[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 [Snapdragon] ROMs, Kernels, Re] monksanand:
Battery consumption & other!!

Just updated to 5.7.2 yesterday.

Yes i had earlier said that the GPS was not working. But YES!!! it does work only when you are on the move.

If you sitting in 1 position and not travelling it waits for a lock to GPS servers. WIERD!!! :confused: :confused:

Donno if it was intended to work this way but none the less.

On the move while driving it does work even while in maps offline mode. So KUDOS!! :good: :good: :good: :good:

Respect to (Resurrection Remix) for a brilliant ROM. Awesome ROM!!

My 2 cents,

I have realised that the battery consumption even after not considering the bluetooth bug is still a lot more.

For a 4000Ah battery while on MIUI I used to easily reach more than 1.5days easily from 100% to 5%(approx) with wifi, Bluetooth & dual sim's on thru the day.

Our ROM (since its being used by me also) has not been able to give enough Juice. I have made system profiles to automate my shutting of bluetooth automatically when i connect to my office Wifi & HomeWifi. And make an effort to see that the bluetooth is switched off soon as I finish using it.

Also what I loved in MIUI was the way the over night battery consumption used to take place.

I never needed to charge my phone over night spoiling my battery with over charging it over 100% so i charge my phone in the morning at office. In MIUI over-night I used to loose a max of 5% battery. It was almost exactly just the way I left the phone.

I loose approx 15-20% of battery without using the phone. (I would definitely like some help here regarding some kind of a settings/kernel setting that i need to put in place for getting a better working battery consumption)

Next I would like to find out some techniques for getting a few aesthetic UI options on the ROM.

1) I love the way the Sony UI is and i love their "App Drawer" different page horizontal. I understand even google with Nougat is going with the current style app drawer but heck its very confusing and no customisation, and HATE the MIUI no app drawer, cos I love live widgets)

Found the way to go about it from here.

Now going to install xposed framework and fix some odd looking issues and I'm sorted.

2) CRT effect lock & unlock. If not Unlock definitely during Locking the phone.

3) Im currently using the Blur Purple for CM13/CM12.X by Droid chef

Hoping to be able to get that blur style effect on my Notifications bar/other places. It doesn't work. So I'm using it just for the FONT. Love that font. I would love to invest sometime and get this up an running but work 2 jobs a day and sincerely have no idea of where/which guide to follow to be able to get these tweeks/mods up and running.

I did try Xposed as i was using the "Pure CM13 Rom" earlier, until i shifted to this "Resurrection remix" ROM as they give all those Xposed features for modifications, in the ROM itself.

Everything WORKS!!

1) Fingerprint Scanner (Quite Good =MIUI)

2) GPS Works (Locks onto a signal for driving directions only when ur on the move & not while standing, but does show accurate location even while standing)

3) Battery (apart from the above mention problems -- Everything works fine No -2% & 50% problems here, even thou i did flash the Radon Kernel when i was at 5.7.1ROM thinking GPS will get fixed if i flashed it. I dint flash again after updating to 5.7.2)

4000mAh battery charges back quite fast with my 2.0A charger showing charging at 1500mAh charging 0-100% in 1.25hours.

Thanks a lot
