Battery Hacks....

bump this REALLY helped, so I figured to bump it since it was a noticeable difference.
Now I can actually use the phone all day.

When I tried the registry hacks all the values were already at 0. Does that make sense?

first off either go as items arrive if youre using exchange or every hour for manual. every 5 min is jsut gonna suck your battery dry fast. if you do as items arrive it only opens the connection when there is mail, or else go every hour. second keep bluetooth off if youre not using it. 3rd it depends on your service where you are, if youre inside with only 1 bar or a weak signal battery will die faster

ive had my phone off the charger 15 hours now with my exchange server as items arrive till 10pm and then every 2 hours 10pm till now ~3am, and 2-3 bars of service, and still have 50% left battery. made a 2 min phone call to check my voicemail and a lil PDA usage entering stuff in.

Please read what I wrote before replying to my post; otherwise you make yourself look like an idiot.

What I said was that I have turned off bluetooth completely, I have also turned off my VPN and internet connection (on the weekends) and I see absolutely NO improvement. I then said that on the during the week I have to charge my phone twice a day when using the VPN, and Exchange updating every 5 mins. Also as for coverage my house is less than half a mile from the nearest tower I get 5 bars in my house so it's not a reception problem.

Now thanks for the advise on the As Items Arrive I didn't know that but it really doesn't help me because for some reason whey I turn on as items arrive it doesn't work. It won't let me connect I have to shut off my VPN and then reconnect and set it to some other option for it to work again (which probably isn't a problem for this post). But needless to say I'm glad that it works for all of you but in my case it DOES NOT work.

I also want to say that I haven't done the speed hacks? Do I need to do this in order to get the battery boost? I thought if I did it would actually eat more battery and I want to stay as fcking far away from less battery tweaks as possible!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
