I have recently reset my Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 in view that it was overheating and the battery was draining within three hours. Before resetting I had a facility in the setting by which I used to switch off mobile at 21.00hrs and switch on again at 7.00 hrs. After reset this facility is no longer available in the settings menu.

My RN4 MTK was giving me over 4h of SOT with my usage for over the last 2 years. After recent duo update I was able to get to 2-2,5h of SOT and constant 37-40 degrees on battery and phone was very hot. So what I did was disable duo and other google aplications that I don't use. I'm using official global and no root is needed for that(you can google it how to do it). Now my SOT is over 5h!!! I thought that my phone was dying on my because of the issue with duo but it turns out its better than ever.

There is no need to do a factory reset. The problem of phone heating up and draining battery is in fact the result of Google Duo bug - if you just uninstall latest Google Duo updates, your phone will be ok.

About the latest comments that talk about bugs, my phone is working just as badly these last few days. I researched a little and found a huge amount of calls to the url of google adwords (37k in 8h). This, coupled with the use of 100% CPU, probably mining bitcoin, I think we have malware sneaking in with the update.

My Redmi Note 4 started to act up two days ago, lagging and overheating even at idle mode with wifi off. Battery started to drain from 90% to 20% overnight. I have tried troubleshooting following all the advice I see on the internet, like rebooting, shutting down while charging, clearing cache, deleting unnecessary apps, deleting photos and videos that came through whatsapp. This phone is used for Facebook, Whatsapp, internet only. No gaming at all. But it still overheats in idle mode.
What to do??? Time to change battery?

It is a device that is attending me very well here in Brazil. I use it at TIM Brasil. Unfortunately it does not work on the 700MHz frequency in Band 28, so I can not use VoLTE technology in the TIM Brasil operator. When it comes to Xiaomi support for this specific model with Mediatek processor, Xiaomi is leaving much to be desired, it seems that Xiaomi abandoned the updates for this model with Mediatek processor

Compared to variant with snapdragon it has no advantages.
It heats up very much, even after 10 mins youtube videos its getting quite warm.
Xiaomi doesnt care about it -newest beta roms is joke - battery life is less 50% on it. 2 hours of youtube on beta rom and battery will drop to 10% from 90%.
Even with each "stable" rom battery is weakier after each update.
I reverted to 8.5 frm 0.7.2017 stable Rom, bc battery life looks to be very good there.
It never got official android update to Nougat.
Unofficial ROMS with Nougat are very buggy, there is no ROMS with Oreo.

this phone is not garbage, but it isnt good either. for the price, id say its completely worth it. the camera leaves a lot to be desired and the build quality is meh.
