The Basics

 Use the Battery saver feature (accessed in the Settings menu) to control

data activity, Wi-Fi connection, Bluetooth connection, and power used for
the phone such as screen brightness and notification light.

NOTE

Allowing other devices to use your device's hotspot connection will drain your battery

more quickly.

To check the battery charge level

From the Home screen, tap the Menu Key

> Settings > Battery.

 The battery level (as a percentage of fully charged) and the battery status

(Charging or Discharging) is displayed at the top of the screen.

 Checkmark the Battery percentage on status bar checkbox to display

the percentage of remaining battery charge on the Status Bar next to the
battery icon.

 Tap Battery saver to view and/or modify your Battery saver settings.

To monitor and control what uses the battery

The Battery use screen allows you to see which apps are consuming the
most battery power. Information on this screen allows you to identify
downloaded apps you may want to turn off when not being used, so you
can get the most out of your battery power.

 From the Home screen, tap the Menu Key

> Settings > About

phone > Battery > Battery use. The top of this screen displays a usage
graph and below it, battery usage times. It lists all of the apps or services
using battery power from the greatest amount of energy used to the
least amount.

 Tap an app or service in the Battery use screen to see the details about

its power consumption, including either how long since last connected
to a power source or how long you were last running on battery power.
Different apps or services offer different kinds of information, and they
may even include options to modify the settings so you can reduce
power consumption by that app.
