[Xiaomi Mi 11i / 11X Pro / Redmi K40 Pro+] kapul4:
Hello, this is the battery graph of my daily use on MI 11i with basic apps like whatsapp and facebook. Situation has been the same since the day I bought the phone but I was patiently waiting to see will MIUI 14 fix it but it didn't. I should have returned it the very fast day I bought it. I didnt expect 700 euro phone will have faulty software or battery out of the box. I have to turn on airplane mode during night since if I don't "Other" will drain 50% battery overnight, also I can't reach the end of the day without charging. Overall phone is not useable and I am wondering is there an battery upgrade that I can install by myself? I had to install battery monitor and it reports that under kernel wakelocks, "RMNET_DFC" is constantly waking up the phone, there is nothing about it on google.

Start by checking the automatic startup of apps. Also remove or disable unnecessary apps like ad-generating MSA.

Helo, I removed quiet a bit of apps like msa and joyose now since it looks like they got reinstalled by the update, and it seems the RMNET_DFC wakelock has been almost completely fixed, over night it used to be 7-8h of usage, but now its 40-1 hour. Another thing still persists, and that is "SNS_SMD Wakeup" in "Sensors" tab according to the GSAM. It is constantly waking up the phone. I have linked that process to google play services by the help of other forum, so i tried to remove permision like using sensors and things like that from play services but it didn't seem to help.
[Xiaomi Mi 11i / 11X Pro / Redmi K40 Pro+] NOSS8:
What rom are you using (full name)?
[Xiaomi Mi 11i / 11X Pro / Redmi K40 Pro+] kapul4:
MIUI Global 14.0.1(TKKEUXM) Both rmnet_dfc and sns_smd have been present since MIUI12 from when i bought the phone.
[Xiaomi Mi 11i / 11X Pro / Redmi K40 Pro+] NOSS8:
Mi 11i EEA	Stable Beta	Recovery	V14.0.1.0.TKKEUXM
[Xiaomi Mi 11i / 11X Pro / Redmi K40 Pro+] kapul4:
That is correct
[Xiaomi Mi 11i / 11X Pro / Redmi K40 Pro+] NOSS8:
maybe the beta version is the problem
[Xiaomi Mi 11i / 11X Pro / Redmi K40 Pro+] kapul4:
As mentioned earlier, i had the same problem since MIUI12/Android 11
[Xiaomi Mi 11i / 11X Pro / Redmi K40 Pro+] NOSS8:
Try to test all sensors.

my phone/features/multi tap on kernel version.

The CIT menu, you can perform the tests.

The 3 dots at the top right open additional tests
[Xiaomi Mi 11i / 11X Pro / Redmi K40 Pro+] kapul4:
I have only some basic stuff in there and they seem to be working fine. This is my drain overnight with the mentioned wakelock
[Xiaomi Mi 11i / 11X Pro / Redmi K40 Pro+] NOSS8:
Disable double tap and pocket mode to test.
[Xiaomi Mi 11i / 11X Pro / Redmi K40 Pro+] kapul4:
Both are off, also found out that sns_smd is something related to motion detection. Not sure does that help
[Xiaomi Mi 11i / 11X Pro / Redmi K40 Pro+] NOSS8:
There is a sensor problem, is the phone still under warranty?
[Xiaomi Mi 11i / 11X Pro / Redmi K40 Pro+] kapul4:
Yes, i thought it is hardware problem since start. First xiaomi i had,note 4 for 3-4 years, was great phone. No issues with software or build quality. After that i got note 9 pro. Very first day, power button got stuck and i had to use double tap to wake up since i had to send it back to repair and be left without a phone on the job. After half year of use the button caused short circuit and i had to send it to repair, but since repair takes over a month, i decided to buy one of the best they had so got mi11i even thou i dont play games and sold the note 9 pro after it came from repair. This one again the very first day i got it, i noticed bad battery life. This will be my last xiaomi phone for sure
[Xiaomi Mi 11i / 11X Pro / Redmi K40 Pro+] nabulsi08:
Hey

I have battery drain on MIUI 14.1 Indonesian too. "Others" is taking much battery. Do you think I should try downgrading? To which version?

