[Q] Mi4i major performance and heating issues.

Could someone please help me with performance issues on xiaomi mi 4i?
I keep every electronic device in my surroundings well- tuned but this device of mine
hardly gives 34000 score on 64bitantutu benchmark in performance mode, not only poor in
benchmarks but certain games like asphalt 8 even lag like **** on medium settings when on performance mode. Is this a make issue? Should I return this phone to flipkart? Any suggestions? I have maximally optimised this phone especially for running heavy games and that was the sole purpose to purchase it.
I am new to xda developers, and this is my first thread.

I get about 3.9k score on antutu and saw a post here abt someone getting the same score I haven't played that game but its a very high end game I would expect a few lags coz this is not a high end phone also wait for a few updates the recent updates have made the phone laggy for everyone they might fix that

Which miui version are you currently on man?
Also, I got hardly 10gb internal storage free once freshly unboxed the phone.
And there are major stutters on medium settings playing in performance mode itself!!! I have seen people play it on high with ease on this phone.

The latest 6.5.6 ( the most laggy update lol)

I seem to have the issue slightly fixed! This somewhat works for me.
I turned all the animation scales in developer options to 0.5x.
This phone doesn't seem to heat much now in daily usage.
Major stutters seemed to decrease in asphalt 8.
Idk but I am not able to change memory optimization setting in developer options. (It remains on medium anyhow.).

Any other suggestions?

I suppose you confused the mi4 with the mi4i! You have sent the link to the mi4 developer rom. Anyway, I have tried the mi 4i developer ROM and I am now getting 39k on Antutu!!!
Thanks for the suggestion man, no hint of lag at all!!! Also, the device doesn't heat beyond 39°!!!

The Mi4i Still Has Heating Issue With The Developer Version.

Guys update to new version. It you haven't received the OTA, check out this link here. This update is really good. Major changes
http://en.miui.com/thread-129452-1-1.html

I installed 6.6.1.0 by not having tried the previous version, cuz my phone is new. And I'm SHOCKED about the performance of the device! Had a Galaxy S4 i9506 with Snapdragon 800 before which was running WAY more fluid?! Could it really be, that the 615 is THAT much slower and less snappy? Or is this all about the not-so-well-built MIUI6 on this device? I REALLY hoped the MI4I would be a good replacement...

Marshmallow problem??? H955

Hi guys. First sorry for my bad english i learned from video games im greek. I have lg g flex 2 today i upgrade to mm 6.0.1 i install antutu to check score but it was so bad on lolipop i had 64k bad too. Now i saw so much overheating and a little laggy. Can you guys give me a solution to boost mt phone and not overheating as now and boost antutu score? Go back to stock and install root or?

i downgrade from 6.0.1 to 5.1.1 yestday and rooted, and it's feel much better than 6.0.1, my english is so poor...:crying:haha

Did u read all steps in tutorial? u need to wait a few days to let marshmallow to settle and than test it.

Hey i did factory reset but the same and more overheatings lag and etc. Any solution to cool down my cpus temp and less lag . i feel bad about this phone its really beautiful it deserves more

As for me. My phone is much smoother on mm then lollipop rooted and governors. Maybe couple h less battery, but games run much better. Nfs no limits was lagging as hell before. After upgrade it runs decent. Not perfect, but at least twice better than before.

Im not experiencing any overheating problems nor lags,everything is fast,especially compared to 5.1.1. Antutu is however the same as before,nothing really impressive,but i dont care that much. However, what others say that they got SOT about 4 hours,in experiencing SOT 2hrs at max,really often about +/-1h 30min which is really strange and together with small storage only downside of this phone.
To your problem,maybe the OS wasnt installed well or there might be an app that causes this slow down,check it in settings which app takes so much RAM and try to shut it down/uninstall when isnt needed. If that wont help,then all you can do is download KDZ with 5.1.1,load it and then maybe try to reload the 6.0.1. But dont be surprised if you jump from the one app to another that your system slows down,especially with just 2GB RAM it takes when its fully loaded. And heating while gaming is quite normal,every phone does that sooner or later,we are unlucky because of SD 810 it happens sooner.

IF the XZs which is basically XZ is going to be released with 7.1 on April (5th?) then positive side of me would say that 7.1 for XZ also comes then.
Negative side predicts May 2017

Ok so I'm waiting for improved battery and camera

Yes, version .442 is laggy and slower than .417
Especially when trying to delete from sd card.
Some app now can't use sd .
Revert to .417

Mine is not laggy on 39.2.A.0.442 firmware. Yes, it was laggy first day (that is yesterday) but now it is OK.
Use XPERIA Keyboard. I don't have problems with autocorrect.

