Turn off backup data and location services does it. . . .they need to pull their bloody fingers out on this one.

My backup data and location services are on and since I did what I said a couple of posts ago my battery is the same as it was before I upgraded to KitKat. Before I did it I struggled to get half a day, with Google play services being the biggest offender in the battery usage chart, it now doesn't even appear in the top 6 drainers.

My battery life is shocking since kit kat. I can't even get half a day. I bought a new battery and that made no difference. Thinking of trying a custom rom to see if that helps.
