[Q] Better Google Play Services version?

Hi, I want to know if there is a better version of Google Play Services compatible with the latest Google Apps like Gmail, Keep and Calendar, cuz the last one available in the Play Store drains my battery very fast, and if I do a downgrade to the factory version that the phone has the battery drain stops, but I CANT use these app that are update; the phone says all time that I need to update Google Play Services for get some apps working but I dont want the last version cuz the problem that it generates :/
Any idea or help?

You can downgrade your Google Play Services apk but it will self update and some applications will not work without the latest version of Google Play Services. My battery is also draining fast because Google Play Services is forcing my phone to stay awake. But now it seems to be fine. Just give it some time to settle.

google play services crashing without an error message

hello guys
phone samsung s5830
android version 2.3.5
rooted
link2sd installed
a while ago my phone screen stopped working for no reason it was not even because i dropped my phone , touch screen was fine and you could see the screen lights up but nothing on the screen so i had it changed when i got my phone back i noticed that google play store was missing and also went to the apps list but could not find google play services so i just rebooted the phone and everything was back to normal then after some time the phone started to lag every like ten seconds however after a day or two of monitoring the running services i noticed that google play services ( gmscorestatsservice---indexworkerservice---checkinservice ) was constantly trying to restart but the timers would also remain the same and without getting any error message
to solve the problem i tried the following:
removing all the apps - resetting the phone - did not work
removing all the apps - unrooting - resetting the phone - did not work
rooting the device again - resetting the phone - did not work
note: the phone is almost useless because of this issue
so if anyone can give me an advice i would be so much grateful
thanks

I think that 7.8.99 is the latest version for this device (Android 2.3.6).

Wouldn't it be updated automatically again?

thread: google play services crashing without an error message
thanks for your efforts guys
but google play services are always updated automatically so is there a way i can downgrade and prevent it from updating again and how can i downgrade

to downgrade uninstall google play services and install the attached file (first you have to unzip the content).
to prevent it from updating automatically I guess it depends on how updated the application you use.

Are you positive? There's been an update out for a while now? Google Play Services has never updated automatically for me. I always get a notification saying that Google Play Services needs to be updated. To downgrade go to your phone's installed apps, find Google Play Services, and press Uninstall Updates. Try this website for updates. Read the instructions on this exact page to find the appropriate Google Play Services for your device. They are for every device, yours included. Like I said though, follow the instructions to find your exact update.

Battery Drain from Google Play Store on 5.1.1

Has anyone noticed a lot of battery drain from Google Play Store since updating to 5.1.1? the only way I can stop the drain, is to disable Google Play Store.
I am happy to report that the problem was with apps not being able to update in the play store! After trying the troubleshooter I found in the Play Store I had Google call me and after trying a few other things, she had me delete my Google account and reinstall it. That was the last step before a factory reset! It corrected the problem I was having, and I hope it helps some of you, too!

It does this to me if you have updates that need to install. Hopefully marshmallow will fix how often it tries to sync. It's very active in the background. I believe you can choose to not have it sync in your settings menu. It may help. Mine still last a long tie but you are dead on with drainage. I noticed this right away when I updated to 5.1.1

I figured out that I can no longer update or download ANYTHING from play store

My battery life is back to normal.

Google Services on Remix Mini

So has anyone seen anything on the Google Services Issue since the short statement with the release of 2.0.402? Did this issue come about because of Remix OS or Google Services policy in China? I submitted a ticket and the only responce was there will be another statement soon.

What issue are u having?

I was wondering when support for installation of applications and games to external storage (USB thumb drive or card) was going to be added. Also where I reinstalled Google Services via the Remix app store will I still get OTA updates?

might have to wait for 3.0 cause lollipop has issues with moving apps to sd/es, even my S5 Galaxy gives me issues.
OTA is works fine after getting services.

How far away is 3.0 which I take it will be Android 6?

No Updates, but reboot to apply updates

Two shots. One is me checking for updates manually. The second is only seen in my notifications. If I swipe away it disappears for 24 Hours.
I'm on June and rooted. I'm confident in reflashing if something were to go wrong, so with that said, anyone find any use to test with this?

it is a play services update (not a system update), most likely specifically for "Google Play system", July 1st update.

Looks like it was a Google Play update. Weird that it jumped from May to July and that OTAs don't do that for me.

google play system updates are not related to OTAs. it's a totally different story now, gplay system updates will be installed in the background, especially different other things, like fixes/driver updates, which gonna be updated "frequently". look up for mainline updates etc.
