For those who are complaining that the battery life sucks...maybe you wanna off this..

Go Settings > Accounts & Sync, OFF background data traffic. On this only when u want to download apps.

Last night ard 11+ it was 100%. This morning woke up at 7am was 84%. Before leaving house surf FB and web on it. In the bus was listening to music, play some video and youtube plus surf web thru out the journey until 9am reach office.

Until now which is 115pm, i still have 46% battery left. Which IMO, is already consider, not bad.

Disable background data traffic a bit too big of a sacrifice leh. I like my push notifications...

Just wanted to share how I squeeze the battery for more juice. I unplugged the charger at 11:30am yesterday and now at 1:15pm, I still have 30% left. In between, I read emails, watch 1 hour of mp4 movies, browse web for 30mins, accessed twitter, weibo and QQ. Video was played with moboPlayer and it set the screen at 75% brightness. Hopefully, I can conserve more juice by setting the brightness lower.

Most important is the display. Set the brightness to the lowest level comfortable for you. For me, I can live by with 5% brightness. Under the sun or bright lights, I set to 18%. I notice the brightness of the display doesn't change much between 1-17% but at 18% and above the screen becomes brighter. 5% might be too dim for many but at night while walking in the street or before bed time, its sufficiently bright.

Brightness at 5% is too dim to see anything. We are not always at dark environment, so the minimum brightness must be at least around 30%. Unless we are living in cave.

Share my settings:
Battery drop 6% over almost 6 hrs of standby

- bluetooth on
- wifi on
- 3G on
- all Sync off
- weather update every 12 hrs
- automatic time off
- timescape manual update

Data is the number one battery "sucker". You should only turn on either Wifi or 3G at one time.

You can see with 5% brightness? What are the apps running in the background?
