Possible Battery Saver...

Hi everyone,

I did a quick search and didn't notice that anyone posted it but when I was going through the phone's settings, due to my battery life being poor, I discovered that the phone will periodically turn gps on. If you go to the homescreen, then click phone, menu, options, Click the services tab, then select location settings. It states that it will allow the network to detect where you are using gps technology. If you disable it, it will still function for E911, and it states you will just need to give permission to an application to use gps. I haven't tested this yet to see if Sprint Nav still works (I'm in an apartment building), but I just wanted to share with everyone incase maybe it could be part of the cause.

Have a great halloween!
