Great battery life on thunderbolt

how do you disable the 4g?

I downloaded the "LTE OnOff" app. Go into the app and choose the drop down menu under "Set preferred network type" and toggle between "CDMA + LTE EvDo auto" (4G when available) and "CDMA auto (PRL)" which is 3G. Good luck!

yes, but in this instance, I was on wifi for the majority of the day. I will do a test with 4G only and see how it does. Unfortunately, in my house I don't get a strong cell signal so I'm sure battery life will suffer without wifi activated.

I charged full then within 5 mins of use I'm down to 89%

I believe the phone stops charging after it reaches 100% even while it's still on the charger. So if the phone has sat there for a while on the charger it will begin to drain as if it were idle. I've noticed that myself. Have you let the phone/battery drain all the way down to auto shutoff then recharged to 100% to possibly calibrate the battery? Do you have Power Save Mode enabled in phone settings>Power?

If you have app killer set to auto kill certain apps, that will drain your battery faster then LTE.
