For some time now the battery life on my 5 II has been getting worse and worse. I reset the phone after my upgrade to Android 11 and after a couple of days the battery life was amazing.
Then more recently it’s been getting really bad, going from 60% remaining after 18hours to 30% remaining for the same period. Strange, because I hadn’t installed any new apps or changed any settings, although I do keep the apps in the play store up to date. I noticed that almost every time I went into the play store there was an update for Carrier Services.
I checked my battery usage one day and Carrier Services was the number one user of the battery, over 25% per day. This seems wrong and broken. I’m not saying it’s wrong and broken for everybody, but maybe there’s an issue between Carrier Services and Vodafone UK. Something not connecting or is in error. Either way, I’m not happy with any app that is using a third of my battery a day and not knowing what it is or does.
So I uninstalled it.
You'll need and ADB package if you don't already have one
adb shell
pm uninstall --user 0 com.android.google.ims

I’m on my first day of no carrier services and I’ve used 2% battery in 8 hours, instead of what would have been about 15–20. No ill effects, my texts work fine.
I’m not suggesting everybody do this, investigate any heavy battery drain on your phone and try this to see if it fixes it. You can always put it back by installing Carrier Services from the play store.
I had a transient Carrier Services version that did something similar, maybe 3 weeks ago, but not as aggressive as in your report. With it's latest updates via Play Store all went normal in terms of battery drain. Vodafone PT and A11 58.1.A.5.222 .
I don't understand why it's still rolled out as a default app in each Android build. It doesn't do anything. Originally it was an attempt by Google to turn SMS texting into WhatsApp. But it failed when no service providers picked it up and used it. Vodafone clearly had issues with it and removing it has done nothing but improve my battery.
What does the app actually do? For me it uses a total of 0%. I dont use my phone very often besides checking messages and maybe some music and the biggest battery drains are Screen: 23% Mobile network standby: 7% Phone idle: 6%
I don't think everybody suffers from the probem, it depends if the service works with your provider or not.

Yes, if you know the exact package name.
I uninstalled Carrier Services by uninstalling com.google.android.ims.... not com.android.google.ims, just saying...

Greetings!
I've recently bought Samsung Galaxy S3 and am trying to get the most of its battery by disabling things I don't need. The one of these things is Push service. I've managed to disable it for Google Mail and Google Talk, but I can't find how to do this regarding Play Store Push. To see how it works, I visit Play Store via my PC browser and chose anything to download. The next second my phone starts the downloading and installation. To me, there's namely Push service involved.
I'd appreciate if you share your knowledge/thoughts how to make this thing disabled. All settings of Play Store that possibly may have impact to this behavior are turned off. There also was an advice to stop Software Update service that I followed, but to me that didn't work. And yes, I have no root enabled, if that makes any sense.
Thanks in advance,
Eugene

Of course, it was the first thing to do. It has nothing in common with Play Store Push.
That service is not only used for Play Store, but for nearly all Google Apps and several non-Google apps, being called C2DM.
It does not consume any battery in normal conditions since it uses a technology called Comet long polling (aka "push") and thus waits for Google servers to send a notification, the device does not have to actively monitor for changes.
As long as you have data enabled you can safely keep it running since it won't cost you battery in idle.
Dropping your data to 2G is the only method to really save battery (disabling data does not really give you any more advantage over 2G with enabled Sync for all services, ~2-3 days of standby battery)
How about you enjoy your phone instead of trying to manually cripple it down just to get some more juice out of it?
Sound a bit paranoid to try to conserve battery in such manner. Is it necessary?

These minutes I could save by turning this off may be vital in some cases So, I assume there is no legal way to turn this off? I even can't see this C2DM in my SystemPanel App. Should I?
Ok, no big deal. If you guys insist I can leave it as is
Thanks a lot for the lesson.

No you can't. I can't even seem to find the toggle 'Background data' responsible for this feature in the current CM10 Jellybean build.

As I said, C2DM will not use battery except in 2 cases:
- when a message/notification is being pushed (well duh!)
- when you keep switching network or loosing internet connection (however in this case the C2DM's is neglectable in comparison to the modem's battery drain)
It is technically basically a few bytes in RAM that remind the phone that incoming data on Port X is Push-notifications. The underlying service (Android market framework) will run anyway.

