I am using the same it hardly comes 4 hours on full WiFi ,But on LTE it drains fast..
Any particular settings to get better SOT on AEX of 24th build??

I'm using the latest RR 5.8.3 and the battery life is a lot better compared to AEX

Sorry to say this two days ago..I switched from RR to AEX and in my personnel opinion after using AEX for two days ..Its way better than RR.

Yes! AEX is a lot more responsive and fast compared to RR.
But with cost of high battery drain...

I think AEX is giving better SOT compared to RR .. my blind guess is that RR rom size is 600MB+ where as AEX is 400MB+ that could be the reason AEX is lite weight with minimal bloatware and consumes less battery compared to RR just a guess

I'm using lastest chinese rom 2.5.412 with LTE and WIFI both with normal using chating & browsring & listen music

Stay with zui only as it gives 7 + hours sot with lte on n regular use

I am back to zui.
Satisfied with sot. Usually I get 6-7 hours with 1-2 hours gaming and rest usual use.
Nothing against custom roms. They are awesome but my work doesn't allow me to invest much time fixing bugs when they appear.
That made me shift back to stock.
I'll post sot screenshot next time.

This. I am happy with backup on ZUI. Problem though is bugs and some missing basic features and smoothness and gaming performance when needed.

Freedom OS 2.8, bluspark kernel. wih 4g heavy usage, giving me 4-5hrs SOT constantly. and in wifi/light usage , 7-8hrs SOT always. Loving the current setup.
Pheonix AEX by itself... has a great kernel and easily gotten 9+ SoT in the last two battery cycles. Has all the customization you'll ever need built in and has the best OOS camera port. Just give it a try, it wont disappoint.

VertexOS! Is has Voxpopuli and EAS. It's simple and runs really really smooth... One of the Smoothest roms out there with decent battery life!
Phoenix AEX
Phoenix AEX probably

I'm running the unofficial Pure Nexus ROM with its included Sultan kernel. It's good in my opinion.
Use unofficial Pure Nexus ROM with its included Sultan kernel. It's good ROm, stable ,bat. friendly
Thanks guys. I will try Vertex Now, I have EAX Phoenix, but it's a bit laggy...
I gonna try Pure Nexus when it's stable enough. (I see posts about lags).

Well, reduced small cluster max freq by one step. Rest all as it is. Agressive doze is OFF. Somehow feels that keeping it ON drains more. /Contradicting/
Tried naptime initially, but with and without it, the duration is more or less the same.
I am also looking for a great ROM.
Is official Resurrection Remix the "best"? It has all features of the other ROMs?? Good battery life and stable??
Official kernel?
Or are there better ROMs or kernels and if yes, which are the advantages?
---------- Post added at 11:42 ---------- Previous post was at 11:32 ----------
I personally don't know, why to use a Oxygen OS based ROM? I think, it has no features and not much customization and nothing great? Or am I wrong?
xXx no limits rom with bluspark kernel is a beast. Camera is my priority especially video recording and no other rom could suffice that. Very stable ofcourse.
Rom has inbuilt performance tweaks and is super snappy. Ofcouse I tried plenty other roms especially for camera, sulan's rom phoenix aex rom and many more , they manage to take good photos almost as good as OOS but none of them could match video recording smoothness of OOS especially in 1080p 60fps. Tried and tested a lot. And with my usage I easily get around 6 to 7 hours of sot with excellent performance.

But Oxygen OS based ROMs don't have many features, I suppose.

Standby drain

When you sleep, does your phone sleep, or does it stay up all night and crunch 1s and 0s? Rate this thread to express how you deem the speed at which the Lenovo ZUK Z2 (Plus)'s battery drains under standby conditions. A higher rating indicates that when the phone is not in use, the battery drains minimally.
Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!
One of the biggest issues in the current Oreo ROMs is the mobile network standby drain.
People using the Pie alphas should report if it still exists or has been fixed, although I don't see any new baseband and hence the chances of latter are less.

