I have been using the OP6 for a while and tbh OOS is great (I use it with RZ Kernel and a few Magisk audio mods)
But everytime I update the phone, I got some kind of soft brick and every time I need to use MSMdownload to fix, tried how others update and still got the problem. Updating to 9.0.6 and still have that problem so I'm thinking about going the custom ROM route.
My main concern is battery life (and preferably OOS camera too cuz I need the Pro mode) and stable enough to be a daily driver. As for the battery, I'm getting estimated 6hr30m SOT average for 100% calculated base on the SOT of 60% drain and Accubattery give me 2870mAh (87%) for battery capacity (I know it may have been proven to be inaccurate but I want to give as much info as I can)
I hope anyone can give me the combo you are using and your SOT (I do understand that it's based on the how you use the phone) and whether you game or not. Or at least how to update without bricking my phone cause this A/B system is driving me mad.
Currently considering Havoc, Syberian, Treskmod/Omni but can't test them all cause I need a stable phone to work everyday.
Thanks a ton!
With oos i always had SOT 4 hours/4:30 (gaming, whatsapp, youtube, twitter, klwp etc) stock rom, stock kernel (don't know how but there's people that can reach 8 hours SOT), standby till 2 days (no usage)
Now i'm with havoc from two months and the battery is giving me same SOT and same standby but i'm with havoc and blue_spark kernel and i'm decrypted (don't think this last one is really influencing over battery), havoc is the best rom you will ever find here for this phone, it's super stable and super fast but not with its stock kernel so try smurf or blue spark. I've even tried so many other roms (aospExtended, lineageos, pixel experience, omnirom, liquidremix, aosip, carbonrom) but none of this it's better than havoc in my opinion.

Howdy folks,
New OnePlus One user, coming from a Galaxy S3 after years of holding out on an upgrade.
Looking to keep the phone reasonably stock for now (although some of those custom ROMs sure look tempting!) so I've decided to stick with CM12 (which is what I believe it came loaded with) until the OTA to CM13.
But I'm finding the battery life a bit tough to swallow - I'm getting about 60-80 minutes SOT with a total battery life of about 8-9 hours (email checks, browsing the web 3-4 times a day, one GPS check daily) before I hit 5%. Ideally I'd like to have 100-120 minutes SOT with a total battery life of 16-18 hours before I have to charge.
So I'm thinking an underclocked kernel may be the way to go. Problem is - I'm not sure which kernel is even compatible with CM12 at this point, or what would fit my needs, as everyone seems to have moved on to CM13 already, and I'll be honest with you all - I feel lost.
Can anyone suggest a path to better battery life through kernel?
Thanks in advance!
Go back to CM11S. 8 hours sot on Wi-Fi, slightly less on mobile data. No new features are worth the crippled battery life. All roms after 4.4, both custom and official are plagued by the mobile radio active bug and it hasn't been fixed yet. So stick to 4.4 stock and you will get mind-numbing battery life.

Thanks for the advice, but I'm looking to try an underclocked kernel first on CM12 before I downgrade. Besides, with CM13 around the corner that should help with battery life, no?

underclocking doest do anything when the phone itself doesnt sleep. I'm on CM13 nightlies and doze doesnt work half the time, the other half battery drain is just insane from all kinds of sources (Cyanogen System and mobile radio active). I've had this phone for a year and a half now and I've tried all the roms and kernels one can try but nothing so far has come even close to any 4.4 rom. Again, if you want the newest features and don't give a damn about battery life over extended periods, if you don't spent more than 4~ hours per day staring into your phone, if you charge daily, go for any rom you want. If you want a dependable phone that could keep you going for even 4~ days on a single charge with moderate usage (messages, light browsing, bit of gps) then go for a 4.4 rom. Preferably stock CM11S.

