Not going into deep sleep. Google Services Drain.

So the first day I had my Nexus 7 I was getting awesome battery life and extremely minimal drain (Like it should) but then I started noticing battery life drop. I've restarted it a couple of times, but Google Services keeps keeping it awake.

I know I can turn location access off, but I shouldn't have to do that. I want to be able to use it the way it is intended.


My Nexus 7 has been running for 14hrs on battery with less than 10 min screen on time, 1hr 15min Google Services, down to 73% battery level.

By comparison My Nexus 4 has been running for 12 hours on battery with 1hr screen on time, 29min Google Services, and a 63% battery level.

Both device comparisons are with wi-fi on (plus data/cell radio on Nexus 4), and all location services on.

How do I fix this without having to shut any settings off, and is this a known issue?