I always keep a "mobile power pack" and USB-cable (which is a battery with USB plug) in the car and backpack so that I can easily quickly charge the phone either through the mobile power pack or an available USB port on a computer. In case of emergencies, lots of other people have a mobile phone too which you can borrow - you'll have to remember the phone number though.
Buying a smartphone and then not using it so you have some juice in case of emergency is somewhat ridiculous. Stick with feature phones then =)

There are a lot of other system options you can tweak starting from the modem and ending with the kernel and ROM features which all affect battery life. E.g. Siyah can be tweaked for performance or battery life.

Speaking of nearly all Google apps, I noticed this morning when I turned my rooted S3 back on that two of them, Play Books and Play Movies & TV, which I had frozen with TB, were back and had to be refrozen. Are these coming from Play Store and could I turn off auto updates just for them there? Annoying.
Push not working
Hello guys
I need your help here. So I flashed this new ROM, and the Google Push service seemed to have stopped working completely.
1. Gmail not pushing.
2. Google play store not pushing as well
I have played around (sync on,etc) but I can't seem to find what's wrong with it. So I tried to restore a previous Nandroid backup, but the md5 checksum was mismatched!
I then tried to wipe everything, reflash new ROM etc, and yet the Google Push services aren't working as well.
Can anyone help? I am stuck, I can't go back due to md5 checksum error, and I can't move forward because I don't get Google Push services
Bear with me. If you are an expert on android maybe you can help me out here. First off, I have researched the crap out of this problem and still been unable to fix it, so YES, I did search before making this thread.
I am on a stock, rooted Verizon Galaxy S4. I have been watching my battery consumption carefully via the integrated battery settings menu, battery stats plus and wakelock detector apps. Mainly, there is a program or set of programs that typically is called "Google Services" that according to the integrated battery menu is consuming anywhere between 20-45% of my battery, sometimes more than the screen on time! My battery life is around 48hrs with 10hrs screen time but that is on the massive zerolemon 7500mah battery which I just bought, so I am not sure if that is above, below or just average (i.e. I have no real standard by which to judge).
Like I said I have read probably every thread about this problem with remedies such as; disable location, turn off google now, turn off google maps reporting, uninstall updates for google play/google play services/google framework settings, turn off google sync etc. I have tried them ALL, none seem to work. I have a feeling the issue is perhaps more in depth and above my head.
It gets more complicated. Although the stock android integrated battery menu reports it as using a massive amount of battery, the other two apps I mentioned above do not even report it, or at least not under a name that I regonize (perhaps that categorize it under a different process?). Under them screen time is by far the highest consumer.
So what to make of this? Is it a false report that the stock integrated android battery menu is reporting, and thus something to disregard? I doubt that because there are many other threads out there of people with the same problem and questions I have. But It's also not like my battery drains within hours. For instance, today I have been off the charge for 12.5hrs, with 3hrs and 40min of screen time and have 63% remaining on the 7500mah zerolemon extended battery.
If you can help, please do. If this is indeed a major drain I would really like to fix it.
EDIT: Maybe I should have posted this in the general S4 forum?
Make sure you're running the most recent version of the Play Store, version 4.1.10. There was an issue with the previous version that was causing battery drain. Just do a search for the most recent play store .apk file and install it with the package installer.

Yes! I saw this recommendation a million times. I was runing 4.1.6, which without much thought I assumed was newer than 4.1.10 (I interpreted the .10 to be a one instead of ten). But after your post it "clicked" for me, so I manually updated the play store and will see after the next charge whether it worked. Thanks again.

If it were me, I would next try flashing the no-wipe stock image from open1your1eyes0. I'm pretty sure that will fix your issue while leaving your apps & settings intact. It'll save you a lot of time and aggrevation as well.
I've been having a similar problem as well where every day google services seem to take up about 40% of my battery... I just updated to 4.1.10 play store and unchecked the Wifi & Mobile Network location in location setting yesterday evening. let see if this helps... today 3 hrs with no Google Services in my battery reading yet...

