Disable Always-On
Mobile Data
Always-on Mobile
Data allows your
phone to be connected
almost constantly for
things like checking
for new email and
Facebook updates.
Disabling it will mean
that you have to
manually refresh an
app to check for new
messages, etc.. But
you will save quite a
lot of battery juice.
!
Turn Wi-Fi Off (or
Have it Always On)
Following a bit of a
theme, turn Wi-Fi off
when you don’t need it.
Alternatively, if you are
usually near a reliable
Wi-Fi connection, set it
to be always On. c
Wi-Fi uses less battery
than a data connection,
and When Wi-Fi is on,
3G will be off. Go to
settings > Wi-Fi. Press
the Menu button and
then choose Advanced.
Open the Wi-Fi Sleep
Policy and Choose
Never.
!
Turn Bluetooth Off
A surprisingly large
number of people
leave Bluetooth
running all the time.
Quite apart from
being a bit of a
security issue,
Bluetooth will also
use up a big chuck
of your battery
power over the
course of a day, even
if not actually
sending or receiving
files. To turn off BT
go to Settings > BT.
You can also control
BT. You can also
control BT with the
quick settings.
!
Reduce Update
Frequency
If you don’t want to
disable Always-On
Mobile Data, you can
go into each app which
updates regularly and
change their individual
settings to update less
regularly. Where you
will find this settings
varies between apps,
but it will usually be in
the main settings menu
for the app, sometimes
under notifications.
You can also change
the update and sync
frequency of some
apps by going to
Settings > Account and
Sync.!
