Does anyone know exactly how to diagnose Google Services running down my battery? I've tried disabling individual bits and pieces that seem related, but whenever I check OS Monitor there doesn't seem to be any single culprit, yet my battery continues to plummet.... Also, the Gallery app goes nuts from time to time and hammers the CPU, even when it hasn't been run. Logs suggest some kind of face scanning going on, despite it being disabled in the apps settings. Only work around for that it seems is disabling Gallery, or manually killing the process whenever it respawns.
I've used the same Google account and the same data on an S2 and a Note 2 with no issues from Google Services, but since day one with the S4 it's a problem. Yes, I've tried a factory reset etc etc, I'm not a complete n00b
Is anyone having trouble with deep sleep after update of Google Play Services 5.0.77 ?
I've installed the apk from android police and since then my deep sleep is gone. Fortunatelly i've identified the trouble and uninstalled the version, but i would like to know if anyone else had trouble with this update.
Note: I've tried to install it many times and it always vanishes my deep sleep.

My phone (Nexus 5, Cyanogenmod 11 M7) update Google Play Services automatically to 5.0.84 and I've had the same issue. Over the course of today, it's used a good deal of my battery and prevented my phone from sleeping. I've tried changing my location settings, disabling wi-fi (and wi-fi location) and nothing seems to allow my phone to sleep.
I remember having this problem before, but I was thinking that I simply restarted it to fix it. That's not doing anything this time.
This is working for me on CM11 M7. Install Disable Service then go to "system apps" > "Google Play Services" and check "SystemUpdateService".
I tried disabling location services and related settings one at a time to try to figure out what exactly was causing the problem, but none of that worked. Eventually I uninstalled the updates to Google Play Services and that let my phone go back into deep sleep. After that, I re-enabled my settings, one at a time, to see if one of them triggered the problem again. Fortunately, I've enabled everything that I had before and my phone seems to be deep sleeping like normal.
Once again note that I am using a Nexus 5 rather than a 4, but I would think that the solution could work on both.
Hi,
I'm on the latest 7.1.1 and I'm having an issue with the phone being awake 100% of the time. The issue does not happen when in safe mode, which would point to an app issue, but I can't seem to pinpoint the problem, even using Gsam, BBS, etc. When I look at my battery settings, the chart shows that Google Services is the culprit. I have factory reset my phone and resintalled everything, but to no avail.
If Google Services is the issue, I don't understand why the problem goes away in safe mode. Is there an easy way to diagnose and remedy?
Thanks.
the battery life is decreasing while the screen is off because of the google play services it is causing like 5+ hours of keep awake i dont know why i dont use location services and my sync is turned off .
if you have any advice please enlighten us .
I had the same exact issue, Google Play Services was killing my battery, and nothing seemed to help. I ended up installing version 11.0.33 beta from APK Mirror, and it seems to have worked, battery life is back to where it should be. I have sync turned on and location services on too, and no issues.
It's been about a week and a half since I installed that version. I hope that helps.
well it is weird sometimes doing a simple restart helps sometime you have to wipe the cache and data of google play services
Issues:
1. Cannot turn off WiFi
2. Phone cannot find any networks to connect to
3. It connects after a reboot but disconnects after about an hour
4. imonitor (system process) installed on my device - wasn't there until this week, or at least I didn't notice it
Rebooting my phone lets me connect to WiFi for like an hour, then the problem occurs again. Updating to the newest version of EMUI worked for a couple of hours. What concerns me as well is a system process I found this week, called imonitor. Some say it's not bad, others say it's the spawn of Satan. Cannot force stop this process. Malwarebytes found no threat, not even after a deep scan.
What should I do?
Is there a way to remove imonitor?
Edit: The process is actually called imonitor, not imonitoring
Hi.
I have same issue. First time it happend few days ago, started with full discharge by night and alarm clock didn't woke me to work - grrrrr!!!
In the day i noticed that it restarted twice. Since then I the same problem as VixaZ.
I dodn't install any new soft, only automatic updates via Google Play Store.
I don't have a imoitoring app.
This also started happening to me recently on my P9 Plus - I thought because I had dropped the phone (from a low height) just before it started happening.
Anyway, reboot into Recovery mode & wipe the cache partition only (do NOT 'Wipe data/factory reset' for now).
Recovery mode for P9 Lite: http://www.hardreset.info/devices/huawei/huawei-l21-p9-lite/recovery-mode/

I have already done that, didn't work. But for some reason, after I reinstalled Google Music, I stopped having the issue. No idea how this works, but it didn't happen through the entire day until this very hour, so it might have been a coincidence.

Try going to Settings → Apps → More → Show system processes
Perhaps you'll find imonitoring then (I hope you don't)
I tried what you have suggested before, except since I have already had uninstalled Google Music, I just reinstalled it. And it worked, for some odd reason, for a good day.

Glad you seem to have sorted it.
It just happened to me again while I was using the phone for browsing via Wi-Fi - it just got cut-off for no explicable reason. Wi-Fi was still showing as enabled, but the connection to my router dropped. While doing so, I also noticed it simultaneously switched on mobile data. When I disabled mobile data (from the drop-down shortcuts menu), Wi-Fi immediately reconnected to my router - strange behaviour! At least I didn't have to reboot or shutdown & restart the phone this time to get the Wi-Fi to connect again!
I've now disabled Wi-Fi+ in the settings, which may have been the culprit - time will tell.
Same problem here, in a P9 Lite L21C432B380.
Tried the Recovery Mode + Wipe Cache option , but only lasts for some hours.
Sometimes, seems to recover with no extra action, but it returns to this undesirable state again and again...
Same problem here, but I have google play music disabled, and I tried already to disable or disinstall some other apps...
Hi
I was having the same issue, which I think is related to ongoing bug for Huawei/honor devices on Google play services version 12.6.73 (released last week). Read thread
https://issuetracker.google.com/issues/79405933
and search for wifi issues.
I was also having the Google maps bug (no maps displayed in some apps like Endomondo, etc.)
Waiting for a fix, for the moment I uninstalled updates of Google play services and wifi+maps issues seem to be gone...
Az.
Trying this too... and crossing fingers!
Thanks a lot!
Hi all,
I have the same issue, after waking up the phone, wifi is turned on in settings, cannot turn it off. Restarting the device helps for a couple of hours.
I am on stock ROM with latest OTA, Google Play services at version 12.6.73.
@czlantian try disabling google play services update: menu settings > applications, click on "show system apps", then select "google play services" in the list, click on the 3 dot menu, and uninstall updates.
I'm now on version 11.9.51, I have a few warning (which I ignore) from some apps, but wifi is fine again.
I assume google will release a new version og google play services soon...
Okay, thanks. Just did that and now I am on version 11.9.75. Lets see how it goes...

Since two days ago tried this (now with Google Play Services version 10.2.98) the WIFI issue seems to have dissapear but, as mentioned here, some apps complain (PDF Viewer, Telegram... that seem to work fine, anyway) and others have the maps problem (Mobile Topographer, wich does not connect to Google Maps, but searchs points).
Battery also seems to last longer.
In the issutracker thread they talk about a new beta version of GPS, the 12.6.85. Just downloaded it to try.
Have been trying version 12.6.85 of Google Play services for two days and, at least in one occasion, the WIFI issue showed again.
I have found version 12.2.21 in APK Mirror and have downgraded to it: just Telegram seems to complain, but only when sharing location.
