Re: Texting and Battery Life?

Something to try:

HKLM->Software->OEM->PhoneSetting

Change "HiddenModeOperation" from 1 to 0.

Then go to Settings -> Phone -> Mode of Operation and set 1X only.

Try that for a day and see if it solves your problem
I thought of that. I'll try it.

Overall pretty frustrating
Yeah I know the feeling.
