I currently have a problem that "Google services -> event log service" is draining my battery a lot,
I was asking this in another thread about this problem but got told I should ask here in the specific forum for my phone.
I fully charged it during night and at 2:30am I rebooted the phone and unplugged the charger.
Now in the afternoon at 5pm I checked again (haven't used the phone since then) and battery was at 62 %
Wakelock detector is showing an activity of Google-services/Event log service with 1 hour 43 minutes.
Wlan off, 3G on, GPS off, bluetooth etc off.
I disabled all unessesary syncs including google backup/restore, not helping at all.
I checked developer settings for log recording etc.. but everything is off.
It's the international E975 model btw,
I have the same issue. I think i tweaked it too much lol.
Partial wakelocks in BBS indicates EventLogService has been on for 5h.. -_-
Have you done any tweaks to it? I.e: freeze anything from titanium, greenify, etc
This is a result of frozen apps.

hi there
so if i check what apps are frozen and uninstall them, this will get rid of the problem basically, that simple??
It may just cause more problems. The reason the wakelock is even appearing as event log service is because the app is frozen, but causing wakelocks. But wait, didn't we freeze it?.. how can it still be causing wakelocks? Some other system level app is still capable of waking it, so it may or may not be something important.

cheers, actually i have LOTS of wakelock time taken from these 2:
1) Alarm Manager - Android System. this one grows by 5 units every time i unlock the phone and check, NORMAL??
2) Event Log Service - Google Services, this one is a bit more quiet but still growing silently.
Things i have on:
usually sync, but those 2 above grow regardless of sync being on or off, then i have 2 alarms in the calendar, one active and one not and some calendar notifications.
are those responsible? right now my phone is doing around 2% battery use but i notice that it grows very easily, just now i lost 1% in only 25 minutes.
the "awake" graph under battery looks strange.. sometimes it matches screen off (so good), sometimes, it seems to be on, with screen OFF for no reason whatsoever.
any idea?
thanks
I have Samsung Galaxy S4 (TMO) running on rooted stock ROM 4.2.2.
Off late, I have been observing that the battery is draining much faster than it should be.
Earlier it typically used to consume ~12% of the battery during night time (when the phone is not used at all).
However, off late my battery is draining rapidly and is not standing for at least 8 hrs.
I checked the battery usage and got to see
Google Services (v4.3.11) is ranked higher at ~52% followed by
Screen
Android System
Android OS
etc.
I used Wakelock Detector to see what items are causing this drain.
I figured out that under Google Services the top ranking battery eaters are
NlpWakelock
NlpCollectorWakelock
So I tried couple of different things by disabling Google Sync. Even then, there is no change.
The following is what I did which fixed the battery drain:
1. I disabled/unchecked the Settings -> Location Services -> Location Sources -> Use wireless sources
After this, I checked the usage in the Wakelock Detector.
NlpWakelock : This one is now stopped and I don't see any activity with this wakelock
NlpCollectorWakelock : This continues to have wakelocks and is still ranking higher.
2. Now I set the Settings -> Location Services -> My places -> Home -> Selected Method -> None.
Earlier I had this option set to be identifying my home using my WiFi network. This is causing continuous In/Out data transfer (most probably polling to the network to check if the connection is alive) in the status bar observed by the WiFi icon. Once I set this to None, I don't see continuous In/Out data transfer in the status bar.
Apart from the above, I did power off the phone and removed the battery when it showed <5%. Left it like that for couple of hours. Then re-assembled and then it showed me 10% and recharged it after that. I did this on purpose to calibrate the battery (but not necessary) due to continuous discharge/recharge cycles happened for the last couple of days.
After recharging it to 100%, I left the phone without using it for 4 hrs to observe the wakelocks. Voila, the Google Services is at the bottom of the list. The above two wakelocks are no more seen under the Google Services. By the way, I did have the Google Sync on during this observation. I observed 1-2% battery drain for each one hr.
After this, the battery drain is not happening. For the past 9 1/2 hrs, accessing - Facebook, google search, The Weather Channel - couple of times resulted in 17% battery drain so far.
UPDATE: It's been almost 22 1/2 hours by now... the battery is now at 52% after a normal usage of accessing - Facebook, google search, The Weather Channel, CNN, TOI, Google+, phone calls and having Google sync on.
Hope this helps anybody else having a similar problem.
Greenify.
Yeah it's been well documented that Google Service locations(mainly the "Wi-Fi and cellular network" option) will drained the battery quick.
???
Thanks for this info. My phone started dying in the middle of the day when it didn't used to. I'm not sure if I updated something and it caused these settings to change but I will see if this helps.
This didn't help me. I have massive battery drain. I made a few wipes, changed different stock roms. Now I'm on Google edition ROM and It's the same. Nlpwakelock is a nightmare for me. Could it be a third party app problem?
Did you have Google now activated? In that case, check if you have location services activated for it. NlpWakelock is mainly associated with the location access. Using wakelock detector, you would be able to find which application is using the NlpWakelock. That would give you a clue about what other app(s) using this wakelock.

