This morning I loved my phone.  Unfortunately, the battery was about dead by 1:30 and I had to turn it off, without really even using it that much today. Angry  I already got info on how to turn off the 4G to make better use of the battery life, which helped.  Probably would have helped more if I had done it earlier in the day (the battery was already down to like 15% by the time I did it).  Any advice on extending the battery?  I already did some research online, but there are a lot of hints, and I'm not sure what all will help. haha

  • I'll butt in. I have the same phone as Rebecca :)

    Here's a good article about battery saving tips - they're from an Evo specific blog, but most should work for the Thunderbolt too.

    I put mine on the car charger for the hour that I'm at lunch every day then it usually dies by about 9:30/10pm, depending on how much I play on it after work.

  • Hey!  Good article, Mink!

    I always keep the 4G and GPS off.  I also try not to keep too many pictures on my phone, I don't know if that has anything to do with it (it did on my HTC Hero).  Also, I have an app killer that I set to aggressive and it kills any program running every time I turn it off, that helps!

    My phone hardly lasts all day either.  I bought (off of ebay for $5) another USB charger that I keep in my office, so I just hook it up to the computer while I work.
