[ASUS ZenFone 8] Kemez:
During intensive initial days I get 4-5 SOT and 12h use time. This is with mid heavy usage.

My battery starts today attached:

- over 7h music streaming partially on Chromecast partially bt

- over 1h YouTube (45min in browser)

- 40min Teams video call

- over 30min photos and videos in two camera apps

- 1h of Opera browsing

- Gmail, messenger, maps and all other apps in constant synchronization

- last.fm and pebble running in background

From the list you can clearly see that the only stand behavior is connected to AOD which was over 1%/h so I have disabled it.
[ASUS ZenFone 8] michelinoO:
Hello

As I understand in my daily use, mixed WiFi - 4g, you can reach 5h.30min ost. Maybe is necessary some adjustments on 4g/5g modem, it sucks a little bit of battery :) WiFi is the best, the graph is linear.

Attached my mixed 4g/WiFi experience, during today. I forgot kill YouTube, I did 2hr screen total. As you can see in WiFi the graph is linear (untill the middle), while on 4g (2nd half), the curve began to drop more steeply.
[ASUS ZenFone 8] Kemez:
Starting to learn how to use this phone.
[ASUS ZenFone 8] Kemez:
No complains at all. Can't kill the battery in one day. Most of the screen time is at evenings at lower brightness but I do work so it's my natural usage.
[ASUS ZenFone 8] Kemez:
After disabling always on screen, 5G, Google tracking and backup I easily get over 6h SOT and less than 40% battery drain during 24h.

Battery is very good and there's no doubt about it.
[ASUS ZenFone 8] babbe:
I get about 3.5h SOT for 80% battery, no 5g, no AOS, dynamic mode, screen 90hz, no gaming, no apps with heavy drain
[ASUS ZenFone 8] Shazadz:
I lost 3% over 9 hours last night while the phone was on my bedside table,this was the first night,i think the phone is deep sleeping properly?i have restricted quite alot of apps from running in background

7.5+ hours of SOT is possible. Here I reach 7 hours and 13 minutes of SOT from 90% to 8%. Ultra durable mode, no 5G, no mobile data always active in developer options, all WiFi, and Facebook services disabled. Brightness is set to auto.
[ASUS ZenFone 8] aikattx:
To those who's looking for compact phone, superb performance, 120hz display, great speaker, and good battery life, go on with Zenfone 8. Here's my SOT on my Zenfone 8 with force 90hz enabled. Cheers
[ASUS ZenFone 8] Kemez:
It looks like the last update improves the battery life quite a bit. Only free hours so no hard claims but the impression is heavy.
[ASUS ZenFone 8] aikattx:
Can you specified which “last update” you talking about?
[ASUS ZenFone 8] Kemez:
The one I got today: 30.11.51.67

I have updated the phone at 70% and got brilliant times afterwards. Over 5:15h SOT and 15h since charged with 20% still left.
[ASUS ZenFone 8] aikattx:
I can confirm this. Updated to the latest firmware and boom battery was improved !
[ASUS ZenFone 8] avatar_ro:
Could you please tell me how is the standby drain? Is it more than 1%/h during the night sleep?
[ASUS ZenFone 8] Kemez:
I get between 1,3 - 1,8 percent during night in deep sleep. Confirmed by AccuBattery.
[ASUS ZenFone 8] avatar_ro:
thank you for the reply, but could you be more specific? the drain you mentioned is per hour or per entire night?
[ASUS ZenFone 8] Kemez:
It's per hour.

You can get probably less when switching off connection of data. I am leaving the phone fully ready as I have used it during the day - just put in ultra durable mode.
[ASUS ZenFone 8] Hollyca:
Jusr for info, after watching a teardown video I realized he battery is actually 3835mah not 4000 !

Is it possible to force the op9 pro to use a 2.4ghz wifi network?

My 6 generation router have dual bands networks : 2,4 & 5.

But i can easy choose & use the 2,4 band if i want.

I only use 5 band for my 9 pro thoo.
[OnePlus 9 Pro] tathagatab:
Easy. Just set the 5GHz network to "do not autoconnect". Now it will connect only to the 2.4GHz network automatically, and to the 5GHz network only when you ask it to.