I'm using BetterBatteryStats. Disabling Google Now/Location Reporting/Location History doesn't make any difference.

One more thing, after doing any changes, in order to get fresh wake lock information, you need to restart the phone. That way, you would know if the NlpWakeLock is being used from the fresh restart. However, if you see the Battery stats from the phone Settings, it would still show the information from the last recharge.

Google Play Services. I tried to restart the phone. More info about what I tried is here
Edit: I turned off Location Reporting and History, and it's much better. Google Now is making wakelocks now, but only few. Anyway Google ****ed up their own services.
Hello there. I'm trying to get rid of my battery drain for ages, tried to check for wakelocks and I have no idea what is this one in the middle, any help?
One wakelock is from your widget and when it updates generates wakelocks. Second is from stamina you have sign interval so in stamina mode your tel is wakeing up from time to time in intervals. And last is from some android service update. Install wakelock detector and check is this wakelocks are from android process.
I assume first wakelock is from trackID, tried to remove that widget, didn't help.
I don't get the second one, I don't remember any sign interval in stamina..
And yes, i think they are all android processes.
Anyone else encountering this? I didn't check before I went to 5.0.1, but right now it is consistent. Rebooting helps for a time, but my phone is awake for the most part even if I'm not using it, and most of that time goes to RILJ, used by the phone app.
I saw some threads about using wakelock terminator, but this doesn't work well on Lollipop because Xposed does not work 100% stably.

Yes, I'm seeing RILJ keeping my phone awake too since the 5.0.1 update

I'm having this annoying wakelock too on 5.0.1 in Nexus 5. Have you found any solutions?
If you turn off location history (and may need to reboot), it goes away, but without location history, Google now isn't as fun.
RILJ seems to have a wakelock about 50% of the time. This is only since 5.0.1. At least it doesn't seem to really be killing battery life much.
I don't use Google Now and I have location services disabled all together most of the time (no GPS, no network location). I only use it when I open Google Maps. I also turned off location history but nothing changes. RILJ is always there. I think this is related to the phone app.

Do you have location history disabled too? I think rilj is the phone looking for location via the network as opposed to via GPS.

You mean this right (see screenshot)? Yes I disabled that hours ago and still have that wakelock (among other wakelocks with high counts like *alarm*, SyncLoopWakeLock and many others). RILJ is the worst one though. It doesn't happen on wifi, only on mobile data.

Not sure that's the same place. I'm looking in settings->location->Google location history If I turn location history off there and reboot, rijl wakelocks stop.

