Dear Community!!!
So Days ago i upgrade my Xperia ZL to kit kat, everithing ok a couple days, fantastic.....but, was suddenly my phone without battery, the problem? google play service was draining the 85% to my battery. When i upgrade to 4.3 firmeware i had the same trouble and then i maked to flash again. Also, this time i just did a factory reset and then everithing ok a couple days... but again, suddenly, google play service is draining all life to my phone...So, somebody knows whats the problem anda what can i do (whitout flashing again)... thanks buddies

The issue is a location wakelock, there are two ways around it disable location if you don't use it, or disable Google now.
If you are rooted, u can uninstall the Google search app from system and reinstall it from play store

you have an option in settings to disable location
since you are rooted,look for "wakelock detector" and "disable service" in play store,
'wakelock detector' will tell you what apps or services are causing it, and then u can disable that particular service using the 'disable service' app

Thanks a lot

I discovered something else.
I reinstalled my Phone again with Android 4.4.2. I installed all my apps. Using the Google Now Launcher.
Batterie consumptions seems normal. I see wake locks but acceptable.
But when driving to home from work I used Avertinoo (A radar notifying application that uses GPS). At home I closed the application. But suddenly I saw that the phone stays awake all the time. And Google Service is responsible for 86% of battery consumption.
Only solution, restart of the phone.
I did several test with this application. A short usage of the application does not seem to trigger the problem.
I did a test with Navigon (Navigation software) and I got the same problem.
So I think any application using the GPS for to long, will cause a problem with the Google service (endless loop due to time out ?).

Instead of disabling location, setting the location mode to "device only" was enough for me.

it's actually a wakelock, whenever an app requires the phone to be awake(say use gps) it sets a wakelock until some condition is satisfied(as u said endless loop), point is its not due to time out but some weird issue that is coming up with the google apps of our particular device....that's why a restart solves it or at times it may not occur for hours of usage of an app and next time it may occur after a minute.
the disabling of services or location is a temporary solution right now.
I tried to clean up all google apps in system and install the latest gapps and odex them.....until now i havent seen any battery issues(in fact usage is not even visible).....i'll report the findings after a fair usage so i can be sure if it does fix the issue.

I uninstalled Google Search from system and installed from the Playstore, then disabled location reporting and my battery seems to go to normal draining

How to I uninstall it from system.

you don't have to uninstall or install anything
just go to sittings\ security and disable Google reporting
that's all

a little update is coming
On PTCRB there is a new Version certified .233
Maybe this will fix the battery draining.
http://www.ptcrb.com/vendor/complete/view_complete_request_guest.cfm?modelid=22622

I was having this draining problem (happened out of nowhere, a full week after installing the 4.4.2 update).
Uninstalling Google Search and reinstalling it through the Play Store didn't worked (kept having Google Services draining more than 80%).
Setting Location mode to GPS-only didn't worked neither. Turning location off worked, but disabled my location-based apps, has expected.
What did worked for me was going to Setting -> Location-> Location Services (Google Location Report) and disabling both Location Report and Location History.
Now Google Services DOES NOT DRAIN more than 2% of my battery. CPU usage is always low (using CPU Spy Reborn, the 1512 MHz frequency step is pretty much around 2 - 3% of the time, as is the 1026 MHz frequency step - the remaining frequency steps are all at 0 - 1%, with 384 MHz (the lowest step) at 52% and Deep Sleep at 34% of the time).
All this with Location active on high-precision mode. Roughly 5h10min of usage (LTE always on), with PowerAmp playing for more than 4h straight, around 55min screen on and 15min or so of gaming (Zombie Gunship), and the battery is still at 72%.
With 4.3, with the same level of usage (moderate to heavy, I guess) the battery would absolutely be on the 60-65% range.
In other words, disabling both Location Report and Location History worked for me, with zero downsides with regards to location based apps (Google Maps, Waze and GPS Essentials all work perfectly).
Hope this helps. Best regards.