Okay, thank you for your input. Doesn't really answer what I'm looking for, but I guess I'll keep it in mind.
Update - decided to stray from stock and loaded Sultan's CM12 ROM - currently have 3.5 hours SOT and 20 hours total with 40% left. That's good for me!
my phone battery is draining at idle . like i left my phone at 49 percent at night when i woke up cheak it was 29% i thot that is an battery issue so yesterday i replace my old battery with new one bt results are same please jelp me out or tell me which rom should i use to fix this
I will suggest Ressurection remix rom
Ressurection remix with latest 7.1 also have huge battery drain problem, dont use if you need long battery.
Same thing with me
please help.me guys
besides stock EUI rom, AOKP MM has the best battery life and stability. only downside is bluetooth audio does not work. im testing out MIUI 8 but battery does not seem that good.

My Le1S displays the same erratic battery behaviour...It all started after the 19s update...Don't know whether it was a coincidence and if I have a software or hardware issue...Battery charged to 100% - would then drop to 40% within a few hours - then jump to 20% in another 1 hour - and then would start discharging at the rate of 1% every second and finally shut down...I tried every battery calibration method mentioned on this forum; did a factory reset numerous times; nothing helped...
For long, I've been thinking of downgrading to EUI 14s using one of the links in the Leeco forum...Am even thinking of flashing the 23s chinese version another link...
This was a beautiful when I had bought it...Not sure why things took such a downturn that now it has become a nightmare...I literally have to keep it connected to a charger most of the time...Pls let me know if you find a solution for this issue and if a battery change helps you...If nothing works, I am planning to move to the Redmi Note 4 soon...
The issues come from the source used i believe. Every nougat rom has battery drain. Every non-EUI based marshmallow rom has bt audio issue. Don't know issues with lollipop ones. EUI roms i have used all have this notifications issue, sometimes phone wont receive any even if every battery saving feature is disabled.
Best marshmallow roms for those who don't care about Bluetooth audio, AOKP and AICP. I would gladly go back to EUI, even miui or flyme, without those notifications and Bluetooth issues.
Use the CM 13 ROM (either LOS 13 from the xda forum or the cm 13 by bule from bbs.ydss.cn) which gives the best standby time even with all apps running in the night the battery drain is about 1 to 3% all night. I use the eui 26s rom which battery backup is also good I have no issue like you mentioned.
It's amazing how much we actually use our phones in a given day, especially when we watch "videos"! Rate this thread to express how many hours of screen-on time you can get on the Xiaomi Mi 5s before depleting the battery.
Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!
With LOS you can get 6-7 SOT, and I consider that very good.
On average I get 5 hour sot. I would give 3/5 for battery.
It's indeed about average for its class. But the quick-charging makes up a for a hell lot.
9 hours so far. Not bad I'd say. I'm using the official AICP ROM, battery set to efficiency, not rooted.

The fingerprint scanner is working fine on aicp bro?
With Miui 9? I can't do better than 3h 30m.
I tried beta, stable, RR. Situation is always the same.
With GSam when i call, sot is increase, but in Miui settings sot are less, why?
(sorry, if you don't understand, i try to write better)
MIUI 9.3 by xiaomi.eu 8.2.1 I get usually 6-7 hours SoT (mixed LTE and WiFi, auto brightness), I think it's pretty good

I am using the same rom. Unfortunately, I only get like 2-3 hours of SoT. Do you do a system reset every time you flash? Cause I've been upgrading the phone for a while now. Seems battery life gets worse and worse.

I did a clean flash 3 weeks ago, first flashed China Dev Fastboot, flashed TWRP, then xiaomi eu, wipe everthing without wiping system partition. After this, every update i clean dalvik and cache, that's all. Maybe you need to do similar procedure in your phone or your battery needs replacement, I reccomend Losoncoer's one, my mum is using their battery in Mi5.
Hello to everyone and i'm sorry for necroposting,
I have a problem with my MI 5s, i took with my rom (MIUI Global 8.4.19) and stock kernel only 2 hours of SoT, do you have some suggest for me for have better performance(no problem to change ROM or Kernel)? (when i bought this phone i had 6/7 hours of SoT) , i have already changed my battery with an original one 2 weeks ago.
Thanks.
Install AEX with the latest China beta firmware, Magisk and the app ForceDoze.
Thanks for reply, but I can't install china stable because in that rom there isn't my language (Italian), any other suggest? Those apps work with global too?

