In location services what system services should be on for battery life. I have them all off apart from cell network search. Is this correct?
Got a tip for us?

Main reason why I ask is because it says cell network search has used my location in the past 24 hours...so wondered if this is affecting battery life

I heard if you're in a low signal area it'll search for best tower or some ****. Ima leave it off for a while if I don't notice any problems it'll say off

Well maybe that is causing drain while at work then? I have switched it along with everything else in the list...guessing thats ok.

If u have no service or are searching ur best bet is airplane mode. At least for me cuz mines in a locker

Nah i get a signal but it's on edge so i'm guessing im losing % due to it searching for a 3G connection. Although i only lost 3% in over an hour just now..guessing thats the best to hope for.
I moved my e-mail from fetch every 30 mins to an hour.
