Google services battery drain? - Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

9 hours of keeping my nexus 5 awake... I was wondering why my nexus 5 was only at 30% at the end of my classes at 6pm! Barely any use besides some texts, some calls, ~60 min of web browsing/reddit
Normally after a full day of the standard light usage I've been getting around 60-70% battery life at the end of my day.
I don't use anything else besides what I mentioned. I'm not sure if its significant or not, but I do use a Nokia wireless charger and didn't reboot my phone this morning. I heard wireless charging causes a wakelock?

[Q] HTC Sensation battery getting better?

Has anyone noticed their stock Sensation battery getting smarter? I was only getting 8ish hours previously (brand new battery/phone) before I'd start getting the first battery warning (15%). I just checked my phone after an extra-long day of work (my usual usage) and was delighted to discover this:

...and still going, but I'm going to juice up.
yeah me too, these batteries dont really shine till after first 4 or 5 charges/full discharges
After a few weeks of drain & charge, it's been holding up very well lately!

Battery reading issue on Skyrocket

Very weird, and this happens all the time, everyday. About once to three times per full charge since i have the phone. I restart the phone for some reason and when i get back, i instantly lose about 5 to 25% of battery.
I'm rooted on stock rom...also i'm guessing this is a calibration issue so i am fully uncharging / fully charging battery tonight to recalibrate it but in the mean time i wanted you guys to confirm if i'm right
Also if this is in fact a calibration issue, does this mean that my phone is discharging faster than it's actually telling me?
Here is a screenie
one big peak loss a few hours ago and a smaller one just now

it was a battery calibration issue

Time for a new battery?

nexus 5 running cata with franco kernel, however when ever I charge it up, it quickly looses 20%. I literally just let the phone sit there. Time for a new battery?
I tried the wifi leaking bug, by turning off scanning already.

Same problem with stock rom and ElementalX kernel. It loses battery at a shocking pace, even when idling and screen off. With screen on and on 4G I roughly lose 1% per minute. Phone is basically unusable. Always carrying a 10k mAh power bank at all times.
Might be unrelated but I had my screen replaced (in China). Since then I feel the battery life has deteriorated substantially.

High overnight battery drain

Losing more than 15% overnight despite having WiFI, BT, AOD turned off. It's been happening since first week of December. I ignored it at first as it wasn't that frequent and most of the time I didn't lose more than 5% overnight but these days it's just frequent although I tried factory reset, restricting apps and more but still half of the time I do lose lot of juice overnight.
I've attached screenshots of Better Battery Stats, help me figure out what's wrong ?

The "android" waking up your phone all the time seems like an obvious culprit, but that's probably just "anything that's part of the system"... Can you get more detail on that?

Battery charges up to 80%

Sometimes my battery stops charging after reaching 80% what could this be due to?
Even when the phone is charged to 100%, the battery lasts 5h sot max

Android 12 has an option to stop charging at something around 85%... (to protect the battery life)... did you perhaps set that option?