[Redmi Note 9S / Note 9 Pro (Indian Model) Question] lennyddon:
I will advise everyone not to update to

MIUI 12.0.2, android 11 cause I wish I didn't. The Gallery app is a downgrade. Plus the Work mode icon that I don't think anyone needed. There are other things I don't like and I generally consider this update to be a downgrade 🤦🏾‍♂️🤦🏾‍♂️.
[Redmi Note 9S / Note 9 Pro (Indian Model) Question] gsmyth:
I've just received the update notification and havent read much about this update apart from your post.

Could you expand any further on the things you've found wrong? Has it gotten any better or worse for you since you've updated?
[Redmi Note 9S / Note 9 Pro (Indian Model) Question] Karlmeister:
Yesterday I updated from 12.0.6.0. So far, (to me) the most annoying thing introduced in 12.0.2.0 is navigation gestures don't work with 3rd party launchers anymore (even Poco Launcher). I found a trick to use at least the "back" gesture but you come back to default launcher if you try to use "home" (swipe up from bottom border to center). So, to use all Navigation Gestures you are obligued to use system launcher.

Please help me fix the camera of my Cingular 8125 G4 device. After I flashed a new rom using soft SPL method, which I think G4 safe rom, the camera is not working. When I press the camera button, I only see the spinning circle with different colors and the screen lights up a little bit than the normal brightness and stuck it there. And after a few seconds, the phone hangs up. Need to soft reset in order to put back the device in a functional state. I don't know why this happened as I followed all the necessary steps in using softSPL upgrade method. Maybe there is something wrong in the device registry. Does anyone has the same camera problem. Please share the tricks, tweaks or anything just to bring back the camera function again.

BTW, I reflashed back the official cingular stock rom but no luck at all its the same.
[G4] ashasaur:
I see that you are using the TNT ROM, so I would to and flash UP to the newest version and see if that fixes your problem, it sounds like the camera software and drivers are not getting installed for some reason.
[G4] esdee007:
I reflashed the tnt rom but no good. Tried also to go back to the original cingular stock rom but still not working. Even in the windows\camera cannot make it. But when tried not to use the device for a some hour in standby mode, the camera works for a while then it hangs up. And go back to non-functional state.

Sir, what you think is the problem? I suspect its the software installed in the device based on what the camera behave. Or definitely the hardware itself and need to replace. Bad for me because I am living in the Philippines and as far I knew there is no service available in our country.

Thanks in advance whatever help you can give. Have a nice day.

[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] MRaximus:
Hi all,

Sitting with a Mi 11 Ultra Global that still runs with 12.0.1.0 fw. From what I've seen, based on the fw trackers, it is the least updated; China is Stable at 12.5.6, during time of writing.

That said, what are your experiences when it comes to fw updates on Global variants?

In general, I am satisfied (coming from OP 8 Pro) but there are some issues that I've read are fixed in 12.5, and can wait. The question is just how long? Experiences, please?
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] hassanaliyeh:
I totally agree with you, I came from op6t to this beast, which is awesome. I can find few bugs here and there, and I agree with others that EU is much better, but I do not want to back and restore my device all the time. and I am confident that global FW will come very soon, maybe sooner than expected (I know some people will comment back - maybe very late or later than expected :D :D ). I am pretty impressed with the performance in all aspects. so I will stay on OTA's even though I can see the number of people who are satisfied with their FW upgrade.

But you know, feeling impatient is a thing now matter what you convince your self with :D
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] ZandersUK:
I'm still on 12.0.2 no sign of updates yet I'm using global from Vodafone in the UK. I've had the phone for 2 weeks but One thing I have noticed is that my battery life has suddenly improved by about 30 percent the last couple of days. Really a massive improvement with no updates. Maybe it's learning my usage but it's been a very noticeable improvement.
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] Lacrimamortis:
In Germany, we have 12.0.6 on the Mi 11 Ultra from O2 / Telekom/ Vodafone
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] MRaximus:
Is that the EEA or Global variant? What is the ending od the build number? Global is RKAMIXM.
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] ZandersUK:

Oh Sorry, it`s the EEA Version. Shame on my Head XD

I've made the update but i've some trouble juste After.

