Restart the phone to clear the decks.

Yep, my Galaxy SIII mini started to lie about the status of data. No
Icon, settings dialog says it's off. But if you tried to turn it on you
still got no indication. Ignored it for a day then got an unexpected
low battery warning and guess what data icon was on and I hadn't even
touched the phone...

Disable non-essential apps from automatically syncing in the
background.
Turn wifi and GPS off, except when you actually need them.

And turn off data. Even if there is no traffic it still draws power to
keep the radio on.

And delete Facebook.

Depending on the version of Android, you may not be able to without
rooting the phone.

Yuck. I have a Blackberry Z10, and FB is just another application which can
easily be deleted.

Android would let you, but much depends on what your mobile operator has
decided to preload and "require" you to have...
