Horrible battery life (Android System battery drain fault) ?

Hi
Since around a week i noticed very high usage of Android System proccess. Its taking a lot of battery juice. I switched between various ROMS global/dev it doesnt solve the problem. I see people getting easily 8-10h of SOT while im at.....well check yourself screenshots. Brightness auto, no sms, no calls, only a little data LTE. This is unacceptable.
And the "Android System" is now at 21% in apps, earlier it wasnt even present or of it was it was very low few percentages.
I think i did everything i could. Yesterday flashed global stable 7.2.3.0 with MiFlash choosing "flash all".
Going down from 100% to 90 as you see it takes just around 15 minutes. Why is that ? Going frokm 100% to 99 takes like 30 seconds. Is it possible its faulty battery in my model ?
Any ideas ?
try to remove sd-card, sim-card
do factory reset (do not sign in to google / mi account) and see how it goes
I did remove sim card. Didnt help. Dont have sdcard
Factory reset will wipe everything right ?

yes, everything means it will wipe out what drains your battery to (should)
I had the same problem. Full wipe in TWRP, and then factory reset again after first boot. Battery was back to normal.
Please just confirm it... I will test new china dev and if problem persist I will report again with new ss...

I'm having the same issue, Android System was just using up a few percent of battery, since a few days it drains battery very fast(Android System 20%, Android 13%), also when phone is in standby (BBS tells me phone is in deepsleep over 90% of the time, so wakelocks are not an issue).
Very strange, as in my first days I easily got 10h SOT and now barely make 6h.
I'm on MIUI 7 Global 6.5.19 Beta by the way.
Try using Smiui rom......!!!!! Got a not good battery on xioami.eu roms.....!!!! But with Smiui rom, it is better....not heating at all....
I need help. My android system used my battery until 30%. It drains my battery so much. Anybody help me?
Try using cm13 official! 1 hour of sot for every 10 percent

I flashed radon kernel and that seems to have improved nbattery.
I have absolutely same problem with this dude. I've got more like a 7-8 SoT with 2.5 days usae on vendor rom (something like 7.3.2.0.0 (bewre of an extra zero) but the battery was immense.
I then later unlocked bootloader officially and since I liked the miui I was using, told myself "hey, lets keep going". I've flashed global stable 7.3.2.0 hell. it was awful. 10 minutes, battery was dropping like a gaggled eye m..f..r. I also noticed that the phone not too much but was heating up when the screen was on. On vendor, I haven't noticed any heat except charging. btw, I never play games. only listen to music and read news-articles on my phone.
I have also noticed that on marathon mode, pone uses insane battery but it wasn't awake.. (how the F.. could that happen?) on vendor, it was 0-1%; on 7.3.2 official Global Stable, its minimum %6-7 on AIRPLANE mode in 7 hours!!!
SO far tried different roms but looks like nothing's working. still same issue. I'm guessing the problem could be related to kernel, but I'm not gonna go over it. even unlocking bootloader and flashing an official rom has taken my days and I had hardbircked the phone.
aint gonna buy a xiaomi again. that was my first time, and probably the last.
Guys I am facing same problem
Android system and android both are draining battery
And usage for both of them is like 30-40%
Plz can someone suggest a fix that does not involve resetting my phone

(HELP) Very Poor battery Standby Time on Redmi Note 3 Kenzo....

Hi there. I've Redmi Note 3 Kenzo for a month now. I've problem with my phone battery backup. It have very poor standby time. Even when I'm not using my phone it continuously looses 2/3 percent of battery per hour i.e around 40-50 % in a day . I usually turn off data, wifi , GPS etc after using even though its the same. I tried MIUI 8 Global as well as Chinese (Both stable and Beta version), even downgraded to MIUI 7 on various version, used eu.xiaomi ROM, MultiROM etc but still there is same problem. In some custom ROMS like CM 13 and RR Remix there is a bit improvement in standby time but not as it must be in 4100 mah battery. As I like using MIUI than custom ROM so my problem is still there. I am tired of flashing various ROM every now and than. Does anyone facing same problem. Can anyone help me and suggest some ways of solving this problem. Any help will be highly appreciated. Hope someone will Help. Please................

+1,
i am too tired of flashing this and that ROM,but battery is too horrible for me ,mostly with miui ,I get only 5-6 h sots with miui,
however my experience with nougat cm is quiet satisfactory ,it gives at least a reasonable sot,if u find something pleaaase pm me too.
It's most likely an app that is causing this. Are you able to see if the phone is going into deep sleep?

I tried Wake Lock Detector but couldn't find any app causing the problem. I even tried Greenify and Amplify app but no improvement. It seems its Problem In MIUI Rom cause using custom ROM i get a bit improvement in standby battery life. Any suggestion can you give like Which version of MIUI Rom is better for battery life.
Is there anyone who can help? Please.....
I'm currently on xiaomi.eu rom 6.11.3 (since it is the only one that allows for use of custom kernels with goodix at this time) and I get what I feel is good battery life. You could try this ROM if you have an unlocked bootloader.

Thanks for your reply. But i already tried that Rom. And yes i have officially unlocked bootloader. I usually get satisfactory SOT but my only problem is standby time. Battery is decreasing constantly even without using my phone. Currently using RR Remix Rom and getting a bit satisfactory result but i really like MIUI so I'm looking for a fix. Thanks again.

