[Nexus 6  General] stas333:
I see, no issues so far
[Nexus 6  General] leap_ahead:
U can disable Gms Core Stats Service and Device Connecrion Brokerer without any problem for 12 hour
[Nexus 6  General] Damon13:
Are you currently using Google Launcher? I thought that if you disable GMS stats Service than locations and other Google related stuff wouldn't work (weather, maps) or it causes massive battery drain. Thanks in advanced
[Nexus 6  General] leap_ahead:
I use google launcher ,and I don't have any battery drain

u can explain me what gms core stats do ?
[Nexus 6  General] Damon13:
Since I updated to the new google play services I noticed the presence of GMS Core Stats. I did some reading but what I found was lacking, I feel That GMS deals with the core apps that make google such as youTube, maps and whatever Google related.
[Nexus 6  General] leap_ahead:
yes me too I cant find anything ...

I disable because I am user like AOSP rom to use internet,fb that all..i don't need other google internet apps...
[Nexus 6  General] Damon13:
I am on Clean Rom for the time being which is close to stock. I replaced most of the Google core apps with apps from the Play Store since I feel that they do a better job. Thanks for being brave and disabling it, I will give it a try and report back.
[Nexus 6  General] stas333:
Gms Core Stats Service does have something to do with core google apps. For some disabling this will not cause any issues because they don't use many or any google apps. For others disabling this will cause errors. I still would not recommend disabling it because most of us still use many google apps. If I find more info regarding this service, then I may recommend disabling it. So far there is not enough info out there to make decisions.
[Nexus 6  General] leap_ahead:
I use

*google search

*google calendar

*google now

without any problem
[Nexus 6  General] leap_ahead:
Any news?
[Nexus 6  General] stas333:
On what?
[Nexus 6  General] leap_ahead:
for Gms Core Stats
[Nexus 6  General] stas333:
haven't had a chance to play with it
[Nexus 6  General] Damon13:
I have disable GMS Core stats for a day and haven't seen any issues so far, It's only been 12 hours. Google search got updated last night so I am going to test a few things to see whether or not GMS has any impact at all.
[Nexus 6  General] leap_ahead:
U can check deep sleep pls?
[Nexus 6  General] Damon13:
Yesterday and part of today I used my phone moderately and wakelock detector stated that my phone was 4% awake and 96% in deep sleep. Also under setting in battery I pressed on the battery graph to check awake and there was barely any green so I guess it corroborates with wakelock detector. I am currently using Code Blue and battery life and smoothness have been great.
[Nexus 6  General] leap_ahead:
I do this : disable gms , reboot. Check deep sleep with cpu spy no deep sleep.

Enable gms ,reboot ,check deep sleep and now is sleep .

So check.it careful
[Nexus 6  General] stas333:
after reboot give it some time before chcking for deep sleep. I would let it boot up, wait 5 minutes, then use the phone another 10 minutes and then check for deep sleep.
[Nexus 6  General] Damon13:
I will check but I don't use google calendar so that might be why? i have disable it and reboot it and so far i advent encounter any battery drains. i will keep my eye tho when I start using google search a bit more.

---------- Post added at 04:55 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:53 PM ----------

I def agree with your statement since android usually takes a little while before setting in and going into deep sleep.
[Nexus 6  General] leap_ahead:
Guys for me i see deep sleep with enable gms,after reboot

If i disable and reboot i dont get deep sleep

I test it 3 times now

So for me some app for gms not let my device to deep sleep
[Nexus 6  General] Damon13:
I will def check today and will report if I have deep sleep or not, I think it might be Google calendar since it might be dependent on GMC, since I don't use Google calendar I might not be encountering it. Anyway I will let you know later.
[Nexus 6  General] stas333:
then dont disable it.
[Nexus 6  General] stas333:
it is not calendar related. i disabled the GMC this morning. been a few hours now. Phone goes into deep sleep.`
[Nexus 6  General] Damon13:
Ok, If you are using Google launcher can you please check if the weather gets updated wherever you go? Mine seems to update to the place that I am currently in, but then sometimes it only shows my town. Thanks In advanced
[Nexus 6  General] stas333:
i do use the google launcher but i use weather and clock android widget. If i have my location enabled, then it picks it wherever im at.

