Moto G7 problems after update to Android 10.

Should Google Play Services be running 1 hr 48 min on my phone? It has used 9%of my battery. Every once in awhile I see the arrow downloading in the notification area. I don't play games, if that has anything to do with Play Services. Trying to figure out why my battery is draining after Android 10 update.

This can be due to some other app you installed that is utilizing Play Services. It can be hard to pinpoint sometimes. The first thing to do is boot into Safe Mode and see if the problem persists -- if it doesn't, then something you installed is causing the problem. You may have to uninstall apps one by one until it goes away. https://support.motorola.com/us/en/solution/MS135872?linkId=70832214

Also, are you in Ireland? https://www.androidpolice.com/2020/...-and-covid-contract-tracing-app-fix-due-soon/

Not in Ireland. Also wouldn't use that contact tracking app.

Just after updating my Moto g7, my SD card alerted it was corrupted. My camera stopped working. And now it keeps telling me my account doesn't support phone tethering when I try to use the hotspot. My provider says the account is fine and directed me to do a factory reset. I did. Now I have a paperweight. Android 10 is a lemon. Even Windows Vista wasn't this bad.

Welcome to Android Central! SD cards can corrupt at any time -- it's not necessarily due to the Android 10 update. If you formatted your SD card as Internal Storage and the card corrupts, it can cause a lot of the system to crash. Did you remove the card before doing the factory reset? What do you mean that you have a paperweight after the factory reset -- is it stuck on the boot logo?

Android 10 has been great on my Pixel 3 XL. Remember that it's up to the phone manufacturer to tweak the base code so that it works correctly on their phones, so this would be more of a Lenovo issue than a Google issue.
