I got a xiaomi mi3 td a few weeks ago. Untill now its really awesome and in my opinion the worlds best phone ecspecially for this the price. But Im experiencing a really annoying issue. The battery drains much faster than it should (sometimes 800mW). It last only around 10 hours (at normal usage) other mi3's last around 2 days with same usage.
The screen is draining up to 70% of the battery even if its on low brightness!
After some time "googling" this issue, i found a thread where someone was experiencing the same issue with an s4, but nobody could help him...
i believe in you guys :laugh:
So pls help
bump

i update to v23 also INDIA but battery drains prob is there. maybe we should wait for latest update
I believe the Android 4.4.4 update(s) fix battery issues for those facing them.
Try Developer rom 4.4.4
I suggest you to try the latest 4.8.8 developer version.

You What is your screen on time? The battery can be drained within the hours you mentioned if you are using 3g and using phone heavily, I have got about 6.5hours screen on time on average with 3g
On another note Op has the TD version, which is the Chinese version, so be careful when selecting the Roms for flashing

Hello,
I bought mi 8 new a week ago I installed directly miui 10 stable EU
Bttery drain is very fast I can get maximum 3- 4 hour of screen on time, I already give 15 charge cycles
Is my unit battery broken or miui 10 stable eu to have battery drain? Didn't had time to try another version yet

Something wrong with you. Reinstall may help you. I got 6 hours approx. with Eu 10 stable.
its so early to Miui 10 for me. I get 8 hours everyday with 9.6.7 Global Stable.
Maybe I got a broken battery..
In my case . I can get like 14 hour or more SOT . With battery saving obviously . Use chrome youtube whatsapp and instagram . Some game too . But not too much .

Xiaomi EU 8.8.30 .
I just tested Mi 8 miui 10 10.0.5.0 vs Oneplus 5 8.1, same game, same britghness, only wireless and the game Pokemon GO, 100% to 0%
Mi8 using dual GPS of course and Oneplus with normal GPS.
Oneplus 5 with 1.4 years of use vs Brand New Mi 8 got it 1 week ago.
Oneplus 5 - 4hrs
Mi 8 - 4:15hrs
For a smartphone new against one with more than 1 year of intense use, the battery of Oneplus 5 is holding like new
I just played pokemon go without stopping, i stopped every other app in background on Mi8 and Oneplus 5.
Hope xiaomi release an update to fix the battery drain!

Hi, maybe I've youre same problem. After upgrading to miui 10 my battery drains so fast. And also we cannot go back because to the anti rollback protection. I'm furious. Today I'll do a factory reset and I hope it will be useful. This anti rollback is a f###ing joke

I live in hot city in india. I have been experiencing alot of heat lately in back where CPU is located. It's always 40c battery as well as CPU both stays on 40c. Please let me know if there is some tweak to reduce heat. I dont do much gaming. I use it for chatting and watching videos mostly surfing YT or surfing internet. it makes me paranoid whenever it gets heat up i m always forced to keep it aside till it gets cool down. I am requesting to any developers here to make a tweak or make a kernel for users like me as it will be soo helpful for many people who dont like to feel heat while surfing on net. Please do look into it.
Also do tell me if there is a good rom. I dont care about latest android version or latest security patch all i want is i should be able to chat or surf without feeling that heat in my hand because it just ruins everything for me.
I am using official LOS 15.1 and am satisfied with it from a heat perspective.
The only time I maybe encounter unusual heating is when the NSA is hacking my phone to spy on me. *joke* What I then usually do is just to shut down my phone and leave it off for a couple of minutes.
You should look to update your firmware to the latest available Global version.
It is otherwise a good idea to reinstall your phone. You never know if you picked up some malware through dodgy apps that is causing the problem or if some apps are just rubbish.
I Use Xiaomi EU
No issues of heating except if you Play games.

Use kernel adiutor to tweak settings. Or use a custom thermal mod
Hey. Peeps! Thanks for kind response. I read all your suggestions! I m using Lineage OS latest official build. I dont do gaming its battery efficient also it has quick charge support, on ampere app readings says 1800ma. I m thinking of using MIUI now, i have used EU rom and trust me Lineage OS is better in terms of battery backup. Crdroid, umm, thanks @mcjohn, i will try this.

I do not recommend CrDroid.
It's an unstable ROM.
Wait for an update.
Yesterday I installed "COSP".
I do not know how behave !?

I actually tried it.. Not bad , not good. Lineage OS is the best currently. I m thinking of trying out pixel experience rom, i have seen people claiming it has good battery backup.
Btw, dont ever use miui official rom. It sucks the battery so quickly. -_- I m currently on stable miui global rom and trust me it has worst battery backup.

I installed several ROMs.
Everywhere, I posted my opinion on settings or battery!
"Somebody" criticized me because I was too subjective !
Try some software, then stop at the one you like.

I used the MIUI ROM when I bought the phone until I unlocked the boot charger. . . Then I install another ROM every month.
Or, maybe 2-3 ROMs per week !
Look at my pictures and see how the battery is consumed, how the phone heats up, or the settings that are missing from the menu.
Hai,
Recently bought the Mi 11 ultra chinese version.
Now installed eu stable latest rom.
Everything was fine for like 5-6 days.
Then it started to get heated without any reasons. Sometimes it will be fine, sometime for the basic browsing & YouTube watching, cos heats up to 50-52 degree. Just the browsing also feels the heat.
Tried flashing the rom from the scratch again, tried the underclock module from xda, still the same. Normal cpu heat itself is 43 - 45 degree sometimes.
And in 8k video & pubg gaming sessions cause the cpu to reach 55+ degree.
Is it normal? During no hard use also feeling warm is normal in Mi 11 ultra?
Should I try for a service or replacement?