Or did you find a solution?

Thanks in advance.
[Xiaomi Mi 11i / 11X Pro / Redmi K40 Pro+] kapul4:
I think that the battery is faulty. I tried to keep the screen on non stop until it drains the battery and i had 3.5 hours of screen on time. "Other" wasnt in the battery tab anymore while phone was awake.
[Xiaomi Mi 11i / 11X Pro / Redmi K40 Pro+] nabulsi08:
I don't think so because the Phone isn't that old or hardly used by me. Anyway, if downgrading doesn't work, I'll try changing the battery.
[Hardware Hacking General] dvD89:
Hello everyone.

I unsoldered my internal storage which is an UFS 2.1 with bga 153.

Do u know if it does exist some usb reader for UFS where i can solder my UFS?

And in that case maybe i can read with some software?
[Asus Zenfone 9] sakun-ice:
I am trying to manually update to the latest firmware released at the end of February. I have placed the zip file in the root of the phone and when I reboot I do not get any notification. The version I'm trying to install is later than the one I have (.88 to .100) and I have disabled all Magisk modules.
[Asus Zenfone 9] Veiranx:
When you say root, do you mean the actual root (/) location or do you mean the default 'home' (containing Music, Video, Download, etc.) location? I'm pretty sure you only need to put it in the 'home' location.
[Asus Zenfone 9] sakun-ice:
Home directory
[Asus Zenfone 9] Darkmasterhk:
Something seems off with .100 I tried updating using sideload before and it refused, telling me my current version .88 is apparently newer and downgrades are not allowed.
[Asus Zenfone 9] DankDeuxez:
When i did it i just downloaded the file to the default folder. Presumably "downloads". So that shouldnt be an issue.

According to asus own guide to manually update the phone you also need to remove all the Google accounts saved to the device under: Settings -> passwords and accounts (something along those lines).

I did this and after a reboot the phone asked if i wanted to update.
[Asus Zenfone 9] sakun-ice:
That method doesn't work. Neither leaving the file in downloads nor in the root.
[Asus Zenfone 9] sakun-ice:
Nobody?
[Asus Zenfone 9] DankDeuxez:
And you are 100% certain there are no Google accounts on the phone? Thats what caused all of my problems. Remove ALL the accounts on the device, google or not. Should work, if it doesnt then good luck.
[Asus Zenfone 9] jons99:
what I did is

1. flash the rom in twrp

2. flash twrp zip

3. reboot to twrp and flash magisk apk

ignore any mounting errors it's normal
[Asus Zenfone 9] sakun-ice:
Thank you. I had asked if you could flash the zip rom from twrp because I wasn't sure. Is it necessary to flash 2 times to install in slot A and B?
[Asus Zenfone 9] jons99:
once is enough we can only use one slot at a time

I don't want to stay official for some reason. but with xperia 5ii it is the same official or unofficial maintenance because the device tree is already working stably. the rest is in the source rom so I still update regularly when there are new modifications

I flashed this rom on my device and boot successfully.Later, I flashed the KernelSU-boot.img you provided, and installed the KernelSU app, but I couldn't grant permission, it's still unroot.

How should I do?

Hello i have the Japanese version of the phone, can i flash the rom via adb without unlocking bootloader?, In los group one of the people said i cant unlock coz i have to pay to unlock
[Sony Xperia 5 II ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] tuan94_bg:
1. You can't flash the rom via adb without unlocking bootloader

2. As far as I know, the Japanese versions have to use the service to unlock the bootloader
[Sony Xperia 5 II ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] saifulmenon:
Service like i have to pay or i can just unlock normally by putting the code ?
[Sony Xperia 5 II ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] Senz9090:
You must pay for it, no other way.
[Sony Xperia 5 II ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] mhys33:
Hello,

I've unlocked my bootloader and I'm running this ROM with my SOG02. But for some reason I'm not able to get the same camera functionality as before in some video apps such as mcpro24fps. Because apparently it needs to detect the device as SOG02 or AS72 in the app which uses build.model. So if I'm able to edit build.prop will it fix this issue? Please let me know. TY in advance :)
[Sony Xperia 5 II ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] kopap:
Just got a second hand 5 ii. Does the Rom pass safetynet? And wich Sony cam app version should I use ?
[Sony Xperia 5 II ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] saraththaliyil:
The Rom passes safetynet.
[Sony Xperia 5 II ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] majorwedgy:
So far so good on the whole. Couple of annoying bugs so far. Icon doesn't change when charging, so looks like charge doesn't work, despite the percentage counting up. Auto dim, doesn't seem to be as good as it could be. Camera button doesn't work, but assistant seems to.