[Q] Get Rid Of Google Maps

My phone has had very bad battery life when wifi is on. And after reading online, and my own experience, I think the cause is Google Maps. Is there a way to automatically kill it after it stops, like some sort of task killer app?
Whenever I use my task killer, it shows google maps running, even after I killed it.
I don't even understand why google maps automatically runs, or why it needs to use any of my wifi...
Also, my phone is not rooted, nor will I be rooting it until the warranty expires.

First of all, I've said it a lot and I'll say it again:
just because an app appears in the running list, doesn't mean that it is actually using processing power, thus draining the battery.
So, I really doubt that if you haven't signed in to Latitude (which means location updates every so often), Google Maps is doing any harm to your battery.
You probably don't believe me anyway, so I'll just move on to my next answer:
NO, if you are not rooted, you can't remove Google Maps, it's a system app, part of the Google Services Framework, the backbone of Android OS.
Is there a way I can have an app automatically kill it as soon as it starts? And it seems that Google Maps is the only thing that could be possibly taking up my battery. Losing 4% an hour on standby is not normal.

If you were to use an app to kill it as soon as it starts, it would try again and again to restart and that's where you would definetely see the drain.
When you go to Settings->About Phone->Battery Use, do you actually see Google Maps in the stats? And if yes, how much percent of the battery does it say there that it takes?
And 4% in an hour could be due to many, many things.
Check out this thread to help you find out more about your issue.
Freeze it with titanium, unfreeze when you want to use it. That's what i do,.
as i know,maps service is only location by using gps,so go to location n security setting,turn off "use gps satellites",if its still running,use iridaki advice-ignore it,it cant eat your battery!!

Google maps is not in the battery usage, unless I open maps and use it.
The things that are using that battery are : display, cell standby, phone idle, wifi, android os, android system.
But if I turn wifi off, the battery drain problem goes away :S
I will download betterbatterystats and use it, will post on how it goes.

Battery drain in Galaxy S4 + NlpWakelock and NlpCollectorWakelock + Workaround

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.

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.

[Q] Google Play Services draining battery

This is draining my battery. Kept phone awake for almost 100% on time. Anyone else noticing this? Not changed anything. Only thing that has changed is I now have Google Glass, but I dont have them with me today, so it wouldnt be using that.

I was having a similar problem with Play Services and Media Services. I installed App Cache Cleaner and set it to auto wipe every hour or so. That fixed the problem (or at least stopped it from draining the battery).
Hope that helps.

I have disabled use wireless networks in Location Services and all has gone back to normal. Maybe give that a shot and see if that fixes it for you.
Researched this a lot, found some solutions, bad and good fixes and after trying some different twists on it after two days this is what I found to be the best, and I decided since this is just as bad as 4.0/4.1 and the mediaserver battery drain I might as well try and help at least 1 person by mass posting this reply I wrote else where to other threads, so here you go:
"Hey- I don't know if you, or anyone else has found a working solution, but here is the way I found best:
Note- I am on galaxy s4 [sgh-i337] running a 4.4 KitKat rom. I have found the following work around to work best for me:
1 Google now & Hotword detection=OFF,
2 GPS = OFF and turned on only when needed, eg maps/checkin on facebook/whatever needs location.
3 Settings-> Manage Apps -> Google Play Services -> Manage Space -> Clear All Data.
**Optional:After this [root only] I go into KT tweaker and make sure my phone cpu is set to a max of 810 Mhz when screen off.**
This fix usually works until I reset the phone. I ALWAYS follow those 3 steps when rebooting. AND always check that after I've used GPS that Google Play Services isn't keeping my phone awake. [Eg, after 30 minutes I check if the phone ever went to sleep again when the screen was off.] IF it does act up, I repeat steps 1, 2 &3. I still get notifications and all, and this is the least feature disabling way I've found that works with the cost of a little micro-management of your phone.
With this fix I can idle for an estimated 5-6days. As I take off my phone from charge at 8am and at noon with minimal usage [maybe 4 or 5 texts] I am at 97%. With WiFi on & connected.
OTHER: I personally keep NFC&Android beam&Bluetooth OFF, and turn ON when I need it on. Other- WiFi is always ON, and "Scanning Always Available" & "WiFi Optimization" is checked ON for me. And for location mode when I do have it on, I keep it at EDIT: Device only. Using only gps to find my location.
All in all, I hope this gets fixed."
I can post screen shots and all if somebody wants them or if there is need for one

