现在我们知道电池耗尽的原因是 Google Play 服务,是(cause of the battery drain is Google Play services)时候看看如何使用下面列出的方法解决问题了。
方法一:清除Google Play服务(Services)缓存(Cache)
您应该练习的第一个也是最重要的方法是清除(clearing the Cache and data)Google Play 服务(Services)的缓存和数据历史记录。缓存(Cache)基本上有助于在本地存储数据,因为手机可以加快加载时间并减少数据使用量。就像每次访问页面时,数据都会自动下载,这是无关紧要和不必要的。这些较旧的数据可能会混在一起,也可能会误入歧途,这可能有点烦人。为了避免这种情况,您应该尝试清除缓存和数据以节省一些电池。
1. 要擦除Google Play 商店(Google Play Store)缓存和数据内存,请单击“ 设置”(Settings) 选项并选择“应用程序和通知(Apps and notifications)”选项。
2. 现在,单击管理应用程序(Manage Applications) 并查找 Google Play(the Google Play) 服务(Services) 选项并点击它。您将看到一个选项列表,包括一个“清除缓存(Clear cache)”按钮,选择它。
如果这不能解决您的电池耗尽问题,请尝试寻求更彻底的解决方案并清除Google Play 服务(Services)数据内存。完成后,您将需要登录到您的Google帐户。

Detect Google Play Services’ Battery Draining
Detecting the sum of Battery that Google Play Services is draining out of your Android phone is very easy. Interestingly, you do not even need to download any third-party app for that. All you need to do is follow these basic steps:
1. Go to the Settings icon of the App Drawer and tap on it.
2. Find Apps & notifications and select it.
3. Now, tap on the Manage Applications button.
4. From the scroll-down list, find the “Google Play Services” option and then click on it.
5. Moving forward, click on the ‘Advanced’ button then take a glance at what percentage is mentioned under the “Battery” section.
It will display the percentage of battery consumption of this particular App since the time the phone was last fully charged. In case, Google Play services are using a large amount of your Battery, say if it is going up to double digits, that can be a little problematic as it is considered to be too high. You will have to act on this issue, and for that, we are here to help with infinite tips and tricks.
Which is a major source of Battery Drainage?
Let me bring a major fact to the table. Google Play Services does not really drain your Android device’s Battery as such. It actually depends on the other apps and features that are constantly communicating with the Google Play Services, such as mobile data, Wi-Fi, Location tracking feature, etc. that run in the background and suck the Battery out of your device.
So once you are clear that it is Google Play Services that is affecting your Battery negatively, try and focus on finding out which apps are exactly the root cause of this critical problem.
For that, there are many apps, such as Greenify and Better Battery Stats, that are available on Google Play Store for free and can help you out in this situation. They will provide you with detailed insight into which apps and processes are the root cause of your Battery running out so fast. After seeing the results, you can accordingly remove those apps by uninstalling them.

