Lately I feel like my battery life has gotten worse. If I check my battery stats, it shows Google Services consuming a major portion of the battery, typically 25%-35%. I've also found my battery life has gone down to about 25% left after 16 hrs being unplugged and only 1.5hrs of screen time. Any suggestions as to what could be causing this?
I have this occasionally happen with Google Services. For some reason, it just starts holding the phone awake all day and the only cure I have come up with is a reboot (other than opting out of everything Google).
Try disabling GPS for the day and see if that helps.
Hello people
I bought z3compact, and I started to have big problems with battery drain, I tried to downgrade on 5.0.2, then tried factory, then 6.0.1 beta, and at least I tried custom rom Lolipop Slim and everytime is same story, I barely had one day battery juice, and when i go to sleep, I lose more than 20% thorough the night, when I go to settings number one in battery using is Cell standby, SOT I have barely 2 hours.
Is there any help, I think the radio is problem.
Thank you very much

Check the mobile radio active time in the apps that show the greatest battery drain. If any of them are more than an hour when you're sleeping, then the big has bitten you. Connect to wifi as a workaround. There's also a supposed fix for the mobile radio active bug somewhere on XDA. Try searching and food luck!

Look at which apps are using the most battery under settings/power management/battery usage.
UNINSTALL facebook, which will be the biggest eater of battery, access it through the webpage
If you have a rooted phone, install AFWall., then restrict whatsapp,twitter,*messging apps* to wifi only, see if that makes a difference. Once you see a difference in batterybehavior, slowly let them back onto mobile data one at a time until you find the culprit (whatsapp probably)
Google Play Services is a usual suspect. Start by turning off synchronise on your google account.
There's a fix for google here.
If you have poor reception of mobile signal in your house, trying turning the phone to GSM.
Settings/wifi/advanced wifi - scanning always available OFF - keep wifi on during sleep ONLY WHEN PLUGGED IN
Research on the BBS thread
If you have a rooted phone download Disableservice from the playstore.
Once it's installed, open the system tab, open Google Play Services, then untick (disable) the following:
ConfigFetchService
FitnessSyncAdapterService
GoogleLocationManagerService
GoogleLocationService
NetworkLocationService
ProximitySettingInjectorService
UserPresenceService
WearableControlService
WearableService
WearableSyncService
then reboot your phone.
Disabling these from running should have no impact on your phone, it doesn't for me, and will give you 10-15% more battery life.
The other thing that extended my battery life was deleting the cached data. Settings\Storage and hold down on Cached data until you get a popup asking you to delete it. I know it sounds bizarre, but it really worked.
As a last resort you could try amplify as it is good at reducing wakelocks, but to get it running requires xposed as well as entering lots and lots of changes to the phone timings, getting these wrong will stuff your phone! Beware

There's an extremely great guide here on XDA on how to save battery Here check this out
It incorporates Greenify which is used to hibernate apps, Amplify which is to limit wakelocks and many more, personally Ive been noticing a great improvement, I only lose 1% per 8 hours per night of sleep
battery
So I tried everything that you wrote, and last hope was KITKAT, and baterry is little bit better but not enough, barely I can use it one day, so when I am on sleep battery % drops quite fast, about 4% per hour, but when I have screen on I have 20- 25 minute in 10 % of battery. do you think it is battery bad or software bug?
Thank you
So guys i put marshmallow, and when the screen is on all day i have 6 h of SOT, but when it sleeps i have barely 1-2 h SOT, what the hell is going on with my phone
Screen on time measures just that, the amount of time the screen is on. You can drain the battery by playing music all day and get 0 hours of screen on time. It is not and should not be used as an indicator of battery life. Send us another screen shot of your usage statistics

Hi everyone -
I have a stock Note 5 and all of a sudden for the last couple days I have been seeing crazy battery drain during the night. Last night I went to sleep with it at 100% and when I got up 10 hours later, it was 62%.
I have linked a screenshot of the battery usage. Can anyone help me fix this?

Mine isn't as bad, but it's been horrible since the last OTA update. One guy mentioned the bluetooth seems to be the culprit.
Sometimes a rogue app abuses the awake state and keeps draining battery (*cough*facebooksucks*cough*).
Check for any wakelocks or a continuously running background service or app.
This problem helped me too and i flashed stock rom 6.0.1 and then flashed root.img (root file for odin)and then corrected.
Sorry for my english.
I am running 7.1.2 and a few weeks ago I noticed my battery usage during idle went up drastically to ~5%/hour, with the phone just idle, airplane mode, on wifi. No Facebook, no bad apps, just very minimal. So I installed Wakelock detector and I see my cpu is being kept awake by Google play services. Turning off BT/GPS etc didn't make a difference. I'm running LOS with the Blackbird kernel.
So now I'm a bit lost. I know Android is extremely inconsistent and things like this can happen for no reason. I have no clue how to tackle this except reformat/try a new Rom.
I just got my K20 Pro China ROM.
I installed google play services from the guide I followed here :https://www.revu.com.ph/2019/06/redmi-k20-pro-install-play-store-apps/
I'm only getting 2hrs of SoT! My phone is heating up very fast.
My phone went from 100% to 80% when I left it idle for an hour. I checked the battery stats.
I already disabled sync. I'm afraid it would damage my battery permanently if this persist.
What other Google play services version would you recommend? Thanks in advance.
