Battery drain due to google services on JB 4.3

Hello community,
there has been a problem that is driving me insane for a few days. I have had this problem with I think all roms based on android 4.3:
google services keeps my phone awake!
WIth trickster mod I could see that my phone never (!) goes into deep sleep. Wondering about that, I flashed some other 4.3 roms - same result. Google services is No.1 battery consumer. Please don't say... "it's your apps or gps that keeps your smartphone awake" because it is not!
After some research I found that many users, most prominently 4.3 users, have a similar issue. Appearently, there has been some problem with that since one of the latest updates so that either google maps, gps, google now, or services in general cause this drain. Updating did not help, going back to an older gapps version did not help me either.
Finally I went back to miui being based on 4.2.2 and ever since the drain has stopped and my phone enters deep sleep almost immediately after switching the screen off.
Who has the same problems? Has someone found a real solution, other than deactivating all google apps? At least, this did not help me...

Thx I have read it but did not find a solution to my problem as most still suggest to turn off gps or wlan options... Although I have to admit that it is related to my problem but yeah... searching the xda app is more than difficult
one user wrote to stop wifi from constantly scanning... will have to try this the next time I am going back to 4.3 but surely many (or all?) users are suffering from this?

Same problem here.
Flashed XL based on cm10.2 + core jb gapps (20130821) and immediately noticed this insane battery drain. Battery stats showed Google Services as a main cause of the drain, so I did some researching, and found out, that switching Location improvement (Wi-Fi & mobile network location) would walk around that wakelock bug in google services. So I turned it off, and it helped for a couple of days.
Then I decided to sync my contacts with google account, and after a while, I've noticed the battery drain again, but this time nothing helps. I believe I've switched off everything I could in every Google app I have, and yet the drain remains.

Hy im allso having this problem, snice yesterday battery drain from google services ..im still on CM 10.1.2 (4.2.2) waiting for stable 10.2 to show up.. I keep all my sync and all locations off, no extra "funny" aps..not even facebook app.
(I have' service disabler ' because my phone was suffering from data lost..consumed by google framework..but it solve it..)
I allso search before posting but no solution since all location services that i have found are off since i have this phone..
Ps. New to nexus. Only about two months.. Any clue? Greets

msm_hsic_host still present on kitkat android 4.4

Hello guys, i think everybody update their phone to kitkat, and all knows about the battery drain caused of this wakelock related the modem (3g network) . For example when you are connected on 3g the battery drain alot also on deep sleep and its not good.
I heard that qualcoom has investigate in this issue but there is nothing new to fix it. So im asking everyone who have this problem if there is a new fix or something like that, also because there was an hudge update (ANDROID 4.4) but the problem almost for me, is still there. How could google release a new firmware without an hardware revision? this bug is present from android jelly bean.
If someone knows how to fix it please let me know because i can use only 2g to arrive at a day of battery usage with data connected. Thank you advance

I remember to read the solution in some thread...
1. Disable location
2. Reboot
Check if worked for you, it worked for me

Oh ok i will try, do you mean disable location under geolocation setting ?

As far as i've read about it, this will never be really solved.
It's some sort of a high speed interconnect between the cpu and the radio and these devices simply have to communicate. Some other soc's have the radio embedded, but the Mako doesn't.
Allthough it shows up as a wakelock, it doesn't really consume that much power.

This is absolutely right, some developers confirmed that. It's not possible to fix. But it's draining much battery, that's why I never use 3G/H.

i never use wifi, only my data signal. ive never had extra drain because of this, only great battery life. especially while the device is sleeping, almost no battery loss overnight(1%). maybe the quality of your data signal isnt very good.

Absolutely yes !! My phone doesnt drain crazy battery in 3g , while deep sleep it is now normal and you can see the differences with the op screenshot and this one

hey guys looks like it's work. I want to ask you what do you mean disable location under geolocation setting? sorry it's very noob question but can you become more spesific about this?
thank you

Basically what I observed is:
When I stay at home all day on WiFi this wake lock will only add some minutes.
When I'm at work driving around a lot through lots of different mobile cells with varying coverage and signal this wake lock can add to up to 2 hours per day for me.

Buddy there is no a fix because this wakelock is caused from crappy radio interface of the nexus 4. You basically can use 2g istead 3g, go on setting and disable geolocalization and put it from device only, then go on account settings tap google and disable unwanted sync. This will help a bit but keep in your mind, in this phone when 3g is on battery will be crappy in all cases ?

[Q] Battery Drain issues , need help !!!

If you can't find the source of the drain try a factory reset.

We went through so many threads like that, my man.
Do a search.
For the headup, assuming that you have already turned off Android location access, turned off Google location access, turned off auto-sync (I know you said you needed it but just for now, off it), turned off gps/mobile networks, do the following
a. disable Knock On/Off feature
b. disable CIQ (if you don't have CIQ, then ignore this step)
Note: do one by one and make an observation how the battery life behaves after each change.
Oh, btw, reboot the phone, say, right after unplugging the charge.

In term of battery life, I was considering myself as one of the unlucky one but after done all those, I got pretty good result. Normally last about 3 days with 6 hrs screen-on time and 4 hrs talk time. No wakelocks

you should know better than to give stats.... standby hours and battery life is varied alot by user, ambient temperature and etc.
OP if you feel thats not right, flash another rom see if it help, I'm using energy rom, its good for me so far.

