Many people have been having a problem with the SystemUpdateService Wakelock from Google Play Services on their OnePlus One. On other custom roms people have been able to fix it by disabling Wakeup in Google play services in Privacy Guard. I tried that using appops using Xposed but the wakelock was still there even after disabling Wakeup to Google Play services.

Looking at how CM12 Nightlies fixed the issue I learned how to fix it on Oxygen OS.

First, you need to download Disable Service from the Play Store, it requires root. Then under the System tab you need to go to Google Play Services and enable SystemUpdateService. That will fix your wakelock. You will notice that there is another SystemUpdateService under Google Services Framework, but leave that one disabled.

This is a Temporary Fix. You must enable that service again after a Reboot. OxygenOS disables it by default on boot which causes the wakelock.

Does anyone no now to enable the service on boot with Tasker? I don't know if a terminal command or a script could be used to enable that service.
