Hi,
I just installed latest update from Samsung via Kies (Baseband: I9300XXLH1 / Build: IMM76D.I9300XXBLH1) but now I suddently have huge battery problems. It only takes a few hours for the battery to go from 100% to <10%. Prior to the update I could easily have it running for a whole day without recharging.
From the battery stats it looks like Google Services is the bad guy using the most battery. Since I have not changes anything in regards to the services, I suspect that some bug has been introduced.
Has any of you experienced this? is there a fix for this?

It should be some wake locks and sync issues, install bbs and GSam Battery Monitor and find out the culprit

Hello folks,
When I bumped into this thread which listed a version of Google Play Services, version 4.4.52; I immediately updated mine which was suffering from extreme wakelocks (I was on 4.3.25).
Here is my phone running the latest version

After installing the new package I went to bed, hoping to wake up in the morning to an improved and reduced battery use. Boy was I wrong!
My phone was awake for the entire 9 hours while I slept!

Look at the awake bar, and notice how it never went into deep sleep! Fortunately, after a couple of reboots my phone was able to enter deep sleep. But, compared to numerous screen shots of other users' battery stats, my phone displays significantly more awake periods.
Keep in mind I have factory reset 3 times now, and the wakelocks continue to occur and plague my existence, resulting in furious vain attempts at finding a fix. The only way to prevent such wakelocks and idle battery drain for me was to disable location services, hence crippling Google Now and other location features.
Does anyone else suffer from poor battery life despite disabling all gimmicky features such as hand motions as well as bloatware?
Have you been able to develop a solution?
I ran into huge battery drain with the past 2 Play Services updates. The latest (4.4.52) I thought fixed the problem, but only for a day. I just rebooted to fix the wake lock I was having. Frustrated.... Nexus 5 here.

Interestingly enough the 4.4.52 update was never pushed to the galaxy s5, I manually installed it.
Even with location turned off I woke up this morning to this:

after a clean install of 4.4.3 i have experienced extreme battery drain from google services. the drain was so big that was more than the screen!!.
i don't know why this happened, but i had google now dissabled (from google now option not freezed, and everything else dissabled) BUT i had enabled location. It was eating away my battery like crazy. the same settings in 4.4.2 was not battery hungry at all.
I solved the problem by removing the permission of network based location on google search (i used android tuner but you can propably do it with appOps).
i know that 4.4.2 and 4.4.3 have no major differences but does anyone else experienced this? Is there any other way to stop the battery drain?
I'm running stock/rooted kitkat and for the last few days I have had dramatic battery drain. I go from fully changed to 10% in less than 4 hours. Has anyone else noticed this lately?
I had this as well. I had to disable location services to get my phone to actually go to sleep.
Sent from my AOSP on Mako using XDA Free mobile app
disabling location services and trying that. thanks
I've had awful battery since i upgraded to 5.0 and Google services are killing the battery. I'll try location services. Will update.
It's definitely not a problem with Location Services. My location is completely turned off 99% (since always) of the time and I also have that topping my battery consumption. Even though, my phone has been deep sleeping without major problems. There's an unknown wakelock that is slowly draining the battery, but anyway I've been getting 4h of SOT everyday without making any sacrifices. If somebody finds out what's the root cause, keep me posted, please.
I've been occasionally getting this for a few weeks too.
If I turn off location, the problem continues for a day or so but then goes away.
This morning I took the phone off charger first thing. I restarted and didn't open screen for two hours. When I checked battery usage it was down 80% and the big consumer was Media and SDcard. Anyone see this before?
It just occurred to me that I may have a corrupt file on internal storage. I'm going to back everything up and start deleting.
Well..I did a factory reset and I still have a major battery drain. It has to be some rogue app but I haven't installed "new" apps lately. Plenty of updates though.
Hey guys,
I've been having an S6 Edge+ for a couple of days already but there seems to be an issue with the ROM. I'm getting a lot of battery drain from the "Android OS" and I'm losing up to 5% - 7% per hour in standby.... I have even re-flashed the entire ROM and factory reset two times... still the same.
I've disabled Google's Location History and Google Now but this did not help...
My previous Galaxy S6 was also running the latest ROM but there were no such problems...
Has anybody else experienced such an issue and do you have any ideas?

Check if any sync is stuck in loop, sometimes this kills battery very easily. If all else fails check with some app like GSam.

Unfortunately GSam does not produce too detailed information without Root access and it only says Android System and lists all the services that are under it...
The interesting part is that after several re-flashes with the same firmware, the wakelock disappeared...
Now I get 76% to 80% deep sleep...
Go figure... Probably some stuck sync as you mentioned...

Android OS Wakelock killing the battery! ...... solved
OK, im not too savvy with settings and systems, just sharing what i have been through. I too had a major battery drain problem on my S6 Edge+ , giving me abt 8-10hrs of use after a full charge. Even during the nights with everything off and power saving enabled i would lose abt 50-60% battery over 8 hours. ..... caused by Android OS ....... it would keep the screen awake for hours even with the screen off .... ( dont know how that worked) ..... tried a factory reset but didnt help. Then rooted the phone and downloaded wakelock detector and installed it as a system app. Installed greenify and doze ..... last night lost 4% over 11hours with wifi and 4g off and power saving enabled which is a drastic improvement. Facing one little problem that images do not get downloaded (automatically or manually) in whatsapp with wifi in use. Will use the cell for a few days and post again abt how the battery is holding up and if there is any other performance issues.
If you want to save battery, try this app:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.kunkunsoft.packagedisabler
It show all RAM usage of each app, you can disable any app in Bloatware (samsung default app) list to save power
This app run WITHOUT ROOT

Google play services has up updated to lastest, as far as I know, to 19.2.74 (100400)
But it's using up over 3% battery in one day, 26% in a week according to device care > battery >
What I have noticed major battery drain. I have to charge up at least once before bedtime. This didn't happen before the last Google play services drain issue I think it was last month? I signed up for the beta, it didn't fix anything. So I read the newer ones fixed the battery drain, reinstalled the regular one - and just been waiting for things to get better really.
Anybody else experience this?
i am facing similar issue in s9+? did u ever solved this issue?