Add speaker phone not working to the list of issues, doesn't connect to my watch either for calls, car hands free works fine.

As a positive, Google pay and Pokémon go both work meaning safety net is fine and the torch is full brightness, unlike the stock ROM. biometrics don't work on the Barclays app but seem to work on other banking apps.

Do you need to install the kernel listed, separate to the ROM install? What benefits does it bring?
[Sony Xperia 5 II ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] kopap:
Rom is fine one bug that I found .if I am listening to Spotify on wired headphones and I receive a notification from another app, Spotify stops .if a push play again music comes both from speakers and headphones.the only way to fix it is by rebooting the phone
[Sony Xperia 5 II ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] Promethilaus:
Very weird speaker phone and the battery icon work perfectly fine here. Confirmed safetynet as soon I had set everything up and the Camera button works inside the Sony camera app but not outside but Im also wondering what does the kernel bring to the table for me personally this rom is a keeper once I have installed the rom to the 2nd partition and added my extensive list of apps back 😂. Can't confirm root works since I haven't and am not desiring root as all the features I want are already here. Furthermore, WhatsApp didn't cry about me using a custom ROM which is a good sign though I'm beginning to wonder if that is a safetynet thing or custom ROM thing. Finally it seems this device is recognised as a Google pixel as Google Photos allows me to do Infinite backup without the Pixelify Magisk Module which is very nice!!
[Sony Xperia 5 II ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] majorwedgy:
Very nice! Might try flashing again in that case, side from issues above, this is much better than stock ROM. I had worlds of issues getting slots installing correctly etc. Glad it works for you... Hope for me :)
[Sony Xperia 5 II ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] majorwedgy:
Did you install 17/5 build?
[Sony Xperia 5 II ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] Promethilaus:
If you still have your speaker and battery issues let me know and Ill see if I can help my telegram is @Promethilaus
[Sony Xperia 5 II ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] Promethilaus:
I installed this VoidUI-Tiramisu-pdx206-13.0-20230517-0642-COMMUNITY.zip aka the latest version this was all done from my Chromebook obviously first I flashed twrp then wiped the storage did ADB sideload then sideloaded and installed the rom I've had no issues so far just as I said need to flash to 2nd partition keep in mind that you will need to reflash twrp if your gonna reinstall because this rom replaces it with the pixel experience recovery
[Sony Xperia 5 II ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] kopap:
go to setting /system / buttons .you can set to open the camera with the camera key .you need to set sony camera app as default. after that it works even with the screen off/locked
[Sony Xperia 5 II ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] Promethilaus:
Instead of editing my original post I'll put it here so it is more plain I thought @majorwedgy meant when the phone is on the battery icon doesn't appear but I've found he means when the phone is off which he is correct about - it just doesn't appear furthermore after further use the auto-brightness I've also found to be pretty awful as well making me think either my phone was broken somehow or my eyes were playing tricks on me overall minor issues which don't affect my opinion of this rom especially as I hate auto-brightness anyways also if you have always on display enabled the screen doesn't turn off it just always is that black screen with the charge and clock
[Sony Xperia 5 II ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] Promethilaus:
Just done that thankyou very much
[Sony Xperia 5 II ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] kopap:
another issue is adaptive sd storage .the phone keeps crashing and rebooting after entering pin on boot
[Sony Xperia 5 II ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] Promethilaus:
Indeed I also found this problem upon trying to format the SD card for internal storage the device rebooted

