You nearly disabled everything... How can battery be draining except for low signal?

Poor or absent cell signal is always something to consider as a cause of battery drain, so it was worth asking.

I saw improvement in battery by using root uninstaller to freeze vzw contacts backup. And I stopped using greenify and condi.

i happen to notice that my phone was somehow running in global which can chew up battery life. I've switched it back to cdma/LTE. hopefully that should help.

That shouldn't make a difference (unless you travel out of the country or live near the border.) I'd be interested to see if you notice a difference, but I'm betting that your phone is running 100% LTE/CDMA now anyway. Unless you've seen the message asking you to connect to a GSM network because CDMA cannot be found, it should be exactly the same.

I remember that it was an issue on the Droid 3. Global would drain more on the battery than CDMA. I would like to think that this is worked out now and it is a non-issue, but I have no confirmation.

I'm not noticing a difference with global vs. regular. I downloaded Better Battery Stats but since my phone isnt rooted i get no details. A waste of money.
