LG G3 Constant Data Transfer, battery discharge.
First off, I'm new to the forums, so hello!
I just got a new LG G3 a couple of days ago, and I have a question about data transfer. Every time I unlock/turn on the screen on my phone, it shows that there is data transferring on my wi-fi constantly. Either the upload or download arrow is ALWAYS going, and I don't want it to do that. I downloaded some apps for stopping processes, and when I stopped some (like PayPal, for example) it came right back not even 30 seconds later. I feel that's what's causing my battery to discharge so quickly. Yes, I am aware that my display uses a lot of battery power, but I don't think that it's using all of that power when it's off. I just charged it a little while ago, and it's already down to 97% from 100%, and I haven't even used it.
Some of the bloatware is pretty annoying, too. Like the NFL app, I have absolutely no use for it, and nothing will let me uninstall it. Same goes for the Amazon app store/suite, IMDB, and some others. The bloatware seems to be a bit of a problem as far as processes constantly running.
I'd just like some help to stop this, because coming from an iPhone 4, I never had any problems with background programs because there were no background programs. I find the battery draining quite annoying, plus the paranoia bit of being tracked, but I think that part is under control now.
