Hi, I just bought a Mi4, and i'm having problems with the battery on airplane mode, battery goes down about 12-15 % in 8 hours in airplane mode, wich seems too much.
-I've done a clean install of many roms, now i have stock 5.1.23
-I've killed second plane proccesses using greenefy, halt apps with Titanium (mi frameworks)
-I've done a clean fastboot install, without the sim card, with the same battery consuption.
-After checking WakeLockDetector (WLD), it says there is no second plane app consuming battery. Also checked it using Trickster MOD, confirming the phone is in Deepsleep, but anyway the battery is consuming the same.
-I've done a battery calibration with Battery Calibrator.
My phone is black, 16 GB, i've read other users with the same problem, some people say it could be due to the proximity sensor.
Anyone could help? Any idea or way to know what is consuming the battery and how to stop it?
Thanks in advance.
It is a mi4 bug.
Install greenify to increase battery life. This software will close unnecrssary running apps in lock mode.
Let's talk about bug's on the stock MIUI 12 Rom for the Poco F2 Pro (not xiaomi.eu).
First of all app permissions are useless. I block apps like Gearbest to not run in backgroud = I get ads from Gearbest app every day in notification center. I put VPN on autostart, run in background, keep the connection in VPN settings and disable MIUI battery safer for that VPN app = it kills the app sometimes over the day and at night it kills the app instantly after I lock the screen, every time.
WiFi 6 is broken as well. Calls over VoWiFi are broken and sometimes the speed drops down for no reason. WiFi 4 n works perfectly.
Sometimes no icon in status bar, like VPN icon when it's connected, VoLTE I never saw (but it works) and even Google calander is shown the icon in status bar but nothing in notification center (2 times for now).
Haven't noticed any issues myself.
You use VPN and got WiFi6?
Device is awake all the time.
Same, causing overnight battery drain
I lose 1% per 1h at night.
Lose 3% in 8.5 hours (overnight); 0.35% per hour.
Battery stats doesn't work properly
- Dark mode is awful in apps like messenger, messages were white with white text or animations of someone typing were not fully transparent but just white I had to enable dark mode inside app and add app to ignore list for system one.
- Always on Display. I dont understand how schedule works, I set it to 7am-11pm but AOD shows up all the time.

Stand by is fine, drops a maximum of 2-3% for me. But once we start using, miui 12 have terrible battery optimization
for me seems like i get more battery drain, but havent checked yet, but comming from a day of downloading apps back on miui 11 and later update to miui 12 seems like my battery toke a hit..
I was thinking about making a separate "rant" thread about MIUI 12 on the F2 Pro, but since you're all here I might as well share my frustration.
Coming from years of both Samsung One UI and Stock android, I have one big and two small issues with MIUI 12.
Every other android vendor on the planet (probably) has 4 sound modes: Ring, Vibrate and Silent and DND. You would think that there is no need to change that, but Xiaomi apparently had a different opinion.
- Okay, ring works as expected, but the only time my phone is on Ring is when it's in the setup and I can't change it to Vibrate.
- There is no actual Vibrate, there is this Silent thing, which sets the Ring volume to 0 (so.. vibrate) and offers to mute all media sounds...
- Then there is DND which mutes all notifications, doesn't offer to mute media sounds (like Samsung does), restricts visual popups for notification but doesn't stop the screen from lighting up when you get a notification and the phone is locked like WHAT?! I'm out here trying to sleep and this huge 6.7" screen is lighting up like it's a flashlight?
EDIT: they fixed it ?
Speaking of flashlight, and I know this isn't a grand issue, if you're using the new Control Center, you can rearrange the quick tiles at the bottom, but not the 4 at the top. Why? I would love to be able to switch the Mobile Data and WiFi but no.
I love this phone and it's battery. Easily lasts 2 days. But whose idea was it that the battery stats will show only the last 24 hours instead of since last full charge, like everyone else? ?*
12.0.2.0 fix almost nothing.

Pretty much this. Checking using AccuBattery, the device only entered deep sleep for 5 min for the whole day. Thinking rooting the phone to force device enter doze.
12.0.2.0 and I can forget about audio over bluetooth... this is so disgusting, never seen such a bugged phone.
I'm using the POCO F2 Pro Global Version with the MIUI 12 and I have this issue with Twitter.
Push Notifications are enabled in the app, and when I received the number 9 Notification, the new coming Notification will erased the last one.
It limits to 9 Notifications only.
Any solution please?

