How can i stop the Maps app on my android to stop killing my battery when not even being used?
Q. My samsung galaxy precedent's battery is dying very quickly and i only got it two days ago. It says that 98% of my battery drainage is because of the Maps app it came with. I can not uninstall it, and ive "force stopped" it hoping that will do the trick. I've not even used this app so it isnt because of usage. How can i stop it from killing my battery?

How to get edge on my straight talk phone?
Q. Hi, I have a samsung galaxy precedent through straight talk. it runs only on sprints 3g signal (instead of verizons edge like straight talks cheaper phones) is there any way i can make my phone get 2g sprint signals or verizon 2g signals? because 3g isnt everywhere and on my phone right now it either 3g or wifi or nothing. My phone allows me to add a new vpn without jailbreaking...thanks in advance.
A. it should drop down to Edge based speeds (CDMA x1) when the 3G signal is not supported or roaming.