You made yourself a problem. The Chinese and European versions have different support for the radio bands, which may be related to the difference in hardware.

Nop. EU rom is completely based on the Chinese roms.
EU stable version is chinese stable modified. & eu weekly is chinese weekly rom.
Just more optimized, bloatware & Spyware free roms.

Just a suggestion, since it would seem that your issue started only recently after the rom update.
I was on 13.0.12 CN , then changed to 13.0.2.0 global . The phone seems to be running cooler , and doesn't get warm at all when on idle.

Sorry, I think I didn't explained it properly.
I bought the phone and same day flashed the EU rom. And it was working all fine in eu rom for like 5-6 days. Then the issue started. Now it's 15 days of using this device.
This is a Chinese version phone and was on global rom when I bought, so was already bootloader unlocked. I simply formated everything & flashed eu stable.
By the way.
Can you help me with the temperature you are seeing.
On normal use, did u ever faced warm screen & back?
What temperatures you are seeing in normal use & moderate use.
Ever faced phone heating in standby mode?

Hi there 10 pro users
I don't know if you all noticed but i started with oos 13 a couple weeks ago without root i had it on QHD 120hz it was pretty good to use battery latest very long lasting and always 8 hours sot so that was pretty good to have until i started to root it again wanted to check out somethings but then the horror started couldn't reach no more the 8 hours sot it was reduced to 4 hours even heavy drains sometimes drops in Hz to 1 found out that it is found in there kernel source too they are trying to prevent root or this device needs a hell of a kernel dev who can fix all this or enjoy the device how you like and how you want too use it. And to be honest my opinion don't root it you will have more fun with your device since this is dead in development
I have posted some pictures below the one with 8 hours sot was before root the rest of the pictures after root
Hi, but there is a difference...
Your screen time is not the same, so the comparison is not valid.
I'm rooted and have not noticed a drain on the battery... I have heavily debloated though.
My apps list in battery doesn't show anything anymore but this is one charge.
I didn't just leave it with the screen on either lol. But have been reading a lot on chrome.

Are you sure the one of 8 hours was the first time I had oos 13 installed even wiped it set it up with something's a few apps what ik using but after I wanted it too root found out that they want too prevent it so my CPU where locked and this only happens in oos 13 but in oos 12 I didn't had that much problems with root but still it's a heavy drainer device

Well you switched back so you know what I'm talking about but what did you debloated and what did you use to downgrade ?
But for now my battery is like this I have franco kernel manager running without root and setup with adb commands I have a drain right now of 0.90 but it doesn't seems to add up to my first 8 hours sot

It's subjective based on user, location, network, apps etc..
I've already advised in other threads what I've done in detail.
Rolling back AFAIK there is only one way and that's the rollback package found in the beta thread.
Debloat from the debloat thread.
I average 10 hours at least and I use my phone all day long 7am to midnight most days.

Same. I regularly only have to fully charge this device once a day. It'll last me easily from morning to night on a full charge with moderate use throughout the day. With added streaming / gaming on a lunch break, if I don't sometimes I can even get away with two work days (around 1.5 days) on a single charge.
The battery is definitely good, just need to use your system wisely, like with most tech. The fact that it charges to full in about 25 minutes is just gravy.

Yea mines about 2 days ish.. if I'm on citra or an emulator then sure it'll be a lot less but gaming on lunch will still see me through the day.
Charging is insane on this phone, not 100% if it's good for the battery or not.
Thermals for me were higher on oos13 hence why I switched back, I do prefer the look and feel of 13 but it annoyed me to have extra heat during gaming etc.
Haven't tested C.21 yet, but have heard good things.
Hi, I don't agree with the fact that root is draining battery. I am on oos13 since the first day of stable build and now on C21, rooted with xposed and 4 modules running and didn't noticied any différence with and without root. Maybe loosing a bit with xposed but I still managed to get 11h of sot (wifi and a lot of reading) and average 6h on mobile data. Also the phone is debloated.
@dladz i used to charge my phone with old 20w op3 block (no need of full speed, and trying to save battery life) but the few times I used the 80w I didnt noticied more heat on C21 than on oos12. But I don't use m'y phone while charging and always put it in airplane mode. If you want I can try some scénarios while charging and send you températures to compare

Just run a heavy emulator like Aetherx2 running lets say Tekken Tag Tournament..
I noticed C20 throttle but not A17.
I haven't noticed c,21 as I've never installed it... Fair bit of work to get back to how I like my phone.... Plus a few mods that don't work on 13 yet

Ok i will try it. By throtteling you are just looking if the phone start lagging or testing with an app like '' cpu throtteling test ''?
I know you were talking of c20, I was saying that just for you to have some data/feedback of c21 si you don't have to try it yourself, if I can help. But yes if some of your mods don't work on 13 I understand why you are staying with 12

Ah cheers man.. You'd don't have to do that, but I appreciate it..
Then again it'd be nice for you to get Aetherx2 running.. Reckon you'll like it..
Throttling as in the device getting hot then cycling down the CPU to save it from overheating.
I noticed the dips in performance plus the heat was substantially higher on 13 than 12 just from memory.
Maybe some other heavy games could emulate this test too
