Mi 5s Plus Battery Drain

It is the same problem here, I turn every thing off and at night i use Airplane mode but during sleeping it comsume 25% to 35% and this is upnormal !

I format my data through TWRP and make clean installation on LineOs 15.1 without google Apps but still having the same issue !!

I think there are some programing for the battery it self

I use original charger and usb cable ! and today battery was 43% and i use it while it charging and after 15 minutes it become 38% !!!!!!!!

Fast battery drain on the Mi5s occurs when the fingerprint reader is active. Disable it by removing any fingerprints registered in the security setup (in other words, don't use your fingerprint reader option) and reboot. You will notice the phone runs much cooler and the battery lasts much much longer. To permanently resolve the issue and regain use of the fingerprint reader, you must root the phone or find some other way of disabling com.qualcomm.qti.biometric.fingerprint.service.

Until about four days ago, I would never consider taking my Mi5s out of the house because it was useless unless I wanted to drag a power bank with me. A comment by someone got me motivated to dig into this issue and I found other people at xiaomi.eu reporting the basics as I've stated above. Yesterday I removed fingerprints, fully charged the phone and today I have 50% battery left and a cool running phone. Normally, it would be less than 20 % after sitting idle overnight. I've asked Xiaomi to consider an app with root permission to fix this. I am not holding my breath.

@TAJ_Rocks What rom do you use?

Im on ViperOS 7.1.2.
Its best with magisk and xposed and even substratum works good.
Daily 13-18hours battery backup.
I have bought my phone two years back on launch Day. So havent changed my battery also.
I wish somebody update ViperOS to latest security patches then it will be more great

I cannot post direct link here, but search "lehehe bm37" on Ali. I use this one. It has the same capacity as original one and temperate sensor is working.
