Some tests with stock rom to improve battery - LeEco Le Max 2 Questions & Answers

Well I'm kind of new with root my LeEco (last Saturday) but I'm searching the way to improve battery through different apps, or a combination of them. For all day I'm using L-Speed and Greenify, and for stand by time at night Darker Screen Filter Pro and Lean Droid.
Greenify is indeed a marvelous app, and now I'm freezing the PanoSearch, LeEco Account App, Music App and Google App. It's incredible how music keeps open (according Wakelock detector). For Darker Screen Filter Pro, well, I leaving it with an estimated time of come back with normal brightness (I configure it to go a 40 per cent lower of the lower brightness of the device). On Lean Droid (free), deactivate WiFi, Cellular Radio and Bluetooth through all the night (began at midnight to 8 AM).
And finally L-Speed, I like that app, until now doesn't resolve all battery issues of the LeEco but I'm working on it. My configuration (I'm translating it to english because I have the app in spanish)
Ajustes principales (Main adjustments): Programacion del potenciador (30 minutos) [Boost optimization, 30 minutes]; Kernel Panic (active), Flag Tuner (active)
Ajustador de la CPU (CPU adjustments): Governor tuner of the CPU (Battery), Intervalo (10 minutes)
Bateria (Battery): Mejora de la bateria (Battery Improvements) (active)
Gestor de RAM: Gestor de RAM (equilibrado), Virtual Memory Tweaks (Battery)
I have a X829, 016s stock rom

You can also try some of the cleaned stock roms by Crisbal. And also try Force doze app and helix engine

Helix engine does miracles..

Helix doesn't work for Android 6.0 I know force doze but I will test how to configure it, because I used it in another phone and there isn't any way to receive notifications of any kind unless unlock the phone

another advice to improve battery life with the device rooted? I deactivate light notification, vibration, now I'm using greenify, l speed and lean droid.

Heyyo, tbh I'd recommend switching to a different build of EUI ROM. I have an x829 and that locked down version of EUI ROM 16s isn't good compared to other variants.
There's a 020s North American build which is superior but it does require manually flashing it via TWRP.
There's also a 21s Indian build which is good. Same with 19s.
Finally, there is 30s Chinese which is the latest but it is bloated.. so if you were going to use it? I'd recommend CrisBalGreece builds as they are debloated and have lots of tweaks included and optional install tweaks too.
On 16s on my x829? I remember YouTube video freezes sometimes and notifications not working for a few apps and I didn't root or use any mods.

The CBG room is EUI 6.0 Stable? I'll lost the bands of network changing the rom to N. American or Indian build? In my X829 I didn't have any trouble with youtube and the notifications goes well until now

Technically there's CBG based on official EUI 6 which is still marshmallow (essentially the same build as 5.9.030s with a security date of January 1, 2017...) and there's EUI 6 Nougat which is based on a leaked version of EUI ROM and afaik it is stable now yes... but tbh I haven't tried it so I don't know what that experience is like.
If you want as stable as possible? I'd recommend the CBG build based on official EUI 6. If you want a more up to date version? EUI 6 Nougat.

What's the SOT?
I found best battery is stock rom 5.9.26S from ALBA in Russia forum you can download it here:
https://cloud.mail.ru/public/3rWz/V8e4aZYBE
Or Madsurfer stock rom 5.9.26S with Sense home launcher
Nougat rom try Ground Zero roms Tipsy, Validus, Tesla normally it got pretty good battery life with good performance.

Used it last night for 2 1/2 hours sot to 50% so I'm assuming 6 hours. Just feels so much more smooth and solid than linage or RR or aosp based ROMs. Way smoother than eui.
It's miui8 port a little bit tricky to get it to boot properly the 1st time but well worth it I have Xposed installed. Freedom
Sent from my Le X820 using XDA Labs
I usually get 5.1/2 - 6 hours SoT on RR which is pretty decent. You just need to find the right settings for long battery life.
Small EUI could potentially outperform RR in the field of batterylife , but I just can't get used to EUI based ROMS after experiencing Nougat features.

I'm running 7.1.2 RR 27/05 build.
I changed the resolution to 1920*1080/420 dpi. It's more than enough for me, I see no point of watching 1440p content on a mobile screen.
I use Balanced Xana ATK profile (Settings->Leeco Extras->AKT profiles) and Greenify app to limit background running apps.
I turned off the logger buffer sizes (Developer settings). In Display settings turned on adaptive brightness and reduced power consumption (livedisplay). Also turned on batterysaving mode in location settings.
I would like to highlight that If I play any game (usually Mobile Legends) I get around 4 - 4 and a half SoT with approximately 1 hour gameplay.
I also tried out the newer build (02/06) but AKT profiles didn't work in that one (not noticed any differences in Kernel Adiutor), so I've decided to stay on this build for while. But I read that there are new powersaving features in the latest build, you might wanna check that out.

