Today was the first day in the one week I've had my oneplus 6t that I've had high google play services battery drain. It is at 11%
Has anyone experienced this, and what could have caused this?
My battery life wasn't that good today
Yes, same here today only, never noticed before. I kept wondering if I installed some app or may be some beta app sign up.

Could be one of these several updates from Google too, may be Google app? I am beta too.
Getting it here too, 20% when other apps are like 2-3%s. It must be a service issue then.
+1. Not as high as you guys but it definitely higher than normal.

This happens with all phones, even the Pixels. Update all your apps then clear the google services data. Reboot and usage should be about normal now.
Are you sure? That would reset all accounts and other info.
I tried Files by Google to clean up system files and that seems to clear it for now.

I remember reading something about this last week. I have the newest app don't see any issues...yet.
This has started happening to me now, first couple of days it was fine then it kicked in. The battery stats say it's running when in active use for 2hrs 2 mins but my screen on time is only 1hr 50 so I'd don't really understand that?
I had high Google Play Services drain too (about 12%). Turning off wifi and bluetooth scanning in Settings -> Google -> Location -> Scanning. Also disabled "Improved Location" under Google Location Accuracy in that same Location page. It brought my standby drain from 2% an hour to 0.5%. Google Maps is still fast as ever at locking my location.

Hi guys,
I'm just curious if is normal to get so many Awake locks, while the phone is on idle:

}
If is not, can you please tell me how I can fix this?
Thanks.
That don't look normal to me. Do you use latitude?
Latitude off, clear data and cache
Diced it here ... Too bad cause its a nice feature
I had this too.
Uncheck 'Use wireless networks' in the Location and security menu
and make sure you are signed out of Latitude
Ya I use latitude all the time so my friends know where I am.
I use latitude as well and I have the same issue. Maps gives a TON of wake locks with it activated. Problem is, I want to use latitude. I really don't understand the need for the constant awake time. It only updates the information every so often, it shouldn't be constant...
There is a defect for this bug that has been declined: http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=15057. I hope google will get to it at some point.
Thanks for the link. I did a test and I get like 24 of battery with the phone on idle... IMO is an amazing time... I might be wrong. On my old Pre2, I could of only DREAM of such specs. Still, if there is a fix to improve the battery with Latitude on, I'll take it.
Let's see how 2.3.5 update goes. Anyone knows when is it scheduled on generic firmware?
Don't get me wrong, I'm very happy with my XXKG3.
I got a Map update couple days back and the issue seems to go away. Will keep an eye on it.
Too bad, latitude is nice.
Had the same issue about one month ago , and solved it by uninstalling one of the google map update via Titanium Backup and everyting went back to normal .
May be it's related to one of those "updates" , and as mentioned before you should try updaing to latest version ( if available ) or downgrade to lower version .
Hi All
For the last week or so my S5 has been draining it's battery really quickly.
Having looked on GSam battery Monitor I can see that most of the usage is App Usage and of this the bulk of the usage is from Google Play Services. Looking deeper the culprit seems to be a wakelock from: *sync*/com.google.gms.auth.api.credentials/com/google/eM_ADDR

"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
As you can see in the pictures in a mere 36 1/2 minutes it's thrown up 10,000 wakelock requests, which seems little (hugely) on the high side!!
I've tried googling this and not had much luck finding anything which might help.
One thing I have noticed is if I go into settings>Accounts when I go to my Google account, I get the name of the account and it shows that it's syncing but unlike usual when it syncs quickly, it remains saying syncing and basically hangs and none of the buttons or options etc react. I'm guessing this is at the root of the issue but I'm at a loss as to what I can do to sort it out.
Has anyone experienced this in the past or have any thoughts how I might fix the issue?
Additional info:
Model: SM-G900F
Android Version: 4.4.2
Kernel version: 3.4.0-2089850
Build Number: KOT49H-G900FXXU1ANG2
Oh and it's rooted.
I had a bit of a play yesterday evening and discovered that if I went into data usage and switched off autosync, then switched off wifi and mobile internet and the turned auto datasync back on, I could go into the account setting and actually get into the area for my google account and enable and disable syncing of various items (Drive, Docs, news, weather, gmail etc etc).
After a fair bit of testing of one item at a time, it seems the problem is with my gmail account (or at least it definitely occurs when I select for my gmail to sync). As soon I selected this and renabled my wifi, when I went into accounts and selected the google account it constantly showed as syncing, at no point saying "last synced" as it had with some of the others I tried.
Obviously I want it to be syncing my gmail so I get emails without having to manually check my emails all the time. I've had a bit of a search about but not managed to find anything much (or at least anything much that is less than about 3 years old!) Has anyone else had this issue and fixed it?

