I'm new to all this but what is NFC and how do you turn it off? Along with the Verizon apps?I finally wore my battery down to zero -- total uptime: 26 hours, 17 minutes, with just under 4 hours of screen time.
Not rooted, totally stock, 4G, Bluetooth, GPS on; wi-fi and NFC off. Verizon apps disabled and S-voice on the lock screen turned off.
I did notice one interesting thing on the History Details chart. As the battery charge decreased, the mobile network signal strength also seemed to fade. Strange, since after the first three hours, the device was at the same location.

One of the worst things you can do to a Li-ion battery is to run it out completely all the time. Full discharges put a lot of strain on the battery, and it's much better practice to do shallow discharges to no lower than 20 percent. In a way, this is like people running for exercise— running a few miles a day is fine, but running a marathon every day is generally not sustainable. If your Li-ion powered device is running out of juice on a daily basis, you're decreasing its overall useful lifespan, and should probably work some charging stations into your day or change your devices' settings so that it's not churning through its battery so quickly.
NFC is near field communication. It allows the device to communicate with NFC tags, other devices, and some credit card checkouts through proximity/touch. It's off by default, I believe.
I disabled the Verizon apps by going into the application manager and clicking on "disable."
Can you tell me how to get your that setting?