I can't take pictures anymore. The pictures application crash miui which reboot. Someone have some issues with this new version ?
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] Sathelp:
Did you wipe cache and dalvik cache after the update? Always needed after an update. I've got no issues of this type after this week's update on mine. Always worth a reboot too.
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] dragondero:
i think they will start by china and global rom may be mi months after as usual
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] Lo_RaT_PeNaT:
With all due respect, Xiaomi's treatment of this mobile global version is a shame, I would say insulting, I had not seen a thing like it with any phone brand, the first and last time they cheated on me
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] Alcibiade:
Same feeling here.

I like the phone and the pictures/videos it takes. But the lack of updates for a flagship of this price is insulting.

Sad to say but this is my first and probably last Xioami phone unless they commit to improve this.
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] MRaximus:
Isn't that the EEA version and not Global?
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] Rsdj:
I'm not sure
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] nono52:
Hello,

I was not satisfied with version 12.0 on my ultra global version, a lot of delay I find on the finish and some bug.

Updated yesterday morning to 12.5.2, the Android auto interface still not as good as on my old Huawei P20 pro, Spotify that I am forced to launch via the phone because on the car screen it shows me error launching the application.

This morning the brightness was no adjustable, forced to restart the phone ...

I have the impression that the MIUI interface is completely behind in development.

I am not at all satisfied with the phone for the moment considering its price...

I'll do some other feedback, later
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] Sathelp:
What stock version are you on, Chinese, global or EEA? Have you thought about going to the Xiaomi EU ROM?
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] Sph1nxXx:
Hi,

Thanks for answer.

I haven't wipe anythIng because I've install the OTA update.

So... That's just an update by Xiaomi 😁

Not by TWRP or anything else.

I'm sure future update will correct this bug but when... I'm not sure to be patient enough...
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] nono52:
My version stock it's global version EU, I don't see why you would need to flash a rom for the phone to work properly
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] Sathelp:
You shouldn't, agreed but if you would want the best features for your phone from an Xiaomi approved custom ROM, why wouldn't you. Each to their own of course as we all need and use our phones in different ways.
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] nono52:
I never needed to flash one of my phones to make it work properly, I just saw that I can't even take videos anymore, the pictures work but as soon as I switch to video the phone restarts, 1000 euros for that ...
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] nono52:
Following the flash I am afraid of not having access to my banking applications and other problems related to the software unlocking and I do not speak of the possible brick of the phone
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] Sph1nxXx:
Hi !

Just to know, I'm not the only one with this crash bug. In fact, as soon as you used the GPS, the phone crash.

This problem is related to this topic : https://xdaforums.com/t/gps-problem.4284011/

No solution instead change the language in English.

Bad move from Xiaomi...
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] MRaximus:
Guys, so what rom are you experiencing these GPS related crashes?
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] portamento:
The problem is solved on MIUI 12.5.3.0 Global (RKAEUXM), that has been released today in Europe.
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] Alcibiade:
I am jealous... On the global version bought in Hong Kong (Which was released before EU), we are still stuck on 12.0.1.0

I hope it's not going to last too long...
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] MRaximus:
Well, that's actually the EEA version they're speaking about, as the EU says in the build id. Nothing global about that.

If nothing lands on the Global branch shortly, I think I will reflash with the EEA release. Just need to find information how to go about it.
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] portomaro:
Nice! Still sitting on 12.0.5.

Has anybody tried to use the flash tool from Xiaomi? I assume you can also download the latest official firmware and flash it yourself without wiping the data. You think its worth it?
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] portamento:
You are right. I'm new to Xiaomi and I just read about different kinds of Xiaomi stock ROMs:

CN = China

MI = global

IN = India

EU = Europe

RU = Russia

ID = Indonesia

MX = Mexico

I thought it was simpler: Chinese vs. global. Sorry for the confusion.
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] gavinfabl:
Check phone. I’ve just got 12.0.2 , not what I expected , but it’s a start for now.
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] hassanaliyeh:
YAAY!!! 3 more months until 12.5 then :D :D :D
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] MRaximus:
Yes, first update landed.
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] gavinfabl:
Let’s hope the interval between this and the next is much faster. Otherwise if I haven’t got 12.5.4 by end of June , I’ll sell the phone.
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] speedtripler:
That's a bit drastic

You can fastboot any rom from a computer in 15 minutes
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] gavinfabl:
Xiaomi can shove this phone up their **** You don’t spend £1k to have to flash alternative firmwares. It’s not too much to expect timely updates for a BRAND new phone.
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] MRaximus:
I hope it will. Look at the EU releases, a handful of releases on the 12.0 branch and then 12.5 landed. Wouldn't be surprised if they're in regression testing as we speak.