Thanks guys. I'll wait for Existenz version of the new FW. I hope it is faster

Call logs lag now fixed!!! TNX sony.
I can't say the lag is gone, but scrolling in call phone now is more smoother than before.

Nope not at all for me, it seems they're just pushing security updates, I see no improvements in speed, battery or smoothness since i bought the phone. Especially the phone log lag needs to be fixed, I mean how hard can it be? its exactly the same as the google app which runs very smooth on my Z3!

New firmware update v9.5.20.0.odgmifa

New update out, I received it with OTA.
Changlelog : -System performance optimization
- Bug fixes
I hope low scores in benchmarks have been fixed for everyone and it seems that GBOARD keyboard isn't laggy anymore !

Croatian language added in new update

I still got 170K on AnTuTu and about 3200 on 3dmark slingshot extreme... And I still feel some fps drops in PUBG Mobile (it don't happen on OnePlus 6).

For me its 270k, which is normal for the cpu I guess. But weird that you guys have these smaller scores.

Thanks, I requested the update via de OTA updater and it is downloading now.

That's odd because I read an article on XDA yesterday about frame drops on the One Plus 6. Not a user post--an article by someone with programming knowledge who talked about the poor EAS implementation on the OnePlus 6. But he also specifically mentioned the frame drops on that phone.

Same "issue" was reported by ppl when update from .4 to .19. The solution is to wipe all data. Probably it will work again this time.
I did not get this update until now.

I did the wipe when I was on .19 and benchmarks scores was normal first day and fall again to 2016 flagships scores.

This is a good thing to know because with this information you gave we can be almost certain that it is something with the benchmark program and the ROM. Probably after the first uses something messes up and you will have to keep wiping in order to maitain the scores.

Can anyone confirm that hidden folders in the gallery will be deleted with the Update? I lost one folder...

i have bad perfomance and low score in all benchmarks with 9.5.20.0 global estable i did hard reset and works good one or two day and broken perfomance again, this is a fking ****

broken performance on a SD845 ???
This is just ridiculous!
If you bought this phone just to show your friends who has the highest score...well you´re screwed.
But you can change that....try Miui 10 latest global stable BETA....nothing changes if you ask me as a user...but your eyes will pop out seeing 260tsd+ scores.

Kids... deactivate animation and run useless AnTuTu, than you will get your useless score.

Android Pie GSI

So, there has been released an A/B Partition supporting Pie GSI.
Anyone has installed it yet?
Bug list shows NFC, Hotspot and Android 9 Vendor.
What does the last one mean I have no idea. Some discussion would shed some light here.

I will try to install it today after returning home

Does anybody has installed the Pie GSI? How is it?

I has installed it but got no network , wifi and stuck on second reboot now to back to OOS

I wrote a little guide on Phh's thread on how to get networking, wifi and root to work. However, I would still stay away from it for now as it is extremely buggy.

But people says that HOS is very good in battery, the camera is worse than OOS camera

I am right now using Pixel Experience as daily driver. Unfortunately no magisk, hotspot, nfc, volte.

I've never seen a 10 hr SOT in other Rom. HOS is amazing!

It's good for a daily driver, bro.
An issue is that I got frequent Volte drops which gets okay with a reboot.
And recent thumbnail corresponds to a different screen rather than The one which I have currently( I have no idea if you understood what I told)
Cons : no modifications yet I think, magisk modules , better mods and different kernel aren't readily there for P afaik.
That's the only thing I don't like about this.
Pros : substratum is working
Very stable and consistent battery life. (idk how it manages to give 8 hrs every single time)
And has every Android P features asusual ..
Peace?

I'm on HOS beta 2 too. Yes battery is really not bad when U use device, but on standby its draining a bit too much, I cant reach 8 hours SOT with more then 1 day after charge. But I can reach 8 hours SOT if im using the device constantly.
On OOS i had always 8-9hours of SOT, and 36 hours after charge.. but on OOS I was using elementaX kernel.
Plus hydrogen still in beta so it possible that they going to fix stanby battery a bit.
It dont have all the features of Pie. There is no:
1. App slices/app action
2. Feature when u can share images or copy text via app swicher (recent menu)

I think the second feature is only for pixel devices if I'm not wrong. I had a pixel and it had that feature in the first beta itself. And I did read somehwer that it's exclusive to pixels
Maybe you are right about the standby time. I've never let my phone pass 24 hours mark.

Maybe i am to stupid to flash any pie gsi. I tried many ways, and always end up in a bootloop or in the crashdump mode.
And yes both guides here in the op6 forum.
Tried all gsi out a/b partition. Tried without wiping data (one time worked but acore fc every ms)
So how does someone get it boot without a problem?

It would be a shame then if it only for pixel devices..
But here is possibility that oneplus didn't implemented yet this feature. I hope so
