*I went into settings and disabled anything from syncing automatically. I went into the Google Play Market>settings and disabled admob (serving interest based ads)
*I'm usually up from about 8am until 1am and I use my droid to send texts, plays pandora for 2 30 minute drives, check yahoo and gmail (2 accounts) as well as play SImpsons tapped out and post on facebook through the browser and my battery lasts all day. I have a wireless charging pad I use when I get home.
*I search for directions using the browser and just like your pc, I get routes to where I need to go even with maps disabled....I don't use google music, instead I download mp3 apps from the market that let me rip free music. Anything that isn't on my list above can either not be disabled OR I have uninstalled it and I don't remember what it was called. I'm not rooted, I'm using stock 4.1.1
*I never use Verizon backup assistant...I backup my settings via google and I leave locations services off. I have not ran into ANY problems operating the device for directions, info, accessing the google play store nothing, this is by far the best device I've owned.
-Cheers!
