[Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] D-m-x:
Battery really isn't great on this Tablet, I need to charge it at least once a Day. You could just try to use Better Battery Stats to identify the Rogue app, or as a last Resort Factory Reset. It could also very well be just Batter degradation.
[Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] strells:
The battery was fine for me before this incident. And it's not a single rogue app, it's all apps, which makes me think I've screwed up my general power/performance plan. Could I be stuck in Max Performance?
[Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NGowtham:
Battery drain is caused by 5.3 update. Nvidia is working on this issue and new 5.4 will be released by the end of Jan. Meanwhile you can rollback 5.2 tho.
[Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] D-m-x:
Well, if they are really going to fix the Battery then we can wait those few Days. Hopefully
[Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] strells:
This is a known issue with 5.3? Documented anywhere?
[Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NGowtham:
Found on Nvidia forums. Many users reported the same issue.

Battery Drain Issues

How do we roll back to 5.2? Thanks!
[Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redpoint73:
I have the same/similar problem. I used to be able to get 6 hours or so SOT with relatively light tasks like streaming video, web browsing, etc. On 5.3, I get about 2 hours (maybe less). And the tablet gets very warm near the power/vol buttons (didn't use to).

A few other users complained about battery drain on the 5.3 update thread:

Before proceeding do remember it will wipe all your data on the device. Do at your own risk!

1. Enable developer mode on your tablet then download & install Minimal fastboot and ADB on to your PC (you can find 'em on XDA)

2. Download Recovery image.

3. Find "NVIDIA SHIELD Tablet K1 Recovery OS Image " and the version should be 5.2

4. Download the zip file from the link above and extract them.

5. Copy the extracted file to the Minimal fastboot and ADB location.

6. Connect the device to your PC and type "adb reboot bootloader" on 'cmd-here.exe' (found on the above mentioned install location)

7. To flash this recovery image, run the following commands:

-fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

-fastboot flash boot boot.img

-fastboot flash system system.img

-fastboot flash userdata userdata.img

-fastboot flash staging blob

8. Reboot your device and you are good to go!

DM me if you have any doubt!

Sorry for jumping in, but I did reroll mine back to 5.2 a while ago (seen it elsewhere - just found this thread here) and it did nothing actually. Still huge drain no matter what I'm doing... I guess the battery just sucks and it's gone "already".
[Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NGowtham:
I downgraded mine to Marshmallow! Damn its snappy af. No unnecessary battery drain at all.
[Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ruskylfc:
Wow! Which exact version did you flash? Did you get it from that NVIDIA developer website?
[Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NGowtham:
v1.5 and yes.
[Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dape16:
I guess the battery degradation is quite fast on the Shield Tablet. Heat is really bad for a battery, and it's not good for the battery to use the device while charging either. When playing games you have to have it plugged in to get more then like 1 hour SOT. And we all know how hot it can get.
[Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redpoint73:
No joy for me either, downgrading to 5.2. First tried a "dirty flash" (using TWRP) keeping user data, and the battery drain and heat continued. Then tried a clean flash of 5.2. Maybe seemed better for a couple days (hard to tell for sure . . . maybe just placebo) but now the power drain and heat issue are back.

Strangely, I didn't have this problem on 5.2 before. And in fact, I think 5.3 was fine for a couple months, but just started draining the battery recently (past few weeks). So those fact tend to make me think it has something to do with user data.

Another observation, is that battery drain seems to be fine when viewing video files saved locally on the tablet/SD, or reading ebooks saved on the tablet/SD. But doing anything that requires WiFi, such as video streaming or even just browsing webpages, makes the battery level plumment, and the battery gets very warm.
[Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ruskylfc:
Dude! That's EXACTLY my situation. I never had this problem before on 5.2, as well as the 5.3 was fine for some time. The issue started about a month ago. I also noticed this exact same thing you said about doing anything that requires WiFi.

Another relevant point is: standby battery life is GREAT. If the battery was that bad, wasn't it supposed to drain also on standby? I'm not really into technical stuff but it makes sense to me thinking like that.
[Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tomkatt:
I'll have to give this a shot. I've tried everything else so far, including Lineage 14.1 and RR ROMs. Lineage eliminated the heat and battery drain, but has some OpenGL related issues, and of course leaves the device uncertified as an unofficial build.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Guides, News, & Discussion] birdie:
First of all, they rushed the Oreo update with tons of severe bugs and the beta testing was open to a number of complete random Joes most of whom could never do their job properly.

