Hello, my battery was at 60 percent last night and this morning it is now at 30. I went in and looked at the battery data and Google plus was at the top of the list at 33 percent. Suggestions?

Yes I have auto backup on, but I'm not taking any new pictures in my sleep..

No need to list all your apps when you know Google+ is the culprit

There is an option within settings to sync photos over Wi-Fi only and while on charge, much more efficient unless you really need to backup all the time

Additionally for general gains, you could use another app to turn off data/Wi-Fi or toggle airplane mode overnight, unless you need it syncing while you sleep

Google+ isn't syncing photos because all of my photos are synced.

It was probably syncing something overnight though right? Worth having charging setting anyway

Ironic that an official Google app will have
e such a high wakelock...

Perhaps try something like greenify?

No because I flashed back to stock a couple days ago to reapply mods and haven't taken any pictures yet.. I have greenify so i'll watch my battery level and then use greenify if I need to. Still weird though. I also totally shut off location now (was on battery saving) so I'll see what happens overnight this time.

usual stuff:
hotword detection:eek:n/off?
wifi scanning even when its off:eek:n/off?
rogue app?

higher up you can

install a wakelock detector and check which apps does the "batman"

would have been helpful if you had at least attached the screenshot of the battery stats.

Best hope: Install a wake-lock detector. Check for app.

Google+ will sometimes cause small wakelocks on my phone overnight as well. Although, it doesn't appear as bad as yours. If it doesn't "sync" overnight, I only lose 1-2% that night. If it does sync, it shows that it kept the phone awake for about 10min. But even then, I'll only lose about 5-7% that night (definitely not 33%). I, too, have it back up my pictures over WiFi. This wakelock is random. Sometimes it happens during the day, and sometimes at night. I doesn't really seem to correlate with me taking pictures that day or not.

A genuine query... how much battery does the hotword detection use? Has anyone noticed a difference on/off?

It's only draining when you're at a home screen so while it's not consistent it will decrease SoT slightly. It only saves you from making 1 screen tap on the mic icon so the trade off is questionable.

This time it went from 89 to 49, probably because in the morning I started getting notifications. Anyways Google plus is no longer on the battery list. Attached are screenshots of anything I think might be useful.
