Light-medium use: 4-4.5h screen on time Heavy use: 2-3h screen on time SOV35, Oreo (April 2019 patch)

Cannot survive for long... Maybe at 2-3h screen on time maximum. Mind that I have a reconditioned one.

It's late 2020, and I bought a reconditioned Sony XZs as for my use in my primary SIM (for calls). I have good standby drain here. Probably better than my Mi A2 Lite (drops at 1-2%; sometimes 0% drop). My unit is a debloated open-lined SOV35, Oreo (with April 2019 patch).

Downgrade is recommended. But almost all base from 10.0.13.0 up to 11.0.5.0 will be fine. I'm using either 10.0.8.0 or 11.0.4.0 for flashing ROMs for now.

Try wipe data/cache from stock recovery. If no luck, then try the EDL short circuit test point method and reflash stock ROM again with MiFlash. If all fails, go to service center. Test point EDL needs very short wire (or tweezers), your regular USB cable and Qualcomm Drivers. Disconnect battery...

Stock Pie, Custom ROM Pie, Stock Android 10, MIUI (and possibly GSI) are not supported with this kernel. It may boot, yes, but has problems such as camera and WiFi not working.

Just flash stock back via fastboot and MiFlash and flash custom ROM again with their instructions followed. And BTW, use offain's TWRP for flashing custom ROMs (most).

Depends on the banking apps you use. Some do not have problems with rooted, custom ROM and/or failed SafetyNet; some will crash with either these three conditions.

I'm on 0.7 with this and I have this installed and used for almost two weeks now and seems stable for daily driving.

Mini OpenGApps should be fine, at most. As a custom ROM user, I don't use stock OpenGApps here (because it's 700+MB and full of Googles that I don't need).

In PHL SIM networks (I'm using Smart's budget SIM, TNT), it works fine, connects internet fine. APN selected automatically here.

That's unfortunate for many GCams and Android 10 for now. Most custom ROMs will suffer from this. You have to wait until 'processing' is finished (after capturing pictures for five to ten seconds, then you can shot again or exit GCam). Hypercam R6 or E3 doesn't freeze GCam for most situations...

Yeah. I use Hypercam E3, Hypercam 7.x and PixelCam 7.3 and all fine. No front HDR+ though.

The 0.7 has WiFi Casting fixed. :svetius:

No. It will only stuck on boot animation freeze. If it boot successfully, it won't connect to WiFi, camera won't open, codec problem, and other bugs outside the scope of ROM.