Well, I may have spoken too soon with my above post. As soon as I unplugged my phone earlier today I saw google services eating up the majority of my battery. But of course that only accounted for 1 or 2 minutes as I had just unplugged it. As the day progressed the amount used by google services did go up but not by as much as it previously had. So perhaps the update of google play store to 4.1.10 did work.
Currently, after being off the charger for 8hrs with about 1hr of screentime google services has used up 9% of the battery, which although not where I'd hoped is still much better than before.

well thats progress. As for myself, 1hr 27m screentime and 1 hr 40m voice call and off the charger for 10hrs 30mins. currently the battery is at 65% with no Google Services usage in sight. This is with Wifi, bt, and gps all enabled.
Go to data usage and tap on EACH program you do not need to have running background data and disable the background data. I only leave things unchecked like google play and services, email, just only a couple of things needed to get your messages. I freeze maps untill i need them and only have google location service on and gps and VZW off obviously. I only have email sync once an hour and only work email as i manually check for personal email.
Do that and your google services will behave. Android System never goes above 2% and Android OS is never above 5% unless im using wifi and such then it might creep up to about 9% after a few hours. Nothing else is ever above 9% unless its screen or device idle or cell standby.
Well, according to the stock battery report google services is still eating up my battery at 34% usage at 2h 19m. I unplugged 13h ago and used 2h 42m of screen time and am down to 28%.
BatteryStatsPlus reports google services as "Google Account Management", and although it says it has used the same time (2h 19m), it reports it as having used 6.42%. So I wonder if this is an issue of the stock battery report being too high, or whether google services really does consume 34%?
I'd really prefer to not start flashing things or wiping the phone. I hate messing with it and although I rooted it that is as far as I'd like to go. But that google play store 4.1.10 update didn't work.
Ok so after the Lollipop update my battery life has been less than stellar. On kit kat i would usually have around 40% battery life left at the end of a day with medium use but now with lollipop I'm ending the day closer to 15% with the same use. This is usually with between 2 and 3 hours SOT. The only thing I've noticed that is any different is google services seems to be using more battery than normal, not a ton but more. Also i cant seem to get it to go into low battery use in location setting, it always stays on high battery use even when in battery savings mode. Anyone with thoughts on this?
Have you tried using greenify? It stops apps from refreshing in the background and if you buy the pro version you can stop system apps from refreshing. You may want to try this xposed module it will go and save major battery. I personally am on barepop (I uninstalled some extra apps though) and have both apps running in the background and I it takes about 10 minuates for the battery to die by even 1%. By the time I wake up and use my phone with heavy use all day long (6am-4pm est) I get home without about 60-65% of battery. You may also want to turn things off when your not using them such as data/nfc and bluetooth.

I am not rooted and am trying to stay that way, at least for a while. I do have greenify but only the free version so it is kind of limited. I haven't found any wakelock detectors that work without root so i cant get any real specifics on whats causing the drain. I just find it strange that google services will not go into low battery mode.

thanks, ill look into it
OK Best of luck.
Nothing in there for anything related to Google services. I don't know why it wont go into low battery usage, i checked all my Google settings and still cant figure it out.
Ok, well today i decided to just uninstall updates for google services, reboot, install the updates, and reboot again. And after dealing with the phone telling me there was no sim card twice, everything seemed to go back to normal, no more high battery usage from google services.
With my phone largely idle, Google Play Services is consuming 40-50% of the power and seems to be stopping the phone sleeping. The net_scheduler wakelock is the biggest culprit causing up to around 800,000 wakelocks in a day. It got to the point where I couldn't get through a day of minimal usage without recharging during the afternoon. I don't use Google+, I have turned off location services and disabled Google books, movies, games, search and google+ apps. I still have sync enabled for Google apps data, calendar, chrome, contacts, gmail and internet but I have disabled sync for drive, Fit data, people and picasa which I don't use anyway.
The problem was worse when I was using Exchange Services to sync with my work email and calendar. Turning off email sync helped a bit but Google Play Services activity still seemed to ramp up and stay high when I had a calendar appointment in Outlook, even with the sync period set to manual. So I have now removed the Exchange account completely.
I am aware that Exchange Services seems to be a common problem, something to do with the version of the Exchange server? Anyway that is not within my control. The serious battery drain started maybe 4 weeks ago and Exchange Services was responsible for most of it. Having eliminated that, its now Google Play, which also seems to be a common problem but usually NlpWakeLock? My phone is currently showing it has been kept awake 1h51m by Google Play Services since this morning, and 1h39m of that is net_scheduler (435409 wakelocks). GSam battery monitor shows almost continuous background activity even when I am not using the phone. The highest battery usage per app is by Google Play Services at 27%, the next highest is Kernel at 9%.
The battery drain seems to be worse when I am at work, where the signal is poor and I am on wifi but that has always been the case. I also use wifi at home. I turn off mobile data while at work to try and reduce battery usage. Other than changes to reduce battery drain I haven't changed anything on my phone for ages and I haven't updated or installed anything new, although I think Google Play automatically updated itself a few weeks ago.
What is net_scheduler and how do I stop it or Google Play killing my battery?

