EXTENDING YOUR BATTERY LIFE
Active applications, light levels, Bluetooth usage, and GPS
functionality all act to drain your battery. The following is a list of
helpful tips that can help conserve your battery power:
●Reduce your backlight on time.
●Turn Bluetooth®off when not in use.
●Turn Wi-Fi®off when not in use.
●Deactivate the GPS when not needed. Most applications using
this function will periodically query the GPS satellites for your
current location; each query drains your battery.
●Do not wait until your battery is completely depleted before
charging your device. Repeating this process of a complete
discharge and recharge can over time reduce the storage
capacity of any battery.
●Turn off Automatic application sync.
●Use the Power Control Widget to deactivate hardware functions
such as Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, GPS, Synchronization, or LCD
brightness setting.
●Check the Battery use screen to review what features or
functions have been consuming your battery resources.
●Check the Running Services and close any unnecessary
applications.