Secondly, they now cancelled the second Oreo update without any announcements.

Thirdly, there's zero communication with/from them - there no official Xiaomi employees/representatives either on miui or xda-dev forums, they never reply to your questions in Twitter.

This was supposed to be an exploratory OEM device running Android One - instead we've got a big f***ing mess.

To add insult to injury there are no kernel sources four months after the device release. EIS/Camera2API are still not enabled in any builds. Low light camera performance is simply horrible. There's white noise for headphones which most likely will never be solved since this phone has a broken amplifier which should have never passed QA/QC.

I'm never buying anything again from this company.

And it's not like Nougat releases were bugs free - there were at least a dozen of serious bugs. And Android System/OS power use is still enormous. Seems like Xiaomi simply doesn't care.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Guides, News, & Discussion] janchaman:
I think that you are not correct. Phone is just amazing for that price range.

Beautiful design, excellent response and many many good things.

Im on January update now rooted, with framework reset and don't have one bug.

For camera they should make better software. Because Gcam can make excellent photos compared to stock. But never the less phone is just great.

Good job xiaomi.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Guides, News, & Discussion] birdie:
Looks like you don't use this smartphone at all or use it for a handful of functions because it has tons of bugs. I'm glad you like it though.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Guides, News, & Discussion] thirakun:
i got oreo 1st update, bug only on packet data notification.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Guides, News, & Discussion] kvn95ss:
What you've pointed out is very true. I also think a lot of randos are in the beta program, but then again the beta program is entirely USELESS if there is no communication with the dev team. The individual devs too can't do anything until the source arrives, which Xiaomi claims is taking time "to make it better" which can be read as "our kernel is still not good enough" I'm not surprised that the ROMs are buggy. There is huge potential for Mi A1, but software and Xiaomi cripples it.

After source kernel is released though, I expect it to have the best and most optimal software. Until then it's just a waiting game.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Guides, News, & Discussion] coremania:
I think you miss the point that you bought a cheap 200 bucks device. Tons of bugs ??? Not really. Oreo is ok, if you can help yourself a little bit. Other expensive brands have update and even hardware issues too. Just sit back and chill. The perfect device and perfect support ? Have fun to wait for it ;)
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Guides, News, & Discussion] Knox1:
And still no kernel sources yet
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Guides, News, & Discussion] Hellrazoraj:
No kernel sources..we just lost the lineage OS devices as he lost his phone ???
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Guides, News, & Discussion] Mister-H:
There are some setbacks but come on every OEM is doing the same thing with their customers, you can't specifically say about a1. Btw the kernel sources still not released is a big blunder committed by Xiaomi.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Guides, News, & Discussion] chriskwarren:
Working great for.my wife.

I do recall the noise on social media and forums demanding the update before Jan. 1. I think Xiaomi have learned a lesson and decided to say less to temper expectations. The complaints do suggest that the update was not ready, and they should have just let folks harass them on social media and various sites and ignored them until it was ready.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Guides, News, & Discussion] yanleites:
OK, just stop crying!

Nobody made you to buy xiaomi!

It was a small company that became larger than old Not Chinese companies, they sell good stuff, their QC is better than in other companies.

A1 is first not MUI phone. It takes time to things well. I use android O and have no problems at all.

About a camera, you can't get Leica or Samsung camera for 150$!!!

Want a good camera? Buy Huawei, Samsung, iPhone... Pay 700$ and don't write things you don't understand...

BTW, if you won't buy xiaomi stuff, xiaomi won't beg you to do it!
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Guides, News, & Discussion] H.A.L. 9000:
The point isn't that the device is bad, the problem is that i could be far better than how currently is.

The camera isn't great at all, but it could be better by simply activating api2 in build.prop, how much does it cost to xiaomi? Maybe it don't give a f**k about this device.

Bugs, they could be less, of course with kernel sources there will be even Ron development.

The dac is absolute s**t, i can't understand all the reviewer that said it was stunning, the hissing sound isn't a minor issue

Update, really xiaomi, really? Releasing buggy and early update should be you marketing strategy. It suck , just in case someone is reading this.