Thanks for suggest, i have istalled all of this, i hope that the battery will last like the first months!
Hi,
After one year of usage my Mi5s gets around 3 hours of SoT. Doesn't matter which ROM I am using (RR, Atomic, Viper, LoS, XiaomiEu) plus latest firmware. I think the battery may be depleted. If this is the case this is kind of sad.
Those of you that are getting more than 5h of SoT: How old is your phone?
Does anyone have any recommendation for a new battery from aliexpress?
Thanks

You can test your battery and find out your real battery capacity with AccuBattery. (Get the free version from Google Play.)
I have 89% capacity (~2850Mah) and I have my phone since September 2017.
On AEX 5.5 rom, I get about 4.5 hours of screen on time.
1 year and a few months later. Now Replaced the Battery.
1 year and a few months later. Now I just replaced the Battery. I replaced it with a new one because battery is depleted Accubattery estimation is 1,880mah from 3,100mah. I get 2hrs-3hrs 30min of Screen on Time with the old battery. I will update this reply once I get what my battery SoT is with the new one. I am using LineageOS nightly(latest).

So, how did it went?
Battery Perfomance before and after flashing a Custom Rom!
Flashing a custom rom and used a different rom Everday or week can harmful your battery in phone, this happend to me before when i'm always flashing a new custom rom like aex aosip, havoc and pie, everyday, or week in my redmi 5A and then in 2 month my battery get worse than before, i just can sot 6-7h only, before the problem happend i can sot 10-11h.
The Problem is always flashing a rom and cause hardware got a big problem or sick. I Have done with calibrate my battery, but it still bad. I also make a look and conclusion for my friends phone and after all of them always flashing a custom rom, battery got a drain problem and cannot sot 7-8h again just 5-6h and this totally are bad for us to keep flashing and hack our phone system.
Now i'm using a redmi 4x about 5-6 month, i don't unlock my bootloder and never flashing a custom rom, because the cause of hardware problem after used many rom.
Now i can get 11-12 h sot, do you trust it??
I also never push the update for miui, just use old miui version. Because it also will cause drain problem for our battery life.
In conclusion, just used our phone carefully, don't going to mad, making your phone like iphone 6+ because your phone are miui and are xioami phone.?
I have a GM1913
Looking for an Android 10 based custom rom that has particularly good standby/SoT. It needs to be stable and relatively bug-free to be used as a daily driver
Nice to have:
> Gapps not preinstalled
> Launcher that has removable search bar
> NOT preinstalled with a lot of custom apps
I dont care about:
> Updates
> Performance (as long as its not slower than stock)
> Super extensive customization options
I appreciate all suggestions, but PLEASE provide complete information like any custom kernals and apps you are using that does not come pre-applied with said custom rom. I am looking for good standby/SoT that is directly attributable to the rom and not what has to be done after installing the rom.
Thanks
try carbon rom
You get nothing like stock SOT on custom roms. Use search feature since ur nitpicky and try different roms urself. It's a much better/fun experience than you making a thread about asking since ur learning on the way. Usage is different from person to person, also everyone have different taste. You can't find the perfect one until you tried them all. Since I have already been a little hard on you I'm going to answer your question my way. If I would use anything other than stock on this phone these days it would be EvolutionX for decent performance and enough features to make it stand out from other. Pixel Experience for the maximum Pixel-feeling if I just want to feel relaxed and at the same time do unrooted. Otherwise stock it is, you will go back sometime later, since it just can't be beaten. Good luck.

I get 9-12 SOT with RR and Havoc roms and perfect standby. I can leave phone off charger at night and loose only 1% or less of battery
I second Ressurection remix. It's the 1st custom rom I've flashed. Battery life seems to be on par with stock oos imo.

Ice Bear gets the exact same SOT on RR @1440p forced 90hz and the same standby drain of 1% overnight. The OnePlus 7 Pro also stays very cool compared to on OOS 10. Such a feat was possible on OOS 9.
