Has everyone turned off the GSM signal and set it to CDMA only?? Verizon has Global Roaming turned on as the default when you get this phone which is stupid since the majority of people will never use this phone out of the country and if and when they do they can turn it on. If you turn off the GSM radio you will get better battery life since the phone won't be searching for a signal that doesn't exist.
Turn of Global GSM Signal and you will get better battery life

Hi.
From any homescreen: Menu > Settings > Wireless and networks > Mobile networks > Network mode > CDMA
Cheers

Also, as some have done with the Pro, take the sim card out or turn it around.

Slightly off topic but I also noticed that the WIFI sleep policy is set to never. Perhaps "turn off when screen off" is better. To check, go to wifi settings then hit the menu key > advanced > wifi sleep policy
What if your living in the UK. What do we change it to then

O my bad, I'm not so clever when it comes to data networks. I thought I had to have it on global seeing as I'm not using the phone in america.