Same problem. Recently, battery has been draining crazy fast in standby. Wakelock detector shows this net scheduler causing 263,000 wakelocks over only 4 hours standby and lost about 25% battery doing nothing. Android 4.3 on sony xperia sp.
Using OS monitor app, Android system and google services framework are consuming 60% cpu power when phone is just idle.
Google are a bunch of idiots.
---------- Post added at 02:02 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:38 PM ----------
To fix, find Google Services Framework and clear data and cache. Instantly fixed the problem. CPU usage by Android system and Google framework dropped to 0 and wakelocks have stopped increasing.
I highly recommend the app OS monitor, let's you put a permanent notification which shows top 3 things consuming cpu power.
Before Clearing Framework (this was non-stop, even restarting didn't help)
After
problem has returned, google, you suck.
Hi, I have the same issue like you. I disabled some services of google play services and I was thinking that that was the reason of wakelock *net_scheduler*, but it isn't, because I flashed new ROM with all services enabled but *net_scheduler* is draining my battery again. Its strange that is showing it randomly, I mean some day I don't have that wakelock and the next day I have it. Really strange.
If anyone knows more about it please answer.
Hey,
I have the same issue. Since the last GPS update wont even last a day. I found also that the GPS are responsible and in my case its also the *net_scheduler* service. It is pretty active. I already tried a few things from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2357417
But so far nothing helped. It drains the battery really fast, yesterday my battery went from 50% to 30% in 20 min. That sucks.
If someone found a fix please post it here
Tried uninstalling google play services update, everything fine. Then updated it via play store and within a few minutes of update noticed phone was getting hot and laggy again. Same issue, something is going on with google play services causing massive wakelocks and high cpu usage. Currently at 1.4 million net_scheduler wakelocks in past 18 hours. Had to recharge twice even though phone barely used.
For no obvious reason, since yesterday I don't appear to be having the problem with Google Play Services any more. I haven't done anything to the phone, I am in the same location, nothing has changed on my end as far as I know unless I have inadvertently done or not done something that I normally do or don't do. In any case the problem appears to have gone away, or maybe it is just dormant waiting to drain my battery when I least expect it...
Something broken on the Google servers that they have now fixed?
Yep its fixed itself, there was an update on 18th June. The version with problems was 7.5.71 now its 7.5.74
Used my phone without google play services for a day and it actually doesn't affect much. You can still use play store, chrome but most other google apps won't work. Snaptube can be used as youtube replacement. If you can live without hangouts,gmail etc I'd recommend just removing it completely, save any future headaches.
Hmmm... I still have Google Play Services 7.5.71. Strangely Google Play Store says it has no connection, even though I am on wifi and other apps can connect fine. Maybe that's why it hasn't been able to hammer my battery?
What is the relationship, if any, between GP Services and GP Store?

I got the no connection on play store after clearing google framework cache. Had to reboot phone to fix it. Could be why the issue has stopped for you as I noticed it did too after clearing framework at first.
Completely uninstall google play services, it will reset to factory default. Re-enable it and launch a google app such as youtube. It will prompt you to update and bring you to google play services page on play store where latest version will be downloaded.
Google Play Services updated itself over the weekend to 7.5.74, lets hope this one fixes the battery drain for me. I never get any option to update or not, the only reason I know it updated is because I have an app that automatically backup up any app that gets installed, so I can revert to the previous version if an update causes problems. I did try reverting GPS but installation of the previous version failed.
Anyway, is there any way to stop Google services updating automatically? I can't find anything in the settings. I have Play Store set not to update automatically but that doesn't seem to make any difference. When google play services updates I don't get redirected to the Play store, it just installs the update without asking me.
Follow these hints next time.
Anyone else still having this issue? It's issuing a lot of wakelocks for me (Marshmallow/TouchWiz Note 4)

