Help High Google Services Battery Drain

Since 5.1.1 has AppOps already embedded, this simply is a shortcut asking permission to reference AppOps.
Cool. I might try it soon.

Please take a look at these screenshots. I don't know which one I should believe, the built-in statistic or GSam Battery Monitor? GSam Battery Monitor seems much more reliable to me...

Yes, are there any more apps like GSam out there I can use?
Some battery savers have them built in. I suggest Du Battery Saver, IO Battery Saver or Go Power Master.


All of those have pro keys I believe are worth it. I own all three. Some work better than others depending on your device and how it interacts with other apps.

Du has more custom manifest lines than most apps. Custom lines are app specific and are deviations from ones recognized by Google.

Hi, try an app called greenify. I too had battery drain problem, now no problem. This app hibernates all background running apps and also let's you define which app you want to run in background. I'm not sure this app requires root or not, but my phone is rooted. You van try other apps which don't require root. Do try and inform how it goes.

I did try Greenify but since Smart Manager in the S5 does the same thing I don't need it anymore.
