Good Day XDA Friends!, I would like to take opinions from you guys to a feature that may exist without us knowing (not sure).
As this post indicates(https://android.stackexchange.com/q...tery-but-use-connected-power-to-run-the-phone) Redmi note 8 supports BATTERY IDLE CHARGING which means using the phone plugged and while using it, it uses the plug itself to sustain charge and not the battery itself. This may prolong the battery life by lessen the battery cycles like laptops that have conservative modes. With that I would like to gather some insight about this feature if it will have some problems with the battery especially when doing something that is intensive. Thanks for the reply!
Great info !
i hope custom rom makers implement this feature in their roms ...

I think it's a kernel side not in custom rom. It works in every custom rom with specific kernel that supports idle charging
how to enable it?

I use ACCA Advanced charging controller app, there is an option within that to enable the OP mentioned feature. But of course, the Kernel has to support it, for it to work. But if your ROM does not support it, it is just a question of flashing a custom kernel.
ACCA can be downloaded from here or installed from the Magisk repo, although the Magisk repo version only has the Terminal to manage configuration changes.

It is a separate app that allows you to tinker with other charging techniques. For example you can specify a cooldown rate when the battery is getting to hot, it allows you to use Battery idle providing the kernel supports it, plus more. The app is called Advanced Charging Control App AccA for short there is also a Magisk module in the repository for ACC but that is all command line. But it you install the app it does install that module as the app is just the GUI for the module.

Yes I would advise to disable any smart charging that's built into the ROM.
The developers do mention to check out the battery university link before using it. But the app does have its own profiles built in which can be accessed on the middle button, generally the the default profile is good enouth.
I could share my own personal settings but they definitely wouldn't be ideal for everyone, especially since I manually limited the charging current to 800ma. Which would mean it would take longer to charge the battery to the charge limit.

what kind of issues? no one has ever reported any issues regarding battery idle mode in supported devices, at least i never encountered it both here and in telegram group
probably issues will arise if the charger and cable is not compatible
im using it intensely these days, playing mmorpg while multi tasking watching youtube or browsing
what i notice is phone's temperature actually does not as hot when using the battery and if you afraid if the power might be too high you could just adjust it using acca module although it was unnecessary
you could just try, do at your own risk :laugh:

Bug
1. Lag (menu, animations)
2. Battery Issue
3. Offline Charging not working
as far as I know those are the main bugs.
Debug1. Go to Settings --> Developer Option --> Window animation scale & Transition animation scale --> "set .5x"This Reduce lags 98% 2.1 Go to Settings --> Developer Option --> Background Process Limits --> set "No background Process"
2.2 check ur build.prop, if there is a line 'persist.rildenabled' delete that lineThis makes phone to be in deep sleep and increases the battery life3. If u use cwm, probably it is clashing wit offline charging? Solution download the below chargemon and owerite in system/bin, please note you will loose ur cwm recovery.Note : If you listen to music, make sure to stop it from apps.

Takes quite a while to charge, but left mine unplugged overnight(accidentally)with WiFi/3g off and absolutely NO drain.

Changing "Limit background processes" to anything else than default helps with overall smoothness - but I don't recommend setting it to "no background processes" (2-3 is the best in my case). Phone should go into deep sleep regardless of this setting.

I have been suffering from the battery drain issue thanks to Android OS never sleeping. I installed the ICS beta using the autoflash.bat file which, as well as enabling wi-fi and BT also included the following in build.prop:
persist.rildenabled=1
So I removed this line as it's not required. At the same time I also uninstalled LiveWare Manager which I'd installed soon after installing the beta.
Now my battery life is a lot better, Android OS seems to be sleeping (my phone has been on 3 hours and Android OS has only been awake for 20m). After 3 hours I'm still on 96%.
So either a) the build.prop change matters, b) LiveWare Manager sucks on ICS or c) my phone has settled down of it's own accord.

Same for me. When I bought the phone I immediatelly upgraded to 5.0.2. After upgrading, I did a factory reset through Recovery. Android OS and Android System eat up most of the battery, whereas in normal cases it should be screen and standby (and perhaps some fewquently used app).

Looking at that first screenshot of the battery chart it looks like you have an alarm or wakelock keeping your phone awake when it should be sleeping. Take a look at my Moto G 2014 battery guide

Well that guide is great as a general recommendation. However, what we have here looks like a bug. Android OS and Android System should NEVER take more battery than standby and screen.

