Hi! I've been reading this forum on and off for few years, but never actually posted. Hope someone here can help me sort out my issue, thanks in advance!
Basically, I've flashed a cm13 via custom recovery on my second phone - Xiaomi Mi4, and I'm having all sorts of issues with it. I bought the phone in China, and for a while
used the stock MIUI interface, but I hated all the bloated apps and weird pop-up advertising, so decided to flash. it was the first time i've attempted it, so it took some
time to figure it out
My two main issues with cm13:
1. It crashes and restarts two/three times daily for me. I mean, I've cleared cache, I basically have no apps on the phone (apart from few messaging apps and facebook).
Is it just because it's an early cm13 build, or it's a nature of custom roms? I'm wondering if switching to a snapshot cm12 build would be better? I don't really care for
android 6 features on this phone that much, I just want a stable experience.
2. The charging became uber slow, painfully so. On MIUI it'd charge to 100% in about 3 hours or so. On cm13 it takes 3-4 hours to get to 30-40%! Never seen anything like
this. Also, if the battery depletes to 0%, the phone wouldn't turn on, even plugged in for charging. It'd turn on after an hour or two into the charging process. Seems weird,
as every other android phone I've owned previously would turn on even with 0% battery if I'm plugged in.
Anyone else experience any of the listed issues? Is it just an early build, or I've done something wrong in the flashing process? I really just want a stable simple os, no advanced
features or whatever, just need it to work
Thanks!
I have been using latest nightly.. No issues no reboot.. Charging time is 3hr

Thanks for reply! Would you mind telling me which gaps you've used for your build? I remember I had some sort of an issue with few gaps
I tried, I think only the smallest package worked for me. Maybe that's the issue and something in the gaps i've installed freezing/rebooting my os?
Thanks

Hi guys,
Not sure what could be the issue. I'm quite a veteran when it comes to troubleshooting these phones and flashing, etc. I've been a power user since the S1 and S2.
I flashed CM9 a few weeks ago, one of the stables and it was all running fine. One day I picked up the phone after charging overnight and it was really hot, the battery drained in about an hour or so, the whole time it was extremely hot.
I flashed a few other CM roms, which didn't fix much, tried full wipes and everything.
I've now gone back to an original samsung rom which I flashed via odin. This seems to have fixed the overheating issue, however, my battery barely lasts more than 3 hours on full charge and this is with absolutely minimal use (few phone calls).
WiFI is also extremely unstable. It takes a while to connect to any network, and when it does, it'll drop after a few minutes. I've tried different networks.
Scanning for WIFI networks works fine, so does this rule out a faulty WIFI chip?
I'm thinking the battery drain may be related to the WIFI card.
I've also tried a new battery.
Any suggestions, or is the phone fried?

No, to get up your hopes, the phone isn't dead, yet.
Try flahsing a ROM, other than CM. I have the same problem, with AOSP, that's why I stick to sammy based ROMs, AOSP is made for the device, but Google only tunes it up to their standards, when it has something to do with their Nexus devices.
I'd say: Try a different ROM, don't overclock it. If that doesn't work, flash stock and then try it. One of the two should work, though!
I've gone back to a stock Samsung 4.0.1 rom. Flahed using odin, yet still the same issue with battery life and WIFI.
I've heard somewhere that flashing CM9 can cause WIFI issues, and there's a specific flash procedure to get it working normal again?

My bad, I mean whichever came with the phone.
mdm_hsic_pm0, the battery killing wakelock I have witnessed on every rom I have flashed lately.
Now it has come to this point where Im really asking myself why do I still use this phone when it can drain out the battery at any given time in my pocket without me noticing it until its too late...
I have tried every possible fix and at this point Im really about to give up and go back to my old Windows Phone which atleast worked.
Am I alone with this problem? I just cant be the only one who has to deal with this :crying:
Late night thread start in the wrong area, I was supposed to post this on the I9305 Q&A section...

