Battery life.....

[bonabob]

I know this thread is beat to death and I have searched but people get into more discussion and arguments then just the facts, as you can tell from my business thread, I use the heck out of my phone, but the problem is, Its always being charged, I mean this thing is on the charger at almost all times ( car charger ) mind you I am on it while its on the charger, but I noticed lastnight it doesn't charge unless I am off the phone, it will just hold the current charge and go no more.. I was at 4% lastnight and talked for about an hour while plugged into the car, after I hung up I got the message about the battery level again and still at 4-5%.

So.. What are these hacks I hear about? Do they "REALLY" work? I hear different things on them all the time.

What do they disable?

I really don't want to increase the thickness of the phone with the bigger battery.

I have beams disabled, I am not even using push email and I have the brightness mid level and have it dim after 10 sec.

Thanks.

**Edit, will upgrading to 6.1 really help?? Will it change my current programs like Ilauncher, and other settings I already have? Or will it just upgrade and leave everything the same? I don't want a thing to change.

Can I go back if say the new update from sprint comes out with the GPS enabled or can I just load it ontop?

Confused on what the 6.1 really does.I heard it helps with battery though and that is my issue.

yes they work. but they aren't miracles, maybe you should invest in a bigger battery?
