Yeah I can't find this global mode what do u all think I should do? Maybe return idk...

Go to settings > More... (which is below Data usage) > Mobile networks > then to Network mode. Set to LTE/CDMA.

okay well I disabled global mode and set to LTE, but IDK about uninstalling juice defender seems like a legit app...

I tried turning global mode off on mine, and then could not connect back to LTE, had to turn global back on and restart my phone to get mine to connect back to LTE

Is this on the Verizon network. If so, I would try again...select LTE/CDMA, restart your phone, check to make sure it is still set on LTE/CDMA and see if it connects.

Just an update I timed it and after one hour of gaming with global turned off, data off, only wifi. I lost 24 percent battery after only one hour... Is this normal?

The problem is the juice defender may be killing system apps that need to run. So it wastes battery killing the app, the phone restarts the app, rinse and repeat.

Gaming with the screen set to high brightness (auto brightness sucks, use manual IMO) will kill the battery faster than any other activity.

I get pretty good battery life. Way better than my original RAZR. I haven't had to change in the middle of the day yet. I like this app it estimates battery life according to your usage. I would give it a try. I like the notification with the battery life.

Just say NO to Juice Defender.
It was proven LONG ago to not be of any benefit at all.