I think I'm going to flash a really old stock ZUI for the firmware and then flash the legendary AEX 4.6 Nougat. That seems to be the only way forward to get some decent battery life and stability.

You could also install the viper os 3.0 final build but the problem with that is that it doesnt have the cameraapi 2 enabled on that because of that the google cam wouldnt work. The photos taken by the google cam and stock cam differ in the quality by a huge margin to be ignored

Which ZUI you would flash? Stock Indian 2.5 or the Chinese ones?

I ended up dowloading ZUI 2.0.093 Indian for qfil and ZUI 2.5.104 stock recovery zip (qpst one for this wasn't downloading for me).
I flashed ZUI 2.0 via qfil successfully, and received a small oTA to 2.0.133, and then decided to flash 2.5 via recovery, but failed to get it work. Anyways, decided to go ahead and unlock the BL and then I ended up flashing only the baseband from Indian 2.5.099 (data quota restrictions ).
After that I flashed the last build of AEX 4.6, used it for a day and the standby drain was not like a drain overthere. Unless I did not use hotspot, it wouldn't show up in top 5.
Few hours later, got a notification for a rebased release of Jaguar oreo, and couldn't resist from trying it out. Initial impressions were great, but slowly the standby drain started creeping in, and within a few hours it rose to the top. Luckily I made a nandroid backup of the AEX 4.6 Installation which I reverted to last night.
I do miss the oreo features though
Developers should look around the way Oneplus 6T addressed the issue. Coz I heard, they almost fixed the issue in the new phone.

So does this problem exist for all android phones that are above android Oreo??? or is it just for our phones. The thing iam trying to understand here is that is it google that messed up android or is the developer that created the roms for our phone that messed up. Its actually funny how the phone uses more battery when the phone is not in use.:cyclops::cyclops:

After creating a nandroid backup of fully loaded aex 4.6, I'm back to living on the bleeding edge. Going back to aex 4.6 wasn't as good in terms for battery performance Z I expected it to be.
Currently on october pixel exp pie and the latest gcam pixel3 mod and even the pixel 2 mods frequently crash the phone (kernel panic maybe) during HDR processing. Didn't have time for debugging so received a lot of frowning from family for missed shots and extended wait times but who cares as whatever gcam was able to shoot was unbelievable.
Would be moving to the latest AEX pie with 4.4 kernel soon as I have read that the new kernel will improve the battery life.

Hmm, is this issue specific to Oct build of PE Pie ROM ? Or you witnessed with earlier versions of PE too?
Battery life started decreasing after beginning of Android Oreo 8.1.
I'm using Viper Nougat Final + OSS Cam patch. I'm pretty happy with it.

Which rom and baseband do you use ??
ZUI 5 GSI has very low standby drain and SOT is also really good between oreo roms. You can try it once.
mine was so bad
I lose 25-30 percent through the night everynight and, I just replaced my battery for 3 month.
i don't know what's going on.
Can any one recommend me some good battery rom please ?

Battery drain on all custom roms

I'm new to Xiaomi mi max 32Gb. At the moment, I'm running MIUI 9 global 8.2.24 beta and the battery life is fantastic, 11 hours of SOT, but every time I flash a custom roms the battery drain is crazy, 5 hours of SOT. I have tried a couple of custom roms but it's always the same. I get about half of battery life in any custom roms. Is there something that I'm doing wrong
same as mew , more SOT in miui than Other non miui custom rom.

You should install:
-greenify:Restrict background apps activity
-app opsisable (location+keep phone awake+kee app in background) for all apps
-betterbatterystats:shows you what drains the battery
-run battery saver mode
-install custom kernel
when i first bought this phone and used miui i charge every 3 days. with custom rom and greenify, every day. so up to you. u want long battery or custom rom

Which costume ROM's?
Stable unofficial LineageOS (nijel8) out of the box gives 11~12h of SOT while stable global MIUI 9.5.2.0 gives 5 to 8 h SOT.
This is normal use without heavy gaming of course.

