"Google Serivces" killing battery

But if you turn this particular blanket setting off, doesn't it mean you won't be able to:1. Get weather updates for your location2. Use maps based on your locationetc.??? Unless that is you simply turn it on only when needed.

I use weather off ZIP instead of GPS so it is not always looking for my location. For MAPS I have a NFC tag in my truck that turns just GPS on when I get in, and when I get out I have another tag that turns it off. Don't need anything knowing my location unless I am trying to get somewhere.

I have juice defender which is why I am shocked this happened. I wish there were a "one stop shop" to see all the individual apps/settings I need to focus on. I'm hunting and pecking here and it still looks high to me but I really need to wait until overnight to get a better sense for what's going on. I think what happened was that when I reset the phone I opted into a bunch of "location" type settings for ALL apps so chrome, music, etc. were all running in the background and doing things I didn't want them to do. Just a hunch...

JD and it's PRO Version create more issues than it was intended to address. IMO

Used on 3 JB 4.1 devices and after 2 months no longer and many little power issues have gone missing!
Was fine on the older devices while running ICS first V. Running On Jellybean ..no so much.

I couldn't agree more re: JD. It can cause some issue and then you don't know where to look.