Started happening to me yesterday - battery was great until this
I've had the phone since the beginning of December. Right since then, I have had battery drain no matter what. In the first days I experienced it even overnight, I am pretty sure with airplane mode activated....
Later on, I wiped the cache from the recovery mode, didn't fix it. I used that 'GService fix' kind of magical app that everybody said it fixed their problems...it didn't fix mine. I performed a hard reset and I did not restore the google account apps, instead I manually downloaded only the apps that I really needed.
There is no apparent pattern on when the battery drain starts: I would find my phone hot and very rapidly discharging (if not already discharged), battery temp hot and cpu temp hot. I disabled all google now functions, I disabled GPS, at first I disabled only some google functions (kept only google keep, calendar and contacts on automatic sync)....but then a couple days ago I disabled the whole automatic sync. Battery still drained without using the phone.
I had read that one reason why google service would take so much battery would be having multiple accounts, or having some problems related with google play games and its sync. I do have games installed on my phone, and they require google play games to work, so that one is installed on the device but I also read that 'people details' under google account settings is relevant to the google play games sync. And in any case as I already said, the whole automatic sync has been disabled in the past 2 days, yet today the phone drained the battery while in my pocket.
I cannot understand what is going on. I am using GSAM to try to monitor things, but till now I have only been able to understand when was the battery drain starting and when was it stopping. I never found the reason. If I choose 'since screen off' on GSAM, I can see that it is again google play services taking most of the battery.
I can see with those softwares (3c toolbox, GSAM) some things, many of them I don't understand and some of them I don't even know how to set. It's pretty useless to know that suddenly my cpu goes high in clock and keeps 90/100% load if I don't know why. There is no rogue app, otherwise it would show on top, right? I can provide these two screenshots:
http://i.imgur.com/wPgGlu7.jpg
http://i.imgur.com/9hbVG0I.jpg
First screenshot: I had the phone on my desk since 2 days or so. Wifi on, no gps, no sync. I went out around 12:00 and that seems to be exactly the time when the battery drain started. If I choose in GSAM 'since screen off', google services is on top of the list. Unfortunately this cannot be very much relate with mobile data or so, because I have experienced battery drain even with airplane mode or at home with wifi enabled. Second screenshot: I don't know what to make of those packages......
I know that other people with the Axon 7 had the same problem, I googled a lot, didn't solve anything.....and I also know that anyway on any phone this can happen. I had very randomly the same problem on the Nexus 5 but never gave it too much attention because it wasn't too bothering, it was happening every once in a while, but with this Axon 7 I am touching it every 10 minutes to see if it's burning hot or not, constantly afraid to take it out of the pocket and find it with 10% left of battery.....

Assuming you're rooted, install betterybatterystats (search for it on xda). Use the phone as you normally would. After 6-12 hours, look at the results. It should give you an idea of what's keeping the phone awake.

yes! same thing with me. Google Backup Transport process fires up and eats battery for no reason. Doesn't matter if backup is enabled or disabled, I also disabled appdata sync. I posted two or 3 times in this community group as well:

What rom are you using?
stock, didn't change anything and to be honest should not need to (and not even want to).
My plan: try to find a solution. Good that at least I nailed it to the process (google backup transport - gms.persistent etc etc) and can research from there. I already found tons of people who had the same problems with tons of different devices and even android version (just google com.google.android.gms.persistent battery drain and you'll find the forums full of threads....of course everybody fixed it in the most different ways, none of which worked for me till now).
2nd plan: wait for the nougat update at the end of the month and see what happens
3rd plan: change device (warranty).
I am aware it is not a hardware problem, it must be some loop in the sync (but it happens even with sync off) or a bug in google services.
Hmmm, could you say you "just can't sleep" over it?
Sorry folks, friday post
Batter Battery Stats is usually a very good way to check for rogue apps, tho.

caused by what? By the way This is my update screen, why is it showing B04 and still saying that it is up to date? I have auto updates and I also checked manually but it says it is up to date.

Here the same problem. Irregular at intervals of 1-2 days. New installation of Google Play services no change. Restart helps only a short time.

5 days?? How much do you actually use the phone??
I don't know what was the cause. It was either a loop fail backup of google photos, or the update from B04 to B08 fixed it. No more drain, battery easily lasts 2 days without heavy use of the phone.

:laugh: 5 days without reboot. 2 days with one load. 8 hours display time at 24 usage.
All the US stock firmwares have the battery drain. It's usually google backup transport or google persistent gms. A reboot will fix it usually, but it will occur again later... Battery life is fine other than those 2. Let's hope lineage will be ok.
