Google services. What is up with it?

I had this happen to me one day. Google Search kept my phone awake all day and drained my battery.
Its a known issue on googles end.

To fix Google search go to Google Search app information and clear the data this also clears your launcher data so you will have to re setup your launcher shortcut and widget's.

A couple days ago I checked my data usage and Google services alone totaled to ~12gb for a 10 day span of time. I decided to try and wipe/reflash (I'm running black bean v6) but now it's been 14 hours since i reflashed and I'm already back up to 377mb. I keep my data off unless I'm using it and I have all my Google sync turned off. Any ideas?

Potentially google now? Other than that I am not sure why that would happen

Do you sync photos? Perhaps instant upload or picasa albums?
Sent from my MB865 using xda premium
I use Now and it doesn't use anything like that.
If I look at even one whole month of data usage history Google Services has only used about 5Mb - and that's cellular and wifi combined.
Do you stream media or anything ? It seems like some kind of a mistake or error to me, but maybe not.
I have Google using crazy amounts of data too. I think it has something do with Google Backup. You could try Backup off from Settings>Backup and Reset
I don't know if that solves the problem buts it's worth a shot I guess...

That's the weird thing I don't have any Google sync no photos nothing even my email is set to manual sync. I keep my data off the majority of the day. I don't use navigation services at all.

How can I figure out what it's sending?
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda app-developers app
i always disabled google access collection of data
Wow, 12 Gbs for sinc only..?!
How many accounts do you have..?
Just one account. Background data is restricted, picasa is disabled, Google backup& sync is turned off

If I set a default share app in another app, like twitter, Chrome will also use that as a default share app, not giving me a choice in the matter. Why this change?
Same issue here, but I haven't even chosen a default share app. I chose to share to gmail in my twitter app and now most apps are sharing automatically to gmail.

I don't have that issue...both of you mentioned twitter, that's probably to blame

It's still doing it even though I cleared defaults. I don't get it.

I'm having this problem too. Seems to be a bug with Android: https://code.google.com/p/android/i...nd&colspec=ID Type Status Owner Summary Stars
Yes, I have to keep clearing app defaults in settings, because chrome is remembering share settings from other apps for some reason and using it for itself, with no choice.
Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk
Same here. Each time I try to share a page with chrome it opens "import to Google drive". The only way I found to get the share choices back is to deactivate Google drive
Sent from my Nexus 5 using xda app-developers app
I'm having the same problem its just copying to clip board not giving me the share via menu at all. Same with the XDA app BTW.

Alright I fixed it. You need to go to Apps I. Settings and go to the 3 dot menu on top right and reset apps preferences like so. Yay!

No offence but you didn't fix anything..you just reset app prefs like most people know. There's still a bug, it just happens again...

That sucks I'm sorry it didn't work for you. Google needs to seed a fix soon too many pot holes in this build for the N5.
Sent from my Nexus 5 using xda app-developers app
Had this problem too but clearing app defaults worked for me. For now anyhow..
Sent from my Nexus 5 using xda app-developers app
Is there a way to set an app as the default option for sharing? I only want to share to Pocket in Chrome and Twitter etc. Is that possible?
Hello can someone please explain to me why backup wake lock is constantly causing my battery to drain and is there anyway to resolve this apart from taking the backup option off as this would delete everything from the Google servers
I found this backup wake lock Usk g better battery stats of that helps
Thanks in advance

The only time I saw this was with the EntriesRefresh googlesearch wakelock.
It doesn't happen anymore, I did 2 things: turn off Google photos auto sync and I let the wifi on all the day (even when I'm not using it)
No more Google wakelocks !

Try using the juice defender
Sent from my Nexus 5 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Have you tried first unselecting all google syncs (mail, calendar, drive, google+, etc...) and then reselecting only those you need? Also try disabling Google backup service for a while..
Yeh I tried u checking the backup box but didn't make any difference I will try juice defender and see how that goes for
Thanks for your replies

Yes, that may be it. The browser keeps locking your location to provide you the best results based on your location... Disable it and see if it helps :good:

Do i have to disable location completely (on battery saving now) or can i disable just dolphin from using it? I tried looking through dolphins settings but couldn't see anything regarding location. I also have wakelocks by the name of audiomix and nlp but going through the forum i see a few people have this so maybe its just a kitkat issue or maybe its normal
Just Google for Franco's Per App Mode app and reduce the hardware resources available to dolphin browser.
Ok so since changing the location settings to battery saving its finally back to normal although i cant figure out how to completely deny the browser location
Sent from my Nexus 5 using xda app-developers app
I have the fku app with per app but tbh i dont want to underclock the browser as the faster the better but it would be pretty cool to disable mpdecision and use intelliplug only on dolphin, dont think this is possible though

No I'm on Cataclysm rom and it's built into the menu on it. But my missus uses one of the app ops apps from the play store on cm11 (4.4.2) on her phone. I can let you know later when she's home if you want. But I assume any should work
Edit - trickster mod (free) has it built in and it definitely works

Npl wakelock is a common one caused by having your location on high accuracy, or a rouge app that's playing up such as the browser could be scanning for your location every 10 seconds etc, thus creating a partial wakelock, audiomix sounds like something to do with audio output
Sent from my GT-P5110 using xda app-developers app
I turned off location on chrome and dolphin using app ops root and the nlp wakelock doesn't seem to be on as much now, one thing though since turning off location access on dolphin it seems to be using more power than the screen again whats up with that?

Your right. On the N5 it doesn't show as an option! Weird! Just try another from the play store?

Have you got any sync settings switched on in the browser that may be causing battery drain? Thats all I can think of would cause the browser to use more than the screen.

I am using a new nexus 5 which I bought recently and I'm having this problem with YouTube app that voice search is not starting a search on it I to manually type words but on Google now and other apps its fine I'm using non rooted stock rom

Voice search isn't working on my YouTube either so you aren't alone. It acts like its listening then does nothing after I speak to it. Probably just the app though because my nexus 5 is a few months old
