I live in an area that has NO LTE. Is there an app that kills LTE only and keeping 3G on?
What is going to happen with the phone set at "Global" in an area that has only 3G?
Will having it set at Global use more battery? With GB, I was able to turn off LTE and only use the 3G radio. I want to set my maxx to save as much battery as possible.You'll just have 3G, although the LTE radio will still be active.
Global mode enables the GSM radio for international roaming. In the U.S., it will have absolutely no impact on how your 3G/LTE radios operate. Global mode does not turn LTE off. The phone will act as though it's in LTE/CDMA mode.