what weather are you talking about?
[Nexus 6  General] Damon13:
I am referring to the one that comes with Google search app, it's located as the left screen page from the home screen. It pretty much updates me with soccer games and all the things that are of my interest. Thanks
[Nexus 6  General] stas333:
i have no idea what that is. i do not have that on my home screen. I am assuming its the google now cards?
[Nexus 6  General] Damon13:
yup thats the one, I am just going to keep an eye on it.
[Nexus 6  General] stas333:
I dont use google now simply because it uses up a lot of battery
[Nexus 6  General] Damon13:
yea I am starting to realize that, Which weather widget do you use? I am going to turn google cards off
[Nexus 6  General] stas333:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.devexpert.weather&hl=en 5x2 or 5x3
[Nexus 6  General] leap_ahead:
U do reboot? Check with cpu spy app

Again for me deep sleep not working after reboot with gms disable
[Nexus 6  General] verynuclear:
Thanks for this guide

It is great and no error message so far

HTC M8 lollipop viper rom
[Nexus 6  General] Damon13:
Hey leap_ahead I have disable GMC core stats ( perform a reboot) and so far my phone has been sleeping, no issues whatsoever. My phone's been up for close to 20 hours and I checked with CPU spy and wakelock detector. I am on Puritan ROM with Code Blue.
[Nexus 6  General] leap_ahead:
ok my friend maybe is the rom the problem ..I use S4 i9505 and Google play Edition Rom
[Nexus 6  General] stas333:
After some testing, my battery life is better with GMC enabled.
[Nexus 6  General] Damon13:
Was it by much? I have it disable but i have not noticed any battery improvement or loss. Thanks in advanced.

[Nexus 6  General] frigidazzi:
Any ideas why when I disable wearableservice I get a Google play music error? I can reproduce it 100 percent of the time by disabling it then playing music for a second. Then fix it by enabling it? I don't have wearable app or any thing wearable synched to phone. Plus this service seems like it's always running.
[Nexus 6  General] stas333:
what app are you using to play music?
[Nexus 6  General] frigidazzi:
Google play music
[Nexus 6  General] stas333:
That could be why. I have no issues playing music on Tunein and Pandora.
[Nexus 6  General] frigidazzi:
The music still plays, but I get the notification pop constantly. Even if in not playing music. I just don't understand it has to do with wearables /shrug
[Nexus 6  General] stas333:
I wish i could help, but google play services is very complicated and most wont touch it all. That is why i am being conservative here and not disabling everything. Of course my setup may not work well for others that use many google apps, like yourself.

In your case, I would just enable the option and leave it as is.
[Nexus 6  General] Amos91:
I get it too with play music. Took a while to find it was the wearable service. My guess is that the service is used to mirror music to a smart watch etc. As a result, if switched off it causes an error in play music.
[Nexus 6  General] frigidazzi:
I didn't really think I would find a fix, but more or less just wanted to make sure it wasn't just me having this. The guy below looks to have it to. Oh well. Win some lose some. Thanks for the help.
[Nexus 6  General] stas333:
are you using google music app also?

Im thinking you are on the right path, but maybe music can be controlled by a wearable device, a watch, to fast forward or pause music or whatever.

You guys can try opening the music app services via the 3C toolbox and disabling anything wearable in it. Maybe that will solve the popup.
[Nexus 6  General] Amos91:
Yep only with the play music app. Poweramp etc is fine.

