I have flashed all popular roms available for Redmi 5; crdroid, paranoid, both the variants of pixel experience, aospextended, lineage(baunilla's build), havoc and most recently, resurrection remix. After using all these extensively, I kept coming back to PE. The stock variant is a bit bland in terms of features, so I gotta say: the plus variant is perfect. It gives me all the necessities while keeping stability in mind. And believe me, when i say i have used crdroid and resurrection remix extensively. I tweaked all sorts of features that are accessible to the end user. In the end, too much of customisation burned me out.

So, yet again I came back to PE+ :highfive: Thanks a lot man for your free work!
But yeah, I have two requests as well. First, the battery backup. Now I know the Redmi 5 isn't the most powerful device on the market (but far from it) but back in its MIUI days (when i still had a locked bootloader), a single charge was enough to last me a day if i kept it idle. But here in PE, if I keep it idle, I find after sometime, the battery levels have drained a lot. Overnight battery drains are on a different level! I'm on the stock kernel if that matters. BTW after the August update I saw a different kernel, something like : 3.18.140 pixelexperience dirty but previously it was KewlLite. And my battery drain fiasco was with Kewl Lite exclusively. I need to use the device with the new kernel more to further update you on the situation.
My second request : The font size of the default network traffic indicator. I'm grateful you added a default option but its size is bit big in comparison to the font sizes of the battery % or even the clock on the status bar. If there is a workaround for this from the user end, please let me know.
Phew! That was long!