Google Play Services Draining Phone’s Battery? Here’s How to Fix it
Now that we know the cause of the battery drain is Google Play services its time to see how to fix the issue with the below-listed methods.
Method 1: Clear Cache of Google Play Services
The first and foremost method that you should practice is clearing the Cache and data history of Google Play Services. Cache basically helps to store data locally because of which the phone can speed up the loading time and cut data usage. It’s like, every time you access a page, the data gets downloaded automatically, which is kind of irrelevant and unnecessary. This older data can lump up, and it can also go astray, which can be a little annoying. To avoid such a situation, you should try clearing cache and data in order to save some battery.
1. To wipe the Google Play Store cache and data memory, click on the Settings option and select the “Apps and notifications” option.
2. Now, click on Manage Applications and look for the Google Play Services option and tap on it. You will see a list of options, including a “Clear cache” button, select it.
If this does not fix your battery drainage issues, try going for a more radical solution and clear the Google Play Services data memory instead. You will be required to log in to your Google account after you are done with it.
Steps to Delete Google Play Store Data:
1. Go to the Settings option and look for the Apps, like in the previous step.
2. Now, click on Manage Apps, and find the Google Play Services app, select it. Finally, rather than pressing “Clear Cache”, click on “Clear Data.”
3. This step will clear the application and make your phone a little less heavy.
4. All you need to do is log in to your Google Account.
Method 2: Turn Off Auto Sync Feature
If by chance, you have more than one Google accounts linked with your Google Play Services app, that could be the reason behind your phone’s battery drain issue. As we know that Google Play Services has to track your location in order to look for new events in your current area, it is unknowingly running in the background constantly, without a break. So basically, that means even more memory is consumed.
But, of course, you can fix this. You simply just have to turn the Auto Sync feature for other accounts off, for example, your Gmail, Cloud Storage, Calendar, other third-party applications, which include Facebook, WhatsApp, Instagram, etc.
In order to turn off the auto-sync Mode, follow these steps:
1. Tap on the ‘Settings’ icon and then scroll down until you find ‘Accounts and Sync’.
2. Then, simply click on each account and check whether the Sync is turned off or on.
3. Supposedly, the account says “Sync on”, then click on the “Account sync” option and go to the app and control all the major syncing options for that specific App.
However, it is not a necessity. If auto-sync is really very crucial for a given app then you can leave it as it is and try turning off auto-sync for the apps, which are a little less important.
Method 3: Fix Sync Errors
Sync errors arise when Google Play Services try to sync data but does not necessarily succeed. Because of these errors, you might have to charge your Android Device. Check whether your contact numbers, calendar, and Gmail account have any major issues. If it is possible, remove any emojis or stickers next to your contact names as Google does not really dig that.
Try removing and re-adding your Google account a shot. Maybe this will fix the errors. Turn off your mobile data and disconnect Wi-Fi for a while, like for 2 or 3 minutes and then turn it back on.
Method 4: Turn Off Location Services for certain apps
Many default and third-party apps require your Location in order to work. And the problem is that they ask for it through the Google Play Services, which later uses the GPS system to collect this data and information. In order to turn off Location for a particular app, follow these simple steps:
1. Go to the Settings option and tap on the Apps section.
2. Tap on the Manage Applications button and then look for the App that is causing this trouble and select it.
3. Now, select the Permissions button and check whether the Location syncing toggle is turned on.
4. If yes, turn it off immediately. This will help in the reduction of battery drainage.
Method 5: Remove and re-add all your Account(s)
Removing the current Google and other application accounts and then adding them back again can also help you overcome this issue. Sometimes syncing and connectivity errors can cause such problems.
1. Tap on the Settings option and then navigate the Accounts and Sync button. Click on it.
2. Now, click on Google. You will be able to see all the accounts you have linked with your Android device.
Note: Make sure you remember the user ID or username and password for each of the accounts that you are planning to remove; otherwise, you won’t be able to log in again.
3. Tap on the account and then select the More button present at the bottom of the screen.
4. Now, tap on Remove account. Repeat the process with the other accounts as well.
5. To remove the Application Accounts, click on the App of which you want to remove the account and then press on More button.
6. Finally, select the Remove Account button, and you are good to go.
7. To add back these accounts, go back to the Settings option and click on Accounts & Sync again.
8. Scroll down the list until you find the Add Account option. Tap on it and follow the further instructions.
Method 6: Update Google Play Services
If you are not using an up to date version of the Google Play Services, this might be the reason behind your problem. Many such issues can be fixed by just updating the App as it fixes the problematic bugs. So, at last, updating the App might be your only option. To update your Google Play Services, follow these steps:
1. Go to the Google Play Store and click on the three lines icon present at the top left corner of the screen.
2. From that, select My apps and games. In the drop-down list, find the Google Play Services app and check whether it has any new updates. If yes, download them and wait for Installation.
If you’re still unable to update Google Play services then it might best to update Google Play Services manually.
Method 7: Update Google Play Services Using Apk Mirror
If the above method didn’t work then you can always update Google Play Services using third-party websites such as APK mirror. Although this method isn’t recommended because third-party websites might contain viruses or malware in the .apk file.
1. Go to your Brower and log on to APKMirror.com.
2. In the search box, type ‘Google Play Service’ and wait for its latest version.
3. If yes, click on the download button and wait until it is done.

1. Navigate the Settings option and then click on Apps and notifications.

3. Once you find it, select it and then tap on ‘Force Stop’.

Method 15: Uninstall Any Battery Optimizers
It is better for your device if you do not install a Third Party Battery Optimizer to save its battery life. These third-party apps do not improve the performance of the device, rather make them worse. Such apps only clear the cache & data history from your device and dismiss the background’s Apps.
So, it is better to use your default Battery Saver rather than investing in an outsider because installing such Apps can be considered as an unnecessary load, which can affect your phone’s battery life negatively.
