Battery Drain Fast & Heat
Symptom
Battery Drain Fast & Heat
Cause
A lot of opened background apps, or high screen brightness
How to fix
· CLOSE BACKGROUND APPLICATIONS
Close Apps that you don't need. Apps that stay active in the background use up a bit of CPU, which uses up battery.
· TURN DOWN SCREEN BRIGHTNESS
The screen is one of the most power-consuming parts of the mobile phone. Keep it as low as you can.
· DECREASE SCREEN STANDBY TIME OUT
The time till your screen dims out and gets turned off is configurable in most phones. Set it as low as you can go.
· TURN OFF 3G/GPRS/EDGE
Phones keep searching for 3G coverage by default. So make sure you disconnect when you're done browsing the web.
· USE BLUETOOTH AND WI-FI ONLY WHILE TRANSFERRING
If you only use Bluetooth occasionally, there's probably no point keeping it on all the time. Same goes for Wi-Fi.
