Huge system battery drain - Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Questions & Answers

So I left my phone at around 90% yesterday night with both WiFi and data turned off with no apps running it background and when today I woke up all my battery was drained. I did some research and people suggested to delete google play cache etc which I did. I am still wondering about the real culprit and the reason behind this.View attachment 4582529

See if your CPU cores are maxed out using this app (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.cpuid.cpu_z&hl=pt_BR). Post a screenshot from the first screen.

You have the same problem that I had. (Not bad as yours...). As you can see, all the core clocks are at maximum speed, draining battery. The solution is to change the 'scaling governor' from 'interactive' to 'ondemand'... But to do so you need to unlock bootloader and root the device. I did this last night and my battery is fine now.
You could also delete the cache+data from google play services, and reboot your phone (turn wifi off!). You will not have the problem anymore (but if you switch the Wifi back 'ON' it will come back after a while).
See more abou this problem in the thread: https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-a2/help/frequency-sd660-stuck-maximum-t3832366

I see..well this sucks..this was not the usual case before, can you show me what a normal CPU profile looks like ?
also will this void my warranty if I root & unlock BL but not flash a custom ROM etc?

The normal cpu in iddle looks like the SS i've attached... It should increase clock when you're actually doing stuff, but, if the phone is iddle it should go back to the 'lowest' setting, which is what is currently in my SS.
And it will probably void warrenty, but I'm not sure... Good luck!

I am really surprised we are facing this issue even after having Android One. Wish I had waited and gone for Poco.

This issue was happening in pixel 2 as well, months ago... There are people here in the forum that own this device and does not have the problem... So maybe we're unlucky?

Go in the 'CPU' tab and change the 'scaling governor' from 'interactor' to 'ondemand' (you need to apply this in two itens, each item control 4 cores - its under the section "Big Governor" and "LITTLE governors") then reboot device.
Use cpu-z to confirm if the value was indeed changed.

Quick solution is to reboot. Fixes the issue but it gets triggered again! Submit a ticket on the feedback app.. a lot of people are affected by the CPU maxing out

It is just $50 more expensive and is available in India. No BS.
Xiaomi doesn't even reply to people or keep them updated like OnePlus does about the current issues and ETA of OTA.

A2 is like 230$ and poco is over 400 on gearbest for example. OnePlus yes sure they reply but they are lying all the time.

+1 , this sucks!!!

Poco will have their own bugs, don't worry.
this is Xiaomi world, good hardware, good price & lot of bugs.

I'm curious as why in CPU-Z, my processor is labeled as SD636 2.21ghz but the model is 660.

As for the cpu frequency, mine was like that until I stopped using the fingerprint and switched to trusted face.
It didn't get stuck ever since.
Now it discharges by 12% per hour without games, give it a try :good:

Need help, big issues

Hello, fellas, I bought the E6553 and it was updated to 32.2.A.0.253, I disabled the bloatware that I'm not using, but the phone is heating too fast and too much even when only being here in XDA labs. The screen brightnes is like half, and I can almost cook eggs on my E6553, I get 50k on Antutu... is a factory reset an option, or should I make a PC Companion repair?
Will someone help me ?
This phone heats up and it's quite normal. You can try many options but the best one is to get rid of it.
I've got mine as gift so don't have invoice and warranty card so cannot sell it easily.
Or
You can try underclock the cpu. Further check the Rev of phone on the box. Mine is Rev 2 and it's gets hot easily. Rev 5 is said be cool one.

I'm considering flashing fresh new ftf from flashtool, but will this make atleast a little bit differense at all?
By the way, my phone came with 6.0.1 installed, with chinese language and Z5's dark theme, that means that someone has done that, can this be the reason or whatever?
I flashed a stock .ftf, but the bugs are still there, what if I go back to Lollipop ?

Problems with LEeco LE2

I am looking to purchase and make some stuff for this mobile due to it's specs, but, i have seen that many people are complaining faster battery drain in this device after 4-6 months of use. Some of them even complained about clicking noise below touch screen.
Can someone inform me more about this device issues?
As someone who's been using this phone for a while I can tell u that I have faced no such issues the battery easily lasts a day and the drain is rather minimal in standby mode.As for the sound issue it happens only if u try to choke Ur phone to death and isn't an issue for the normal user. The ui and the lack of development are the only 2 downfalls as far as this phone is considered.Hope I was able to clarify your doubts.
I have been using this phone since its launch in India and I haven't got any problem with this phone untill now yes there is little problem with battery backup but that is due to software update and camera quality is average not as they said in their ads and main problem is Eui which is newbie rom so it will take some time to grow rest depends on you to buy the phone or not.
This phone has awesome hardware so there is no lag in gaming or any heavy use(gaming experience is better than moto g4 plus)

Epic drain.

