Abnormal android os background data consumption

Hi.
I am on cm10 nightly 7-9-12 and I've got a very unusual problem.
The android os consumed 407 mb of data while I was asleep . I hadn't kept anything for download .
Can someone help and tell me what might be the reason for this and how can I prevent this in case it occurs again?
(Sorry for my bad English)

It's pretty abnormal, this is now android problem anyway, look apps u installed like game, or Google drive and same
Install only from market, only trusted app and install droidwall for block Internet usage for some apps
This is the solution, I don't think it's a bug

This could be due to sync between google, google drive, cloud storage of all your media, images etc in the background, shut down background data in accounts and sync , when not required

Thank you for your response, I'm afraid that doesn't seem to be the case. I don't use cloud storage, Google drive and sync is switched off always.

This is how I solved it:
Fresh install ROM
During setup, make sure to UNCHECK "Restore settings from Google" and "Backup .... to Google servers"
Data usage after setup was about 4-10M and growing fast subsequently but now after doing this its under 200k.
I'm not sure what happens if I turn the backup and restore back on but I'd experiment with it when I don't have to rely on mobile data as much and report back. Hope this helps.

Howto have a selective android startup

Is there any method by which i can define my startup android processes on stock rom. There are so many services that i dont use but they are constantly running like i dont use hotmai or gmail app instead i use the stock email app and hs merged my accounts. So beside uninstalling them i want to limit all such messengers and other apps.

You can freeze them using TB or use autostarts or Rom toolbox's auto start manager to disable the receivers which will stop the apps from starting on boot and various other criterias

By flashing a Tizen OS as soon as it becomes available.

Well i bet tizen would be having that feature and you will be the first to switch. You people were among those who boast about and show loyalty to symbian and were the first to switch to android. So its not advicable to negatively propogate about the upcoming stuff without evidence.
I am an optimist and will always be.

What is cacheupdateservice and why is it killing my battery

Google Services is the wakelock, and this is the main culprit. Keeps the phone awake about 50% of the time.
Have it on insertcoin 3.2-3, trickdroid 10, trickdroid 9.1.
Any idea how to fix this? Almost 2 hours out of the last 3:44

Do you use Google+ Auto backup? It could be an issue with that or syncing galleries
Sent from my Nexus 10 using Tapatalk 4

No I don't. Reinstalled the rom and only installed necessary apps and so far that process isn't there. Will keep testing.
Sent from my HTC One using Tapatalk 4

I will add that the process is only there when the screen is off.

Any update? I have the same issue on my stock Nexus 4 4.3

It's gone. My main wakelock is nlp collection, or something like that now, but it's minor, maybe 15-20 minutes a day.
Sent from my HTC One using Tapatalk 4

I am having the same issue. I turned off Sync and still no luck. The CacheUpdateService is killing my battery. Anyone have any luck finding the cause?

I was having this issue and after changing my exchange mail from push to 5 minute update I don't have this wakelock anymore.

Had this issue on my G2. After much frustration, i ended up uninstalling google play services with titanium backup, then reinstalling them. To reinstall them, I uninstalled a google play app (google play music in my case) and reinstalled it. The play store then had me install google play services from there.
Sleeping like a baby since.

Would that affect any app such as my email auto sync, Whatsapp, hangouts and others?

Does it work for you now? I can access it just fine. Could have been google servers resetting after the play store was hacked and crashed.

Have you tried connecting through wifi? It took a long time to load up the first time i tried and I had full bars on LTE. Just guessing here since it looks like your signal is not as strong.

I tried wifi also still no success

Here is a list of things you can try to fix the timeout issue. Have you messed with time and date settings? Or daylight savings might have caused a sync error with google servers? Good luck

Ok here is the work around I found if you go to Google play music app info and un install the updates for it . Then go back to Google play store click music it works for me.
