Much Needed One Bro :good:
Does anyone know what they are actually doing with this.
Website doesn't exist, there's no details on what it is or does.
Just some random promotions on a couple of forums.
Suspicious head on suggests this might be suspicious., I haven't downloaded it to rip apart yet, but I wouldn't rely on the word of a developer who says "this won't harm your device " as a product description

You should try Wakelock Terminator, if you've got xposed.
Quoted from Reddit:
I know a great fix, if this can get to the top it will help a lot of people. It requires the Xposed framework and the module Wakelock Terminator. The free version lets you block 1 app, and that's all we need. Open up Wakelock Terminator, choose to block Google Play services, and filter it with the following: NlpCollectorWakeLock NlpWakeLock CheckinService NetworkLocationLocator
My Google Play Services and whatever else alias it is called went down by a ton, no effect on Google Now. Here's a screenshot of the Wakelock terminator app so you can see what it should look like.

Basically this just disallows it to keep the phone awake while still keeping the functions.
If you don't care about the functions (all these 'location' functions) then you could also get this: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=cn.wq.disableservice - go to 'Google Play Services' and turn off the servces that keeps a wakelock.
anyone going to "approve" this?
So in that way we must choose batery drain or localization ?
testing now... ty bro
is it really working?
I dont know anything about codes nor trying to bash this developer, but the some google play reviewers state they have gone through the codes and it is nothing but a scam......

Has anyone noticed this wakelock in Better Battery Stats or any other battery stats app? For the past day or so, this has been keeping my phone from deep sleep continuously and I've never seen it before. I just wiped cache & dalvik to see if it persists.
Yes I got it for the first time yesterday. Did a force stop on the google frame work and it stopped. Seems like it came with the latest gooogle play services. I hope they fix it soon. Has not come back so far.

I have seen this dreaded wakelock and found no good solution....It comes and goes away on its own (I had tried cache and dalvik)
Back when I had root, I also tried to disable this service using a root app called DisableService. Though that seemed to have some other side effects, so I gave up....Now I am on 4.4 and Wakelock detector does not work with Kitkat, so I am not even able to check if these are happening anymore...Ignorance is bliss

So you haven't noticed any significant battery drain from it?

Yes, no significant drain..However, it would still annoy me seeing this one in Wakelock detector/ betterbatterystats that too for hours.....Its a service contained in Google Play services which is closed source, so can't even find out for sure what this exactly does
Damm you Google

I wiped cached and that wakelock seems to be gone. *knock on wood*
I assume that others are having this issue, and wondering if there is some fix I may be missing short of turning off location services (find them helpful and don't feel I should have to cripple my device for battery savings). I believe it is linked to it using WiFi networks to search for my location, although my WiFi is toggled off. This across all ROMs I have tried, though randomly it doesnt happen but always returns.
Thought it would be helpful to have a place to have open discussion on this issue and see others impressions.
Thoughts, suggestions, fixes?

1. Settings > WiFi > Advanced > WiFi Scanning Always Available (disable)
2. Settings > Location > Google Location Reporting > Off,off
3. Use App Ops (built into roms known as "Privacy Guard") and go to Google Play Services and deny permission to Keep Awake (Read more, http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-one/general/guide-google-play-services-battery-t2832525 )
Why thank you!! I have done this, and will see how it goes. GPS wasn't in privacy guard within SlimLP but accessed it from settings>apps>all>google play services>permissions>modify

When you go into Privacy Guard, go to Menu (top right) and enable Show Built-in apps or something similar to that. Then you'll see GPS in Privacy Guard
Indeed!! Thanks boss [emoji106]
How do I do this with stock 5.0.1 / rooted
I really hate to bring this thread back to life and I apologize for that but I'm suffering from this bug and it's nasty. I'm barely getting 2h of SoT while other dudes are getting 3~5h of SoT. I did what this thread said and after tweaking with app ops freaking Google Play Services is going nuts crashing every 2 seconds, sometimes one right after another with that annoying message making the phone unusable. I'm on Pure Nexus 5.1.1, no CPU tweaks nor kernel mods. As far as I go with battery related apps/tweaks is greenify. Any ideas?
Did you make a backup before applying any changes in privacy guard? Have you reverted the changes you made back to the default? Also, try going to settings - applications and clearing data for Google play services

It's Google Play Services.
It may help to turn off Usage Data Access for Google Play Services.
I turned it off for all of my apps that have access/request it.
I've found these two apps to be of use,to make easy work of Googling what exactly an is/does:
PACKAGE INFO:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.osp.pmanagerinfo
APP INSPECTOR:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ubqsoft.sec01
How did you find out which apps have permissions for this?

Most all android apps are dependent on Google services. Generally speaking, Google services is heavily integrated throughout many system apps as well as downloaded apps. It's a core dependency. If you get com.google.android.gms errors, it could be one of many applications that can cause this. You would need to run Logs in order to find the culprit or try uninstalling applications one at a time until the error stops appearing. Once you find the app, contact the developer of the app and provide your log and ask for help.
Hey there, thatnks for the info.
But where can i find the logs for such cases?

com.Google.Android.gms refers to Google Play services, which is an essential component of the Android operating system. Google Play services is a collection of APIs (application programming interfaces) and background processes that help apps communicate with each other and with other services provided by Google. It provides features like location-based services, authentication, cloud storage access, and more.
Hi All
This weekend I installed parallel Whatsapp for my second number. I have a private number and work number so I need two Whatsapps.
Since I cloned whatsapp, I get "Communication error 16" when using Android Auto.

The problem is similar to one they had a couple of years ago on the Oneplus 3. There's a thread about it on their forum. If I remove parallel Whatsapp, AA functions normally again.
Anybody who knows about any fixes or workarounds for this? On the Oneplus forum it seems that the problem was solved by an update of the ROM so I'm afraid that this might not be an easy one.
Try using GBWhatsapp (or similar Whatsapp clone) as an alternative to parallel Whatsapp for your second account (phone number).
Thanks @mNiosu, that looks like a great workaround.
I did find a better solution however. When installing parallel apps, the Mi 9 asks to clone the "Google services framework". Because I needed Whatsapp on my work number as well, I took the plunge and recreated the parallel app, this time without cloning the Google Services Framework.
Android Auto now works flawlessly. A really simple solution but you have to know it of course.
Pls help
@ljo13
Hey. Super. I have the same problem.
You solution sounds great. But I'm not able to do it...
Mave u can make a short video or a detailed description. I would appreciate a lot.
Thx

I've turn off GPS and even in apps turn of request for location . After that i saw that was so low . I turn off synchr. without gmail . Was better but still too much..
I read in reddit that google app service is normal. But others apps request information and data from google so google app service is working and use battery. So after that I uninstall all apps that i do not use it. Apps that i cannot uninstall just turn off it. For now i charge to full battery and watching resoults .
I had the same issue and found out it was two of my apps - MicroG and a VPN app. When I use VPN on mobile data, battery usage reads it as Google Play Services instead of the VPN app. Same goes for MicroG using a hell lot of background data and logging as Google Play Services. Another is Messenger app - I included it in restricted apps in battery management to reduce usage. Now I'm getting normal battery life.
