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?

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 in the android battery stats, google services always appears as the biggest battery drainer,
however, kept awake time and cpu usage time seems reasonable (cannot possibly account for 60% battery use)
In Gsam battery or better battery stats, there is not sign that a considerable amount of battery is being used by google service.
Altogether, i am still able to reach almost 5 hours of sreen on time over 24 hours (quite reasonable) i would just like to understand if this is bad reading from the android stats app, or if there is actual drain here.
I am currentrly on stock 4.2.2 with franco's latest kernel.
i flashed a clean image of 4.2.2.
google+ and gtalk signed out, report location from device is disabled. auto backup disabled
any advice? anybody with similar issue.

I'm having the similar thing. No idea how to get rid of it. When trying to disable some of the apps (namely Google Services Framework), Play Store keeps fc'ing.

It is likely an actual drain. I would try uninstalling the updates or updating to the latest version.
I have perfect battery life on my S5. I convinced my coworker to get an S5, but their battery life has been total crap. Their Android OS is at a whopping 40%! Mine runs at maybe 20, but more like less than 15% (I am rooted, but before I was I noticed it at maybe 20%). Thoughts? I heared of the deepsleep bug, but I think that is for old android version. All help appreciated!

I've noticed the issue with GPS location services and Google Play Services.
For GPS, try this:
Turn location OFF (if it's already off, turn it ON then back off after a few minutes).
Reboot
Turn location ON
Reboot
This fixed one instance of battery drain I had... Don't know why or how, but it did.
For Google Play Services, I cleared cache/data for this in Application Management, uninstalled updates, rebooted, and let it update again. This fixed the instance of this battery drain.
I am not sure about Stock 4.3 rom but this method definetly solved the issue in CM 11
After updating Google Play Services to 7.0 or even on 6.5 there was severe battery drain due to play services running in background.
When i observed battery Stats for one day, around 70% of battery was draining due to Play Services on Standby mode.
So here is a easy guide to solve the issue for CM 11 :
1. Go to Settings>Privacy>Privacy Guard.
2.Touch on Menu>Advanced.
3.All App ops will be displayed, go to Google Play services.
4.Change the option to Denied for following:
Location>Denied
Wake up>Denied
Keep awake>Denied
5.We can again change the setting to Allow when needed.
Look at the ScreenShot in attachments after I applied these settings.
Now there is only 2% of the battery drain by Play Services.

Joking bro.
Anyway what you claim does make sense (especially in my eyes) because google related services have a habit of draining battery, commonly by wakelocks, so disabling their wakes would help. I am also on CM11 and am getting battery drain from google services (not google play services) but the same applies as it has kept my device awake for 2hrs + till now.
Samsung Galaxy S10+ G975u
G975U1UEU1ASD5
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?
