Each time I think I've arrived at a set of apps with low battery consumption, rapid battery drain suddenly sets in some time later! I've reported Google Calendar's apparently high battery consumption to Google. (This happens even when I don't open the app!) I might have to cull most of my apps or even do a factory reset soon... | |

| Mar 23, 2016 at 21:48 | comment | added | snark | I've since discovered then when I boot the phone in Safe mode the battery consumption is much lower, suggesting that at least one third-party app is to blame. This is despite Settings > Battery saying Google Calendar is the worst offender. It looks like the third-party app is using Google Play Services. I'm gradually uninstalling blocks of apps and observing the effect on battery life. I'll post a full answer once I've isolated the culprit(s). I use App Detective to list my apps in the order I installed them. | |
