2. Optimising battery life
Extend your battery's life between charges
by turning off features that you don't need to
having running constantly in the background.
You can monitor how applications and
system resources consume battery power.
Extending your phone's battery life:
Turn off radio communications you are not
using. If you are not using Wi-Fi, Bluetooth,
turn them off.
Reduce screen brightness and set a
•
shorter screen timeout.
Turn off automatic syncing for Gmail™,
•
Calendar, Contacts and other applications.
Some applications you have downloaded
•
may reduce battery power.
To check the battery power level:
Applications > Settings > About phone
•
> Status.
The battery status (charging or not charging)
and level (percentage charged) is displayed
at the top of the screen.
