Google play services bug!

[Kanu]

I read a lot of people's suggestions about joining the beta program of play services. I did that and still nothing has happened. Battery life isn't bad but it drains a bit too fast. I haven't charged it to 100 and drained it completely though. But in day to day usage i have noticed battery has been quite a bit worse since this play service bug. ( Normally i charge it to 80-85% and then plug it in after it's less than 20)

Yeah i uninstalled some third party apps and cleared the cache and data of play services and now the problem is gone.

I think this is definitely a bad actor app doing this. I ended up doing a full reset of my ROG2 over the weekend and did not install some new apps that I had previously installed. Google Play Service went from 35% usage in a day back to 3%.

I don't think this is at all Google Play Service related, but more related to an app thats keeping Google Play Service awake..

Anyways, mine seems fixed. For those with issues, maybe try a full wipe/reset, and run on stock apps for a few days and see what happens. If you're getting more than 3-4% in a days usage, then something is definitely wrong (on stock apps).

For me, the usual apps like Snapseed, Shazam, Speedtest, Minecraft, Instagram, FB and FB Messenger have no issues.

Can you name those apps that you uninstalled?

For me, the apps that could have been causing the bug were
Telegram
XE currency
QR Code Reader
I've reinstalled all of them except these and no issues since