It pops up pretty much instantaneously after launching.
[Nexus 6  General] stas333:
I just quickly glanced at google play music services and instantly found a couple of wearable services. Try disabling them one by one and then see how things turn out
[Nexus 6  General] leap_ahead:
[MENTION=815654]stas333[/MENTION] so u enable GMS CORE STATS ?
[Nexus 6  General] stas333:
Yes
[Nexus 6  General] leap_ahead:
I get update and now I see proximity setting injector service ..anyone know what is this ? [MENTION=815654]stas333[/MENTION]
[Nexus 6  General] leap_ahead:
also config Fetch service is running !! anyone ?
[Nexus 6  General] stas333:
give me a few days to check it out. I just installed 5.1 version I so now im just trying to setup my phone to how it was before the update.
[Nexus 6  General] bill3508:
I always disable brokered fitness service, wearable service, google analytics, and gmsinternal analytics. I have no errors but I obviously don't run a wearable.

This is all I ever have running but this is an m8. N6 here tomorrow.
[Nexus 6  General] stas333:
OP updated
[Nexus 6  General] real_pac:
I dont get it why some user dont use google or xda to find solutions.

Thanks for these awesome guide. He did make several tests and invested lot of time to find out what could be deactivated.

So if you dont know what you are doing´then stop these things.

If google play games doesnt work, you have to enable the services again. On screenshots its disabeled.

gamesAndroidService

gamesAsync

gamesSigninIntentservice

etc.

My opinion use myandroidtoolbox pro there are much more stuff to optimize.

You dont have to disable everything which makes your phone unusable otherwise work with amplify may for location services or others.

regards
[Nexus 6  General] stas333:
Thanks. I agree, people need to think before making changes. I think i have mentioned the same thing before.
[Nexus 6  General] real_pac:
That's always the same. But don't think of you did a great job!
[Nexus 6  General] frigidazzi:
Has anyone noticed a difference in the last couple weeks (possible with version bump to gps) with Google Search (Now) showing a significant raise in NlpCollectorWakeLock? I no longer show this wake lock in GPS and it shows up on search now. Except in 6 hours it used like 30 minutes a wake locks alone. Granted I was moving the whole time, but I doubt recall it ever being that bad before was it?
[Nexus 6  General] real_pac:
I've heard about a included new fix in Google services may for now the problem is solved by tasking, updated rom or disabling services

regards
[Nexus 6  General] Solace50:
How did you manage to disable com.google.android.gms.subscribedfeeds.SyncService? That specific service seems to re-enable itself consistently, its related to the hidden Push Notifications which you can see with greenify under account settings. I disabled every other except that specific one.
[Nexus 6  General] stas333:
Didn’t realize that it was enabling itself. Give me a few days to look at it
[Nexus 6  General] Solace50:
yea also according to amplyfy there's a few services that still get triggered despite being disabled i tried disabling the two common playstore alarms daily hygenie and contentsync services and bbs still reports them being called on. I guess for those there is some corresponding receivers doing that somewhere.
[Nexus 6  General] stas333:
I unchecked those services in activities and receivers, so far they don't re enable on their own.
[Nexus 6  General] Solace50:
they never were re-enabled but they still were called and running at some point according to amplify/bbs which was weird. Ill check the receivers that correspond to the two services later. Only the Push notification and location hidden syncs would re-enable themselves if disabled, disabling the location service solved one portion leaving the push service that just doeskin want to die.
[Nexus 6  General] wrongway213:
I see you've chosen to leave ConfigFetchService enabled on the updated list? I've always disabled that service, and normally it's the first service I see recommended to disable in these sort of guides. Mind sharing what negatives you observed disabling it?

Edit: same question for UserPresenceService as well.
[Nexus 6  General] stas333:
back with the G3, the ConfigFetchService caused some issue so ever since i have not disabled it. ill give it a try again, hopefully there wont be any problems.

Honestly, i have no idea what this service does "UserPresenceService", but ill look into it. Thanks
[Nexus 6  General] wrongway213:
Awesome, you've done a great job testing thus far - I'll be curious to see what you find if you get a chance to poke around at those two as they are known (or at least have been in the past) for serious battery drain. Thanks for the guide, the very prompt reply and for looking into it!
[Nexus 6  General] stas333:
i guess another reason i did not disable them is because not once have i seen those 2 causing any drain, well, at least for me on the N6.