[Q] battery drain cyanogenmod 11, cm, cm11

Hello, my wifes z1c has some serious batterydrain problems. This is over night and it lost almost 30%
I searched the forum but did not trust any of the suggestions.
I first tought it was a deepsleep problem but that doesnt seem to be the case. Wifi is active but i havent connected it to any network.
Xperia compact battery drain deep sleep problem fix solution
I also have this problem. It should get a lot better if you connect to a wifi network.
I am still investigating what's happening. :-/
Its a hard problem, not only in CM11 and nobody can solve this for evvery time.
This issue (batterydrain with a perfect working deepsleep) come on all devices and all Rom after days or weeks.
Most time a simple restart help.
If not, go to recovery and wipe cache and dalvikcache, then Power off and charge offline to 100%.
If this also not help you need a other kernel.
it looks like Google Play Services is the problem. You can try installing the app Disable Service from Google Play(You must be rooted), and disable following services:
com.google.android.gms.config.ConfigFetchService
com.google.android.gms.auth.be.proximity.authorization.userpresence.UserPresenceService
after installing, open the app and go to the System tab and find Google Play Services, press it and search for those two services and disable them. This has taken away battery drain from my phone.
Hope it helps
Here screenshoot from stock. All time screen of sleep perfect, but once drain the tha accu and other time not. All time BBS, Wakelockdetektor or other such apps show now abnormal wakelock.
The only idea i have is that google protect to log "PlayServices" with such apps and the Services also drain if CPU sleep deep.

Sorry for the very late answer, but i have not been here for a looong time. I just checked my phone and i am missing those services too. I guess they were removed/changed due to a Google Play Services update. However if you still have battery drain, try to reboot your phone, open the app Disable Service (Google Play), go to the System tab, find Google Play services and then search for SystemUpdateService. Enable it, wait a couple of seconds, and then disable it again (if i remember correctly, this service is disabled by default in custom roms, since they are not supposed to update the same way as stock roms do). I have to do this every time my phone has been turned of or rebooted, but it stops the SystemUpdateService from keeping my phone awake all the time.

High battery drain with doze overnight

I'm no stranger to Android and troubleshooting problems, but right now I'm honestly at a loss as to what is causing my battery drain. I'm losing a little over 1% per hour while the device is in doze overnight, adding up to around 10-12% over 8 hours. Previously the max I would lose was close to 5%. I can't pinpoint exactly when something went rogue, but I want to say it was after the January update. I don't think I've added any new apps. I've obviously tried to clear data/cache in Google Play Services among some other apps too.
I've tried to use the battery historian, GSam, BBS, you name it. GSam is showing my device as constantly waking up overnight while in deep doze, but I can't attribute that to any wakelocks. BBS is basically clean as far as partial wakelocks go, and battery historian shows that 7% of the battery drain is unaccounted for. The one thing I have seen a few nights now is the Significant Motion that's in Google Play Services. I've also seen that under Phone and under Android System. I'm wondering if it's some kind of sensor, but I can't figure out what is causing it to stay on. I keep my phone on my nightstand overnight.
My next steps are going to be turning off always on display (AOD), turning on airplane mode overnight, and then doing a factory reset. I'll report back for anyone that comes across here, but I wanted to see if anyone has had similar issues.
I'm attaching a few screenshots, maybe someone can pick up something I'm missing.