Suddenly, Battery usage screen becomes as in the picture...
It seems that ONLY Google Services are using battery!
In parallel, I'm experiencing an heavy battery drain: it lasts only 6 or 7 hours while before upgrading to MM it lasts more or less 23 hours.
In addition, if I modify "Privacy" settings as in the past I cannot use phone because Google Services claims to use PhoneCall!!!
Do you have some suggestion(s)?
Thanks in advance for your precious help,
M.
I had the same problem some days ago. Even after a full wipe, after some hours returned.
I solved it a week uninstalling Google Play Services and flashing OpenGapps from recovery. Now it seems all right.

Really? I have the same issue same like you, and I do like I said before, and solved,, have you do a factory reset?
you should try the following:
1) greenify play services (you need donation package)
2) use better battery stats to see what is the problem
3) use disable service from playstore to disable all the useless part of the play services (google for "disableservice play services" and you'll get a list)
4) change kernel ( i recommend boeffla)
p.s. can i know the theme of your phone? looks beautiful
My apologies for delay but it was a busy day...
Suddenly, all statistics come back again!
And I'm not really happy with that because it could means that there is something wrong in this ROM
About theme: it is Deep Darkness by Moelle.
What is Media server ? It is couple times in top first draining the battery.

I've had this too a lot. It kills my battery.
I haven't had time to do much testing yet. I think it may be Google Photos. Do you use this and have auto backup enabled by any chance?
Or perhaps something related to the Gear VR software?

I had the same issue, I think it was Chrome causing it. I changed to Chrome Dev and it went away.
I'm pretty sure it has to do with music playing. It shows up if I play music through Google Play Music or other music apps. Google Photos shows up as Google Photos and doesn't seem to affect anything else except for Google Services.

Can confirm. After deactivating Chrome 52.0.2743.98 and exclusively using Chrome Dev 54.0.2840.6, Media Server no longer shows up in battery stats. Battery drainage turned normal, again.
Nevermind. Media Server still eating a bunch of battery. Must have something to do with media playback. Some s6 users reported that using AwesomePlayer solved the issue but that's no longer available in Marshmallow.
Nope, not media playback. I was getting massive drain from it for a week or two and hadn't played any kind of music or videos.
Hello everyone.
I have a irritating problem with battery drain. Google play services use a more than 50% of battery usage, I have to charge few 2 times a day while I'm using phone normally (sometimes browsing Internet, sometimes browsing Facebook, no using GPS) and the battery lasts maximum 6 hours from 100% to 10%.
I don't know how to decrease this usage to minimum. Uninstalling Google play services makes it better, but android without it is useless.

How it can be 50% for you? All the apps together is only 3% for me (hard gaming, mobile legends bb, minecraft, gta sa, real racing etc)

Disable location services or set it i.eLocation services to device only mode.....Thumbs up if it worked
Check that you don't have emojis on your whatsapp name. For me, it was causing some background sync errors and caused huge battery drain

I will check with my friend next time...that's extremely odd but intriguing bug!
My friend is on holiday with the phone for a week, I might have to resort to a factory reset. To be fair, it hasn't had a wipe since upgrading from Lollipop to MM so it is overdue one.
I just flashed to the newest rom and now it's OK.
I don't know what caused this usage but it was annoying. After flash and clear all storages everything is good now.
