What's draining my battery? I made one phone call and been off the charger since 530 am is 8. My screen on time was at 2% before I started to search for a solution and it jumped up to 30% in 5 min.
Does anyone have a solution

There could be a ton of reasons why google services os draining your battery. This has been solved in this thread btw wrong place to put a question.

First try to log out of your google account. Wipe data of the playstore app and google services reboot and relog in back to your account if that doesnt work download any app that moves system/ apps to data/apps and move google services and download from playstore greenify and just greenify playstore. Hope that helps

This is true! I left buzzfeed on in the background and it took 25% of my battery life in 1 hour. It used more battery life than my pandora app. I couldn't quite figue that out.
Hey guys, I just noticed that Google services has been using up a good deal of battery for the past few days... My autosync is off, gps off but still has it using up a fifth of my battery.. Anyone else have similar problems?

I have noticed that even in flight mode and screen off, there is a significant amount of battery drain (i saw 20% less in 6 hrs). With previews phone.. would be 2 to 5 %. I think that the key would be to underclock it in iddle mode
Do you have Google Now and maps location reporting enabled? Those two are major battery hogs.

This worked for me and a friend. Go to Application manager then Google Play services and click uninstall updates. After uninstalling launch Hangouts. It will tell you that you need to update at which point do so. Hope that helps you out like it did me.
I am willing to bet these drains all occur after Google app updates? It seems that most Google apps want to eat battery the first cycle after they were updated. What I have noticed though, is that even though the "battery" stats report Google services as using a lot of percentage, the actually time the phone takes before it needs charged is about the same as when battery stats doesn't report Google services as eating battery.
So, see if "Google services" or Maps or any other Google app doesn't settle down after a cycle and also check to see if it really is shortening the time your phone needs between charges. I suspect it might just be temporary or maybe reported to the phone wrong.
Except for Google Music, freeze it, it will eat your data.
i uninstalled the play services update, and i disabled location services..seems to be fine now. ill turn it back on after a while to see if problem is caused by updates.

Today I noticed that Google Services is draining battery by using some services but unlike before it is using it a lot.
Did any one experience this strange issue?

I'm pretty sure that's one of the ways we can take in order to save a bit more battery, but then again, why are we buying high-end devices with GPS tracking for whatever apps or security as I have (cerberus app) or real-time mails of work, social feed, etc.
Someone will say that they don't need instant mails on the device or don't want the GPS; point is, having GPS/push notifications should not be an issue for any user since those are the features we can, want, could use..
Only thing I really miss on blackberry devices...
This did not happen before which makes it strange, well at least not having that much percentage.

Just to update on this. I done some reading online and found a few people mentioned that it was the latest play store update causing the battery drain. I went ino the app manager and deleted the update an went back to the original playstore apk that came with the rom.THis seems to have reduced my google services drain and my phone is lasting longer now

I have GSam battery monitor installed on my Note 3 (SM-900) running stock JB 4.3 (MK1) ....
Since a last few days I have witnessed battery drain on my phone without any apparent reason....I charge my phone to 100% at night (wifi & 3G data is off at night) & when I wake up after about 8 to 9 hours of sleep I find that the battery is down to 85% !!! Strange isn't it ...
GSam battery monitor says that nearly 67% of battery is used by "App Usage" , on clicking App Usage for bifurcation of battery usage I find that nearly 50% of my battery is used up by "Kernel (Android OS)"......How to control this , any help will be appreciated dear forum friends !!
Please help me regarding this unusual problem....
Turn location services off. And then go check out @stanley08 thread about battery saving tips.

There are 2 things checked in my "location services" ...1) Access to my location....2) Use wireless networks.
Do I need to uncheck both ??

In that case do I need to turn on my GPS ?? Because there will be a few apps requiring "My location permission" !!
Yup all location and GPS data needs disabled. It milks your battery

They won't get permission. If you need maps or navigation then turn it on temp

honestly it is not the real cause.
i personally dont turn off these 2 options, and dont have problem with battery.
but sometime (ONLY sometime), the Android OS also eat my battery. Just reboot the phone and no more problem
So try to reboot your phone?
Hi Ketani,

Frm the screen shot it seems you have background processes running(BBM n alarms). If you are always on 3g/wifi then the battery draining is normal. Or you can buy a new one for your satisfaction. Or charge it fully n dont use it just check for successive draining and if it drains within minutes then buy a new one.
Turn of features like google now and google location reporting. They consume hell lot of memory. Install greenify.

Try to check your battery if it is swollen...this is the big down of s4..
Or maybe a bad flash of your rom if u have
I'm using lindroid rom and i experienced good battery life. I also tried thunder_universe rom and thorvicc did a good job...
Try also one of any custom rom it might solve your problem
thanks to all
