I've tried this and its work for me.

1) Download Xposed installer from google store
2) Download WakeLock Terminator and add module to Xposed
3) Find Google Play Service in Terminator and set filter:

NetworkLocationLocator
NIpCollectorWakeLock
Checkin Service
NIpWakeLock
WakefullIntentService[GCoreUIr-LocationReportingService]

The Xposed installer was removed from the Play store quite a while ago. You need to visit the thread here on XDA to get it - Link

Were you able to get at least a day of battery life for doing that?

Yeah sometimes that sh** google services start to draining battery.

You can try to kill it or restart the phone.

Hi guys, when I acces battery usage Google play service doesn't appear in 4.4.2.
I don't have any draining battery with Google play service and I can use XZ 1-2 days without recharging.
I'm the only one? :)

I don't have this problem. My battery seems to be the same as I had with JB 4.3

No problems here. I killed the Google plus thing, and the Sony social life app and I'm at 75% at 7.5 hours of up time. Phone says I should have another 18 hours to go at my current use rate. Today has been about the same usage as normal. For me the kk battery life is better.

If I say I can use it 1-2 days without recharging this doesn't mean I didn't recharged a little bit when I took the screenshot.
The phone was connected to my pc for 1-2 hours.
The battery can work 1-2 days with 1h calls in a day + 3h music in my headphones + 1h on internet with 4g.
Thanks,

    If anyone is still having battery drain issues i've used the following method from khan663399 which seems to be working for me. Original link here is you want to thank him :D : http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=53030579&postcount=421

    Download AppOpsXposed : http://repo.xposed.info/module/at.jclehner.appopsxposed

    After install go to Settings>App Ops>Location>Google Play Services, Then scroll down to 'keep awake' and deactivate it. (I also did the same for Google Search)

    Unlike other wakelock terminators, this method doesn't cause fc of play services.

    All credits go to khan663399 for this method :good:

    This is because you have disabled location reporting / history, which is and always has been the source of the battery drain since this problem first occurred. Of course you're not seeing drain from Google Play Services any more. I haven't for months with those disabled.

    Guys, I went back yesterday to 10.4.1.B.0.101 Android 4.3 and all my pain has gone, my phone is the same as it was before this 2 months of no sense.
    -No drain of battery even with Google Play Services v5 (and no heating without reason)
    -Much faster, no lags
    -No missing features from 4.4 except sony keyboard and camera apps. ¿Could someone upload?

    I will definitelly skip 10.5.A.0.230 even with a fix for the drain, 101 is so much faster...
