Anyone turn on advanced calling on Vzn?

I've been casually testing between global/cdma+lite and honestly I don't notice any major differences in terms of battery life between them. In theory it seems like Global would use more eat up more battery though.

Turning on advanced calling however, seems to have a boost in battery performance.

Wonder if there is any reputable results on it.

Global will eat your battery
Should be on cdma/lte.

Global will only eat your battery if you have no verizon service

What does global do though and why is it set there by default?

If you travel abroad, you will have cell phone service as most countries use gsm technology. When it is set to global the phone can pick up cdma and gsm signals with cdma having priority (verizon network is mostly based on cdma).

In essence it allows people that arent tech savvy to get service wherever in the world without having to change settings manually

So if I'm not going to another country I should just set it to cdma/lte?

^Yes.
As for the advanced calling, I have had mine on since day one and do not notice any extra battery drain. My battery is very good and easily goes the day. The advanced calling feature seems to make most all calls sound much better as well.
