Google play services is eating up my battery

Are you saying the next update to 5.0 it might get fixed?

I have recently noticed that my wifi is chewing up a large portion of my battery. I have always left my wifi on at all times but have started to notice that it is eating up 18-23% of my battery. I could be wrong but I thought this use to be around 3-5% throughout the day. Has anyone else...

Downloaded yesterday. Haven't noticed much with the exception of the dialer

I have run into this issue a few times where I will plug in headphones or connect my bluetooth headphones and the volume is turned all the way down. I go in to the settings for volume and attempt to turn up the volume for media, etc but it won't allow me to turn it up. The only solution has...

Anyone else having an issue with bluetooth audio? My issue is using bluetooth headphones to listen to music and then I get a phone call. After the phone call the bluetooth headphones no longer received audio. I go to "sounds" and see that it is all the way turned down for headphones, etc...

Maybe mine is just acting up but before I put juice defender back on my phone the wifi radio was using about 20%+ of my battery. That was very odd to me because I was use to 5% or less. Do you think my phone needs a reset or something?

Yeah I had that and it really messed up my S3 operation pretty bad. Went to sprint and they said get rid of it and leave the WiFi and Bluetooth active all the time. Did that and they used very little battery. Just wondering why that is so different on the X Sent from my XT1056 using Tapatalk

Ok the Wi-Fi is actually eating the most battery. On the S3 I could leave both on all day and they would only use maybe 4%of the battery Sent from my XT1056 using Tapatalk

I just got the Moto X and have been leaving the Wi-Fi and Bluetooth on all the time as I did with the S3. On the S3 this really consumed very little power, however it is really eating up a decent portion of the battery on the Moto X. Anyone have any idea if this will get better with the X or...

Is there an app that I can download to see what kind of charge (in amps) I am getting from various USB cords and/or chargers? I have a few cheapie micro usb cords and I have a suspicion they are not allowing by phone to charge at full speed.

OK that did it. Don't know why I didn't think if that last night. Thanks Sent from my XT1056 using Tapatalk

OK this is going to be a stupid question but but how do you reset the default gallery after taking photos. I accidentally set mine to Google photos and don't want that. Thanks Sent from my XT1056 using Tapatalk

Ok I think it might be something with overheating the battery. I charged my phone fully with the external charger yesterday and it didn't turn the phone off. I have the issue with it turning off when I am streaming music to a bluetooth speaker.....so do you think the combo of bluetooth...