Do you have any link telling more about that Russian ROM? A thread link or something like that. I guess its from 4pda? I've tried to search but got nothing. Seems to be a very lightweight ROM..
Thanks.

It's on Russia forum here I found rom by ALBA for Le Max 2 and Le Pro 3 (different tread): this link for Le Max 2:
http://4pda.ru/forum/index.php?showtopic=822890
You gotta click under LeEco Le Max2 at the top fourth line in blue text (EUI) and there is 5.9.26S. It's Russian language though not much I can understand.

Interactive cpu governor, alucard hotplug, and no, i didn't underlock. But if you chose a AKT profile, you don't have to necessarily mess with kernel settings, the profile does that.
Now I'm on 13/6 build, so far it's fine. A bit laggy though, I think the BS 2.3 could cause that. Not noticed any difference in battery life.

Hey. Thank you for the great explanation! What was your on the 7.1.2 RR 27/05 build? Can you upload the kernel or the rom itself please? Thx
Edit: I think it can be bs 2.1. I'm using v13.07 of RR N. I flashed that bs kernel. I'm testing it with some Kernel A. changes and stock AKT. I'll add a few SS about my battery usage after the test

[Recommendations] Stable daily driver ROM for Mi 5

Hey guys, recently my father got tired of ****ty MIUI and wanted something better for his Mi 5. Since it's not my phone, I cannot test various ROMs and kernels by clean flashing them.
I just need one ROM that I can switch to on his phone from MIUI.
It needs to be 100% stable (he is sick of bugs), needs to have great calling and bluetooth connection, and great battery life.
Please let me know if such ROM exists for Mi 5, and which one is it
(Do you guys face any issues with bluetooth speakers or taking calls via bluetooth in car?)
You can start with jdcteam's aosp. Has been really solid for me.

I've been using LineageOS with 0 problems so far. But it does take some time to set it up that way. For instance, you need to flash the MIUI camera to improve camera performance, and under display calibration adjust the RGB values to 90% to prevent image retention (a problem on MIUI too).
I can confirm that Bluetooth works fine, calling is clear and battery life is good but not better/worse than MIUI. I haven't tried taking calls over a car's Bluetooth.
You should also check out the Xiaomi.eu weekly MIUI 9 builds as they usually fix what Xiaomi broke in their MIUI builds and are actually supported by Xiaomi.

Thank you for the recommendations guys. Are you using the stock kernel or any custom kernel like BB kernel, Nagatobimaru etc?
What is your opinion about AOSPA and RR ?
AOSP Extended all the way. Using it from past 3 months.

Nagatobimaru kernel has terrible battery life for me (like 1h30m SOT even though I was initially excited to try it out because it incorporates EAS). I use LOS stock freq kernel, which removes the underclock of the 32GB Mi5 from 1.8GHz to 2.15GHz but is otherwise just the stock LOS kernel. On this kernel I get between 3-4h30m SOT.
AFAIK LOS is the only ROM with display calibration and all the others have no way to fix the severe image retention which is my main reason for sticking with it. If it doesn't bother you or affect your unit then I can highly recommend AEX which seems to be the ROM 90% of the devs are on.

What do you mean by the image retention issue? And what have you calibrated? As far as I understand, you have just tweaked the RGB values of the screen. Can you tell me your values? I think the same thing can be done via Kernel Adiutor if you are on a kernel that supports KCAL. AFAIK, stock LOS kernel doesn't have it but most ROMs and all custom kernels have it.
What about AOSP by JDC team, it appears very stable with EAS?

Yes, it's the same problem - I am unaware whether this is a software or hardware problem, but you can correct it 100% with software. It looks like lightbleed right around the border of the phone and you can see ghosting of previus apps around the corners (especially on a grey background). It's easy to fix in LineageOS, but I've had trouble in every other ROM I tried so far.

It looks light an orange tinted lightbleed right around the borders of the display and some ghosting of previous apps are overlayed on the current app (especially visible on grey backgrounds). Check the attached image to see what mean, and this is only about 50% of how bad it can get if you don't adjust for it.
Yes I just tweaked the RGB values to 90% (anything more and you can still notice the effect).
I tried using Kernel Adiutor to fix this problem to no avail, using different ROM and kernel combinations. I never checked if the kernel supports KCAL specifically though.
It's been too long since I used JDC's ROM, but if I remember correctly it was stable and fast but lacked essential features at the time (music playback controls, lockscreen torch, display calibration settings). Their Oreo ROM is far ahead of Lineage 15 in in terms of stability though, not that it's DD ready.

