Ah, what was that? I'm currently using one oneui 5. Compared to xioami, the software is more stable and doesn't have stupid restrictions like not allowing access to running services or frequently killing background apps and services.
It used to drain battery like crazy. Then I bought a pixel with stock android and it was same. After that I installed a custom ROM and this is the result- My overnight idlecdrain is around 1% and if I not use my phone too much, it last 4 days on single charge.
It takes a while for adaptive battery to kick (weeks). Especially, when you newly setup an android device. Same with adaptive brightness. Mine drains fast in active heavy use on 5G with motion smoothness set to high. I also have a dual sim model where one can be pulling the lowest signal strength from tower which can also affect battery drain.
Mine started to work within minutes. Custom roms are the best. Never going back to stock.
