If you have your N4 rooted, you can "freeze" maps until they release a fix with apps like "root uninstaller". Maps won't launch anymore and can't cause any wake locks then.
If your phone is not rooted, there's no luck until Google releases a fix.

Maps killing battery

I'm having an issue with my n7. The maps app that I never use is constantly eating loads of battery. Its always the second thing in the battery usage list. I never use it! why is it draining my battery?

I think its built to start up automatically during certain actions such as wifi being turned on. You should be able to disable it in settings > apps. If you're rooted, you uninstall it.

I'm rooted but I don't want to completely uninstall it. For now I have disabled location services, so I will see how well that works.

Get titanium Backup and freeze it. When you need it just defrost it

[Q] [q] strange battery life on the n4

Just got my new Nexus 3 days back.. and today was the first day using the phone not plugging it on and off thorough the day.
noticed something odd. I hadn't opened the maps app.. so it makes it even more strange.
any ideas?
Maps always runs itself. I believe this can be remedied by turning off location settings.

Which app is that by the way? And turn off location settings and latitude.

the even more curious part was that the app had run only for 34seconds!
not faced the problem today, hadn't changed any settings. guess it will remain a mystery until it happens again?
Someone was having a similar problem a few weeks back. Try going from maps to navigation and accepting the user agreements etc. Someone found that this solved the maps battery drain.

This was an issue on galaxy nexus when updating from 4.0 to 4.0.1 .all you had to do is to go to maps accept t&c and that's it.

Battery Drain issue and Resolution

Long story short, my gps just kept coming on by itself even after turning it off multiple times. Even after rooting, installing twrp and flashing Clean Rom 1.1 (THANKS SCOTT) it was still there. Looks like it was the carrier IQ causing the issue. I've done these three steps and haven't seen it since. Step 1: Settings>Location access> check 'Wi-Fi & Mobile network location' then uncheck 'GPS Satellite'. Step 2: On your device go to Settings>apps>runnings>Android System> IQServices> Stop. Step 3: Download 'Disable Services' app, open the app and go to android system the uncheck IQServices. That should solve the problem, also I use Wakelock and Greenify. Wakelock allows me to see what apps run while my phone is suppose to be idle and Greenify lets me put apps in hibernation so they wont do anything or process anything unless I actually open the app. I have an ATT G2 by the way..
Do you have any issues with knock on with greenify?

There was someone talking about how greenify broke knock on, but it ended up he just had a craptastic screen protector out on it. After he took it off it was fine.

Cache Update Service not letting phone deep sleep

It is a Google service and I have disabled location services and Google Now. Does not seem to make a difference. I have looked everywhere and have come up with nothing. I have the phone set up basically the same apps as my N4 and my Nexus is crushing my G2 in battery life. Any ideas would be great on what is causing this.

Are u talking about google service that you see when you go into battery usage options? If yes, im in the same boat as you.
What percentage of battery doew the google service use?
I would like to know how to take care if this problem as well

I am using better battery stats and it is partial wake lock I guess I did not bother looking at the overall usage. I am trying a few more things and will report back later.

add me to the list of people this is driving nutzo.
Question, when you go to google sync under settings/accounts and sync, does it show that 'sync is not available at this time?'
I wonder if that could be causing it?
I am waiting for my case to make it my daily driver but last night I tinkered and went and set up all my Google apps and changed my Google plus photo to only upload on charger. When I turned it off it was deep sleeping and and that wake lock was no where to be found. If anyone wants to try this and see if it helps.

High Google Play services?

For some reason google play services seems kinda high... its the second highest on my list. I'm not sure what could be causing this.. any ideas?

Also. Sync is off, GPS is off. I am not signed into hangouts or google+

That app is a hog! If you're rooted go ahead and make it a user app then greenify it. If you aren't rooted then Idk what you can do because unfortunately you can't uninstall it. :/

Make sure in the location services WiFi and data is unchecked. And you can also download betterbatterystats to figure out what the drain is also. Your battery should look like this. Screen should be the most used.

I turned off location services and location history last night before I went to bed, Seems much better. Google play services isn't even on the list anymore. I'll have to see how it goes today.
yeah, it seems every app wants access to your location.
i seem to have more issues on kk roms and none on TW roms like Golden Eye--may vary for others--
