Use debloater and turn of things you won't use, Sync, WiFi, etc. Go into apps and battery usage and make sure nothing is running that shouldn't. I do that and use brightness at 50% and my battery is good.

Here's what I fiddled on my Verizon G4.

Question, are all of those 3rd party apps baked in from Verizon? Or did you install them but have them disabled and installed for potential future use? (If they came with the phone, wow, shame on Verizon... I wonder, do these tele coms install these 3rd party apps thinking people will use them or do they get some sort of $ or something for including them in their phones? When will companies clue in and realize that the less 'bloat' pre installed on a user's device, the better the experience... That's IF those came pre installed)

Looks like all carrier/manufacturer bloat. That's a fraction of my disabled list post root and freezing with tibu...

All were preloaded, and are apps I always uninstall , because I don't use them.

Sorry, I meant disabled, not uninstalled.

Wowzers. Then I don't feel so annoyed with my carrier for the 5 carrier related services apps that came bundled with mine :x

Yeah, that's pretty wild. The 815 has but a fraction of these pre-installed, and I didn't see an urgent need to disable any of the ones that came with the phone in order to increase battery life. I did disable the syncing of various Google services that I don't use though, that does seem to make a difference.
