In mid-January I've bought a Redmi Note 6 Pro Blue 3GB / 32GB. My idea was to use it mostly for music (Spotify and Google Play Music) and video (Netflix and IPTV streaming) as a secondary phone. I was so happy with its battery life and overall performance in the first couple of weeks that I even considered using it as my main phone. However, after less than two months of very irregular use, the phone's battery life dropped quite drastically.
I tried a factory reset yesterday, but the issue remains. AccuBattery estimates the battery health at 19% of the advertised 4000 mAh. Do I have a defective battery? Because this certainly does not look like a software issue - I also tried removing all the apps I could to ensure there is no battery hoarder eating away my battery's juice, including most MIUI software through the adb tools I've seen recommended in a thread here and no luck. It's probably even worse than before. What should I do?
I'm running the latest MIUI Global 10.2 stable 10.2.2.0 (OEKMIXM). No root, bootloader is locked.

^ One and a half hours of battery life after charging it up to 100% post-factory reset. 15min after this screenshot, the battery is at 9%. How is this possible on a phone purchased less than two and a half months ago?

[Q] After flashing Franco Kernel, "Android OS" uses more battery % than my screen.
I'm on a Galaxy Nexus and I've been trying to get my battery to last a full 24 hours. I bought the Hyperion 3800mah extended battery but it is still not cutting it. I've been using my school day as a way to measure how much I use my phone. On a good day, I leave my school with about 50% battery left, and my phone is dead by 8 or 9pm. With a regular battery I would be happy, but not with this 3800mah, god no.
I'm new to the Android scene, Galaxy Nexus was a huge step up from my crummy enV touch. So it was kinda nerve racking to start flashing kernels. But I did it. I got the app from Franco and flashed his newest kernel. Ever since then, my "Android OS' listing in the battery section of my phone has dramatically increased.
Here is what I mean about Android OS being a battery hog:

This is a screen shot of Bettery Battery Stats, I have some crazy high percentages going on under kernel wake locks, I've tried looking them up and no one has given me a strait answer...any ideas?
Its kind of funny that I still got like 12 hours of battery. Probably the 3800mah coming through.
If any of those things has to do with music, I did listen to music on my phone for about an hour today. Just fyi.
Thank you!!!
Bump. Please, anyone. Ideas? D:
2nd Bump...I still have this problem... D:
I'm also getting this problem on a nexus 4 with Android 5.1.1. After flashing Franco.kernel, I've been losing battery faster than usual. I flashed it to gain in battery life. Any ideas?
I'm experiencing sudden batter drain on my Pixel XL, which I've had for almost 12mo w/o issue.
I unplugged my phone from the charger this morning (at 98%) and switched on battery saver mode when I arrived at work, which I've been doing daily. Normally, this results in having around 80% (or more) by lunch time, but I glanced over at my phone around 1130 and was surprised by what I saw (53%). I barely used the phone today and the battery percentages for usage don't seem to add up. The only new app I've installed is AT&T Global WiFi, which was installed on Saturday (12/23), with no noticeable issues. I'm preparing to leave the country in a couple of days so any helpful advice/thoughts would be greatly appreciated.

It's the att app. Go read the reviews for it, sort by most recent.
My bet is that it is hammering your location services while you are inside at work.
I have had this problem for quite some time... however I always thought it was completely normal until... I noticed it is not. I read many reviews about this phone found that I should be getting around 5 to 6 hours which seems amazing but completely out of reach. I switched from an old iPhone 6 which made this seem like much better battery life. I used to get a bit more battery life but now not anymore. I am rooted and have tried many methods but all have failed. I am running a close to stock ROM called 'The Galaxy Project' which I like having. I have wanted to post this for quite some time. I charge my phone overnight and need it for the whole day, however it dies at half of the day. I have:
- Always on display off
- Screen res on 720P
- Bluetooth off when I don't need it
- Easy turn on is off
- Mtweaks is set to be a balanced power consumption
- Greenify is running on many apps
- Battery health is approx 84% which is said to be 'good'.
Sometimes I manage around 2 hours and 30 mins but this hasn't been happening very often recently.
Feel free to ask any questions... I have read many forums and none have seemed to help!! I really want to fix this problem.

Good morning guys.
Pls try this app and share your battery health status
https://drive.google.com/file/d/1FapuK6Pn4hF_JtjP5P2RNdN2q-EmpSn2/view?usp=drivesdk
I have my phone 11 months now and it shows 78%.
Yesterday I tried accubattery pro and it showed 85%
All this time I charged phone with slow 1amper charger and maybe 4-5 with warp charge.
Is it normal?
Thank you

Those things are not entirely accurate. For example blp699 that is the battery for this phone has 15.40wh that is 4000mah times average voltage of 3.85. But even these aren't entirely accurate, because the voltage rises as you charge the battery from let's say 3v or 3.3 to 4.4v.
When you charge the phone on a charger, the average voltage becomes 5v +- a few milivolts. So if you get the rated 15.4wh of the battery and you divide it by let's say 5 volts you get 3.08 Ah or 3080mah.
This math is done without involving heat disipation from the phone and charger, and whatever current is lost from the fact that maybe your device is powered on.
Use the oneplus diagnostic app. It shows the battery health like iphones.

I made a mistake to my battery.
I'd like to see what did i lose, can you share your battery usage screenshot.
What i did bad to my battery :
Charging while video recording by mistake, did i kill the battery?
I have Xiaomi 12s ultra, i was extremely happy with battery life. One evening camera was recording while charging by mistake, when i wanted to check, it was 35>56 in 40 minutes, and phone battery charging was very slow because it was unbelievable...

Ask other users to post their battery usage screenshot remains very relative, indeed for absolute precision, it would be necessary that you use the same rom and especially with the same settings and that you use, for example, Chrome on the same duration, same for other apps.
Note that Wifi consumes more than data for certain uses.
Wi-fi Vs Mobile Data Battery Drain: Do Mobile Batteries Drain Faster On Mobile Data Than On Wi-fi?
Mobile data drains more battery than Wi-Fi because a continuous cellular connection needs to be maintained constantly with towers quite far away.

Seems like there is not a big problem. I'm sure it was bad in the first days. Xiaomi 12s ultra has a battery management chip, which is said to be repairing cells. It is doing what it says i think. Well done Xiaomi engineers. 5:30 SOT from morning to night with lte most of the day is simply amazing.
