[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Questions & Answers] corkiejp:
Accubattery only estimates the capacity based on charging cycles while the phone is powered on.

To get accurate estimate from that you would need to do repeat charge cycles of zero to 100%

^^^ Not really recommended.

My estimated capacity is 3,707 mAh, after 53 sessions (not doing the above).

But my health Battery Capacity graph has peaked at close to 4,000.

Your pictures would not load for me, so haven't looked at them.

But I say you would have do the same with repeat USB meter readings (full charge cycles) to get an accurate estimate of capacity.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Questions & Answers] Ganapatya:
All tests performed have been complete charge cycles (100% to 0% and full charge 0-100%, phone off).
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Questions & Answers] corkiejp:
Have a look of accubattery results after more than a month has passed. (you only have 1 session in pictures).

It only gets good estimates after repeated charge cycles (with the device on). If your device is powered off accubattery , can not monitor the charge applied.

[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Questions & Answers] Ganapatya:
It is more reliable the measurement given by the usb tester with the phone off, than the one estimated by an application that needs to have the phone on with the consequent battery charge expenditure that can alter the reliability of the charge measurement. The successive measurements of accubattery only reflect arithmetic means of the different charges (total or partial charges)
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Questions & Answers] corkiejp:
[MENTION=5238273]Ganapatya[/MENTION] Only as good as the quality of the USB Tester in use.

Plus while your testing battery in your phone, you will never get a full charge on the battery.

Because android never charges the battery completely, or completely drains it. No matter what the percentages show.

https://android.stackexchange.com/q...ity-of-a-battery-in-mah-received-fake-battery

How does a phone battery percentage display work?

So 400 mAh your missing, would be accounted by the 5% on both ends.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Questions & Answers] n3w0rk:
Thats what accubattery says on my charge. 36% until 100%
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Questions & Answers] Desmanto:
My last test for SOT and charging, show me -7940 mAh Charged at 1%. So consider another 99% as 3960 mAh; 100% only -3980 mAh. OMG, Xiaomi has put negative-capacity battery at my phone! :eek:

Hahaha, Joking aside. That show us sometimes the reading can be off the chart. After I charge it to full, the charged capacity shows me around ~3900 mAh. Video tear down from various sources, also show the label 4000 mAh. There is no evidence to believe it is real 4000 mAh, unless we tear it down and test it by ourself. And even then, it doesn't guaranteed that our test is accurate, as other have pointed out. That is too much for most users out there. We got to believe what they give us.

A rule of thumb is compare the average SOT without gaming to another user. Then compare the average SOT of another phone with the similar spec (example Asus ZMPM1) and scale the battery capacity to the SOT achieved. Although battery consumption relies on so many factor, but the average should give a baseline. If it doesn't differ much, then we can hopefully believe the claim of capacity made.

I am getting around 10-12 hours of SOT with my usage (almost no gaming). Other users got almost similar average result, so this should point to the same average of 10 hours SOT. Some might get better, some might get worse, depends on their usage and many factors.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Questions & Answers] Steve_max:
You got 3600 mAh at 5V. This is 3600*5=18000 mWh or 18 Wh.

You battery stores 4000 mAh at 3.7V. This is 4000*3.7=14800 mWh or 14.8 Wh. Or: you fully charged your 4000 mAh battery and used 3.2Wh to keep your phone running during this time. No problems here.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Questions & Answers] Ganapatya:
I get 7-8 SOT (not heavy usage). Should i open RMA?
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Questions & Answers] lukesan:
Absolutely right. The capacity given is at the nominal voltage of Lithium Ion which sometimes gets calculated at 3.7V or 3.8V. Try to measure with a QC2.0 charger and see the voltage go up to about 9V ... your measured capacity will be even less then. The only way to get a good calculation of these things is like quoted. Take into account that the charger control IC probably also has a loss of 10 to 15% then our batts are not a scam at all.

Be happy with the redmi note 5 batt, my S7 stays in the drawer since I have this phone.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Questions & Answers] Desmanto:
The are a lot of factors to consider. If you use your phone outdoor, the brightness might have been almost maximum all the time, this reduce SOT significantly. Bad signal also one of the battery killer. If you use mostly indoor, auto brightness with slider less than 50% and good signal; SOT 10 hours within 1,5 - 2 days should be easy. (no gaming, gaming also drain more battery). But if you use GPS a lot, outdoor, and bad signal, it is even possible to get only 5 hours SOT.

If you don't get the result considering all other factors are standard, you should check the wakelock, whether your phone is awake for most of the time.

