Battery tips
Your phone is like a small computer, giving you a lot of
information and apps, at 3G speed, with a touch
display! Depending on what you use, that can take a
lot of power. So, if you want to save battery life
between charges, you could reduce:
•
the number of videos you record or watch, the
amount of music you listen to or the number of
pictures you take.
•
widgets that stream information to your home
screen, such as weather ("Use & change your home
screen" on page 8).
•
GPS, Wi-Fi™ and Bluetooth™ use: Press and hold
Power
to open the Power key menu, then touch
items to turn them off or on.
•
Google™ app updates: Touch Menu
> Google synchronisation > Background data.
•
network speed: Touch Menu
Wireless controls > Mobile networks > Select
network > 2G only saves battery.
•
network searching: If you are out of coverage, to
prevent your phone from looking for networks,
press and hold Power
menu, then touch flight mode.
