Google play services, Android system and Phone Idle draining battery

[Alanslade]

Good morning. 

I received last week the Nougat update,and I noticed that my phone is being kept awake by this 3 processes.

At 12:56 PM I have only 35 minutes of screen on and I'm already at 78% of battery.

- I'm at work and I don't have wifi,

- I unplugged the phone 5:30 hours ago.

Hope you can help me with a solution

since your phone is recently upgraded, it might take a while to finish up backgound processes (caches, index etc) but since you said it was already a week, try to see if this occurs when you are on safe mode, charge your device to at least 90% to reset the battery information, lets see if it still is draining battery .

So should I stay an entire day in safe mode?

What should I look for during this day?

you can do both,

charge the battery to full.

day 1: use the phone normally as you would.

day 2: boot to safe mode, although you can not use 3rd party apps, try to use the phone as normally as possible,

take screenshots of your battery graph,

I booted the phone in safe mode. 

After 1:30 hour the phone wa already at 93% with a 25% of Google Play Services usage.

In this time, I used the phone only to check an email and wrote some messages, with a total screen time of perhaps 15 minutes.

The rest was Anroid System. Now I booted normally, but sadly the statistics disappeared. But trust me, even in safe mode, in another three hours my phone would have been at 75% as usually

Sadly this problem is still here.

I have phone idle issue too after nougat update. Before it i can take 6,5 h sot and now i have 52% of battery and nearly 2 h sot. Phone idle consupting is 287 mAh in 18 hours. Something is maybe going bad with this update because xz users have this issue too. I will pray for the fix

Do you still have the problem?

I think I'm going to sell this phone. Everyday at 17:00 I have only 35% of battery left with 2 hours of sot or less. I'm hating this phone as much as I loved my previous Z3 Compact.