I have moved to RR for about a week, and suddenly my SOT drop to half of usual. After quick check using BetterBatteryStat, it is Whatsapp accelerometer wakelock and play services significant motion wakelock. The key is if you open whatsapp and exit by pressing home (not back back until exit), it will lock the accelerometer and keep it awake till your battery die. The only way to prevent this wakelock is to exit properly using back button all the way till exit. I am still investigating this and haven't found a proper solution.

For play services, I have tried to clear data, but it still wakelock the sensor. Updated to 12.8.74, still wakelock. I know that the significant motion is used by the user activity API, but it should not wakelock like that. I ever use it to log the data using Automagic (when still in MIUI), but didn't get any permanent wakelock, battery life still good (10+ hours). But last night I tried to switch into airplane during sleep. Battery at 88%. Wake up in the morning, battery still at 88%! What? The night before, it will lose about 12-20 %. So the culprit is somewhere related to the network. Other reported that standby drain during sleep at night is only around 4-5%, so i must have something else causing the drain; as my signal are mostly 3-4 bars.

This confirms that the play services is using low power sensor. I see that the sensor only use 0,18 mA. So even used up for 10 hours, it only use 1,8 mAh (which is not even 1% - 40 mAh). Yeah, i excluded all other power consumption including the OS itself, but this simply tells that the wakelock is the culprit.

For whatsapp, it has been there since last year, but I wonder why I don't experienced it in MIUI. Probably MIUI have the way to supress the sensor usage or any other way. I have tried to change a lot of setting and permission, but the wakelock still there. Today, after updated RR to 20170723 build, the wakelock disappear, both whatsapp and play services. Maybe it is suspended or something else. I will continue to monitor what is going on.

For your case, it might be caused by any of the above or maybe something else. You have to check it first.

On the Viber settings, I found an option to turn on the functionality that opens the links internally, and I switched between on and off without any difference.

Anyone has ideas of what can be? Thanks in advance

MIUI 10 Global Beta 8.7.5 adds anti-rollback protection: Do not downgrade your Redmi Note 5 Plus/Pro

Many users that have tried to downgrade their Redmi Note 5 Pro smartphones without knowing about this restriction have now ended up with a bricked device.

Xiaomi says that those who have updated devices to MIUI 10 Global Beta ROM 8.7.5 or ROM afterwards, should not try to downgrade the ROM of your device. “Otherwise, your device will be bricked, which may also affect your device stability. If your device has been bricked, please go to the nearest Mi service centre for help,” says the company.

So think what you think about this Anti Rollback system ??

A very good reason to dump miui forever.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 / 5 Plus Questions & Answers] Saicoth:
I think they should have warned users about this, I was really lucky I didn't downgraded, I'm on MIUI 10 Global Beta and today even got an update, MIUI 10 has many bugs and I really did think about downgrading to miui9 but I choose to stay on miui 10 for another 12-13 days and unlock bootloader afterwards.

I'd hoped Xiaomi would offer an instant unlock to those with bricked devices. I would have bricked my phone on purpose for an instant unlock :p

Most of brands do actually the same and inclusive since nougat to MM downgrade it´s not an option for devices running stock roms so that is present from previous versions; Samsung, Huawei, Honor and many more, only with some tricky and unauthorized method this can do it. But for Xiaomi unlocked with a custom recovery and running custom roms this is possible at any time.

I tried following on my AT&T Tilt to get the connection to internet using Bluetooth and these steps work with out any changes to registry values etc or hack.

1. Start Internet Sharing program under your windows folder in Tilt.

2. Chose the connection type as Bluetooth and Select Connect.

3. In your laptop/PC, under My Bluetooth Places, find your phone(pair it etc) and double click on phone to go to services of phone.

4. You should see Network Access Point, right click and Connect.

5. This started showing me a LAN connection(Bluetooth LAN access server driver) with 2.1 Mbps speed.

Hello there,

I currently own the iPhone 7 and the owned the iPhone 6S before and in between bought the Galaxy S8 and didn't like it and sold it within a month. I love the iPhone and its gestures and smoothness, but I think it's getting boring, and the only phone I'd love to own is the pure Android experience which is the Pixel 2 XL.

My only concerns after reading and watching reviews are the screen issues, blue tint and touch sensitivity, are they a major issues? and are there any other issues that I need to be aware of before buying?

Another question, is the Pixel 2 XL as smooth as the ios?

Sorry for the long post and I'd be happy if anyone discussed this with me :D

Nope, but then again, what is? I get fantastic battery life being stock rooted. I get monthly updates and support for 3 years, and the UI is fast and smooth.
