I'm actually very satisfied with my phone and LTE. I LOVE the extended battery. I'm at 50% and at 12.5hrs.

Incidentally there's a browser BUG. When a browser window is open, and you go to settings, and tap on windows, you see a list of open windows. Each one has a red button with a - sign on it. You have to tap on that red button to remove that window...but on my phone you try to tap on it and you just bring up that window again, it does not sense your touch on the red button. Wonder if others have this problem.
Mines phone Idle and standy. I cant freaking use anything else.Mine shows "standby" as using the most battery.

Did you check what was sucking up the battery? I know that one of my apps (a compass) was sucking up the battery for some reason. I decided to uninstall it.
This battery is HORRID. I have to charge my phone 4-5 times a day!!!!!!!!!! I found if I turn LTE off it helps a little bit, but I shouldnt have to carry my charger around with my phone everywhere.
Any suggestions on how to make it better?
Trying to figure out if I have a slight defect with my phone.
I am getting decent battery life, but not great.
Currently I am at less than 50% (43% according to circle widget) with just over 4 hours of use. Screen on time of 1 hr 40 minutes.
This is with 4G disabled and a solid 3G signal.
What gets me a little concerned is in battery use, Bluetooth is tied for biggest drain.
I like to keep bluetooth enabled so I can sync to my car or headset at a moment's notice, but I have not actually used it for anything today. I always kept it enabled on my OG droid with no significant drain, and I've seen a few people post their battery usage on the Bionic showing the same.
Why is Bluetooth so huge if it's not being used?
I know I can turn it off, but I don't think I should have to.
Is anyone else seeing similar bluetooth behavior?
we can finally use live wallpapers now!!
is it sad that that's what I'm most excited for with this improved battery life over my droid inc?
I'm getting really frustrated with my battery. Its been running on the battery for 4 hours. I've been on 4g the whole time with good service (2-3 bars). I'm now at 60% with these stats:
Standby: 45%
Idle: 40%
Display: 8%
OS: 7%
I've barely done anything with it. Checked Facebook and this thread, thats about it.
Can someone give me some advice? I really don't want to return the phone. Would a new battery help? Extended battery?