Are you rooted by chance? I've seen this mentioned in a couple other threads. Seems the culprit has something to do with GPS's, tethering in developer options, wifi and bluetooth scanning or a rouge app. Most all the cases I've seen have been since the 8.1 update.
Solutions I've seen...turn off everything in the pic.
Clear cache/data on play services(kinda risky)
Clean flash the January update with fastboot.
Turn off bluetooth and wifi scanning.
Check your router setup(some wifi setups like to keep waking the device. I get this in hotels at times)
Try turning wifi off at night.
How many apps are using location services?(I had a weather app that was keeping my device awake)
This can definitely be a bugger to identify. Sure hope you find it ?

I am rooted. I've got WiFi/bluetooth scanning off, but I did just notice that Tethering hardware acceleration was on. I'm turning that off. I'll see how that goes tonight, if it's still draining then I'll try turning WiFi off and see what happens.
I've got GasBuddy, Google, Play Services, Maps, and WTForecast using location. None of those usually show up in any battery stats aside from Play Services.

Wtf weather was the one giving me trouble at one time. I just turned a few things off on that one. Are you using the "enable doze for GSM" magisk module like in the pic. That really seems to keep google play services in check :good:

I wouldn't worry about turning off AOD saving you a bunch, I turned mine off and didn't notice any diff at all in overnight batt drain, so set it to DIM, and still haven't noticed any additional batt drain from when it was off.
If you really want to be a miser without totally losing AOD,
"always on" OFF,
"Lift to check phone" ON,
(Settings>Display>Ambient display>)
set it to DIM (Settings>Display>Screen Saver>Current Screen Saver gear>Night mode checked)
which is how mine is set up

Wtf weather was the one giving me trouble at one time. I just turned a few things off on that one. Are you using the "enable doze for GSM" magisk module like in the pic. That really seems to keep google play services in check :good:

I've been trying to avoid using that module just because I don't want to delay anything from GCM, but I'm going to look into it if I can't identify another culprit.

GCM = Google Cloud Messaging, it's integrated into apps for push notifications. My (perhaps incorrect) assumption is that by dozing Play Services, you could delay push notifications for other apps.

Haven't noticed any delay what so ever with any push notifications from any apps. Google or otherwise :good:
I lost 11% overnight (8 hours), I have Amplify, Enable Doze for Google Play Services Magisk module and ForceDoze, and still getting that drain.
Could it be these apps conflicting with one another?
I noticed this as well and it seems to have started after the January update. Although mine isn't quite as bad. Pre-January update I was losing about 2-3% in like 8 hours. I'm now losing that much in like 4-5 hours. There were 2 days in a row where I actually lost like 15-18% over like 7 hours.

Get rid of amplify and forcedoze. Then see what happens. You've got too many things trying to do the same thing!
The Jan update has been ****. I would get almost 7 hrs SOT with 20% left. Now all I get is ****ty 4 hrs and phone at 10%. Usage wise it's the same since day 1 nothing new as such. No rogue app on BBS. This is messed up.

Yeah I had a feeling that could be it. I'll give it a shot by removing them, thanks for the suggestion! :highfive:

I am rooted. I've got WiFi/bluetooth scanning off, but I did just notice that Tethering hardware acceleration was on. I'm turning that off. I'll see how that goes tonight, if it's still draining then I'll try turning WiFi off and see what happens.
I've got GasBuddy, Google, Play Services, Maps, and WTForecast using location. None of those usually show up in any battery stats aside from Play Services.

Try to run "su" and then "top" from terminal,
See what is your top process,
In one occassion, my magisk hide stucked up and using 30%++ of CPU all the time, even when idle, and that drain the battery in no time,
Am on 8.1 Jan, Kiriskura Kernel,
Tweak applied is Brevent, Amplify and my own EnableDoze for GMS.
Never lost more than 5% in 9 hours of sleep. Average is 2-3% with wifi on. Less than 2% when network is totally off

My bad. I forgot that it was a special build by another user. Install it from magisk manager. If it doesn't install, then flash it in twrp.