I feel your pain. About a year ago, I traded in my beloved Note 2 solely due to this wakelock, and got a Oneplus One. I will never buy another phone without an unencrypted bootloader, so that rules out any further Samsungs, it appears. But I otherwise loved the Note. I had the 1 and the 2, my wife still has the 2, and I have a 10.1 (which does not suffer this wakelock). But I could not stand my otherwise stellar Note 2 due to this wakelock appearing out of the blue and destroying my battery on a regular basis. I researched this for A YEAR and never found any solutions, and got to the point where I put a wakelock detector widget on my homescreen and whenever I noticed the wakelocks over 50%, I rebooted, which usually solved it for a day or two, but sometimes for only a few hours or not at all.
My wife still has a Note 2, though, and trying to renovate her phone, I put a Slim rom on it. thinking that perhaps the problem had finally been solved. These are the best battery roms for the Note, but they still suffer the wakelock, like every other rom and kernel I tried, and I tried all of them. But it seems the AOSP roms get the wakelock about twice as often as the Touchwiz roms - at least once per day instead of every other day. So she's stuck with a Touchwiz rom, and also has the wakelock detector widget on her homescreen and has to reboot every other day. My advice is to give up - if you are getting this wakelock, there is no solution, so don't think you are going to fix it.
I am running Android 6.0 Marshmallow on my Nexus 9 build number MRA58N. Device is not rooted but the bootloader has been unlocked and I am running everything on stock. Clean fresh install about 5 days ago. I did face some trouble trying to root my tablet at first (boot loop) but instead I formatted and just reflashed the firmware clean using (flash-all).
First few days, performance was below average, lag here and there but it was acceptable and it did go away after a day or so. Could be the tablet adjusting and syncing with the recently installed apps.
What I did find unusual though was the battery stats. It showed numbers (99013, 99023, 99033) processes which I am unfamiliar of. I tried googling it and searching on the xda forums about this but have not found any post on this. Is anyone else experiencing this? Is something wrong with my device? It could be the culprit to the overheating and battery drain.
(still trying to find out how to upload the screenshot, if anyone could help out with this, it would be much appreciated. PS: xda says that I have to make at least 10 posts before I can share external links, so I don't know how to make imageshack work here. Or I'll just make the 10 posts somehow.)

I've seen those numbers before, however not sure what they are either.
What type of battery are you seeing.
When I was on stock mra58n I was seeing around 4-5 hours screen on time and about 4-5 days overall time on. I thought that was pretty good. I only lose about 1-3% overnight so I could let it sit for quite awhile untouched and still have a charge.
I am now on PureNexus Android 6.0 ROM and seeing about the same but slightly better battery. I'm seeing 5.5-6 hours screen on time and 6-7 days overall time on.
This is with ElementalX kernel which I highly suggest.
How long have you had the tablet? I just got it on the HTC 40% of sale.
I recently have been having the same problem, as seen here: imgur DOTCOM /a/IMqFW, you can see the "99006" active, right now another has appeared with "99040". I saw these number a week or two ago. I've had my tablet since may or so. I posted on the reddit r/Nexus9 for help, someone suggested that it might be some sort of old application which left a few things behind when it was removed from the device. I don't really know what to think of this.
Hi,
I also observed a drastic battery drain and going to the "battery" section in settings, i found a weird "99040" thing with a black android robot icon, draining 16% of my battery.
I don't know how to remove this and I suspect this is malware or something related.
Does anyone know how I can remove that sh**** ???
Best regards.
Hi guys! I ordered the oneplus x yesterday and it is coming in tommorow. I am coming from the nexus 5 ive been using it for 2 years and i flashed the heck out of that phone until the motherboard died last month lol. So the question is should i root this phone? Will i lose some functionality of some sort? Is it better with custom roms?
Any help on this will be appreciated!
Well, the only thing you will lose is the Ota features... (Over the air updates)

Okay cool, i know about that. Thanks anyways
Yes you should since OOS get almost no updates and custom roms are working great !
I've been debating the same thing coming from the nexus 5 which just died. Even after replacing the battery, it just won't boot anymore. I'm actually quite enjoying this Oxygen OS. I've only been using the phone for 3 days, but it has enough customizations that I don't think I need a custom rom. It allows you to customize the battery with percentage, and has the custom reboot menu out of the box.
The only thing I'm contemplating root for is adaway, as I hate surfing the web and seeing all these ads and perhaps the custom kernel to get more battery life.
I'm getting tired of boot loops and troubleshooting the phone because of something I flashed I'm going to see how long I can stay with an unmodified phone this time around.

I was tired of the bugs too, tried to stay on the same rom for 1-2 months but there were always issues no matter what. Lets see when my phone arives tommorow! I am expecting better battery life from opx as the n5's battery life sucked xD even with elemental x.
Do you think opx is better in terms of daily usage than the 5?

I was a long time Cataclysm + Elemental user since I got the phone in 2013. With the custom kernel, I was able to easily go a full day without charging. I found all the problems with the N5 began when I upgraded to Marshmallow. LP never had all these issues I experienced. Currently OPX on LP, after 3 days the phone is running very smooth, no issues at all and the battery lasts a full day as well so I currently have nothing bad to say about this phone.
I just updated to 2.2.1 this morning, as the phone came with 2.1.2 from the factory but I wanted to ensure I didn't have any problems before upgrading the OS. But for me, I'm very happy with the OPX right now. I think it's more than suitable as a daily and there isn't much I miss on the N5.

