phone is off idle while u sleep. it isnt only about background apps.
Yes,,I was use betterbatterystats,,I have managed all wakelocks and partial too,,it's give me battery life more time
But battery use info from setting doesn't change,,still give me "Android System" for highest % deal,,

flash stock rom and see if the problem persists. If it does return your phone and get a new one. You've got no other go!!!

post your dump here. and also at the BBS thread where u got the app.
so unless you are getting 96% and above deep sleep, id say you have not completely managed your wakelocks yet. also what are your governor and i/o scheduler settings? OC'ed at? do you have a screen off profile to lower clock speed when screen off?
battery use info may show that, but most important is u charge your phone to full, let it discharge while u sleep and wake up next day, OBTAIN 96% DEEP SLEEP OR HIGHER. figure out what are the wakelocks in BBS. if BBS is managed correctly, even if your android system is using highest %, no big deal, more importantly your battery isn't draining like mad.

i dont think so but anyway, i am now using Apocalypse ROM by itasoulas
Thanks to everyone who has contributed to this thread. I've manage to figure out (not really figure, more like a hunch/guess) what went wrong. its the kernel.
now im using Apocalypse ROM [Firekernel OC] by itasoulas
Im really sorry but I dont understand any of the tech stuff posted here, but what I do know is that my 1 yr old battery on my Ace is like worth 3 minutes of calls now (only)!!!
Pls help. Should I get a new battery instead?
Thanks!

Obviously, yes!
~~~when I say,'HENSHIN',u better run~~~
Hey,Check how much you have clocked your phone at and the governer
Settings>CyanogenModSettings>Performance(press OK for the warning)>CPU Settings;If the governor is ONDEMAND, change it to Smartassv2 and increase Min value to 245. I use Apocalypse and my battery life is awesome(check the attachments).
Second lower your screen brightness simple yet effective. also increase the Max value in the CPU settings to 902 for zero lag.Also set the network to only 2G if you dont want your 3G on all the time.This saves lot of battery life too.
Press Thanks If I helped

DCTopTeam - u can check the physical battery condition whether is bloated (feels expanded), this is an indicator that the battery is about to die
Flash a kernel, i recommend The ace kernel beta 4, it is discontinued, but has no bugs, a long battery life included

902 seems high... that might drain the battery faster. i don't go higher than 825.

Battery problems

Hi guys,
I haven't noticed it before, but my SGS has very high battery drain when wifi hotspot is on. Without doing anything on the phone, it went from 80% to 15% in less than an hour. Is it normally like that? This was my first time using the hotspot, so I was quite shocked.
I'm on CM 10.1 NIGHTLY with Semaphore 2.9.13 and 114% live OC, but max CPU freq is set to 960 MHz.
OC can drain battery... try changing modem...kernel
Or simply battery calibration

Or maybe a busted battery. Changing the battery to a new one will also solve the problem.
Thanks for the answers, calibrated the battery and waiting for an improvement. If it won't show, well, there comes the new one

Any tweak that balances out active CPU cores?

Is it anyone that can share and care with me some kind of modifying / tweaks that shuts down how many CPU cores that is active at the same moment? My problem is that battery life is suffering thanks to the CPU is working at an high level even when using simple tasks like browsing the web thru the built in web browser.
Help me please..

Download system tuner or get this app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.teamkang.fauxclock
And then just look at your cores. 97% of the time there is just 1 core working (on my phone).
Faux's app is about the same as CPU Spy, but Faux123 Kernel Enhancement Pro can also tell/show you the amount of time that all 4 cores were being used. Which is really barely never. If it's different in your case then you could do some tweaks, but I really doubt that it will be different then my phone. In the end it also depends what you use your phone for of course.

If 1 one core is used - why is my battery draining like crazy? I am greenifying every known battery eating app that is installed on my phone but even then, I got bad battery life on my Xperia Z it is two days old though..

Yeah well... if anything... The least you should worry about are you cores.
Have you installed BBS/CPU Spy to see if your phone is going into sleep mode correctly?

My phone enter Deep sleep pretty quickly so it is nothing wrong with Deep sleep and sleep mode.
Maybe undervolting of stock kernel frequencies can help me with the fast battery drainage? I mean, my battery life is good but undervolting can make it better?
Turn off gps,google now,every vibration and unnecesary keyboard,dial sound.
The battery life will be better.

I guess UV helps to improve the battery life, but I don't know how much. The great thing of UV is that the phone also doesn't become too hot.

[Q] Min CPU freq setting for low battery consumption?

Hi!
I've found this thread which explains in detail all Governor/Schedulers characteristics and much more.
Even if the thread is SGS2 based, there is one thing that catched my attention.
It is written that setting the min CPU frequency @ 100 Mhz actually takes more power during phone standby then the 200 Mhz setting because of cpu voltages...
Does anybody has similare experiences with the Galaxy S i9000?
Which is the recommendable min CPU freq for the lowest battery consumption during Standby?
Thank you!
it depend on devices n true voltage lacking when cpu standby, but its dualcore vs single core

Okay sorry for my stupid question ...
i have min cpu by 100mhz ...and for me it is okay...
Sure and if you have apps which let the cpu not going to standby , it doesn`t take effect ...
What min cpu do yu have? Only for information ...

mine dont lock mincpu, as i let da gov do it, mincpu goes to any value cpu needed.but literally 100 was default. but i use script tweak on init.d to shut all background app/lagfree/sdread ahead/ n auto taskmanager to manage free RAM. So feel free to use any combo u feel battery saving as i m waiting tony stark to create a nuclearbased battery for smartfone
n no kidding mate, discussion on saving battery already been solved as not recommended topic, so try to find any setting that pleases u.
or maybe u can try slimbase ROM

200MHz is the best minimum CPU frequency for both performance and battery consumption for most cases. Leave your minimum at 200MHz.

Sorry, i didn't want to press thanks ;PP
Let google be your friend. You will get great overviews. (There is as example a overview for governors - i thonk it was for SGS2 - but it is partly right on every phone)
i'm sorry i didnt remember the URL ;DD
