Extend your android phone's battery life for at least 2 days.



Wouldn't you wish that your phone could last for at least a day?

In this article, I will show you how I managed to keep my phone up and running for 2 straight days!

Just a proof that I'm not bluffing, here is my Galaxy S II phone's screenshot:

I did not charge it for as long as 2 days and 15 hours.



Now here are the steps on how I did it.

1. Disable all unwanted applications.

When you first bought your phone, it came with some "free" apps that you may not necessary need. They are also known as "bloatware". My phone came with pre-installed Weather Apps and some apps that were installed by my Telco. 

I disabled all of them by going to Settings > Applications screen.
If you're not sure if it's safe to disable the application, you can ask me by sending your comments.

Here are some screenshots of the applications that I disabled.  I have disabled Social Hub because I don't need it.  I also disabled my Samsung account, Yahoo Finance, and Weather app.







2. Install Android Assistant 

Android Assistant is packed with a lot of features.   You'll be happy to know that it includes a Cache Cleaner, a Start up Manager and a Battery Saver.  You can now uninstall your existing cache cleaner and history eraser apps. :) 

Apart from having a feature that auto-boosts your phone memory, it also had a battery saver that you can customise. Screen display can really eat out your battery life.  Set the display time out to as short as possible.  This can set your display timeout time for as short as 6 seconds as compared to your phone's default battery saver.

3. Install Easy Battery Saver

Setting it to Intelligent Power Saving Mode is enough but if you are more adventurous, you can try the Advanced Customized Mode.

4. Switch off your GPS and Bluetooth when not in use.

This is basic.  You only activate it when you need it. Otherwise, it will just eat out your precious battery.

Once you have tried these steps you will definitely experience a long battery life for your phone.

  2. Hi teejsy,

    Battery Saver will turn off your wifi if it's not in use. If you have Viber of WhatsApp, I suggest you set it to Advanced Mode.

    Set the Traffic section to 1K/5S. With this setting, if your data flow is less than 1KB for 5 seconds it will shut down your network.

    I'm using Advance Mode and I can still receive WhatsApp and Facebook messages.


    Hope that helps.


    Regards,

    Paul
