    Tips for 4g battery life?

    So I live in a non 4g area and have had no issues with battery life. Was getting around 26 hrs. But I travel a lot and am in ny often where there is 4g and battery life is horrible. I'm talking 4hrs...that's not good. Went from fully charged to 75 percent in 30 minutes with my screen off. Any tips?

    Turn off nfc, auto sync, and drop screen brightness. I went 15 hours on stock and still had 50% battery left with moderate use on lte.
    -take control of your nexus experience: Make the Vzw Galaxy nexus your Galaxy Nexus. Fastboot oem unlock (to find out how ask a rescue squad member).

    Thanks true I didn't think about turning off nfc...I already have brightness low and I'll do the auto sync as well. Thanks

    This is a feature i love bout ics. I hate when stuff like g+ just keeps syncing when I rather it synce when I tell it to. Go into settings, data useage. Turn on set mobile data limit. Then pick something like 5 -7 gigs (somethhing u will not have to worry about you ever reaching and having your data cut out on you). Then click the app that is hogging data and you can disable or limit it.

    Thanks. Great feature allowed stopping background data while not on wifi but allowed while on it.

    Near field communication. Settings. More (under networks). Uncheck the NFC box!