Woah thanks for sharing this man, I didn't know about this, can you please share the screenshot of the settings you have made?
I have the same issue and I can't decide which ROM to flash. MIUI 8 is too laggy, MIUI 9 is faster but all apps crash randomly. I will unlock my phone tomorrow (after the stupid 72 hours waiting period) and I am hoping that this discussion will help us decide. Most probably it will be a choice between Xiaomi.eu or LOS.

As someone who recently used both Xiaomi.eu and LOS14.1 I might be able to clear that up.
Xiaomi.eu MIUI9 build is almost identical to MIUI 8. There are a few minor tweaks to the UI such as the task switcher which is now more immersive and the new icon pack. Settings are now more bundled together and ROM/System info is graphically displayed. Split screen multitasking seems to be the only new feature. I haven't experienced a single app crash, but the system animation speed was set way to fast by default and transition animations show tearing each time you switch apps. In short, it's fast but not smooth.
I switched back to LOS quite quickly. The only feature MIUI has that LOS doesn't is Dual Apps, and since I don't use that the choice was very simple. LOS is much smoother and faster, with minimal features on top of AOSP. I enjoy the additions, it doesn't feel bloated or barebones.
If you are going to use LOS, I recommend doing the following:
-If you have a 32GB Mi5, flash the LOS stock freq kernel
-Set the display calibration as per my previous posts
-Activate touch home button, always on fingerprint unlock
-Install Magisk
-Flash MIUI camera Magisk module + OISprop-Magisk
-Flash iYTBP Magisk module
-Flash unified hosts Adblock Magisk module (make sure to select systemless hosts in Magisk settings)
-Install Google camera HDR+
-Use Nova (paid) or Lawnchair (free) as the launcher
That should get you going and solve most if not all annoyances coming from MIUI. You'd be amazed with the quality of Google Camera HDR+! Just check the attached samples (they are all compressed due to Xda but you'll get the point).

Wow! that was very informative. Thanks a lot man :good: . And yes, I get the point about the photo samples are amazing.
I have the 32 GB version and I already purchased Nova Launcher and use no matter what. I will have to find the addons you mentioned as I have no idea what they do. It's the first time I install a custom ROM on my MI 5. One final question, do you have any thoughts on AOSP Extended?

I can add all the files you need to a dropbox folder and share the link if that would be easier? I find that the Mi5 is super easy to modify, you shouldn't worry too much. I'll add the firmware you need and GAPPS if that would help you transition.
Yes, AEX is a great ROM with many features. Most Devs seem to be on it (going by their discussions). I haven't found a way to fix my LCD issues on AEX yet, which is the main reason for not using it currently.

You need to run the apk after you flashed the magisk module and rebooted your phone to calibrate the OIS.

Should I switch to an AOSP based Oreo ROM?

Ok so Holi(A festival in India) is coming up & I have 4 days off, I thought this would be a nice time to upgrade to Oreo 8.1 from SlimROM Nougat 7.1.2 with my 200 apps also consisting of root, xposed & substratum dependent apps. After a quick search, I found that there were many ROMs that are marked as stable like the Pixel Experience ROM, Nitrogen OS but I've heard reports that all of them have a network standby battery drain bug. I won't have time after Holi for any ROM switching so I want to make sure the ROM I'm selecting doesn't have any bugs. Every customization feature I need is covered by xposed modules, so I don't need any ROM specific features, must just properly support substratum root mode & must be close to AOSP. Can anyone suggest a stable bug-free Oreo 8.1 ROM for the RN3 & also confirm whether the network standby battery bug exists or not? Thanks.
The network standby bug is there on nos. But the battery usage is still around the same as nougat, maybe a little lower. I think its some problem with the battery statistics where it just reports network as the main cause of drain, while actually its not.
Go for omni. If you can stay without a lot of customization then omni ir cardinal sgould be good. On top of that flash a kernel. Shadow or Agni are the ones that have goodix support in oreo. Personally agni is robust. I had been using omni with agni 12.2 and i get SOT's like 10-11 hours(moderate use).

Notifications channels are not available

Notifications channels or categories are introduced in Android since oreo but unfortunately I can't find anywhere in poco phone. It's the standard notification like old nougat.
I checked multiple apps like whatsapp but nothing yet.

Stock 9.6.22 for me, and this build does not provide notification channels.
I use an app called 'MIUI Hidden Settings' to set channel wise notifications. Just go into 'Manage Notification' section in that app and set channels accordingly for the apps you want.

What's ur opinion on unofficial xiaomi.eu build 9.2?
Is it better than official miui 9.6.22?
So you have some screen shots?

I've always used xiaomi.eu for all my xiaomi devices it's the best stock based rom out there if I might say. If you check the forum you will see what they do and optimize compared to stock Rom. I've also tried a few aosp Roms for my older phones.
They are based on Chinese weekly development ROM and are always up to date, sure a few bugs can occur but very few times have I even noticed them. Weekly works great as a daily drive.

