I am new to Razr Maxx and looking for battery saving tips? I know can use Smart actions. What are some tips and tricks for battery?
Know how often every app sync's... example: Facebook, have it set to sync every 4 hours instead of every hour. Limit widgets... more widgets on the screen mean more battery for everytime you turn on your screen. One of my biggest recommendations is to have Wifi connected whenever possible... wifi draws a lot less power than LTE or even 3G.
I use auto brightness and my battery usage is great so far. I'm amazed at the battery life on this thing. 12 hrs 30 mins and still 51% charge left.
That's really really good, mine was first day yesterday but didn't get that at all. Outside of the auto-brightness, can you get specific please?
-email autochecked?
-Do you have a Facebook status checked? As well as that FB picture widget it automatically puts on a screen that updates the FB pix? Same thing for the FB pix on the photo album? (Later in the day I removed both of those)
-Smart Actions?
-Any other widgets?
-Much talk/text time?
-Any weather programs in the bakground? I had Weatherbug, but turned it off.
-Did you stay on wifi if at home or out and about? Or leave it on 3-4G?
I was setting mine up yesterday and playing with it a lot, that could have cause the battery drain.
Thanks!
Thanks for the input! So, are you guys on wifi or 4g most of the time?
Battery life is very important to me... I wonder how long GPS works on this phone. Screen ever an issue with you guys? And do you care about ice cream sandwich?
Thanks!
I'm on 4g all the time - nonstop. Primarily because I always have 4g, it is as fast or faster than my wifi, I have unlimited data, and battery drain has been a nonissue under normal use. Depends on your usage: For example, if you stream Netflix all day, that might present a battery issue.
I also leave data, background data, Bluetooth, and all gps functions enabled all day. Bluetooth enables me to transfer functions to my blackberry ?ar speakerphone and to my home phone. After 15 to 19 hours of use during the day, the razr maxx is at 30 to 20 percent battery. I have not employed any smart actions, yet, to conserve power.
I love the screen - no issues.
