unusual battery drain

[Vlosaloty]

Started late last night I didn't touch my phone for about an hour I finally used it and noticed it dropped 10% of battery just sitting idle. Let it sit for about 15 dropped another 3% more. By this time I had to throw it on the charger. I let it charge for about 10 mins and my battery got up to 28% battery to last me rest of night. The draining continued so I turned it off, turned it back on it still did it. I turned it off again and back on. By this time I lost 12% in probably a half hour. I looked at the stats and it showed that Google play services was using the most battery at like 17%. Is that normal?

So charged it up to 100 and it's been off charger for about 4 hours I've used almost 1 hr of on screen time and I am now sitting at 61%.

Is your cell signal worse than usual?

I would clear cache , then force close it and monitor it after .
Edit: for Google play and Google play services

Eh I would say probably but I'm not 100% sure haven't really paid all that much attention to it til you just said something lol

I cleared cache on every app I could possibly clean last night but I did not force close anything so maybe I'll give that a try


It would not let me force close Google play services or Google play

Try comparing it to when the phone is in a reliably good signal area. Or try turning on Airplane Mode and see if the battery drain stops.

Ok Google play store you can the play service you can't but you can uninstall the update which I would recommend

I stuck it in airplane mode earlier cause I was going to be in a very little to no signal area and I was there for about hour and half and I lost maybe 1%

Your wifi usage is abnormal, along with a couple of others.
1st, forget your wifi from the phone.
Clear the cache partition and reboot the phone. Rediscover and connect with the wifi.
Hope this helps

So I did what you said and so far my phone seems to be back to running like it was before all the issues and maybe even better