That's odd I don't have issues with Bluetooth audio on qc35 and wf-1000xm3 and envaya mini haven't noticed any issues.
There are other bugs like video tools styles being blank etc crushed colours on lockscren probably others but I haven't noticed any Bluetooth issues
The update I presume was mainly a security update.

I had no problems, now I can forget to listen music over bluetooth. I try to connect the same TWS with my Mate 20X and no issues, connect again with Poco F2 Pro and same problems. Also reboot the device and pair it again.
Security update is about 80MB, not 400MB. They change also the VoWiFi logo but VoLTE still not fixed (don't show the icon).

What issues are you having with connecting or pairing or looking for headsets or dropped connections when streaming?
Also I've said it's mainly a security update given they've jumped a bit from the initial preparations of miui 12 also some apps got updated along the way.
Can't check VoLTE as my operator doesn't support it.

Hey, guys does anyone else have this problem, my Fossil Sport wont show notifications that I recive on my phone, I have tried setting WearOS app so that MIUI doesn't stop it because of Battery management and my notifications are all set to show ?
I have been using Poco X3 NFC for a week and had been facing the issue of notifications although my Galaxy Active 2 was connected with the bluetooth.
I tried a lot of methods and it seems that the issue has been fixed from last 3 days.
1 - Please switch off battery optimization for all the apps related to your watch and the xiaomi frameworks (you have to do this everytime you restart your phone as the battery optimization automatically changes its settings upon restart)
2- Switch on all the notifications for all the apps for all the times
3- Allow all permissions to the wearable related apps
4- (Most important step which I believe is the key) Go to Settings, write Access Notifications. You will see Wearable and Xiaomi Framework sort of thing. Please allow these both. Once you will allow these both options, hopefully the notifications will start to show. If the notifications switch off, then please deactivate this option and reactive it along with the wearable's own application notification settings (put off and then on)
Mid range phones are interesting buy but they are full of bugs. I have recently shifted to Poco X3 NFC from Note 8.
thanks, hope it works.
just bought POCO X3 NFC I had noticed problems with notifications and therefore I had deactivated energy saving on wearos and nova launcher apps, giving them administration rights. now it is something like 10 days that I can no longer receive notifications on my huawei watch 2 smartwatch and my favourite launcher (Nova).
I reset my watch to factory values and it worked for just over a day, after which it went silent again, it no longer displays my notifications.
Now I will follow your advice, actually the framework did not have access to notifications. we hope well
I bought Poco X3 Indian version yesterday but battery life is horrible.
It dropped by 3% overnight with wifi and data on.(other settings r at default)
In normal usage also (just using whatsapp) it dropped from 86% to 70% in around 5 hours.
Is this normal or should I get it replaced?
Everything is updated to latest available version including MIUI.
Thank you.

You are not very clear about the settings you use, display refresh rate, auto sync, authorization, wake screen for notifications etc. You also have no mentioned the apps you use nor the additional apps you have installed or their settings.
My poco X3 Indian Variant gets 13.8 hours screen on time. Take some time to understand the hidden settings and optimize the settings that determine your battery accordingly.
Here are my top recommendations.
1: Refresh rate 60.
2: Sync Off.
3: Unauthorize system apps.
4: Turn off recommendations in all system apps.
5: Set region to USA.
6: Turn off haptics.
7: Do not use buiit in apps, always use third party for browser, launcher, video etc.
8: Turn off WiFi scanning (separate option from WiFi) and turn off GPS.
9: Turn off wake screen for notifications.
10: Remove any pre installed bloat.
I lose 1% battery overnight from 10pm to 8am. WhatsApp usage is around from 100% to 92% in five hours. So your values are normal and it is not a defect. Just adjust your settings one by one and you should be fine.

Thanks for the reply
Display is at 120hz
Sync is on
GPS is off
Bloatware is removed except for the system apps
Wake up on notification is on
Wifi scanning was on but it was connected to the wifi all night
haptics are turned off
I am using 3rd party apps only
**What do you mean by unauthorize system apps?
Go to Authorization And Revocation in settings and remove authorization of all apps except Security + System Apps Updater + Updater.
Also make sure you turn of "Receive Recommendations" in every MIUI app. These settings are hidden throughout the system and there is no universal toggle to turn them all off at once.
As far as your settings which you use, the battery drain you are seeing is normal.
3% Overnight = Normal
15% Over 5 Hours = Normal.
Enjoy Poco X3
