    Help Green Power

    Anyone using Green Power now that Juice Defender isn't working on TBOLT? Ever since I d/l Green Power I am not getting any 1x, 3G, or 4G speeds. IS that because of Green Power? Can I change the settings to fix this or does it have something to do with my reception/Verizon network?
