Battery neither charging nor discharging issue on every custom rom

I bought zuk z2 4 days back and I installed latest official Indian nougat ROM on it then I unlocked the bootloader and installed few custom ROMs like jaguar nougat , jaguar Oreo , aosp extended , pixel experience etc on each and very rom I face a problem that is after installing any custom ROM the phone was neither charging nor discharging and sign of charging was flashing it was not constant so I tried many things like
1- changing back to stock marshmallow then charging started working again so I unlocked bootloader on marshmallow version and installed custom ROM it doesn't worked again so installed stock nougat qpst through qfil
2 again installed fee custom roms and deleted battterystats.bin it wasn't working again on different ROMs .
3. Tried different charger and wires again it wasn't charging and discharging
4 charging seems to not working even when I switch off it just stuck at that percentage
It seems to working only when you boot into recovery mode
Help me what should I do to solve this problem

same problem bro. only viper 3.1 version is showing correct battery percentage. all other roms shows me 65% even if it is at 0%.
i contacted aex developers . they suggested battery caliberation app. even that sucks. aex 5.2 rom is awesome . but it has battery problem and few features like pip mode, camera protrait etc are not working at all. if you get the solution. please share it me.
until then, use viper 3.1, no matter how many i got stuck at other roms. viper 3.1 saved me all the time. but i want oreo so waiting for the solution from someone

That's the same with me but not as bad as you are getting I am getting 5 hours of sot I am using aosip with the kernal

I had the same issue when i moved from Viper 3.1 to Oreo 8.1 custom roms (AEX, Pixel Experience and RR 6.0). After flashing the F1xy kernel , on each of them i am getting a SOT of barely 2-3 hours, as compated to 5-6 hours i was getting on Viper 3.1. Also, the battery drains pretty quick.
Like other, i too posted this query on AEX's Google+ page, and was suggested to use Batter Calibration app or resetting the batter stat file. None of them have worked.
Kernel has helped to resolve the charging and calibration issue, but batter backup has worsen.
Let us know if anyone is able to identify the problem and have a solution for it. This doesn't seem to be problem with all devices, just a few. I wonder what it might be.

Required : Opinions for Pixel Experience Rom

Hello Guys, I just bought a Lenovo Z2 Plus and wanted to install a custom rom on it. I did my thorough research through XDA and Youtube about various OREO based custom roms available for this phone. I like the Pixel Experience Rom but I am a newbie in flashing custom roms. I read in few threads about network connectivity issues in the Pixel Experience Rom and Resurrection Remix rom as well. In few of the youtube videos, I saw that the battery backup and Antutu score of Pixel Experience rom is marginally lower when compared to Resurrection Remix.
Can you guys give me your opinion on which rom should I install on my stock device. Kindly please provide the respective rom's Antutu Benchmark scores and Screen On Time especially for the Pixel Experience Rom. Please guide me about the bootloader unlocking and TRWP installation process as well. The last time I did all these was 2 years ago so kindly help me.
Thanks.

I have tried the PE (Pixel Exp) ROM and here my observations on that.
The Good
Extremely fluid. Performance is mind blowing. I have tried 3 Custom ROM so far (AEX, RR, PE) and PE felt the best performing in terms day to day device usage. Feels like PE is meant for Z2 Plus and vise versa. Everything works out of the box, GApps are preloaded, ROM is simple but very effective. All sensors, every piece of hardware included in the phone works perfectly. I never felt it was a custom rom, felt like meant for Z2 Plus.
The Bad
Not just just pixel, this is present in all Custom ROM for me and my device. I am from India, and using Reliance Jio VoLTE.
Now the problem is network reception isn't as good as stock ZUI.
The 2.4GHz WiFi got limited to 72 mbps only. Stock ZUI has no problem, tried changing few ROMs and finally settled with AEX which I see can connect to 2.4GHz WiFi and 150 mbps. I have tried baseband 1.76 (ZUI 2.5.104 ST India) and baseband 1.70 (Latest) for ZUI 3.5.3xx China. Nothing seems to help. Out of 4 ROM, Stock ZUI (2.5/3.5), PE, RR, AEX, only ZUI and AEX are able to give me a 150 mbps wifi link speed.
Now regarding the VoLTE reception. VoLTE works fine but network is fluctuating like hell. For me, the same is present in all three custom rom I have tried. AEX, RR, PE. Tried baseband 1.70/1.76 but couldn't solve it. There are no call drops but network isn't stable at all. Tested with Reliance Jio NetVelocity app for detailed information and it seems with none of the Custom ROM, Phone is able to sustain a stable 2300 MHz link. Falls back to 1800 MHz and 850 MHz randomly. Network speed wasn't bad, infact I would say satisfactory.
Only ZUI seems to have a stable Jio reception for me.
The Ugly
Battery issue. SOT is similar with 3 roms I have tried. PE/RR/AEX but something under PE is causing serious battery drain while idle. Overnight the phone is losing 2.5% to 3% battery per hour. I have tested to different custom kernel. AR-Beast and Heliox v2.0 with PE. Liked AR-Beast better as Heliox would underclock the CPU/GPU. Now with AR-Beast the idle battery drain came down to just around 1% per hour but still higher than default Resurrection Remix (RR ROM) or AEX ROM.
Presently using AEX ROM without any extra modification. Performance isnt as fuild as Pixel ROM but less problematic than others. Infact only ROM allowing me a 150mbps WiFi link speed.
Please guide me about the bootloader unlocking and TRWP installation process as well. The last time I did all these was 2 years ago so kindly help me.

