I have installed and uninstalled both, I can't seem to notice any difference on which one's best for battery life. I am kind of an "heavy" user at work where I can't charge my phone. Basically whatsapp, youtube, deezer, facebook, instagram and sometimes games. Do you guys know which one of these custom roms last more throughout the day?

Hi all,
Just wondering what the battery life is like for all you Lollipop users. I feel like the battery is around the same compared to when I was still using Kitkat.
I currently have 8 hours of screen on time with about 16% of battery left. I'm using AryaMod build March 16th 2015. No custom kernels.
Power mode setting is enabled, I don't listen to music, no GPS, no web browsing, but occasionally I do watch a few Youtube videos. I also use a lot of Memedroid and some textings with Line.
No Xposed installed (don't want to mess with it until it's stable for Lollipop) but I do use Greenify.
Anyway, most people might think 8 hours of SOT is a lot with 16% battery left. But if I look at BBS, the stats are rather disappointing. There are a lot of Google Play Services wakelocks (even though Google Play Services is already Greenified). I also see a lot of PowerManageService.Wakelocks under Kernel Wakelock. I've done the best I could to troubleshoot this but it seems like there's not much else I can do to optimize it.
Just wondering what battery life you guys are getting?
no one?
I justupgraded yrster to 5.0 on my note 3 and it is draining a lot fater. If there was a root i would get rid of the stock aps that run in the backround. I would say it could use a partial charge around 4pm if i take it off the charger at 630am
Could we share some SOT or numbers with the Mi Max 2? I'm considering getting this phone over another brand.
With Lineage OS, I usually get 10-12 hours of SOT.. Using MIUI, it's about the same

On MIUI for some reason, i don't get as much SOT like on Lineage. I'm using always the same apps on LOS like on Miui, but somehow my battery doesn't last so good, like it's draining. I open the battery usage, and there is that Android system which always has the high battery usage, lik 45%+. Tried different ROMs, many times, nothing, the same thing. Probably some of my apps which i use are killing MIUI.
8h sot 6 of them in a online game...
Couple of phone calls, some sms...
Wifi always on and 26h between charges...

What others ROM did you use

Global Miui, china, developer, Xiaomi EU rom, Miui PRO.
LineageOS. No google services, no google apps, no google anything. Open Source for as long as it is achievable.
5 days between every charge (30 percent left).
F-droid is mostly where I get my APKs.
Specialized TWRP for Mii Max 2.
I'm a modest user. I don't play any games. I use my phone for Telegram, SMS, phone calls, reddit, web browsing, and E-mail.
Live background, 24/7 wifi (not standby), lte, GPS and Bluetooth (for my headphones and pebble smartwatch).
Using microg, fakestore and unifiedlp for GPS and Google framework.
Root apps are adaway. I also have magisk with xposed (systemless) installed.
Having little to no google really helps save battery time.
Having said that, I also have no key tones or vibration active for any keypresses and I've gone through absolutely all the settings and done what I can to optimize battery usage.
I don't know about my SOT because I generally don't care to look (So many days between charge).
Funnily (and it is wrong), my battery stats shows my battery capacity at an estimated 6000 mah.
It drains about 2 percent in deep sleep (night time, 7 hours), because of polling.
Right now it's at 97% with 14 hours since last charge.
Hey guys
I have question
Miui pro or lineage? Which one better than in battery life?
I can't diagnose well
I thought it would make sense to create a thread like this just out of curiosity. I've found the app 'AccuBattery' quite useful, and I'd also be interested in other people's battery usage statistics who have the U11.
I've attached my results. (U11 4/64 GB variant, locked to T-Mobile, bought in October 2017)
My everyday usage comprises browsing (MS Edge & Samsung Internet), light gaming (e.g. Bricks n Balls, Subway Surfers), some YouTube, quite heavy Facebook & Messenger, Reddit and sometimes FLAC playback with the USonic headphones connected. On weekdays, I'm on 4G 70% of the time while at the weekend, I use solely WiFi most of the time. Auto-brightness is off, it's set 40—70%.
Hi all
I thought I'd ask the experts about what are in your opinion some good roms for battery backup?
I'm currently on stock MIUI Global 11.0.5.0 (PFGMIXM) but I'm not much satisfied with the battery backup (5-6hours SOT).
I need some stable firmware since I use my phone mostly for work, no gaming, no social media, just phone calls, messaging and some light youtube usage.
Thanks!
Ion OS is brilliant, especially for battery - sourceforge.net/projects/i-o-n/files/device/xiaomi/lavender/ Around 10-11 hours SOT.
Anyone can compare MIUI vs Xiaomi.eu VS Pixel?

