Stop using MIUI EU, they became bad roms, and because of that I switched back to official MIUI Global ROM. No overheating and battery life is better, I get 3-4 hours SOT on official Global rom, which was not posible on MIUI EU rom (max 2h SOT)
Also LOS15 is stable enough now, so you can try it.
Global Stable 9.6.1

which rom for oneplus 3 has best battery life and performance

Please tell me which rom is overall gud for oneplus 3. Checking all the rom ia not possible for me it takes lot of time and i m really disappointed form oxygen os 4.0.3 it drain lots of battery please suggest me a rom with good battery life and performance i dont care much about customization
Iam afraid there is really nothing that can help you (or others like me..). I have tried allot of ROMS and they all result in somewhat the same result.
1 charge 1 day (or almost 1 day) Does not matter if i use custom kernel battery improvement tools or "special" tips and tricks at the end of the afternoon iam still running low. I know i use my phone ALLOT and i use allot of connectivity (WIFI, 3/4G, BT) that is properly the issue, but still its sad that the only thing that might help is buying the oneplus3T.

If you want to stick to MM then go for Sultan's CM & if you want to upgrade to N then go for Resurrection Remix. Both ROM's stock kernels have new good battery life but in the camera part they are out numbered. Sultanxda has done best job by optimising the inbuilt camera app at par with stock OOS & also he gives security patch updates too as soon as they are released.
Resurrection Remix on other hand works great with Android N but has buggy camera due to buggy camera on LOS & we know that till now OnePlus has not released blobs so can't do anything.
All this is my personal preference. You can try out both our any other ROM's from development section like Cypheros or AOSP extended which are AOSP & LOS based or for for Freedom OS or Experience ROM which are OOS based.
I have around 7h SOT with latest freedomOS and bluspark kernel. In my eyes thats pretty good and carries me easily through the day. And light use even 2 days.
If you have any heavy battery drain you should search for the reason. Check wakelocks and logcat too find out whats wrong.

Try VertexOS.. You wont feel a stutter and I'm not joking.. Als it scales way more efficient because of EAS. It delivers a near stock experience

Well it has EAS.. Which means that the CPU can be really tamed.. Battery depends on standby but in my usage pattern I can easily get 4 hours SOT. I get an average drain of 13% per hour.

Hi, could you please direct me to some more information about this EAS feature?

Worse battery life than Mi 5?

Hi guys,
Actually the battery life of my Mi 5s doesn't satisfy me.
Previously I owned a Mi 5, and battery life was better!
And this is uncommon, because Mi 5s should have a better battery life than Mi 5.
Also, phone is often hot.
I've tried many roms, nothing changed.
Anyone with the same issue?
In the beginning this was also the case for me, but after flashing newer firmware versions it got way better.
I think no because my friends buy new mi5s and he have very good battery life but my mi5 very bad battery life.
I have 4-5 s.o.t daily usage
My friend mi5s 6-7 s.o.t daily usage ( he and me same usage ) whatsapp browser camera ...

Which firmware are you using now? How about of Sot?
I don't know, sometimes I think my battery could be faulty.
Not sure about SOT, but it lasts the entire day without a problem under medium use with the screen on more often than most people do. So it will indeed be around the 7 hours like bugra333 says. I use the latest official LineageOS build.
The firmware is here:

/EDIT: Do also check if some app isn't draining your battery too much. Some bugs may cause this behaviour.
And with Miui do you have similar results?
Worse than currently, but not quite sure by how much.
Anyone else?
i have over 6 hours of sot on xiaomi eu rom, official miui, rr and mokee. official los gives just over 5 hours for me
My mi5s is the only Xiaomi to ever disappoint. The battery is so bad that i never take the phone out of the house. I use it mostly to run the incredible Xiaomi vacuum. As others have noted, the phone runs abnormally hot and that is a huge waste of power. Source of the power loss is unknown. Also, there isn't a Sim card in the phone, so it's not the radio. Global 9.5.2 makes no difference.

Bluetooth battery drain

Before flashing a custom rom i had no problems with my p2 at all. Last week I installed the lineage 14.1 rom and now suddenly the bluetooth function drains my battery a crazy amount. It can go up to 88% of the total battery usage, i think on the stock rom it was about 5 or 10%. I searched everywhere but couldn't find a fix for me. Any help?

I don't know the sot exactly. But it has been a big difference since then. I used to charge my phone every 3 days and now i have to charge it almost every day. It has become a pretty big inconvenience for me

Cell Standby Problem Help

Firstly , I am so satisfied about screen on time. can get more than 10hours with global stable 10.0.2.0 device is 3/32 variant. But I have a serious problem. Once I let phone to sleep from night to morning I lose 4-5-6 percent of battery. I had redmi note 3 pro before and I wasn't losing battery at nights. Tried to find a solution for it and flashed with miflash and both twrp these global stable roms( 10.0.2.0, 10.0.4.0, 10.0.6.0, 10.2.1.0 , 9.5.19.0 , 9.6.3.0 ,9.6.4.0 )
Does any one of you know the reason of these battery loss. And I have strong signal btw. Also is there any custom rom that provide me perfect battery life ( sot and cell standby both) and stability. I dont need it to be fast. Thanks !!!
I'm also a former RMN3 owner. Most of the custom ROMs I've tried (none of them MIUI based) don't match the standby battery endurance of the older model. I just beared with it.
If you want to look for the best, I think that's indeed stock or MIUI-based ones.

Question Miui 14.0.4 stock Battery drain

Hello
I recivied 3 days ago a new update to Miui 14, before update the battery work for 24 hours good (40-50%), now afrer 12 i'ts 20%.
does anyone have this problem?
I am using Miui 14 (xiaomi.eu stable edition), and I also experience battery drainage. I am looking for any updates, but they seem to have dropped their weekly updates for Lisa (the 5G NE). Let's see now, because I ended up liking Miui and not like the UI of any other roms...
yes have the aforementioned problem of battery drain. Since I kept this phone as stock I cannot even revert version
Yes, I've faced the same problem. I was getting 10% overnight battery drain. Then I flashed custom rom(AOSP), and now the overnight battery drain is 4%. MIUI su*ks

PixelOS latest build. The battery backup is way better than MIUI, also it feels smoother than MIUI

On my Mi11 used to get 2-4% battery drain overnight on MiUI13, since i updated to MiUI14 i get 8-14% battery drain, counting i usually sleep 7-5 hours, it's not an issue since i can change fast, but it's goddam annoying that now i consume 15% insted of 10% per Youtube watching hour
One thing could be done is unintall Carrier Services updates.
Any custom rom > stock miui
I've noticed that "com.android.bluetooth" is draining battery. Is there some fix?
