[Q] Verizon Lollipop update - Battery life has decreased exponentially topic

Good morning Everyone,

I received the OTA update to lollipop on Tuesday night. Since then, I've noted the following:

• Upon successful completion of the update, I was prompted to update google play service. I don't know for sure whether it actually updated but it did take a very long time to do anything. The phone was largely non responsive at this time.


• The phone seems to be a little laggy since the update.


• My battery life has tanked. I used to get close to 36 hours out of the battery. This has since decreased to 6 hours.

I do see another user experienced issues with google play services. I have tried clearing the cache on both the google play store and google play services and rebooted as was suggested in that thread, though I was not prompted to update it. I'm running version 6.5.99 (1642632-438) of the google play service.

The main concern is the lag and the battery life. Does anyone have any ideas as to what might be going on?