Yeah, it's the same setting. That has been off since last night, along with Location services all together (I never use Google Now and rarely open Google Maps to see where something is or where I am). I don't think my problem has something to do with location. Thanks for your suggestion., though.
I may have found something here.
In Google Wallet->Settings->Notifications, I've turned off the nearby items option.
I've now only got 21 seconds of RILJ wakelock in the last 44 minutes.
I've had some other periods of time where RILJ stopped and when I turned the feature back on to test, RILJ didn't start up again, so I'm not sure I've found an answer, but, right now, it's looking ok.
Nope. Significant RILJ wakelock is back. Wonder why it wasn't there this morning.
This is definitely a strange one.
That is the same thing I've been seeing. You reboot and it goes away for a while, then comes back.

I also noticed it's rather insoncistent, but most of the time it's there, going crazy. Nearly 100 instances in a matter of a few minutes. I'm not actually sure of this, but I think it's worse when I'm in a place with bad cell coverage (home and work, for example -FML-). And when I'm at work there's absolutely nothing I can do to stop the wakelocks, because if I connect to that crappy WIFI, the RILJ will go away, but I'll get A LOT of wlan_rx and wlan_wd wakelocks too. When connected to the WIFI at home the phones sleeps like a baby.

In my case it doesn't. I've read that disabling background location helps (It's always disabled in my case) because it's the phone using cell towers to approximate your location. I don't use nor have Google Wallet. Wakelock detector shows it under "Phone (radio)".
All this ****ing wakelocks are drving me crazy, I'm having all sorts of them. A bunch of sync related wakelocks are always poping out, and I have autosync disabled most of the time. This came with the 5.1 update. I flashed Cynogenmod 12.1 this morning and I haven't seen any changes.
Been doing some more testing and this issue is just really strange. Turning off location history seemed like it was working for a bit, but rilj wakelocks are going just as strong now so that's not it.
Also, there are so few posts about this when i do a Google search that I'm wondering if this is just flat out a bug specific to the G3 that was introduced in 5.0.1.
RILJ is from the phone app. I had it in 4.4.2 too. As soon as I use the phone I get the wakelock.

It's not exclusive of the G3, I have them too on the Nexus 5. It's definitely related to the radio (phone), I think it gets worse when you have bad coverage. I managed to stop a bunch of the wakelocks I was having by making a profile in Tasker to turn on autosync every 2 hours for 5 minutes and, more importantly, by denying permissions to Google Services, Calendar (and its sync service), Contacts (and its sync service) for location, wake up and keep awake, among other permissions. I still see the RILJ wakelock but it's not significant and has no impact on battery life. I'm not sure if the permissions thing helps with the RILJ wakelock, but I'm sure that was the only thing that help with battery life.
RILJ Wakelock on HTC Desire 816 after Lollipop Upgrade
I am facing the same issue after upgrading my HTC Desire 816 to Lollipop. RILJ is related to the Dialer.
Tried the following:
1. Clear Cache and Dalvik Cache
2. Force Stop Dialer
3. Restart Phone (Works for some time)
However, after Googling for a while I found out that a restart will help as long as you don't receive a call. As soon as you receive a call, the RILJ process again shoots up and keeps your phone awake.
A restart after every phone call is way too annoying.

Go into settings then apps then running on your phone and see if you can see anything there, check for connect (moto connect) tap it and see what is running. There are likely 4 processes, if you have wakelock detector you could use that also to possibly narrow it down (requires root). Also check your location settings the watch could be using GPS to find your location which will affect both batteries (phone and watch).
I have the same thing. No processes under running apps on my phone that standout
Download cpu spy from playstore and let it run for a while. See if your phone is entering deep sleep after about half an hour. I am going to guess it is running at 300mhz and no entering deep sleep. What this will mean is the watch is communicating with the phone and not letting it sleep. Would be helpful to know what you have running on the watch ie. fit, moto body, google now cards and how many...
Just received my Moto 360 too. Got the same processes. And also a kind of very high android wear usage...
What do you guys have turned on? ambient, tilt to wake, card previews? I have all that turned off on mine, for me, watch idle is at the top followed by android wear 16% idle, 4% android wear.... then some other lower numbers.
