Battery drain issue - Xiaomi Redmi Note 6 Pro Questions & Answers

Is it me or when screen is off this phone still drain noticable amount of battery like 5% in 3:30hrs. P. S. No app is running in background. The battery usage shows xiaomi service framework and google taking 20% of battery total.
Edit : just saw on standby mode - radio battery drain is using up my battery, any fix for this?

I was also getting a 7 - 8% overnight battery drain which was unacceptable, however, I used the adb debloat tools to remove most of the shady systen apps that xiaomi pre-installs on the device and after that the drain doesn't happen at all. My phone sleeps like a baby with only 1 - 2 % drain overnight.

Is there a way to determine which miui tools are the ones draining the battery?

What drains your battery the most?

For some reason my screen started really draining the heck out of my battery and it's only set on about 35% brightness.
Here are my current stats:
Screen - 65%
Wifi - 14%
Call Standby - 10%
Phone Idle - 9%
Android - 2%
What are your stats? Is the screen eating the battery? Any ideas how to fix this?
Thanks in advance.

That looks usual
When my screen is on my battery drains about 1% per minute.
What is your max cpu speed?
Bad battery?
Those stats look normal for the most part, but it also depends on how long the screen was on vs how long the phone was on overall.
Cell standby appears a bit high at first glance, which definitely causes some additional drain if you don't have reception during standby and the phone is searching for reception.
RE:
Hey,
I am running MIUI ROM 2.6.15
Screen 25%
WiFi 20%
Cell Standby 17%
Android System 16%
MediaServer 7%
Phone Idle 7%
Music 4%
Gmail 3%
Media 2%
Google Services 2%
I used the built-in Battery Calibration to calibrate the battery like last week and I noticed that by the end of the day, I still had at least 30% of battery...
I use it to text, listen to music and talk everyday at night at least 3-4 hours with my girl...
I'd suggest to root phone, try a new rom, or use any calibration apps from play store and follow the instructions... worked with my 2 previous phones.. Huawei Ascend, Motorola Droid 2 Global.. and this is 6th android I have and I love it a lot.
The screen is set to 25%. It's only on for about 45 minutes.
I have rooted the phone and am running a very new rom.
i'm pretty much in the same position, my battery drains 1% per minute
I'm on T-Mobile and their "My Device" app will let you know if you need to replace the battery or not. Give it a try.

Are you running an ICS ROM? They seem to be so efficient at everything else that the screen is the major battery sucker. I've played PSX4Droid for a couple hours at a time, and it barely gets above 10% usage.
I run 2.3.4 virtuous unity. I can make it 24 hours before I charge it.
But the screen is the highest user of battery.

2.3.4 GB here but i honestly say the games and watching videos takes a toll on battery the most.
I used to have awful battery life on ICS and was able to narrow it down to the amazon app store....using like 35% battery.<--disappointing amazon! After uninstalling that I can get about 2-3 hours of screen time. If you're having terrible battery life after flashing a new rom you could try caliberating your battery. I use battery caliberation. When my battery is fully charged I run it, let it drain all the way down then charge it back up. There are probably other caliberation apps out there...or you could delete the battery stats from your recovery. Hope this helps.
edit: just noticed you're talking about Gingerbread, my bad, kinda skimmed over that Caliberating your battery could still help though.

You have no cell signal?
Had cell signal all day
Don't get me wrong ,battery life is great so far today on 43% and had 3hrs 20 mins SOT,just strange to see phone idle at the top of the list
I'm having the same issue. Idle Phone drain definitely goes away when I turn on airplane mode but I haven't tried turning off WiFi yet. I transferred all of my settings and apps from a Pixel 2 XL that had no issues with power consumption.
99% after 8 hours idle overnight
stock ROM
unrooted
If I had to take a guess, some app is draining your battery.

Dispute this still getting great battery life with 5/6 hrs SOT
Is there any app that can help identify what is causing phone idle to drain the battery
Latest stats
Idle drain

Cannot identify the cause of high battery drain.

I have a Huawei Mate 10 pro and have been using it for about 9 months.
I used to have amazing battery life with close to 8-9 hours of SOT ( and still had like 20% remaining never really went too low).
Recently I have been getting a battery drain of over 20% per night even if the phone is in doze mode.
I tried every method of finding out the battery drain and could not find it, assuming its a system bug i reset the phone but it did not fix anything.
I have wifi scanning and data always on turned off , so it disconnects mobile data and wifi if the phone is not being used.
I have just factory reset my phone and am posting screenshots of all my battery monitoring.

Please help me identify what is causing this battery drain.

Battery Drain

Hi Guys,
I purchased my Note 10 a month ago. Since I purchased, I am experiencing heavy battery drain at night. Almost 40-50% juice is consumed. I am keeping wifi, mobile network, blutooth and sync off.
Is there any problem with my mobile?
Thanks in advance.

40% standby drain is definitely abnormal, most likely due to a rogue app consuming battery in the background. Install GSam Battery Monitor, run the following adb command to enable a detailed list of battery usage:
adb shell pm grant com.gsamlabs.bbm android.permission.BATTERY_STATS
and see what is consuming battery in the background.

Hi,
Thanks for help. I did found one app which was consuming battery. After disabling it, the power consumption reduced to nearly 25%. Is this normal now? I got 22 hours of battery life yesterday. Attached is the screen shot of battery drain pattern.
25% drain overnight is still way too much, and even though Google Play Services was active for 7.5 hours, it doesn't drain a lot of battery. My overnight drain is ~3%. You still have something consuming a lot of battery in the background. I don't use WhatsApp, so I don't know how much battery it typically uses. But something is definitely not right. If you can't pinpoint what is using so much battery, then do a factory reset and install GSam Battery Monitor but nothing else. Use the phone stock (without any additional apps) for a couple of days and see what your baseline battery drain is. Then install your regular apps one at a time and see how each one affects battery drain. You'll be able to identify which app is causing the problem.

Hi Sublimaze,
I found some more apps which were running in background for no reason. Now the battery drain at night is near to 5% only. I can blame fluctuating network signal in my area for this.
Thanks,

Mi 11 lite (miui 12.5.1) battery drain while idle

Hi all,
My phone drained 14 percent battery yesterday while idle for 9 hours. The interesting thing is when i add the mAh usages that i see in battery and performance tab it only adds up to 6 percent battery usage. ( i calculated and confirmed with time that 40 mah is aproximately 1% battery)
Also this morning i am seeing an unusual drain as well while the screen is on, it drained 5% but it should have draned only 3% because it says it drained 138 mAh.
Does anyone have any idea about this problem?
This also happened 2 weeks ago and the only thing common both days were, i charged my phone slower (charged using usb on the car) instead of using fast charging.
I also leave the screen shots that shows the battery usage.
Put the phone into Airplane mode when idle: this may save some battery.

yes of course but the battery drain I explained sometimes happens I actually think its a battery indicator bug. Because it shouldn't be draining this much battery because it doesn't show any unusual drain on battery information screen contradicting the percentage lost (14% battery was drained but according to battery information screen it should be 6%)
