How many times this happens to you when you need to make or receive some important call your mobile phone battery gets down. This often happens with me and eventually I counter this problem with three dimensional strategy which is reduce wastage, keep an eye and backup.
I will discuss all three in details:
First, How to reduce wastage?
Screen Brightness: You should set your smartphone brightness yourself because automatic setting keeps on changing brightness and needs more energy.Furthermore, set small timeout to save some battery juice.
Wireless Connectivity:
Even though some functions such as EDGE,3G, Wifi,Bluetooth and GPS are very useful,but these functions consumes most of the amount of battery.When these functions are not in use,you should switch off them.
Push Notification:
If push notification of your phone is on then it keeps on checking for updates. It makes use of data connectivity or Wifi regularly. Some devices has ability to display these notification with voice. These notifications significantly affect the battery.
Background Tasks:
By default ,application keeps on running when you press home button, moreover, this way smartphone functions multitasking but on the other side consumes hardware resources and battery. To get out of app completely, use task manager and close applications manually.