Thanks.
[Nexus 6  General] stas333:
Updated 1st post. Please read it before modifying Google play services.

As a reminder, some of the services can still run after disabling them and even cause a large amount of wakelocks. To solve this, please disable the corresponding tasks in Activities, Providers, and Receivers. For example: disabling update.SystemUpdateService in the Services tab will not disable the service completely, so you must navigate to Receivers tab and disable everything that is related to it there.
[Nexus 6  General] JokerAce:

I use 3C cause its with the order you have them....but now every app with IAP don't work can't buy anything and some apps like tinder ;) ;P crashing at start!!!any help?

Edit for some strange think it was the disabled billing services inside google play store....

Any thoughts on how to reduse the drain from Android System??
[Nexus 6  General] stas333:
i had tinder issues on lg g3 also. dont have the app anymore.

what is it from Android system that causes the drain?
[Nexus 6  General] pikachukaki:
wifioffdelaynotused...android system is always first with gsam but i really can't determinate other wakelocks or alarms from it...some wakelocks working for 10secs but they have 200++ wakelocks...

also now im seeing copresGcore_eventLoop wakelock for 36mins and the phone is unplugged for 54mins...
[Nexus 6  General] frigidazzi:
I got the gcorepres one and fixed it by enabling one of the android location ones near the bottom. The last 3 words say do not use strangely enough.
[Nexus 6  General] leap_ahead:
i see you disable GMS CORE STATS and CONFIG FETCH SERVICE on new one !

so its ok ?
[Nexus 6  General] stas333:
Weird. I do not have those issues at all. My android service doesn't show it. Did you check the other 3 locations, like receivers, and disable location reporting there?

Now WiFi, that is on the user part. Try turning it completely off when not in use.
[Nexus 6  General] stas333:
So far it is OK. I did disable gms services in the other 3 locations also.
[Nexus 6  General] pikachukaki:
Can someone explain to me what is worst....the wakelock/alarm duration or the count...cause i have some wakelocks specially from android system that are -1" but their count is 50++

same all ok here !!

7.3 update
[Nexus 6  General] iruiz2:
Google Music gives an error after disabling all these services. It works, though.

Any idea which disabled service is the culprit for this?
[Nexus 6  General] stas333:
look through the thread. someone had the same issue with google music.
[Nexus 6  General] iruiz2:
Cerberus doesn't work, probably because it uses some of the disabled services. Here's a screenshot:

Nobody in this thread uses it? Will investigate, see if I discover which service it is...
[Nexus 6  General] stas333:
just updated to 7.3. Time to see what hey added and what can be disabled.
[Nexus 6  General] JoshuaOrphir:
I think you guys dont know about Francisco Franco's Servicely. Its a great and simple app in material design. I highly recommend it.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.franco.servicely
[Nexus 6  General] stas333:
I have seen the app. It seems good but I still like to use 3c since it has much more features other than disabling services.
[Nexus 6  General] leap_ahead:
I use disable service
[Nexus 6  General] bflmpsvz:
U write I do on own risk. What's the risk if list is claimed to be safe?

Also what's the difference beween disabling in 3C/Events, 3C/Processes, blocking the service by Amplify and disabling the service by DisableService.

Also I find disabling Checkin evrywhere causing Play Store error RPC:S-7:AES-7 on update

Is this better than 3C?
[Nexus 6  General] leap_ahead:
Disable service app is easy
[Nexus 6  General] stas333:
Pretty sure my list doesn't include checkin service.

The risk is that you can disable a service that is being used by one or more of your apps, such as disabling wearable services while using android watch will cause problems.
[Nexus 6  General] bflmpsvz:
So Checkin is definitely not safe to block.

