Did anyone notice a huge drop in battery after updating google chrome a few days ago. I literally went from 100% to 40% within 6 hours without touching the phone. I believe its Google chrome so I uninstalled it but I'm not sure. Anyone else have this issue?

You have a wakelock either way, use something like BetterBatteryStats just to check what it is. Chrome hasn't created any wakelocks for me. Actually in the past, I've noticed Chrome is a huge battery drain while using it, but the latest update seems to be a bit more conservative.
Well in battery stats, did Chrome come up as the culprit?
No but google services did and under that, it said that one of the google services were bookmark sync... I uninstalled chrome all together because I now use dolphin because I love the sonar feature... I'll see how it is tomorrow and will take it from there..

i'm not sure how to reproduce the problem, but google chrome is always the culprit behind my excessive battery drain
didn't use to happen... wonder what caused this..
I didnt notice battery drain. But the reason i uninstalled chrome was because that huge service runs non stop at like 80mb even when not in use and this phone has an aggressive ram problem as is without that exaserbating it.

long story to short - 1013 is a media server process.
I'm getting the same problem, how did you solve the problem?
I am having this same issue, different device, but this is the first thread I found with the issue.
Have you been listening to music?

Had anyone figured out what this is? I have not been listening to music at all.

Media is pretty unspecified, could be pictures, videos, not just music
I have it too on my Verizon s4, just installed Google experience launcher and new search on it today, hadn't seen it before... running bone stock otherwise. 4.3.
Edit, turned off ok Google listening... haven't seen it since, at least today.

We have got the same problem with Galaxy Note 3, stock rom, rooted. At some point in the night, this *overflow* starts to keep the phone awake and uses 40% of battery in less than 3 hours.
There is no widget on any homescreen.

Better Battery Stats or Wakelock Detector will help you to figure out what app(s) are causing it.
My ROM: WICKED X

Unfortunately Wakelock Detector doesn't show anything uncommon. I deinstalled Spotify and Quizduell Premium, rebooted the phone again - and the problem seems to be gone.
This really is strange behaviour and Android should by now be able to find out those problems by itself. This reminds me of Windows, which after over a decade still struggles with problems and you have to install tools to solve them - or reinstall the whole system.
Hi, I know this is an older thread but I've been having the same problem recently and I tried to Google a solution to the problem and found this thread. I too have had high battery drain from Google Services. The phone is basically awake at all times. GSAM Battery Monitor lists *overflow* as the main culprit.
I have location services turned off and I turned off syncing of all accounts except for Gmail. I uninstalled all updates to Google Services and any apps associated with it. I have rebooted the phone multiple times. I'm pretty sure I've tried every battery saving tip I can possibly find and nothing seems to solve the problem. Every now and then I'll get a day of amazing battery life and think my problems are behind me; then it will go back to the same terrible battery life without me changing any settings or changing the way I use the phone.

Have you tried turning mobile data and/or Wi-Fi off when not in use?
I'm relatively new to android but have a computer background. I'm rooted and have flashed about a dozen or so different ROMS but ended up back to stock for a few of the TW features. I've been keeping an eye on my battery lately and noticing a extremely high number of wake ups from my maps application. Last night specifically I went to bed at 11:30ish with 39% batt life remaining. I woke up and 7am and I have 19% remaining. Phone wasn't in use at all. I had 3 emails and a google+ message come through over night. Looking at GSam Battery monitor maps has very high usage for something i'm really not using at all. it used 15% of my battery coming in below the kernal at 15.4% and the android system at 28.5%. The phone was held awake for a total of 1h 11m in the last 14h by maps alone and had 1743 wake ups.
I have since gone in and turned off location services. I was not using latitude or anything. Not using GPS although I do leave it on. I have google now installed and really liked the fact it would give me driving info when it was my usual time to head to or from work. The alerts for traffic for calendar appointments was also awesome so i'd preferably like to keep those working if possible.
If anyone has any info that could help it would be greatly appreciated!
Here are some screenies to help just in case.
You could try freezing maps with titanium backup. Not sure what effects it will have on anything else though. Just a suggestion.

Well I use maps all the time. I just didn't happen to be using it in the last charge cycle. So far this morning I went into the maps settings and toggled locatoins settings- report from this device to off. I'm currently charging (off my laptop so it's slow) and once I'm at 100% I can run another cycle and see if it's made any difference. So far it looks like the number has stayed the same.

I've seem many posts about this. Its a known issue unfortunately. Like you've already done, make sure location reporting is off and that latitude is disabled.