Follow this guide to unlock the bootloader and install TWRP. Then installation processor of ROM will depend on which ROM you select. Note, there are two different ROM type now. 1. Full Treble 2. Non Treble. Installation process are different for them.
Pixel is a non treble ROM. Like 2 years ago, you would feel similar setup process.
If you chose Pixel, after you have unlocked and got TWRP installed,
1. download PE ROM
2. boot into TWRP
3. Wipe system, data, cache, dalvik
4. Flash ROM
5. Wipe Cache
6. Reboot
If all went ok, frist boot will take a few minutes and you will be asked to setup your Google Account under Pixel Exp ROM.
Remember, I am not an expert so wait for others to comment and guide you !! Just sharing from my personal experience !!
Good luck.

You need the NON-TREBLE new trees for PE ROM
Now as I said I am no expert so I dont know if one should flash kernel at one go. I can only tell you what I did.
First I did the PE. Setup the phone and used it for 20 odd minutes while setting up all the things. Then I went on to flash the AR-Beast. Some one suggested me not not turn on the phone immediately after kernel flash. Rather power off from TWRP wait for 10 mins before switch on. I don't know if it is required or not, but I have followed that advice.
Thanks.

@4tanmoy
One small mistake from my end. PE ROM comes with GApps included. So when you flash PE ROM, you don't need to Flash GApps again.

Yes, I did some more research. Flashed PE with UberCool.
After Setup, I flashed AR Kernal and SuperSu.
Installed Google Camera Mod for HDR+ and Potrait Modes.
Flashed Dialer Fix to resolve the dialer problem as it showed that phone is not supported when launching dialer. now fixed.
The PE ui is butter smooth, phone doesnot heats anymore. Charged last night till 100 % and browsed youtube, downloaded my preferred apps from play store, browsed quora for 30 mins, took some pictures. In the morning I played subway surfers, clash royal, some web browsing, downloaded all remaining apps for my phone. The battery is now 59% while I typing this from the phone.
Overall, I am astonished by the PE smoothness and completely satisfied by the battery life.

Excellent !!
Could you please check two things, how is the battery drainage overnight? While phone is idle.
Secondly, what is the WiFi Link speed?
Basically, two of my main problems lol

the wifi link speed is 72 mbps and about battery drainage overnight, i'll post tomorrow morning

regarding battery drain, I slept at 02:40 at night at 21 %. Woke up at 08:15 at 17 %. I guess 1% per hour. I am getting a Stand By time of 20+ hours and Screen On Time of more than 5 hours 30 minutes approximately.

Thanks for the reply.
Your data is very similar to what I have experienced with Pixel ROM.
This drainage is one of the issue for which I had to move out of Pixel ROM

Excellent review, I too installed PE and is enjoying every bit of Pixel, but the main problem I am facing is ,my phone's all sensors are dead or not working has tried Zuk Official too The nougat Indian and The Oreo Chinese version, but without any luck proximity gyroscope pedometer and other sensors are not working,
Would like ask someone from the forum to please help me to fix the isaue, as far as Custom rom in Zuk 2 I will stick to Pixel as it is the best till now what ever I have used . I have TWRP installed has flashed sensor.zip available in the Zuk Forum but nothing seems to work.
Waiting for a reply from the forum members it they take out sometime to help a man is distress.

