Any tips on how to turn the charging light off and/or improve battery life running android ?
Thanks in advance!
The light uses almost no battery. If you check the battery usage, it uses probably less than .1% of the battery. The best thing to do is to use a program like APNdroid and Advanced Task Killer. APNdroid will let you toggle data on/off from the home screen, which is great for saving battery (only use data when need to check something/receive email). Also, kill your tasks frequently.
