Are you guys using Global stable rom 9.6.1.0? My wife is using my old RN4 and its also having a battery drain/overheating issue. Battery wasn't amazing in this phone to begin with but, this seems to a real problem. It seems to be 'Android' draining the most power in battery use, which isn't very helpful. Thinking it might have to be a factory reset. Any luck with a previous rom?

This any good? Not easy to tell if it's an original battery or not.

Looking for a nice rom

I've been trying a few rows but there are so many that I don't even know where to choose.
I'd like a stable Rom with good battery, preferably on Nougat, but can also be marshmallow.

Battery life with MIUI 9...

Hey there.
Since I've upgraded myself and my redmi note 4x/snapdragon to MIUI 9 I'm experiencing strange battery life. I can't get more than 3 to 4 hours on SOT. It was the same with MIUI 8.5.
Is this normal because I've red about 7+ SOT on this phone?
Im attaching two screenshots.
btw I'm on battery for 2 days or so if that matters. Many phone calls and almost no screen usage.

Yeah. And also Android Oreo Roms are stable enough already.
If you want more customizations and stable Rom then flash RR or viperOS, PA etc.. Otherwise LineageOS, slim etc..

OK. Currently I'm on LineageOS 15 and I've got 5hrs SOT with 40% batt left.
Here is mine on LinageOS 15

Well that's great I get around 5 SOT with heavy usage and my battery lasts 2 full days. My best is 4 SOT 4 days but I guess idle uses alot..

Xiaomi.eu 9.0.4.0
Stormguard 2.9
What about 5 hours SOT, 4 hours talk time and 3 days uptime with AOSP extended and stormguard. Is it normal? I talk alot

Will kenzo support project treble?

Will kenzo support project treble?(BTW mido can)
Well it would depend on work of good people we call developers. Since my own talents lay in different categories then android development I stay grateful for chance to use their work for free
But I understand your question and we can only hope that developers for our device want to port Project Treble for our device.
Hmm can i know even what is that? I would like to know it, thanks!

If rn4 supports, rn3 can supports. But it's whole upon the work n free time of our respected developers. Hope to see project treble on redmi note 3 too... SD 650 is a little bit low in battery n performance than that of sd625 n 636... But it's not bad...

Performance side, snap650 is way better than 625. CPU and GPU too. Its quite good in battery also. A Very good CPU indeed.
I agree but it's not well optimized chip as compared to 625 n 636

650 has waybetter processing power than 625. Hence it is also slightly more power hungry.

Asking about most stable rooted ROM for RN4 MTK

Hi, asking about most stable rooted ROM for daily use for my RN4 MTK!
Thx in advance
I rooted my phone in order to try some customs roms...
Ended up with messed modems,region and whole bunch of sh*t.
At the end,i instaled Global Stable Rom MIUI 8.2.1.0 as this one has the best battery life for me (7-8 hours of SOT) and evrything else is really good for me...
Latest MIUI9 (9.5.1.0) is ok with battery life as well but MIUI8 is better for me and my use...
Hope this could help you ☺

Its mine on miui pro 9.5.2.0
This is my SOT with aosp on redmi note 4 mtk
But if u tell me that the miui 8.2.1.0 can do 7/8 of SOT i install that
Pls tell me if this news is true
Both screenshots are from MIUI 8.2.1.0 for Note 4 MTK...
Second one is my personal best from few months ago where i did 6.5h SOT and still 18% of battery...
No additional charging in between...i take it out in the morning from the charger when i go to work and plug it in charger in the night when i go to sleep...
If the day is "weak" sometimes when I go to sleep i still have 60% of battery so in that case, I don't plug it in for charging...

Its good bro. Mine aroound 4hours sot
20% down and 100 minues of SOT...by constant use it should be around 500 minutes which is roughly 8h of SOT...
My phone is around 18 months old,so battery is not brand new [emoji4]

usually using more mobile networks how many hours of active screen can you do?
I tested a lot of ROMs: the 'original' from en.miui.com, Xiaomi.eu, AOSP, Epic, Multirom, MiuiPro... in my tests the more Stable was Xiaomi.eu based on a Stable ROM, it's the 'original' with some tweaks to improve the system at all (including performace, battery and remove a lot of chinese things). The better in battery use was AOSP, but some apps doesn't work (BW Ruler for example) and is based in a old release, so I think was almost unsecure to use if you are a heavy user like me.

Not sure because 9-10h a day i spend at the office where i have wifi... recently we built a completely new building and mobile network reception inside the building is very low (some of the time i'm completely without any signal at all)... that's the main reason of 70%-30% ratio...this 30% is when i'm out of office or home...i use both sim slots (one for private and one for business number) so all emails are going through this phone...including viber,whatsapp,facebook,Instagram, LinkedIn,gMail etc...

I have tried a lot of different ones as well... even mesed up something (mostlikely modems) so sim2 was not functioning at all for some time but at the end, original global stable suits best for me.
And i prefer MIUI8 over MIUI9 [emoji4]
