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 besides mentions on some other forums for other manufacturers. I even tried to root while i was on miui 13, installed all sorts of kernel optimization and battery savers but neither stopped rmnet_dfc. Now I got miui 14 and both twrp and magisk have been deleted automaticly so I dont plan to go trough the whole process again.

My Mi 11i cost 299 € over a year ago... Nevertheless I don't have that kind of drain, "Other" shows about 14%.
