Public service message: Be very careful buying used/new AT&T and T-Mobile phones from PEOPLE. They may be under finance deals and you may end up with the phone blacklisted even months later !!! (happened to me)

What about the prepaid route..those providers use the big 4 networks. - Transfer # to Google Voice for lifetime safekeeping (free forwarding, web panel, etc) - Use an unlocked GSM phone that supports AT&T and T-Mobile properly (LG G3, Samsung G5?, Note 4?) - Change providers as u please

Re: Yikes! have you noticed a trend for pure Google devices to have issues that are never fixed? - Nexus 4: earpiece volume is a joke. bluetooth doesn't work properly if WiFi is enabled - Nexus 5: battery charge issues; poor audio quality - Nexus 7 (2012): flimsy LCD glass (cracked 3) - Nexus 7...

It would really streamline the data if you guys would post more complete logs to <10% battery and definitely show the screen on time as that's the most important factor here.. So far I'm not impressed by what I see especially as Lollipop promised to lower power consumption. I get 4.5 hr SOT...

Definitely factory reset / full wipe and reinstall ROM (for modded). Kind of sad to see so many Lollipop issues...

I thought Straight Talk only allows new registrations on T-Mobile, no longer on AT&T? Straight Talk Prepaid Cell Phone Plans and Details - AllPrepaidPlans.com

The MetroPCS $60 unlimited all plan is the best deal right now, since Metro operates on T-Mobile's data. Not sure if LTE access is included, though the HSPA+ is blitzkrieg. www.allprepaidplans.com/metropcs

- 1080p LCD up to 5" - Micro-SD slot - Removable battery - Incredible battery life - Quality audio hardware - Vanilla Google experience

The site has since been completely redesigned and covers ~20 prepaid carriers.

Prepaid providers are a dime-a-done nowadays since the main providers have been allowing MVNO's to reseller their services wildly. I found a list of the 10+ main prepaid providers and plans at www.allprepaidplans.com Hope this helps someone.

You should really go by "screen-on time" as it is the main drain source. I get about 5 hours on mine.

It would really be best to reset the device, or wipe and flash a custom ROM at this point.
