No.. screen & data connection consume most of the battery. Google service is very optimized for battery use. As long as you have 4G connection enabled, you will empty your battery in hours.

I use GEL with "Ok Google" turning off, does it save battery as stock launcher ? And should i disable Motorola Services to save battery too ? My job requires me to go out for many days so my battery is very important to me. Anyone explain to me please, tks so much.
Maybe you could buy a portable charger. Anyway, i think that is better for battery life not to have too many services

Yes Gel and Motorola Services should consume a portion of your battery, so switching them off might save you some. I've switched off Motorola Services on my device too, not that helpful for me anyway. You can always test the device battery with both the services switched on and then off. To compare if the battery benefits(if there are any) reaped are good enough to keep the services switched off.

Hey all!
Has anyone else been experiencing a much higher battery drain with 4.4.3? It's not only me but a bunch of friends and family with the M8 have been experiencing drains when by the end of the day they would have 50% but now it's getting down to 10% or even lower. For me, it will sit on my desk during class and drain a minimum of 15%. Classes are about an hour and a half.
Any tips? It's getting really hard to keep the phone plugged in.
Install Better Battery Stats app (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1179809) . Let it run for a day and see what's killing your battery. I have a feeling its services within Google Play services. I used "Disable Services" app and "Autorun Manager" app to stops alot of play services from sucking my battery.
I wouldn't say I'm getting significant battery drain going from 1.8 viper Rom 4.4.2 to 2.5 viper 4.4.3 w/ firmware but it is noticeable. Also DS battery saver is good, especially if your in low 4g areas all the time

You seen that google play is killing your battery using the wake lock app? Just wondering or what were you using to see this?
suggestion
After any OTA or official update, its a most perform a factory reset* from Stock recovery.
Follow these steps
So Google Play Serveries suck most of our battery up. I use two apps to stop certain Google play receives from running. From installing the app "Better Battery Stats" (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1179809) you are able to see what wakelocks are draining your phone (Both kernel and partial wakelocks). First app to install is "Disable services." In this app go to Google Play services and disable (some of these are default disabled):
- AnalyticsServices
- GcmServices
- SyncService
- PlayLogBrokerservice
- PackageBroadcastService
- InitialzeInternetService
- UserPresence
- GeofenceProviderService
Now install the app "Autorun Manager." Click on "Advance Mode." Go into settings and make sure "Show system entries" is unchecked. In the advance mode scroll down to "Google Play Services" and disable (some of these are default disabled):
- .gms.update.SystemUpdateService$Reciever
- ..gms.checkin.EventLogService$Reciever
- .gms.CheckinService$TriggerReciever
- .gms.update.SystemUpdateService$Activereciever
- .gms.mdm.recieiver.ActivateDeviceAdminUponUnlockreciever
- .gms.checkin.CheckinService$Reciever
- .gms.icing.service.PowerConnectedReciever
- .gms.mdm.recievers.ConnectivityReciever
- .gms.update.SystemUpdateService$SecretCodeReciever
- .gms.feedback.feedbackConnectivityReciever

-. gms.app.receiver.OneTimeInitializerReciever
From doing this...I have 1% drain from all of Google Play Services. When Google Play services updates from time to time, you might have to go back and disable these receivers. On this phone, I am able to get 6 hours of screen time. This is on about 30% 4G and 70% Wifi on a daily basis. Took me some trial and error to disable these services. My setup makes nothing FC at all! Hope this helps. You will yield amazing battery life!

I installed it and it just showed 2 apps on the screen I assumed those were supposed to be the ones draining my battery one was google play other was my data manager. Since it only showed those two shouldnt those be the ones it chose were draining my power ?
Hello, i Own a mid-range phone.
it is rooted and i am using "Disable Service" app to disable some of Google Services that i don't use to minimize battery drain and RAM usage.
I disabled some services like " Analytic Data, Dispatching Service, GoogleLocationService ".
that led to decrease in RAM usage and better Performance in the overall.
but since then the battery usage show 70% google play services, and 30% Distributed among the others"
with a rate of 1% each 30 min when screen is OFF.
So, i am asking if disabling service can cause more battery drain maybe because a Loop effect where app keep asking for something i disabled then re-ask, re-ask in a infinite loop ? or maybe it's something else ?
Good Day Guys
As you all know, when we turn on the battery saver option, it would be turned off automatically when your device is charging. And we have to turn it on again. How can we just get it on all the time or if there is any alternative to this. Thanks
hebf optimizer
works for that and also can disable google services from running while the screen is off which was a big battery drainer for me.

I have downloaded that. But when I enable Improve battery, it does not turn on battery saver in the settings. Does this means it uses different method of battery saver from the dafault ones?
On stock and android 11 unrooted phone.
Coming from rooted android 10 the battery drain is way higher on android 11
Done all the usual stuff to stop drain and debloated few things but what else can anyone recommend for battery saving
Thanks

Optimise the battery on most apps and not getting some notifications ie Gmail so take it this is one of the side affects
Yep, stuff that runs in the background always eat battery. Especially Google apps.

Goggle play Services, Playstore, Google backup Transport and Framework are prime offenders.
The former two I kept disabled unless I need them. The latter two are package blocked.
Sync is turned off. Gmaps is kept firewall blocked unless needed otherwise it constantly is running in the background.

Optimization can eat battery and cause erratic behavior. Developer options>Standby apps, all buckets should show as active. Otherwise power management is active and it will cause trouble.
Dependencies... disabling some apps can cause seemingly unpredictable consequences and higher battery consumption. Goggle play Services has lots of dependencies but killing it saves battery. Turning off location helps too.
Turn off all carrier, manufacturer and app feedback.
Disable OTA updates; only update if proven to be worthwhile. Most updates harm the usability and provide little improvement. If the phone is running fast, stable and fulfilling its mission leave it be. Most carrier Android phones need to be optimized or they will run like pigs. Updates generally just complicate the optimization process.
Each Android and user are unique requiring different solutions. Play with it.
With Google you're not the customer, you're the product... the less Gookill, the better.

Was looking at this but what do you mean by 'all buckets'?
Some of the apps are on WORKIng_SET /ACTIVE or RARE and a few on FREQUENT
Anything to do on these to save battery
Also I have Dont Keep Activities ticked but even when I close the apps its still running and press clear all

*These are the buckets. Google terminology not mine. More Google bloatware.
If you can't change their run state there then power management is disable... as is best.
Simple close apps when done with them.
If they continue to cause trouble try limiting background battery and/or data usage.
Ditch the really bad actors if can't get them to behave.
Power management apps will cause nothing but trouble and eat battery. Android manages its self well without this junk with well written apps.