Miui right now just being laggy and jerky sometimes with animation, thus pixel based cutom rom just some having like miui and some is dont. I prefer evolution x on latest build, which smooth operation per my multitasking usage(on stock kernel obviously), whilst the battery just doing better other than resurection remix, pixel experience etc.

Could you be more specific about how long the battery lasts, I mean that if you are using your phone for like 4-5 days then 5-6h of SOT is quite normal for this phone but if you meant just one day then it should be about 10-11h of SOT as there will be less energy consumed by things like cellural network.
I had pretty good battery backup with POSP by AmulayaX but i found out that slow-motion isn't working so i switched to StagOS (unofficial EAS by Jimgsey) and i like this rom but i have some small issues and i consider switching to official.

5-6h SOT in 2 days. I'm not playing games I only use my phone for calls, whatsapp, emails and web navigation.
I'm on dual sim though.
I could never achieve 10h SOT in stock. Any hints for some good rom that can do that?
Thanks

Someone already suggested you to try Ion Official for Redmi Note 7 as it is EAS & feature rich also. But for more you can try Bliss ROM as well. Last but not the least LineageOS 17.1 Official. I'm currently using Bliss ROM. It is the best in all others upto now i have tried.

U can't reach 10 h SOT by 2 days on battery.
Calculate 0,5 %/h idle drain
2 days 48h - 5 hours Active drain = 43 h idle time
43 x 0,5 = 21,5 %
so round about 20% battery is lost in idle time
so 80 % for active drain.
Charging battery at 15%
80-15 = 60% left for active drain
On mostly all roms i tested i get an active drain by 10% per hour
Wud be for u 6 hours SOT
Seems normal drain with ur MIUI
But aosp roms are so much faster and mutitasking so much better compared to MIUI.
I only got 3 GB model and there no way back to MIUI
I gave PixelE+ a try but I'm experiencing less battery backup than stock (and some random freezes too).
I'll try ION or Xiaomi.eu in the coming days.
Meanwhile what about changing kernel? Any good recommendations please?

for me changing kernel isnt a game changer
its all about SOT, screen brightness for sure and good working deep sleep.
Screen is biggest power consumer.
Kernel maybe change covernor and undervolt cpu. sure this brings a lil power. but trust me it makes just a very lil differece. u cant compare ur drain because ur usage isnt same.
if wanna judge a kernels power consumtion u have to do all the same.
watching 2 hours youtube, play same game aso with same screen brightness with same wifi state aso.
i bet theres no "big" difference.

I'm currently on Pixel and I can make 4h SOT in 2 days. I don't play games or use YouTube. Just phone calls, whatsapp, browser, emails and I'm always on dual sim.
With stock MIUI I used to reach 5-6h SOT in 2 days so with my personal usage Pixel is worse in battery life compared to stock MIUI.
I'm thinking of trying something like Xiaomi.EU now since it's based on MIUI stock...
As i say, for me there are just few differences in battery life from rom to rom.
Miui is slow and bloated compared to non miui based custom rom.
When u just installed new rom u have more drain cause of trying out the rom. U have more usage compared to ur old rom. Lets get rom settle for a while before judge.
At least all rom take power. All rom need display. I think display always takes same power in every rom when u got same brightness.
At home in ur wlan mostly watching YouTube u get better battery (maybe under 8% per hour drain maybe less) than navigating in the sun with mobile data (cost 12% per hourand more) battery

I'm with you however I'm currently on Xiaomi.eu 11 (debloated) and battery backup is much better than Pixel. I hit 6h SOT on the first run, expected to improve in the coming days after a few charging cycles.
Same usage, the exact same apps running.
Hello,
I've switched to Pixel Experience some days ago and while the ROM works very smoothly I mus say that battery lasts MUCH less than before.
I see that only using the Nova Launcher to scroll pages and apps means -15% battery in a day, and so browsing the web with Firefox for Android (these two apps, while I was with the stock ROM, practically didn't show in the battery usage statistics).
Is anyone aware of issues with the battery? Is there anything I can do (apart from trying to wait for the september update or trying to wipe all and restart?
Thanks
already fixed xd
