Battery drain over night only

[maxxii]

I check battery usage and after ui-8 update now phone wakes up every hour at night only and google play services sends 1000s of packets and drains battery. 

I have no settings changed but it was no the case before. I never had these apps waking up and sending 1000s of packets and drain the battery. 

My 8 hr night was draining 3% which is now 18% with no use. 

18% actually lasts during the day WITH use for 8 hrs. 

@Samsung should do better on this. I am investigating this and wondering anyone having same situation or what % battery drain they have over night when phone is ideal.

Did you check which apps causing this ? It should saw you exact time, app and what activity it was doing. For me its always google play services app. And some times one ui

What are these 1000 of apps your getting

[maxxii]

Its not app. App is just 1 or 2. But when i check activity it shows app has woke up 3-4 times and over wifi it has transferred 1000s of packets. Packets is network traffics.

Doh sorry I misread my bad only thing I can think of is do you have auto update set up or it could also be the store checking for updates

I used to have it on. Now i put it not to update. From 2 days. But thing is it was always auto update and never drain this before. Just after ui8 update. And checking for updates every 1 hr is crazy in single night.

Magically once i search the issue on google and keep complaining about google play service sending packets over night .. it stops doing it after that. It feels like they are listening to me and to avoid suspicious on their app they stop doing it. ** This is not my 1st experience with this observation** i am observing this from 8 months now. @Samsung @Google #googleissue

I had the same problem until I started wearing a tin foil hat.
