Hello everyone,
Just curious to know if we have Oxygen os builds available for Oreo in 2019. Would like to rollback to Oreo but don't want to lose android security patches.
Android pie is working fine. But really miss the brightness levels and camera was better in nougat and Oreo compared to pie. Battery was the top in nougat easily got 6-7 hours screen on time with enough battery left for the day and with Oreo it was the best 8-8.5 hours.
Not complaining about pie. Can get through the whole day with moderate use and 20-30% left in evening. Just sharing my experience so far with 5t.
I would like to try nougat or Oreo if there are any versions available with latest android security patches.
Apologies if this has been already asked somewhere and answered. I went across XDA and OnePlus forums, Plz let me know if anyone is running Oxygen os with nougat/Oreo at the moment. Thanks!!
No OOS oreo/nougat builds with latest security patches

I dont see any decrease in battery life in pie. More likely your battery degenerated over time or some apps or background services drain it.
Go hunting for it with logcat or betterbatterystats
Try custom ROMs

Yes...custom roms are totally worth it, Since I have multiple work apps installed at the moment. a bit concerned on how they will work under root. Just sharing my usage logs with a comparison between Oreo and pie
The first set of screenshots are from moderate day usage in Oreo back in 2018 which has mixed usage of social apps and gaming
The second usage is from current stable 9.0.6
Not sure if everyone is getting similar battery life between Oreo and pie in moderate usage throughout the day.
I feel the 10-15% difference with battery left at end of day cause a big change still I get to manage throughout the day in pie.
Compared to Oreo from these random usage screenshots, pie is getting worse day by day. Maybe it's the battery that gets degraded over time or its the overall phone hardware that runs round the clock for us
I have this feel almost with every device, Samsung galaxy 5, Xperia neo v and also back in opo. Android kitkat had best battery and lollipop had a moderate and with marshmallow it got worse.
Just sharing my opinion and also curious to know if y'all out there feel the same.
Edit : Would like to add all these usage were taken in locked bl running unrooted
No need for root , just flash a custom rom and then enjoy ,for me comparing to Oreo pie has good SOT , AND im a heavy Gamer so cant help with battery stats :silly::laugh:
Still many custom ROMs works good in SOT with a custom kernel too.

Hmm yeah.. planning to give it a try. Been sticking with stock unroot most of times since I got 5t. Had it unlocked and under root for few weeks back in January due to shutter sound bug. Since it got fixed moved to stable.
I could see many custom roms are available to try.
Any tips on choosing custom rom, I mainly look for Oxygen os camera and good battery. How's OOS open beta holding up compared to stable pie in terms of battery.

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

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 ?
The battery drain issues are solved
Guys iam happy to report that the battery drain issues are solved on latest build of bootleggers 4.0 rom
Here is a link to it
https://forum.xda-developers.com/lenovo-zuk-z2/development/pie-bootleggers-3-5-shishufied-zuk-z2-t3867112
Hello
Since upgrading my firmware to Oreo 8.1 I find the batter life on my G5 Cedric poor, and it's even worse if I flash a custom 8.1 rom. Currently on Atomic 8.1, and with light to moderate use after 7 hours I go from 100% to 35%.
I don't know whether it's a case of my battery needs replacing or whether Oreo just eats up battery more than Nougat?
If others have found that Oreo is worse than I might downgrade back to Nougat.
Anyone else with a similar problem?
The battery life on Oreo custom ROMs is poor. However, the stock Oreo (i had the twrp flashable one) one was really nice. Battery life was better than Nougat custom ROMs. Pie custom ROMs also offer great battery life.
Interesting. My wife uses G5 and it's currently on Oreo and she complains a lot about battery life. It was updated from Nougat and reading some Moto forums, people there argued that it takes few weeks for the system to optimise itself, but it seems it never happened (Never heard such reasoning before either). I think flashing the ROM anew (even Oreo) might be a good option.
Hi I've been using the default Xiaomi ROM since I bought this device about a year ago. It was working fine with the Android 9 upgrade, but I noticed Android 10 runs noticeably slow. So I want to change the ROM, but I'm unaware if the issues are because of Xiaomi ****ing up, or if Android 10 is not light enough for the device. So I want to know which custom ROM of the ones available in this forum would best suit me if what I'm looking for is reliability and speed. I would like to stay in Android 10 if possible, so if anyone got experiences with custom Android 10 ROMS that could give some insight into their performance with this device I'd appreciate it. Thanks.
HavocOS is pretty nice, also Pixel Experience is pretty nice but when I was testing it, it had pretty bad battery 5-6h SoT. If I were you I would wait for POSP to be updated which should hopefuly happen soon. I personally use HavocOS vanilla and it works great, only issue I have is bluetooth audio that stutters rarely, and battery might not satisfy you. I get about 8h of SoT, while on stock android one I was able to get 12-13h

I don't have any problem with those, but I used 11.0.10.0 as base and everything works as it should. Also it might be cause by newer version, on 3.8 I had no problems and I didn't install 3.9 yet

By default the OS is almost not dozing, so you can see a bit more of battery usage, but you can tweak the kernel to save battery and make it last "forever", see the instructions on butterfly kernel post.
So first of all, happy new year everyone!!
Compared to stock rom, does the battery life fares better with the custom roms released so far? Did you get more SOT hours with a custom rom compared to stock rom?

Up to rom and kernel.
Some can get 9-11 SOT with stock rom and custom kernel.
Custom rom usually add more SOT. I can reach 14-16 SOT hours easily with no gaming. And my normal daily usage is around 10 hours.
I used device from July 2020.

I've been complaining about battery drain with WiFi on for a long time. If you search the forum you'll see my nagging.
The problem started either with MIUI 12.5.x or Android 11. MIUI 12.0.x with Android 10 Custom ROMs don't have the WiFi battery drain.
I haven't tried Android 12 Custom ROMs yet, so I don't know how the battery is with it. Currently I'm using the latest version of https://crdroid.net/begonia/6.
I need at least a few more days to be sure how it goes.

MIUI 12.0.x doesn't have battery drain with WiFi On, but I can't stand its interface.
Using an old version of a Custom ROM (MIUI 12.0.x based on Android 10) is an alternative, but be prepared for SafetyNet to be broken.

Well, I haven't used any phone with their stock launcher, so maybe that's why I don't mind it. And stock miui 12, with a nova launcher, and some pixel themes from the store does makes the phone ui overall better

After using this for a while the WiFi battery drain doesn't happen on this ROM.

Hi!
can anybody confirm which android version is more stable & featurefull among 10-12?
I'm currently using Android 12, but i want more stability & fluidity in my device.
Thanks in advance!
I personally thought that Android 10 was better than Android 11 which was noticeably slower and while Android 12 is buggy, the battery life is way better than it was previously so I just stick with 12. Getting over 4 hours SoT from 65% of the battery (I charge at 20%, take off charger at 85%) is great, and on days I actually charge to 100% because I know I'll be out of the house, 7 1/2 to 8 hours is possible.
I'm running stock FW, Android 12, always updated. And, I just notice I didn't received updates since 5 october. Well, end of life of my Pixel 3.
I can confirm battery drain, but for security reason, I stayed with stock updated.
Now, it's another story.
Thanks for the infos @EtherealRemnant.
Any advise for any Rom or you stay on Stock?
Sorry OP, if I disturb your post with my demand or if it's out of subject.
Thanks