You are right. And I see that in my xt1032 that still runs on KitKat these wakelocks do not exist. Could this have to do with data wiping? I factory reset the phone from recovery AFTER the 5.0.2 OTA update. AFAIK it fully wipes data and cache.

It does. Install BetterBatteryStats from here and run it for a while. It'll give you details on every wakelock and alarm on the device and how much battery it is using. Then you can use amplify in the tutorial I linked to earlier to configure the wakelocks so they are not consuming as much battery.

Thanks a lot Duck86, but I think that for a brand new phone I should not need to do all these things to get decent battery life. As I said my old xt1032 on kitkat was is to handle two days of significant usage and most of all, if you did not use it the battery did not drain. By the end of the day, battery usage was topped by standby, screen and perhaps an app with frequent use. On top of that, 5.0.2 looks generally unstable compared to the utterly robust 4.4.4 that runs on my xt1032. I get noise and lag in call sounds for example, issues that were not even imaginable on xt1032/kitkat.
So I think I will try to fall back on kitkat. The problem is that I do not know which stock ROM I should install.
My Baseband version is:
MSM8626BP_1032.3105.93.00R EMEA_DSDS_CUST
My kernel version is:
3.4.42-g48d3b85
My system version is
22.21.28.titan_retaildsds.retaildsdsall.en.03 reteu
Build number
LXB22.46-28
Any clues?
It's probably gsam battery monitor that is doing all the wakelocks to gather data.

Nothing special, depends on what you were doing. To have a clearer view: Load your battery until it's full and let the phone rest for one or two hours. Make some screens than. You can see what kind of wakelocks disturb the sleep mode of the device.
"Who is the guilty?" Motorola?..
Guys you know about the bug with the gps? When you turn on and off the GPS on the stock rom and the GPS remain on and kills your battery until you restart the phone? Took me about 2 weeks to figure out.

There are lots of settings but wakeloc detector will tell you real quick what's going on. After that we can go from there. Also you might update to Franco's test build r26, its a couple pages back in his thread. I think it fixed a few wake issues.

franco himself said that build would not effect wakelocks in anyway. It just modified the idle loop in the cpu scheduler to allow the cpu to idle easier.

I thought I had seen the opposite posted in his thread. Could be wrong though.
just copy and pasted his post. At least thats what I got from this post.
"If you wanna test a new feature of r26 which is a patch from upstream that instantly idles (idle is not offline, it's a shallow power state when there no jobs running on the core to preserve energy) if a core is running with <= 1 job instead of going through a idle_balance() loop which goes on to decide if the core should or shouldn't enter idle, and it's not cheap. With this patch it also reduces the overall load_average since it reduces idle_balance() calls by 75%. In theory it should improve battery life. boot.img attached
I don't have numbers, but I sent the patch to imoseyon and he's already testing it. With your help we'll get some pretty numbers soon. This is completely agnostic of wakelocks, so if you have them, you're on your own, like you always are."
This is what you want see in wakeloc detector. As close to 0% as you can get. Just find out what's running/waking up and start working on stopping those.
Wakelock Detector is great but I honestly like Better Battery Stats better myself. Look for the XDA version on here, it's free

I use gsam also just to check how things are running. Greenify once wakeloc detector tells me what's going on.
I downloaded an app called battery doctor and that has helped a lot. Going on 31 hours with moderate use
But google play services is one of the things draining the most of my battery.
I too feel like I'm struggling to get passed 1 day with really hardly any use. My phone sits on my desk most of the day and I peek at it if it goes off. Most of the time when I do get a notification, I check my gmail on the PC, as well my messages via Verizon Messages (though I still use Hangouts on the phone). It never fails by the time I get home, I'm usually around 40% battery and I feel like I've hardly touched the device all day.
I've download WLD which I've used on previous devices so hopefully I can post back after today and see what's draining my battery.
Hi, what are you using to increase your battery life? I have never used such an apps (only doze of course) but now with Oreo I have quite an idle battery drain so wanted to try something.
What do you recommend and what do you use?
Naptime? Naptime with franco kernel? Grenify? Naptime+Grenify? Naptime+Grenify+aggressive doze? Since some time Greenify has similar options to Naptime but what I read naptime works better? Is there any advantage of using paid versions?
None, those apps are useless.
If your ROM has it, use Privacy Guard. That's all.
I have also replied to you at the other topic that you were asking something similar.
I am using Doze+Boeffla kernel+Akt profiles+Naptime.
Maybe it's an overkill, but it allows me to have almost 0% consumption during night.
Sent from my ONEPLUS A3003 using Tapatalk
do you have aggressive doze on?
What AKT profiles are you using and how? You just install their APK and select what you want? And of course for that you need root, right?
I've literally tested on Oreo using without any that kind of apps, vs using it, and actually, i found out that it didn't really do any noticable difference. So on oreo i feel its quite unneccessary.

