We don't have 4G, but I am worried that it might be pinging something constantly looking for it. Should I be worried about that? I have LTE OnOff, but I have had a couple of problems getting texts and calls when it is not in the default mode.

I had it on CMDA auto (PRL). It was working for a while then just a bit ago my wife was calling and she couldn't hear me, and she said she sent a text that I didn't get. It may be that there was something else wrong. Maybe I will go back and reset it to that setting and do some testing.

I know first hand, not having 4G does NOT drain the battery. I have no 4G in my area and have had this phone since launch day and my battery is fine. I even run live wallpapers and keep my weather and FB updating regulary.
Yes, my battery is pretty decent now, but I had to configure things a bit more conservatively, with less frequent syncing, no live wallpapers, passive widgets only, etc. I can go a whole day sometimes.
Gregory, thanks for that information, it is very useful. I retried the app and it seems to work fine now, but if there is a problem again, I will use that code.
This is the thing though we shouldnt have to do this just to get battery life. I bought the phone so that I can enjoy the widgets and the Live wallpapers that my iphone couldnt get. Sorry, just getting frustrated with this phone. I love the speed and really everything but the keyboard which is fine, well and maybe the screen, but those are things I can look past. The battery life though is something that I cant ignore. I may be going back to the iphone (worse case since I love being back to android) or going the charge route.
I agree that we should just expect the battery to work normally, and it IS a drawback. But, when you view the overall pros and cons, you still end up with the TB in my opinion. See my recent post on why I bought the TB and why I still would.
I have an iPod Touch and an iPad (my daughters), and I just can't stand iOS after having an Android phone! :0)

That is exactly why I switched to the charge. I wanted a phone that I could actually use the features and not baby it. Love the light weight, gorgeous screen and fantastic battery life. I can even enjoy live wallpapers !