For me, the most important was they fixed the notification bug, now it's possible to reply from notifications. I'll hold the phone, like the camera. My alternative was S21 Ultra but went for Xiaomi as Samsung has no Apt HD support.
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] gavinfabl:
I agree. I am hoping we get to 12.5.4 or higher in a few weeks.
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] speedtripler:
Sell it then and buy an IPhone , I dgaf 🤣
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] gavinfabl:
Haha I already have the 12 Pro Max. Great phone with regular updates that occur on every phone at the same time. So if Apple can do it, others should to. That’s the standard to reach by others surely.
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] jericho246:
No, that's just you being entitled. Like @speedtripler said, you are free to sell your Mi 11 Ultra and use an iPhone or whatever. No one cares.
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] gavinfabl:
No it’s factual.
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] Alcibiade:
Thanks for the head-ups, just had a look and updated mine.

Seems like a very minor update. I wish they had grouped their updates and we get 12.5 faster... Hopefully it doesn't mean we are going to have to wait for wages for 12.5
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] Alcibiade:
Nothing to do with entitlement.

It's a flagship phone that costs quite a hefty price. It's normal to expect timely updates. If Xiaomi can't deliver, then they won't be able to progress outside China, at least on the High end segment. (Updates in China are quite frequent and rather quick)
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] vanshee:
Not even close. iOS is designed in such a way that one update can include all devices for 3-4 generations back. Android is different. Most of the times every single phone model is updated separately - different models, different hardware and so on. That's why only pixels get long term support, with most of the other brands there's even models that only get security patches. With apple it's all the same. They have how many - 12-15 phones in the last 3 years. The big brands in android market are pushing the same number or more devices per year. They have to take care of 3-5 times more devices with less resources than apple. Trust me - If apple had to push update for every single one of their devices separately they will be in the same position - people complaining of late updates. With all my respect - if the updates are so important for you than anything else you should get a Pixel or just stick to apple. Have a great day and have it in mind - it's just a phone. There's far more important things in life.

P.S - i have two mi11 ultra's and i don't plan to unlock the bootloader and tinker with them.
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] xNAPx:
what I don't like of android is that stock experience lack of customization, to have full control over your device you must unlock and root putting your phone at risk, but once you do it is a completely different world
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] jericho246:
In that case, flash China ROM or Xiaomi.EU ROM. If you're not willing to do that then it's obviously not that big of a deal, and you're just whining for the sake of whining.

🤡​
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] MRaximus:
Guys, please, can you stick to the topic about no updates to Global, and not the constant Apple vs. Google?!
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] Alcibiade:
Show a little bit of respect, will you fanboy? I am not whining, barely pinpointing that gavinfabl is right in the sense that when you pay that much for a phone you should expect proper and timely updates. Normal customer service for a "Flagship". This is not being "entitled"

Regarding flashing other ROMs, I have been doing it for the past 15 years on a lot of different devices, and it 's been fun. Right now, I happen to be working for a firm that cares a lot about security and unfortunately I cannot run my work apps with an unlocked bootloader (Even with Magisk...). So it's just not an option. Besides, realistically, as someone pointed out, you can't expect the majority of Xiaomi customers to be savvy enough to go through flashing.

Anyway, hopefully it won't be a very long wait, we'll see how good or bad Xiaomi is at that. It's my first Xiaomi, I was on Samsung before and they sucked at timely software upgrades... Happy to give the benefit of the doubt to Xiaomi.
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] gavinfabl:
I used to flash roms a lot. Over breakfast most mornings. Back then phones needed tweaking.

Now I have an expectation that they should just work with minimal effort, especially at the flagship price. I have had the Ultra since the beginning of May. It just gets a little frustrating seeing the other versions get the fixes and improvements and the dxomark camera firmware as well. I can only hope my global version will now get some quicker updates since it got its first OTA this morning to 12.0.2.