What I've blocked (Services+Receivers+Providers+Activities)

ads.*

backup.*

feedback.*

fitness.*

games.*

kids.*

people.pub.PeopleSyncRawContactsService

people.sync.*

plus.*

wearable.*

These sevices dependng on Google account are working (synced)

- Google Play

- Google Keep

- Youtube

- Pushbullet

those not working (not synced)

- NE Push

What about

analytics.*

feedback.*

Is safe to disable without any side effects?
[Nexus 6  General] stas333:
Did you look at the op?
[Nexus 6  General] bflmpsvz:
So it looks I have disabled only subset of your services tho some apps (NE Push) don't work. Any idea what can block syncing.

Also is it useful block these also under Providers, Acivities and Receivers?

Dunno exactly the difference among these.
[Nexus 6  General] stas333:
Note everything push?

the answer to your 2nd question once again lies in the op.
[Nexus 6  General] bflmpsvz:
Oh got it, thanks.

Note Everything Push not autosynced. Can U test if it works with your disabled services?
[Nexus 6  General] stas333:
i dont use such apps, so its hard for me to test them.

This is what i would do in your place. I would clear play services data, uninstall updates and reboot the phone. this will return play services to original setup. Once it updates again, test to make sure all apps are working. then a few services at a time, start disabling and testing your apps to see which service causes it not to work. dont forget to reboot after disabling services and testing the apps. This will take a bit of time but it is am easy way to see which you should not disable. once you go through all the services and disable them, then you can move on to Providers, Activities and Receivers.
[Nexus 6  General] bflmpsvz:
The app's support says

So is some of Ur disabled services breaking GTalk(Hangouts) functionality?

Note I don't use Hangouts self.
[Nexus 6  General] stas333:
yes, some of the disabled services break gtalk. dont disable anything with GCM, GMS, and gtalk.

[MENTION=815654]stas333[/MENTION] I wanna thank you for such a great thread, you have no idea how this helped me on my Note 4 after lollipop update, its been really great and ive been recommending this thread as well. I have a request or question, can you share any other apps that u had disable such services??? for example, Facebook. Also I have this problems as a lot of people have reported after using an app for 10 to 20 min but the Total Connection Time is by hours, like after shutting down the app it keeps searching for network, do you have any idea about what services apps uses to keep searching for internet even after been freeze or shutdown? thanks in advance, cheers:fingers-crossed:
[Nexus 6  General] stas333:
Thank you.

Unfortunately I have stopped using Facebook app a very long time ago due to security and permission reasons. I would suggest just going through all services in the app and see what you think can be disabled. To me, it the little things that count. For example, I have disabled hot word for Google search app so it doesn't keep my phone up. In terms of other apps, you just have to play with it and see what works for you. There is always room for improvement, but that will always depend on the user since we all use different apps.
[Nexus 6  General] yoniinfante:
thank you sir, anything about apps searching for internet connection after been freeze? thanks in advance:fingers-crossed:

GoogleCalendarSyncAdapter

GoogleContactsSyncAdapter

ChromeBookmarksSyncAdapter

?

Also curious why did U not disable ads.jams.NegotiationService. I have it disabled
[Nexus 6  General] stas333:
Do not uninstall any system apps, unless you make a twrp full backup. I don't uninstall them because this can cause issues with other apps and FC.

The reason I did not disable ads.jams is because it was causing google play service FC, same with playstore or play log.vacuum

[Nexus 6  General] Solace50:
any luck with the push subscription service?

also when you speak about disabling certain recievers/other that relate to some services you may want to specify to others as to what those are since some are labeled differently.
[Nexus 6  General] dekraan:
Can you please explain how you use it? I've added play services and google app tot the hit list. Does that mean these get closed every 60sec? Does this help?
[Nexus 6  General] JoshuaOrphir:
Yes I think so...I installed it a few days ago and I added a few apps to the Hitlist and some of the services and I get noticeably better battery life.

I added apps like amazon, ebay, chrome, google+, youtube and soundcloud. These are apps that in my case not relay on push notifications but can wake up the device.