Use stock kernel with nitrogen os and use radon with exodus

Battery life

Hi everyone,
I just got a poco yesterday and I am coming from a phone a which had a really bad battery life. Poco is definitely a upgrade but I just want to make sure my battery is in perfect condition if not I have a week to replace my phone. Just help me out here guys.
Any help is appreciated.
I don't play games a lot just downloaded pubg to test the performance. Played pubg exactly 12 min and used YouTube for hour at Max. Bluetooth,WiFi and GPS were turned on. No mobile data used.
SOT of about 6 hours seems alright.
But is it what a normal user gets using this phone?
Pubg drains battery very fast in this or any other phone
I get about 8-10 hr sot. I think you need to debloat miui if you haven't already
12 hours+ SoT, but this is the old stable v9.6.14 rom, not the ****ty recent rom, poco team continues to provide ****ty updates that ruins everything with each update, while removing important features & adding more bloatware

May i know how you downgraded? Also aren't you suffering from bugs the phone had at launch in stock room.
Well we love our F1's battery! Ok Im probably a bit older than you and won't use it like most and im a bit of a battery freak, but I got 7 days 6 hrs with 9 hrs screen on time, mainly just whatsapp chrome email calls etc, and maybe a few mins on Pet Rescue, my old Sammy S7 Edge with the same use wouldn't even see 2 days. My daughters F1 gets 4+ full days and mainly plays dragon city? Instagram a few hrs a day, Her old Xiaomi Note 3 with same use would last 2 days if that, my wifes just got the Xiaomi A2 lite and shes managing 6+ days with very light use, facebook and whatsapp mainly.
What I can say is over the years i've always noticed the better the cell signal the better the battery life and I always stick to 3g unless speeds an issue. Ive messed a lot recently with different sims and found that at home, between EE's 1-2 bar signal and Vodafone Full signal, the Vodafone cell battery use is over 50% better than EE, before switching to Voda on my S7 edge Id be lucky to get 1 day out of it.
Oh and my daughter got the F1 for christmas, I charged it up, turned everything off other than 2g (so basically an old text n call phone!lol) and wrapped it up just to see how long it would last.....THREE weeks afterwards on Christmas day it STILL had 36% battery remaining with an estimate of about 5 weeks total!lol...I tried the same with the iPhone 4 and got 3 days!lol
Hope my gibbering helps

Hey, hope you have unlocked bootloader and have twrp and root
0) Remove all locks/patters/fingerprints etc..Also Backup everything through built in backup (Settings>Additional>Backup>Local Backups) Most apps won't be restored so also backup apps & app data through Titanium backup
1) Now download the MIUI v9.6.14 rom
http://bigota.d.miui.com/V9.6.14.0.OEJMIFD/miui_BERYLLIUMGlobal_V9.6.14.0.OEJMIFD_9f7f9e0fa4_8.1.zip
2) Boot TWRP & install rom
3) click back button' & install DisableForceEnyption_Treble.zip
4) Click back button' & install Magisk.zip for root
5) Wipe Davlik cache & reboot
,6) If any problem after Boot , just Boot TWRP & wipe with default options & Boot, after Boot setup phone and restore the Backups made, internal storage will be as it was before rolling back
Using Backups is only needed if you run into problem like me of unable to unlock pattern after rollback, I think it was because I didn't remove pattern/locks before rolling back

Horrible battery life

Hey, I have a redmi note 4 snapdragon version and I have flashed aosp extended rom and franco kernel in it, but I am getting a very poor battery life, hardly 1 hour screen on time and the phone shuts off by the time battery gets to 30 to 20%. My phone is rooted too and i am not using any kind of battery saver app.
:crying:
I think this is an hardware issue but, I am no expert so please help me on this and let me know what should i do. Thank you.

The problem started probably when i rooted my phone on stock rom(miui 10), the very next day i cleaned every thing (including my firmware accidentally) to flash custom rom, then after flashing i found out that none of the hardware components are working and i posted a thread about it and as per the answers i flashed a latest chinese firmware for redmi note 4.And it worked except i started noticing an awfully bad battery backup(hadn't noticed before as all this happened in just 2 days. (as a matter of fact the battery went down 5% as i wrote this, oh 6 now!)

Cleaning everything, as you stated, including the whole firmware,
You answered your whole thread yourself, just flash stock frimware, then flash AEX like flashing any normal ROM.
I have the same problem, the battery die after 1h screen, when the battery Is on 20% the device shutdown,help me pls, i have rr with franco kernel.
hi OP. base on what you are describing, it looks like your battery is dying... nothing to do with the OS. be careful 'cause chinese batterys (like 70%) turn out to be real sh*t (on my own experiance). consider to replace battery from a confiable retailer or change device.

Battery issue

I got a friend owning a Redmi note 9s. Three days ago he updated Miui up to 11.0.9.0 version . Since than he feels battery is draining way faster than usual . Is it a bug with the update ? What shall i recommend him do ? The battery on this device was amazing for him before he updated . Thanks in advance .

The bug in WiFi has been fixed in the new firmware, maybe this will increase the battery consumption!
Well, "fixed" isn't really true for some users that are facing the wlan bug.
The phone still disconnect from WiFi router every couple of minutes.
The change is that it RECONNECTS now few seconds later.
But I'm sure it is still not really battery friendly at all...
Xiaomi Eu 11.0.9.0 last roms , best battery life ever
