Hi! I'm getting more than 40% on average of battery usage for Google Play Store daily. It's running in the background for almost the entire day.
Is this normal?
If not, how do I fix it.
I have my gps, wifi, Bluetooth all turn off.
Thanks!

Found the solution. Just clear all cache & data for both Google Play Store & Service Framework. Now my battery life is awesome!

Hey, how did you manage to clear the service framework cache? For me I can't find it in the apps overview, obly Google Play Store is there :/
Install this buddy :

So I have this issue. I'm completely against Google Play Services, the massive battery drain on my device should be enough of an excuse to not have it installed. It's been constantly badgering me recently about how Google Maps won't run without Google Play Services installed. Now let me say this, I don't use to many Google apps aside from Gmail. Google Maps rarely comes in handy for me, and I normally just end up looking up destinations on my browser. Will deleting Google Maps from my phone fix this problem? (And yes, my phone is rooted)
You could try Greenify!
Aaand if you want to remove the apps, you'll probably need ''Link2SD'' for that.
Also Link2SD can freeze the apps!
Or use app quarantine from play store to freeze Google play services

Ok with play services, and the play store running my nexus 4 hits 116 degrees Fahrenheit. I uninstalled play services, and installed a play services blocker so it couldn't be force loaded onto my phone. But I still had the Problem cuz the play store tries to re-install it in the background. So if I freeze the play store, everything is fine. Is there a different way to go about this so I don't have to freeze anything, and have to unfreeze the play store everytime I want to use it? Such as through the terminal, etc? Thanks.

Go to option the setting and apps manager. Highlight to the playstore and try uninstal updates. But before, make sure the clear data and clear cache button is appearing. Click them first before uninstalling update
Same how to the google service.
Reeboot
Might it help..
If no change. Maybe i will give you an egg and cook on that heat.

There is no change, I've already tries that. I used lucky patcher to keep google play from updating past 3.10.

No any option. Except you flash to custom rom and get new fresh gapps (playstore included)

Location services
Disallow Google from tracking your location and turn off GPS when you don't need it.
I've found that when google location services were running, any time I opened a google app it would get hot, as it was activating the GPS on my tablet.

So what do you think would work better, using the privacy guard feature for all the GApps, or I could use lucky patcher and disable all the location permissions?
I know lucky patcher is warez, but I'm not using it for bad intentions.

Not familiar with lucky patcher. I just turned off sync with all google apps except G+ and Gmail, and unchecked the option to allow it to track my location in the account settings. Then I turned off GPS. I have limited use for GPS, so only keep it on when I need to use it.
Lucky patcher is an app that is considered a "ware" on XDA because of some of some of the things it can do. But it installs a modified play store of any version that does not auto update itself in the background, I use play store 3.10. Every google app on my phone is frozen. And it's still overheating when I unfreeze the play store, because it's trying time re install google play services. I have a google services blocker app that had the same signature as the real google play services. So when I unfreeze the play store, it repeatedly tries to install the real one, but can't, which causes it to over heat. I'd like to know if there is a way to stop this??

Both my fiance and i have n5s but I noticed on her battery chart her says Google services while mine says Google play services. Both have different icons. I checked both our version numbers are the same for Google play services.
Anyone seen this before? Also she gets kick ass battery right out of the box while I struggle and tweak to get similar battery life.

Now that you mentioned this I have seen both icons. Battery life is fine and originally I thought your phone had the older icon until I went into mine this morning and I see the same one you have. I swear the last time I checked this (a week or so ago) it was the new style icon??? I did just unroot/relock the phone for a possible RMA yesterday...I wouldn't think that had anything to do with it though....

At first I thought it was because I had Google now on but even I turned mine off it disappeared from the battery chart but eventually came back with the Google play services icon.
Strange indeed.

If I remember right, these are separate services. Google Play services has to do with Google Play, meaning checking for app updates, activity in the Google Play app itself, etc. Google Services deals with the "Google Services Framework" service, which includes Gmail, Hangouts, etc.
Of course, Google changes things all the time, so who knows.

i clicked on each one. both listed the same services underneath it
GOOGLE CONTACTS SYNC
GOOGLE BACKUP TRANSPORT
GOOGLE SERVICES FRAMEWORK
GOOGLE PLAY SERVICES
GOOGLE ACCOUNT MANAGER
Oh... that is weird then. Maybe some services trigger one or the other term in the battery meter, and it simply depends which one spoke up first (or last). Sounds like Google is merging everything into Play services, and simply haven't updated all the other services yet.
I'm on 33R and already reinstalled play store. This didn't work, so I cleared data and cache of google play services, downloads, download manager and google play. But I still can't use PlayStore
If you know how to fix this without factory resetting my phone, thanks!

Set your date and time settings to manual. Set it based off your computer. if its the same make it a minute faster. stop play store. restart it. boom.

Just clear cache of Google Play Store (not services) again in settings, apps.
Happens to allot of users quite often, including me.
If that doesn't work, you might want to flash Gapps again.

This is a bit old, but it just randomly happened to me, too. Google Play Services stopped and whenever I'd reboot the phone it would stop as soon as the phone fully booted up again. I got in to clear the cache for both google play services and store and then rebooted once more and everything is working now.

If it doesnt drain battery, it isn't Google Play Services.
Also, it is very advisable to stick to the one pre-installed on your phone. The ones you downloaded may not be suitable, or might been tampered with.
If you do not intend to use any google services, then just uninstall "updates" then disable it. viola power drain plugged. But be warned, you WILL get loads of FCs on apps or just by doing nothing. many many many apps / phone functions rely on Google Play Services.
having said all those, do you even know what google play services is? it drains battery for a good reason, because it is running many things in the background.
Google play services is involved in almost everything you do with your phone, from dialing numbers to sms to location services etc..
Also, when you say you have been downloading and installing different versions of Google play services, be warned, using the wrong version will cause a bigger drain on your phone battery.
thanks alot, i know what it is but i deleted the pre installed version on my phone (le max 2)...guess i will have to re install my OS then....sad and annoying