Try remove some bloat and apk with titanium... A regular user can often remove 100 apk from these roms! And use bootmanager and greenify! Greenify is must have!

Don't hope, fix now.
If I was you, I would backup all my important personal info on the phone and factory reset it.
I would do those tricks one by one w/o installing any app yet and see how the battery fares after each charge.
General speaking, we need to understand the root cause and find the solution from there, if it needs to be rooted to fix the problem then you root it otherwise, blindly rooting and assuming everything else will fix isn't the right way to debug.

fact reset done , only whatsapp installed. same issue so i installed my other apps as well. im guessing its a kernel issue

N910F, "Android OS" battery drain - can't determine the cause

This started happening about a week ago... I didn't install any new apps in particular. I've attached screenshots to the post.
Screen-on time is a little below an hour in these screenshots.
As you can see Android OS and Android System are at the top of the list by a long shot. Android System seems "normal" in the sense that it has 58mn of CPU time and only 18mn of wakelocks (as reported by the built-in battery menu).
Android OS however kept the phone awake for 6h11 which seems like a lot. I'm not rooted, so I did the ADB USB trick in order to pull stats out of Wakelock Detector, and all of the apps clearly don't add up to six hours. Especially not the usual suspects like Google Services, Facebook, etc.
Diagnosis shows a LOT of system processes, and I'm not sure if that means 1) it's all good as far as user land goes (I don't have any weird apps) 2) there's a system process gone rogue for some reason 3) the cause isn't showing up 4) something else???
Does anyone have any idea what's going on?

I have the same issue. Tried greenifying everything. No dice. I reboot, phone fine, then stays away. I will say that my battery life is good though, but this riddle is driving me nuts

Here is my issue, look at away bar.

Me too - 910F - im on Lollipop, but struggling to make it through a day at the moment.
Checking my Battery Graph is the same Story - my phone seems to be Awake constantly.
Seems Android System is using it....
Anyone have any ideas?

I can only recommend rooting your phones and change roms or kernels.
TW is heavy on battery and if you change to a CM rom the battery life will increase dramatically.
I have rooted all my phones since the very first android phone ever made and i cannot own a non rooted device as the freedom of rooting is just to awsome to ignore.
Every time i have battery issues i ether change my rom or kernel and then my issues goes away...

Can't root Verizon unfortunately

Hmm. Try this. Unchecked under advanced wifi, the option to let Google and apps use wifi, even when wifi off. Since then, 12 hours, I have had normal sleep. Did reboot after Unchecked. . Premature to say I fixed it, but so far so good.

Update. Since unchecking that wifi option, phone sleeping normally still.

Update #2- after 36 hours. It's back! Awake constantly. Unreal

Ironically I see no difference in battery life.... Hahaha. But driving me nuts.
I get through entire day... About 3.5 screen hours on. At 7pm I'm at 20% typically. Maybe that's bad?

I'm usually around 40%. but maybe our app-age is different.

I've updated the Google Play Services to the new version 7.0.87 and this issue seems to have gone.

Marshmallow WiFi battery drain issue

Just updated to Marshmallow with the OTA update. Having massive battery drain. Especially from WiFi. Have already switched off WiFi and Bluetooth scanning under Settings > Location. Is factory reset working?
Can't post screenshots. : (

after updating you should do a factory wipe from recovery. and let the battery settle it may take a few charging cycles.

Please before creating a new thread straightaway, read the whole forum completely.
There is a special android 6.0 issue thread. Let the phone settle down a bit. Also in wifi advanced settings turn the keep the wifi on during sleep option to never.
And then let phone go through 2 or 3 discharging cycles.
If still then you get this wifi drain, do a factory reset.

Hi. Thanks for the solution. I did what you said and have less battery drain today. However, it is inconvenient to have WiFi off while the phone is in sleep.
Also, apologies for posting a new thread about an old problem. I had read through a couple of posts but did not find a comprehensive solution hence I started this thread.
Anyway, i will do a factory reset and update shortly.

Thank you very much, done it! Even though, it happens to everyone? Or just some people?

I think I found another solution
I had the same problem, and turning off "wifi scanning" was not doing it for me. I believe the bug has something to do with "developer mode". I went to settings -> developer and under "network" I enabled "enable detailed Wi-Fi logging" and "always allow Wi-Fi searches".
Wi-Fi is no longer draining my battery, and I have "wifi scanning" enabled (under location).

Hi guys
I have the wifi drain after using Moto voice for a short while yesterday. I turned off and turned of location as well as wifi scanning but wifi is still at the top of the battery draining apps list. I used to get 2 hours sot by the time I git 80% but now I don't get that sot any more. All this started happening yesterday when I used Moto voice for the first time on 6.01 to try it out.
Any solutions or should I just wait a couple charge cycles?

Thanks! I had decent battery life on stock 6.0 but started noticing bad drain ever since I've been flashing custom ROM. I had indeed traced the drain to WiFi as others here, pretty much on all the ROMs I tried, and I couldn't figure out what setting was causing the drain. Turning off WiFi scanning in Location did the trick and I have my old battery life back.

Yeah the "drain" my device was reporting wasn't actually draining anything.

Hai everybody.im one of the user of Moto x play by the performance of the mobile was very Good but past few days I'm facing wifi issues(battery draining)And I factory reset after completion the prblm may not rectify sooo plz any one guide me how to solve it that may very useful to me thank u...

Have you tried checking if wifi scanning is enabled in location settings? If so then turn it off
