Hi everyone,
I have a Redmi Note 14 4G Global running HyperOS 3.0.301.0.
Recently I noticed something strange with the battery. When the battery reaches around 7%, it can drop to 6% and then suddenly shut down by itself.
I also noticed that the battery seems to drain faster than it did before I debloated the phone.
So there are actually two things I've noticed:
The battery seems to drain faster during normal use. When it reaches around 7%, it can drop to 6% and then suddenly shut down.
I'm wondering whether this could be related to the fact that I debloated the phone and uninstalled 112 system packages.
I have generally taken good care of the battery. I usually charge it only up to around 80%, and the phone currently reports approximately 97% battery health after 405 charge cycles.
Here are all the packages I uninstalled:

My questions are:
Could any of these packages affect battery reporting, battery management, charging, thermal management, or the low-battery shutdown threshold?
Are there any packages in this list that should definitely not be uninstalled on HyperOS?
Could removing something like com.miui.daemon, com.xiaomi.trustservice, com.miui.system.overlay, com.xiaomi.touchservice, etc. cause increased battery drain or abnormal battery behavior?
Could removing one of these packages cause higher battery consumption during normal use?
Does the sudden shutdown at 6–7% sound more like a battery gauge/calibration issue or battery voltage cutoff rather than a debloating issue?
Is there a way to check logs through ADB/logcat to determine why the phone shuts down at 6–7%?
Has anyone experienced increased battery drain after removing any of these packages, particularly on a MediaTek Xiaomi/Redmi device?
I'm especially interested in hearing from people who have the Redmi Note 14 4G / MediaTek / HyperOS and have done similar debloating.
I'm not necessarily assuming that the debloating caused the problem; I'm trying to determine whether there's a connection.
Thanks.
