Well I noticed this over a month ago that the top of my LG Optimius M changes from 1x to 3g but ever since this change it kills my battery REALLY FAST. I use to get my phone to last about 15 hours or so because I have everything turned off and I'd just text but ever since this new thing metro does it kills my battery in less than 10 hours. Now if I play any app such as words with friends casually in a day it dies in about 7-8 hours...I use task killer after I use any app or the internet but I lightly use them...
I was wondering how much longer this will continue? Can I turn if off and just set it at 1x because my service is just as good as when its 3g...also is there any way to keep my battery from dieing like this? Or do I have to tough it out. I noticed one week they stopped switching over to 3g and my phone went back to normal battery life but now its back at it. One morning my battery was at 60% in 4 and half hours without using it once (just took off charger and put in my pocket)
This has become very frustrating and I almost feel like I dont have a smartphone because I can't use anything at all because my service is crap (obviously I cant complain because it's metro lol) but metro is causing my battery to kill under 10 hours which isnt even enough to last.
Any help would be great.
Thanks
