Serious Power Help Needed: Does Bluetooth or WiFi Internet use more battery power?

Or attach a USB cable between the two. Really, I think the Wi-Fi is going to be (marginally) better on battery life, simply because you'll likely get better bandwidth and fast transfer rate than Bluetooth. If you're that worried about battery life, however, connecting the phone to the PC with a cable will simultaneously transfer the data AND charge the phone.

Has youtube gone back to the old miniplayer?

Ok just to clarify, please bear with me. Does the miniplayer (by which I mean the miniplayer that is present while you are still in youtube) you are talking about have resizeable with the pinch motion? Does it have distinctly rounded corners? Can it be moved anywhere on the screen?
Mine somehow always does when I wanna watch something on my devices.

Thanks!

Still, I'd prefer to use another method if it's possible.

5. use WiFi and use in-built Huawei backup App?

How to activate wifi calling

The built-in wifi calling allows you to have service with your regular number over wifi. The E911 address is a requirement so if you call 911 an address comes up- yes you can be anywhere since it's a cell but that's how it works. You register your home address and then forget about it, if you happen to call 911 from somewhere else just give that location.
There are plenty of other VOIP services that will work over wifi (Google Voice and many others) but not with your cell # and not with the built-in wifi calling app.