Lack of communication on Twitter or xda, they even haven't said that all otas are blocked, xiaomi you are acting like a ****.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Guides, News, & Discussion] amithiel:
Give them a break man! They have to release a phone every 2 minutes, that's hard! I'm a first time user of xiaomi, bought it because of Android one. Hey, mistakes were made! It's my last phone for sure , now I can't do nothing more than try to enjoy this and hope for custom ROM devs fix everything (if the phone survives that long)
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Guides, News, & Discussion] _mysiak_:
To OP (and others who identify themselves): Boohoo, this phone is not perfect, boohoo, Xiaomi never again, boohoo. Again? Seriously? Isn't there something more meaningful what you can do in your life? I don't know..did you maybe consider buying another phone where you'll actually be happy and you could move on? Being in constant pain and frustration with Mi A1 is not good for your health.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Guides, News, & Discussion] macelaru:
I have no idea what's about here.

For my needs this phone is perfect. Yes, perfect, so I bought 3 of them for me/wife/daughter.

I was happy with Nougat and now I'm happy with Oreo Jan patch.

For now I just wait for sources and custom ROM avalanche to squeeze every bit of software from this hardware.

Bottom line, as usual YMMV.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Guides, News, & Discussion] mparmpas122321:
The only thing that I hate Xiaomi for is that the Mi A1 xda forum is full of idiots reposting and spamming, instead of developers showing their amazing work which could be done with the kernel sources out.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Guides, News, & Discussion] ltf_195:
Hating Xiaomi have become mainstream here, you cannot say you love this phone anymore. How many thread do we need for hating Xiaomi and bugs discussion.

I have to say that my Oreo doesnt have major bugs, only minor bugs, i still can wait for the fix. Battery life incredibly better than nougat, it stay more than 24 hours for me.

If you have major bugs like wifi or call problem, just bring it to service centre, I'm sure they can help. Or you can use Nougat while waiting for stable Oreo (UI is quite the same). MiFlash tools is very easy to use too. (I think you need to backup your data if you want to downgrade because of difference encryption)

I think because of this phone so easy to unlock/relock bootloader (without wiping data) plus with magisk undetectable root, its impossible to tell which bugs (in xda & MIUI forum) came from root or unroot device. I'm not saying all the bugs came from root device, but it make it worse. Maybe that cause Xiaomi panic and pull back update, just maybe.

I didnt see when someone post a bug and the first question is "did you unlock bootloader?" every bugs post usually follow with hating this phone. All I want to see is workaround for the bugs while waiting it to be fix.

I hold my update for 2 week because of all these bugs post, but after I update my phone, its not that bad. Those thread are not reliable anymore. Why?
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Guides, News, & Discussion] neojith:
Welcome to the club..

And on cue paid xiaomi trolls arrive to say Xiaomi is god, buy another phone.. ???

Sell the phone & buy another.. Thats the only option.. Mi's inhouse development team is sh*t.. I don't think there's hope for this phone..
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Guides, News, & Discussion] ltf_195:
See? This why people who has working phone remain silent. you cannot share something good about this phone. In the end all these threads become less and less informative. Anyway, if you think there is no hope, why you still here?
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Guides, News, & Discussion] JockeSve:
If You buy a phone for $150-$200 You really can't be that stupid/naive that You expect same build quality, same camera, same support, same update interval, same bug fix speed, etc as a $600-$900 phone??

Software development is expensive and cheap phones doesn't pay big dev teams!

This phone is my sixth "cheap China phone" and second Xiaomi and I can promise that the updates are miles better than from many others in same price range!

I don't have any major "bugs" or bigger annoyances in my phone (currently running Oreo Dec 1 2017) and it works great as my daily driver.

The small issues are there yes, but please show me a phone in same price range that's free from bugs.

So from my point of viev: A1 is good phone for that price!

[Moto Z Play Questions & Answers] citytrader:
I have both phones, Z Play and Galaxy A7 2017, Z Play is the one I like more because of audio, response (not lag at all compared with the A7), etc, only the camera in A7 is better than Z Play but something is impeding me to use as a daily driver: external SDCARD Encryption, how can it be possible?... I have EX. SDCARD Enc enable option in my A7 and there is no performance impact, why Lenovo didn't do that too?... is it dependent to a chip or something like that? unbelievable to be honest.
[Moto Z Play Questions & Answers] Artim_96:
Try to format it on device and see if you get asked if you want it to be formatted for media or for apps. Choose the latter one
[Moto Z Play Questions & Answers] Zeljko1234:
Encryption is good way to lose your data if something happens to your device or perform factory reset.

