My battery drains faster than I think it should.

Hey Everyone I just got the Motorola Droid 4 about two weeks ago. I have been using smart actions especially at school. It sets my brightness to 9% (not sure if lower or auto saves more battery) turns of gps and wi-fi and other batter drainers. I also switch to cdma only. And I hardly even use my phone during school but somehow after 6 hours Im down to 30. So im loosing 30% every 3ish hours.

Is this normal?

I also use a two battery savers one with display on, and one with display off with each its different actions.

Androids are notoriously bad with battery life. Carry a charger with you.

Heh yeah I know, I think my Droid 3 lasted longer, or not.

How can I get the most out of my Battery?

Pretty much:

- Turn off certain features when not in use (Bluetooth/GPS/WiFi)
- Lower brightness
- Make sure you close whatever apps you're not using properly

I think it's the same for any 4G phone.
