No Omega v9.0
Also running the latest play store which is 4.3.11
You can disable it (freeze) if you don't use google services as google+ or google play (and maybe others). Those two ones require an active google services app.
Anyway, it's useless to uninstall it because il reinstalls itself at next boot...

I don't really want to resort to freezing the app

Disable Google now and disable location history and reporting in Google maps.
Really helps.

Did you have restored google maps with titanium ?
For me google maps need to be installed from the play store only !
Turn off 'wifi & mobile network location' in location services. Then go into accounts / Google and then click on your Gmail account/s. Un tick all the syncs you don't need. I only leave on email and calendar. Also check your Google play settings. I have auto update turned off.
I suffered from this problem too on omega v9 updating to v10 and above solved it for me

I think you are confusing his s4 with the octa s4.
Source: check his signature.

PS: I find not having Google maps installed helps.

Check out this guide, you will lose gmail notification but it still is fully functional and now I get about 4 days of standby time.

What worked for me was to disable the Google setting for finding your phone. It solved the battery issue. I don't understand why but it works. As opposed to turning off the network location.

Ok. So I keep getting this error message when I try to download apps. It doesn't happen to all of them. Weird thing is I can download this app to my transformer with no problems and once it's downloaded to that I can download it on my phone using the my apps section. I'm stock rooted cwm touch recovery. I've cleared market data and wiped cache several times. Any help would be great.

Just clear the data for Google Services Framework.
Seems to work since I've done that and wipe Google play data again and rebooted. Thank you so much

I used to get a similar error back in the android market days. Some gentle google searches led me to believe it has to do with downloading too many apps in a short time period.

Np, had the same problem but it would happen with every download.
Interesting pwhoeler, I wonder if its too many in a short period of time, or too many at the same time (Or both) - may have to play with it.

Had this same issue.
For folks new to this Google Services Framework can be found: Settings>Application Manager>"ALL" Tab">Google Services Framework>Clear Data
Yea. It had nothing to do with downloading to many apps. Once I cleared the Google services data and market data again it was fine after aafter a reboot

This question has nothing to do with Galaxy S2. If you want to ask questions regarding an app do it in the appropriate section.
i use Facebook on Google Chrome.. therefore on background process plus battery saver and lag free..

Duno know if it'll make a difference but the fb app just been updated and it now uses native android code rather than HTML 5
It is a battery drainer, to a point. I can get a good two hours continuous use of it. Also, the update has made it much faster and a lot smoother. Battery life is a bit better too.

Setting it to not check for notifications every few minutes always helps too.
I Hate Facebook app
Hello,
the Facebook application is an accu killer.
It drains your batterylife crazy.
Use facebook with your Browser :good:
I just set it not to update on its own, problem solved.
What other gapps can you use for version 2.9 liquidsmooth for the Verizon S3 I don't like the 4.2.2 because they don't come with nothing, I mean they come with Apollo and DSP manager but they don't come with gmail or maps or none of those Google apps... I'm pretty sure I downloaded the right gapps from goo too because it said "4.2.2 gapps" and "20130301" or something like that

just download the missing apps from the store and save yourself the trouble.
not sure how gapp compatibility works but i bet most are fine to run.

Yea that's what I kinda been doing but still gapps are gapps right and if gapps don't come with gapps then that's not right

Aside from inverts, why do you want all the non included stuff in the gapps package? If it were up to me, gapps would only have 1 app... The playstore. I prefer all my apps to be user apps so they can be backed up and restored easily. System apps have to be set up again on each flash unless you manually restore data to the system app, which is generally a bad idea.

True true, but there are some system apps that needs some of the apps , just an example the camera uses voice search and the maps app for some features and if you don't have that than the camera force closes... I know that you can download all of those apps from the play store but still, the gapp package should require all of those apps

yea, you can "say cheese" and it will take a picture using voice search, also you can check the location where you took a picture and that uses the google map app

As with some of you, I do not like the 7.x version of Google Maps. So, I am using a 6.x version of Maps. Using Titanium Backup, I "detached" the Maps app from Market, so when I do a bulk or auto update, the Maps app is not updated. About 1-2 days after I detach Maps from market, using Titanium Backup, I notice that the Maps app shows up again in Market and shows needing to be updated. This has happened several times in the past few weeks.
Not sure what or if I am doing anything wrong.
How can I permanently detach an app from showing up in Market?
What could be causing the app to show up in Market after being detached using Titanium Backup?

I've been experiencing the same thing with the most recent titanium and play store - apps will detach for a day or two but they will still have updates in the "my apps" section.
Interestingly enough, when I get notifications for updates it doesn't mention the detached apps. Haven't figured out a fix yet...

I have the same issues with it re attaching itself to the market. I haven't yet found a solution. I looked at rom toolbox pro and that doesn't seem to have that same option

Why not just turn off notifications and auto-updating in the Play Store, rather than trying to detach all your apps? I haven't quite found a time when detaching from the store is a benefit, other than if you share apps with people.

I never auto update for example, for a while I didn't want to update Google Wallet because you had to change your build.prop back and you could screw it up if you had it working. I like getting notified when updates are available for all my other apps, and just hitting "update all" in the Play Store when I have some time to let it update. Unfortunately, since I couldn't detach Wallet, it would always try to update with the rest of my apps whenever I hit "update all". Detaching it from the market would be perfect in this situation

So with App Ops I turned "location" and "keep awake" for Google play services using "App Ops 4.3/4.4 KitKat" by Color Tiger and my usage went from 10-20% depending on my on screen time to 3% without anything crashing so hopefully that'll help others out. Trying it on my nexus 7 2013 too.
If anyone knows why location or keep awake is necessary please let me know.
Are other apps that require or use location still working (and have location)? I believe Google Play Services is the api other apps go through to obtain location. I was going to try this myself also but was afraid of breaking other apps.

I haven't noticed anything not updating. EWeather, google now, and my other services are still doing great.
Do you still have push notifications (for hangouts or whats app or facebook messenger) when you turn of keep awake ?