Yep, m was buggy. I was on chroma and the phone slowed down after a month on every mm rom. Dont know why, anyways thank you for your experience
Got a almost new 1+x here for about 3 days the previous owner had used kingroot on it so it stayed after reset I did get a Ota but it kept failing to install so downloaded the full oxygen rom update.
It's been working great I ended up putting kingroot back on as its something different and don't feel like I need to flash a custom rom yet

Hello everybody,
about two months ago, I had an issue with my installed ROM on my Redmi Note 2 Prime (I think it was this one: http://forum.xda-developers.com/redmi-note-2/orig-development/rom-cyanogenmod-12-1-t3288916 ). I decided to try out another ROM so I installled Bule's Mokee ROM ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/red...nt/rom-cm-12-1-mokee-bule-mokee-blue-t3328382 ). After a few days with this ROM I recognized a big battery drain while screen off so I installed BetterBatteryStats to get some more informations. It told me that about 50-75% of the time my CPU was running at 800mhz instead of deepsleep (at a normal day with about 1-2h of Screen-On-Time). It didn't look to me like something is creating a wakelock though (but maybe I am just unable to see this). I tried the next ROM: Daniel Pinto's CM12.1 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/redmi-note-2/development/rom-unofficial-t3310551) and again the same issue! I tried a full wipe of my internal storage, did not install xposed and did not install any titanium backup. The battery drain didn't go away. So i flashed another ROM: SlimMIUI V7.1.3.0 ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/redmi-note-2/development/rom-slimmiui-dev-stable-t3296594 ) and suddenly there was no more screen off battery drain! This went well for about three weeks and now I am facing the old problem again! Please tell me what I am doing wrong since I don't believe it's a ROM-related issue.
I installed these apps (according to MIUI):
9gag
AdAway
Android System WebView
Antutu 3DBench
Antutu Benchmark
AquaMail
BetterBatteryStats
BikeComputer
Burning Series
Chrome
DB Navigator
Dropbox
ES Datei Explorer
Google Play Store
Google Play-Dienste
Google-Tastatur
Greenify (wasn't installed before SlimMIUI)
GuitarTuna
Hacker's Keyboard
Hearthstone
irplus
Maps
Messenger
MX Player
mydealz
No-Frills CPU Control
Nova Launcher
Open Camera
PaderSprinter
QuickPic
scondoo
SleepTimer
Spotify
SuperSU
Telegram
TeslaUnread
Titanium Backup
Twitch
Unified Remote Control
Wakelock Detector Free
WhatsApp
Youtube
What I have tried so far:
- changing ROM (clean flash)
- not installing xposed
- not using old backups
- changing the battery
- using airplane mode
Also, I wonder why there are these gaps in the battery history since I didn't reboot yesterday...but these gaps don't appear every day.
Please help me to fix this really annoying problem and make my RN2 great again!
Thanks,
Kooneybert
The biggest drain comes from all the Xiaomi bloat. Read this thread for details on how to reduce the bloat. In my experience, the second main culprit is WhatsApp. I've had to stop it from giving sound notifications (or even vibrating) when messages come in. Now, I have between 90%-95% deep sleep on idle. Basically, anything that turns on audio could be a problem, because sometimes audio doesn't go off afterwards.
You might want to try GSAM Battery Monitor for more information about what is eating up your battery.

Thx for your reply! The problem is not MIUI-exclusive. CM 12.1 from Daniel Pinto is pretty slim but gave the same result (from the first day on).
Whatsapp can't be the only problem since all my friends use it and nobody have this problem (some of them also even have a RN2). Also, my phone is in silent mode almost all the time so no app is allowed to make noise or vibrate.
I just installed GSAM Battery Monitor but I don't know how to use the app/read the provided data. I could use some help there, too.

You can only be sure if you have a really skinny ROM whereby all the unnecessary Xiaomi stuff has been removed. There are all sorts of things going on in the background - including things embedded in the boot image.
There are also possibly optimisation issues with the kernel. All the ROMs seem to depend on the same binary kernels, since there is no GPL release of the kernel source code. You might want to try one of the skinny boot images by @jajk
As for GSAM, the best to learn is by trial and error (tip: tap on everything visible to see where it leads to, and what information it gives you).

...on all three ROMs? Only for me? With this effect? On some days, it reduces my battery by 50-80%! Hard to believe it is not a bug. Also, SlimMIUI has reduced Xiaomi-Stuff, Daniel Pinto's CM 12.1 looked even more clean to me.

Aren't there different kernels out there for the RN2? Bule's Mokee-ROM uses a modified kernel e.g. Does every ROM come with a certain kernel or may it be applied from the ROM before? So maybe I am still using the kernel from Bule's Rom with my MIUI?

This will help me to read the information but it won't help to understand them, too. What do you think about this:
Kernels: You can't compile a custom kernel without the Xiaomi kernel source code. All you are left with is tinkering with ramdisk in the boot image
Screenshots: the one on the right shows what is sucking your battery; the biggest culprits are the Xiaomi kernel and Google ...

