For reasons I cannot pinpoint, my phone occasionally goes into some kind of endless loop with the Geofencer. It generally happens right after I pull it off the charger, but not always. I don't charge overnight and will occasionally go to sleep with 50% battery and perfectly quiet wakelock activity, only to wake up to 3% battery and Google Play Services / Geofencer through the roof. This happens maybe twice a week.
I am aggressive with battery savings. Tasker turns location services off with screen off, and turns them back on with screen on, in battery saving mode. I used to use Aggressive Doze in Greenify but have disabled that and moved to Doze Settings Editor instead. The Geofencer loop occurs either way, with location services disabled. A reboot of the phone seems to be the only fix to get the wakelocks back under control.
I am bootloader unlocked/rooted/S-On with software version 1.53.617.5 because I am lazy and haven't gone to the trouble to manually flash a more recent update.
Is there any way to figure out what app is banging against Google Play Services? I have GSam, Wakelock Detector, and Better Battery Stats.

As you can see, something is keeping my phone awake while I'm not using it

How can I find out what it is?
Could that just be phone idle?
But why would it be awake so much when i'm not using it?

Try CPU Spy. That's what I use to show what percent of time the phone was in Deep Sleep for. It doesn't tell you what apps have caused you to wake from Deep Sleep, but should give you better figures
You seem to have poor reception. Maybe its the phone switching from 2G to 3G or switching towers?
I had wake issues on firmware 2.3.3 where the phone would be awake for up to 90% of the time, 2.3.4 seems to have fixed it.
could be apps syncing data in the background?
empty the dalvik cache folder and restart your phone......let the phone setup the cache for each app again .
i was having very bad battery life .. its like just 2hrs off gaming and 5 hrs normal use plus
my message tone use to rang and notification bars shows nothing ... noww ALL is WEll "D

Phone has been idle since I unplugged it 2 hrs ago with the exception of the time the browser was active (8%).
I haven't opened maps at all, but it shows Maps using 12%. Sometimes when I wake up the device, the GPS icon is on in the notification bar, I'm assuming this is related to the maps activity during sleep. Anyone know why its doing this and how I turn it off?
Thanks

Are you using latitude? You can try un installing if you aren't. Google Now also tracks your location.
If you have root you can use titanium backup to freeze maps if you aren't using them. I just bought the battery the phone should have shipped with, the 2000 mah factory upgrade. 34.00 from shim in Korea. See the accessory thread.
Ok so I've posted in the general battery life thread and have become a bit obsessed of late with my battery stats - short is, I don't think they're good enough and I can't figure out why.
I recently installed Viper but went back to stock as I didn't really need the root or the features. My battery has never really lasted a full day even without the ROM changes. So, I'm now back on stock and factory reset without putting any restore back on, I started from scratch with everything.
There's still something not right with my phone being held awake. I've done the usual, turning off auto sync for nearly all apps, disabled location access for Google apps and have the brightness on 1 when indoors. I'm still getting an awake time of half of the total battery time.
Can anyone help me troubleshoot? I know I'll probably need wakelock access but I'd really like to get away from having to root my device again.
These are my latest screenshots from GSam and I've hardly used my phone today as I've been in meetings most of the day

Without the wakelocks info.... It's like finding a needle in a haystack.
You can disable location completely and see if it matters.
And do you listen to music? That adds to awake time every minute it's playing.
Well I got my S7 Edge coming soon (pre ordered) but I'd still like to know what can possibly cause this.. I've had horrible battery life for some time now and I just looked at my battery status. It seems my phone never goes to sleep and is always awake? Back I'm the day we could check the cause but now we can't unless we root... can anyone tell me what can an android user do about this? I'm looking forward to the doze function in 6.0!
My phone literally sat for few hours while I napped but look at that battery draw!!

If you have "Aways Allow Scanning" enabled in wifi advanced settings, this will happen. Also, battery can go quick if you have "Enhanced 4g LTE services" enabled under mobile data (hd voice over LTE). I would check these two things first. Also, if you keep the phone's sync setting on all the time, thus might happen.
Hope this helps.
You should probably turn off NFC also. I have sync off and wifi only enabled when phone is awake. Data is off when I'm not on wifi. Charge my phone ever other day. I get really good battery life.
1d 1h 57m on battery currently. At 40%. Approximately 10h 14m left on battery.
Hi,
I have a problem with my G5S recently. I had already sent it to a service center because of this, but Moto's Partner for repairs in Germany is horribly incompetent, so it came back with the same issues still occuring.
I think the whole thing began with a restart by holding power for 10 seconds some weeks ago. Later that day I noticed the infrared sensor on the phone's back to glow permanently red, much brighter than normal. It is the one left to the camera. This is even the case if I power down the phone, only with 0 battery the sensor goes off until I recharge.
With this sensor bug comes a massive battery drain, the phone never seems to go into deep sleep mode, the battery stats in the settings show a ongoing bar under active time. I made some screenshots of GSam Battery Monitor, maybe someone can tell me how to stop the process which holds the device active. The phone has no root or any modification by the way.
Thanks!
