Any suggestions anyone?
Two things... first, make sure that you haven't installed any software that is connecting on its own. I tried out a travel app, World Mate I think it's called. Even when it was closed out, it'd turn on data every few minutes. Very odd.

But, if that's not the case, then yes, it does seem like data stays on indefinitely. Thankfully, under utilities --> tweaks, you can use advanced config to set data to turn off after x number of minutes idle. I stumbled on this recently.

I'm not sure if it's helped my battery issues though. Looks like I need to invest in a new battery. The "heavy" user that I am, I think I've burned out my stock battery in the last year that I've had the phone. Anyone have a recommendation as to where to buy a replacement battery?