Yeah i've seen some posts but Latitude was off and most of the other instructions for disabling more services were for different devices so the setting paths were different. Maybe this will actually work. I've noticed a bunch of wakes preventing periods of deep sleep as well. crossing my fingers I solved it myself.
small update, looks like turning off the location history does stop google now from working with the traffic updates. While I really like this service, i'm not sure it's worth the battery life it's taking to fuel it. Could be related to using a port of google now with ICS and not official jelly bean, at least that is what i'm hoping.
Well it looks like I got maps fixed but now the system is crushing my battery. I'll let the screenshots do the speaking. Really looking for someone with some expertise to help me out. I'm lost other than switching to a CM10 ROM.

Turn Off Location Settings
Try turning off your LATITUDE LOCATION SHARING. That seems to work for a lot of people that reported the same issue. Its under System Setttings > Accounts > Google > Maps & Latitude
That's been off. Fixed the maps but now system is going crazy. This just started yesterday. I'm planning on re flashing stock and starting over

Not only have I rebooted, I did a Titanium backup of my apps, factory reset, and only restored my apps. no system settings.
The only thing I can think of is that I installed a few packages to enhance the stock rom. I'm going to flash over a completely fresh version and go from there.
Oh wow, well good luck! I would recommend looking at CM10 tho. Been using it for a month or two now and haven't looked back.

I really liked CM10, a lot. I just miss some of the reasons I bought this phone. Swiping contacts to text/call, motion settings, video playback pip. If they could ever get those on CM10...

I've been trying to figure out why my battery has been so bad over the last few days and why Maps is using almost half the battery on my phone. I've checked to make sure nothing on the phone is using location services, cleared data, and turned off every location option in setting, yet Maps still eats battery like mad.
As a last resort I uninstalled the updated Maps app and am now using the version that came with JB. It's too early to be sure, but it seems like maybe battery usage is calming down. The phone is definately running a bit cooler now.
Has anyone else had a similar experience?
Do you have Google locations checked ? That is normally also a big battery drainer

No, all location items were unchecked, Google Now was turned off, there was really no reason for it to be such a big drain.
BTW, after 2 hours I now have 97% battery left and maps is only about 6% of total usage. I'm thinking this made a big difference.
Thank you! I thought I'd gone crazy. After only doing a few app updates and the update to JB, I have also noticed a major drain on my battery compared to the entire time I've had my S3.
Any update on your test with rolling back to the older maps version? I'm a new convert to Android (loving it) and don't know how to do that even if it would help
If that was causing the problem, I may be in the same boat as you and I'll look into going back to the old version for now. I initially thought it was just the JB update as a whole..who knows

There are a whole slew of things that will kill battery on JB. Any app that syncs data in the background needs to have background syncing turned off. That includes Google Now and Facebook. Maps needs to have Location sharing and Location reporting turned off. I had done all that and was still having a huge drain on the battery. Uninstalling the Maps update is easy, didn't lose anything useful, and seems to have reduced battery consumption quite a bit. So, either my case is a fluke or there is some sort of bug in the Oct 29th update to Maps. I'd like to here if anyone else has had the same results I have.
I had done the same things as the OP and still had noticeable battery drainage. This morning I decided to freeze Maps with TiBu and midway through the day I now have 74% battery where yesterday I was at 40-50% midway through the day.

I highly recommend you buy the app... Titu is a keeper and once you pay, upgrades are included...

I too have been having much worse battery life with JB compared to ICS and all entirely due to the Maps app (losing ~9% overnight when just sleeping!). It is always at the top of my usage even when never using it. Never had a problem with it on ICS. Thought it may be related to Google Now but maybe it is indeed the latest version causing issues all by itself.
I've been afraid to freeze maps. Not only do I use it regularly, but it seems that lots of other apps rely on it (part of why it's such a battery killer).
Not sure if anyone has seen this...I just read about it on pulse but if anyone is interested in battery drain this may help or be a placebo effect......just sharing

I have been looking at this too, have it saved in my wishlist on the play store while investigating it. Clearing Google services framework cache, etc., is not really a feasible solution to battery drain in my opinion so something to fix the issue would be great.
Would appreciate any feedback you have on it. Thanks.

GServiceFix worked!
I had same battery drain problem on XPERIA ZR (100 to 0 in 12 hours, Google services taking 85%) and I installed GServiceFix and followed the instructions. Battery is normal after that (100 to 30 in 16 hours, GS taking < 10%).
One thing I noticed was the location settings, it had changed it to "High Accuracy" and was turned off. I though of changing it and turned Location on and mode to the "Low Battery". Within minutes the GS % jumped to 80+%. So I again changed the mode to High Accuracy and turned location off. Restarted the device, but still the battery was draining faster. So I had again run the GServiceFix which fixed the battery back.
I feel it has something to do with the location settings (had seen few posts on that) and that too applying those settings in a particular order. Just a guess though...