Well obviously you did something wrong. With more costume scheduler settings people where getting & up to 17h of SOT (but that whose with rather extreme approach) on unofficial LineageOS 14.1 with light usage all well documented on power/performance thread. Had a guy with similar problem as you around month ago, his problem turned out to be a binary leftovers from dirty flashes of different costume ROM's. After he did it properly thing's changed. The name of user whose arbitrarygrill, read couple of pages back.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-max/development/rom-lineageos-14-1-t3529851/page436
& you can always get more with costume scheduler/hotplug script's. Prime concern whose to match good old MIUI 8.2 - 8.3 SOT out of the box but with much better performance & without MIUI limitations (background apps/services aggressive killing) which we achieved in all arias mostly by working on kernel which Xiaomi never did & it's a source of most firmware problems today. Fun part is that 90% of back supplementary settings & libs are the same today; Xiaomi uses CAF settings & libs across the board (same as our unofficial Lineage is) and unofficial LineageOS uses the vendor libs from MIUI aside from ROM (apps) side only general difference is the kernel for which I vouch that our works much better & is safer.

Kernel is already semi costume, only a couple of things are added that are really beneficial as FIOPS IO scheduler & are set as defaults.

I'm on DoTOS and it's really good; playing PUBG on highest possible settings very smoothly and on top of that it's probably the best looking rom out there
Jaguar is the best performance ROM for zuk z2
Dotos initially very good but later gets worse
Jaguar oreo best rom ever
Citrus caf fastest and best nougat ROM
I'm saying after trying a lot roms
Testing then for several days and not hours
best sot for zuk 2 plus

Plz don't focus on battery backup focus on performance
If u want is battery backup go for h2os
In citrus it's around 11%
In Jaguar 16-18% in very high settings like HDR and 60fps with anti aliasing and shadows enabled with 2k custom resolution
That too no lags moderate heating
Most of the roms have an avg battery drain of 14%
Try Lineage Rom 15.1 by Augustin it seems stable on me no lags Even HD reso and even in other games. I've just waiting the June updates. I just customize the sounds.

Well best kernel for tweaking is nameless kernel with akt on treble roms
For non treble roms use heliox kernel 2.0 with akt
Use ghostpepper profile of akt usually for gaming
Use xana battery if u want battery
Flash akt via twrp
Download terminal emulator from play store
Type su command and then AKT then chose profile
Search for akt 1.6 in other z2 threads I have uploaded in many threads
Due to network error I'm unable to upload it here
Pls suggest some good ROM for pubg
I was using bootleggers 3 it was really good
Great performance
Suggest
Some speedest ROM
Plz
My choices aosip arrow pie dotos
Any other suggestions plz

Best ROM for performance?

Yo, whats the best rom to make the most performance out of the Z2 Plus? Low thermals if possible? Im currently using RR 6.0 and i can run pubg fine on high settings but sometimes, my phone just heats up xd, mostly normal temps tho. Last time i benchmarked, the result was around 140k

It has akt inbuilt. Average 6+h sot in stock profile. You can configure it to get up to 8h. It has many kernel aduitor profiles on it which give a good customizability.
Use Aosip Rom, Latest 9th July Build..!! It's The best.. !
Running AiCP 13.1 latest weekly. Default kernel. No extra mods. No root. Jio VoLTE (Primary) AirTel Second SIM. A lot of indoor WiFi usage also.
I follow a 20-80% charge cycle assisted by AccuBattery app. Once a week I do full 100%.
Getting around 6 hours 15 mins SoT. General phone, social apps, work apps usage along with few matches of PubG before bed time.
Performance is okish. Not as great as some non treble ROM but if compared to other treble ROMs, performance is satisfactory !!
Bootleggers best performance and battery ( do some digging you'll know ?)
Try miui 9.5 rom it is best rom
Try H2OS
You should try H2OS, the most stable custom ROM I've used so far. Smooth and fast, with great battery life and features. My favorite custom ROM for this phone yet.
I hope it gets updated for 8.1 though.
