Pls snap the is side of the charger where the spec prints are. I want to confirm something. Tnx

You have to understand that the reason for the battery drain is the helio x10 processor. It's a power hungry soc. That's why the redmi note 2 battery is a write off.

Its not your phone nor is your battery going bad it's just a poorly optimized processor.

You could try using power save mode
Disable sync
Disable live wallpaper.
Disable automatic brightness
Turn off gps

He uses rn3 mtk, I use rn3 sd. So I don't think it's about processor here.

Lucky you. That's means you just need to adjust the settings a bit to get more battery life. Miui 8 is much more heavier than miui 7.

Which of d settings?
GPS is off
Sync is off

Auto-start apps.

P.S. if sync is off, you won't be able to receive emails. Only my Gmail is allowed to auto sync. But you can disable it if you wish

Are gapps running by default?

Now I'm in trouble and I don't want to bliv what I'm thinking..
Flashed eu latest rom on my rn3 mtk, d rom is dope tho but battery is not normal yet
Flashed miui7,battery was very abnormal

Hope it's not that my battery had been damaged by this silly miui8 rom?

Bugs, bugs, and more bugs! This your experiment of different roms must have injected some bugs in your device . I remember after flashing a Bule custom rom in my redmi note 2,the phone never remained the same even after returning to global stable rom. You may need to do a full wipe of your device to get rid of that bug. But don't forget your Helio x10 chip.

Miui 8 is heavy and has so many bugs recently. The best rom I have used since getting my redmi note 2 is miui 8 (have used miui 6,7,and now 8 ). I think the very first upgrade to miui 8 was that particular rom. In the last 2 months I have installed miui 8 on two separate redmi 2 devices and they perform excellently well, infact one of the owners made a very positive comment about the battery refusing to die just yesterday. So miui 8 is not bad at all, the developers just messed it up.

I can't say much about redmi note 2 devices since I haven't used any. But for rn3, it's a different thing all together. Both the Chinese rom and global rom are messed up. As I'm speaking to you, the developer rom has been suspended for five weeks now. No official word on why they suspended it. The best rom for rn3 is miui 7.5.3.0. Perhaps they did not anticipate that the Xiaomi brand will grow this big. I do hope they find a solution fast

U mean Google play services?

This eu rom is not even bug free.. And d rom is ok but I experience frequent reboot anytime I try to unlock my phone. When the back light is off, and I put my fingerprint to unlock, the phone will on and hang till it reboots

Make I go download original Chinese rom jawe

vosquare:

No. Google Apps like hangouts, Google play music, chrome, Google keyboard, Google maps, photos and YouTube. These come embedded in the global rom and you can remove them.

experience is the best teacher. Nothing do you. BTW which of the eu rom did you download? Developer or stable?

Thought they already lifted the suspension two weeks ago. Redmi note 3 is listed in the supported devices.

Yes it is listed because it supports miui 8. But it has been suspended for five weeks now and counting
