Google Play Services is draining my battery and taking up memory. I just went out for the evening with the battery fully charged at 7:30. I request a Lyft and answered one text message. At 12:30, when I went to request a Lyft home, the battery was at 14%--basically gone in 5 hours. And Google Play Services had taken up about 1 GB of memory. This happens regularly.
Most of the time, Google Play Services is taking up about 35% of the battery.
I've had a factory reset on my phone. I have the "battery saver" for location--no GPS. I've turned off auto-sync. I have Doze installed so apps aren't working when the phone is idle. I clear the memory on Google Play Services regularly (because otherwise there isn't enough memory to run the phone). I don't use my phone for video or music. I've tried turning off the phone and taking out the battery. I have very few apps installed.
Please help. If I can't count on the phone to last me for one evening out, I don't know what to do! (It's a Sprint LG 3 Vigor--and the Sprint technicians are useless.)