Its a clear sign that something wrong with the hardware.
Do you have warranty left ?
If you do, QFIL 1.9 then flash 2.5 Indian ROM. Everything will be bone stock with locked bootloader and stock recovery. Go and claim warranty !!

If the issue is present with stock ROM also with bone stock phone, then it feels that the issue is with the Hardware.
Anyway, hope you find a solution and if you do, pls post that so that for reference if later down the some one needs he can fix his issue.

Dude heating will be there if you play while charging
The only ROM I can suggest u is cardinal aosp I guess it's the fastest out there is developed by ppl who developed citrus
So same kernel basically
U won't need any enhancements here except GPU boost GPU driver update and boosts and cooling mod
Always non treble is better than treble roms in terms of performance
Rr is treble rom
Try cardinal
If ur feeling lag in bootleggers

I have only 4 roms currently that I can suggest
All are non treble
Cardinal aosp
Modded nitrogen os
Bootleggers
Jaguar Oreo ( if u don't want volte)
Speedy roms are cardinal bootleggers jaguar
Maybe jaguar is the speedest I uninstalled long back so I don't remember coz it didn't had volte
Currently I'm on bootleggers and satisfied with its pubg performance
I play on balanced settings in 1080p
Occasional stutters
If u want performance play on 540p any one of these can play at med settings without stutters at a good frame rate
Search in roms section for links
I will only give u cardinal aosp link for now

No heating with GPU driver update
Use it to get better frame rates
You'll have better frame rates at 540 p ( stock ) obviously
And even use GPU boost mod magisk module

Cardinal ROM has minute bugs
Try modded nitrogen os
I know GPU boost doesn't help much
But it'll change some lines in build prop to increase GPU performance
It's in magisk module downloads

Mokee rom 9.0 !? Fastest smoother rom

I have tested the official nightly mokee rom 9.0 for mi 6. This seem to be based on lineage os( it's almost identical) but it is so much smoother. For now it's the fastest and smoother custom ROM ever tested in my life. About stability and battery I don't know because I use only 3 days.. seem to be good but it's recommended official recovery and official website gapps. Even the gaming is outstanding. The touch latency is so low and has lot of free ram. I tested also on S4. Lineage os official lag compared mokee .
Any reviews would be appreciated thanks

Great , can u share some screenshot about the settings or feature list ? I Would change to mokee if stable ? thanks before

the features are the same of lineage os 16.. but the smoothness is outstanding .. seem to be ios!!!
mokee is official supported and released every day.. its more heavy because contain more caf/ security patches compared lineage os

Runs perfectly so far...
Can someone explain what SELinux deactivated means? Is this a bad thing for a rom?
Thanks

SElinux works in the basis that it will only allow predefined activities to be run on the system. So like fingerprint activities is common. To be enforcing the developer has to define all of these rules. Tedious and time consuming they have to do it last and it takes a while.
Permissive or disabled just means any activity can run.
Its not as safe as enforcing. But if you use root then arguably you defeat the point of enforcing anyway...
Don't worry about it unless your phone needs to be 100% secure... In which case you should be using stock MIUI anyway

Permissive is the same as disabled except it's is logging right?
Well that's true actually.. having a rootet custom rom might not be super secure anyway... lol

I have checked that @xiaobai112220 still maintain sagit repo on github
sounds promising

Did you still use Mokee? How is the battery? I'm using LOS 15.1 nightly and is not that good. If Mokee is better than Lineage maybe i will try it.

I use Mokee from 7hours and i can say, its the faster rom what i use. Battery is pretty nice. Actually have SOT 2h from 80% to 65% battery. If u want somethink more u can ask. Pages on stock internet app loading instanly.

which type of rom do you guys use? "release" or "nightly"

Mokee 8.0 or 9.0? On 9.0 i got massive battery drain, for example on night time (while i'm sleeping) i got about 8-10% battery juice off, with Wi-Fi, data, gps, nfc and all those turned off. In my opinion it's very much....

Which firmware did you flash? What rom did you use before mokee?

the procedure in order to avoid problems
Clean install:
flash via fastboot official tpwr
reboot recovery
format data and all partitons
VIA ADB SIDELOAD:
install modem /firmware stable 10.2.1 global or chinese ( about 61mb)
install mokee rom 9.0 latest nightly( it has the latest march security patches with improved read write storage improvements )
install official latest gapps
reboot
for root flash magisk after first boot

How's Mokee compared to the latest PixelExperience CAF?