Do they use same stock kernel or they build up a custom one coz i am worried about CPU and performance as well as drivers.

I need to know the major difference between xiaomi.eu 8.9.20 weekly build and stock global miui 9.6.22 in terms of stability, performance, new features, bugs, battery consumption??
Does xiaomi.eu 8.9.20 have stock kernel or is it customized? would I suffer from audio quality/ wifi-bluetooth connectivity/luquid cooling malfunction/generic drivers failure if this kernel is customized?
can I restore my apps/settings and home screen made by mi cloud/local backup from miui 9.6.22 after flashing the weekly build?

Are you being serious right now?
I've given you all the answers to your questions.
What is it you don't get when I say it's stock based.
Let me put it like this instead.
Xiaomi.eu is the exact same version as the official xiaomi weekly development version meaning it's the same kernel, modems, drivers, 1 drop of fluid in the heatpipe and so on.
The only thing with xiaomi.eu is that it's better, it's, optimized/ tweaked for better use and more towards users from all of the world, minus the Chinese stuff that most of us outside of China don't want nor need.
I hope my answers helps you understanding it's the same. Also please Google some, all those questions could easily be answered if you just Google or check a YouTube video about official vs xiaomi.eu. I even bet you get like a presentation with exact differences listed somewhere I bet.
Anyways you are welcome.

Thank you for your support
I already searched everywhere but couldn't get comprehensive answers except from you.
Thank you again for being patient
If you want to know the difference between the official and the eu ROM I suggest you first check what the difference is between official stable and official developer.
Also that you check xiaomi official forum because they post all that stuff on there. They even show you what changes have been made, what bugreports people have sent in and last but not least they even post what future updates will Come every week.
So you figure first out the difference between stable and developer, after that I think you will answer your very own questions about eu ROM vs developer official.
Peace [emoji111] I'm out

I have certain apps that don't have any notification settings, I can only enable the 'dot'. It's actually only two apps: Yi Home and Mi Home, when I open the notification settings of these apps it says they haven't shown any notifications and I only get one slider (for the 'dot').

I tried with this app but both the Yi Home and Mi Home app don't show in the list when I open 'manage notification' .
Any ideas?
I use Yi Home for my camera alerts so this is really annoying. I get no sound, LED, vibration, only a notification in the status bar which I have to look up manually.
I use Mi Home for my Roborock vacuum cleaner, this one does vibrate and activate the LED but the settings are not available for change.

CHANGELOG 1.0:

Yes and read OP please.
This ROM is awesome. It is pretty stable too. The boot logo is not very appealing. I will keep using it. No bug so far.

I have found one issue, with the phone app. When I try to call someone it doesn't show the call being forwarded,so you can't end the call. And When I am called I can't pick up since there is no prompt for accepting or rejecting call. A problem with the Google dialer maybe.

The battery is pretty terrible, it cant charge while playing, it was draining while charhing so fast, i ofc did a clean install, camera app fails a lot as well, and you cant set every live wallpaper from pixel wallpaper changer it force closes.. i hope in the future you can fix these the rom felt smooth until i started playing games and noticed it wasnt charging while playing..
Hi Dev.
I wiped my data and installed your rom. Everything was perfect. But the galaxy wearable app was force closing.
Could you please help me to solve this problem.
Best regards

Wait what XD. Never experienced this bug. Maybe a charging cable issue? Also, there are two cameras included. GCam isn't as stable as stock by a long shot, so use stock if GCam crashes too much.
Also abt Gear Wearable. Since I extensively debloated this ROM, it is possible I removed something that I shouldn't have. Not to worry, I will release an update next month (Not now because of exams)

Im back on my old 9.0 rom and everything is working just fine, i dont know what the issue was here, but ill check the update when its ready thanks!
Please add Adapt Sound feature if possible in a future build.
Fast, smooth and stable rom. But it has really bad battery usage. The older one(teampixel oreo) vas great at battery usage.
Also i can't find the "Power saving mode". There is no toggle in notification bar and i cant find a way to enable it in settings menu. Anyyone know is it possible to use Power saving mode on this rom?

Hello! The reason battery life was significantly better on Oreo was due to Oreo having a fully working Phantom Kernel! At this point, I'm just waiting for an update to that kernel, so that I can incorporate it, into the ROM, along with adapt sound, Dual Messenger, Gear 360 bug fix and Screen Write (Samsung Capture) since that it the only "useful" Note Feature that can't just be simply added back. I'll also be incorporating a few tweaks here and there to improve performance where possible! Keep an eye out for V1.1
just flashed phantom kernel v2 all ok
