Perhaps Verizon pushed new PRL's out to your phone, to tell your phone about some new tower they installed a block from your office/home. So now, your Q isn't always on 'set the transmitter to 11' all the time, thus saving you valuable electrons. I now realize I may be leaving out some key info. A PRL is the file that tells your phone where to look for cell towers. When you have 1 bar of signal, your phone turns up its transmitter to max brain melting power so that it can talk to that cell tower in south Bethesda. (is there such a thing?) Anyway, now that you have a tower on your neighbor's house, you phone can now turn down its transmitter to emit only tiny little peeps of signal. This saves tons of battery life. Or, its the result of Q himself. John de Lancie just made an appearance on the show "The Unit", so he seems to be back in town. So, I have a theory on the Q.