SOLUTION: Remove the SIM tray and then plug it back in without the SIM card
[Sony Xperia 5 II ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] kopap:
as SD adaptive or sd storage .its different the two
[Sony Xperia 5 II ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] Promethilaus:
As adaptive normal SD card access is fine
[Sony Xperia 5 II ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] majorwedgy:
Spot on, missed torch via power from my Xiaomi, very happy to have it back on here. Honestly so happy with this ROM. Not perfect, neither was stock, but this is worse in areas that don't matter. Thank you op for your great work
[Sony Xperia 5 II ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] Promethilaus:
Indeed, even if the op never continued it still would be fine but I hope he does and is able to fix these issues because I really like this rom
[Sony Xperia 5 II ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] majorwedgy:
Minnie annoyance is can't disable the assistant button or repurpose it. The option is there, but doesn't seem to make any difference. Was going to reflash but think I'll just wait for next update and hope it fixes my issues
[Sony Xperia 5 II ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] Promethilaus:
Perhaps might be a good idea
[Sony Xperia 5 II ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] majorwedgy:
Just found this has unlock only when screen is on, which I'm very pleased to see and was a massive annoyance on the stock ROM. Love it, op you have PayPal account for ppl to chuck coffee money your way?
[Sony Xperia 5 II ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] Promethilaus:
After some more thorough testing I have also found that battery goes down quicker on this rom then any other I've used. Instead of my phone lasting till 9pm with my work load it lasts until 4pm which is a bit worrying. More then usable but if you could fix the battery drain issue if possible that would be great. To anyone else who sees this; this rom is a great ROM with great features however there is many small issues with this as well. If your willing to deal with these go ahead and install this rom and you will have a great experience if not then I recommend using lineage os as it is officially supported on this device at least until an update comes
[Sony Xperia 5 II ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] Promethilaus:
Weird issue not fixed by dark mode nothing major just thought It was worth telling you
[Sony Xperia 5 II ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] majorwedgy:
I couldn't get lineage to install with gapps, otherwise would have used it
[Sony Xperia 5 II ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] kopap:
Lineage os needs mindthegapps. Had no issue with lineage and gapps instalation
[Sony Xperia 5 II ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] majorwedgy:
yeah i used mind but it says not enough space
[Sony Xperia 5 II ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] kopap:
flash your phone with newflasher and your stock rom , after that flash lineage and mindthegapps , and you need to reboot to recovery after flashing lineage then you flash mindthegapps
[Sony Xperia 5 II ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] tuan94_bg:
there will be an update soon. i am still trying to fix libperfmgr sepolicy to fix this situation.
[Sony Xperia 5 II ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] tuan94_bg:
I'm also looking for a solution to replace it but haven't found one yet. qpr2 has broken the assist key customization so there's nothing you can do about it except map it to another option
[Sony Xperia 5 II ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] majorwedgy:
If you have a PayPal account will chuck you some beer money
[Sony Xperia 5 II ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] SDJK10:
The icon on the status bar blinks when I pull it down and the network traffic monitoring disappears and quickly reappears（I don't know why I can't upload the screen record)

What's more,the information in the upper left corner of the status bar is too far away from the edge of the screen,I tried AOSPMOD but it didn't solved my problem.

And I suggest to add a function that can diable the camera key in the game space,I sometimes press it when I got excited.

I feel sorry if my reply disturbs you.My english is not good some of the content is provided by the translator.
[Sony Xperia 5 II ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] teacherc:
nice ROM
[Sony Xperia 5 II ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] Promethilaus:
indeed it has recently been updated, havent tested it yet as this phone is my daily driver but will do at some point
[Sony Xperia 5 II ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] kopap:
better battery life with last update
[Sony Xperia 5 II ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] majorwedgy:
Another update this morning to try, only 2 apps have caused any issues with this ROM. First is Barclays where it refuses to use biometrics and is the only one of dozens I've used. The other is PureGym , which is because of the pixel underpinnings, as my pixel 6a used to give exact same error -app crash after turn on Bluetooth
[Sony Xperia 5 II ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] Promethilaus:
Is safetynet passing?
[Sony Xperia 5 II ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] kopap:
Saferynet work same with gpay .i am on last update .probably barclays looking for locked bootloader ?
[Sony Xperia 5 II ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] Promethilaus:
The small amount of research ive done suggests it only cares if it can detect root and also some have said to get an olddr version of the app and prevent it from updating
