Hi all,
Can someone please help get rid of this stupid wakelock? BBS says google play services app is causing this wakelock, but is there a way to get rid of it without rooting?
try Naptime by Franco, it's an amazing app... you'll have to one time provide adb access to the app

Yes...I do know about this. The issue is it does a blanket app restriction but not app specific app components. I can't put Google play services into sleep as it literally make my phone a paper weight with no notifications whatsoever...

Dear friends! I need your kind help in answering the question why in screen lock mode, SGN screen turns for a second and turns off. It is not really a big issue for me, but sometimes when the phone is on the table it annoys already.
I thank you very much for your support!
Yours Fernando
Some app like weather widgets have options to wake phone up for some activities. Check your installed apps for this kind of setting and clear.

It could be an incoming SMS or phone alert, or an alarm...
Do you install any android apps which allow your note to be remotely controlled?

Thank you for responding! Actually no, I do not have any installed apps that remotely control the note. I thought about it, but guess there is no such apps.
Uninstall any suspicious apps you have installed ,or better yet root and install ad free ,air push ,and other ad checking apps on the market.
Then uninstall anything that gives you ads.
It happened yo me on my S2 before ,it's always an app that I installed keeping the phone from entering deep sleep thus causing battery drain.
Now adays I only install what I absolutely need.

Thanks! Will carefully check and uninstall suspicious apps now.
Can someone figure out what's wrong and give me a solution ASAP.
If you go into setting and then into the apps folder, you can click on and stop and then disable any apps you don't use, their is a guide somewhere that gives a list of apps you can stop, as you don't want to disable a critical system app, maybe somebody know where it is.

Download Greenify from the Play store. After installing simply add those offending apps (Google Maps is key example of one) to the greenify list within the app and it will suspend activity from that app when you exit and thus it won't produce any wakelocks.
Most effective tool I have ever used for controlling wakelocks and improving battery life.

Im not rooted,and do you think google now is the real problem because since the recent maps update I haven't seen "maps" listed as a wakelock.
I found the list for the one x, but i am sure there is one for the one m7 somewhere.

I don't use Now because I did find it was a big drain on the battery. Also if I remember correctly with Now enabled it would turn on the gps at regular intervals to record your location even if the user has GPS turned off.
Also personally, I feel that you should root any android device that has an easy root method and can be reset back to stock. With this phone, it is easy to do both.
A bit of a list for the One M7 here.

Was almost about to start a new thread until I saw this one. This is a screenshot from yesterdays battery but do my wakelocks look excessively high? I just downloaded the wake lock app I can't really post screens of that the data wouldn't be too accurate but here are yesterdays wake locks.
What would you recommend. I am about to download greenify now

Those wakelocks are off the charts compared to mine for a day. Which rom are you running? I guess you may have Google Now active as your google stuff is crazy. If you don't use them you should remove or freeze: Twitter, facebook, hangouts, google+
Greenify will help for sure. In a full day ~18 hours, I usually have about 500 application wakelocks (same report from GSam) and over 300 of them are my corporate email client. Android system and Google Services are about 100 per day.
Greenify really helps, but a good custom rom/kernel combo is the key.
I use ViperOne and ElementalX kernel and I overclock CPU to 1.9 and GPU to 450 and I have best battery life I have ever had on the One with any rom. I easily can go 28 hours of medium use with about 5+ hours of screen on time in a single charge.

Yeah the Google services wakelocks really do look crazy high how do I know what apps to greenify. I honestly have a minimal amount of apps as my phone is still pretty new and havent gotten all my apps downloaded.
I cannot remember if I had Google now on for that day or not but now I have it turned off and am about to get greenify. As you can see I was only getting 12 hours away from the charger and I think the wakelocks are maybe what were preventing me from getting closer to ~19 I am on viper 1.2.1 stock Kernel

I don't know which wakelocks you're getting with GS, but I was getting some bad location related wakelocks. I use Google Now and turning off Location Services altogether wasn't an option. So what I did, after searching the BBS threads was to force stop and clear data on these apps:
Google Services Framework
Google Play Services
Maps
Google+
Then I deleted my Google account and signed back in. Whatever was going on, that did the trick.
anyone else getting this? according to betterbatterystats , it says the cause is cacheupdateservice..
currently on arhd 31.0 and faux 008 kernel

Just go to the apps section in settings and kill all running apps, see if that will help.

is there any app/tool that will allow us to control and/or kill apps/processes better?

Yes there are in the playstore. But I would not recommend kill the apps or processes as they will harm the phone and ruin it's performance. I suggest just looking for the app that is causing the drain and delete it.

it's a background process initiated by google update service..
I have the same problem here since Google installed the Play Services update behind my back. I disabled the CacheUpdateService Service via System Tuner Pro abd prevented all wakelocks from the package via Per App Hacking. See if it works. Phone is now turned on for ten hours with 9 1/2 not in deep sleep due to the great Google update... Damn.

Hi,
My Xperia suffers from a Google Play-services drain, and keeps awaking it. Does anybody have a fix for this? Device isnt rooted jet, but can if must.
Softwarerepair didnt help.
Anyone?

Did you try to disable Google Now already? Or disable location based on wifi?

The only way to solve it is by disabling google play services (and enabling them only when you need them) or rooting your phone, installing an app like "Disable Service" and disabling some stuff under google play services and google services framework...but you could still get ocassional wakelocks here n there. This is how I do it.
If you still get EventLog wakelock, try enabling EventLog in both google services and google framework instead of disabling them. Just use Wakelock detector to see what is causing wakelocks and try disabling or enabling those services with the app I mentioned before. Let me know if it helps

Disabled Google Now, all location services (GPS/Google), disabled via AppOps some settings, but I get the idea that its still asking for location. It keeps awaking my device.
@finac94: How do i get those options you posted?

You need to be rooted and download an app called "Disable Service"

NP, let me know if it helped. I'm still fighting with the wakelocks sometimes, but it' much better than it was...you just have to play with the settings and try out different options. There's also some threads on xda about which services to disable so definitely check those out.
There's also an app called "System tuner" which also lets you disable certain recievers if the "Disable Service" doesn't help.

So this has been driving me nuts the last couple of days. I have this wake lock that only appears in GSAM and not in BBS. This its a false positive? Any thoughts on what it could be? I know I could wipe my device but I wanted to see what the root of the problem is.
I've uninstalled frozen all music apps (music, YouTube, google +, google music) nothing seemed to help. Any help would be appreciated!
Dang it, this posted in the wrong part. MODS can you move this to QnA? Thanks!
I'm looking for a fix for this as well. I also have the same issue and it's the app that GSam says is using the most battery out of all my apps.
Do you use poweramp?

Unfortunately I don't! Someone else mentioned that they removed that from their phone and it seemed to help. But that fix doesn't apply to me.
The nexus 6 had the same wakelock and most of us got rid of it by unchecking " use NuPlayer" in developer options
