I uninstalled the app "New Releases for Netflix" after I saw it was taking up 10% of my battery. However, I still see a process "com.netflix.new.instant.watch.releases" taking up 10% of battery usage a week after I uninstalled. When I tried to see whether there was any contact information, I saw that the app had been removed from Play Store. Does anyone know what's going on with this? I would rather not need to wipe my phone.

Have you rebooted the phone since uninstalling? Uninstalling will keep it from being loaded again, but won't remove a copy that's in RAM, I don't think.