Maybe Android solved that issue? Login to Google acc will gain access to encrypted sd card in another device?
[Moto Z Play Questions & Answers] citytrader:
Thanks for your reply, in the screenshot of my A7 I have the option to encrypt or decrypt my SD with a simple click maintaining your data (the microSD is not formated), never lost information and of course, before you change the phone you should decrypt the data otherwise you will loose it.

This function is excellent because if someone stole your phone, your pictures or whatever you have in your phone will be protected, I really like the moto phone, but with this functionality is impossible, last year I got my phone stolen from the metro, so this stuff happens.
[Moto Z Play Questions & Answers] Artim_96:
Well this is a Samsung only feature. Android can encrypt SD cards since 6.0, but that's only if you format it for storing apps. You most likely won't be able as your normal SD card. If you want to take it to another device you'll have to format it. I'm theory it's possible to take the key from your old phone and implement it into your new one so you could just keep on using it, but that's just theory and would be quite difficult.
[Moto Z Play Questions & Answers] citytrader:
Something I don't understand is if Samsung did it why Lenovo for example didn't yet... I really like this Z Play but the encryption is a big limitation for me.
[Moto Z Play Questions & Answers] Zeljko1234:
If you remember to do that and/or still have the old phone ;)
[Moto Z Play Questions & Answers] citytrader:
That is ok, but what happen if you phone is stolen!?... are you happy if anyone can check your pictures for example? :mad:
[Moto Z Play Questions & Answers] Zeljko1234:
Depends what kind of pictures :) Anyway, I agree with you just giving another point of view ;)
[Moto Z Play Questions & Answers] Artim_96:
Because they chose to use stock Android with little to no modifications. Samsung on the other hand cripples down Android to something unuseable. Using their encryption methods will kill off all possibilities of nothing modifying since TWRP can't handle them. I don't know if they finally switched to the standard methods but at least it was so on my Note 4.

So the only two options you have is to stick to that Samsung garbage or just get an app that can create encrypted folders. That way not the whole SD card will be encrypted but everything you want to
[Moto Z Play Questions & Answers] citytrader:
That is why I like a lot Moto, for example I have enabled the pattern lock at boot, it means that even to access TWRP you need to pattern unlock, at this point I can put all the important files in the internal memory. Is this safe in this way?... it will be not encrypted but there wont be a possibility to access the file system, am I correct?

I tried EDS and the file write speed is about 2MB/s, without encryption, the internal memory speed is 50MB/s and the external is 20MB/s...
[Moto Z Play Questions & Answers] Artim_96:
They are encrypted. The whole /data partition is encrypted. The internal storage (that part you can access even without root) lives under /data/media/0. Other mountpoints like /sdcard in TWRP is just how it's made accessible, try are only links. That's why you can't just format or change file system of /data in TWRP. If you "wipe" it it'll tell you it deletes everything but /data/media. So if you have bootup security enabled it's impossible as far as I know to get to those files. Sure, someone would be able to flash custom ROMs through fastboot but I doubt it's possible to make one that can give you access without password. And the key is stored inside a SoC in a digital part that can't just be written and can't be read from outside.
[Moto Z Play Questions & Answers] Zeljko1234:
Booting into fastboot and flashing different recovery will probably get rid of your pattern protection.
[Moto Z Play Questions & Answers] citytrader:
I don't believe it could be very easy to do, take a look at the screenshot I did when booting the phone, there is a block that needs to be decrypted and I think that block is encrypted independently of the recovery you have... that is only my speculation...
[Moto Z Play Questions & Answers] Artim_96:
No. The only pattern protection that can be circumvented is the one on the lockscreen. Circumventing the one for bootup protection is impossible for all I know.
[Moto Z Play Questions & Answers] Zeljko1234:
Ok, good to know. Thx.
[Moto Z Play Questions & Answers] techware7:
Why would you want to encrypt SD card? If it gets corrupted for any reason and the only way to view info is from a PC (since Android won't mount it) then your data is toast...
[Moto Z Play Questions & Answers] citytrader:
If you lose your phone or someone steal it, how do you protect the info? Is it supposed that the info in the card is backuped, so if there is corruption on SD (never happened in my A7) shouldn't be a problem.
[Moto Z Play Questions & Answers] KrisM22:
a) I use my phones such that if anything on the phone is put up on a billboard, I won't care. Course some days I flash 5 different ROMs... :|

b) you might try Lenovo's forums and see if you get any ideas there...
