Oh no, I constantly depend on my device throughout the day so we want to make sure that your battery is working correctly NEWTMA, could you provide us with more details to this issue to better assist you? Is the device trying to connect to the internet when you text? Is this the first time this has happened? Have there been any recent changes to the phone?

NEWTMA, thanks for confirming those details. We will make sure we get to the bottom of this battery concern. Please share with me if your Wifi setting has been turned on? I have supplied a link to the steps to confirm. If it is on please turn off and test battery. https://www.verizonwireless.com/support/knowledge-base-215010/

Did you  disappear..lol..guess i need to go find a verizon store....i`m betting it has to do with the sub-par software in this phone..it`s always freezing up

Your efforts are appreciated NEWTMA, we won't give up until you are up and running. Is there any physical or liquid damage to the phone? The next steps will involve access to your account. I have sent you a Private Message to begin.
