Goggle play services causing battery drain

Is this normal i usally get 200 to 400 wake ups a day 🤔😪😫

Are you complaining that it's not wasting enough battery? Looks normal to me. Seems like wake ups in the 100s would be excessive.

No, I'm saying the number of wake-ups is causing my phone to die faster. The only fix is to uninstall the updates, but then after a week it acts up again. Any permanent fix?

Don't know whats causing so many wake ups for you, so don't know if there's a fix. I average about 60 wakeups. Depends whi it's waking up. Is your play services up to date? It doesnt use that much battery. What's the percent it's saying its using?

[SebGsolos]

It's causing a two- to three-hour battery difference, but luckily, uninstalling and reinstalling the update works. Sadly, I don't know what causes it to start acting up.

You have to look at you battery statistics to see how much of the battery its actually using. If it's using more than 1% on a regular basis, thats a problem. Download GoodGuardians/battery tracker and find out what's eating your battery. You could also be overheating, which will also cause drain. So also download the thermal guardian module.
