Battery life

[djdonnyk]

This is horrible on my device. I have been using this new battery about 2 weeks now thinking out would help but no luck. Anyone have any suggestions?

Are you using an after market battery or an oem one? My battery life isn't great, but it's not horrible either.

Perhaps you have it set to update to frequently? There are many apps you can install to see what the culprit is, just search for battery.

Its a brand new stock oem battery. I just downloaded an app called advanced mobile care, it keeps my wifi turned off. For some reason it would always come back on after I would turn it off. I will give this app a try and report back. Thanks for your reply.

There is a battery saving feature that always turns the Wi-Fi on if it is turned off

I wondered why my wifi is always turning on? I thought that would drain the battery more when no networks are available?

I just did it, will this keep my wifi off until I actually turn out back on?

If its on, and it doesn't connect to a network it will shut off wifi.
If its on, and your phone goes into sleep mode it will disable it until the screen gets turned on.
If you disable wifi, it won't touch it unless you turn it on.

I am a big fan of Advanced MobileCare, too. You can set Customized "Battery Saver" mode to extend your battery life and set wifi on etc.