Hello my dear OP3T users. Ive got the phone as of 4th of may (may the 4th be with you), and the battery life was alright (4/5 sot). Its not my first op3, my last op3 fell into a lake the week before that. So here's the problem: suddenly the battery drains epicly. 2 hours sot and i need to recharge again. Android-system + android operating systems are the 2 biggest users. This didnt happen last week. And yes I managed the google play services thing as everyone suggests!
Now what?
Thank you and im sorry for the somewhat crappy English ^^

Well for starters, try going in to the recovery and clear Cache and Dalvik Cache. See if that works. And if that doesn't, then you always have the nuke option, download a full ISO for OOS and flash it to fully reset your device. (You can also simply reset through the recovery but flashing OOS all over again might fix any faulty firmware)
Check out the link in my signature. It should give you some ideas.

Black Screen of Death BSOD

Announcement: Maybe we are close to a software solution
Dear Friends,
my HM2014813 has several problems:
On some AOSP roms I get BSOD: When screen gets locked and black, I can't turn it on unless I remove and reinsert battery.
On LineageOS PowerOFF does not work properly. Ends in a situation like BSOD
After booting into TWRP the touchscreen is unresponsive. I have to lock and unlock, to get response.
I think I'm not alone with this problem. Most of us get recommendations like that: Replace Screen
This problem is not present in every rom. So there should be a solution without hardware modification. What else can we try?
For reference here are the HM codes: source
Redmi 2 1/8GB & 2/16GB/Prime = HM2014811 / 17/18/21 (wt88047)
Redmi 2 A / Enhanced = HM2014812 / 13/16 (wt86047)
Redmi 2 Pro = HM2014819
Before I continue, I'd like to remind you that Redmi 2A is a china-only phone, the chipset isn't Qualcomm based, but Leadcore based. My fellow friends that I know that have a WT86047 aren't Redmi 2A's. They're running Qcom and have no signal loss in my country.
I picked WT88047, but honestly I've seen them in all of those variants (except Redmi 2A variants). I have 4 friends that bought 2016's batch of shipped RM2 (Prime or just RM 2). These friends of mine didn't buy at the same place, 2 of them bought it online and the 2 others bought it from a local vendor (not an official Xiaomi store). From those 4 friends of mine, 2 of my friends got the HM2014813 (WT86047), one got HM2014818 (WT88047) and the last one got a HM2014811 which is the same as mine.
All of them (including me) faced the same bugs (BSOD, screen freezing, TWRP not working). So it's not just a specific variant of RM2, but all of them. Hypothetically (CMIIW) all RM2's that are shipped at 2016 above nearly all of them have this bug (unless you bought it from an official Xiaomi store, which is pretty much hard to find, because Xiaomi don't show, even sell, old phones). 2 of my friends sold their devices, one friend of mine sticked it with it's current case and stayed on stock MIUI & my last friend (with the HM2014813 - WT86047) followed my lead by changing his screen with an official screen that he got from a relative that has an unused RM2, bought from an official vendor. Now me and him can go custom rom or modding all we want without those old bugs that used to plague our phones.
So to the RM2's batch 2016 are all shipped with bad and faulty hardware parts. Mostly nearly of them are faulty sensors. Or maybe those RM2's that are shipped are refurbished RM2's that are given bad parts or maybe bad LCD screens. Like I said before in my previous posts about this, It's the sensors. They are totally bugged. I don't know what made them that way. Why I said it was the sensors? Because my old front sensors got changed when I checked it with a system specs app. My local part vendors sell RM2 LCD's and when you buy a LCD, it's a whole package, you can't by per-parts (unless you disassemble them one buy one). What I mean "it's a whole package" is if you buy an LCD, you will get the touchscreen and front sensors with it. If it's not the sensors, maybe it's the touchscreen (just using my logic here)
I don't know about fixes and stuff (without having to do hardware modif). I'm not a developer, I don't understand that much about BLOBs and shims. Well let's hope someone who's a developer and has a RM2 with those bugs show up with a fix so that people don't have to do any hardware modifications on their bugged RM2's.