What's the best custom ROM for 5t out there?

OnePlus's aggressive battery optimization is the worst optimization I've ever seen on a smartphone! i won't go into much detail coz every body knows it, I give up on OOS, so i want to settle for custom roms so please recommend me the best custom for this device and also if it's possible, how i can migrate my apps/app data to custom roms.
thank you.

Hi,
i never flash rom in my 5T but i have same opinion !
i wait expert rom 5T but i see Paranoid Quartz 2 !

Have you tried oos 10 beta ? I had agressive battery optimization issues on oos 9 too but no more since i flashed oos 10 beta

Yes sort of. I can't confirm this but I feel it's a lot better.
May be this (https://www.androidauthority.com/oneplus-background-apps-1028409/) finally came to our 5/5t

thanks for the update. i always liked an app i left hours ago being freezed at exactly where i was with out the app refreshing each time i get back. what i mean is my previous iphone/galaxy used to do that i.e i will quit facebook like hours ago and when i get back it will be at exact point (post/comment) i was borrowing.
Is it like that on OOS 10 now?

So I tried to left Twitter in recents for an hour and when I re opened it, the app doesn't have to restart but it's not exactly at the same state. It may be caused by some other apps (xda, reddit, galerie, camera, Snapchat and skype) that were also in recents and needed to free some memory
However oos 10 is worth a try, those new animation feel much better than on oos 9

thank you for your time i appreciate it. anyway clearing the recent apps all the time stresses the memory and in somehow wastes your time. later versions of android efficiently manage background apps [recents] so it won't eat up your battery and you won't wait longer when getting back to your apps.

you can try PE Plus

It is a preference to be fair but out of the main ROMs the stable choices with frequent support and updates appear to be
Oxygen os based:
Theone5tOS
https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-5t/development/rom-theone5tos-v1-0-t3729798
Pixel based:
Pixel experience (or optional plus version with extras)
https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-5t/development/rom-pixel-experience-t3976333
Stock android based:
DerpFest (very customisable)
https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-5t/development/rom-unofficial-aosip-aka-derpfest-t3978357
Crdroid
https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-5t/development/rom-crdroid-android-6-t3972533
They are the most stable and frequently updated which some people would class as best.
While others would say best is for battery life and if so then usually pie builds without gapps if possible say like
Lineage OS 16
https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-5t/development/rom-lineageos-16-0-pie-oneplus-5t-t3843026
Would be your best bet as you would save a lot just removing all the bloatware and background features that comes with gapps.
Again it's preferance and based on individual use cases same reason why people publishing SOT means absolutely nothing. As unless they show a before and after with a guide to drastically change the battery life ; all they're doing is saying if you use it like me you may get this time (some people only text and phone and some game while others are social media butterflies).

PS. as long as you sync all you apps and photos and data with Google everything will transfer to the new ROM. when you sign in with your Google account pick restore from cloud.
If you have anything that is installed from another source or a patched app ; then you can use Titanium backup to backup all apps and restore them when you have installed the new ROM.
Usual procedure to change ROM is :
1.Unlock bootloader
2.Install twrp or another custom recovery. ( I recommend orangefox as you can manage magisk modules easy through it.)
3.wipe system and data but do not format data where SD is if you want to keep what's on your phone's drive. (never wipe vendor as it has the treble files in it.)
4. Flash ROM zip you have chosen.
5. Flash magisk if you want root with mods if not just the keep recovery zip if installing oos. (oos replaces twrp or other recovery's with oos ones when installing not a big problem as can be flashed through fastboot again.)
6.optional you can install custom kernal or no Verity at this point.
7.reboot into new ROM (sometimes takes 10 minutes or so to boot up.) and restore desired files and apps by clicking restore from the cloud.
I've only wrote this second part of the reply as you also asked for advice on transitioning to a new ROM and keeping apps ect. Even though for more advice on the unlocking and rooting I would read the available guide.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-5t/how-to/oneplus-5t-unlock-bootloader-flash-twrp-t3704592

you can try pixel rom, but overall I think stock rom is best. And this is oneplus, so, stock roms are so close to any other custom rom.

Yes, i agree with you before i update to Android 10. I experienced a poor battery life compared to Android 9; i make improvements installing a custom kernel but i'm far away from battery life of Android 9.
