The M9 is my very first smartphone. There is a lot to learn, and some very helpful people and information on this site. I have beem poking around in and out of the settings amd menus, and came across cell standby. I'm not even sure what it is and what is references to.
It seems to be the highest percentage as far as battery usage at 44%.

Is this normal, can it be adjusted, it seems my battery drains quicker than someone who really uses their phone. I really don't use it like most do, not much as far as social media, videos, etc.. At this time, some facebook, texts and calls mostly. Any info appreciated.
 
Cell Standby battery usage goes up if you have poor cell signal, because the radio has to expend energy to boost the signal. How's your signal? Go to Settings>Battery and check the battery graph to see how your signal has been.