I would use a wakeblocker. NOS has one built in.
https://github.com/MrLast98/scripts/blob/master/Wakelocks.txt
Those are the wakelocks I block. It gives me about 5 hours SOT vs 3.5. Don't have to charge for 2-3 days, granted I use my phone much less than other people.

for the AKT profiles do you need to have root? As I see it works even on stock kernel.
My SOT is terrible, from morning til evening I can get it fine, but I sometimes I need my phone for 2 days without charging and then it is a problem. My idle drain is quite high.. and it is mostly from the system or something.

for the AKT profiles do you need to have root? As I see it works even on stock kernel.
My SOT is terrible, from morning til evening I can get it fine, but I sometimes I need my phone for 2 days without charging and then it is a problem. My idle drain is quite high.. and it is mostly from the system or something.

If you don't use battery hungry apps like snapchat or whatsapp you should clean flash your rom

No the only social app I have is messenger lite, no snap chat, Facebook and other stuff like this. Mostly notifications comes from Gmail only.
I did clean flash once already, same stuff

Disable "WiFi scanning on all the time" under WiFi settings. Your WiFi does not shut down in idle Mode.
scanning is OFF but wifi during sleep is ON, without this I will not get notifications after some idle time during the day
Is there any battery life issue that anyone may have encountered ever since the previous two updates.. my 6000mah battery that used to stay for 2 days minimum has gone to a single day. It's all been after the update and i saw plenty of forums in Asus itself of the same thing.
Reference :- https://zentalk.asus.com/en/discussion/54786/battery-drain-issue-on-rog-3
Anyone got any leads for this?
You're just overthinking. Stop staring at the battery percentage 24/7 and enjoy the damn phone.

You damn right! But how, bro. When u were accustomed to charging ur phone once in two days and you have to subtract 24 hours from that.. it surw changes the usage from a gaming plus daily driver to either one of the lot .. change for the bad questions a lot of stuff

What is your battery usage? Have you tried a factory reset?
What is showing as consuming most power? An optimized debloated ROG 3 with a healthy can go a week on stand-by with data enabled and even longer (no kidding) and easily 2-2.5 days with normal use.
You have to pinpoint what is doing it. It's wearing down your battery as well...

I tried, actually. The thing is i fear the Android system itself. Coz in one of the threads on the Asus website forums, there were people discussing Play Store or Play activities that keep auto restarting and also twin apps.
So for starters i did try to force close play services (can't disable coz of the emails), then battery turned out great. But afterwards it started reducing again. Same with twin apps.
I ain't kidding too. It's supposed to a 2-2.5day phone easily with the 6000mah battery, but for me it's a single day max to max a 12+ (3-4) hour phone

Ok. I also had some battery drain (not on idle tho) and installed Kirisakura kernel, seems to have solved the issue for me. I also wiped Dalvik cahe. It may also have been the solution

You can also try to use the Naptime app, it forces the phone into Doze when screen is off. Adb access or root is needed
GSAM can also be used to find the culprit
If disabling Goog Play Services stops the issue, it's likely linked to one or more running apps or processes. It's likely not Play Services itself but because one or more other components are making calls to it. Try to review all the running apps & services on your device and selectively disable them and gauge the difference. Apps that do a lot of syncing, using location services, excessive notifications (cloud messaging), Firebase indexing, etc etc.... If you have a good app manager tool, that will make the hunt easier.

That's great, will try the kernel coz I still haven't rooted my phone. Does the kernel need root?

Does installing a Kernel need root access? Coz I don't want to root as of now.. and i haven't installed a Kernel ever.. is it riskier than a root?

Yes, this kernel requires root