Well custom roms are for modification, so If you're not impressed with how the music sounds like in custom roms, you could always just install a mod for it. There's Viper4Android, Dolby Digital Plus, AM3D Zirene, etc. Just find what you need, flash the mod per instructions you need and voila, you've got better music in you're custom rom. Installing these sound mods even work well in MIUI. You've got dozens of Camera apps that may (or maynot) go better on in custom roms than MIUI. Just saying though, if you love MIUI it's fine to stay on MIUI.
For those who has the same problem, try enabling portable hotspot. It solve the problem for me, but yes, it'll also drain your battery faster

I tried it once when my device was still having those bugs. It doesn't work. At all.
I had two redmi 2 online and both had the BSOD issue. It didn't matter which MIUI version it was on, it can still get triggered into the BSOD.
This is the procedure that triggers it.
1.Start an app that generates a lot of objects
2.Keep the device with the app until the back is warm/hot
3.Exit from the app or click home
4.Now quickly press the side power button to turn off screen
5.Redmi Black Screen and cut off from power even if you had music app on.
I have concluded that it might be a hardware issue since I had test another none online redmi 2 with these redmi 2 with the same MIUI version. What should triggered the same effect did not affect the none online redmi 2.
Perhaps using a soft lockscreen button might be able to avoid this issue.
Mine starts getting this problem after I changed the display (bought cheap from aliexpress). Never had a single problem before, while now miui is the only rom that works

Then you should thank the devs for pulling this one off. Either they've tweaked or fixed what created the bug or because Android Oreo doesn't communicate with device drivers the same way as it's predecessors. Thanks for testing Oreo and latest Lineage. I'll recommend these to my other pals that are still bugged with BSoD. Cheers :highfive:

LineageOS 14.1 for MI MAX 2 (oxygen) by xuefer

Hi since we have a couple of Lineage roms i personaly prefer the one by xuefer becasue the battery life seems much better for me.I also wanted to see if we can fix the few things that need fixing like ir sensor and some security updates let me know what you think and if you have any fixes for this rom.Who know xuefer may return and suprise us with a update no offence to Ashwin he has done a great job of his rom some will follow this rom and some Ashwins.ANy fans of xuefers please come and help fix the final pieces of the jigsaw and make this rom perfect.

I am completely with u. With IR blaster in xuefer i wouldn't have changed to the Ashwins lineage, which is good too, and he did a respectfull super job, but battery is weaker, drains faster. However, i don't know what safety violation on GPL was meant to be....... In xuefers. Nevertheless i am the only Person with headphone Jack problems in lineage. I would go back to xuefers, if ir-Blaster is fixed.If battery in Ashwins gets better, and no headphone jack probs i would stay with Ashwins,cause of ir-Blaster, which has great function.
Thy, Ray

If Ashwin he can help us out that would be great news but i won't blame him if he don't a simple flashable .zip to flash in twrp would be great for the fixes.
Out standing issues
1) hspda+ 3g not showing when mobile data on
2) IR not working
3) Latest security updates
Found the fix for hspda+ 3g fix in the original thread.

admittedly, i havent tested the ashwin los yet. havent gotten around to setting up my phone completely anew, since i always prefer to do clean installs in order to avoid any potential issues.
then again, the only two reasons for switching would be the IR Blaster and updated security patches. So far, thats not yet enough for me to bother everything just works well at the moment, so lets see whats up in the near future...

Same here if was to go official i woul probly change but not at the moment the batterylife on Xuefers is just insane sleeps like a baby 0 drop over night.Besides Xuefer could decide to come back and then we would have some competition on our hands.
Anyone wish to increase battery life, sure check out root booster by Dominik on playstore. I have seen a huge improvement and I am using extreme mode battery boost. I am currently on lineage is by Ashwin(12/03). Using for last couple of hours.
Avg battery use: 1.9%/ hr
Sot: 3.6 %/ hr
Further I am using Greenify aggressive doze and few kernel tweaks.

judging from the available options its basically a kernel manager with inbuilt greenify. so....kernel adiutor and greenify do exactly the same as far as i can see
Yes but you shouldn’t have to use all these apps Xuefers like i say sleeps like a baby.

once its properly configured, definitely and using greenify/kernel adiutor doesnt hurt, hibernation and kernel tweaks squeeze out a bit more battery life

other than the battery life, is there any other plus side in switching to xuefer's version?
and what are the other issues in xuefer's rom?
am currently on ashwins. just waiting to have some free time to flash xuefer's rom, out of curiosity.
I'm actually looking for a rom that I will use for long term. I just don't have the time to keep on flashing roms. Will find out that's stable and use it for months
xuefers sleeps like a baby because his ROM uses "these apps" - Brevent.
Brevents is kinda similar thing to Greenify....
I use Greenify on Ashwins 12/03 build and it sleeps like a happy baby!