...is this normal? The Kernel is the biggest battery sucker on my tablet aswell (which still has great battery). What do you think about the 8,5h of wakelock time produced by the kernel? If this is the problem, what can I do to solve it?

A "screen awake" of approximately 50% seems to me to be highly excessive (at least, if the phone was mostly idle). In nearly 12 hours, I have a screen awake of 55 minutes - so 8 hours in 15 hours seems strange. How exactly were you using your phone during this 15 hour period?
Perhaps the custom boot images by @jajk might help (see the first link in http://forum.xda-developers.com/redmi-note-2/general/roll-skinny-miui-t3309873). I am currently on v714-15 of the custom boot image.
Sounds like you may be having issues similar to what I was dealing with not too long ago, but my 'solution' was to install Bule's Mokee (still don't know why this ROM worked where so many others failed). Daniel's CM 12.1 and Xiaomi.eu were both giving me significant drain with and without the screen on to the point where I was sometimes finishing the day with an hour and a half of screen on time and ~20% battery. Now I'm getting up to double that.
One thing I can recommend is using MiFlash/Fastboot to do a total reset from scratch. Didn't really work for me, but you may be different.
Other than that, although it's tedious, you may have to install 1-3 apps per day after a fresh install to see if your battery holds at first and then dies sometime after installing certain culprits. It takes forever, but at least this helped me when I moved to Mokee to make sure that it wasn't any of my 'vital' apps that were causing me issues.
Best of luck!
Funny thing that the Mokee-Rom did SOLVE your problem. In my eyes this Rom was the beginning of my problems.

What is the difference to using TWRP?
I will try the Mokee-Rom tomorrow. Since I never used MiFlash/Fastboot before I won't use it until you tell me that there is a difference compared to doing a full wipe with TWRP.
I tried flashing the Mokee-Rom again but the problems go on. I installed very few apps and the battery is still very bad. Today I had 18 minutes of SOT and though I lost 14% in a few hours. This time it was caused by Whatsapp:
It always seems that some apps just don't like to stop doing something but it's random which app is the problem.
I am totally running out of ideas so please help me guys!
I'm on Mokee and satisfied with battery, this rom have less problems than other (for me). First of all i have installed MobileRadioActiveFix with xposed, then SmartNetwork to turn off wifi while my screen is off. I've got few other things but right now i've got over 4h SOT so it is not bad score.
i have the same problem! it happens with flashing severals ROMs (mokee by bule?) and starts battery drain with all ROM, it never goes... is not the battery, the cable or the rom..... i dont know im disperate... the sot changed from 4-4.5 h to 2-2.5 h... with all ROM, please help us and sorry for my bad english
Well i had situation that my SOT suddenly got down but i was still on march rom. After update to latest version without wipe it is ok right now.
Have you tried with wiping all with internal memory? Maybe something is there still and that is making a problem.
Another thing that came to my mind: have you changed build.prop and have copy of it? If so, delete it. I had some problems becuase of that.

every rom i have flashed was a clean install (full wipe of internal) after latest miui update, when the phone shut down at 0%, i put off the battery for 10 min, after i put back and the phone was at 19%!! now is on charge... maybe the problem is solved.. i will post if it is solved (sorry for my bad english)
I had that problem with earlier phone and it drived me crazy. I was not able to find what was the cause unfortunatelly. Phone was given to service point to install branded rom (it was not available for public). Right now i do not have problems like that, if i have some i'm able to find solution somehow. Although what i wrote helped me when i saw SOT problem.

Not that I know of. I`m facing the same issues like you here.
You can try:
-discharging until the phone shuts off
-charge it in OFF mode until its full
-disconnect charger, put battery out and in again
-connect charger, charge it to 100% again...
repeat until it shows 100% when connecting the charger.
For some ppl this seems to work.
Please let me know if you find out something!
There are lots of ppl out there with exact the same issue!

EDIT: Installed PSYROM V3 for testing purpose right now. Lets see how it does with skynet and a freshly calibrated Battery with the internal calibration tool of the rom. I`ll give feedback on monday.
Update to my issue:
-I did a full wipe (including internal memory)
-Installed PSY ROM V3.0 and Skynet
-Wiped cache/dalvic
-Startet the phone, installed my apps etc
-Charged it to 100%, waited 20 more minutes
-Did the Battery calibration with the internal calibration tool (everything is described in psy mans thread)
-Did a reboot
So far there is no Battery Drain, after the (long) reboot, wich took around 5-10min because miui is optimizing apps etc the phone came up with 97% and stayed there for almost an hour now.
I´ll give you guys feedback next week. Hopefully we get this sorted out.
You can try Angels & demons ROM v8.0 it is providing me with great battery life, so much better than stock or stable version of MIUI. I use Gsam battery monitor, and I have not faced that issue so far.
